I watch several sailing channels but i can say in all honesty thst when ever i see a post from Kate Louise it brings a smile to my face and i savor it like desert.
Fair winds and following seas my friend and thank you again
My pleasure Dave , glad to share the love, cheers Paul
Entertainment so thanks very much for your efforts and sense of humour. Happy that it was a good ending in the very end.
Thanks Ross,I had a great time at the festival. Could have done with a little more wind but that's life, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Ha ha- We’re just two lost souls of the same vintage Paul. Love the Floyd myself. 🌈
Great production an always. I enjoyed the little B-roll of still water, even if it’s wasn’t in favour with your plans.
Will hope meet you on the 24th up at Lake Mac. Will be great to share a fire. Can I suggest investing in an Oodie. It’s like a modern day Viking bear skin. 😜
⛵️
Ok, my wife has just told me what an Oodie is, I do have a Panda Onesie but that is probably not the go....see you at Lake Mac , cheers Paul
"ARRRRH, them's not 'ores, them's me wive and dotter!" Bummer about your keys, really nice video of the early morning reflections.
Glad you enjoyed it Paul , I haven't quite mastered the viking war cry yet but I'm practising...thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Simply Sublime, thank you Paul. Maybe you can learn some Pink Floyd songs on the concertina.
Aah now that's a challenge....and a great idea, cheers Paul
back there again. loved your first "viking" trip. Very good coverage of the festivities.
Yes I'm definitely going back next year, with a better Viking war cry, cheers Paul
I really do enjoy your videos and the concept of just sharing it with like minded people. - adventure on from Lac La Belle , Oconomowoc WI USA
Hi Capt, what a great sounding place you come from Oconomowoc....thanks for watching, cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise there is a group of us in the Midwest that do similar camp cruising. It’s great to see others doing it as well and is such grand splendor. If you you ever get the the USA … reach out - let’s go sailing!
And here was I thinking that Josh was the only boat that got towed!
aah... ha ha ,now that's not fair. Josh has a petrol outboard that he can refill . I've got an electric outboard that I can't- (unless you've got a very long extension cable). So I'm always wary of running out of power and never turn down a tow. The book says with 2 new batteries I can get 1 hr at 4 knots and 10 hrs at 2knots but the batteries are 4 yrs old so I don't like to risk it especially over 4 days. I am planning on getting a solar panel to top up the batteries though. Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
😆😆😆 Long time fan of your channel. I show your channel to all my sailing friends to show what you can do with a boat less than 22 feet long. But cosplaying vikings AND sailing? GOLD.
Hi Dave, well it only happens once a year....thank goodness. But I must practice my viking war cry, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
That looked like a fantastic time Paul thanks for sharing.
You have to come next year, cheers Paul
What a delight, to see Paul and "Kate Louise" out and about again, with Viking regalia, nonetheless! Not only that, but what a surprise... (wait for it)... I think I've found the Japanese equivalent here of Deb Potatoes! (Alas, not with onion, though...). I'll try to send a photo. Cheers and fair winds from Tohoku, Japan.
Hi Mike, yes I got the photo of the Japanese Deb Potato....now I need a photo of you eating it!!! Thanks again for your support, cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise Oh, good luck to all of us... ; )
Hi Paul,
Always a pleasure seeing your videos. Nothing like listening to Pink Floyd on the water. Pink Floyd is truly timeless music. I’m 70 and my son is 25. We both are fans. Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks Don....yes I remember listening to endless hours of Dark side of the moon....happy days , cheers Paul
great stuff Paul
Thanks Col, cheers Paul
It is beginning of summer here in northern California. I am trying to get my American 16 cleaned, waxed, and ready to sail. Weather has been glorious and the local lakes are full, after a winter of good rain. Thank you, Paul, for your videos. They inspire me to seek my own sailing adventures.
Great, I'd love to see some video of your lakes, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Im in OR, which lakes are you visiting? Im looking for some travel destinations.
@@olivei2484 Clear Lake is half a block from my residence. Lake Mendocino is about 15 miles, Lake Pillsbury is 25 +/- miles north. I kayak on Blue Lakes (8 miles) and Highland Springs reservoir (12 miles). Southwest 40 miles is Lake Sonoma. That is about as far as I range. Lake Tahoe is too far and too busy. Lake Oroville and Lake Almanor are more than I want to drive. I stay close to home because these local lakes offer everything I want.
@@galerae947Been by clear lake, years ago, pretty. Thanks for the details. Hope to make Whiskey (?) Lake one year.
Thanks for another great video Paul! I always like your videos from STGB as they bring back fond memories of launching from Basin View and enjoying the uncrowded conditions. Looking forward to the next one!
Hi, yes St Georges Basin really is a secret. I was very surprised not to see more on the water....I know it's winter but the weather was fantastic. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Paul, the definition of a gentleman is: someone who can play an accordian, but chooses not to.
Having said that, I look forward to hearing the dulcet tones of your concertina in a quiet anchorge at sunset.
Well it will be a while before a public performance! Getting the brain to talk to the fingers in the right order and timing is always a challenge...but I'm enjoying it, that's the main thing.Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
It's funny but a lot of my friends say my best concertina playing is when there's no one else about, even the cat gets up and leaves! I'm sure that you'll love it though, I certainly do. Great viewing, thank you.
Skegness
Well I can only get better......actually it is great fun, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Looks like a great time was hsd. Thanks for taking us with you. Looking forward to the next raid.
Hi Malcolm, I'm off to Lake Macquarie today for another Raid and this time there is rumoured to be 20 boats coming....and it's winter. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I love your Viking helmet, historically correct. I love your posts and the way you extract fun out of life. Keep it up.
Regards, Bill
Thanks Bill, well life is too short not to have a laugh. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
First time watching sailing Kate Louise, loved it and those sunrises WOW!
Hi Paul, well thanks for watching. I try and make a video a month, depending on the Raid get togethers. Raid Sydney is a group of small(ish) dinghies that go cruising together. Next week we have 10 boats going to Lake Macquarie, keep an eye out for that one, cheers Paul
Another sublime trip, thanks Paul. I was hoping to make the upcoming Lake Macquarie raid, but my daughter is home from overseas. Hope to catch soon.
No worries Rob, catch you on the next one, cheers Paul
Another great show Paul , the Viking weekend looks like a lot of fun .
Yes Steve it was fun, if your ever nearby worth a visit, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Nice work again. Always happy to offer a thumbs up and a comment to promote your good work and the joys of dinghy cruising! I am not going to say I will see you on the water soon, but I live in hope!
Thanks Rob....would be great to catch up again we had a lot of laughs around the campfire last year, cheers Paul
Beautiful sunrises
N sets panoramic Paul. Love 💕 the sound of morning burping coffee. Looking forward to the up country raid in couple week Mate. Cheers 🥂 Nick
Thanks Nick, cheers Paul
I thought it was pirates saying "Arrrrgh"?
Never mind. Good video as always!
Love from Denmark
Yes it was pirates, I couldn't muster a viking war cry....I'll practice that for next year, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I’m watching ! Sleep after I watch. Cheers n stay warm Mate … Nick.
Enjoy! cheers Paul
Very quiet sailing! You still made the best of it. Good to catch up. Josh
Thanks Josh, see you at Lake Macquarie, cheers Paul
Top quality video Paul. Very jealous of the boat parade, looked like a time! Take it easy friend
Hi yes it was great fun, hopefully we can get more boats next year. thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Go the Floyd!
Yes, music now is just not the same, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
They say that learning new things is the key to staying young. 🙂
That's what I'm hoping....thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Oh wow, Christians Minde. Had many family holidays at that place as a kid 40 years ago. Must get back to have a look down there. Where did you camp the night on St Georges basin with the fire place?
One tree bay....there were 2 other groups camping along the shoreline but lots of room. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
ARRRRR! another enjoyable video and thanks again. Do you wear thermal base layers in winter? I love the Rab powerstretch, so cosy, and keep you warm even if they get wet.
I did have thermals on at night...daytime not too bad but cold when the sun goes down. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Never mind about Roger Barnes and pretty French ports, you won't be finding any fish & chips there: well, in places you can actually, but they don't quite hit the mark😀
Thanks again Neil, what we miss in little towns, we gain in weather and great waterways to sail off of the ocean, cheers Paul
Beeing from the land of the vikings I may say, if everyone drop the horns and add a noseguard on their helmets it might be a bit more historicly correct.
What can I say Anders, we are only poor copies of the real thing.....but we still had fun. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I really have no idea where that ridiculousness came from. There is not a single example of a Viking helmet with those stupid horns.
Loosen up, you pedantic people, they were having a bit of fun.
@@RustyKnorrIt is a mix up, horns were used to drink from and helmets for battle.
No matter how I'm feeling by the end of your videos I always have a smile on my face. Thanks for sharing.
I'd like to know more about your friend John's self built boat. But with his heavy aussie accent even the closed captioning had no idea what he was saying. Could you let us know what kind of boat that was?
Hi John's boat is called an Argie15 and they were very popular in South Africa. Named after the Argie newspaper, you could get the plans and build from 6 sheets of ply. Thanks for watching again, cheers Paul
Dear Paul i hope you did not get hurt .I am just want too tell you and your friends glue some shag pile carpet on the sole of a pair of crocs NO more slip.
Wow now that's an idea Iv'e never heard of, cheers Paul
I'd like to know your recommendation for a light E outboard. Yours looks pretty good.
My boat is small at 9' 6".
Hi Peter mine is a 10 year old Torqueedo 801, the newer version 1103 has a led readout with power, distance and duration left which is really useful but not cheap at Aus $4000. Why not try a small fishing electric outboard, but make sure it can give you 3/4 hp to get you out of trouble if it turns nasty, cheers Paul
I bet you couldn’t win a meat tray tied up on a river in France 😀
Ha ha, how true....thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I empathise with the boat launch. The first time I put the Pamela B in the water after Pam died I felt my feet start to slide and it all seemed to be in slow motion. I thought “I’m going to go right under here” and almost in slow motion under I went and I ended up flat on my back about 18 inches underwater. Didn’t crack my skull fortunately. I made so little splash that not a single one of the 30 or so people around the ramp noticed until I walked past the dripping wet. Pam had only died about 4 days earlier and for the next few hours all I could hear was her screaming laughing.
Hi Mark was it winter though?...Thanks for watching see you at Lake Macquarie , cheers Paul
Cry Havoc, and let slip the dogs of war! ⚔️
Or spend a lot of time on fancy hair do's and make up...the Vikings were also very crafty. Alas my Viking cry was a bit pathetic, I will try and do better next year....promise, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Perhaps an underfloor radiant heat mat for the cabin on a leisure battery would be helpful for winter cruising?
Now that's an idea I hadn't thought of, I could also take an electric blanket. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise yes, they make waterproof mats that don’t need to be imbedded. They can be used under vinyl, etc. low voltage as well
Floyd and sailing go together like eggs and shrooms for breakfast, man. Yeah +7 not cold in Scandi land, but when it hits +22 most start complaining its too hot. Acclimatization is everything.
Sorry I didn't master a proper Viking cry....more of a pirate argh! Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
Haha Pink Floyd - my era too mate (obviously). Any thoughts about a heater for the boat or is that too extreme?
Hot water bottle next time or rum....I think , cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise maybe both.
What is that boat the Aggie? The most boat you can build with 6 sheets of ply.
Argie 15 was a boat plan you could buy in South Africa from the Argie newspaper, a bit like the Mirror dinghy story and the daily Telegraph in the U.K.. It claimed to be the largest boat you could build from 6 sheets of ply (minimal waste). Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Scrambled eggs and mushrooms ❤. No fake bacon?
By the way, love these films! Please keep them coming.
Yes, sorry no fake bacon this time....I do like mushrooms for breakfast though. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
sea shanties in the near future?
well only if I can remember the tunes without sheet music.....Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
What’s with the pirate “Arrrr” at a Viking festival? 🤦♂️
Yes I know my bad, I couldn't muster a viking call on the day...but I'm open to suggestions, cheers Paul
Not a proper Viking ship in sight, disappointing.
oh well we tried....some say that the viking helmets with horns aren't authentic viking either. But we had a great time , thanks for watching, cheers Paul
