The Fear of Dragging Anchor ALONE on the boat. (Sailing La Vagabonde) Ep. 134
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Riley and Josje left me onboard by myself to go and hike a red hill on the island of La Graciosa. The wind picked up to 32 knots, gusting to 35 and the two boats next to me left to find shelter one having dragged anchor first. I’d stayed home to catch up on some work but because stress levels were through the roof, I didn’t get a thing done. But I’m glad I did stay home, because we would have never of known about the sudden change in the weather all the way up on that hill. One engine wasn’t working and the other wasn’t 100% reliable (the same problem with the control boxes needing replacing and a jump start was required if you wanted to fire it up before then). Not the end of the world unless you need to get out of somewhere quickly and you’re a one woman show. Join us in the Canary Islands for an ADVENTURE. It's Josje on RUclips! We love her:

Awh I love Josje, I hope she is happy out there and finding peace with herself. She's an amazing being.
It would clearly be in Volvo's best interest to send someone with control boxes that are definitely not from the bad batch and get your engines running with out any issues, because every time you have problems with them, a few hundred thousand people get to see it!
Very good idea . I hope some one from Volvo Marine Division sees your reply . This Catamaran is definitely not a cheap one . I feel for Elayna and Riley that they are having so many problems on their new Catamaran .
agreed. it looks pretty bad on them
Classic Riley, fixing engines, falling in the water, flashing the coinslot!! Ha Ha. Great Episode guys.
And Mountain hiking in slippers... :-D
Plumbers Butt
and hiking in flip flops....
Thumbs up bums up!
They are their own first responder for everything from engines to fires to medical emergencies and fighting off pirates, everything :-)
Hahaha when we climbed (slid) down the mountain Riley, beautifully put together team! Miss you's x
Will we be seeing you on La Vagabonde again?? Hope it's a yes!
Josjeeeee ❤
Maybe a bit off topic. But Riley have you considered wearing some sort of "Sail shoes" which are more stable and safer then flip-flops which can also get wet and you can walk barefoot in them? there are some nice ones out there. For example the Merrell Men's Barefoot Current Glove or the NeoSport Paddle Water Boots. Also the Vibram FiveFingers Classic which is almost like barefoot walking. Just think you can up your "shoe game" on la Vagabonde to have something better then just Flipflops. The mentioned shoes give you more grip, safety, stability and probably are also nicer to wear since you don't have to worry about falling out on them or that they will break ;). Last but not least those also protect the feet from too much sun exposure and i heard Flipflops are not good for your back on the long term. Anyway just thought i mention those three models to maybe give you some inspiration to consider getting some.
Riley has the best laugh ever !
Robert Orzech agreed!
Seems OTT
Agreed 😂 makes me laugh with him
Thank you for scheduling this for a Monday late night. Had a rough day, cant sleep and now I`m just smiling and loving your adventures :)
Capitan Jimbo! how ya doing mate? These videos probably make you wish you had a boat again!!
Each video is better than the previous one. Josje is da bomb. Elayna gorgeous as always, Riley's voice still reminds me of John Lennon's speaking voice and the drone footage gets better and better. Adds another great dimension to your adventures. Stay safe on the upcoming crossing. Live well. Be well.
Loved the longer episode, always appreciated; loved the gentleman at the end, great story!! Looking forward to the upcoming episodes and your journey northward.
Surely 'doing a one handed burrito' is some kind of euphemism...
So cool that you guys get to meet people along the way who were inspired by YOU!
Somewhat brave, too! I guess a person could be a Patron, and really bad company...yikes. But I'm sure E & R would have ample couth and tact to handle any situation.
Another great episode!...Thank you Elayna & Riley. Love Josje...She's so charismatic!
I'm so so tired so i'll watch this as soon as i wake up i just want you both to know i love and appreciate ya xx
Loving the videos and they are quite addictive. I love your sense of adventure. Mine is always connected to surfing and my travels have mainly focused on such.
You forgot to put on your graceful climbing shoes Riley!! Your engine troubles are not a very good advertisement for Volvo!!
Does anyone else think that these engines are having far too many troubles for a new boat?
yup way to much
Jeremy Mccubbin I agree and am hoping the electric motor for long range cruising becomes practical within the next few years. They're replacing diesels with a simple electric motor and electric car size battery banks along with small built in generator on the great lakes.
Not at all. It’s a sophisticated and complex boat. So far the issues have been generally minor. Specially now that they know about the control units. Best to shake it all out before the transatlantic crossing.
Was thinking the same. Those engines have been stinkers from the get go and the manufacture really needs to fix this for them. It's not a good look, but good on Riley!!
"A sophisticated and complex boat"...quite true and a reason to evaluate that idea if you are a long range cruiser. Do you want to cruise or worry about circuit boards in Tonga? I strongly prefer simplifying whenever possible, but a sexy big cat will not be simple. The more moving parts a machine has, the more likely something is not working. If you are in the Med or the Caribbean, you are close to resupply, expensive as it may be. Unless you are loaded, keep it simple, with systems you understand and can fix yourself. An expensive new cat is beautiful to look at and lovely to sail but is a poor choice if a 10 or 20K repair at random moments would be a problem.
I love how Riley, goes into his spontaneous madman celebration, (everyone is different), when something gets fixed. Handsome and handy. FYI: it takes one to know one. ONE LOVE from Nathan on Vancouver Island. 😍❤️🇨🇦
man, on a day to day basis... life feels very overwhelming for me... job and family, many burdens i try to fix.... but i sit down, load a video on my tv from SLV... and my spirits are lifted. Keep living your dreams... how real they are, are felt by your viewers.
Been to Lanzarote for many years since my Family have a house in Playa Blanca/Playa Flamingo in the South. Really nice to see different places and a different view 😁👍🏻
I’m always amazed how you hike in your jandals, Riley!!
And a cheeky wee shot there, Elayna! 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
I LOVE seeing people y’all come across who are on the water because you inspired them!!!
You guys make me smile.
A Coronado! Oh, this boat brings memories back. This was my first sail boat that I bought in Montenegro and sailed around for several years. Strange to see Riley sitting in it!
I really like the interview w Stephan. Your questions were great and this was one of the most informative cruising videos I’ve seen. Thanks
The only REAL channel. Definitely my favourite RUclips channel by far.
Delos
DIDO! They do a great job!
I love the energy, high spirits, and affection you show for each other. You are truly remarkable people!
Having owned Volvos my self I feel your pain, Not to mention the parts are unobtanium expensive
This is why I love the ole monohulls! Only one engine to deal with. Outremer isn’t looking very good in my book at this point but you guys are awesome as always. Me? I’ll keep my good ole boat and her organic heeling touch!
mate. demostration of 1) perfect use of safety thongs to scale a mountian 2) great manly ingenuity fixing your engine in a pinch. 3) plumbers crack to get the job done. mate you're bleeding the aussie flag. Bob Hawke is so proud.
Приятно смотреть на этих ребят))) Так держать!
Just absolutely love watching your adventure on the open sea.Thanks, Guys !!!!!!!!!!
What a life guys!!
What a life you living!!
For me is just a dream!!
Thank you for taking me with you!!
Thank you!!
After getting home from a snowy day at work it is wonderful to see what you guys have been up to. Thanks, and I hope the crossing goes smooth, fast and fun.
So, this is where the legend of Stefan began...
Gaybar!!!!!!! Take me to a.... I always love the music, and love the adventure you have taken us on. Newest patron here
Addicted to yer videos isn't even the word. Looking forward to yer big trip I have a friend living in the Bahamas as a dive instructor. Sending love from Ireland.
The east coast may seem boring but please visit it. It'd be awesome to see my favorite RUclipsrs at places I recognize
How many times has Riley been explaining, arguably, interesting technical stuff, while waiving around a screwdriver in his hand... hmmm That reminds me of the very first scene of the very first Ep. of SLV. Halfway through this collective dream journey to catch up to the present day! Love
My dad is close to getting a boat. He was inspired by your videos, we both love them and have been watching for years!
Josje is just awesome. God bless all three of you guys.
You guys!!! 😱😱😱 Moored under the Risco…although on paper seems to be ok, that’s a very dangerous spot where to moor, because the wind accelerates on the walls of the cliffs creating crazy gusts
5th time fixing engines on a boat less than 1 year old... Not a great advert for whoever makes those control boxes. Also not a great advert for whoever decided to put them in there as they clearly suck. Very happy you guys are showing it warts and all though 👍
So happy for you guys! Can't wait for you to come back on PKA be safe out there and peace to you all.
I subscribed and starting watching three weeks ago. I was hooked instantly and soon became a Patron. It took me about two weeks, but I hav just finished watching every single episode. I have talked about SLV so much I have gotten a half dozen other people watching. I love these two. It is so much fun to watch.
Outstanding episode, don't think we ever take these for granted...
"There's no plan" totally love that.
Recently i was watching episode 91, then rewatch episode 1, then episode 92, episode 2 and so on. I have been watching from almost the beginning and I love and treasure your evolution as sailors, life on the sea, and your uniqueness in all aspects. I am so happy for you to have the new boat and think the episodes are still so unique and wonderfully done. I enjoy living vicariously through you as I work away here in San Francisco, and someday I hope to skip the mono-hull and go straight for the Cat ;) Keep it up I love ya!
And again my morning has started out brilliantly with an update from SLV. Shame Josje has moved to her next adventure, but I believe Christian (@Lost LeBlanc) will be joining the videos soon, which will be great also. Safe sailing SLV and Good Wind. Look forward to the next video as always.
All your music you put is amazing, but for the sunrise!👍👍👍so good!!
Perfect video. Friends, new friends, diving, remote historical locations, great food, falling overboard and wine. Also a 17 minute video is a lot to edit but it looked great and flowed effortlessly. Nicely done, E.
Every new video that I watch fills me with more and more joy; there's so much warmth and happiness that I get from watching these videos. It encourages me to look forward to the future and to reach all my dreams, goals, and aspirations. I seriously love you guys, without a doubt, my favorite channel. I definitely have a calling to the seas; it's literally in my last name (Long Sea) -it's Viking/Old Norse/Norwegian ;)
Love from your biggest Minnesotan fan,
Ian Langsev
truly never a dull moment on la vaga and gotta love captain riley climbing volcanic cinder cones in flip-flops !
That crew ship I parks outside my apartment, now when I look at it I think of you two. God bless you two
Seriously love your guys relationship, it’s so sweet to see.
Glad your engines are running now. Your friend is pretty cool I wish him the best on his adventures. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
The CROSSING! ... I can't wait for the adventure.
You are both amazing
Thanks for the latest upload! They are all fantastic. I sort of binge watched all all of them over the last two weeks. I see you had Christian on board. I also have been following him for sometime. Keep up the great work. Fair winds to ya!!
Drone shots are insane! I am slowly catching up with real time, can't stop watching your movies!
Great video. Love seeing when you are actually out sailing. Took me back to the first video I watched of you guys when Riley was flipping his screwdriver aboard the Beneteau. Was not sure about him at first but I have become a big fan of you both.
The life you are living is truly inspiring.
So cool seeing how hospitable you two , and sailors in general are. Always like hearing the stories of the people you meet. ....PS. Am I the only one confused as to how they uploaded this an hour ago but there’s comments from 6days ago???
Hey Alec, if you become a Patron of theirs you get the vids a week earlier :)
James Rowe ahh okay, I thought that might be it but wasn’t sure how it worked with RUclips
The videos are shared Privately to the Patreon crew and then released to the Public a week later. Superb system.
That breakfast looks amazing! And I agree not a good look for Volvo!!!
Great to see you include other people you meet - their stories are interesting
Great vid, More Josje!!!! Feel better Elayna! Riley, keep at least 100 control boxes on hand!!!!
Wonderful video, you guys are awesome.
It was so good to see Josje on the water again. I'll miss seeing her!
I getting only 4 hours sleep the last 4 days as I got hooked watching your Vlogs! Loved it!
Please make sure to strap on as you are crossing the Atlantic Ocean! You never know what can happen out there... Have a safe trip regards from Malta :)
Another fav! Brings back so many memories of boat breakdowns with my Dad - you guys handle it well and are so fun to watch. Can't wait for the crossing, XO Kelly
Love all your videos guys! I bought a caravan and am traveling Australia. Will be giving what you guys are doing a go next so these videos are educational for me. I understand 100% why you guys are doing what you are doing. Just hope i can find myself a sailor lady like you mate. She is so chilled and awesome.
That boat is off my wish list.
Thank you for posting. Love you two. Be safe.
At 16:11 dork on the left, glamorous star on the right.
Lovely, it is always a joy to watch your continued adventures.
Stay safe & Happy :)
You both have courage
i love you guy's you guy's are living it
Riley and his sandals killed me while he hiked. Something I would totally (and foolishly) do! 😹
G'day Riley Love your enamel mug @ 11.40 matches my one next to my key board,. good on ya . No more picking up broken bit when she hits the deck, or the table comes up to meet it !
I had same problem with the control box on my 55hp’s , having replace with upgraded box no problems. But just in case install simple bypass start buttons, it saves you from using the screw driver on the starter threads. Great video and my next boat will be an Outremer they seem a lot more responsive and faster.👍👍
How awesome finding out when y’all met Stephen! I see him in more recent vlogs but I had no clue y’all met him on a boat coincidentally
Stellar video guys!
ROFLOL i nearly fell out laughing for the plumber butt.........good on ya Riley, you killed it
Great video!!! You should do the meet and greet in St.Augustine.
We are enjoying your adventure. Thanks for posting your honest good work. Along the way we would love to see you on Nantucket Island when you make your run north.
All the best from Wes and Mindy
Thanks for posting. Sorry to hear you were having trouble with the engines.
Saw a sun rise and a full moon all at the same time 🌞 🌝
Again, best part of my Tuesday is SLV.
Just awesome.
Ahhh Rainbow Kitten Surprise is playing when you interview Stefan!
I am alive again! I had three teeth pulled on Friday had such a shitty week last week and your video pops up and breathes life into this toothless old broad. I actually have many teeth left and I hope to come meet you all on the East Coast!!
Wish I could have found this channel earlier. I live in Georgia US. Only a few hours from Florida!!
Gotta love these two :-) Great videos !
Great video ! I realy like the 15-20 min videos ! Can't wait for your crossing the Atlantic ! Cheers from Bulgaria ! :)
Stefan is right in his comments that sailing is very expensive. With secondhand boats, especially if under-equipped, it is not unusual to have to spend the same amount each year you outlaid to buy the boat on keeping it seaworthy and adding and maintaining modern cruising equipment. Adding secondhand bits and pieces is not always a great idea either. Great video btw! The 'tradie's flash' very nice touch.
As you have found out, even new boats break down. I was once told by the head of the warranty department for a major outboard motor company that the only difference between a new part and and old part is that the new part hasn't been tested yet. Sail on and be safe.
Dat Crack Doh! Haha Noice!! Can’t wait for the next one! Hurry up and get to New Jersey :)
keep on doing anything, you are gifted personalities...
Another great video. Tks again nice to hear some Canadian artist playing too. Cat Clyde is awesome
A and R - I don’t know if you have made it across the atlantic yet. Once in America, head up the east coast to Nova Scotia. Great sailing, culture, and history. You can even sail right to the first permanant european settlement by Champlain (founded 1603/4) in Port Royal.
love your videos, love you guys, love Josje, hope she returns soon
Great video and gorgeous photo/video as always! Sorry to see Josje leave :( Now the real work starts again, clean, update, fix, provision.... and you call it work. HAH! Sounds like a whole lot of work!
you are you two an inspiration! i can 't wait to do the same along the globe.
Looking forward to the crossing and excited for you you guys! Great episode as ever troops!
It must be the most amazing thing to wake up on a boat like that, step outside and see nothing but sea and all of the stars visible in an unpolluted sky, then watch with good company as the sun follows your lead into the new day.
