I realise that I didn't explain what diesel bug is. There's a good explanation of it in the following link, and the issue with it is that if it grows in your boat fuel tank, it will eventually block your fuel filters, can damage your fuel pump and injectors and will ultimately stop the boat from running. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_contamination_of_diesel_fuel
She is wickedly funny in a subtle way, great relationship between the 2 of you comes across beautifully on camera. I learnt a lot from your calm, professional and pleasant way of teaching some fundamentals of boating. Keep it up
@@AQUAHOLIC I was going to say a similar thing as Achmat Adams but he put it more eloquently than I would have. Maryanne adds a great deal to the videos that she is in and is a welcome voice that will hopefully be in many of your future videos.
I have been boating for over 50 years but I still learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Thanks Nick these videos are just excellent and show the reality of boating in the UK, down to the last detail. A very happy video, and proof you don't need a huge boat to have carefree fun for the weekend.
I bet that one day this channel will allow you to buy a bigger boat. The videos you make are so entertaining and high quality, totally different from anything that's out there. I see you're already doing sponserships. This channel will be a cash cow in a few years, and well deserved!
Is it odd that I enjoy the adventures of Nic and Maryanne as much as the boat tours. Keep it up makes for the beginning of a great day for those of us who don't have a boat. And I guess I am not alone in clicking the like button even before watching the video.
Maryanne looked stunning in her new hair dew. Along with diesel bug inhibitor I always add about a pint of 96% Ethanol to mix the water in the tank cause by condensation. In a diesel engine what isn't used from the pump to the injectors is returned at high temperature into the diesel tank. When the heated fuel cools it is replaced by high moister content air because diesel expand when heated and contracts when cold, letting the outside air enter the tank using the vent tube. This happens after a day of use and the boat sits overnight. Small amounts of water go to the bottom of the diesel tank and can clog and stop your engine if not treated. About a pint of Ethanol to every 100 liters when refueling your boat will allow the Ethanol to mix the water into the diesel without clogging the filter. If you have a fuel polisher it does this without the Ethanol. Just a trick I learned as a teenager working on a commercial fishing boat on the US West Coast.
@@7755ian1 very, very clever there sir, but let's keep this joke between us 3 (yourself, myself and Nick)- as I'm sure Maryanne wouldn't be too chuffed after hearing such a joke!
@@kenlee-97 "Dew" is really what's happening with the dreaded bug, i.e water mixing with Diesel starts the process. I did wonder how long before anyone realised what I wrote, to make the connection. You did, well done.....
Another great video! It would be lovely to have your wife with you on a boat tour and for her to give her perspective. Such as having her do the interior and you covering the exterior and engine room and ending with both of you giving final comments.
AQUAHOLIC to be confirmed! Bought it at Penton Hook Marina but hoping to keep it somewhere on the Thames until next summer when I hope to take it across the Channel. It needs a lot of work to get it seaworthy and not just a gin palace!
Well, this was even better than the boating in wind video. Who would have guessed?! Really, really enjoyed seeing real people (you two are fantastic together) and a real boat that some of us might be able to afford. More like this please!!
Hey that’s the gas station from yesterday’s video (where the wind was politely helping you park your boat). I love that you both are friendly to everyone and everyone is friendly to you. I hope Maggie the wonder backpack had a fun time too!
You guys are so pleasant it cheers up my day whenever I see you together. I can imagine you have just about circumnavigated nearly all aspects of yachting and its hassles. there maybe more to come, hope so. Thanks :)
I really enjoy your personal boat videos. You and Mayanne are great! My wife and I watch your videos when we want to dream about our future boat. We both love her new hair as well!
To think I nearly didn’t watch as I’m happy fuelling my boat. I watched because it’s Aquaholic and I’d watch it if the title was “paint drying” as you know it’s going to be good! True to form, a very relaxing video to watch and making the local coastline look blissful. Thanks Nick 👍
And what an ideal music choice. As we're currently locked down totally here with a curfew and a 5km travel limit, I'll just enjoy cruising vicariously. Still need the video of the scones, jam and clotted cream on the aft deck though.
Thanks for showing us the fuelling process. I was going to ask you if you would consider doing a series of videos on the practicalities of running a boat such as use of the vhf radio and what is the process of contacting the harbour to see if they have a berth, how much that would cost. Even emptieng the loo etc.
Great video as always, beeps drove my barmy. Kept pausing the video and checking my smoke alarms in the house ha ha! Thought I had a rogue alarm with a flat battery! Keep up the great content.
Love all your vids but particularly trips out with you and yours on water and land - behind the scenes is great as was the very extravagant family charter you shared with us thank you. Undoubtedly the super yacht tours are fascinating but reveal the boring transitory life led by many of the very wealthy poor things - makes me feel lucky to be born without such problems. Please keep doing these videos they are inspiring in these difficult times.
Lovely to see Marianne back boating with you. Her new hairstyle really suits her :) Ye are a great team, she is a natural on camera and well able to commentate off the cuff! Nice relaxing viewing, although I'm supposed to be working Lol
Marianne is a natural! Compliments you perfectly! Marmite & cheddar cheese sandwiches 🥪 for lunch? Or fish & chips 🐟 🍟? Great upload as always! Seriously, I love watches, boats and planes but yours is the best UA-cam channel period! Many thanks and take care!
@Marianne McHugh You're welcome. Please don't fire Nick when you take over the channel, he could be useful for manning the lines and making Marmite sandwiches. 😃
@@AQUAHOLIC ~ laughed so hard at this response ... and I hope the initials mean the same on your side of the pond or it MIGHT not be as funny - but it hella was to me! 😆😂🤣
Thank you for another great video - let Marianne know her hair color is beautiful. My wife had the same coloring and I mistakingly made a poor comment and have suffered since. I like the addition of the ‘how to’ videos, ‘according to Nick’. Thanks from Dallas.
Great Video from Captain Holic and Admiral Mrs Holic, i was parked up at Brighton marina looking at the fuel bay eating my lunch and this came up on my playlist. Love it. Hope you got press access on Friday to Southampton and full access to all the toys next week.
Great videos Nick! appreciate the content. My Dad tied a small floaty to his fuel key as well as one to the ignition key for his boat. Just in case the key dropped overboard it didn't sink. Thank you and stay safe! All the best from Canada!
I was on holiday in Paignton just last week. We went to Brixham and Torquay. Had lunch at the Below Decks cafe near your mooring. It would be nice to meet you and buy you a drink Nick. I love your content. Cheers....
Videos like this Nick help to show us all aspects of boating, from the previous vid talking about berthing and wind, today fuelling the boat and then a run back up the coast. these also let us see just how much you enjoy being out on the sea. really enjoy all of your tours and videos. 👏👏👏😄😄
I always enjoy your boating life videos Nick. You should consider starting a new channel dedicated just to them. I love the new addition of a ‘helmsman" or should be ‘helmsperson’ too ;)
Another great video Nick, your videos have inspired me and I’ve recently bought a 2002 Sessa Islamorada and your video on wind was very pertinent as on my second trip it caught me out (thankfully no damage but I’m very wary now)
Love it! I filled boats for 5 years and sometimes it's actually quite a challenge to even get the fuel into some boats either due to dumb filler tube design or STUPID spiders getting in the relief valves
True, about the restricted filler nozzles, let the air escape as well by pulling the nozzle out of the filler once in a while. Also ,blast that damn spider into oblivion!!!!!!!
what a beautiful boat I like the size perfect for family with average maintenance costs i hardly knew of such luxuries aquaholic has taught me a lot about boating.Thank you very much for such informative content lots of love from Kenya.I can't wait to own one some day just like smugglers blue 2 enjoying the sunset here in Malindi.
Just beautiful. I hope one day I will have also one of these boats like you filming on your channel. You two are so sweet, take care of your self, and keep filming.
Hi Nick, what a great video and lovely views! I wish you and Marian will have a happy and healthy life as we are seeing for last forever. Take care mate!
Hi Nick and Marianne. Diesel bug is a pain, glad you added the remedy much like redex in a car. Cool music very fitting for the trip. Great video thanks.
Thanks Nick for making these vids they are excellent and you are an inspiration to the youth like myself, I hope to own a boat when Im older and you explain things well. So thanks a lot for these vids!
Thank you very much I am very happy to be able to watch your videos I‘ve just made my boat license and bought a Benetaue swift trawler 50 inspired of your walkthrough vid Now I can watch these vids if I’m not sure what to do Thank you
I currently cant afford my own boat, but i absolutly love ur tutorial videos as they show more how it is to own a boat, you should do a vlogg or something! (U might have done one allready in that case i would love to see it!)

Another great video, maybe you could just "How to" playlist these videos, as I genunigly feel people would like to watch the How To videos all together Nick, as always very honest and informative, thanks.
I'm hopefully getting my first boat soon and greatly enjoy discovering and watching many of your videos including the walks and hearing about your childhood. I feel like I almost know you! Probably different to most of your subscribers, but I would really appreciate a video or two describing more basic boat owning tips like boat manoeuvring, tieing up when mooring in different attitudes, cleaning and maintenance tips & products, marine instrumentation usage etc. Stuff that you've learnt over the years.

Why is it specific to boats? Why didnt I have to put any additive in my diesel car for example?
