My pet hate, us hearing overnight campers saying, ‘oh I forgot this, or forgot to fetch that’, not once did you say it. You had all the kit you needed and no more, to be as comfortable as you could be, carry out all the ‘household’ tasks you’d expect to. You showed it’s really quite easily done. I’ve never seen that part of U.K. and don’t sail, but I just might get there on my bike. I do enjoy a bit of bike packing. Thanks for an enjoyable vid.
Thank you, and thanks for watching. I did write a checklist of items needed for various different scenarios, like just sailing or sail camping or sleeping on the boat etc., that certainly helps 🤓⛵️
@@sailingskismo I keep an exhaustive list, but it doesn't stop me forgetting to get the food out of the fridge before I walk out the door! I've taken to putting the car keys in the fridge with the food just to stop me riding off without it in the morning when I leave home!!
Seeing your GP14 takes me back! I had a full wooden GP14 in sunny Manchester where I sailed her at the local club on lakes around Bury and Blackburn. Then oddly enough you then sail past what looks like a Pandora 21 (12mins in) which was the next boat I owned in North Wales! Lovely to see the simple side of sailing again. Being on the water is being on the water! I'm currently in New Zealand enjoying boats of a slightly larger size. Great video and thanks for bringing us along!
Thanks for watching! I too have a fully wooden GP14, it is STILL in a state of restoration though and probably will be for quite some time. The new season is dawning and hopefully I can share more adventures with you 😊
Thank you for your excellent vidio I hope to get a tent fitted to my 17 ft half Decker so I can sail further and stay overnight. The way you organised and stored the hear gave me some good tips. Enjoy your sailing next summer. That boat of yours really is fast.😊
Thanks Simon, I've never been to the Norfolk Broads, really enjoyed it. I loved the church and I will have to try your banana and cinnamon porridge, cheers Paul
Thank you Paul. My food options are limited as I [ should ] follow a FODMAP diet having developed a bunch of food intolerances. It’s not easy! Thanks for watching.
Just found your sailing channel here. I’m a U.S. West Coast (Puget Sound) sailor.. it’s so different but interesting seeing a rather different waterway of rivers, channels n so on. So peaceful n scenic too. I do follow Paul “downunder in Australia in those large saltwater lakes there too. But hopefully now cruise video wise with you. At this time in life (age 78 yrs) I’m my sweetheart’s full time caregiver so my Monty 17’ is currently out of water until life changes so enjoy you, Paul, Roger n a couple other. Cheers n thanks for the Gorgous trip. Nick.
Thank you so much for your comment, very kind. I’m sorry to hear of your situation and I hope it improves for you. I will keep doing my best to document my trips of which there are plans for next season. All the best.
I really enjoyed this video, thank you for taking the time and trouble to make it. As someone who is new to dinghy cruising, I learned a lot. And on a technical note, your camera angles are interesting - from above, from the boom, etc. Lastly, thank you for not adding any music; a refreshing change.
There were many many more people living in Norfolk in the past. The black death led to the demise of entire villages. Then the opening up of the American prairies collapsed the price Norfolk farmers could get for their grain. Consequently there are many abandoned churches standing in groves of trees in wheat fields. I remember climbing the belfry of one such church in the late 1960s.
Thanks for the video. Very tranquil and relaxing footage. I’m looking forward to checking out some of your other videos. Cheers Chris @small sailboat cruising.
So wonderful to sail along with you and Skismo, this time through the Broads. I particularly like how you channeled Paul (Sailing Kate Louise), and how your thoughts on dinghy cruising brought to mind Roger Barnes. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing these trips with us, and I look forward to the next one!
Thank you for such kind and supportive words, very much appreciated. I’m pleased the videos are being watched and appreciated by like minded people, it’s a pleasure to make them. 🤓⛵️
Paul and Kate Louise indeed. 😁 - this ‘ Look how I sail, eat and sleep on my little boat’ format is really great fun to watch… we should give it an official name… let me offer: Dinghy Drift and Dine ( with hat tip to my friend GT Patch. )
Wonderful video. I had forgotten how quiet and peaceful sailing is in this form. My GP14 has been unattended for about 15 years and I am just about to start restoring it. Maybe I am too old to sail it now, but never the less, a good boat is always worth restoring.
A great little film. Thank you for taking us with you. Very interesting to see some of the kit you use and how you use it. The washing up section definitely had value as a 'how I do this in a confined space' piece. Thanks again. Al
Thanks, I’m glad it was useful. I wasn’t sure if I should include it as it’s a bit like telling people how to suck eggs ( as the saying goes ) Thank you for watching, much appreciated. 🤓
First time on your site absolutely loved. I like the simplicity of dinghy cruising and especially the idea of getting no where fast. The Norfolk broads are a wonderful peaceful place and I hope to be sailing there myself soon. Keep the videos coming best wishes Geoff.
We're looking at setting up two Wayfarers for a trip to Scotland next year. We're starting to plan early so we can budget, for space in diaries and gather boats an kit. We're planning on tent camping rather than boat, there will be 3 per boat, so space is going to be fun. So after years of racing, it'll be great to cruise instead. Enjoyed the video. Thank you.
@@simonwells2213 good timing! I’ve just returned from Scotland having spent 8 days on mine, living aboard for 8 days. Video will be out soon- ish. Dinghy cruising is quite special in my opinion. 🤓
Great to see your adventure.Thank you.Looking fwd to getting my gp14 on the water.Did you make or buy your boom tent? and sleeping hammock? Happy sailing.
Hi Christian, thank you for watching. I do use my Genoa, if there are times I don’t use it it is probably because I’ve got the camera pointing forwards and don’t want to block the view. I made the boom tent ( that was a learning curve! ) and my bed is an off-the-shelf camp bed, slightly modified to fit the boat. There is another video all about the bed and how I made it fit. 🤓
Oil spills are often broken up with detergents, and I read that the detergents may do more harm than the oil. Therefore I prefer to wash up without detergent when I can't have the washing up water go through a treatment plant, and delay washing up with detergent until I am home.
Thanks for watching, much appreciated. That’s a very good point you make, in hindsight I should have emptied my bowl in the field next to me or just used boiling water to sterilise instead.
Thank you John, you will enjoy both locations and I will try to keep them flowing. 2 more are lined up ready to go and I’ve just returned from a week’s sailing which should yield 3 more! Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated. 🤓
I think a large fishing umbrella would be very useful for you. You could hold it as you go along if it wasn’t too windy, and you’d certainly have some shelter at a lunch stop? Just a thought. Thanks for the vid.
Hi Simon! Can you tell me more about your boat please? Where was it build? I sail a GP14 like yours but have no info on the builder (suspect it’s from Zimbabwe). Do you have a video maybe?
Hi, loved it and subscribed. Intrigued by the camp bed ... what make was that? Also do mind saying what the cost of the week's membership of Hickling S.C. was and do you still need a licence on top of that? Cheers 😊
Hi Phil, thanks for watching, much appreciated. Yes you do still need to pay the broads authority to put a craft on the water there. I believe my week’s temp. Membership was £30 and the broads authority stickers cost another £27 ish. . Hope that helps:)
Hi, the broads themselves are quite shallow and can be problematic for deep keel boats. The rivers in between the broads offer deeper channels but are still only about 4m deep in places. Most smaller boats have centreboards that can be retracted. I have witnessed fixed keel boats get stranded as a result of going outside of the buoyed channels. It is an amazing playground though for nautical types 🤓 Thanks for watching.
@@TrumpAndKamila the broads are man made, a very long time ago and they do eventually connect with the East coast so the tides affect the areas closer to the coastline, further inland not so much. Tidal range near the coast can be up to 2m, further inland it is barely noticeable.
@@TrumpAndKamilathey were formed by cutting peat for fuel. Norfolk is flat as a pancake with rich "clay with flints" soil. The meandering streams were widened to help drain the soil in the surrounding wheat fields and the Broads were originally pockets of marshland called "carr" landscape that was excavated by hand for peat. The rivers are dotted with largely disused windmills. Wheat from the surrounding fields would be ground and bagged. The flour could then be shipped out along the canalised rivers on gaff rigged Norfolk punt barges to London or even across to Europe.
I have plastic rowlocks but I am changing to metal ones. I had to row against an F5 a few weeks ago and the plastic ones couldn’t cope. It’s probably easier to show where they are by watching my cruising dinghy set up video. But a quick answer is - I sat in the boat on the thwart and held the oars where they were comfortable for me and then marked the freeboard where the row locks needed to be. I then cut a thick piece of hardwood to use as a weight spreader underneath the freeboard and fitted the rowlocks. Hope that helps.
Morning, can I ask an odd question? I’ve recently purchased a similar GRP GP 14 and am starting to fit her out for cruising. Can I ask how long your oars are 😂 I’ve found some on eBay but it’s hard to gauge how long they need to be. Appreciate your insight and thanks for the great videos
Hi, thanks for watching :) My Oars are 7'6" and fit nicely under the foredeck/above the buoyancy tank. If I were fitting out again I would opt for an 8 foot oar. The 7'6" suits me perfectly for rowing but I feel they are 6" too short for skulling. Hope that helps :)
John C. Harris published a formula for oar length (Wooden Boat #240) that, he says, matches a wide variety of boats that row well. Length in inches = (Beam at oarlocks + freeboard at oarlocks + 9) * 1.34 Length in cm = (Beam at oarlocks + freeboard at oarlocks + 9*2.54) * 1.34 Shaw & Tenney suggest a formula that ignores freeboard and recommends slightly shorter oars which gives what they consider the ideal ratio of lengths inboard and outboard of the oarlock of 7:18 Length in inches = (Beam at oarlocks/2 + 2) * 25/7 Length in cm = (Beam at oarlocks/2 + 5) * 25/7 As far as I remember, neither of them say whether you should adjust for spoon blades versus long, thin blades, and if yes, to which kind of oar their formula applies.
