@@LyfeUntethered Howdy! My world is revolving around a new RV with a structural issue. So, here I sit in Indiana waiting to drop it off at the factory so they can try and fix it. 🤬
Lately I’ve been watching sailing channels and sadly I find too many sailors are either brave as a bear or are missing more nuts than a Studebaker … how do you go out to open sea without performing a 100% inspection on all systems and break down all over the place then blame the boat?? M now legally blind and haven’t sailed since 2008 but I know better than getting underway without checking every electrical , mechanical or hydraulic connection on the vessel. For crying out loud one channel even had ripped sails in an oceanic crossing.
@@LyfeUntethered you could, nothing wrong with it. The route I did was a buddy took me out on his sailboat and gave me a crash course on showing me how to tack/jib and the mechanics of the main sheet. I read a bunch of how to books then just took my sailboat out sailing, honing what I know and watched videos on RUclips for the things I didn't. I still learn little tips and tricks now and then. I'm not the end all and be all of sailors by a long shot lol, but I'm confident I could do a transatlantic crossing and not die.....now watch me do a transatlantic and die...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Should u get a boat? 😳 Hows Leila’s barf factor liking that idea? Maybe a canoe? 🤔 So the only bright side of your hole (😆) boat trip I can see, is it didn’t snow lol. 🍻
So, rather than all the drama, an experienced intelligent sailor would have prepared for the journey. But hey that wouldn't get you views on youtube would it. That thing needs to be dry docked and worked on. You essentially sailing an old clunker that could kill people, just like that arrogant ocean gate bloke. It's all good for likes till someone's lives are lost, and then your insurance company and investigators thankyou for the video evidence.
I just wanted to add, that I love watching sailing including your videos, but I'd rather be harsh and see you guys over and over than drawing and losing it all.
I get it. But I probably didn’t make clear that we spent a week working on a boat that was on the hard for months, supposedly fixed, but it wasn’t. The shoddy workmanship of that boatyard didn’t fully reveal itself until we were at sea. We bailed after 16 days.2 months later, I’m back to finish the journey. Like at this second I’m in Nassau typing this. Gonna start wrenching in the morning.
We have been to the Exumas 5 times. Stayed at Staniel (in your background) and a private island. Hard to find a more beautiful place. The Grotto you were in is pretty cool. Go in at low tide and high tide - it is all different. There are other passageways out of it than the two main entries. Good luck with your adventures. Get that boat restored correctly, and it will be good to you.
OMG, your best video yet! Loved it! The lupines, the basalt columns, hot Springs, the... meat? The ponies, the tectonic plates, the geysers, midnight sun, so fun!! You guys are funny. Thanks for sharing. I hope those tinnitus and dog food ads that interrupted your epic adventure helped pay for it.
You guys lasted longer than I would have! Thanks for sharing this crazy adventure.
Hey Mike! If we were smart we would have bailed sooner! How’s your world man?

@@LyfeUntethered yes sir. Or trying to. I can’t believe how much stuff is breaking all the time.

I enjoyed this, seriously consider getting your own sailboat and heading back down because I think you could make it work
I really want to! Thinking of learning on a MacGregor 26? Not a huge committment, can trailer to lakes and ocean on calm days? any thoughts?
@@LyfeUntethered catalina 22, but McGregor will do you just fine to learn on
@@PyeGuySailing Thanks I'll check it out. Gonna take sailing lessons first I think!
