Curious number of days or percentage of gunkholing vs marinas while in Bahamas?

The fruit name is "Mamey"

I'm sorry you had such a difficult passage, it looked really uncomfortable. Chronic pain doesn't help any.

Take a look at the Takacat 260 dinghy. Less than 60 pounds, rated for up to 8hp. No bailing, easy in and easy out of boat, stable, feet will not get wet unless you want them to or if really waves, packs up in two bags. Downside, it does not have a solid bottom and could get cut on a really rough beach like western Florida with the seashells. We have put 4 adults in it no problem. Tows really well but over 15 mph it is almost too light and and almost wants to start kiting.

Enjoying your videos a great deal. You strike a great balance between "boat stuff," "real life stuff," and the [more glamorous] "Instragram adventure stuff." Great photography and pacing overall. Two questions/comments: (1) Have you considered shooting in 2k? I think the 1080p is underselling so many of your beautiful scenes; and (2), just a nitpicky preference on my part, but so much of your beautiful nature photograph is overlaid with music. I often find myself wishing I could just experience the sounds of the scene as you did. Anyway, great channel, keep it up -- we appreciate you guys & your work.

Hi. The automatic bilge pump will start automatically every five to six minutes to check if there is any water and if is dry it shuts down by itself but if there is water it will stay on to take it out of your bilge area.

I’m in St.Augustine if you’re ever up this way. I have a Trawler on the St.Johns river. Safe travels

Where did you leave truck and trailer? We have been looking and think we found a location up in Bradenton after talking to Ranger Dealer. That is always the one issue with trailer boating. Finding a storage place that is secure. We are planning on doing west side down to keys and. up ICW midpoint somewhere in Florida and return back to west side this spring. Good luck on our winter journey.

Did you travel from west to east or east to west? Thanks again! I look forward to watching your provisioning, that's always a fun watch.

Your videos are so well done, they are a pleasure to watch. I would add that her voice is very pleasing to listen too for voice overs. Well done looking forward to your cruising adventures. Cheers

I always enjoy watching your channel!

You definitely made the most of the space

I think you dock next to me

I like to put dielectric grease inside the crimp tube before adding the wires and crimping. just extra protection. I think the built in float switch in that pump is bad. Every time I put my boat in the water I check the float switch to make sure I'm in the auto position on the pump. I also rigged up a back up pump which I can plug directly into the battery charge extensions, in case I need the back up. Also I currently use it to pump out my floor fish box because the macerator pump is bad and a new one is very expensive. Always something on a boat but you also need back ups and work arounds. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the good work. Thanks

Looks like Sweden!😊

How long do your batteries last for running the AC? How many batteries do you have on board?

I just happened to find your channel. Love your videos and love that you are living life well. We have a small cabin cruiser (Searay 260) that is trailerable. We live in Louisiana and the furthest have taken it to is the Panhandle of Florida. We would love to take it to the Bahamas but just not brave enough. We have a couple of years and plan to buy and 40 ish ft boat and will live on it while working remotely. Is starlink reliable in all of these remote locations?

I wish you have a nice life for ever.I am Jim from Athens Greece.

Watching

I smiled when you mentioned Kawartha Dairy ice cream, “if you know, you know”. Thanks for the Georgian Bay memories.

I’m watching! Great video.

A few tips on the electrical. The 4/0 cable is far overkill for the purpose. Question on house battery bank fuse. Is this fuse going to your 12 bolt panel? If so, 100 A is plenty. If the fuse is for battery protection then I would fuse at 300 A which is standard if you have a larger engine in the event of having to use the house batteries for cranking. I would have used tinned copper wiring as you are taking boat to salt water.

Great video! quick note the jumper wires between the house batteries don't need to be the same 4/0 because they only carry 1/2 of the current each. Evem amounts from each parallel battery. Love your channel.

We watch every week! On the TV, there's not a good way to comment. I'll hit the like button for you guys more. Love the videos. Keep them coming.

Another great video. Yes, we watch them (!) and appreciate the great content you're providing. I especially appreciate that you're simply sharing the adventure and not asking for likes, subscribers and patreon support. Organically growing your fan base is a far better experience for that base. The likes and subscriptions follow with great content like yours. Are you considering the Great Loop since you're already knocking off segments of it?

Yeah, what @tmac709 said...That was a good thorough tour of the exterior of your Ranger Tug!😀

Excellent tour! Thank you so much for the walk around. You have a very impressive boat.

Is the plastic of the battery box covers going to cut thru the battery cable insulation?

Nicely done. Surprised you didn’t go with lithium for the increased amp hours and decreased weight. Zero is aught not odd in the states.

Nice job. Glad your going to cover the positive bus bar. Take care.

you should come up to the PNW and do a cruise with Channel Surfing.... that would be epic.

4/0?! Wow, I guess better over kill than under kill, but that can handle over 300 amps, probably over 400 at that short length. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a battery jumper cable over 2 awg. I wouldn’t have worried about matching the jumper to the main wire, if something is drawing enough to overheat a 1’ 2 awg, that device is probably already on fire, lol. Looks good though, nice clean work. If only marine mechanics cared that much.

Livin’ the life. Thanks for sharing with us landlocked dreamers!

Sorry, but did you say SNAKES are in the water up there? I've heard that the eastern massasauga rattler is now in Ontario; what kind of snakes did you spot there? Do they bother you in the water, or on shore expeditions?

Is your home port Fort lauderdale?

Thanks fr for screen advice. Did I miss the link that you recommended thank you

Wondering if you used the same plastic film on the windshield. Did you have any padding underneath to protect the windshield?

Thanks,for your reply, depends on your regulations. I'm still green, vote well.. 2:42

Great boat handling!

After seeing this PENTHOUSE boat:) in person all i can say its a live aboard in comfort............Now when i saw that fish on his leg (tattoo) that spoke to the fisherman in me! .............im so torn between the XO defender 9, followed so closely by the regal 26 with folding tower........................outboards are the future!

Love your Journeys as well as the quality of your videos. Loved them so much we bought a new R25 this past year. It is truly amazing what you have accomplished with this boat! We are currently looking for a bedding solution similar to what you designed. I just have a couple questions if you dont mind. How thick was the topper you used and was it latex? Again, you guys are great!!!

Where do you buy the sun shade stuff you use on the inside of the windshield?

Have you two considered getting a pair of "marriage savers". Seems like a pair of headsets would make communication easier for the two of you.

Hi , here in N Z , towing with electric brakes no safety chain is used. If the trailer should detach from the truck, the safety chain would prevent the trailer brakes being applied . Is it something to think about ?

I like this channel a lot. I appreciate you telling us your stories.

You guys are awesome !!! I love your channel !!! I am a new boater and new to boating in Georgian Bay... I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge about boating and fishing in the region. I can[t get enough !!! Your boat is awesome and I want one !!!

You guys make a great team, great vid

Great video! Do you store your Honda generator with fuel in it or do you run it dry before storing in your cockpit floor locker? Also, do you have the generator with a 30 amp plug to connect to your shore power cable, or use a 110 to 30 amp pigtail?

Been through there a few times. There is great walleye fishing to be had in the channels. Lots of rocky ledges too
