You Must have a Bullenstander (Preventer)
Well done. Solo is challenging. What type of windvane is that?
Awesome mate! I really felt your worries and focus. Almost like being there. Well done and good luck.
I was at the helm overnight from St.Malo to Dartmouth when our skipper came on deck and asked if we were making good headway . Not sure , I answered but I'm sure I've seen that wave before .
Very brave and puts my concerns around my boating in Leitrim into perspective. Best wishes for the remainder of the journey.
These are the kinds of sailing videos that I have been looking for. Real content, about real sailing. I know that your single-handed, and so filming and working at the same time is not easy, but if you do get the chance to set your camera up so that we can see you trim your boat, that would definitely be worth doing.
Nice one .well done
Well done great video looking forward to part 2 👏
Good job…nice to find another solo sailor. Subbed.
I really enjoy watching your honest approach to making these videos. Confronting ones fears and lack of confidence in certain circumstances is refreshing to see. Good luck
Well done! Good video. Thank you.
Epic sir just incredibly epic you're doing what many people dream of doing bless you on your journey you're my hero
Hi From Co Down Norniron..just discovered your Channel.. loving it. Travelling under sail vicariously 😁😁👍 Happy travels. Ian &Dee.
I love the idea of sailing like this but I'm a little long in the tooth now …….how the hell do people solo around the world ?????
Excellent videos well done I envy your ability to sail offshore single handed I have just sailed around the UK single handed but only day sailing.Best wishes Mike
Hey mark well done. I’m so sorry as lost the piece of paper with you details. Great video. Well done brendan.
Sailed Biscay in Oct ,terrifying A sub popped up in middle on no where amazing. Never seen such big waves ,not ashamed to say praying for darknes to not see the sea
Thsnks for great video.
Please tell – what is your sailing boat type and size?
Great video(s), and I'm following along what looks like a great adventure. I'm out of Malahide myself and would love to start doing some solo stuff if/when I could find the time…
beautiful boat Halmatic is
A few Halmatic 30s have crossed the pond and back, she looks quite stable considering wind and waves. Good to listen to how you settled into the 15 min routine.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Really inspiring as I get ready for my own solo journey.
Brilliant that's good sailing the boats are designed from a lot of experience and trust in that is what we do as sailors
Really enjoyed watching your travels. Looking forwards to part 2!
Grass roots sailing, no boat tour, no personal context, just a man on a boat on the deep. Slocum couldn’t have done it grittier. Ripper mate🤙⛵️
Thanx a lot for these special impressions from Your trip across the Celtic Sea. It‘s great fun and entertainment, but also lessons learning watching this. Thank You very much and Good Luck all the way!
Can I ask how you are steering the tiller bar? Have you attached to the wind rudder at the back?
Great video, hats off doing solo, 15:30 –15:37 just sat pissing myself laughing as you commented all going well etc and the noise in the background of all your gear flying around the salon and you are calm. Brilliant. Definitely watching more, keep it up. Safe travels.
Great videos!! Just got into sailing having my first try tomorrow. Be great to know more about the boat and your background, these videos are making me want a boat !
I really enjoyed this first video, just a bit of chat and sailing then repeat. No nonsense.
…a dolphin to escort you out…perfect omen…
Just stumbled across this. Excellent viewing and thank you for going to the trouble of sharing.
How did you solve the single handed insurance conundrum?
Pure exhilaration on that sunny Spanish arrival. Your emotions leapt right off our viewing screens … and made us a part of it all. 👍🇨🇦
Store the liferaft BELOW decks. So often, when a storm hits, if the liferaft is outside it is swept away? Fair winds.
Did you only have the one solar panel? if so how many watts was it? And was it enough???
Great sailing
A cool head
I recall crossing Biscay circa 1950 in a destroyer and HMS Glory (aircraft carrier) passed us shipping water over her flightdeck and she reported us as being a submarine, gets a trifle rough at times.
I'd be shit scared in them seas but nothing ventured nothing gained.just rewatched that again.love the genuine fear and excitement.
Loved watching your sail bud, gee I miss my westerly, still retirements just around the corner and maybe another sail boat,
