This channel is friggin awesome!!! People are missing out not following James' adventure... to say he has guts is an understatement!! Thanks for taking us along, and I wish you endless success in this channel and your adventures.
I was in the Tuamotes 10 years ago, James im jealous cause you’re in Paradise brother! Thanks for your videos cause this old sailor just can’t make them long passages anymore! Fair winds✌️✌️✌️
Hi James! So fun to be along with you on this passage. Glad it went smoothly and look forward to checking out the village with you! Peace and love to you. ✌ ❤
Love this channel with its wild ocean adventures and knowledgeable content for us rookies, it really is helpful .ie the slack water thing in the lagoon.. Thanks James for being a true star
What a small world, I lived in rangiroa for a year a couple years back. Idk if you refueled or explored the town but my ex in-laws own the shell gas station there as well as the fueling station for boats there on the dock. His names Francis. It’s a beautiful little atoll but the real beauty is the outer little strips of land which have beautiful beaches and have crystal clear lagoons. Enjoy your travels. If you go to Tikehau, ask for Moises! Super nice guy, same family, he’ll be your best friend and show you good Tahitian food.
Got my its AWESOME - I like the light material - you are one of the few who have 3xxx and 4xxx for us big guys - thanks James now need you to do a coffee mug with logo - save travels shipmate Chief Mike USN RETIRED
Dude..Your out in the middle of nowhere..God bless you on this journey..I have a hard enough time traveling 100 miles of highway anymore with all the traffic these days..I'm following you..Stay safe.
Wow, beautiful place French Polynesia it's a true dream... Thanks James for sharing your life with us... Truly amazing seeing it thru your eyes! Appreciate the wisdom you share along the way!! Fare winds an following sea's my friend ✌🏼💗😊❣️
James is soo good to know your still out there .. love your videos .. and Im just soo happy that i found your channel again .. please keep up the videos coming .
Hi James how’s everything going it looks good how is Kimberly going have you heard from her love your videos keep up the good work Cliff from Logan city Queensland Australia from the big island
I don't have your experience and my boat is a couple of feet shorter than yours. Here in winter the seas can be quite difficult, basesd on the west of Scotland. I'm trying to gauge what i can sail. Whats the highest waves you have had to contend with to date.. Do you sail into them or with them? Thanks Phil.
I have even less experience than you, sir, I assure you! However, another YT Sailor named Erik Aanderaa and his channel No Bull**** Just Sailing (NBJS) intentionally sailed into a Force 10...and destroyed my last fear of seeing the world on an adventure of a lifetime. If you haven't seen this, I promise you should check it out!
Another piece of paradise to explore. I'm still trying to get a floating crane to my house in order to get my boat off its wrecked boat lift post Ian. 🧜♂
I'm extremely happy for you James following your dream and a plan to sail the World and share it. I also have a beautiful seasoned classic in 1971 Hallberg-Rassy 33 Mistral getting ready to live it's creators vision out in the Oceans. I was wondering if you could suggest an insurance that you ended up carrying in order to be allowed and admitted in marinas and foreign countries? Thank you again! Fair winds ...
Hi man, hope you are well. I have a genuine question (and in no way a criticism). When anchoring and floating the chain does this reduce the security of the anchor due to the pull of the ride not being along the seabed? (Ignoring the necessity to float chain to avoid snagging). Peace, brother ✊
The chain on the sea floor and scope don’t do their job unless the winds are blowing twenty or over or unless there is a big surge, when the winds or surge pick up, the floats sink and the scope goes to work. The rest of the time the weight of the anchor and it being buried and set hold the boat perfectly secure.
I have been binge watching your channel. At work SHhHHh. You videos take me away from this place I have to be.

What are you using for up to date tide tables? You find its accurate?
How far South into the Pacific do you plan to sail?
love the vid, but i need to know what music is that piano in the intro, anybody knows?
whoa! show us the 30 knot storm when it happens?

What are your thoughts on adding a Bimini ?
I have a removable sunshade, there is no room for a Bimini
👍🎣🏖️⛱️🌊💯
Has there ever been enough wind to wear a sale boat has capsized?
Wind doesn’t capsize boats only waves capsize boats
On an ocean planet with islands dotting the landscape watching an alien sunrise…..closer to Antarctica than America? Maybe…
