Now I have seen you loose your hat two times, so I want to give you a piece of advise!
I have a safety pin on the backstrap of my cap attached with a string of fitting length with a safety pin at the other end that I can fasten to somewhere on my clothes or my life jacket (I always wear lifejacket). In this way your cap can blow off or be beaten off, but never lost, because it is hanging on a string. The string is easily moved from one hat to another, just by opening the safety pin.
Best regards from a Carina 20 in Denmark
Hi Bent, I now have a new hat with a string and clip....and it works, thanks again , cheers Paul
Beautiful boat and location. Great video. I remember sailing across St George’s Basin in a little 8ft dinghy and the thud as jellyfish hit the centreboard and rudder!
Yep, If I could have a dollar for everyone I've hit I'd be a rich man....thanks for watching.
Guess it’s really a Jelly Fish, now! They don’t swim very well...do they?
@@robertsmith1860 gets interesting when the motor is on....
It's nice to see sailing on a warm day, when the winter season starts here and my boat is locked in the garage.
rug up....Thanks for watching.
Talking about bobbin head... It got its name when some guy forgot to duck and lost his hat... LOL
very funny.....thanks for watching
Thanks for posting your trips, we have recently moved up from Vic to Forster, (before Covid thank god) and are starting to get out sailing in the area. We have sailed on Port Stephens a couple of times in our Sunmaid 20, and are heading to the Myall lakes next weekend so your videos of the lakes are very helpful. Thanks again !
Glad you liked the videos and you will definitely like Myall lakes.Put in at Violet hill boat ramp,then Johnson's beach is only 10 mins motor or turn left and head out onto the big lake head straight across to Shelley Beach. Both have shallow sandy beaches but get popular in school holidays. Check the weather can get 25kt winds through the area. Check out "myplacestopaddle" on youtube to see my paddling videos from a few years ago. Have fun cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise You were right, Myall lakes are incredible ! We had 4 days, could have done with 4 weeks. Can`t wait to get back there, probably not until late Jan but will be worth the wait.
@@phillipobrien7365 Glad you liked it , I would have been there now but for the rain and storms, still hoping to get there before Christmas on in Jan let me know when you plan to be ther we can catch up
@@SailingKateLouise Probably not till late Jan, but will let you know
Where I live, submerged rocks just under the surface are called "Sunkers." By the time you realize they are there, it's already sunk her!😂
great name love it........Thanks for watching
we have a few cops on jetskis here too. Never thought I'd say this about jetskis but, wish there were more of em.... enjoying your vids mate, keep em coming 👌
Thanks for watching
Do the Jetski Cops have sirens?
many years ago hired a Halvorsen cruiser for a weekend at Wisemans ferry anyway on the way we saw lots of jellies as I was looking over the stern at them one of the others gave me a push into the water then they decided it would fun to tow me through the jellies and and threw me a rope and did not stop too pick me up until there were no more jellies
I'm glad I wasn't on that trip!, they are quite solid....I hope the water was warm. Thanks for watching (check out the other videos) cheers Paul
Does the outboard regen the battery when in neutral. JB
Hi John, it's an obvious idea but this Torquedo doesn't. Apparently with electric outboards that offer that function you need at least 5 knots before before it works, cheers Paul
I notice you use moorings are there restrictions on anchoring in these areas?
Nope, I should anchor more often as the bays are mainly sandy/muddy but often only enough room for boats on the mooring. But I have checked out a few bays with no moorings so will probably go there next time if the wind is not predicted to be too strong. I suppose as I dragged anchor in a storm once and was washed ashore, I tend to grab a mooring if I see one. Thanks for watching cheers Paul
Is the jellyfish activity normal?
Yep there are thousands and up to 2ft across but they don't sting, just hit the outboard prop and go thud!
@@SailingKateLouise Oh...Thud Fish!
Great vid... Your TS is Lugsail, I have a Gaff TS.. Your rigging video helped me a lot... Similar rigging...
One question though, are all your lines run back to the cockpit?
nope only the downhaul, the other halyards are tied off on the mast. What ts do you have?
@@SailingKateLouise I have purchased a homebuilt TS named a "MudSkipper" by an designer out of Hobart. It was built by an member of the Brisbane wooden boat building club. I and my forehead hand (Wife) are still learning the ropes of her...
Her name is Oriel.
This her!

@@dougfairweather Great send me some photos and thanks for watching
@@dougfairweather Just found your video she looks great, where do you sail?
@@SailingKateLouise At the moment (as we haven't had her long and still getting used to her), at a lake named Lake Tinaroo, west of Cairns...
