    Can I make a suggestion? Whenever you pull into a new port, can you take a moment and show us the scenery. Doesn't have to be much, but just seeing the area you parked the AWOL in would be great. You keep pulling into these beautiful port's but we never see them. This one you said you left Naples and I was dang, I wanted to see Naples. 😃

    I find it interesting the number of small boats that are kind of darting to and fro around the entrance. They must think that these large yachts can stop or manuveur like they do. I compare it to when I have a load of 350+ bales of hay (about24,000 lbs) on my trailer and someone will pull out in front of me and think that I can instantly slow down or stop.

    In that part of Italy they sail the boats same as they drive cars on the roads 😂 Giving-way cars always try to pass ahead of you, during the traffic jam they use to fit in order to get ahead of the others, people thinking they're the only one on the road... and they pretend to be right! No patient at all, same as in this vid, this one make me laugh but I shiver at the same time, thinking of the captain having that amount of responsibility.. and finger crossed also for the ferry captain. I'm working in the merchant navy and seeing this situations is very frustrating 🤦‍♂️
    Anyway, great vlog as always Capt. Tristan, so much interesting, wishing you will continue with this technical/operational format.. sometimes I miss the onboard life and your videos bring me back there!
    Little pronunciation tip, as italian: Capri has the accent on the "a", so it becomes Càpri 😁
