I am good at spotting hubris.

I am waiting to see what happens when that buzzbar comes into contact with sea water. As far as I am concerned it is not if but when. I think that Brian is a very smart resourceful man and I used to love watching them get breakaged fixed, but I think he has lost his head over this. He should have completely separated the positive and negative, I am horrified by this design.

Anyone else here a fan of Adventures of an Old Seadog?

It’s an aluminium boat so “completely separated” is probably optimistic at best. Better to have them in a well protected known location I’d say. I’d like to know what the equivalent stranded insulated cable would be as bare copper does feel a bit exposed.

Yes, have watched from the start. Sometimes despair at his sailing techniques but he must be doing something right. Says the man who has not left the English channel...

Barry's idea of a close call always makes me chuckle, you can tell he spends most of his time away from crowded waters

Love hm and his content but me and the bride reckon he still can’t sail it properly!

Another great channel is Erik Aanderaa - He's an unassuming Norwegian dude who sails alone in the North Sea and North Atlantic in pretty wild conditions.
