Hi Guys. I've been watching quite a while. So glad you got back out to open water last episode. Just a thought on filling your alcohol stove. I used to keep the fuel in the gallon cans and use a turkey baster to fill the stove canisters. Worked well for me. Also, I did not mention in when you asked for bread comments, but the warmer temps in Fla will help. Most yeast will not get very active to raise the bread until temps are in mid to upper 70s (or higher). Just another reason to get south! Cheers
I could almost smell that fresh bread all the way here in So. Cal.! Yummo!
Hi , for solvents I like to use the little pumps like soft soap or west system products. It hard sometimes to find the right pump to match the threads but once you do it makes dispensing so easy and safer too. Cheers Warren.
Herby, you're my kind of guy! I would have gone under that pier in a heartbeat! Smart dude!
The B&B looked like a nice change of pace and nice to be able to soak in a hot bath, or take a long hot shower. Sometimes we forget the simple things in life are what make comfort in comfortable. Florida looks like a nice change from SC. It would be nice to know where the dingy dock was before you left the boat. Save some time. Can't you radio the dockmaster for directions?
Haha, always fund squeezing the dingi through the tight spaces.... had it in myanmar a lot. Both under bridges and upriver whe it got so tight you culdnt turn around any more 😂
I love the way you think Herbie cuz I would have done the same thing. .3 is much better than a mile! HA! PEACE OUT! Ü
Ìstant victory is never as sweet as victory preceded by a few failures. Your guys faces prove that. Great video as usual.
Congrats on the bread! The other attempts looked more like organic door stops. :)
I bet I know who soaked in a nice hot bath!
I liked it. thx for your videos.
Ahhhh....The bed and Breakfast. Yall deserve and good rest after all that ICW trouble.
Welcome to Florida....
Great job on the bread! It'll take some practice (and the right flour) to get it fine-grained to use for sandwiches. But you make so little that you just have enough for snacks and dessert.
Herb, I hate to see you having to row (really wish you had an electric motor) yet I love to watch you row. (What can I say? )
Dude, were you actually rowing the dinghy in your jammies?
Yep! We rowed in to get showers. I put on my real clothes once I was clean :)
Good on yer mate!
I am guessing you have tossed the $500 month budget out the window with all the restaurants and Bed and Breakfasts.
Actually, we are only $300 into February money. We have done very well and had some extra cash on hand so we decided to pamper and splurge :)
Rigging Doctor good for you!
is it just me or do you resemble Chevy Chase ?
Haha! Sounds like it’s time for a haircut
# Row row row your boat gently down the stream ( good voice eh ) oars rarely go wrong !
Which will save you a lot of Dough, greenbacks, etc.
work on your sound please,,,
Did Mattie approve of the plaid pants that Herbie was wearing? I am not trying to be annoying BUT those pants just don’t project “smart professional dentist”. Seriously, the pants don’t make the man so wear them if you must. Fair winds and keep smiling.
Totally disagree regarding the dinghy. At some point not having a motorized dinghy could be a matter of life & death. Besides which, it so limits your options regarding where you can safely anchor and places of interest you can safely reach, especially in the Bahamas and the Caribbean, that it's a total false economy.
We have an outboard for it. We just haven't needed to use it yet. As soon as you start it up, its life clock starts ticking. We'll probably use it in the Bahamas. It's much more of a life or death situation, however to not have oars aboard incase the motor dies, which is far more likely.
Glad you have the engine. Never suggested you leave the oars behind.
Best of luck to both of you. Fair winds and a following sea.
Seriously? A couple of years ago I gave away a 4 hp outboard that my Grandfather bought in 1970. We had used it on a 14 foot aluminum boat every summer for years, had hundreds of hours on it. When I inherited it, it hadn't used it in close to 20 years, so I pulled out the carb, dismantled and cleaned it, put it back together, replaced the plugs and water impeller, and the motor started up in about 6 pulls. Ran like a top.
So please, don't be concerned about a "life clock." If you want to be able to count on it, use it often.
