We leave Belfast Lough and head back to Liverpool, getting a mix of weather and sea. We also plan our new solar arch and get a welcome committee of dolphins!...

okay so we're getting in five oh five

knots there and we're getting a seven

through the water

[Music]

which part a character Liverpool as my

credit card had expired and the new one

was at my flat in Liverpool we pass

through Copeland signed in calm water

but still getting several knots of tidal

assistance to that it was just a matter

of hoisting the sails and heading for

the Isle of Man

[Music]

no very flashy and we've just got the

the Jenny on the two wreaths

so it's not a not grave one wreath so we

have little dots on ours so the one dot

means it's first read whereas to doctors

secondary so but the thing is the sales

been balanced which is really good this

is what it's about

say well we've reached that part of the

evening real is virtually new ended all

say is just like big rolling jelly light

swells

[Music]

you seem

[Music]

see the number of dolphins our purposes

possibly will minke whale

[Music]

yattaman is over there in the distance

under the Clyde and we've just got two

hours to go with this long line would

gently rolling swell we're getting it's

not pleasant

[Music]

it's your forecast for the next day it

was still windy in the marina but at

least we did not have yet fruit leaves

to contend with

well the prototype it again for this

time it's an idea so we're all we've

done is we this wonderful

[Music]

so after prototyping we move to the

advanced modeling stage of the project

and so the advanced computer modeling

goes on down below decks so that's one

corner of one arch this is highly

technical stuff do not attempt this at

home this is all being done by a trained

professional in dreams and you laughed

at my ready prototype in of course it's

all these are laugh at somebody else's

yeah you're using matches for this

prototype yeah so there's one part of

the sort sort of arch debate yeah you

really pulled my leg my shower curtain

it wasn't a shower curtain it was a

storm curtain I know I mean it the sort

of arch construction needs a bit of

reinforcement

yeah but I mean the idea of a storm

curtains I'd only ridiculous bro this on

the other hand it's not it's not

pretension to be anything other than a

model so the idea is that the idea is

that this bit gets mitered on the back

of salty last on a couple of brackets to

go back at 60 degrees the backstay will

then come down here through there and

thus be out of the way and this bit here

will be mounted on the transom and cut

to such a length it it can then go there

and we will have some stays join them to

mike the two together so that they

become rigid this is wholly complex work

you know there's only a few people in

the world capable of such technical

modeling but you need a prototype and

then you can look see what it's like and

then yes his approach type made out of

matchsticks possibly so the two arches

will then be joined by these struts up

here there will be some struts on the

side too but there are limits to my

models kit some limits but you get the

idea

we're gonna make these struts so that

this would be the ones at the back this

would be the one that's 60 degrees yeah

and they'll be in a frame for solar

panel the other thing we want a mounted

on there is aa stern right stone light

would go on about here but it would be

minded high-ups the thing you would be

doing here summer up against this and

there might even be room for a wind

generator to sit here and an a is area

to sit here o solar panel would be on

top of a a mic that was set on top of

these struts yeah and that is the highly

technical plan so have you missed it

your Outlook it all come together

he bumped into some friends and had a

bit of a chat next day look good so

[Music]

[Music]

there's a few people behind us

[Music]

yeah I just want to say that this rather

sporting little sea state is slight

we arrived at CAF signed a notoriously

tricky stretch of water and waited for

the slack water period to commence once

that happened it was fill speed ahead

[Music]

well you say before it was against the

water for us you can see that it's

guarding that rock yes as soon as Mary 3

we went close the Spanish had to avoid

currents near the signed and then we

traveled through the night back toward

never felt spending our time watching

the bioluminescence in the stars

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

this jacket is

frança journeys like a story of a

journey because I was a brownie leader

for many years but had loads of badges

from being a brownie leader I decided to

have a jacket and these badges to

describe a journey so it's not enough to

lock down here this was this was a hot

trend through the Caledonian canal to

San fails there's current burgers and

those valves go down after the dolphins

we made the long journey down Queen's

Channel and back into the Mersey and

then to Liverpool Marina
