Previously on the sailing Ruby Rose. See when 30th, 70. Curve full. 200 mile. Shake down cruise. So after the relative insanity for the last three days, looks like the last few hours is going to be done with what I signed up for. Leg one finished. We have a two day downwind sail. It's been a trip of really two distinct legs upwind the hammering and downwind. Very pleasant. I think we averaged 8.1 knots yesterday. Richard, the CEO, has been sat making loads for two days as to things that he wants to improve. Tweak, change, make sure runs are more appropriately. It's a very interesting insight to the process of taking a new boat and not just going, yeah, it's great. That works. It's about flashing the tits off it and then working out what needs to be improved. Welcome back sailing Ruby Rose. I am back in the factory. This is whole three, that's Ruby Rose too. And do the aeronol run through with you? What happens now? Like why are you back in the factory? Well, I'm back in the factory because Ruby Rose too still has work to do. But it's important to explain to you what happens after the test. What happens once they get off and they find things that are like, can we make that better? Can we make it better? Yes, they can. Yes, they can. And that is what they're doing. So keep watching this. You're going to be super interesting. Hold on back. Interesting because lots of little tweaks, little things, little things that for instance aren't quite there yet. And actually, is that a failure? Would we consider that to be a problem? Of course not. Thought it's not a problem because if you find a problem and this is what these test cells are for and you tell them and you say, well, that's not quite right. Let's modify that and make sure that it is right. That's a success. Again, the first time you bake a cake, you don't expect it to go 100%. You modify the ingredients. You fix things as we get onto hole one. And then you come back when it's all right. And I'm going to give you some examples. We're on hole one now. And obviously she's been stripped out and there's some little blue marks where they found little things, little things that need to be corrected. Damage that we may have done it and I'll all get put right. But I'm going to kind of show you where, actually, you know what, we need to do something here. Unless you're just a simple one. This is the master hole. You may have seen from subsequent episodes us moving through here, me moving through here and going, well, it's pretty rough here. I'm doing this as I'm getting thrown around. This is a natural grab point but it's not meant to be grabbed. So hand rail, they're going to put a nice hand rail across here. And it's just one of those things that has to be put right before, before you get the final boat there. So this and their list of modifications, their list of little tweaks are all part of a design process. And I'm not privy to that list by the way. And I shouldn't be. I'm not a boat builder. But all these little things will get done and they have a little bit of work to do here to just to get this all right. That is why, from a confidence perspective, I have full confidence in this. So yes, that process will take probably another two or three weeks. And then you have a perfect boat. I am very, very complete. They're not just letting this boat out of the stable. So yes, this is still actually, I mean, it's only just being pulled out of the water. So there's still like all the props and the modeling shoot, there's plants, hats, all sorts of stuff. Well, that will all get taken aside. So yeah, this boat is just back. But actually, it's time to show you Rubio Rose too. Because now that this is done, I'll be splitting the episode between showing you what the mods are on this, what the tweaks are, and then showing you how that is and implemented down the range. So it's all very, very interesting. And again, I know we've got to storage here, but you have to kind of appreciate that all this is being taken out these parts here. This is whole one. And if you remember, whole one from... After your weeks go on the test side, you can see that, you know, this is now in a state that was, it's all pulled apart. Let me just go down and do this again. So again, things that we've talked about, handrail, putting a handrail there. I thought handrail would Richard Ward, actually said why not just put a nice kind of like a wooden rail, which has kind of got a grip on it, which aesthetically is better. And again, pulling all these parts out again to make sure that where they are not happy, where everything needs to be changed, they will be doing this. So there are modifications to him, and these things all take time. So yes, modification, modification, and it's all part of a build process. So fantastic. And I wanted to show you, I think it's time to get onto Ruby Rose too. So let's just get on board, have a good look at that, and get all this done. Make sure I don't crack the boat, we're just trying to clean these stuff. Okay, come on in. That'll just take us to show you our boat, because it's a different boat. Different specification. Now, what have we got? Now everything's in blue. If you remember from before, all the blue parts, but the nav desk, other bits and bobs that are being done, we are literally, everything here is being changed. We have a different arrangement. There are still some parts we're designing on, plug outlets, blinds in here, and working with Mary on the final design for our workshop. But again, so the bones of the exterior are identical. The interior of Ruby Rose 2 is going to be, it's actually going to be the first time you've seen it. So it will be very, very different because we have designed this boat for long distance sailing. And that's the whole thing that we work with Seawind about, making sure that we've got this boat set up for long distance work. So for instance, we've set this up for long distance work. But again, we have opted, and I'm just going to walk past this lovely lady, and say no, no, no, no. This for us is going to be a second work station. We don't want this the additional storage. So this for us is a second work station with a GPO so that we can put stuff away. The design for this lock, it is different for us. And it's different for us because we want to door on this. And so this is going to be storage of light things that go forward so that we can keep the entire boat free of stuff being left all over the place. As you see this boat come together, you're going to notice big differences between this boat and other boats. And again, it's just personal preference. We, as I said, oops, have designed our boat for offshore sailing. And every owner has got different wants and needs for us is a passagemaker. A big, long distance passagemaker and our permanent home. So as six, no one has seen you at the barbecue. Look at this. Woo! All right. So for those of you that are going to be crewing on River Rose 2, I will be making sausages and steaks and a vegetarian option later. So this is our gas barbecue. Ooh, nice. Nice to see finally. And again, if you remember the videos we had of the 1260 when we were in Queensland, with that barbecue is like, we used it every single day. It's brilliant. Cooking outside of the choppets, getting the heat out of the galley. It's necessitous. We cannot not have it. But again, personal preference. Same way. Now we've got hole three, down in person. Their boat will be done differently. Four, five, six, seven, eight. All boats made very, very differently. So that is exactly where we're going with this. The next couple of months are going to be literally us just making sure that the boat that we get, that River Rose 2 is exactly how an offshore, long distance silence would have a boat set up. So that's us. So listen, I hope you enjoyed that. I hope you enjoyed a little kind of insight into what we're doing. Why the episodes don't stop? Because this next boat is going to be very different to other boats. And we hope you take some ideas from that. As I said, we've spent four years working with Seawin to kind of make sure that these ideas come to exactly, you know, they realize so that we get the boat that allows any offshore sailor to go offshore should they want to. So what do you think River Rose 2? Very, very different. Lots of changes to that. And we will be all over the process of showing you exactly how this boat is going to be set up to be a dedicated blue water cruising pattern around. I am very, very excited about this. Anyway, I'm off to Australia. To reach and I are going to have a catching up to loosen, you know, we're going to catch up in Australia. Can't wait. I will see you all next week. Take care. Leave us a comment. Give us a thumbs up. Give us a like. The comments are so valuable because actually they're really informative. But if so many people are actually picking up on things that are like, actually, what about that? Create an amazing set of questions that actually form part of the poses of how this boat is designing completed. So if you enjoyed that, I will see you all very very soon. Have a lovely weekend. Take care of yourselves. Goodbye.
