  • Something I didn't think I would be doing but here we are! I got offered a spot on a sailboat in Cowes week. Hands down one of the best experiences ever, I cannot wait to get out on the water again.

    The best campers are the ones that are used, nice to see you smiling 😃
    Does your air ride self level uneven ground and sit like that for days?
    I believe will enjoy the way mads from sail life works. SailLife

      100% bud. The van works so well too, I had an absolute blast! So it can level front to back quite well but side to side you are limited as they are connected by the anti roll bar. I managed to get the van within 0.5 degrees front to back and side to side. Thanks for the tip I shall take a look 🙏

      @@DanChambersDAC no worries, thanks for all the effort you put into your films.
      Go back and watch the early sail life vids when he is working on the boat. I binged them on 2x speed.

    I’ve just come back from the Isle of Wight after camping in our T5 for 10 days, it’s a fantastic place to be, the regatta looks like great fun, looking forward to getting back over there very soon…

    Loved it mate. Great to see you enjoying the van after building it. I know it's hard vlogging stuff, but it's definitely nice seeing you out and about doing different things 😎

      Thank you so much bud. Glad you enjoyed it. It was a bit disjointed and me rambling but it’s a starting point. I need to do more to improve. The outro but on the ferry I just thought sod it and stood filming that bit right in front on the main area where everyone was sat looking out.

    Amazing video Dan, Isle Of White is a fantastic place I've had several holidays there and always went for the first two weeks in August for Cowes week, you are so lucky to get to go on one of the sailboats which I always wanted to but it never happened. When I was there I was lucky enough to see the Royal yacht and even see some of the Royal family.
    Really pleased you enjoyed your trip to Cowes Dan and maybe you will go again to do some more sailing and filming👏🙏✌

      Thank you bud, I went as a kid but can’t remember it. I didn’t get a chance to explore the island as we were pretty focused on the sailing/sea side of things. Getting out on a sail boat is something that I never thought I would get to do but I really really enjoyed it. Really hoping I can get out on the water again soon.

    Keep up the good work🤙🏻

    Boat build next? Great video, nice to see you're putting the van to good use! Now you've been away in it for a few trips, is there anything about the setup you'd tweak?

      Would love to do a boat build. Been thinking about one for a couple of years now. Just difficult not living near the coast. Absolutely loving the van it works so well. I don’t think I would tbh. It pretty much works how I wanted it to which is nice!

    Its a shame, the weather has been bad this Year, as Cowes Week is normally a great experiance. There are other Sailing events during the Year on the Island, you might be intrested in. Also dont forget the Scooter Rally over the August Bank Holiday, which is another Great event to attend....
