I’m getting very close to departing the UK, so it’s time to repack the bow of the boat and finish up the little lingering jobs. Key to the job is making sure the sails are all dry and for once (!) neatly packed into their deck bags, bricked and stowed securely.
After that we take the opportunity to look around the newly painted, and properly organized bow.
Here’s the link for that little digital replacement for a fridge thermostat, a clever spare to have to hand if you are relying on a fridge or freezer for food storage on a longer voyage,

Still loving the new content Chris, you are one of the few I watch straight away, not urgent, but important content for a boat owner aspiring to sailing solo offshore. Take care out there.
The "origami" title candy got me in, but I'm staying for the great sailing content.
Chris, great to see you sailing again in the post covid world. I just listened to the podcast with you sailing up over the top of Britain (Pentland Firth) and have to complement your work. I don't think anyone is doing sailing podcasts like that. First of all running a boat of that size single handed is one thing, but then to record and share the experience in such an entertaining way is quite another. Congrats on the new boat.
my passions are single handed sailing and sail training- so this is the only way I can see I can follow those in a post Covid world - really hoping this YT experiment works out then I can concentrate on it 100%!
No other sailing vlog deserves more views than this one. Super informative, super entertaining from a fun and genuine guy with tons of experience.
So true.
Can hardly wait to see what's next Chris!!
Often it's the little things you mention that I find so helpful... like rigging to Fender for easy access in an emergency... I've never thought of that and I really coulda used that in one particular case...
Oh well... next time 👍
All your videos have loads of helpful tips. Flaking and bricking, or parcelling as we called it what we used to do on race boats I was on. Very good way of making them easier to move around. Cheers. Andy UK
thanks for all your supportive comments Andy- if you have any questions or thugs you want to see particularly- don’t hesitate to ask:)
Great work Chris! Loving the content
Thanks Gareth :)
Great work checking off the list.
Enjoy your trip to Iceland Chris. Safe & Sound!
Good luck with the single handed sail
Great video.
Hey Chris - enjoying the videos and have watched a bit of older ones now as well - must admit I’m not a cold area sailor myself but if that’s your thing 👍🏻.
Doing boat projects while watching videos about boat projects....
Great video again! Show us what’s on that tool belt!
I have an origami boat, with sailing rig, actually.😂😂
Wow your Busy organizing. Not surprised single handlers say they want to get to sea so they can rest!
I would love it if we could see a still of the boat at the end, I know it’s big but 82’ is huge! Sorry Eh 85’!!
Will that sheath for sail ties stay flat like strapping or does it not matter?
Cheers Warren
you showed your bad for cleaning and polishing the hull etc, have you dont a video on how you keep the yacht looking good when it gets such hard work?
I'm not subscribing until I see origami bikinis. Seriously, do you ever segregate lines by color? And do you play the "red light" night vision game? I just close one eye myself. Charts are worthless under red light.
