Scilly is heaven on earth. There’s nowhere better in good weather. Our favourite anchorages are The Cove between Gugh and St Agnes and St Helens Pool. Great video, brings back so many good memories of when we had our 2 dogs on board with us. Actually won a prize with a pic of them both on the bow of our dinghy going ashore in the Cove. Happy days.

Brilliant! Loved it, Nothing but vicarious fun.

Incredible this place is on our doorstep! Such a rich history! Amazing

"Yeah right, fair enough".....HAD ME IN TEARS

Excellent production values -- the delightful music, a style we almost never get to hear anymore, really makes it. Fine presentation of the landscape and environs. Carly is rather irresistible, a lovely soul.

I enjoyed this so much that I liked it twice, had to like it a third time to turn the like back on. Fascinating fauna, flora and history. What a beautiful little corner of Britain!

Well done. Hank is a rock star.

Truly beautiful to see Thank you all for sharing Kindest wishes to you all 🐶⛵️😊😊 forever and more ☀️🙏🌟

Great video! The scillies are lovely!

We have done the Scillies 3 times in two boats from Portsmouth. Spot on video! It is really the Bermuda in the UK. The Gulf stream or NADC brings warm water up from the gulf of Mexico making it a frost free paradice in the Atlantic. Packed with history, The Scilly isles great maritime disaster was the catalyst and inspiration for Harrison's marine chronometers and the search for Longitude. Accurate timekeeping eventually became the basis of modern GPS! Wonderful flora and fauna, coral beaches, sandy shores. Lovely people. It's one for the bucket list for any sailor!!! Sail Safe Guys, Ant, Cid & the pooch crew.

Enjoyed the video very much. I visited England for an all-too-brief week many years ago and loved the countryside. I'm really enjoying seeing it from the coastal point of view. Many of the plants that fascinated you are common to where I live in Southern California.Thank you.

That was lovely, thanks. I loved the private barge for the walrus, and I love to see the way you care for your puppy.

Another great video! Your editing is always on point.

Just binge watched this years videos. Love the point you make about loving our coast for its own beauty rather than comparing or saying it’s like other parts of the world. Then I live on the coast overlooking Mounts Bay so I’m biased I suppose. Keep making your vids we love them. Pat Hank for us please.

Great Video! Love Hank. What a good boy. Really enjoying your channel.

Another great film thank

Fantastic Destination and video and all this on our doorstep Brilliant

Stunning

You've had some great weather. Great footage , thanks

Hi , good with lamb , sand fire . The Scilly, s are a magic place , when the weather is nice , blowing a force 5 when we were there and the swell was amazing . Another great video and Hank , letting every one know who is BOSS . A magic video and thank you .

Great view of the island and look forward to the next ones. Andy UK

The more I learn about Isles of Scilly the more I want to go there with my own boat, but it is quite far from Sweden. What a lovely dog.

We absolutely love the isles of scilly! We sail there every year on our 50ft steel ketch!

Plant at 4:44 is crocosmia (montbretia, pronounced mombreesha). Very common in hedgerows everywhere in Ireland and probably in the UK as well.

Brilliant video guys. It's definitely a beautiful place and you did St Mary's proud. Looks like Henk had a wonderful day too. What a great life you give him and then he rests dreaming about Cornish Pasties LOL. Thanks for taking the time to share

What a great storyteller you are! And such a beautiful place. And Hank is a star!!

Another lovely adventure with you two. Groovy location, groovy camera shots, two groovy people and of course, a very groovy dog named Hank.

Really really good job - thank you.

really interesting. very enjoyable

Wow what a beautiful place 👌🏼 thanks for the video, you are a lovely couple. It made me happy 😊 cheers from a cold, dark and rainy sweden 🇸🇪

That orange flower is Montbretia. A garden escape in wet areas with a mild climate like the south west. The succulent is Carpobrotus from South Africa. Both are quite invasive but undeniably attractive. I was in Porth Cressa after Wally left for Ireland.

Love the start to this video. I hope the trip over to the Sicily’s wasn’t too rough. 😬😎

Between Hank & the plants & flowers, it’s going to be great watching your videos. I love that he got to keep his “baby bed”, I had a Great Dane that completely covered hers up & it was in tatters when we finally got another one that “would do”...

Good stuff.😀👍⛵️

Another beautiful piece of filming. The way you row the dinghy kills me, pushing the oars rather than pulling them.

I mean guys. Wow. We are seeing our trip this year that didn’t happen due to electrical problems and bad weather in the first to weeks so leaving us not enough time in our month to go there and come back. We are seeing our trip through you guys. It looks so amazing there. We can’t wait to make another attempt at getting there. If and when we do we will spend three weeks there and hopefully be able able to cruise back. Love the videos guys, Hank so adorable isn’t he. I’m sorry I’m not a proper patron as I watch like a dozen channels. I do let the adverts go all the way through and I always press a like. Carly looks fab by the way.

Hard to believe that is the UK when we have been living under heavy grey skies this past week! Yep you have found a little piece of paradise on earth. Dom you may have come across some of those plants in Scottburgh KZN when you visited your holiday home. I had some in my garden in Adams Street they grow like weeds. Lovely seeing them flourishing there. Big pats for Hank. As always a treat to watch thanks to all three of you. Stay well xxx

Dude, you guys are awesome! Hank is so cool

my new fav channel .. Hank is a genius.

A lovely video of the paradise that my family and I are lucky enough to visit every year and still have the sense of excitement and joy that you showed us so beautifully. Our dogs have always hated that 'vent' on Garrison, I guess it makes a noise we can't hear? So glad to have found your channel, thanks for sharing, just about to dive into your trip to Tresco :-)

Love your musical background, it gives the video a sense of adventure. Good Luck

One of your best videos so far, guys. Thoroughly enjoyed the views and the humour. Keep it up! I notice that the boat didn't get any black marks today. You're obviously getting it sorted out.

Looks like a wonderful place. Thumbnail 👍

Great guys keep looking after the big boy hank

The Scilly Isles are so beautiful.

After hearing you in these last couple videos, I think you need to get over to the Bahamas and the Caribbean soon! lol.. Glad I found your channel. I am enjoying it. Cheers..

Indeed montbretia - also known as crocosmia - hedgerow plant in West Country and prolific under my study window here in Kent - loving your channel

I love the footage of Hank from under water...Very Scoobyesque!!!!...new word!

The "distance please" at the buoys where the walrus was... how fitting. As if she placed the sign there.

Epic.

This has got to be August/Sept recorded. A beautiful vid. I was last in the scillies Brhyer in 1953 with my 2 bros mum and dad (recently out of stalag luft 3 but not on the escape wing) Wanted to get there this year but several problems. re being ginger just keep creaming up with skin cream outherwise you will end up with multiple " liver spots" in later life . yes ive got them and i am fair skinned but not ginge. What did my dad teach me? live each day as if it is your last cos you never know what life will throw at you next. Keep making the BRILLIANT vids it is a talent I cannot do/do not have.

You two have done it… great seeing another part of the UK, a gardeners’ delight. That from someone who grew aphid farms by trying to grow roses🙂.👍👍👍 the UK actually has nice enough weather for ladies to wear bikinis? I thought the place was always shrouded in mist, storms, fog etc… all weather wet. 🙂👍

You two are great and the boat's awsome, but honestly I'm only in it for Hank. Tell him I said "Woof"... he'll know what I meant.

Drank myself stupidder on Rattler Cider on the Silly Isles whilst sailing around Britain. Lovely islands.

It's many years since I lived in Scotland and I don't recall seeing clear sea water anywhere in Britain. Thanks for the video.

Brilliant

Aye m8’s, the intro is so magnificent edited and the walrus ending isn't even hinted until the stretching at 00:39!

I lived there some 40 years ago ,visited recently ,truely ghastly,

Ok. Subbed But ONLY because you're English! Just for reference, I've watched ALL of Matt and Amy on Florence. They are GOOD. Watching some of you vids now.

That's it. I'm going to the Scillies in 2022.

Thanks for pointing out the islands with Hanks poop bag! Jk by the way. It is actually comforting to see dog owners doing the right thing and cleaning up after their dogs. If the soles of my shoes could talk they would wax poetic about those owners who don’t assume that responsibility.

That was only Hugh Town. 👍👍😄😄

Went to the Scilly Islands in September (2021) it's like you say it is like being in the Caribbean brilliant holiday My only wish is Id have discovered this years ago when I was younger and fitter 😂 You don't appreciate the full perspective unless you actually go there . St Agnes island was my favourite one out of the five my only regret is that I didn't get a photograph of myself in the clear blue waters 💦 in Hugh town at porthcressa beach ⛱️

Rock samphire used to be a staple green vegetable in days gone by even though it could be quite dangerous to gather in some places. I've found a regular supply growing near to where I live. You should see the price Waitrose charge for it.if you cook it there's no need to use salt as it's very salty already.

I love the isles of Scilly . Lived on St Martin's during the 1980s . Had to move back to the main land due to having a series of strokes in my 20s . I want to go back and visit . Even thought of buying a boat but my wife don't like the Idea. I had ideas of setting off from Porthcawl where I live go around lands end stay at Penzance and wait for ideal weather to go the the isles ? . Maybe next year .

The plant about 5 minutes in is Monbretia, and can be grown quite successfully on the mainland.

Enjoying watching your progress, seeing some of our own haunts from Poole, old Harry, mupe points west to scilly Isles. We left England 8 years ago on our SO49. 6 years in Caribbean had to come back to Europe, settled Greece atm. Colder winter here, bought Chinese heater, interested where you got your exhaust pipe lagging, couldn't find on your links. Great if you can help. Great show enjoy every moment.

Hiya, Great video from a stunning location, thank you. Napoleon was actually 5'6" tall, where he came from, a little village in Corseca still used feet and inches, but 13 inches to the foot. By their measure, he was 5'3", hence all the talk of him being small, as I'm 6'4" his real height was still small to me. Stay safe, or is that, stay tall, Steve...

I wonder if some of those trees have been introduced from the Colonies. 2.27 looks very much like Pohutukawa, 2.58 Cabbage Trees (cordyline Australis) and 5.34 Pittosporum (tenuifolium?)

aye its not easy Dom , but hang in there , the hard times should be over soon

Yep...the world needs more Hanks.

Hank the tank! 💪

The “nut tree” you fondled- possibly a type of Myoporum or pittosporum? Love the video, thank you!

Glad I’m not the only one that rows the wrong way

Deeply envious ...you must be behind real time. The weathers taken a real shift in the past week up here. Re the little fort ..Sally as in to Salle forth. As gor jellyfish what you want is a leatherback turtle. They are their preferred food...unfortunately that means they end up getting bunged up with plastic bags a lot these days. What brand of pooch is Hank BTW... apart from a re incarnated Whovian🤭😉

Thanks for taking us to areas that I have never seen!

Great video and stunning cinematography as always. Curious why the "blur out" in the last 1 minute or so of the video - to hide the name of the vessel anchored forward of you??

Strange question but love the cool bag! Where is it from?

Great stuff, although not exactly the first thing that springs to mind when someone mentioned England, more like Caribbean

May have missed it but how far are you behind. I.e what month is this from. Weather is great.

Hank eats better than I do & I'm not sailing full-time yet ,Hank can u spare a sammie??

Crocosmia. Very common in people's gardens...

Now I'm ! Home Sick ! Love you Three ! EX Pat.

Nice video. When did you film it?

👍👍👍👍👍

One of the former owners was a botanist. Flora form all over the world. Purple jellies are bad ;)

Dom, Mads is in Gosport so how about a "meet" vid?

💂‍♀️👍🔥

Hank's a very handsome dog. Is he a Hungarian Wiesla?

Where did you play rugby????

Whats behind the blurr?

: )

Fancy leaving that rope on the deck in a rats nest then blanking it out at the end........muhaaaaaa spotted!.....................great video though 😋

Did you ever serve ?

How are you guys doing

October?

You probably won't believe it but those orange flowers grow wild everywhere here in the south Island nz.

For all the flak that American beer gets, it's surprising to see one of the... least interesting beers in the US, Budweiser, for sale overseas. I would have to assume that English Budweiser has to be better than normal Budweiser. It's one of the major reasons why beer is referred to as "piss water".

Please note: It is either 'The Isles of Scilly' or just 'Scilly'. Never The Scillies or Scilly Isles.

You know your dog needs glasses yeah
