Our dinghy - Salty Sausage - has had a long rest over the winter, slumbering in her dinghy bag. The time has come for her to earn her keep. ----- About us --

well we've left poor Alan and we're off
to gear and it's a bit of a shame that
there was no wind
so we're motoring gam at the moment but
I've got a whole load of rare ropes that
just need a bit of TLC so well it's like
this I might as well get on with that
[Music]
yeah
should dare to use that that's not joy
being whipped in private and in for a
penny in for a pound we've done two
whippings we've sorted out a new route
for mr. blue and we've been problems
with our fender step so we're getting
rid of this old what called bamboo shows
the old cord this all Dyneema which is a
stiffest cardboard yeah and it's just
not holding the not any longer
so he's Neptune the other day and our
food kept going down and one of us
nearly went off the button into the
readers because not give we're pretty
good moment yeah that was me again okay
but we've got this lovely if no stuff so
we'll use it and yes I know it of course
all wearing everything whereas I it's on
a boat but when it's not a big deal
Beverly's become a convert to the
halyard not so how the heck do you do
one of those bad like this
right there right there I wanna see what
you do then and then basically you hang
her victim until he's dead dead dead
[Laughter]
[Music]
it does look rather good thing huh so
please try and do that a little bit
slower bad I actually want to know what
you do right the tip worms was doing the
stomach
because hope rind need a bit more like
who's up rind over itself locking this
it locks it so this is locked up here
yeah so yes I think we post the same way
are we both yes we'll use the engine to
get where we go in but you know what
it's
[Laughter]
[Applause]
well this is a mooring just stuff geeker
island and as you can see there's
mooring the right proper mooring field
this and you can anchor which is what
that yacht over there is doing he's
anchoring perhaps just finishing off the
putting the sail bag on there's a ferry
here but in comparison to the Mersey it
should be oh right it's absolutely
nothing but yeah this is a little
mooring just off the boat off an island
off geeker island and we always try and
little do a little challenge at all our
little things and it's not particularly
big challenge and over we haven't had
salty sausage off the back of the boat
for a long time
so we've got to get salty sausage down
so that we can go and explore this
little island a kikah I think that
should be good fun
[Music]
about later the weather improved and we
went out for dinner getting a bite free
products and as far as we're concerned
that's a darn good thing this is the
hotel that we could see from the up we
actually thought it was a church with a
sort of low building with the long
windows but no it's actually the year
hotel
oh well Bev and I are just here at this
little pink dot while this pink vessel
here in the middle of the Straits is our
fat friend Patrick claim from it's just
from Patrick Lane isn't it Bev yes this
channel Patrick Lane Bev just gave him a
shout-out but I forgot to press record
but we had a nice conversation and as
you can see he's sailing there and we're
just here the time had come to move on
so salty sausage was hoisted back aboard
and secured in her straps
[Music]
so then gainer grungy motor because the
wind is
and every yacht we've seen today has
been under motor hasn't it
[Music]
it looks wing and as an ear that looks
like it belongs in wheels not Scotland
there's something like Tabor like here's
something like I just point out by the
way that Captain Picard and Captain Kirk
never did a Hans turn they just said
things like mr. Worf engage and you know
a Minuteman round around below decks
fish defies and levers and yet it all
happened they just sort of sit there
drinking the coffee going well we're in
we're on the visitor and we're on the
visitor mooring and I have to say it is
absolutely beautiful here very
picturesque somebody was asking us why
we do videos I'll tell you now we're
certainly not in it for the money not
two hundred and whatever subscribers but
what you did get did you get
opportunities and you never know what an
opportunity might be but tonight's
opportunity is to go and meet some
people who I've never met before but the
contacted us through our Facebook page
and we're gonna go meet them
why not well we're off again
and we're gonna go over to that boat
there want to see some friends
unfortunately they weren't aboard we're
wandering around this morning field what
they used to redo the moorings with well
Bob and I had a lovely time on the
seminole I probably drank a little bit
too much but that's normal to me
but ah yeah we had a lovely time and
they showed us some lovely Anchorage's
and things like that and I think that's
what I'm gonna be gonna do next is we're
gonna challenge ourselves to do some
anchoring cuz we haven't done anything
anchoring this year we've done some but
we were saddling up we're saddling up
the anchor and we did some we've done to
mooring fields now so I think that's
what we're gonna challenge ourselves to
do next
that's a nice question there's a lot of
nice places that sound like a really
nice place one can so let's see what
we're gonna do next
Pat started to make broth for dinner
when something cropped up yeah we found
one of the Fiats room so we're gonna go
and save Bev's gonna go and say hello to
them
Beverly and I are hoping to buy a chart
because what I currently have of this
area is a disgrace I know we've got the
electronic charts but I really do like a
good chart you back then
just got to put the sausage away now
look at this
doesn't always go according to plan
deliver
another bonus dinner was ready
[Music]
