Mate, I feel your pain, I really do. I flew our new drone off the boat for the first time the other day and a whole new level of nerves came over me 😳

Sounds like it’s time to dig out sone off road tyres there matey 😉

@@CadohaAdventures lve got mud and snows on it plus an extra 2 battery's. It's when l come across styles or steps I have to turn back. I'm saving up for the caterpillar track version 😎😎😎

Ha ha, it’s pretty easy being Hanks side kick.

I think he actually did 😬😬🤫 Dough!!!!😖😢 How’s that for timing?! 🤯

Always nice to see others who share my eclectic taste in music 😬😬

I mean it’s the most effort I’ve ever made to remove plastic from the ocean, normally I’ll just pick out whatever I see when I’m walking by or in the dingy, but sadly my mission was a failure 😞

We try to be, I think Carly is naturally lovely and wholesome, I on the other hand have to work at it every day, but I hope I'm getting better and a bit softer round the edges 🤞🏼🤞🏼 Glad you enjoyed the video 😁

Funny you say that but no sooner had I let go go the weight than I thought s@*t, did I just drop that on the drone?! 😳😳😳

It’s ok, Hanks the one worth watching 😁👍🏽

Well you'll see in the next episode that we did indeed get him a much bigger box 😂

I know, how much worse could that timing have possibly been?! 😂😂😂

I feel like I’m a bit late to the party when it comes to realising how beautiful our own from yard is, but better late than never. As for recognising the events of the past, well, I always think about them. My Grandmother used to run an old folks home and when I was a little boy I used to sit with the older people who lived there and listen to them tell me about the war. I’ve always found it an incredibly fascinating time, a dark time, of course, but I always felt lucky that I had access to so many people who lived through it and fought in the great wars, when I was so young. I guess that experience as a kid forever left a mark on me.

Glad you enjoyed it, Paul. 😁

It’s about time we had a ginger Bond, you know, diversity and all that 😬😬

@@CadohaAdventures I have a ginger teddy bear! He is very cute.

No, not seen it. Is it a KZfaq vid?

@@CadohaAdventures yes its a KZfaq channel a bit crazy but funny

A very special feeling indeed, somewhere between disbelief and nausea.

Yes I agree that the dive for the drone probably wasn’t worth it, I was caving to Carlys peer group pressure. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it 😬😬

The UK gets a bad rap and the last few years seemed even worse than usual, probably because of the entire Brexit divisiveness, so it’s nice to be able to share some of the best bits 😁⛵️🦞

Awesome. We’re planning to head up the Helford River later this week sometime and we’re both really excited to check the place out! 😁🙏

We were pretty gutted truth be told, but such is life. We have now bought a much cheaper drone so we can at least still get some areal shots, but if we lose this one, it’ll sting, but it won’t £1500 sting 🤢

@@CadohaAdventures That's good news then, The drone shots are awesome and you can see over time how much more confident you have become with it. I want one. I'm going to the Scottish highlands for a week next week and it would be a great addition in the ruck sack. However Mrs. B doesn't share the enthusiasm. 😂

@@paulbeesley5743 well if you manage to wangle one, my advice would be to check these guys out if you want to get good shots!! kzfaq.info

I get that, but there’s something about the vulnerability of young creatures that makes them more endearing. I don’t especially like cats, but there’s something still quite charming about kittens.

I’m not exactly sure what happened. It was taking off as normal and then the from pitched down (which it never does) and then it just went straight into the water 😢

I'm glad you enjoy seeing it and it's very much our pleasure to share this amazing island nation with everyone 😁😁😁⛵️

It really is one of the most spectacular places in the UK

The country is just revealing her beautiful secrets to and we're simply sharing them in real (ish) time. We're very much the lucky ones 😁

I’m just reading some of Bernard Moitessiers’ work and he certainly would have feasted on such a find 🤣

Good to know, thank you ☺️

My apologies to Carly for getting her name wrong!💐

Desperate any mooring shortcomings, it’s a pretty beautiful spot to spend some time. Highly recommend it! 👍🏽

Yes a few people have said that to us now, although there was a cat in the church yard that I’m sure would have killed his chick, but I guess we’ll never know now 😕

@@CadohaAdventures Based on gulls' usual behaviour, you should've saved the cat instead. Ours gives them a wide berth, and spends the couple of months when they're wandering in and out of the garden hiding under the garden furniture to avoid attack from mum and dad.

Awesome, I'm screen shotting this tip as I have a feeling that my dunked electronics days are not quite over yet 😬😂😂

@@CadohaAdventures I've not had enough test subjects to form a scientific study for this, but I have it on good authority. Its not like the good old days of 8bit home computers, where every component was slightly off the circuit board. Nowadays, with surface mount components, there are so many little gaps where water can be held by capillary action. It's lucky that the components themselves are pretty well sealed.

Glad you enjoyed it, Mike 😁

Glad to hear you’re enjoying our humble little adventures 🙏🏼😌

@@CadohaAdventures I just discovered your channel so I've been watching everything since the beginning😂

Thanks, Jonathan, glad you enjoy the footage. I've looked into them and they may not be the worst idea ever, they just don't have the filming quality of the DJI prosumer range, but....... but, but, but, at least I won't have to go through the heart brake of seeing the drone drown again 😔

A sponsorship we’d happily accept 🤣 Such a stunning place.

Ha ha, I'm starting to get that very independent vibe down here 😁

Yes we have a condensation layer under the mattress but I'm not sure it's doing a great deal, I think the mattress would need to be lifted much higher and on slats for it to work. The insulation that we put on the walls has massively reduced condensation levels, but again it hasn't solved the issue. I think more air flow is what's needed around the entire boat to tackle dampness. I mean we shower every day, cook, breathe and exist, so I'm not sure it'll ever be completely tackled, but it's better that it was.

@@CadohaAdventures I did say in my comment section when you announced that you were using the condensation layer that it was no use. I was criticized by others who disagreed . I would like to see you video how you are getting on & it is an important part of your life aboard, so perhaps you can include your plans for dealing with it. Ikea slats seem the best solution, although I have not tried them. Others report some success & it is a cheap option. I have a self inflating mattress on my bunk, over the mattress , thus, lower mattress does not get damp. That probably will not work for your double bed situation due to the shape. Perhaps a 50mm memory foam layer on top may help. You do need to insulate the supporting wood bunk under the bed to stop the cold bridge

Hello there, Patrick, that’s really kind of you and so glad to hear you enjoy the channel. The picture you’re talking about was actually painted for us and given to us as a gift because when we first bought the boat we struggled to find some artwork to fit that space and so someone kindly painted something for us. I can take some close up pictures for you though if you’d like to have it replicated?

Ah our old stomping ground. We’re a bit further west these days, but will no doubt be back when we run out of money before the next leg 😬😬⛵️

They were, well spotted and they have since all been tightened 🙏⛵️😁

I’ve made peace with it now. Truth be told I had so many near misses over the years that I was due a crash into the sea sooner or later. I just never imagined it would be such an uneventful/ flop from simply taking off 😕

I am indeed very often left in awe by the natural world.

It really stings! 😞😞

@@CadohaAdventures ikr :(

Would that help me squeeze into it?

@@CadohaAdventures no but you start off warm with a warm water cushion against the cold water

@@Tim8mit Fair! 😂😂

@@CadohaAdventures I've seen people use the clear plastic bags, used for veggies at the grocery store, over the feet to help them slide through. I've seen talc ( not good) and also baby shampoo used to reduce the friction...the catch is that a totally dry wet suit is very hard to put on at the best of times

No, this is our first drone, hopefully the last one we lose, but I imagine that’s optimistic on my part. Going to look into putting some kind of floatation device on the next one 😌

You know you’ve made it when Mads says he’s going to ask you for advice… :)

There’s no way on earth I’m meticulous enough to qualify as a Mads helper, but I’ll suck up the imposter syndrome and give it a go 😬

After what Mads has done with Athena, I’m not sure twins would be a fair comparison anymore 🤣🤣

Ha ha, fair. I mean I snapped my leg when we got back from Scotland, then we had a pandemic and Brexit, then when we stayed in England as a result of the last two, we also discovered we lived in an amazingly stunning country and decided to slow down and enjoy what we had here before heading further afield. Besides, there didn’t seem to be many channels celebrating the best of British sailing destinations, as opposed to the 100+ videos of people feeding pigs on a beach in the Caribbean. We’ll get there but not before squeezing all the juice there is to squeeze out of old Blighty first 😁😁⛵️⛵️⛵️

@@CadohaAdventures when does the next tranche of the Trust Fund come through?

@@TheAncientMarinersBlog my mums a cleaner and my dad was a garden fencer (now retired and works sweeping the floor in a petrol station forecourt). Both my parents worked exceptionally hard so that we could grow up never feeling like we were going without (because we didn't), we are all exceptionally blue collar and my parents both worked multiple jobs, simultaneously, to keep our heads above water and able to get some of the extras out of life, like going on holiday, or having a ten year old Ford Escort that the roof comes down on, that car of my Mums alone made kids on the estate think we must be rich 😂 My Dad never knew what a day off was, and he never spent his days down the pub with his friends. He regularly came home from work, tired, broken and bleeding, but he bought everything he made back home into the house, we were very fortunate in that regard and I'll always look up to him for that. He sacrificed a lot so that his family could have the things he never did as a child. Anyway, now Carly and I work all winter (mostly manual labour), save up and then go and explore all summer. We anchor 95% of the time, almost never go out for dinner, rarely buy new clothes and instead try and live as frugally as possible to get the most out of the little money we have. It’s not a life for everyone, lots of people need savings and pensions for their own peace of mind, which is understandable, but having spent much of my adult life as a prize fighter too, taking risks and living in the moment I guess is hardwired into my DNA. A trust fund would certainly make life much easier though than stepping into a professional Muay Thai fight when you’re short on cash for the month 😂👍🏽⛵️ However we are now blessed to have so many people support us through Patreon who enjoy watching the videos and that is incredibly humbling and helps a lot, especially when it comes to being able to buy better quality equipment than we otherwise could have. Super thankful to them 🙏🏻🙏🏻😁

Coulda, shoulda, and if I’d thought about it, I probably woulda 😬😬😬

Ha ha, fair. Glad you enjoyed the video 😁🙏

Nailed it! 😬😬👍🏽

There’s no denying that fact 🤣⛵️🐕

All will be revealed later today, Jane 😁

Ha ha, he/ she wasn’t exactly the fussiest of eaters that’s for sure 😂

Ha ha, no doubt 😂

Hey please don’t apologise, firstly I appreciate any constructive feedback and secondly, if English your your second language, your handle on it is far superior to any additional language I know. I’ll be sure to take on board what you’ve said. All the best 🥃⛵️
