Nautical songs

Great song? Good show? Bad movie? What should be enjoyed and what should be avoided.

Thank you, Heid! My thoughts exactly. There are a range of things on here I don't know how to do. Yes, You Tube contains ads, which are annoying, but it's easy to use and share. (Which is why it has ads!). Like Heid, I'll see what I can do.

It didn't. And each of the following attempts produced a similar error message that I was using pirated software. So I'm just going to have to go back to the old way and live with the ads.

My use of the spoiler tag was just to hide the trump stuff.

Try this way, with the new YouTube button:

I can see posts #1 and 5, but only because I edited them to use the new button when I created it. Your last one from above, I cannot. It's just a big, blank area.

That I understand. Shockwave Flash was discontinued a while back, which was how the old button worked. It should have broken for everyone. I think the real question is; why is it still working for you?

All I've seen for a couple of years now is the clickable link and a blank placeholder where the video should be.

Thanks. I'm still on an old browser that has flash installed, as well as an extension that forces youtube to use flash player instead of html5 so I guess it's one of those things.
I'm glad you mentioned it, I had no idea. I'll try and fix what old posts I can, and remove those extensions so I can see if I'm messed up on other forums as well. :)

I could be mistaken, but I thought you had posted this one some time.

These guys are personal friends of mine.



And if that's not quite nautical enough...

This one isn't nautical at all, but I think you might enjoy it. These are also friends of mine.

I also tried clicking on the You Tube button but that produced the same result. But OK, I'll try for the next one.

For the YouTune button, you only need the video identifier, not the whole URL.

Did anyone watch this? You might be amused.

Here is something very nautical, but I give you only the part without singing:
