    Barry new to your channel but as a mechanic I would highly recommend you carry some Wurth Pipe Sealant for any threaded connections (Better than Loctite PTFE), Some Loctite 515 Gasket maker (You would be amazed at how that stuff can get you out of trouble and seal most things) and some RTV Silicone. After going back and watching all your troubles with Mr Perkins adding these to your stores would greatly help. Thanks for your videos love the channel!

      all crustaceans are just underwater invertebrates. Under water bugs. Lobster, shrimp, crabs.........all bugs. Perhaps that is why the Christian bible tells us it is a sin to eat seafood.

    Hi there Salty Sea Dog, from where you currently call home.
    Thank god, you are on the water again so to speak, in your last video I watched you were contemplating stopping your cercunaveargating our gorgeous home ( Sea ) all-together. Because of a little storm ? Sourly nothing that you or Shady could not handle.
    Yes truely a storm that would have put the shits up any normal seaman or sailor. However there is the sea dog and Shady.
    Kind respectful regards
    Terry.

    Your living the dream I wish I could, Barry. Love your videos. You scared the daylights out of me in The Storm Video when you decided to run for the Marina, every fiber of my being was screaming "No! No! This is no time to be close to land. Turn tail and run to open seas, drop you sails and ride it out." I was beyond relieved when you were rescued.

  • @davidpearson8954
    @davidpearson8954 Рік тому

    That is exactly how I rig my snubber line. Same hook as well. I run mine through the bow spit for the anchor chain, so the boat doesn’t yaw. Tried it through both sides but it encourages more swinging about.

    I started backing out of the slip once and the boathad almost no propulsion . Once i kinda drifted into the channel it started getting worrisome . I finally fill throttle in forward and yhe boat jumped . A large black garbage bag came up in the prop wash . The bag had fouled the prop !

    I enjoyed that immensely. I've never been to Australia. I know what it's like to have a keel dragging in the mud, though my little boat has a shallower draught (long keel). As we say in France - "Bon vent" and a safe passage to wherever you're going.

    Hey Barry! Another fantastic video packed with valuable information. Your explanations on snubbers, bowlines, and dead kittens were clear and easy to follow. It's always a bit sad when your videos end because they are such a treat to watch. Can't wait for the next hour-long blockbuster! By the way, it's awesome to see you exploring new sailing grounds. Keep up the great work and remember, never give up on your dreams! Stay safe and fair winds, my friend. Oh, and your sea captain's haircut and beard look top-notch!

    I may be wrong but I think the dead cat mic is stereo, two microphones. So, I think they should be orientated perpendicular to the source, not pointing at the source for better separation.

  • @leeoldershaw956
    @leeoldershaw956 Рік тому +2

    I think the chain hook should be connected to the snubber with a thimble eye at the end of the snubber, not a shackle around a loop.
