Brilliant real world run. Knowing the fuel burn would be an interesting number and a look at the engine room is a must. More out on the water videos are always a treat.

Absolutely loved this honest video. Thank you for sharing such a private time with us and giving the bad with the good. Keep them coming.

An interestimg video for a potential boat owner... Just one small point though the actual name of the boat you were on, is "Buenas" ( Spanish and pronounced as BWAY-NAS)meaning "Good"..No wonder there was a little confusion with the port authorities..!! Jajaja

Could be wrong but on our motor yacht the two markers on the fuel is not actual and what it thinks, its the Red is your portside tank and green starboard tank level. Love the trip, we have done a few trips to the islands. I would recommend formentera ! We done a few videos of it on the channel

I’ve watched a lot of your videos and I’m really interested in buying something . But I’m not sure if I’m confident enough in handling it myself .
