******** OUR UNDERWATER BREATHING SYSTEM *********
Now let me say a few things before you run off and buy one. Firstly I have nothing to compare it to other than free-diving. I've never scuba dived before in my life and I've never used another hookah before. I did do a lot of due diligence when it comes to understanding the dangers of breathing compressed air under the water. In short, these things are dangerous and not to be taken lightly. If you think this is something you'd be interested in then please do speak to a diving expert (I've had the good fortune to learn from several, in terms of theory, as well as my own continued reading).
We really enjoy this electronic hookah as it's small, lightweight and seemed (to us) perfect for the little space we had on the boat, where dive tanks and a compressor just wouldn't fit, as well as add a lot of additional weight.
If you use the above link and you do buy one too then we will get a small kick back which will go towards Hanks treat jar, it's the same price regardless of if you go to the company directly, but I know some people feel a certain kind of way about us getting any kind of kick backs, so if that's you then just google 'air buddy dive system' and go to the site directly, again the price is the same regardless, but I'd like you to feel good about how you got there, so, there you have it.
What else can I say? We bought the system directly from the company in Australia. We bought it ourselves and paid full price for it. We saw a 'distributer' in the UK, but they wanted close to double the price and had similar wait times to simply ordering direct from Australia, so that's why we went direct and just paid some import taxes, which still worked out much cheaper than the UK distributer. The team at Air Buddy have also been amazing on the other end of my emails and questions, for us it's been a very positive after sales service.
Again I've never tried any other products so I am in no way qualified to give any advice other than say that we use this most days and have been enjoying it, we've used it to check on the anchor, clean under the boat mid-season, explore some amazing reefs and do a spot of foraging too. We get close to an hour under the water on my own or about 50 minutes when Carly is attached to it too.
I hope that's answered most of the questions which have come my way but if you have any more then again please do just ask and I'll do my best to answer them from my own anecdotal experience.

That was a significant accomplishment for anyone to overcome their fears of any kind. Matt, of Sailing Florence, did a similar thing on their time in the South Pacific in learning to SCUBA. AND the Thumbnail for this video needs to win an Oscar!
Breaking the hoodoo very well done Carly
Your videos get better ,totally glorious ,having moved to Hong Kong 13 years ago for the first time you have made me feel homesick much nostalgia related to younger days exploring Devon and Cornwall
Can't wait for more
Well done Carly that was a big step forward and I'm sure the future will reward you with the wonders of the underwater world. Now Hank needs a dog version.
Ha ha, it's a miracle to get Hank in the water at the best of times 🤣
@@CadohaAdventures 🤣He is such a great dog though!😎
Your channel has become a resource for us armchair travelers/sailors, with an abundance of links wherein we can do our own exploring. Again, the music makes for an engaging and comforting essential feature of your lovely, humorous, and poetic posts.
It is always nice to think that our time here can be of some use to others ☺️
Well done Carly. The peace and tranquility of this uncorrupted natural habitat that makes you feel detached from the world above hopefully will make you want you to go again and again. 🙏🏻👍🏻
Well done Carly, as a severe childhood asthmatic who was frequently rushed to hospital. I absolutely understand that fear of not being able to breathe. Dom you have an incredible courageous and determined captain - but I guess you always knew that. Buy the Captain another drink - she's earned it!
When I was a kid we had several holidays sailing out of Portmelon. There was a boat builders there, they had to close the road and build a link ramp across it to launch. I see the seaward side still exists.
Yes I think they still use the launch for the boats on the hard.
Last time I saw it it was in poor shape and rusting. Also a bit remote for the hard and not at all convenient.@@CadohaAdventures
No I imagine it's just for a couple of locals that happened to have small boats in the area now, perhaps? @@jonathanwetherell3609
I can relate to how Carly feels. I have adult onset asthma and I had an episode where I could not get any air into my lungs, and I remember for a fleeting moment saying to myself "is this the way I am going to go?". Having no air is very scary and it freezes you in your tracks even when you are perfectly ok.
Yes when you think about an incident like that I can imagine it's simply terrifying and made her fear all the more understandable
What is also amazing is you did not put pressure and let her ease into it on her own terms over time. Keep that love and respect in mind every time. Well done!
Well done Carly, you looked fairly comfortable in the water.
Not wanting to burst your bubble. Please don’t go any deeper than 2.5m without further training. Complete an open water PADI course or any affiliation for scuba training. You will breeze through it. The most important aspect is that you will have an understanding of breathing compressed air under water. Also learn to recover a lost reg, a bumped mask, all of which can be frightening if you haven’t got the proper training.
We didn't show it in the video but Carly can clear her mask under the water, we all can but you're right, some paid training is never a bad idea 🙏🏻
Well done Carly, may you continue to enjoy the thrill of many years of underwater experiences. I can understand Carly's fear, I am a certified diver and if I haven't dove for sometime that first dive back is very hard. Once I'm under and breathing everything is fine again, until my next extended break lol.
That's fair, it's a beautiful but also a scary world (at times) under there ☺️
Well done Carly. Taking the step and try was a massive step and an achievement by itself, irrespective of the actual succesfull swim. You overcame yourself…Hence you can actieve whatever you set your mind to. Congrats.
Another groovy episode. Very cool Carly on your first diving experience. The world under the sea is a beautiful place to visit, with lots of cute friends to welcome you. You maps of your travel on land and on the sea are brilliant. Stay safe and stay groovy. Cheers Hank.
WOW well done carly its not an easy thing to overcome the fear of the sea ??? even in the shallows xx
So proud of the progress she made after so many failed attempts ☺️🙏🏻
Fantastic Carly! And thank you for being so honest about facing your fears- would be great to hear from you how you found the experience and whether you feel able to dive again. Curious to know about your controversy though....!
The controversy was some local spearo thought we were spearfishing whilst using a hookah and then 'reported' us to a local forum where everyone got quite animated about it and a boat even raced over to tell us we were 'breaking the law' when in fact we weren't at all, but the story went all the way round the community and back before the truth even had a chance to get it's shoes on.
@@CadohaAdventures There's a whole extra episode- or not! Hope it didn't spoil the amazing experience and that you were all ok
We were fine, I ended up getting quite animated in response and probably wasn't the best version of myself when I started reading that one or two people were making posts saying they'd damage the hookah if they saw it out in the water.
This triggered me for many reasons but mostly because it would likely have been my wife on the other end of said sabotage and she really didn't need any more reason to be scared down there, so in a moment of blind ginger rage I told them what they could expect in return if that was their intention.
Again it was all quite heated for a moment and I'm never the best version of myself when I feel threatened or those I care for are but thankfully it all managed to sort itself out without any major fallings-out going off in Cornwall, thankfully 🙏🏻 😳
You commented on the day being such a great day, and then a scene of the Rising Sun Inn reminded me how confused I was earlier this morning, here in the Midwest, USA. Yeah, at about 45º above horizon in the West sky was a full moon, and the sun was at about 15º in the East. Yes, both the moon and the sun in the sky at the same time. Was it night or day? Has this ever happened to you with both heavenly bodies up there at the same time? Is this what the "witching hour" does? Any abnormal behavior by Hank? Well done, Carly! Best, :¬) Webhead USA
Go Carly!! Another lovely location, distracting us from the current storms - thank you ⛵
You’re very welcome 😊
Great big congratulations to Carly. Just need to keep it up now and really slay those dragons … but 6m is a real achievement ❤
Oh WOW. Absolutely well done Carly... So fab for you to join Dom under the big blue.... Its such a fab feeling seeing everything that is under the water.
Such a huge achievement considering your fears. Its really hard to get over, trust me ... I have nearly drowned 3 times over my short 55 years .... Once when a regulator malfunctioned whilst diving.
Am really proud of you too.
Take care you 3 and cant wait to bump into you all again X
Big Love
Vince and Jazzi Girl ⛵🍺
Thanks, Vince and we hope you've settled into your new home in the West Country for the winter 🙏🏻
Calm music and Carly wandering through nature and dom narrating might be the most relaxing thing in the world.
Always glad it's not too hard to watch. Thanks for taking the time to hang out with us again this week ☺️🙏🏻
@@CadohaAdventures And not hard to watch might be the understatement of the year! Love the channel!
Great video, thanks for sharing! 👍
I don’t know why some muppets kicked off over other people using hookah. I’ve taken scuba divers out on my boat and they’ve gone foraging while I spear. No reason why can’t have both on a boat!
Yes agree and to be honest I think people were (rightly) triggered at the idea that we were all spearfishing whilst using it, which we weren't. It's a shame the guy who suggested we were never came to just talk to us because then he would have seen up close exactly what we were doing.
Anyway, cest la vie.
@@CadohaAdventures that would have been the sensible thing to do! Anyways looking forward to more of your vids 😁
Really a good thought process!
Hi Charles Town is like stepping back in time , you can see why it has been used in films . Wim Hoff on you tube is good at explaining breathing . Thank you for the visit to Mellon , as I have never been there . Well done Carly and will it be Hanks turn next ? Great videos and keep them coming .😉❤👍👍🐶👍
Epic release , good job Carly … epic pan of the purple flowers against the building .. such a fantastic channel
I'm just happy to thinks (hope) we do these beautiful areas the justice they deserve 🙏🏻
Thanks for letting me witness this beautiful area❤ and your impressions and adventures there...with a successful anxiety 'treatment'..well done!!🎉 Gave me positive vibes that I take with me I my own walk of life.😊 Bravely forward and sail with the wind of today (or at least try..).🎉
Hope you are all in one piece after such horrendous weather....
Thank you we got off pretty lightly compared to some by the looks of some of the footage we’ve seen 🥹🫣
Good luck Carly. You got this, you got this girl😅. Keep up the good work 💪. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Carly has opened up a new world to explore, good for both of you !
We certainly hope so 🙏🏻
Another great episode, well done on the diving Carly ,i wouldnt worry too much about all negative comments Dom that looks to be a nifty little Hookah perfect for you guys
It is a very handy little bit of kit for life on small-ish boat 🙏🏻☺️
Beautiful Video as always. And well done Carly!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏻
Great vid & another lovely Hankhorage!
Indeed it is! ☺️
well done carly,,hope this opens a new world for you and your family,,
We certainly hope so 🙏🏻
What a lovely video, I haven’t watched for a while, production quality is absolutely superb, you’ve really got that nailed! I’ve just seen your pinned comment about the hookah, thank you! 👍🏼
Well done Carly. Hope you got the hang of it. Personally I do not like to be underwater, nor in tight spaces, like caves. Mr. Claustrophia has met me whenever tried. I gave up. On the other hand your channel confronted me with a problem. In 2 years I will retire. Reaching the glorious age of 67. Plan was to explore the beauties of Holland on a small sailingboat. Watching your channel, knowing I always liked to be in the UK, I would like to paraphrase Chief Brody from "Jaws": "I might need a slightly bigger boat".
If it has a pub and atleast 6 houses it has to be more than a hamlet. At least a village!
This channel combined sailing and ASMR!
I love the way your electric outboard looks like you have recycled K9's head!!
I've never thought about it like that before?
Congratulations Carly🎉🎉🎉
Thanking you 🙏🏻
Another great job by Hank & Carly
☺️🙏🏻
Love you guys Always xxx But I wish you were PADI diver trained. You may not get a mask problem on a 2 minute free dive but using a hookah for 15 minutes you are can almost guarantee you will need to clear your mask. Love you both and love Hank even more 😊
Appreciate that. We can all clear our masks under water but you're of course right, a padi course is only ever going to be a good thing to do 🙏🏻
Wow 😊 Carly! What an amazing strong Women 🎉🎉🎉
There's something beautifully elfin about Carly. Same can't be said of you, Dom, sorry. 😉 Well done, Carly. That is such a big step.
Thanks Nick 😬
Well done Carly!!!!!
Thanking you kindly ☺️🙏🏻
Onya, Carly!
Well done Carly
Thank you 🙏🏻☺️
🙌 Bravo Carly! 🙌
Inspiring stuff!
What was the controversy Dom?
Well done Carly , all the best to you all 👍
Thanking you 🙏🏻
Carly the mermaid ;)
It certainly was magical being down there ☺️🧜🏼♀️
well done carly. lovely video as usual. thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you ☺️
Wow Sailor 🥳🥳👍
It’s Hank’s turn next😊
WELL DONE GUYS.
Well done Carly! So what was the controversy you caused, did I miss it?
The controversy was some local spearo thought we were spearfishing whilst using a hookah and then 'reported' us to a local forum where everyone got quite animated about it and a boat even raced over to tell us we were 'breaking the law' when in fact we weren't at all, but the story went all the way round the community and back before the truth even had a chance to get it's shoes on.
In the end it turned out to be a bit of a storm in a tea-cup 😬
@@CadohaAdventures Perhaps it was a quiet day for the locals. At least they didn't have their pitchforks out ready when you went to shore 😁
Yay Carly!❤ so happy for you guys.
Well done, Carly.
👍👍👍🥰Well Done as always !!! Cheers from British Columbia, Canada
😀👍👍👍❤
I’m guessing this was the day that the spearfishing argument kicked off?! Clearly not doing anything wrong here so I hope this is seen by those mouthing off!
This was the day. I wish they had just come up to us and asked what we were doing and they could have seen what we were doing up close.
Anyway, coulda, shoulda, woulda.
Well done Carly and another brilliant quality video
Yay Carly!!
Thank you ☺️
11:21 "Controversy" You can't mention that and leave us hanging or do we have to wait for the statute of limitations to expire? 🤔

Once again Brilliant video
Carly could try a full face mask it helps some people but we'll done for keeping trying
So happy to see
It was a very happy day indeed ☺️
I have been watching your vids but do not recall any updates on the mouldy bed problems that you had. Have you sorted that & how did you do it? If you did not follow it up, perhaps a vid on the subject. Failing that a link to where you dealt with it please.
I wish I had something impressive to say about that but we got another new mattress and left the plastic wrapping on it which is easy to clean. Not ideal, not as pleasant to sleep in as without the wrapper, but no mould either.
@@CadohaAdventures I am surprised. . A further project do you not think?
Quite possibly a bit of a re-think, yes.
Excellent Carly !!
Fantastic 😁👍🏻
Carly..................Y. E. A. H. ‼️ 🎉 🤿🐟🐠😊
Love your show... Wish you posted more...
Well done👍
Thank you 👍
Your taste in music is charming. Thank you.
Always nice to hear that others enjoy my eclectic taste in music ☺️
As an american trapped in the rat race, this is a dream that sells itself. Bravo.
I hope your dream manages to become a reality some day 🙏🏻
What camera equipment are you using at the moment? Looks super !
I mostly use a Canon 90D and occasionally a gimbal, although I didn't use the gimbal too much this year and instead I opted for stabilisation of the shots in post using 'warp stabiliser' in premiere pro, with mixed results, but the gol was to be carrying round a lighter rig on our long walks.
HI THERE, IM WONDERING IF I CAN ASK A QUESTION?
