  • We head out again in the tiny speedboat, this time leaving Dunbar in Scotland and heading home in the direction of England and where we started many moons ago. Joining me on this episode is one half of the fishermen Speedboaters we met in the Firth of Forth: / rooster_boys_boating
    We have lunch in Berwick-upon-Tweed before we drop in on Lindisfarne for a look at the priory and castle. After a good nights sleep camping in the dunes we weave our way through the tiny Farne Islands and towards Newcastle and the river Tyne.
    A very big thanks to Norman for spotting us on the AIS and offering to be the honorary support team.
    The end doesn't feel like so far off now, but still plenty of sea miles to bounce our way through yet...

    This must be heaven.
    The sight of Goodwin speeding over a glassy sea to the strains of that iconic music; what more could a mortal man desire on a windy and dull bank holiday Sunday?
    Truly epochal stuff.
    Thanks Harry! ❤

    Lockdown robbed us of our freedom, and this series gave a part of it back, along with a restored sense (for me at least) national pride. You’ve showcased fabulous scenery, comedy, kindness, humanity, and created something amazing Harry, thank you and well done.

    Goodwin doesn’t look like an old RIB anymore Harry. She’s looking very smart with all that work done, you must be a very proud owner! I wish you all the best you must be nearing the end of this incredible adventure now especially with summer ending and winter quickly drawing in. I know it’s been said many times before in the comments of your videos but I think you should consider disclosing the date/eta of the last leg of your journey. I think I speak on behalf of everyone when I say we would love to welcome you back in to the Thames on our boats and I think with fan base you have built up since this journey began it could be a grand finish….even bigger than when Ellen MacArthur returned to Falmouth after her round the world voyage 😆 well done sir you deserve a knighthood for this 🫡

I have fond memeories of Berwick, fish and chips back then were an event and they were a real treat. The weekly shopping trips from Wooler to Berwick were an event for us small kids, it was a joyful time.I noticed the "Scotch pies", I hope you tried one, I always make sure to get one when I'm up there.
