We are Mandy & Gordon, a married couple, living in the Channel Islands. We are trying to spend more time sailing our Westerly Oceanranger 38, Fortrose III, in & around our local waters. Our aim is twofold, firstly to showcase the beautiful waters surrounding the Channel Islands, Normandy, Brittany and the French North Atlantic coast, to hopefully encourage skippers to see just how accessible our waters are, and secondly to prove to our children and grand-children that there's life in us yet........

We did exactly the same route when we checked out, could of done with your video😂 Just need to time it for when ferrys arrive as not always staffed!
Really enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing the passage.
Where was that?
Elizabeth marina, St Helier, Jersey. British Channel Islands.
À emporter.
We're planning to go from Saint Quay to Lizardrieux next week so we watched your video. Out of interest I looked you up on Marine Traffic only to find you on the River Trieux right now 😀 Enjoy !
Hey!! life's odd sometimes with its coincidences. we had a brilliant stay...again.....we really enjoy staying at anchor in the river Trieux, the village of Louguivy De La Mer is a lovely spot for a dinghy day trip.
@@conyermud1 And by way of another coincidence, we just arrived in the river Trieux this afternoon.
@@freakent have a fabulous time.
Nice rest. Many similar moments in future. I greet
Very nice film, you both look wonderful, interesting the move down river. Thank you for showing me. Nice boat. Love and lots of it Rossington at home Cornwall. Kisses thee X see you in the summer Mac x
Just found your channel thanks great films
These videos are great. Studying day skipper theory online in China, practical in Portimao next March. Plan to buy a small boat and sail Channel Islands and Brittany one day! Also follow Sailing Gently.
Thanks for the kind words. If you get to these waters, look us up and I’ll give you a run down of the more secret spots.
Fantastic video, such a lovely area. When we stayed there it was very rolly overnight 😂 Went back to mooring bouys by sea wall, much smoother😊
Thank you for your lovely video. Disaster averted! It could happen to any of us and glad ot didnt spoil your trip. All the best
Thanks for the kind comments, Treguier is a magical destination.
Thank you…..it’s appreciated.
Thsnkyou that was delightful and informative. Best wishes
Good god, what a palaver!
What a beautifully made video... Thank you for sharing!
Lovely conditions. I’m there in May to catch up with my better half’s family. Looking forward to it. I’m out very early tomorrow so hope to get the same mirror sea 👍
Nice video! How do you find the Ocean Ranger? Its on my short list at the moment. Any loves and hates? A boat tour would be great.
Hi, we really like the oceanranger, she’s got an easy motion & settles into the groove well. Engine access is brilliant, headroom massive, I’m 6’4” & there’s plenty of room. The services locker ends up being a dumping ground for anything you can’t find a home for, the fridge is big but set back into the work surface a long way, my wife can’t reach the bottom of it !! The engine is 28hp, small by modern standards but plenty of power. We’ve not regretted buying ours.
Love Sark - and Guernsey - been there many times - Dixcart bay is my favourite spot to anchor!
I really enjoyed that, thank you. You are sailing my dream boat! Lucky you! Best wishes
Now that's the life.
Just incredible 😍
Happy birthday 👏🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🌊🚣🏼♀️🛥🛳⛴🚤⚓️🎂
We were also in this marina before COVID-19! We were on pontoon E-19, our boat is called Surfer Girl 2!
What a beautiful place on a beautiful day.👍🏴
Awesome, absolutely awesome.
Lovely
Good job 👍🏻👍🏻
‘As I’d been up all night having an emergency at sea’ lol brilliant video guys! Sounds very hair raising but you both seem so relaxed! Very jealous of your beautiful views ☺️
See this is for sale now, how come? What you trade in for?
Hi Jack, we've bought a yacht so sadly it's time for 'Dog to go. No trade in just a straight sale on this one.
That was cool !
That’s great!! Very good quality... Can see our house clear as a bell.. cheers dude What drone is it ?
lettucejam1 Its a DJI Phantom 3 Standard. Good piece of kit.
Excellent video ! Am interested in starting motorboating with your size boat. What is tge most appropriate course to do to use the boat from uk to France please ?
Intermediate powerboat is a good start, RYA have all the details.
