Ha, we had been looking for a little bin in hardware stores and then saw the ice cream tub in Ullapool. Works really well and thanks for comment on the tent. Was a bit of a long shot to avoid too much steel work.

Positively palatial! I sailed a Contessa 26 for many years when I was much younger. I always wanted a 32 but families ect. I graduated to French mass produced volumn boats. Now 72, I have fonder memories of my little 26 than any other boat that I have had. Just found your channel, subscibed and liked. 👍

Thank you very much for this - contessa 26 is a lovely looking boat

Thank you for the tour of Coric. She's a lovely C32. I have an old long keeled 26 footer and how you've organised yourselves and the boat's layout has given me some inspiration. Enjoying the channel very much.

Thank you - that’s very kind

Great demonstration of how few material possessions are really needed for day to day living Lizzie. LIked the view on wasteful packaging too. You forgot to show all of us where John's whisky stash is though 😀🥃. Take care and safe sailing! Dave

Thank you for this Dave, as I think Elizabeth alluded to, we are enjoying the pared back living. Whiskey bottle, hardly lasts long enough to get stowed! (only joking, and delightfully, we added a couple of whisky glasses after the distillery tour)

Nice to see the interior ! Cruising is or should be about how little you need , not how much , so well done on the minimalist approach!!! 😍⛵️. I really enjoy your down to earth videos 😀

Thank you very much for the comment, and I wish we had shown off the inside of the boat earlier.

Hi. Here is my optimization tip: If you want to save space, cut up plastic and cardboard packaging into small pieces (5x5 cm or less). Also, store every type of garbage collection from 2-3 days in a plastic bag. Put these smaller bags in an additional bigger bag for protection to be stored outside (anchor locker, lazarette, etc.) until you can disposed of. By doing so, even with 5 people on board we could go on for 1-2 weeks without disposal on land. Good luck!

Thanks very much. Elizabeth said she thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was a pleasure to have me not talking over her.

Great tour of the boat.😀

She looks great! What's the standing headroom may I ask?

@CoricContessa32

In the centre of the saloon about 5’ 10” but much less in heads (and much much more in the cockpit) :-). Thanks for your kind words.

Much more in the cockpit, love it, they are way too small for me, but thanks... @@CoricContessa32

I'm never quite sure if there a shower on a Contessa 32? I assume the head is a wetroom?

@CoricContessa32

We have a cockpit shower which has worked well. The head has a grating that allows you to have a “bird bath”

Ablutions? Are you a 14th century monk?

May i ask your length please ? Im 1:80 cm and want to know if i can stand properly in the living room
