Vacuum bags are simply great. Full stop. Who doesn't wish they had more storage, on the ocean in a sailboat, in an RV or in their home? HEY! Don't you guys know that "crack is whack?" Hahahaha

MISTERComaToes - 7 years ago

Why, yes I am young lady! (smile)

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Are you having a night catching up on YouTube?! Hehehe. Thanks for the comments ;)

moeshickenyay - 7 years ago

Lovely Apartment.

Maciej Soral - 7 years ago

Great new intro, much better and fresh than previous one.

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Hey Maciej - thanks for the feedback. I agree with you :)

Capt Chef Mark SV Alcina - 7 years ago

Well well , refer last part , need I say any more !

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

;)

Ron Harbin - 7 years ago

Some great ideas - thanks. One sort of negative thought I had though was that it is probably good to retain some "capacity" in the bilge for bilge water. If you had a leak, it won't take as long to cover the sole and possibly some other more important equipment. Simon - I can't believe you got talked into that R rated scene!!

Capt Chef Mark SV Alcina - 7 years ago

Ron Harbin
But then again if you did full up the bilge to say 85% and you get water coming in , you will see it sooner then later and then you can take the things out, and then you can see more .

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Very good point Ron! Some boats don't have a deep bilge at all and it would not be wise to pack it full of 'stuff'. :)

Alex Todd - 7 years ago

I sympathized with Simon's expression when he had to say 'duvet.'

TheHaveMoreFarm - 7 years ago

My eyes my eyes! :)

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

hahahahahaha!

David Marsh - 7 years ago

Like new intro. Ending a little cheeky though ;)

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Thanks for noticing the new intro... I can't take the credit! My dad did it :) And yes, the ending was a bit cheeky :)

Allyn Onderdonk - 7 years ago

um.......the ending....umm....anyway those silica beads can be reused even if they get waterlogged. We have some that you can bake the water out of them in the oven. The silica can really prolong the life of cameras and other electronics on the water if space bagged.

Allyn Onderdonk - 7 years ago

If you sucked the air out of the electronics bags there would be even less moisture available so they would last a little longer.

Allyn Onderdonk - 7 years ago

+SailingBritican usually the beads inside will turn pink or blue when they are full of moisture. Just cut them open and look inside they won't bite! Leaving them out in the air for any length of time will saturate them. Heat in oven at 250ish F for about 5 hours....without the little paper packages and on a tin tray. Heat until they have turned back to their original color. Then tape them back in their packages or just drop them loose in a bag or something. Basically you could store them in that same ziplock bag. You really don't necessary need a container other than a plastic bag to keep the air out. The paper bags just keep them together.

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Yes...I did read that you can back the Silica. Allyn - do you know when the silica needs baking? Is it something to do every year or so? Hard to determine what's going on as you can't really see inside the packet. And - I never thought of putting them in with my cameras, etc. Will do that now! Thank you :)

ohhhh cheeky....!!

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Yep...just a wee bit cheeky :)

Barbara Bennett Tranello - 7 years ago

That was really informative. We also used those bags when we moved making more space for more stuff. Although we didn't know there was a full moon out. Simon, how many times??? Hahahahaha!

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

He must be an exhibitionist of some sort! Hehehe

Mike Sawyer - 7 years ago

Like the new intro! Simon, that was hilarious!!!

Frank Parsons - 7 years ago

I wrestle with accessibility. what to bury under settees. I hate decorative items. baskets, fake flowers. my boat has a pretty barometer, that doesn't work.

Frank Parsons - 7 years ago

I don't plan to have paper books...

Frank Parsons - 7 years ago

Mike Sawyer I liked intro... Kim and Simon continue to help with tips. I just bought a Norseman 400. lots of space right now.

Tim Rowlands - 7 years ago

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

Thanks for noticing the new intro Mike - my dad made it for me and sent it over yesterday. I was impressed! Simon is off at the marina office sorting out an issue (the pump out boat at the marina hit us!) but when he gets back I'll let him know your thoughts. Hehehehe. Kim

SV Definitely Maybe - 7 years ago

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

SB Vol - 7 years ago

Yes, I agree. That last clip with hilarious! I have to admit that I wasn't expecting that one.

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

I thought it was funny too! Hehehehe

Icova Rook - 7 years ago

Oh man the last clip, I was eating breakfast, was being the operative word, lol. Wheres a bilge when you need one HA

Icova Rook - 7 years ago

It did, I'll never see Simon in the same light again. lOool

SailingBritican - 7 years ago

I thought that clip might take people by surprise. Hehehehe. Hopefully it made you giggle :)
