I live in New Zealand and I really enjoy your videos. Sadly I no longer have a sailing boat bit your experiences really remind me of my sailing exploits around the Hauraki Gulf and other places in the North Island

Howdy brothers! I would like to suggest granulated ginger for sea sickness. You’ll find it at almost any grocery store. Just shake a few granules out (no more than half teaspoon) and swallow them. It’s good! Tastes like spicy candy to me. It’ll help take care of that queasy feeling and it’s natural.

Admiral Lord Nelson got seasick all the time. Just tell those yahoos to shut their pie-holes. In my experience it is usually said by those who have never been at sea in the first place!

the number of times I’ve had my anchor alarm go off as I’m on the tender leaving the boat!

Hi lads,
I’m back watching around Britain again
I’m curious about how much fuel you used on this around Britain trip?
I’m sure Luke would have recorded the amount somewhere
Thanks

Just a little input regards priority at sea,….. Commercial boats and ships have priority over pleasure boats, I suspect the skipper of the boat in the video was being considerate after seeing you.
Motorised pleasure boats have to give way to sailboats when sailboat is under sail power, but the rule is starboard has right of way if both are under engine power….. if both are under sail, the yacht nearest the wind must give way to the one downwind of it.

It’s been a while since I read any theory, but I seem to remember that being the official way of determining things

This video makes me want to explore Scotland, it's beautiful there... Thanks for sharing!

When I was 16 I spent a month on a Canadian ship as a civilian cadet. I remember loosing my lunch in the head right alongside men who had been at sea for thirty years, it's no big deal.

"it is what it is..." Although ships under sail have the right of way, it takes a brave sailor to always put that rite to the test. Take care rather than take for granted. Anchors aweigh!

Anyone who says “you shouldn’t get seasick, you are a sailor” obviously has never been on a boat. Firstly how on earth would you get seasick if you are not sailing? Secondly there is absolutely no shame or embarrassment about getting seasick. There are many lifelong sailors who suddenly experience seasickness without warning or having done so previously. It’s involuntary, and is to do with the disparity between what your eyes tell you brain and what your balance mechanism in your ears is feeling. It can hit any sailor at any time regardless of experience or skill.

Anyone criticising you for it is, frankly, an imbecile.

Just a point of fact, you say “sail always has priority over power”, not quite accurate. Some large ships are restricted by their ability to manoeuvre or can be restricted by draft in the channel so cannot move out of your way. Best course of action is to hail them on the vhf and confirm intentions.
