Boating with the Baileys
Ahoy, Sailing Enthusiasts!
Join the Baileys as we dive back into the sailing life! From purchasing our beloved Bavaria 36 cruiser to sharing unforgettable adventures and hands-on boat projects, we’ve got it all. Now sailing in the stunning waters of North Wales, we previously explored the South Coast of the UK, including the Channel Islands and the breathtaking Devon and Cornish coastlines.
Follow our journey as we discover spectacular bays, tackle repairs, and share practical sailing tips. We’ve got plenty of technical how-tos, maintenance videos, and fun adventures. Plus, check out our interactive sailing map to see all the places we’ve visited!
Our Bavaria 36, a 2004 2-cabin model, is powered by a 28hp Volvo MD2030 engine with sail drive—perfect for long coastal adventures. We love sharing the ins and outs of maintaining and upgrading her, with plenty more tips on our website.
Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more sailing adventures and DIY boat projects.

I've run a thumbnail test on our last Victron DC-DC charger video, which one did you see? The results from YouTube say our branded thumbnails are just ahead, do you agree?

Could anyone make use of this? It's a board I made from a project (YAPP) that will take NMEA and/or seatalk1 in and convert that to NMEA/RS232 for a pc. I have 4 more boards also which will come with the built working one. The plans are online for the components you need and the code to flash it if you wanted to build some.
It's your for the price of postage and if you could give the RNLI or coastguard a few £€$ that would be nice 👍 ⛵️

Evening, I remembered to check the pi WiFi settings for the subscribers that have been having issues getting a connection on a Pi5 (and a Pi4) with devices like an ESP or phone that seems to connect but then disconnects or just doesn't work.
I changed the following:
# sudo nmcli con modify TEST_AP 802-11-wireless-security.proto rsn
# sudo nmcli con modify TEST_AP 802-11-wireless-security.group ccmp
# sudo nmcli con modify TEST_AP 802-11-wireless-security.pairwise ccmp
(Replace TEST_AP with your ssid name)
Since I changed this both my phone and ESP connect without issues.
Here is the post where I found this information:

Hope it helps 👍⛵️

We're thinking of renaming the channel - 'What's gone wrong this time' and to answer that question, the battery charge has blown up.👍⛵️😀 oh and the Adverc was also misbehaving so that's getting replaced.

Hi, we’ve had a question about subtitles and translation - I just wanted to check that folks can see these options and can pick another language for auto translation. I know we don’t upload a translation file but I thought the YouTube option was available for all. Is that the case, do you have opinions under Auto-translate?

New video uploaded and ready for tomorrow! Just a little update from us, Allegra is currently with the rigger as she is due a checkup so we will be putting a video together about that process, we've had some hard drive issues so we lost a little footage and had to record that again and we also have a new crew member..... more on that shortly!
