Nice episode Tony, thank you!

fire crackers

Despite the fog, lumpy seas and the Orca issue, it looks like you still had an enjoyable sail down the coast. Thank you for taking us along, Tony. See you nest week.

Moin Tony gelesen habe ich noch nichts über durch Interaktionen beschädigte Ruder an Langkielern oder Stahl/Aluminiumbooten, waren doch fast immer GFK-Boote mit Spaten- oder Halbskegruder, die die gesunken sind hatten aber auch lausige Ruderkokerkonstruktionen.

You are certainly making good progress down the coast. Running the Orca gauntlet is always a concern, some of the attacks on boats have been extremely persistent. They have also exposed the production boats fragility with the spade rudder and rudder tube and the latter has caused the sinkings. I have enjoyed following your progress on AIS.😉 Have fun.😀👍⛵️

There's a fair chance the fishing boats would leave the AIS off so they can fish with anonymity.

Nice if slightly scary sailing trip in the fog Tony. Hope the Orcas stay away. Tapatya goes good. Go well to the two of you

Nice nice. The famous Orca Avoidance Protocols are working! If that fails, you'll have to smack em with the oar!

😍😍😍👍👍👍👍

How's it getting laid for a single guy

I think even orca will struggle to break your rudder, I've seen the damage to to some on other channels and in the news but they were typically foam cored modern stuff, I think you'll be ok, how's Hazels rudder, modern or older fashioned ?

A lot of fishing boats don't want their competitors knowing where the are going to catch

Well done dodging the Orca Tony, at least you’ve got a pretty solid rudder more than can be said for some of the plastic fantastics 😀.

Nice one.. and remember all dolphins are whales but not all whales are dolphins.. Orcas are dolphins.. 🙂

I love seeing dolphins!! They say if Orcas do make a visit, to turn off your motor. And they do attach and kill dolphins, too! I won't ever pay to see one again. (Sea World September 1986) Fair Winds! ✝️🙏❤️🇺🇸⛵️👣☘️🍍🤗😎

As a young boy going to Sea World in San Diego and seeing people swimming and thinking they were training Orcas always worried me. Maybe they are retaliating now, just a thought. Great video Tony, sail on.

Congratulations on building such a beautiful boat, she looks to sail fantastic. I'm currently sailing solo around Australia and the fishing boats here never use AIS. Fair winds mate

Tony great upload as usual, really enjoyed your routine to move off the pick.

I've said it before I'll say it again... Father / daughter trip ...stellar! Goodonyas!

"Haze up ahead"... in a boat, I hope😂

Thanks Tony I’m living vicariously through your adventures!

I think you have settled down into the leisurely cruising mode now. Life is good.😀👍⛵️

Did you try any local brews or food or snacks?

Is that the wildfire in the background?😢nice video again Tony, thanks for the trip loved it👍⛵️⛵️

Lovely journey and scenery. Go well Tony

hi the boat is looking grate 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😄

Very nice adventure, you two pirates!

Have you decided on the wintering location yet.

Oh, I love Portugal!!! Wish I was with you!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Excellent !

Thank you, Tony, for the afternoon video. Just sat down for a snack and got to enjoy a lovely sail at the same time. Every country should have a month of festivals to make life so much more fun. Best wishes to you and Hazel for continued good cruising.

Thanks for the underlay tip and review Tony, do you have a brand name for it and happy sailing ahead!

A sailing friend and I discovered a product in the US that has ceased operation. It was almost the same as the material you showed in the video. It still works great on both our boats after 10 years. I.m told that a company in the UK is selling a similar product to yours by the roll.

So pleased you're not doing the advertising thing. Thank you.

Danke!

As the weeks and sea-miles go by, we can tell that Taptya has really become your home, Tony. It'a very enjoyable to watch. All my best to you and Hazel as you negotiate the Orca corridoor... take care of each other. Faire winds and enjoy the sunshine. - Chris

There's this new product you put together like stick legos but made of plastic. At the joints are squares. Then there is a piece you clip into that. Well there all connected. You put your matress on top and it doesn't touch the boat surface. Of course that depends on how stiff your matress is. No, i dont know the name.❤❤

Do a video about Hazel's boat sometime! Looks like a production boat converted to junk ketch rig.

How is your power consumption doing ?

If you are going to south Portugal for winter, Nave Pegos (Bruce’s yard) in Faro is a good boatyard. Close to the city center, supermarkets and the airport. We let the boat there past winter before going up north.

You could visit The Boat Rambler in Portugal.

Use the same underlay stuff and it seems to work fine

You don't need umbrellas with daiquiris, they're like rocket fuel, you take off like Mary Poppins. ☂ If you've already decided that you want your reviews impartial and no two ways about it, that's cool. I'm in the camp I don't mind CZcamsrs getting free items and commission for reviewing items. Near enough all the channels I watch do a fair and impartial take on whatever product they are doing. Anyways, your channel, up to you Tony!

Lovely video enjoyed your talk about the mattresses and mould very descriptive well done the scenery up the mountain was brilliant very hot by the look of it good luck to the future 😊😊

Very nice Tony. T`is good you buddy boating with Hazel through lovely scenery. Stay safe Enjoy Go well ok

Where do I get this material?

Thank you for the update, Tony. Those looked like delicious daiquiris. Best wishes for a great week of sailing ahead.

The Grand Adventure continues!!! Stay safe though, apparently it's gnarly in the Med.....

hi grate i dear👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😄

Moisture build-up underneath mattresses and seat cushions isn't restricted to boats. It manifests itself more quickly perhaps on boats, due to the marine environment and comparatively limited ventilation. That high-tech underlay looks like an excellent solution, thanks for sharing the tip. (I was one of those questioning the lack of vent holes in your bed base!)
