1. Well done keeping calm under pressure. Loved the I’m living the dream comment when it’s all falling apart around you

2. You're suffering from an over-dependency on engine. We've all done it just, put up the sails when there is any wind, and shut off that stinking motor. I see it so windy, your beard is blowing around, yet your motoring.

3. Did you bother to get any RYA quals or have you just learnt through the school of hard knocks?

4. Thanks

5. I never close the saildrive seacock to swap impeller. Assuming your sea-water strainer is above waterline, just take the cap off it and it will break the syphon effect. Then when the impeller faceplate is all refitted, pour a few cups of water into the strainer to purge it and put the cap back on.

6. Well done Terry mate

7. Terry, in this episode you became a mariner, juggling multiple issues, navigation, wind engine issues and personal safety. you have come so far, from the early days. Well done,

8. I think adventurous times are actually good for you Terry. You enjoy a challenge as it focuses your mind. Lots of sailors are drawn by it I think. But what do I know.

9. you fixed it on the go ? u animal. Soo impresed!

10. Seemed a boat a 9 and a half tbw…..

    Abstract x

11. Love your vlogs, thanks so much for posting x

12. Fuck me that whole issue was handled like a pro…

    Bumbles growing up xx

13. File this one under "eventful" Good job!
    Side note: remember, those wind turbine blades are probably 100+ feet above the water; probably a bit more wind up there.

14. How much would it cost for a AIS?

15. I did a double take-when you said you were going to speak to us about routing.
    
    As a Kiwi, I thought for a moment you'd said "rooting", and we were about to be regaled with too much information about some of your activities in Newcastle. (Only for a moment)

16. Hi. You do a lot of touching wood. Maybe a wooden boat would of suited you better

17. Get yourself a tiller clutch and you won't have to heave to to check of fill your fuel!!!!!

18. Let us know if you come into Eastbourne sovereign harbour

19. Awesome. Your inspiring generations

20. Hi captain great to see you agin

21. Bit concerned when you said you were going to talk about rooting Relieved when you talked about routing instead.

22. Goodjob you can’t ask anymore than that

23. Great job Terry. You handled all of that very well. You really have come a long way both in distance and in experience!

24. … good progress mate.

    which coastal guides are you using for your trip?

25. Love to your bumbling

26. Yo no soy marinara, soy capitan terry.

27. Terry, you have done extremely well. You have had a lot of situations to decide and deal with. A lot of professional skippers wouldn’t have done what you have put up with. When things go wrong you can’t shut the door and walk away. You stayed with it and found away around the problem. WELL DONE SIR

28. I've got about 50 bucks, and about 200 dollars of responsibility, so you're not alone in that. What I do have is your wonderful videos, and that is keeping me sailing right now. So thank you.

29. Highly recommend a stop over in wells next the sea, great little town, and if it wasn't the off season which means I'm back in Doncaster I would buy you a pint!!

30. i think you need more sleep pal

31. I guess you’re stopping if you will dock quite a lot these days, maybe should’ve bought a motorboat

32. Had multiple problems. Thought of solutions with what you had available and executed those solutions with a succesful outcome. Can't ask for more than that when alone at sea. Ok maybe the perfect wind from the perfect angle along with sunshine, dolphins and bio luminescence but maybe i ask for too much.

33. Solo sailing, wow.

34. If you’re burning through impellers- check the impeller housing. It may be worn a little. There is a little lobe in the housing which can get worn. If it’s worn, it causes the impeller to struggle, especially if you have a partial blockage. The engine can’t draw enough water. This causes the impeller to over heat and disintegrate.
    We had it about 6 times on an old westerly consort.

35. Hi Terry, great video!! As for the impellor, always recover or at least be aware of the missing impellor blades as these can block some of the water ways within the engine/heat exchanger. This happened to a friend of mine, in his case the engine over heated as well as the gearbox. The gearbox breather had rusted shut causing a pressure build up, this blew the O/P shaft seal out as well as all of its oil seizing the gearbox. This all happened within a wild storm out in the Med.

36. Are you in a rush? Why not save the engine until you need it mate?

37. What an exciting and scary adventure you're on.

38. Well-done. You've come so far since day 1.

    Hope you managed to trace where the broken impeller fins went to? If they're stuck inside the heat exchanger you'll have to remove them or else your engine will overheat.

39. You got there Terry. Kept a level head and you got in, well done mate.

40. i am located in the south of norway i dont understand how you can chance your way through sailing the way you do its like all or nothing i have 100liters fuel on a 20hp plus 100 liters water but be dammed if i would only sail like that i have 50liters fuel x 2 jerry cans and 50 liters extra water x25 i have food mix with water soup in a packet and so on i would be a wreck looking for a place for it to go all wrong if i was in his shoes bloody hell and ps i have the raymarine a700 ais and the icom with built in ais also a a back up and kinda radar clock so if someone come within my rang mater the alarm go,s off to wake me up basically this is not a car you can stick up a red triangle and say outta fuel giv us a lift m8 haha

41. well done Tery – what an adventure and you the handled the situation like a pro

42. I've registered earlier and have been with you from your first boat. Good luck.

43. Uncle Albert goes sailing
