We finally untie the lines and leave the harbor! The maiden voyage of our historic trawler was a big adventure.
We had some engine problems and not everything worked out according to plan.
However we really enjoyed the first journey on our huge steel boat!
Flying Coney is an 82ft long historic steel ship. And we bring her back to live as the beautiful sailing ship she once was. When we are done with the refit we want to sail the ocean together with you and teach traditional sailing skills.

The joys and the thrills of moving a boat!

Good to have an infrared temp gun in your hand when you go in a boat engine room.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Good advice! Thanks.

@827SLi 2 месяца назад

Flying Coney wasn't built with a bow or stern thruster, and whilst they would greatly assist manovering, they are not cheap to install. Give Daniel all the credit!. There are video's of him manovering the boat precisely in and away from the dock without one!

It was nice to see Barbara in a dress during her narration. Good luck on the beginning of your adventures. Shout out to the volunteers for all their expertise and hard work.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

I love that dress too! It's quite hard to find dresses that fit her shape. It's important for us that Flying Coney is a learning platform and we did learn a lot from our volunteers. But when it comes to rope handling and maneuvering I'm sure they also learned quite a lot.

@alanmorris7634 2 месяца назад

It will be good to keep track of temperatures and pressures as you get more familiar with the engine under load. Barbara is certainly up to that task. Great job Captain, Chief Engineer and crew 👍

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

I think the video shows how cautious we are and that we really try not to damage anything. After all it was just a bit of oil and residue forming a bit of smoke in the engine room. We constantly checked the temperature of the engine and we were a bit surprised how cold the water was that returned from the keel cooling. We just need to get familiar with Flying Coney. Thanks for your comment!

@Nerd3927 2 месяца назад

What an excellent seamanship, talking true every situation, making sure all the crew are on the same page. Well done! Good vibe onboard too. I will sail with you any time.

@davehayes8812 Месяц назад

Fantastic to see Flying Coney on the move. Blessing to you all.

@daviddevere8606 2 месяца назад

As a note, you can never take a mooring in front of behind a lock. Those mooring places are only for boats waiting to use the lock. Good job asking the lock keeper for permission, however, the answer will always be no. Also it is always best to have breakfast before setting off. I tell my crew when we will depart in the morning, the coffee is fresh beforehand and it is their responsibility to eat or not. Bon voyages!

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Well last time we waited for over two hours to be finally forwarded through. Always empty there and the commercial barges sometimes make fast for a few hours. Must be different regulations. There also was a reason why we left without the breakfast. It was forecasted that the wind picking up and getting out from the berth was a bit tricky. Not enough water underneath the keel and a stone wave breaker in case you mess it up.

@timpeduiker4660 2 месяца назад

In the Netherlands it's sometimes possible but it really depends. So in my experience (I sail on the bruine vloot) you should always assume a no and if you ask nicely you sometimes get a yes but usually you have to have a good reason for it.

@kevinmartin3859 2 месяца назад

Well done with the alarm and safe journey 😊😊

@Nerd3927 2 месяца назад

Not other rules... Most cases it is better to ask for forgiveness then to ask for permission:-)

@wombatone5577 2 месяца назад

It was good to discuss the procedure for docking with the crew. There are many issues for the crew to become familiar with. It is a great opportunity to test each other In maritime operations learning. Having fun while learning. Plenty of food and coffee. Cheers to you all!

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Exactly. It's the whole purpose of the Flying Coney project to provide a learning platform and to teach skills. For example how to handle slightly larger docking lines or how to maneuver a boat without a bow thruster.

@lovingcars 2 месяца назад

You guys are definitely on the right track. It's a massive project, but what a beauty of a boat

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Step by step! She really is a beauty but at the moment not many people can see what we see. We've planned a few alterations this year that will improve the look quite a bit.

@robertsmith2319 Месяц назад

Good work all of you! A pleasure to see the old girl underway. Thank you for filming the chart, it makes it easier to understand where you are going. This is a great channel, keep up the good work.

@FlyingConey Месяц назад

We do our best to put an animated chart in the next video. This time we ran a bit out of time. Thanks for watching!

@robreibel3491 2 месяца назад

@deanmills5106 2 месяца назад

It must be very rewarding to finally set sail, congratulations well done.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

We really can't wait to really have the sails up there. Until then a bit of sailing under engine must do the trick. But that's already a big improvement.

@stevejohnstonbaugh9171 2 месяца назад

Congratulations to you! I'm so happy you were able to make the first leg of your journey without incident. All the best to you and your volunteers. Such an exciting project! Thank you for letting me follow on!

@loganholmberg2295 14 дней назад

Since its a single screw ship have you guys ever thought about retrofiting a bow thruster into the hull? Its got to make handling a ship that size in port much less demanding.

@ozenfant_ozn 2 месяца назад

smooth sailing folks!

@billvanvlack117 2 месяца назад

Maybe paint/sealant/grease burning off of hot engine parts set off the smoke detector? Congrats on using paper navigation, but is a chart plotter in your future? It would be interesting to see the journey on charts. Also, what is the reason for the change of ports; is this part of a cruise or a destination for a project - or something else?

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

We rescued a wooden trawler and needed to be there. It's generally the right direction. But we are a floating refit so we are stationary most of the time. But from time to time a change in location is great. We did a lot of maintenance work on the engine so grease and oil residues burning off the engine is possible. Also the smoke alarm is new. We do use our iPad as a chart plotter. Since we have paper charts and a proper gps right at the moment we don't need a chart plotter. Bridge electronics are always the last purchase since it ages fast.

@@FlyingConeyMight think about openCPN as a solution.

@johnpritchard2772 2 месяца назад

Hello everyone. How wonderful to see your ship moving away from where it has been moored for so long and sailing for a new destination - tremendous! Such hard work and effort has been done to make this happen, also, the valued support of many people. Best wishes from Lincolnshire

It was great to see you moving on the water. I really look forward to seeing some sails up one day. :)

@FlyingConey Месяц назад

Can you imagine Flying Coney under sails? 5 square sails on the forward mast pulling her forward and a beautiful gaff sail on the main mast for the trim. She will be flying, that's for sure!

@think4yourself916 2 месяца назад

I am glad to see the ship is done and your dreams have come true. Your Journey beginning and I am glad that you are in a way taking us along with you. Looking for your next video.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

The ship is in no means done or ready. We still have at least two years of refit in front of us. But we are finally able to move the boat again.

@Who.is.Clinton 2 месяца назад

With a vessel the size of Flying Coney + weight + sail area, you need a Bow Thruster (unfortunately), however this will allow the two of you to operate this vessel alone.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Actually under engine it's not too difficult to operate the boat on our own. Since we have a large draft and Flying Coney is quite heavy, things happen slowly. She's big for a yacht but many commercial ships of a similar size are operated by just two people. At least here in the Netherlands.

Have you guys ever thought about opening a Bar? You could serve food also. Like maybe Rhubarb pie. Name the bar after Barbara.

@JosephJackson-uf1iw 2 месяца назад

The keel cooler should remain cold with no circulation until the thermostat opens indicating the engine is up to temperature. Perhaps you have other loads on the cooling system such as water heaters (calorifiers) which prevent the engine getting up to temperature? Possibly you need more thermostat valves to get the engine up to temperature quickly, then divert water to the water heaters, then when the water heaters & central heating are up to temperature it finally uses the keel coolers.

@Harry-bh5dg 2 месяца назад

Glad, there wasn't a major problem with the engine, really good to see her on the move, outvof intrest would a bow or stern thruster be something you might think about fitting, or would it be of no use for her future use

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Actually not many sailing ships have bow thrusters. But it would't be difficult to retrofit one since we already have a strong hydraulic system. In any case it's more a nice to have than a real necessity.

Hi SFC, just the remark that the music used (10'-11') is also the intro theme from youtube channel Mermaid Monster. It's a bit confusing. Safe travels!

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

We use this song since our haul out video that came out 1.5 years ago from time to time. Mermaid Monster looks like a good channel and the production quality is very high. So no wonder we use the same piece of music from time to time.

@gordonagent7037 2 месяца назад

Hi Barbara, love your channel and what you are doing to rejuvenate flying coney. Can I ask a favour from a viewer being in Australia. I would like to ask if you could feature something like a travel map, I struggle with the pronunciation of your country names and was wondering if you would start with a map saying this is where you are now and this is where we are going. The reason I ask is because I want to to follow your route as well as the journey of flying coney, plot it for my self on a map at home and look up places and ask you interesting questions along the way. Some stuff that you would take for interest may be of significance for other. Just a thought

What's your cruising speed under power?

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

This time we went with 6.5knots at 1300rpm and used 14 liter an hour. Next time I will probably go a little slower. In the next video there will be our speed test.

@user-ex8lo7jd8v 2 месяца назад

The boat doesn't have to stop for the crew to eat. Get a bow thruster otherwise your going to look really silly when docking such a heavy boat.

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

You look silly when the bow thruster dies down or the wind is to strong and you can't maneuver your boat without one.

@WolfGamer-zd1nd 2 месяца назад

i have a question could one person operate a boat like yours alone if some of the stuff like anchor and sails were done by electronics (Drum Winch or Windlass and other things like that) mostly asking because i have been thinking about getting a boat but there's only me lol

@WolfGamer-zd1nd 2 месяца назад

i don't even think my friends would join me in traveling my friends would only join me in fishing

@FlyingConey 2 месяца назад

Don't underestimate the labor involved in the upkeep and the maintenance. Although it is possible to operate a boat of Flying Coneys size single handed it's difficult and only possible under engine. But if you have the money to pay people to do the maintenance you could possibly also afford a payed crew. My recommendation is always when you want to travel with a boat always stay underneath 15 or 49ft.

@Nerd3927 2 месяца назад

For me the sweet spot is around 9 meters and 5 tons to handle single handed. Anything bigger is possible but not enjoyable. On my current 11 meter steel boat of 12 ton I only sail with crew, and very little....
