Captain….you are a stand up guy of great character which comes across in your channel. Amazon needs to revisit their policy and reverse their decision. You were and are a great representative for them as your work is second to none!! Truly a great craft person.
You are awesome, captain. Thank you for your awesome support and being part of my channel. Which is the most important thing, appreciate it Captain see you on the next video.😉👍
You have been honest and up front about it. There has never been a secret about your affiliation and I appreciate your recommendations and personal usage of what you recommend.
Thanks you captain and i think i was just targeted by amazon to cancel me due to they are canceling affiliates. Thanks for your support cap. And see you on the next video😉👍🎣
I agree with you, captain. They have no morals, but we all need to stand up to these big bullies, so they can understand we pull the Strings not them and thanks for watching captain.😉👍
Stay safe captain and by all means don’t let that corporate greedy company piss you off ,, Amazon use to be a pretty great deal but when your prime membership stopped receiving overnight deliveries and when they bought out the rights to the NFL games on Thursday nights I said screw them, they are definitely going in the wrong direction at least in my eyes. But that’s corporate America at its best and for all those people that will say OH BUT WAIT, they employ so many people, we’ll talk to those people that work there and they will give you a complete wake up call to their work practices.
Very true. Captain and a employee of amadon't make a comment here and told me that that will fire them on the spot for any reason without good reasons. That is just the way a big company rules . So we help this company get big. And this is the way that they function. We created a monster and now we need to stop feeding that. Monster, and thank you, captain, for all your support by watching see you on the next one👍😉
In 2022 Amazon avoided paying over 5 Billion in Federal taxes and we're the idiots who let them get away with it and someone needs to come up with another platform. Your videos are great and you're a stand-up guy and much respect to you.
thanks cap and yes we build this company up now we must branch out and support other businesses for our purchases so that way at the end we have other vendors available , thanks for your support cap😉💪⚓
Good on you Captain, stand up for your rights and dignity, don’t let the big bully intimidate you. I’m a Amazon affiliated my self too but since they dropped their commissions so much I stopped using them too, only buying from them what I can’t get from anyone else and it’s urgent otherwise I developed a new way to plan ahead and order from the small local business and by the time I’m back from my trip everything is arrived whatever is for my boat, cars or house. So keep your head up and look after yourself.
Yes i agree cap. Using other vendors help them stay in business and that way we dont help build a monopoly like amazon get bigger for later, and that company will walk all over us, Tha ks for your support and please drive that Rig safe cap.see you on the road cap.😉👍⚓️
I was a employee at a fulfillment center and out of nowhere they said they are going to pay me to quit lol. No big deal, I've only worked there 6 months and they paid me $1000 to quit, weird but I'll take it. These billion dollar corporations don't care about anyone or anything. Safe navigating cap. Happy holidays.🎉🎉🎉
Captain. I worked for Amazon as a delivery driver and they drop workers like no tomorrow for absolutely no reason. Even there Amazon flex drivers also. They just turn off there app so drivers can no longer do deliveries. With zero explanation
wow cap. that sucks they dont have no manners on how to be human , and thank you for your service because i know you work very hard for us to have our products , thanks for watching cap,and drive safe 😉👍
Hey Cap. Long time viewer watched every episode, but this one I worry about what these giants are capable of doing. Your content is awesome for boaters. Thank you for your what you do.
In Social Science it is called "McDonaldization" when the human factor is removed by using mechanism. I am old school, old fashioned, and believe in face to face. I worked online internationally, but I was live on call with the customers in real time. Now I work at a counter in Big Pine Key, and face real people all day long. I also prefer talking to humans for any interraction.
Hi Capt.... I'm sorry to hear all this. Like some others, I too buy from Amazon, but I am sure I'm not one of their big customers, as I also order from Walmart and many other smaller companies. It makes me sick to hear how Amazon has treated you, (and probably many others). It's not a surprise that a company like Amazon is not true to their word; shows lack of integrity on their part. You are the epitome of the entrepreneurial spirit and I admire you for that. I'd say this issue is a bigger loss for Amazon than for you but I know Amazon is so huge, and that losing even a Thousand accounts would be nothing more than a grain a sand to them..... Stay the course Captain, and and thank you for taking us along on your trips!
hello Andrew and very true words cap. and after the FTC wins this case lets see how it will affect amazon , because big giants fall down too, thanks for your awesome support cap, and see you on the next video 😉👍💪
Good to hear from you also, Bruddah. I wanted to add that I agree with the others that commented that you are an excellent representative of Amazon. You also gave us info on the good deals on the equipment that you tested and use. I bought the same pole spear you have, and was looking at getting the same stainless steel anchor and rode fittings you have as they match my needs perfectly also.
Yes, I agree with you, captain. We need to support the other vendors too. So they don't go bankrupt and we have them here for when this Big company's like Amazon go under. We still have another option. Thanks for watching captain.😉👍🎣
Especially when we build them to build this big. Now we need to look for other options. And thank you for watching and supporting this channel, captain.
Captain, you’re a proud man, but you’ve got over 36K subs. I wish you would just set up a PayPal link in your videos. If everyone sent just a dollar, that’d get you to the Bahamas and back all year. Although I’d love to go to the Bahamas, it’s not realistic right now for several reasons. Idk if you fully appreciate the entertainment you provide for us, and it’s worth paying for.
I lose significant revenue being demonetized by RUclips, which is more of a risk with a hunting channel, but have always steered clear of the Amazon affiliate program…. It never seemed a justifiable return on the effort. At the end of the day these (Amazon, RUclips, etc) are all private businesses that have a right to conduct business the way they want, but it’s the lack of transparency and arbitrary application of their guidelines that I find irritating. Enjoy your channel and hope you find ways to continue monetizing it…….. even if it’s something you love doing, it takes a lot of work!
Wow captain love this video someone has to stand up to these company tyrants...it's awesome hope this video goes viral...I will share the heck out of it. What a bunch of crooked ppl they are.
Thank you, captain and yes, I really appreciate it if we all share it and help get people's attention so they can. Understand that we are the consumers. Thanks for watching captain.,
Good day friend, that is unbelievable, the way Amazon is treating you! File a joint action law suit keep posting what they are doing to you . I’ll think twice about Amazon , next time I’m shopping good luck Captain!
I just dropped my Amazon prime I retired this summer and stopped spending money so I dropped them. I’ve even been out shopping for groceries at deal prices
I deal with no company that I can not reach a real person by phone. if I get a robot or I have to leave a message, I delete the contact. I look forward to your next trip. Our next boat trip is to St. Augustine to see the holiday lights. see you on the water some day. Thank you.
Hang in there Cap. The one constant in life is CHANGE. One door closes another will open. Amazon is getting to be so much a part of our shopping life. We need to consider making some changes. Delivery trucks run up and down my street all day, Land fills full of packing materials. Long term, it's probably not in our best interest.
so true cap more exasust from delivery trucks and more waste of packaging , it just to be simple in the past but now we are in a fast move, thanks for watching cap,
About IA . It's really scary. I use the most basic system for website purposes and you can see the potential behind it. Let's just hope Terminator was just a movie
LOL captain pretty soon we're going to have to fight the machine to survive LO. L. Thank you for watching the have a great day, captain see you on the next one.🎣⚓️👍
That’s awful and a shame Captain. You were always upfront and I saw it as another good way to support the channel, gas is too expensive and every bit helps. I was looking forward to go back to some of your videos for Christmas gifts ideas. Like others have said, screw them!
Yes, captain, I agree with you. And thank you so much for having me in mind. I really appreciate your support in this past year's it's been great Having your support and no worries soon will be out there again. And I just gotta work more at my job LO. L.😉👍⚓️🎣 Thanks again for your support captain
Yes, this is the reason because they're turning Amazon into monopoly and bullies. So the vendors really get hit. And we're building this company up so they can walk all over us. It's time for us to show them who we are. Thank you for watching captain and see you on the next video.👍⚓️🎣
That’s horrible. I can’t imagine how much money you brought into Amazon and their vendors over the years. I had similar issues with google stores trying to sell our coozies(btw check our last vid where you won a free one!). Good luck Cap!
The only thing is that there's no wait for me to prove it. They frost my account completely. And there's no way for me to bring up any receipts. That's how they are smart because they surprise you. By canceling your accounts so you don't retrieve any information. Thank you for the suggestion, captain.
Bro I just bought same T-shirt you wearing . I love the shirt but also to Support you . Amazon is going way down after Bezo leave the Company The Customer service was one of the best , lately its as bad as anywhere else Btw . Don't forget you owe me an out on the reef hat and a beer 👍
you are awesome buddy thank you for your long time support , and i took a hat for you 2 years ago to Bahia Honda but we did not see each other, but yes i owe you that beer 😉💪👍 hello to the family cap.🤗
Hey Cap. I was wondering if you could possibly consider leaving some info in the description about the equipment you use without links to Amazon? Also will your links still be available on older videos? Regardless of the answers, we will of course continue to support you and your channel any way we can. ❤ Finally an off topic question..... How is the puppy working out? God bless you my friend. 🙏
Thank you for the suggestion, captain, and yes, the puppy is doing great. She is so big and hopefully soon I will be able to bring her out and water my videos. But right now she's full grown and she's a very happy active puppy. Thank you for asking. And see you on the next video captain👍⚓️🎣
And I'm very grateful to have you as a viewer. Captain that supported me by using my links. I'm always grateful to you. Thank you for being a loyal viewer of my channel, captain.😉👍
Damn captain I’m sorry to hear what you had to go through. I have Long believed that when people become wealthy it amplifies who they really are. Generous people become more generous and ruthless people become more ruthless. Personally, if I was one of the richest people in the world, rather than continue to accumulate wealth that I can never spend I would rather distribute some of it amongst my employees to keep them happy. All of my employees made me wealthy, so why not do the same? I’m sure that people still have an interest in the products that you use so maybe you can just list what the product is but not as a link through Amazon. For instance, if somebody likes your dive knife, then just tell them what type it is and they can go buy it somewhere. Also, if vendors kept their prices on the lower side, they would have a lot more business diverted from Amazon to them. I really enjoy your channel and I’m sorry that you got screwed. I’m looking forward to your next adventure. “As always, navigate safe.”
hello cap and you are awesome thanks for you support and you are so right about helping others because that money will never be spend , but this millionaire they are so gritty and they buy a 500 million dollar yacht that they can never enjoy fully, true and sad at the same time ,thanks for being a awesome viewer of my channel cap.😉👍
I haven’t had a chance to check out public square yet but I hear it’s like Amazon but with only American made products. Maybe we should all switch over to that.
Astonishing Amazon is driving out affiliates like you. Even more surprising they did it so abruptly and without a way to talk to someone at Amazon about it. I'll be amazed if Amazon stiffs you for the $1500 they owe you but I guess it could happen.
Thank you, captain, and yes, we don't need to glorify Amazon on this way. They need to appreciate us as building their company, but sometimes it goes. A different route with company greet. Thank you captain for watching and see you on the next video👍👍⚓️🎣
All these companies have no loyalty, so we cannot feed these giants. I hope things go good for you. Captain, and we find other ways to sell products. And things were watching
Hey Cap, sorry to hear this happened to you, but you are right they are so big its just a monster to try to fight. That said you are so transparent: I say good for you telling it like it is. Hopefully they will do the right thing but honestly, you are not a guy that just comes across as a paid advertisement for Amazon that's exactly why I enjoy your content, and frankly I suspect that is why others watch as well. Honestly just keep making good content and we will keep watching!
very true cap. and thanks for your awesome support and yes you my viewers are more important then amazon because you my viewer is what makes my channel alive , and yes i will keep making content cap, thank you and have a awesome night 😉👍
I'm with you. I myself purchase a lot on Amazon. Once they change from human to AI my membership and purchases will be canceled with them and probably use Walmart but will see.
Be careful. Some people have been banned from purchasing from amazon without any reasons. Some people think it’s due to something Alexa recorded and it was a reason enough for Amazon to ban shoppers.
Sorry cap! I’m sure other smaller businesses would love to work with you and youd probably make a little more money! Change is necessary sometimes in order to grow. You got this cap!
@@OutOnTheReef you know we started an affiliate program with Amazon as well and we’re now starting to see very little (if any) money coming from it. Less than $30 a month I’d say. So it’s a little disheartening to see that this has happened to you when you were making significantly more. On a side note regarding Amazon, we were wanting to order the exhaust pipe for our generator and you had recently done the video on it. We were planning on using your link to get it. I think it will help with getting the carbon monoxide away from the boat.
@perfectfitboating yes mos definitely Get the long muffler and be careful because it gets really hot. Also get the heat shield that I use. So that way it protects it that way. You don't get burnt captain very important . And hope to see your video soon👍👍⚓️
You certainly have explained your affiliation with Amazon on numeroius occasions, find alternatives as we all are, we all need to support the small business Amazon has a business plan for the future and it looks like it does not include affiliates. Sometimes these relationships do more harm than good.
yes cap i agree and amazon wants to knock down all other business that way they have no competition and after that happens prices will go up and we don't have option then just pay Hight prices, thanks for watching cap.
Go Captain. I use Amazon a lot, and I live abroad and still use them a lot, even though I pay a lot for every pound. Amazon should really think about the way they treat everyone. I hope they get it right. I will always see your videos. I have learned a lot and hope your channel grows every day, more and more. All the best for you. Keep it coming. Props Clear!
Do you have another way of online business to work with,if yes...well just let them go.keep your integrity it's worth way more than the convenience.stay good Captain.from Mauritius Island
yes cap im looking at other ways to purchase my products and as other vendors get better at shipping speed i will be all over it, thanks for watching from beautiful Mauritius 😉💪👍
Yikes, this Amazon stuff is crazy. Well, saved me some money? I was going to buy you a new generator for Christmas, after you got carried away with the last one????😊😊😊
Your timing for this video coincided with my trying to use your Amazon purchases list to identify the dinghy you use. I've tried using the 'search' function here to locate the video where you identified your 'shore boat' but have been unsuccessful. It's inexpensive and light weight; could you please identify it once again for us. Many thanks!
Hello, captain, and they discontinue the one I'm using so I had another 1 being recommended very similar to mine, and that 1 I really don't know how to get that link back. But look for one similar that mine is a 3 people raft. Hopefully this will help captain thank you for watching😉🎣
Your information is still there on there Amazon servers. They make it look like your stuff isn’t there when it is. They are just showing you what they want you to see.
That is very possible. Captain, but I cannot ask them to pay me something that I have no proof since they don't give me access to my account. But thanks for your answer captain it really helps👍😉🎣
I used to work at Walmart in 2007 for a short time and I can tell you if they fire you for any reason or made up bullshit Walmart does blacklist you from working there ever again
Total oppression on behalf of Amazon. It’s a shame what they are doing to the little guy. There has to be a way to 🖕Amazon. Stay positive. God bless. 🙏
This is so wrong but it seems like this is how the world is going to be. It's probably not even a person that made this decision. This is really the reason I watch your channel. At least I get to see adventure and the real world. I hope nothing changes.
i thought the same think machines are making this decisions , and yes my channel will continue with nothing changing cap,thanks for your support by watching cap, 😉💪👍
The Big Bully on the Block ! And we all bought into it and now you see the end result . Time for the change let me know on where I can go to get your New products and I will support you 100 % my friend .. Shame Shame on Bezos ..
More and more the big guy sticks it to the little guy. Yet, there are folks who don't want government regulation and oversight until, of course, they get kicked in the rear. By the way, if a vendor is very successful selling a particular product, the platform/site/page will start selling that product and eat into the vendor's sales. Anyway, good luck, Skipper. Keep sailing ahead.
Very good information, captain. Thank you for sharing and I agree. And always the little guys Gets run over by this big corporation. But we gotta support the other vendors. So they don't go out of business. Because when this big company goes down, we still have other options and thank you for watching captain..👍😉🎣
Wow this is crazy! Sorry to hear man. This is a variation of communism/dictatorship where it's "their way or the highway". In commerce it is a monopoly and they are doing affiliates very wrong. I totally agree with your points. I hope this is noticed by someone higher in Amazon with some sort of a brain to understand this is not the way to treat people that not only are they your affiliates, but they are also your own customers which are helping you grow even more!
Yes cap. Is like Comunist i agree thats why the FTC is taking action against amazon, this big company they are all about greed ,even though they meke so much money 💰 they are not happy they want more at any cost, thanks for watching cap 👍
Captain….you are a stand up guy of great character which comes across in your channel. Amazon needs to revisit their policy and reverse their decision. You were and are a great representative for them as your work is second to none!! Truly a great craft person.

Thanks you captain and i think i was just targeted by amazon to cancel me due to they are canceling affiliates. Thanks for your support cap. And see you on the next video😉👍🎣
Amazon is too big to care, screw them. Partner up and promote local shops instead.
very true cap. i sure will , thanks for watching cap.
The era of small businesses over pal..Don't you know that??Over...done..
Sorry you are out of the affiliate program. These corporations are ethically and morally bankrupt. Thanks for the important information.
I agree with you, captain. They have no morals, but we all need to stand up to these big bullies, so they can understand we pull the Strings not them and thanks for watching captain.😉👍
Stay safe captain and by all means don’t let that corporate greedy company piss you off ,, Amazon use to be a pretty great deal but when your prime membership stopped receiving overnight deliveries and when they bought out the rights to the NFL games on Thursday nights I said screw them, they are definitely going in the wrong direction at least in my eyes.

That’s horrible. I can’t imagine how much money you brought into Amazon and their vendors over the years. I had similar issues with google stores trying to sell our coozies(btw check our last vid where you won a free one!). Good luck Cap!
Well, sorry to hear that. Captain and I have not seen your last video. I'm going to see it right now thank you for the recommendation captain👍😉⚓️
Use small claims court to get your $1,500.
The only thing is that there's no wait for me to prove it. They frost my account completely. And there's no way for me to bring up any receipts. That's how they are smart because they surprise you. By canceling your accounts so you don't retrieve any information. Thank you for the suggestion, captain.
Great video Capitan social media and big companies are getting far with control and sensorship. Glad to see you stand for your freedom and dignity
thanks cap. and yes this is a mess and we pay the price since we have worked hard as a affiliate, saludos capi 😉👍⚓
Amazon should be lucky they have you pushing them hell with them buddy.
they will loose in the log run cap. but they will not have my support anymore , thanks for watching cap.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts the transparency is admirable
thanks Mike i try my best always to be transparent with you my viewers cap. thanks for watching 👍😉
I am dropping my prime membership after seeing & hearing what you said. We don’t need AI taking over human beings.
i agree cap. the world will be against the machines soon , thanks for watching cap.
Bro I just bought same T-shirt you wearing . I love the shirt but also to Support you .
Amazon is going way down after Bezo leave the Company
The Customer service was one of the best , lately its as bad as anywhere else
Btw . Don't forget you owe me an out on the reef hat and a beer 👍
you are awesome buddy thank you for your long time support , and i took a hat for you 2 years ago to Bahia Honda but we did not see each other, but yes i owe you that beer 😉💪👍 hello to the family cap.🤗
@@OutOnTheReef ✌️. Let me know when you in the area. I'm almost living on the keys
That happens a lot.
There was 1 guy doing product shorts on amazon.
Its on their site.
They cut him because of something he hadn't done.
Yes, I agree. It's just excuses to get rid of the promoters and use them for when they need them. It's pretty messed up.
Hey Cap. I was wondering if you could possibly consider leaving some info in the description about the equipment you use without links to Amazon? Also will your links still be available on older videos? Regardless of the answers, we will of course continue to support you and your channel any way we can. ❤ Finally an off topic question..... How is the puppy working out? God bless you my friend. 🙏
Thank you for the suggestion, captain, and yes, the puppy is doing great. She is so big and hopefully soon I will be able to bring her out and water my videos. But right now she's full grown and she's a very happy active puppy. Thank you for asking. And see you on the next video captain👍⚓️🎣
You could still put the product you used for your various projects like manufacturer, description then let us find it?
Thank you, captain, For the greatest suggestion and see you on the next video captain👍⚓️🎣
Thank you. I’ve used and purchased many products that you’ve recommended over the years.
And I'm very grateful to have you as a viewer. Captain that supported me by using my links. I'm always grateful to you. Thank you for being a loyal viewer of my channel, captain.😉👍
Damn captain I’m sorry to hear what you had to go through. I have Long believed that when people become wealthy it amplifies who they really are. Generous people become more generous and ruthless people become more ruthless. Personally, if I was one of the richest people in the world, rather than continue to accumulate wealth that I can never spend I would rather distribute some of it amongst my employees to keep them happy. All of my employees made me wealthy, so why not do the same? I’m sure that people still have an interest in the products that you use so maybe you can just list what the product is but not as a link through Amazon. For instance, if somebody likes your dive knife, then just tell them what type it is and they can go buy it somewhere. Also, if vendors kept their prices on the lower side, they would have a lot more business diverted from Amazon to them. I really enjoy your channel and I’m sorry that you got screwed. I’m looking forward to your next adventure. “As always, navigate safe.”
hello cap and you are awesome thanks for you support and you are so right about helping others because that money will never be spend , but this millionaire they are so gritty and they buy a 500 million dollar yacht that they can never enjoy fully, true and sad at the same time ,thanks for being a awesome viewer of my channel cap.😉👍
That’s crazy man. They started their own shorts and video nonesense on their app.
Yes you have agreat point👍
I haven’t had a chance to check out public square yet but I hear it’s like Amazon but with only American made products. Maybe we should all switch over to that.
i will check it out cap and i have used Zoro and they are pretty good but they are working on getting bigger, thanks for watching cap.
Wow cap, that’s messed up … man, I loved your links …
Astonishing Amazon is driving out affiliates like you. Even more surprising they did it so abruptly and without a way to talk to someone at Amazon about it. I'll be amazed if Amazon stiffs you for the $1500 they owe you but I guess it could happen.
Hello John and yes i was surprised too and i hope i get my last commission, thanks for watching cap.👍😉⚓️
I think you’re right! You are handling it the right way.
Thank you, captain, and yes, we don't need to glorify Amazon on this way. They need to appreciate us as building their company, but sometimes it goes. A different route with company greet. Thank you captain for watching and see you on the next video👍👍⚓️🎣
Captain the same exactly thing happened to me with eBay. Exactly the same
All these companies have no loyalty, so we cannot feed these giants.
I hope things go good for you. Captain, and we find other ways to sell products. And things were watching
The hell with Amazon. Go with patreon. Get the money you deserve. I love your vids brother, Joel Torres here from Brooklyn ny
you are awesome Joel and thanks for your support cap.and thanks for watching from Brooklyn 👍😉😉⚓
Thank you too skipper
Hey Cap, sorry to hear this happened to you, but you are right they are so big its just a monster to try to fight. That said you are so transparent: I say good for you telling it like it is. Hopefully they will do the right thing but honestly, you are not a guy that just comes across as a paid advertisement for Amazon that's exactly why I enjoy your content, and frankly I suspect that is why others watch as well. Honestly just keep making good content and we will keep watching!
very true cap. and thanks for your awesome support and yes you my viewers are more important then amazon because you my viewer is what makes my channel alive , and yes i will keep making content cap, thank you and have a awesome night 😉👍
Support human interaction! Yes! Watch AI captain, that’ll be the next thing to fight against
yes cap. we will destroy the machine before it destroy us, thanks for watching cap.😉👍
I'm with you. I myself purchase a lot on Amazon. Once they change from human to AI my membership and purchases will be canceled with them and probably use Walmart but will see.
Great point cap, same here, thanks for watching
Shopping at amazon has continued to go downhill in my opinion. I buy very little from them now compared to recent years
We all will shop less cap. And they will see that and wonder ware t
Did they go wrong, thanks for watching cap 👍
@@OutOnTheReef Thank You!!
Be careful. Some people have been banned from purchasing from amazon without any reasons. Some people think it’s due to something Alexa recorded and it was a reason enough for Amazon to ban shoppers.
yes ad i herd amazon decided to cancel someone's acc because something in the ring doorbell
For this I will not use Amazon again and mmake sure they aren't selling knockoffs of your shirts
thanks so much for being a great support Laura and have a awesome day 👍😉
Keep your head high ,respect amigo 💪
yes thats right cap, saludos y buenas noche capi 💪😉🦈
These billionaires are slowly but surely believing they are God’s and these minions are falling for it!
very true cap but they all come down from the greed they are chasing, thanks for watching cap.
Sorry cap! I’m sure other smaller businesses would love to work with you and youd probably make a little more money! Change is necessary sometimes in order to grow. You got this cap!
very true cap. what sucks is all the hard work i put in to this , but you are right , thanks for watching cap.😉👍
@@OutOnTheReef you know we started an affiliate program with Amazon as well and we’re now starting to see very little (if any) money coming from it. Less than $30 a month I’d say. So it’s a little disheartening to see that this has happened to you when you were making significantly more.
On a side note regarding Amazon, we were wanting to order the exhaust pipe for our generator and you had recently done the video on it. We were planning on using your link to get it. I think it will help with getting the carbon monoxide away from the boat.
@perfectfitboating yes mos definitely Get the long muffler and be careful because it gets really hot. Also get the heat shield that I use. So that way it protects it that way. You don't get burnt captain very important .
And hope to see your video soon👍👍⚓️
Thanks for the video. I was getting ready to sign up as an affiliate. I won't waste my time now.
Is not worth the eford cap. Because amazon is getting rid of all the associates
And i lover your boat remodel i saw every video great job and yes Parker makes lots of poor quality boats
@OutOnTheReef I have 1 more video to release. Just waiting on some final editing from my daughter
@TrentonKnepp you are doing a awesome job cap.
You certainly have explained your affiliation with Amazon on numeroius occasions, find alternatives as we all are, we all need to support the small business Amazon has a business plan for the future and it looks like it does not include affiliates. Sometimes these relationships do more harm than good.
yes cap i agree and amazon wants to knock down all other business that way they have no competition and after that happens prices will go up and we don't have option then just pay Hight prices, thanks for watching cap.
Go Captain. I use Amazon a lot, and I live abroad and still use them a lot, even though I pay a lot for every pound. Amazon should really think about the way they treat everyone. I hope they get it right. I will always see your videos. I have learned a lot and hope your channel grows every day, more and more. All the best for you. Keep it coming. Props Clear!
thanks buddy and yes is very convenient shopping, and thanks for watching cap and always for your support , Prop Clear cap 😉
Do you have another way of online business to work with,if yes...well just let them go.keep your integrity it's worth way more than the convenience.stay good Captain.from Mauritius Island
yes cap im looking at other ways to purchase my products and as other vendors get better at shipping speed i will be all over it, thanks for watching from beautiful Mauritius 😉💪👍
Amazon has gotten sole rights to sell FIREBALLS the hot jawbreaker candy they have raised the price FOR 240 from 13 dollars to 59 dollars AMAZON SUCKS
Yes they have terrible practices
Yikes, this Amazon stuff is crazy. Well, saved me some money? I was going to buy you a new generator for Christmas, after you got carried away with the last one????😊😊😊
lol cap yes i open it like APE 🦍thanks for thinking of me cap. and have a awesome night, and soon you will see a new one cap,😉👍
Your timing for this video coincided with my trying to use your Amazon purchases list to identify the dinghy you use. I've tried using the 'search' function here to locate the video where you identified your 'shore boat' but have been unsuccessful. It's inexpensive and light weight; could you please identify it once again for us. Many thanks!
Hello, captain, and they discontinue the one I'm using so I had another 1 being recommended very similar to mine, and that 1 I really don't know how to get that link back. But look for one similar that mine is a 3 people raft. Hopefully this will help captain thank you for watching😉🎣
Your information is still there on there Amazon servers. They make it look like your stuff isn’t there when it is. They are just showing you what they want you to see.
That is very possible. Captain, but I cannot ask them to pay me something that I have no proof since they don't give me access to my account. But thanks for your answer captain it really helps👍😉🎣
I used to work at Walmart in 2007 for a short time and I can tell you if they fire you for any reason or made up bullshit Walmart does blacklist you from working there ever again
wow cap. this corporations are mess up , thanks for sharing that info cap, and have a great night cap.
I don’t use Amazon. Always more expensive anyway
Awesome cap. And thanks for watching cap 👍
100% agree cap. I dont have much experience with Amazon though.
thanks cap. and see you on the next video cap.
Hope to make it to Bimini soon. @@OutOnTheReef

So sorry, captain, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. But Amazon had me remove them. I know it's very inconvenient. My apologies captain👍⚓️
Wow they full of it that's why they have what they have and most are blind to it good that you let everyone know 👍🏼👍🏼
thanks for your support by watching cap.. and see you on the next video .Prop Clear cap.
📢📢Full steam ahead Captain ⚓
all aboard 😉👍😁💪
Total oppression on behalf of Amazon. It’s a shame what they are doing to the little guy. There has to be a way to 🖕Amazon. Stay positive. God bless. 🙏
thanks cap and yes i hope they dont keep doing this to other people that depend on this money, thanks for watching cap , have a great night😉👍
I agree I want human. Love watching you
Agree cap. And thanks for being a awesome viewer of my channel cap 😉⚓️🎣🛥
Go fishing and try to forget about it for a day or two. Then make new plans.
Good luck.
I like how you think captain you should be my motivator😉👍
And thank you for watching and see your next video captain👍⚓️
This is so wrong but it seems like this is how the world is going to be. It's probably not even a person that made this decision. This is really the reason I watch your channel. At least I get to see adventure and the real world. I hope nothing changes.
i thought the same think machines are making this decisions , and yes my channel will continue with nothing changing cap,thanks for your support by watching cap, 😉💪👍
The Big Bully on the Block !
And we all bought into it and now you see the end result .
Time for the change let me know on where I can go to get your New products and I will support you 100 % my friend ..
Shame Shame on Bezos ..
glenn thanks for being awesome cap and having my back. and for being part of my channel, have a awesome night cap.
More and more the big guy sticks it to the little guy. Yet, there are folks who don't want government regulation and oversight until, of course, they get kicked in the rear. By the way, if a vendor is very successful selling a particular product, the platform/site/page will start selling that product and eat into the vendor's sales. Anyway, good luck, Skipper. Keep sailing ahead.
Very good information, captain. Thank you for sharing and I agree. And always the little guys Gets run over by this big corporation. But we gotta support the other vendors. So they don't go out of business. Because when this big company goes down, we still have other options and thank you for watching captain..👍😉🎣
Makes me want to cancel my Amazon account.
Is very upsetting cap i know but what im doing is shopping les in other sites to help other vendors so they stick around, thanks for watching cap 👍
I stand right with you.
Thanks cap. For your support 😉👍⚓️
Good for you captain!
thanks cap. for watching and support cap.
Captain your auto pilot is it a robot 😊
lol no cap is just a device, 😉😁👍👍
I reckon Jeff Bezos, is jealous of your channel. Bet he sets up in competition with his boat 😂😂
I agree, captain. His yacht is only 800 feet LOL and mine is only 21 feet of pure crooked pilothouse 🤣🤣
RUclips does the samething..ghost channels..
There loss your channel is amazing.
Thank you captain and we will move on to better things, thanks for being part of my channel cap. 👍🛥⚓️
AI, automation..the world is changing .
very true very fast
Hi Cap’n I’m sure most of us subscribers are with you man! Just let us know where you sell and we’ll support you! 👍
You're awesome captain thank you for always having my back😉👍👍👍
Hey, you do the right way
Cap, I have something I would like to send to you. Do you have a P.O. Box that I can send to?
Hello cap. Im sorry but i dont have one😢
Wow this is crazy! Sorry to hear man. This is a variation of communism/dictatorship where it's "their way or the highway". In commerce it is a monopoly and they are doing affiliates very wrong. I totally agree with your points. I hope this is noticed by someone higher in Amazon with some sort of a brain to understand this is not the way to treat people that not only are they your affiliates, but they are also your own customers which are helping you grow even more!
Yes cap. Is like Comunist i agree thats why the FTC is taking action against amazon, this big company they are all about greed ,even though they meke so much money 💰 they are not happy they want more at any cost, thanks for watching cap 👍
