#1 Move onto boat – Finally a liveaboard, optimistic plans for fortnight
Brief series of 'talking head' videos. I took two weeks holiday starting in late April 2015. Boat was more or less ready to go in the water. Plan was to take a gentle cruise from Pembrokeshire, Wales to Watchet, England. The fortnight started well, but e...

Fossil Hunt along the Watchet coastline
This Bits and Pieces playlist is just a random selection of stuff. Not that interesting really. This is me trying to find fossils on the mass of rocky shoreline that stretches out at low tide. We have up to 12 meter (39 feet ) tidal ranges here. Also tes...

Just About Sailing February 2016 – dreams of a small sailboat
I have posted this a bit early to try and tempt the weather gods to give us all even a small window to actually get out there and do some sailing. Anyway, even without going out into the channel, Serenity managed to sustain some damage from a collision wi...

Just About Sailing – The £200 Millionaire – don’t get rich quick
I couldn't decide how to best describe my financial philosophy of my Just About Sailing liveaboard lifestyle. But finally decided to do it in the form of a Hegelian dialectical dialogue. By far the simplest and most straightforward method. Think half way...

Just About Sailing January 2016 – buy a sailboat, liveaboard – easy
This is really a recap of what happened in 2015. All of my plans to do a regular video update went out of the window. I thought that if I provocatively gave the first one a title making it one of a series then it would force me to get my finger out and ...

Sailing what’s that all about then?
A few ups and downs this year (2015). My non-sailing friends don't really get it fully. I thought I'd create this just to help explain things. I felt really bad about needing a tow from the RNLI. They were brilliant and pointed out that there was not m...

Water in the Bilges
Turned out that the 'engineer' who replaced the exhaust elbows before I bought the boats had used standard jubilee clips rather than proper exhaust clamps - and not tightened them properly. Every time the engine was on it was pumping water into the bilge.
