    Sohappy to find your beautiful channel. The best of UA-cam. I remember my glorious trip to Ireland 2 decades ago. I could barely sleep for my excitement while there. Two weeks was too short. I left my heart there. I remember Kinsale with such affection.

    On top of all deserved praise: I had no idea that sailing requires so profound navigational skills, taking into consideration the weather patterns, mooring and so much more. I thought naively you just hold the wheel and go. Newly learned respect for seamen.

    THIS IS THE MOST WONDERFUL AND AMAZING TRAVEL DOCUMENTARY I HAVE EVER SEEN!. THANK YOU. - I watch all your Venture Boats trips (Aleutians, Alaska, British Columbia, Europe, Ireland, England, California, Idaho, New York). All videos are properly edited and perfectly presented. All landscapes, scenes, nature, blue sky, grey sky, deep blue sea make me feel so good. It is very soothing and entertaining. Whenever I am stressed out in my life, I always go to watch your sailing videos and it comfort me a lot. - I enjoy watching all your videos (on my 72" flat screen TV - SONY) all time, every weekend from my home in Los Angeles. Even though I am not fortunate like you to circumnavigate the globe and travel on own boat, your sea journey and wonderful voyage videos have brought many delights and good feeling to me. We all ordinary people are grateful to you (Gratitude) for your generous and wonderful presentations. Thank you.

The Cuillin, more specifically the Black Cuillin and the Red Cuillin are mountain ranges that contain various hills. The word Cuillin is normally used in the singular and it is pronounced " koolin". Thanks for great films.

    I always hoped to visit places like this , but alas I fear it will never be. So , Thank you Tony and crew for this visit to the land of my ancestors (McClung) who left that place back in 1620's to come to America. For some reason it was very moving to me and I believe I know now why the mountains have called me to live amongst them in New Hampshire . Maybe my ancestors dreamed of a place free of persecution of the times they lived in and had the calling to move to the new world to be free . When I hike in the mountains I get very emotional very deep in my heart and now I know why. Your detail and history documentation of these places pleases me beyond anything I could imagine. If I never see these places in person , at least you helped me see them and feel the history they have. Well done Sir , Well done !

    In the beginning of this video you mentioned the volcanic erruptions that closed down air travel for a week or so. We are Americans but were living in Portugal and were vacationing in Cork when the world came to a stop. What a beautiful place to be stranded. We traveled daily to Kensale to eat and shop. We were almost dissapointed when we finally had to leave. It is a beautful part of the world. Thanks for this video. We had also, on another trip, visited Scotland but didn’t realize how much of the north of Scotland is wild country. Such beauty. It is breathtaking. We’ll just have to make another trip.

    • @FlemingYachts
      @FlemingYachts  8 місяців тому +1

      If one is traveling along the coast where there are anchorages to choose from then generally one would not travel overnight. But if traveling long distances then you have no choice but to keep going. You cannot just drop anchor and stop out in open waters. Traveling at night you need to take turns to keep watches - generally two hours on watch followed by 6 hours off with a crew of four.

( sorry Mr Attenborough ) I live in England but due to ill health (cancer and angina) and my inability to save means I will probably never travel again. Please do not feel sorry for me as I worked in Motor Racing (F1) for 27 years. I have visited 33 Country`s on 4 Continents, and have drunk enough to sink a Fleming!!! And seen some Beautiful places. Your videos take me to places that I will never see but make me feel that I have. Thank You.

    On the Outer Herbredies, were there ever forests on these islands? Did the forests disappear because of the grazing of sheep and cows? Or is the weather too intemperate for trees to thrive? Trees don't grow in the USA midwest because the weather is too severe: too windy and cold, ice storms breaking tree limbs. As a result, from Chicago to Denver you don't see a tree more than about forty years old and more than 60 feet tall.
