    My very favorite channel. I am always waiting for new videos. Feels like being on a boat. I learned a lot and appreciate how serious you are about teaching us. Thanks for having the talk with us about the risk of going in or falling in the water. Chilling

    Amazing to be a witness of you being in the water in the middle of a vast sea. Made me nervous. What if a shark came along?? I really like your videos

    WTF! You jumped into the ocean with trimaran sails up?!? What if some slightest wind came in? Tied to a line or not - that'd be the end - it would drag you down and drown you. AND no proper swim-ladder -- I'm speechless. You were VERY lucky that day! 3,500 views - congrats!
    Although tempted, but I refused doing this even 1nm off the coast.

    Surely it is a mistake to leave your sails up while jumping off the back while solo sailing. Even if you are attached the dragging forces could quickly exhaust you. Even if the auto pilot is set to heave to, what if one of the tow lines snags the auto pilot, or it failed and the wind picks up. Really you have put yourself in potential danger by not taking all possible obvious precautions.

      Agreed, that tri will move in very little breeze, making it very difficult to get back on board. A boarding ladder down I to the water would help

      The going rate is usually $1/nm + food and all travel costs.

      I miss the previous owners, Jason and Ms. Italy (I have forgotten her name) they made some fantastic videos on this boat.
