1700miles in a Speedboat - Part 6 - Scilly Isles
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Continuing our circumnavigation of the UK we embark on an expedition to the Scilly Isles, 30 miles off the coast of Lands End.
We're attempting to take our tiny 4meter Avon Searider rigid inflatable boat around the coast of the UK. It's taking a long time but you can't rush a good adventure.
We start our journey at Cockwells, a luxury boatbuilder near Falmouth where Tristan gives us a tour of the boatyard:

After a race with a Shakespeare 610 and a Phantom 16 we head to Tremayne quay on the Helford river.
From there we round the Lizard and head on a 40miles out to sea adventure to the magical blue waters of the Isles of Scilly.
Eventually it's time to head back, round Lands end and turn North towards the North Cornish coast.

This series is like a best buddy that lives on the other side of the world. You don’t get to see it often, but you’re always glad when it shows up
Harry, beautiful cinematography. I’m learning a lot about the UK coastline and enjoying every bit of it. And Charlie, what an awesome travel companion. Hopefully you show up in future vids. Thanks for sharing this fantastic adventure.
Charlie is the gift that keeps giving.
Best adventure series along with Geowizard's straight line missions 🥰
They should do a collab. Although its not hard to cross an ocean in a straight line
totally agree
There are very few youtube channels that make me feel this happy, this year. Thank you Harry! I love this adventure.
Yep I'm sat here watching the whole thing with a gormless smile on my face 😂
This beats terrestrial tv any day .
Just out of interest...what are the other channels you have been watching...always nice to get tips 👍
Agree 100% . Well done Harry this is excellent.
@fastasfox Steve Wallis the original stealth camper.
Harry, you are the best ambassador for how beautiful people can be, how wonderful the world a few miles away can be if we just venture further. Thank you for your vlog’s, I’m packing a bag, see where my travels take me . 🇨🇭🤘
I love how you ALWAYS capture the local RNLI boat, whenever you can. A chat with Falmouth crew member, too. Thank you, from RNLI crew.
Such a nice series, excellent job Harry (watching it in Florida)
This episode quotable quote. " I don't get scared of things but I think that's due to the lack of intelligent insight!" Charlie
I’ve never commented on a UA-cam video before, but I feel compelled to. Harry, your films are so heartwarming, so delightfully bonkers, and the perfect form of escapism, particularly during these crazy and horrible times. You’re doing more to improve thousands of people’s mental health than you probably realise. Keep up the good work!
Me and the kids absolutely love this series. Have watched the boat refurb series as well. Stumbled across this channel when looking for videos about the sea forts in Thames Estuary, when I was planning to visit on my jetski.
Seeing longships lighthouse was amazing, my grandfather was a lighthouse keeper on longships lighthouse in 1957 with the family living in the cottages on the cliffs, my Nan used to stand against the white wall of the cottages and do semaphore to my grandfather on the lighthouse whilst he would watch with his binoculars, the equivalent of today’s texting I guess.
Then you end up in St ives where my aunty lived for may years right on the seafront before it became a tourist attraction.
So many memories.
Cracking show, been following all along, stay safe.
I grew up on a small lake in Virginia, USA- constantly boating as a teenager. Not until I was in graduate school did I decide to "circumnavigate" the lake as an adventure- thick cypress trees made some parts very difficult to get around. This vlog reminds me of that exact spirit. For boaters this spirit is quite universal. Thanks for the refreshing take on your channel.
This sort of content is what you tube was made for
This ones my favourite episode so far love the humour crisps n ciggs for tea love watching your adventures it's awesome
This is the kind of thing that should be on TV.
The notification I check for every day- Harry is back!
27.43 that's me and my good friends, Mick Lister, Simon and Jane Crowther. We had a stunning week of weather having had a cracking sail over from Falmouth. It was good to meet Harry and his friend. Great series.
Always so good to see these videos pop up in the notifications. Loving adventuring with you. You nutter.
Said it before but will say it again, a bloody top notch series Harry! Hats off to you.
These are some of if the not the top best series of videos I have ever watched on YT ! The semi-haphazard adventure, the banter between the sailing partners you have on board and the strangers you meet along the way, the interesting facts about the british coast. Not to mention the professional videography by means of GoPros, main camera, drone footage, stop motion map visuals. All absolutely brilliant !
I’m sea kayaker but I’m really getting into this series! What a likable pair of fellas!
Brilliant ,Fantastic photography,drone footage and commentary keep up the good work👍
Those retro boats were a joy, and enjoyed the tour of the boats being made. What a great video and a fabulous adventure- I’m so jealous. The Ilses of Scilly are amazing
The further you go, the more I realise quite what a complete and characterful document of our coastline this will be and I can't think of an equivalent! Really appreciate the balance of history, adventure and larking about!
I can safely say following thousands of videos watched on UA-cam, on numerous genres, this series is by far the best.
What we’ve been waiting forrrrrr!!!!!! Love this soo muchhh
Tresco is my favourite place on Earth, been there many times, as a working musician ive travelled all over Europe Ireland & USA.... but Tresco its amazing if you want to chill , no cars, one shop. one pub... heaven on Earth scenery
I have a 1971 14 FT. Sidewinder in Purple with metal flake ...powered by a 1971 Mercury 80 H.P. 2 stroke .. so this is right up my alley seeing your Phantom 16 boat.
There are some excellent travel/comedy/history/documentary type channels and shows out there, but honestly I think I'm most interested in this series. Wonderful blend of personalities, history, travel, adventure, snacks, and a grand mission of circumnavigation. Hard balance to strike, but you've certainly done it. It may take a long while to finish, and I'm fine with that, I don't want it to end. Also excellent stop motion and music...and really great travel companions... hard to name all the positives!
Absolute Goldmine of a series, can’t wait for the next leg of the trip . Bucket list stuff 💯
Great video as always Harry, you’ve got me into boats big time. I purchased a new Honwave at the end of last year and now I cant stop researching Bayliner boats! 😍🚤
I’ve just sold a Bayliner 185 and had four brilliant years on it so don’t listen to Donny. Of course there are better boats out there but for an entry level first boat, you can’t go far wrong.
of the episodes published so far this is my favourite
Amazing episode! Scilly looked so dreamy, almost made me consider moving back to England! Incredible work Harry, really enjoying these!
Your videos are always so much fun - they just make me smile! And wow, the Isles of Scilly are beautiful!
good quality films like this are like a good book.
And the adventure continues . Great to see a new episode.
I've just stumbled over your series Harry. From a yacht owner, this is fantastic, much better than anything on TV. Hope you've got more adventures planned. Cracking work 👏👍⛵🏴☠️
Well done Harry, this is a truly excellent series, can't wait for the next one!
Vraiment Génial cette série ! vivement le prochain épisode !
Approachable and hugely addictive. Curiously more interesting than large scale expedition sagas and the multitude of fake survival dramas. These are real people (i assume!) who not only enjoy themselves but make mistakes and admit their feelings. For me this is by far the best use of the utube format, quite wonderfully done. Some sort of award would be well deserved for the whole production crew. Superb ...!
Absolutely fantastic, should have been a tv series. Ive watched every episode so far and always look for to the next
How could anyone not like this video? It's just pure joy!
What a dream to go to the Scilly Islands on your own boat. Brilliant.
My absolute favourite UA-cam channel, so good to see a new video 👍🏻
Omg that was the best one yet (no pressure for the next one then) brilliant mix of filming, random commentary and shenanigans.
EASILY the best thing to watch on UA-cam these days. Thanks Harry and back by popular demand Charlie, Mr Happy-go-lucky, even without his strides!
The sandbar really lifted my spirits also! Thanks for that.
I’m a sailor , I live the other side of the world to you Harry, but I just love your episodes ! Should be a TV series ! Thanks so much for posting this latest video, fabulous
Best UA-cam channel by far. This is the one I look forward to 👍
Thanks Harry, this is probably the best thing on UA-cam
Absolutely fabulous!!! These are so fun to watch. They have such a theme to them with music and editing. Thanks for bringing us along.
Its Harry time again 👍👍👍👍👍👍been waiting for this so badly, excellent 👍👍👍
Only just found for your video’s Harry been watching all weekend and never enjoyed UA-cam so much,what you have done is something on my bucket list but after you showing off are stunning coastline my barge is going up for sale and buying a sailing yacht.Keep your car videos coming to Harry brilliant👌🏻
Love seeing a new video. What a journey.
'The Finger!'
I fucking love this series, it tickles my sense of adventure and inspires my to do more with my life every time I watch.
I just love this adventure you guys are taking. I am So envious. Beautiful scenery every where.
This is fantastic. Well done tiny boat
Hi Harry. Love the show. Great footage and information of your travels.
*Hi Harry! I've watched this whole series a couple of times now and it even spurred me on to buy a tiny boat of my own! The Taurus is a 14ft 'day boat' built by Carrick Marine here in Cornwall and she has a 25hp Mariner. Unfortunately that's just about all I know about her. She looks like a Falmouth Bass Boat but has a jockey seat / console. Hopefully I'll have her back in the water very soon and have got a mooring near Penryn. It's a steep learning curve (as I know nothing about boats) but I can't wait to explore the coastline here in Cornwall. Anyway, thank you for the inspiration! Mark*
Absolutely brilliant Harry! Thank you to you and Charlie for sharing the adventure!! It’s motivated me!!
Well done guys, it's just keeps getting better and better. Fantastic footage, beautiful beaches and a bit of comedy to boot. 👍👍👍
Brilliant... absolutely brilliant. Can't wait for part 7 my friend.
This is quite the adventure so far. I can wait to see the next episode. Although I am a little jealous, I must admit.
Your series is captivating me.
The local tourism council must love you. What beautiful beaches and clear water.
And I'm a beach snob, having grown up on beaches of the Pacific Ocean. Well done, lads!
By far one of if not the greatest series I’ve seen! Absolutely brilliant and what genuine guys. Restores my faith in humanity. When will the next instalment be?? Literally Can’t wait!
Yay! I was looking forward to the next part.
Absolutely bloody brilliant.
Isn’t it funny how our minds play tricks on us. Being in a tender 15 miles out to sea with the mother ship nearby doesn’t seem a fuss. But being in a tender 15 miles out to sea without anything nearby is a bit daunting.
Cheers from Hawaii.
Really enjoyed, thankyou so much. Long story short I had a spot of ill health at the end of 2019 still recovering but this has put a long since missing smile on my face. Thankyou and please keep them coming when you can.
Your videos are incredible Harry, this adventure should be on TV, such a professional job, keep it going!!! 👏🏻
Great stuff chaps!
This seems like a fun way to get to know the circumference of something. I love that you're doing it pretty much on road-trip food. Great videos Harry! Thank you for taking the risks.
This is the 6th-7th time I have watched this and each time i have willed Charlie on to stand up on the wakeboard 😁
I look forward to these so much! Such an epic journey!
Awesome series gents, I'm shopping for my own Avon to refurbish now! I've linked this series to all my mates
Hands down the best thing on UA-cam.
Another fantastic video!! Stunning locations. I find these videos just pure relaxation.
Loved your film of this part of the world. Its my old stomping ground. Watched all your other episodes after this one. Im tempted to hire a rib next time im back in the UK and have a mini adventure. Look forwards to the rest of your journey. Good luck and thanks.
Great video boys! Like the combination of factoids, locations, people misshaps, boat updates and clear evidence of you real fun!
'Speedboat Cruising' got me pulling some 80's moves!
It’s always a good day when a new episode shows up.
the guy who gave you water is one of the harbor masters in penzance harbor, really friendly and a great person
Fantastic watching! Marvellous adventure, beautifully filmed and edited. Thanks!
Really enjoying this series. Very envious of your adventure!
I absolutely adore the Scilly Isles, only been there once as a kid but it's gorgeous. I need to go back it's not even that far from me but it's quite pricey to get over there.
Great video been watching from start of your journey keep up great work can’t wait see more videos very soon
Wow! What an absolutely amazing adventure you guys are having! Hats off to you!
I’d love to do something like this.
Stay safe, looking forward to the next episode.
John
Best series on youtube, you deserve an award, many of them. Also, RIP the trousers and belt.
This is probably one of my favourite series - banter, entertainments, humour and some geography/history thrown in for good measure. Awesome stuff 👍😎🇬🇧
Another fantastic video charting your epic adventure!! Can’t wait for the next instalment.
This is looking like it's going to be a 42 part series and I am on board for all 42 parts. Keep it up!
so great when I see a new episode pop up. Really enjoy the adventure and the camera work, looking forward to the rest..
Thank you so much Harry for a ray of beautiful sunshine in an otherwise awful 2020!
Only thought the other day about when the next video was going to come out. And here it is, it's so so good.
Looking forward to the next episode!
Wonderful chaps great adventure
Great video yet again Harry. Love the quality of the production. Scillies look amazing. Especially enjoyed the boat builders Harry Hill shirt..
The water looks fantastic. Not much mention how bleedin' freezing it is... :-) A great series, can't wait for your next episode!
I love your videos so much. Beautifully made and absolutely wonderful. 👌
