1. Awwww that is sweet. Your first time sailing! Best part of it is indeed when the engine shuts off and everyhing is just silent

2. To stop mainsail cars dropping out of track you can by a sail track stopper. Make life a lot easier. All the best.

3. Arrrr

   Amazing to see you sailing.

   And the rest won’t be terrifying.

4. Hey Terry, you'll have to learn to make a perfect Cleat Hitch!! Verry dangerous the way you did it.Greetz from Belgium. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaF9lFn0Inw

5. Is it just me or is the mast bent over a lot ?

6. Well done fella. Looking forward to your Tahiti episodes next year.

7. What was the hardest part of sailing for the first time?

8. Brilliant!

9. Lifejackets????

10. Love your channel and your honesty. Gotta start somewhere. You did good.

11. Don't know why the algorithm decided I should watch this because I had no interest in boats. Although thats changed a bit, at least watching while you at it, it looks fun so maybe Im an armchair sailor 😉 I'll stick arount for a while and see how it goes with you
    Just one thing, aren't you being a bit daft not wearing a life jacket, at least until you get your 'sea legs'. safety 3rd and all that.

12. 😂😂😂😂 the clip dragged on but everyone was glued to the screen watching a “speeding yacht” sit still in the water. 😂😂 I’m sure I saw a leaf gently float past…then float back the other way 2 minutes later. 😂😂.

    All good Bruv. Enjoy the peace and quiet. 👍

13. Harness Bruv. Screw in to the mast a small D shaped fixing so that you can attach a carribeener on a lanyard to it from your harness. That way while you’re learning you will feel more secure and confident when doing those tasks.
    Once you get your balance better this task and others like it will be easier. I’d also be in bare feet. You can feel your way through your balance better. With shoes you have zero feedback. Ditch them straight away while you’re learning. You don’t want them on if you do take a swim anyway. Or get those five fingered shoes if it’s too cold up there.
    Those “things” you had on are not for sailing…😂.

14. Loving your channel! Great to see someone normal living the dream!

15. I didn't see you tighten your kicker. Easily forgotten but makes all the difference. Plus, no need to put so many turns on your cleats, it just wastes time and fills them up.
    Stick with it, keep up the good work.

16. When putting the main up put two turn wraps on the winch drum face forward tail it with left hand swig up the main haliyard with right hand leaning backwards to get the luff tight.

17. Super happy for you! No better feeling than your first sail on your first boat. You have already sailed single-handed, and I haven't, so you are already doing things I never have!

18. I've seen through your shtick Mr. Bumble, and you are no bumbling sailor.
    I've just watched 1 through 4 (skipping the stove) and from the initial electrical fitting to the walk around you know EXACTLY what you are doing (charging systems for lead acid/lithium!). Looking forward to number 5 and working my way up to present.🙂

19. Your head is the same shape as the cabin opening…

20. Nice!

21. nice to see you learned some very valuable skills with him as you have made three stops since and without incident so all the best from john from rugby uk.

22. Fabulous. Good on you .

23. R'reet Terry, New subscriber ower from shiphappens, I've been binge watching quite a few of your vids to catch up & it's amazing what you're doing, I'm from same neck o the woods as you, Atherton & only water I've been on is the Leeds Liverpool canal on a narrow boat weekend from just outside Chorley to Burnley lol.
    It were like watching Duran Duran singing 'Her name is Rio' when you were putting them sails up 😁😄

24. Where’s ya life jacket

25. Best sailing advice I ever got came to me from my grandfather and now I say it to you "if the waters rough and you don't know what to do….for God sakes man heave too!" LOL it'll save ur ass in bad squalls

26. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

27. Great show! Excellent sailing! Now, reefing is very important. There is an old saying: If you think it's time to reef, its already too late. I've been in that position once, and had to reef on a bucking bronco. This is very important: Your sail has reinforced grommets on it at reefing points. You need to feed a rope through those eyes, with about a foot dangling on each side. You can just put a knot of both sides of the sail, and leave them on. Your sail was missing these ties. When you reef, you lower it to the reefing point, flake the sail, and the ropes will be dangling, ready to be tied to the boom. Neatness counts in this instance because it can save your life. Do not let the sail billow out below. That is very dangerous if its catching wind. Thanks for sharing. A first sail is special.

28. Just found your channel today and binge watched upto here!
    Best video yet! Awesome to see the boat out and you seeing the work pay off!

29. Well done! you are doing what I only dream of. The seven sisters look great as you sail past them.

30. Looks like a lot of work but a lot of fun once you get the hang of it! I hope by now you've invested in a life vest and have gotten into the habit of using a leash while on deck messin about with your sails and whatnot. You'll be hatin the view of the stern as your left bobbing in the water.

31. Helps to have all halyards and downhauls back to cockpit.

32. Seen both the videos. Both are worth watching 😉

33. Hmmm, I think I’ll go to sleep now…
