Great insight, even though a rough passage! I just found his channel from an article on Castanet. ( My home town) I would love to catch up on your travels, but playlist starts at latest. So have to jump back to find next episode. I couldn't find a way to reverse on my side. Will follow now. Cheers!
Awesome! A tip to get the vid in chronological order is go to the channel, click on videos and it should sort them all out for you. Thanks for saying hi and following along! Cheers!
@@sailinghonutime Thanks. It was a very hot summer with no rain as you know. To actually put a pair of track pants on in the evening is actually nice! Hopefully more rain soon. The McDougall Creek fire is over 13,000 hectares and still growing. They say it will keep burning until snow flies. Wow
I am probably gonna receive some flak for this. I didn't see the rough seas. They all looked like under 10 feet. But the cameras may have distorted things. I've never been in rough seas. The most I've faced is between 15 and 20 feet with a reasonible interval. I think you had a dream crossing. My last crossing was described by the captain as "rough". When asked for details, he said that it was a once or maybe twice a year level of difficulty. I was glad to hear that as I don't think I could tolerate continual passages like that.
No Flak from us, we appreciate comments and questions. We have been in Bigger seas, but these were rough, confused and just plain messy. We had to head dead into the wind, but the swell and chop seemed to be such a short duration and from all sides. Many times the waves would "double up" so not only would we pitch and roll from front to back and rub rail to rub rail but we would get a huge bang and drop, thankfully it only last for a part of this passage and we were able to start making better time and speed, its really hard to capture that perspective but we do our best. Thanks for joining us on our journey!
@@sailinghonutime I get it! When the primary and secondary swells or the waves are crossing, it doesn't take big waves to create miserable conditions. Thanks for the response. So I wish you fair winds and following seas.
No they helped a lot on this one, neither of us really get that sea sick, but when we started to get queezy we put the emeterm wristbands on and it help to subdue those feelings.
Nice to see Josh's hair is growing back.
I know, right?

Did the conditions overcome the seasick prevention wrist bands?
