- Sailing vessel Tapatya. We get to Viveiro and Alanouwoly, to reunite Hazel with her boat. We make a major decision regarding our future sailing and I talk about future ideas for this channel.
This is the story of SV Tapatya, a self-built, Jay Benford designed, 31.8ft, junk schooner-rigged cruising sailboat. The videos are a week-by-week record of our adventures as I live aboard, sail and strive to find out just what such a self-built, low-budget vessel is capable of.
These videos take a lot of time and effort to make, in what is already a time-intensive project. Your support in watching, subscribing and sharing these videos is very much appreciated. You make a real difference!!

Nice one Tony and Hazel. Look forward to the reviews. Thank you!
Thank you too😃😀
Well done Tony and good luck on getting to the Med unscathed. Good to mix in some gear reviews going forward especially for those of us who watched the build 😀.
Thanks Chris. Yes, I think so too! 👍😃
Well done Tony and Hazel for reaching your goal good luck with your next goal especially with the orcas at least you have a good think about it see you next time 😊😊
Thanks Kevin. All the best! 👍
hi guys looking good .👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😄
Thanks Greg 👍😃😃
Ha! Your first mackrel, but not your last. Excellent catch, Tony and Hazel. I've been offline for a while and now I'm catching up on your excellent videos. What an achievement for you both to have come this far since April. I'm looking forward to the next chapter, as you cautiously nose your way south down the Atlantic coast, towards (I'll say it) Africa! Because it's in that general direction isn't it? Thank you for this video and it's wonderful to see Hazel reuntied with Alanouwoly. Cheers, Chris.
Thank you Chris. Africa may well be a long way in the future, although we are undeniably heading in that direction 🤔
That sounds like a good plan Tony. That orca pod is so menacing, I thought they went for the bigger boats, 40+, but what do I know? Thanks Tony for the tour!
Thanks Nena. No, I don’t think they’re fussy about boat size 🤔😬
When sailing the only real plan is to sail. All other plans are only plans. I don't want to get too deep here Tony and boggle your mind so I will just wait and see what happens next week!!!
Cheers Tony.
True enough, Tom!
Best of luck with the Orca roulette. You have a sound plan and it will be great to hear the gear review sections in due course.😀👍⛵️
Thanks Norman 😃😃
Tony, you can be really proud of your achievment building and sailing this boat. As well as the passion and spirit you have transmitted to your daughters !
Concernant the french canal and the Gironde, I beleve your second change of plans was not necessary. Saili g the Gironde is no big deal, people do it everyday (I have done it, delivering China Blue to her new owner). Tides are great, you can take advantage of the tidal stream and planning is not that difficult. Too bad, I would have loved to see you in Toulouse!
Fair winds anyway, to you and Hazel. Patrick
Thank you Patrick. Good info, but sadly, too late now. I’d love to go through there. One day perhaps 🤔 👍
Just paypaled a small contribution. Loved that video and look forward very much to the forthcoming adventures.
Thank you Johnny. That’s very much appreciated ☺️
shocked to see that you were at my hometown. I hope you enjoyed Gijón
Gijon was great. A truly beautiful town and super friendly people! 😃😃😍
I wasn't expecting Hazel's boat to also be another junk-rigged schooner!
Close! It’s a ketch. It’s a great little sailboat 👍
@@SVTapatya But junk!
Great video! Happy you made it to Spain. I hope your plans work out! Stop in Porto for wine tours in Portugal!!!❤❤❤
Thanks Melinda. Yes, we’ll do our best to see the sights 😀😃
Sounds like episodes to look forward to!
I hope so, Michael! 😃😃
Great video as usual and congrats on achieving your 1st key goal! I look forward to your equipment reviews!
Thanks Geoffrey 😃😃
Looking forward to all of the good stuff to come.
Thank you Hank 😃
If you visit Portugal, Nazare is beautiful, but the dining is expensive. Cascais is equally picaresque, but far more affordable, and only a short ride away from Lisbon. Be sure to try the 'Vino Verde'...
Thanks for the tips, Mike 👍😃
Well done Hazel and Tony. It's lovely to see you reunited with dear Alanouwoly - we are both enjoying her adventures and delighted that Tapatya has got you both to Viveiro safely. Much love.
Thank you Steve. Great to hear from you. Our very best to you and Sally!
Good vid, Tony,
Good to know you considered alternatives because of the Orca attacks, happy sailing and the best winds
Thanks Henk 😃
Sounds like a good plan Tony. I look forward to both of you sailing into the med, and your gear reviews 😊
Thank you Chris 😃
Fantastic!
Many thanks!
Un saluto da Francesco buona continuazione👍
Grazie Francesco 😃😃
Tony you will miss her
Looking forward to seeing how things are doing
I will indeed, Graeme 😬
Congratulations on your first significant passage Tony, to both you and Hazel!
It seems that Tapatya has turned out exactly as you planned and hoped for! Well done mate!
Thanks Bruce. Yes, I’m very happy with the boat, mate! 😃😃
The build, sea trials and sailing adventures so far have been great. The further sailing, and gear and systems reviews will no doubt be great too. Look forward. All the best Tony and Hazel
Thanks Rob 😃😃
Well done getting Hazel back to her boat and getting Alanouwoly back in the water. Best wishes for safe sailing down the coast to the Med. Looking forward to the system and equipment reviews. Thank you as always for bringing us along on your adventure.
Thank you Matt 😃😃😃
Such excellent work, Tony and Hazel! Enjoy the next leg! And hopefully you'll have a safe voyage, WITHOUT having a whale of a time, so to speak.
Thank you Roy 😃
Congratulations on your trip so far. Great seeing you enjoying the boat after all the work you put into it! I look forward to seeing more of your travels and videos on how your systems are getting on. (Particularly keen on seeing how the junk rig is doing/if you're planning some tweaks to it)
I was also wondering after seeing that ports mooring setup (and that you'll be picking up plenty of moorings in the future single handed) if it would be worth investing in one of those boat hooks that passes a line through a ring (Robship moor & hook?)
Thanks Sean. I’m sure the Robship mooring hook thing ia a handy piece of kit, but it wouldn’t have helped in that situation. It’d certainly be good for a single-hander trying to pick up a mooring though 🤔👍😃
Love your video's, shame that your going to be on your own now & Hanzal on her own, I'm surprised that you haven't done more fishing.
Thank you Robert. I’ll manage 😉
I’ve done a fair bit of fishing from Tapatya. I just haven’t caught anything before that mackerel! 😬
Nobody has died from an orca attack, but boats _have_ capsized by keeping too close to the shore in difficult weather (the Danish boat in recent memory). You seem like cautious sailors, so I'm not worried, just thought I'd mention it.
Boats are being sunk though. A fatality may only be a question of time 😬🤞
Congratulations on reaching your first milestone!
Thanks Robert 😃
Very thoughtful decisions…
Thanks Frans 😃
Hi there, Have u managed to get the trim tab self steering to work yet?
Yes, I’ve had some initial success, Phil 👍😃
@@SVTapatya Well I watch Wave Rover the guy you bought the plans from and he only got it to work just before he left USA to cross the Atlantic. His videos are a bit historic as I looked him up on Marine Traffic and he is already near the Irish coast. In the video I watched he was one day out from USA.
2261 Good luck👍👍👍
Thank you 😃😃
