    This little 3-parter could EASILY be titled "How To Make Someone Smile" as that's almost all I found myself doing throughout. I appreciate your channel for it's all about - truly. Even tho it's just to day dream and enjoy learning what's out there. I grew up around the water and lately I find myself missing it as I get o***r (shhhh - don't say it).
    But in these times when it's harder to find causes to smile with all the strife of covid and all that is going on in the USA, THESE videos made me. I found myself just enjoying watching you both enjoy your life. I'm sure you appreciate how blessed you are - even though I know you've worked hard to get where you are.
    I hope you have an awesome day - thank you VERY much for the smiles you've given me today.
    Keep Up The Good Work!!!

    I laughed out loud when you said 3rd time lucky. One invariably finds when attempting to manouvre a boat in close confines that a coach party or large group of tourists will turn up and stop in their tracks to watch you, providing just that little bit of encouragement/stress that you need

    Rather rarely would I ever feel genuinely happy for someone I don't even know or seen but it is the very case with Nick. Such a lovely couple with passion for boating I can relate to. Greetings from Bulgaria :)
    P.S. Nick, do you happen to know the amount of fuel the boat "drank" for this particular trip ? Distance-wise it seems like enough for most people wanting to cruise around the coast for a day trip.

    • @AQUAHOLIC

      @@miketonner3094 yes you can mate. Without question. Always check in with the harbour master as there may be a small fee to dock but often you can just moor, grab a drink and head off.
      Edit: unless you’re in Italy in which case they’ll hammer you for even going near one of their marinas lol
      Nah just kidding. But some of them are very selective, require pre booking and will sting you financially. That’s rare though.

    Really enjoyed these 3 episodes. As I mentioned before, it brought back lots of happy memories of boating with my parents. We used to moor up on the visitor berths on the left as you enter Torquay. Not sure they’re visitor berths anymore. We visited 94-98 and I was always allowed to take our tender out for a blast over to brixham...first bit of teenage independence. Thanks for taking the time for sharing your day!
