Hi John and Liz Mike here as Srah has the account. I was taught Green hats and White noses = Trawlers, Red hats and White noses = Fishermen, White hats and Red noses = Pilot Vessels. Enjoyed your latest episodes and nice to hear your diplomacy with other mariners has resulted in you being made so welcome. In admiration. Mike
Making progress, well done. You’ll find loads more fishing vessels further north where the north flooding tide meats the south flood maybe somewhere off Hoath. Have fun. Greystones is a great little marina south of Dublin.
It is really tricky knowing where to stop and where to pass. Lots of interestingly divergent views from locals. Will shorten distances between stops once we get to Scotland I think

Thank you Mike, very much appreciated. Trust you and Sarah are well and looking forward to your own trip.
Welcome to Ireland guys. Enjoyed all your boat lights at night and the spinnaker hoist/drop.
Thanks - there is something useful about doing this as a video for our own skills / practise
Hi John and Elizabeth, great to see your progress and Coric behaving so well. best wishes.
Thank you very much, all going pretty well so far. Getting warmer too :-)
Fantastic guys !!! Enjoy Dublin 😃🍺⛵️
We did - proper tourists :-)
Great episode, fascinating on all counts. Thank you!
Our pleasure
Really great tip about the depth contour lines.
Thanks, Nick, it was properly interesting to visit their boat and chat about their experiences. Very useful reminder never to 100 % trust your chart

There was lots of FV traffic to Sw of IOM. Thanks for the tip
Nice to see you're not using one of those hateful spinnaker socks. More trouble than they're worth.
Thanks for this and I agree. Had a bad experience with one a long time ago.
Shame you missed Ardglass and Greystones, but have fun being a tourist.
