      @@SailorJames my intention is not to offend you. I’ve been watching you since you left California I’ve noticed a transition from a really good sailing channel to a good travel channel. Your channel got me interested because of your insight on. The Water. Current. Wind. Just in general sailing in it self. By the way you and Ronda have good presence I wish the both of you all the luck.

    I remember decades ago like 4, the Bahamas looked like this. Easily. No more. Mostly coral rubble now. Caribbean not as bad but working on it. Gland to see healthy hard corals like this.

    Beautiful , Loving the island hopping trip , Just out of Curiosity How is SV Triteia holding up ? , My SV Triteia T shirt is going into the Draw till next summer , a few people asked what Boat it was on the t-shirt , so i pointed them here ⛵😀

    • @SailorJames
      @SailorJames  Месяц назад +1

      Triteia is great. All cruising boats require regular maintenance, repairs and projects. If you care for a well built boat she will last several lifetimes

    Another excellent video. You consider going through Kimberley before leaving Australia. There are very few places like that and it seems only local YT channels go there.
    Cheers,

    • @SailorJames
      @SailorJames  Месяц назад +1

      No we didn’t visit the kimberlies, the reason foreign yachts rarely visit them is because you would have to beat back into the tradewinds to clear out of Darwin

    Was anchored in butterfly bay one evening when the wind increased dramatically; seemed to accelerate down the mountain slope. Do they call it a katabatic wind? Anyway, it was extremely strong and blew a large powerboat out to sea while the owners were ashore. Helped them retrieve it once the winds died down. Very exciting evening.

    Hope you didn't miss Whitehaven Beach. I know you can't do everything but that place is the jewel in the crown. You can literally spend a couple of months in the Whitsundays and not see it all.

      ​@budawang77 you are so right about Whitehaven though, even if not into beaches, the pure silicone sand there, whitest beach I have ever seen, like being in an old alpine cigarette ad.

    Much of that area (Butterfly) had its coral badly damaged by Cyclone Debbie a few years ago, was sad to see all the coral heaped up on the beach, looked like a bone yard.

    Nicely done Rhonda!
    You brought Triteia up to the mooring ball at a smooth & steady pace.
    James seemed inpatient with his hand signals as you approached the mooring ball, but that could have been leftover frustration from the prop•rock 💋kiss💋.
    Did that incident prevent him from bending you over at the top of your hike, enjoying each other as you look out at the *spectacular* view‽
    Thanks for the video folks.
    Well Wishes.
    🙏🦉
