Thanks so much for your support,
The adventure continues.
Safe sailing.
Boat:
White Shadow is a Van De Stadt ‘Seal’ 36 (11 metres). She is hand made in steel, 2004, with a round bilge (hull) and a modified coach roof. This makes her a ‘one off’ and in my opinion the most beautiful Van De Stadt 36 ever built.
The camera gear:
Main camera is a Panasonic Hc- V700 with a Rode External mic with a sponge and dead kitten attached.
Action, underwater scenes and small blogging is done with two Osmo action cams. Some boat shots are done with a Dji gimbal camera.
Editing:
Final cut pro on a Macbook. Most of the material for each video is filmed over a period of several weeks or so and the editing of each episode is normally done over a day. This process can take longer if original music is used or permissions are needed for copyrighted materials etc. Much time is spent sorting out technical problems. In this case I normally get the help of a younger person who understands computerie stuff!
There are also times when filming, editing and uploading is not possible due to being at sea or in locations with no internet access.
Content:
I have found that filming and releasing material over a period of time is better than doing ‘vlog’ style videos and trying to make episodes out of whats happened in a week, regardless if it’s good content or not. By filming over a period of time I can be more selective in what goes into each video. My aim is to avoid ‘bland and mundane’ and have at least one or two exciting and interesting events in every video. Every video has to be entertaining.
Comments and being at sea:
I love reading your comments. Most weeks Im able to read everyone. I cant reply to everybody but I do read and enjoy them. Keep them coming! There are times that It might seem I’m not on the internet for certain periods, this is normally when Im at sea on passage. While Im out on the Ocean I have completely no communications with the outside World.

Barry you look younger!
From a brother of the Sea of45 years, and new subscriber from Canada 🇨🇦. Just sold my boat of 35 years, now a landlubber.
Hello From Lake Superior- What Vest are you wearing? What kit is on the blue vest?
Good to see you Barry
You need a "beer assistant" to bring you one when needed.
I really hope you turn right at the Barrier and head straight for the Hauraki Gulf … now thats the best sailing area in NZ and I think you could end up staying another couple of years making some great video.
I'm inspired to go to sea and follow you, I've starred shopping for a boat and hopefully in a year or so I'll be heading your way. Thanks for the videos
Nothing like a bit of slow boat sailing; Shaddie might not be the fastest but she gets the job done. Nice one Barry.
nice boat and the design is good for if you run aground , roomy and sturdy but dear god what a dog . Won't go to weather – I call that dangerous .
I sail a really lite spade rudder fin keel boat – Could not stand a boat that did not sail well
More New Zealand and im sick of it so I'm not going even watch the rest of the Video lol…. The Sea Dog is Lost in New Zealand and died at SEA
You should change the name of your Channel to THE NEW ZEALAND SEA DOG
It’s always a hellava day at sea,huh Barry!
Great camera. Great editing. Great video. Thank you Skipper!!
Barry. I'm not sure what you've been doing but you are looking really well and younger. I guess NZ was good for you. Thanks for the video.
You made a good choice Barry. I love Great Barrier Island. It’s my most favourite place in the whole world and you can live there too. I hope you enjoyed anchoring there as much as I have. The girls voices are just the usual hallucination so don’t panic. Great to see you sailing again…….!!
if it can go wrong it will go wrong……Barry at his Best
Great episode Barry, Stay Safe & Fair Winds !!
Its all a bout sailing i know what land looks like.
Bravissimo! Greetings from italy 🦭🦋🦭🦭🦭🌈😎😎😎🕶️👏
I’m sailing solo also, and when I’m not feeling comfortable I watch you. I’m
Back. Your my hero. 😘
Have enjoyed your videos since episode 1. I like the names for all your friends…the vane, the dinghy, the outboard, birds that land on the boat….you need a "Wilson" aboard.
That last decision I believe was a wise one!! 🍻👍👍😃
Watching your channel, I can't help but hope that I get to sail like you one day. You're the man Barry.
The oil on board this is so real… for many.
Good morning, lol ! Motor on ! If required,😳😅🤣 glad you are ok and back at the Helm , thanks for taking us along !😉😃
🙂
Hey Barry, you good seafaring guy you, you still have the stuff to do it. Love the sea. Every once in awhile I wonder what happened to your seagull friend you had years ago for about 2 years. Would be nice if you didn't have to worry about shallows, Coral heads or lobster pots. Glad you have a lot of friends to rely on here and there. Oh I forgot to mention storms too and breakdowns but I guess that would make it too easy. But I'm sure a lot of sailors would like that. Well I'm out of here so thanks and catch you again, God bless, bye
i enjoyed the planning part. Thanks, Barry for the knowledge.
Do you at least have a case of oil with you? I would think that would be a reasonable minimum, along with a few filters.
Parlay just had their sail rip out the same way. Seems to be going around. They used three strands of dyneema to patch it up.
Ahhhhh – breath, relax, enjoy …….. beer & pizza
Fab video !
The boats looking really nice Barry.
Farmers complain about no rain…or too much rain, bankers about interest rates too high or not high enough, gamblers about their luck but saillors got their issues with wind…too little too much …Barry, I;m amazed that you have as much hair as you have, your patience is of biblical magnatude. Sail on Sail on Sailor !!
