Glad you went to have a look. It took me a lot longer than it should have to realize that Yendys is Sydney backwards!

[@SailingKateLouise]

@@SailingKateLouise FWIW we recently "re-homed" a German Shepard who came with the given name of "Shaq" after the great basketball player Shaquille O'Neal; we have since re-named him "Shack" after the great explorer/sailor Shackleton. Both great men. But sailing (boats) interest me much more than basketball!

Hi Paul, what a delight to here how you put those words into a great story with the lovely wonderful wooden boats.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed it more sailing next time, cheers Paul

[@sailingseriously2035]

Brilliant episode…

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thank you, something different, back to sailing next time, cheers Paul

[@daleskidmore1685]

I think I have seen those boats smothered in canvass on canvass full of Rugby player types racing in Sydney harbour on Ian Smith's channel, or certainly replicas of them. They are amazing to watch. Enjoyed the readings. I keep meaning to get Shackleton's book, it was such an adventure.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks for watching Dale....nothing beats timber, cheers Paul

[@DinghyCruisingKingfisher]

Well that was fabulous Paul! As always fantastic on the camera. Loved the passages too.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Josh

[@davelawrence6777]

Thanks Paul seems you've survived the rains and flooding we've heard about on the other side of the pond

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi Dave, yep it has eased, even my sister in England had seen the floods on the news....while we are watching Boris....thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@davelawrence6777]

@@SailingKateLouise ah Boris always good entertainment about like the circus that's going on here best just to ignore politics and go sailing much better for the digestive system

[@FantomsNephew]

Contemplative, if that’s a word!

[@SailingKateLouise]

Glad you enjoyed it, cheers Paul

Excellent clip mate, love the quotes especially the Micheal B McPhee one, can you tell me if it is a stand alone quote or an extract taken from a book? For those who may not know the skiff Yendys in this clip, can be seen here on youtube racing against other prominent skiffs of the era. Great clip and you've got the voice of a narrator, this format could be a good addition to your channel

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi I've done a bit of digging and I can only find Michael B Mcphee's line as a quote, but I'm sure it must have come from a book of stories or poems. Thanks for watching again, cheers Paul

[@giauscaesar8047]

I do maintenance on the James Craig which is moored just outside that building

[@SailingKateLouise]

I might have met you a couple of weeks ago, thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@johnburgess5534]

The name YENDYS one minute into this video is SYDNEY spelt backwards. As I’m sure everyone knows. JB

[@sailingseriously2035]

I didn’t. 😂

[@SailingKateLouise]

I do now ....thanks for watching John, cheers Paul
