What a great escape even sat here watching you on youtube from the reality and hustle and bustle and madness that is going on in the world, loved the music also by the way, thank you for sharing your trips.
Love the sailing, love the music, love the pace. Hard to believe that weather was July! Also love seeing the other boats. All those timeworn skills revitalized! Somehow I think the little coves and harbors, stone seawalls and village buildings are pleased to have your dinghies sailing into port again.
Magnifique ! Toutes les navigations de mon enfance avec mon papa en une vidéo, dommage pour la météo aux Glénan, c'est si beau sous le soleil avec les couleurs des atolls... Merci beaucoup Roger pour ce beau partage encore une fois 🙏👍🏻😎
I love these ships they are ships , I am an explorer at heart and would love to explore the world with something so complicated but simple wow love it ,
Morning coffee and sailing with Rodger Barnes not a bad way to start out the day. Such a simple way of sailing about. Love your videos looking forward to seeing more. Much peace and love from northeast Texas 🤠
Hi Roger, I enjoy you videos quite a bit. I live in the US, but visit you side from time to time. I hope some day to meet you in person, and sail with you and your friends. I would enjoy that immensely. Thank you again.
Hello Roger. You are my inspiration. Im watching your for long time and totally change my attitude about sailing . I got for me and my wife Drascombe Cruiser except blue water bigger boat . End we are so happy . That is was very good decision . The sailing and life is about make less problems and try to simplify to get the most positive things . Thank you Roger. :-)
Thank you. Stress level of every day modern life raised by five minutes of world news this morning and then lowered back completely in a little under one half hour by this film. I think tomorrow no news and a re-watch of this video.
Thanks Roger, totally enjoyed your video. Love France from a new perspective, and very well filmed. You are getting even better with little titbits that make me smile and happy.
Made the video passage with you for the second time and it was as enjoyable and relaxing as the first. If you don't object, I may do it again (and again). Thank you so much for dinghy cruising and showing the joys of the smaller boats where my heart has always been.
Every time I watch your videos, i reach out and try to pull a rope to hold the steering wheel for a while, to wet my hand at sea, i think many like me will imagine the same thing, it's a big deal to carry so many people every time you go somewhere in such a small boat. Carry on Roger to (we) keep on dreaming that one day, some day...
Once again thank you for a fine film of calm, enjoyable armchair sailing! Having seen the Hobie I should not have sold mine last year. It could do as an exploration vessel... I guess what is driving you and the other lads are the passion and cameraderie of small boat sailing. One micro-adventure after another. Very insipring.
Hi Roger. Phil from Oregon U.S.A. love your videos. You do a great job. Your a true sailor braving the open elements as you and your friends do. No motor makes watching very interesting. Love seeing France and all the places I never will otherwise. God speed, happy safe winds. Au revoir
Put your waterproofs on and a couple reefs in your sail. All in all you looked like you had a good time. I think sailing feeds your soul, Roger. Thank you for sharing. It was a pleasure to see the different boats and rigs, really sailing, rather than just on a flat page in a book. Some beautiful boats out there with you. Thanks again. Texas Back again, Roger. I have missed you. Retired again X2, on a little river/big creek in the foothills of the Tennessee side of the Appalachians. Thanks again, from East Tennessee
Sailing da 🌞 sun set waters to a dream like place ,' Rrrr..... Captain dingy , this where every sailers hart mind an sole finds the wonder's of nature, an atmospheric colour's so inlightning,thanks
2 in one month, yay! Thank you. Although "Leave the past behind" is easier said than done right now, a trip into your present is always a welcome respite.
Your friend called you a Whiskey dealer :D I am discovering my country's coast through the eyes of an English man while sailing his countries coast... I love it, thanks.
That's the dream of dinghy cruising. Landfall in a tiny bay in green landscapes. Want that... This year. To me the best Creperie ever was in Lampaul-Guimilliau. Seems to be closed or moved, probably for Covid reason. Surprising low waves out on the ocean at this wind. Has there been an calm just before?
Hello Roger! Thanks for the video of your travels. I follow your maritime exploits with interest. I hope to join you someday. So far, this is only a dream. You have a good sailing boat. Good luck on your future trips!
You're crazy Roger!! Am enjoying every minute of your latest video. One minute sipping a scotch, and the next roaring along with a following wind! Not that they are related! You mentioned British Columbia and weather. It's not cold here in Vancouver Island, but a charming 22c. We gloriously benefit from the Pacific Ocean's westerly winds, and have clear skies, unlike the balance of the province experiencing terrifying wild fires. Even across Canada wild fires are causing havoc, not to mention California's fire crisis. I mention all this as your stories bring comfort and sanity in this changing world. Have you actually moved permanently to France? If you have, it appears to be a seamless process!? The stern mounted camera brings much enjoyment for me , as I miss my 22' sloop. An annoying vertigo condition doesn't help for comfortable sailing! Thanks for these continuing video gifts! Rodney Vancouver Island BC
Glad I’m not the only one who remembers (and likes) the original Swallows&Amazons film
I have never sailed. Yet, here I am, watching, and enjoying, a video about dinghy sailing.
Love this video and just realised that your commentary reminds me of Noggin the Nog (apologies to those under 60) - very calming.
Good connection Phil.
Postgate and Firmin’s Small films were a big part of my childhood.🙂
Noggin is a nice word 😂
I’m just half thru it, but this is my favorite video of yours already. Friends and adventures. I love the music.
living the dream - well done Roger. Lovely video as always
Roger, Only one word describes your work - Superb.
It's no good I'll have to get a boat and do a bit of sailing again.
Wahey, breakfast with another fine video from Roger.
I keep watching your older videos. Love the different harbors and dinghy diversity. Keep them coming. Love to you and Thanks!
What a great escape even sat here watching you on youtube from the reality and hustle and bustle and madness that is going on in the world, loved the music also by the way, thank you for sharing your trips.
always look forward to your videos, this was another great one!
Nice long trip with those cheerful lunch'ers comrades.
Joy to the world !
Roger just put out a new video !!

Merci beaucoup Roger pour ce beau partage encore une fois 🙏👍🏻😎
Marvellous sailing Roger. Once again you have kept my spirits afloat.
Hi Roger, we absolutely love your videos. My wife and I watch spellbound at your beautifully crafted films. You are an inspiration in so many ways.
I love these ships they are ships , I am an explorer at heart and would love to explore the world with something so complicated but simple wow love it ,
It’s the bonding moments that keep our friends stay forever 💖💖
Many memories of Pouldohan and Le Glennan. Thank you.
One of your best videos Roger
Another lovely film Roger,
Thank you 👍.
Brilliant Vidio. Very good little sea boats and experienced hardy
Sailormen. Thank you. Really enjoyed watching.
I live in British Columbia and between the heat wave and the fires we are roasting. Id love some southern Brittany weather right now. Take care
Great vid MrB, thanks for all the relaxing entertainment. Nice peaceful landing at the end there too, good skills. Cheers from NZ.
Roger you really work wonders in our souls !
I am not a sailor by any stretch but i live in a sailing community. This type of sailing appeals to me more than any other. Very nice footage.
Wonderful Roger. And the music was lovely. Thank You .......
Morning coffee and sailing with Rodger Barnes not a bad way to start out the day. Such a simple way of sailing about. Love your videos looking forward to seeing more.
Much peace and love from northeast Texas 🤠
Wonderful. Thanks for ‘taking us with you’.
Thank you Roger, for another splendid video.
One of, if not your best video yet, Roger!
Thank you Roger, a sweet and gentle little video.
Much appreciated, Barnacle Bern, SY Cadbri. 👍😎
You handle your boat like a 10 year old boy on his bike - in complete oneness. Thanks for a lovely trip.

Just as I have picked up the book The New Glénans Sailing Manual! A gorgeous film and great to put the Glénans islands on the map. Thanks very much!
Thank you. Stress level of every day modern life raised by five minutes of world news this morning and then lowered back completely in a little under one half hour by this film. I think tomorrow no news and a re-watch of this video.
Another gift from the man I admire.
What fabulous sailing. In my mind I was there for every tack. Thank you Roger, for allowing me to travel (if only in the mind's eye) with you.
The video was excellent, and your choice of music was beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you Roger for this video , a great souvenir for us !

Thanks Roger. Another inspiring video.
I needed that. Locked down in Sydney, slowly going stir crazy. Thank you, Roger.
I know, Tyler - I have family and sailing pals in Sydney. It's very tough for you all at the moment.
Thank you for the sail. Fair winds…
Roger, your videos are the best things on UA-cam.
so nice to join your sailing trip:)
Once again thank you for a fine film of calm, enjoyable armchair sailing! Having seen the Hobie I should not have sold mine last year. It could do as an exploration vessel...
I guess what is driving you and the other lads are the passion and cameraderie of small boat sailing. One micro-adventure after another. Very insipring.
Thank you Rodger, just found your channel. Ive a treat in store watching your adventures.
Hallo Roger i love your flogs wel done i keep folowe you
Another great adventure Rodger thanks for sharing
I went sailing to Le Glennan with family friends 56 years ago in a 420 sailing boat.. It’s changed a bit.
Another great video, many thanks.
Francois Vivier club by the look of it !

Always great music!
A very good film. Thoroughly enjoyable account of a great trip.

An absolute delight watching you sail Roger
Cheers Gray

Just watched it again , it's one to lift your spirits. Always enjoy your adventures Roger, from long away Australia.
Nicely done that sail back to the slip 👍🏻
Idyllic but not easy work. Great slow speed seamanship. Loved the song.
Put your waterproofs on and a couple reefs in your sail. All in all you looked like you had a good time. I think sailing feeds your soul, Roger. Thank you for sharing. It was a pleasure to see the different boats and rigs, really sailing, rather than just on a flat page in a book. Some beautiful boats out there with you. Thanks again. Texas
Back again, Roger. I have missed you. Retired again X2, on a little river/big creek in the foothills of the Tennessee side of the Appalachians. Thanks again, from East Tennessee
I love to follow your sailing. Nice video good comments and good music too. :)
Thank you. ❤ I'm a liveaboard on a tophat 25 and videos like these make me want to downsize again.

Oh to be out of lockdown and on the water again.......very envious, love the music, cheers Paul in Sydney

Lovely film Roger, thanks. The subtitles were very welcome too. Expert arrival on the slipway as well 👍
Fantastic choice of music man....love it.
Thank you for another enjoyable voyage.
I could see you remembering your parents while looking at that beach 💯
Hello Roger! Thanks for the video of your travels. I follow your maritime exploits with interest. I hope to join you someday. So far, this is only a dream. You have a good sailing boat. Good luck on your future trips!
Just absolutely wonderful. Thank you!!!!
A very relaxing watch. Thanks.
Thanks for the video, fellow earthling
Lovely in every sense.
I wish I had that sailing spot in front of my door as well. Wonderful sailing video!
Great video. Very enjoyable.

Great cinematography! Thank you for another beautiful video.
Safe travels
Beautifully relaxing as ever. Thank you Roger. As ever making the blue water look so inviting. 🙏🌞
Inspiring as always. Thank you.
I think its Pouldohan though, not Ploudohan.
