  • Even the short sailing trips can spring a few surprises, coming into close contact with a submerged object while at anchor, sailing out to sea in a fresh force 5 I have a slippery spillage of washing up detergent and have issues starting my engine.

    I'm guessing it was your hurley 22 I saw in Eyemouth last August when I was staying in a caravan, look at you now well done, just bought a sadler 25 myself so back on the water also but can only admire you're type of sailing and admire it I shall.

    At the beginning of this video i was comparing the Way she rides the waves to the way Katrina did.
    The size and the long keel must feel so different

    Good to see our old stamping grounds, especially Kirby Creek which was a favourite since the oyster beds were discarded. Easier to access than Landermere although that used to be a regular overnight anchorage as well! Keep up the great vlogs please.

    You don't want to slip on it but washing up liquid in the bilge deals with any spilt diesel with a bit of water sloshing around, cleans well too.

    Had exactly the same engine issue with my Volvo Penta, always have a battery pack jump start thing onboard so you don't need to rely on them if its the worst. Also found once that I could swap them around and it fired up, so possibly also dodgy contacts.

    hi sam the stakes you are on about are markers for the old oyster beds a few years ago you where not allowed to drop anchor round there dew to the oysters there is a channel to get in and out at low tide keep to the left hand side it deeper there shows on your chart by the way we met at titchmarsh marina a couple of weeks ago on the westerly berwick cheers keep safe

    Kirby Creek is one of our favourite anchorages along with Landermere. Sam, you now have me racking my brain about stakes poking out? There is a bit of a landing stage on Horsey Island about halfway down towards Honey Island so maybe from that? Maybe somethings popped up over Winter! I'll ask about today see what I can glean. Good selection of tinned fish in Lidl, always good to keep a few on board.
