Almost took an eye out with a pair of scisors, left pigeon eggs to an unsuspecting neighbour, looked right in to the barrel of a gun to check if it's loaded! ...well, she's definitely the terror on the water, yet, great couple! Enjoy it fellas, because we sure do enjoy watching you having fun on water. Cheers!
Thats guys for the nice long vlog. I hope you keep making the vlog at 15 mins. You make my life better thank you. John The Limo Driver from Kansas city.
I want to wish both of you Fair Winds & Calm Seas and life experiences that will ever be with you. In 1994 my wife and I sailed our CS40 (Sail #5225) from Toronto to South America and back. Three years doing exactly what your doing right now. The CS was a great vessel for the journey and performed flawlessly. Be well!
To Cat & Will.....Great adventure so far. Thanks for filming and taking me aboard. I look forward to the next video. I wish you two the best. I'm still trying to understand the "green flash". It was an awesome sunset never the less.....So. Cal Daddy
Just so you know, Lion fish are very good eating. Cut their spikes off with sissors before cleaning. Some people cut their spikes off while still on the spear. Great video, thanks for sharing!
Chalk up your fuel filter to lessons learned. Imagine the first time you tried to start the boat in St Kitts was because you were dragging? Rut Roh! Thanks for the video, great seeing y'all again!
Thanks for another wonderful video. I really like your presentation style - the review of what happened since the last video, with tons of video video footage. Good Vibrations!
Thanks for all of the kind words! We've been moving at a pretty fast pace now and will head for Dominica likely tomorrow. Another video is in the works - but we've been having so much fun exploring Guadeloupe, the Saints, and free diving that video editing has gone on the back burner. But soon my friends, soon! The next one will feature our trip to Montserrat to see the volcano ruins. By far the most powerful land experience we have had. Happy Monday - Cat & Will
+Monday Never Looks like you're having a great time with a few hiccups along the way, ie filter etc. How have you guys planned your routes etc.? Just trying to get a feel for your exploits as we plan ours in the near future. I hope the seat is working for you. Have you tried it while at the helm?
Another great video to keep us landlocked (for now) sailors smiling! If you guys get the chance, please consider a "wind muff" for your microphone. Super cheap to purchase, but you can make one out of cloth even the "ear" of a stuffed animal that you can find at any port. . Good job on the Lion Fish. Cull them wherever you can find them. As mentioned earlier, they are an excellent eating fish. Might have to shoot several to make a full meal, but they are delicious, pan fried, broiled or baked in aluminum foil. Don't let the eels have all of the fun! :-) . Thanks for sharing your adventures and smiles. Cheers.
Fuzzy growth on the anchor rode maybe, but a bird making a nest in your sail?! You guys must have really enjoyed your stay in St. Martin! ;) Keep it up you two, great video!
Looking forward to your next vlog. Keep it up.....well done on the engine repair! Luckily never needed to do same after one year of yachting the atlantic
G'day Guys, great vid. I thought you were very kind to the Doves. I am building a 38foot cat and I had swallows build 2 nests in it, the first time I relocated it to a tree, the 2nd was in our cabin... so I threw on the ground in front of the boat {smashed} I was sending a message .. "you birds are not living my boat before I am.... they haven't been back..lol Cheers from Aus. Russell
I saw the green sliver!!! Ha ha. How many times did she have to review it before she saw it too? I'm so glad I found you guys today. I mean heck, if you gotta work on a Sunday and a Valentine's Day at that, might as well enjoy it! Thanks for the enjoyment. Happy sailing
You two are really good at sharing your interesting adventures. Had I been smarter and braver while young, I'd done the same as you are enjoying now.....
I am a diesel mech by trade and think I have the same Yanmar on Adventurous. 3GM30. I use the priming bulb the same way. Many boaters don't know that trick or how to change a filter. I do love your videos. Keep livin the dream
I've always been a skeptic as well about the "Green Flash" but now that Will has seen it, I'm a believer. I'm also color blind so I probably wouldn't see it anyway. Thanks Will! Great job on the diesel fix. Where to next?
When he said "It's time to say goodbye to the bird" and she said...sorry PETA...and started walking up there with a spatula and a plate....I said noooooooooooo she's not going to eat that bird..or the eggs...Thank goodness I soon learned thereafter it was just an extraction!!
Green Flash... Can only be seen or most likely seen Nov - Mar? In the Caribe... That's what I read or was told... Looking good guys! Oh, and the eels can eat them without becoming sick?
Thanks for a great video. I grew up in St Kitts, and have not been there for about 5 years. You brought back some nice memories.Where are you both off to next?
+Calvin Smith Not good form at all, unfortunately things like that seem to come back three fold. There's more to sailing than just riding around in a boat. Poseidon is very unforgiving, this is why there are so many traditions . At sea, sometimes you need all the luck you can get, best not to spoil it.
I'm sure the green flash is the way the human eye compensates from staring at a bright orange object, that suddenly disappears.. A bit like the same way as staring at a bright object, then closing your eyes - we see a residule negative image in the back of the eyes !! Thats my theory :) Anyhow - Another great video....
+john wheatley Not really. The Green Flash is definitely real. I've seen it on several occasions and was able to photograph it from the beach in Destin, FL in October of 2013.
+Chris Desselles Confession.... I too, have seen this phenomena, but decided that what i saw was my own brain interpretation of the rapid colour change. The camera too, has to interpret data from fluctuating voltage from each deep sensor well in the chip... Then this is interpreted into colour via a bayer filter, so not necessarily a true colour.
I'm not on Flickr. But it's on photobucket.com . I wish I could attach it here for you. Anyway, the GF is well documented by many sources over the last 50-60 years or so. Look it up.
FYI. I do astrophotography so am fairly well versed in digital photography and processing. The Bayer matrix simply allows what are essentially monochrome gray scale images to be assigned a R&B value based upon individual pixel positions in the matrix. While there is an added Ha filter over the whole sensor to protect it from infrared energy, the colors are true for the visible spectrum.
+Adventurous Boat Not difficult at all. For bleeding after a filter change, I pop the fuel line off at the engine and put an inline priming bulb in place (like on an outboard). I open the bleed screw on the lift pump and give a few squeezes until air stops bubbling and fuel runs out clear, then close the screw. Remove the priming bulb and stick the fuel line back. I open the bleed screw back up and use the little lift pump lever to push out any air bubbles introduced by removing the bulb. Then I move on to the next bleed screw (right before the start of the high pressure side). Basically the priming bulb is just to get the bulk of the fuel back to the engine after messing with the racor filter, since that can introduce a lot of air. Once most of it's out the tiny lift pump lever is sufficient for the remainder of the job. Never had to open up the fittings on the high pressure side and crank the engine over, etc - that job might be a little more challenging.
We get the aurora borealis in the Netherlands in deep winter a few times, it's green too, it's the magnetic field you observe reacting to the sun's radiation, so it's possible you seen green for a second, but i didn't see anything on the video !
Been cutting my own hair for 15 years with a pair of Wahl clippers. Save 15 bucks a month or so and it look as good as if someone else did it. We get bats in our sail up here.. Leave a hell of a mess..
Never ever go on someone else's boat.... Thats like seeing a Harley parked and u get on it and take a selfie... NO NO NO.. Branches were avail near ya... Be safe and respectful otherwise u will get in trouble and we dont want ya dealing with that k... Beautiful places ur going cant wait to see more that u share...🐻
Your filter isn't looking to bad, did you maintain your batteries is more the question !You were sitting in harbour long enough to have doves build a nest in your sails !
Supposedly Lion fish is pretty good eating, I guess its a lot like cod. Not sure how you deal with the poison stickers if you can just cut them off or what. Good way to get some free dinners.
I agree that calling it a green sliver is much more accurate than calling it a flash. In the footage at the end here you can see the upper boundary of the sun has a distinct green tinge to it. This is because the atmosphere has a slightly prismatic effect to it, and when the sun is low to the horizon it's things like the green "flash", and a reddish sun at sunset, or sunrise that result. On some clear evenings right around sunset, or shortly after, you might be able to pick up a subtle green tinge to the sky a little above the horizon. that green tinge comes from the ozone layer protecting us from harmful ultraviolet light from the sun. If you can bet way out in the middle of nowhere you might see the green "flash" as a blue one, (which is how it's supposed to look,). the reason for this is because all the pollution we put in the air filters out the blue colors leaving the green ones to get through, but although it's rare if you can really get away the blue "flash" can be seen. Out on the water would be the best place to see all this, so enjoy. Fair winds.
Haven't seen all the video yet. I saw the title and had to look for my pictures. I was with the Texas Army National Guard back in the early 90s. We help build the Coast Guard headquarters there back around 94. 386th Eng Bat. Alpha Company. Had a blast. I met a Major with the Air Guard and got to stay in her room at the Jack tar Village (now royal st kitts) for free for a few nights. Partied with a Colonial and a couple of Generals. I hope to go back one day before I'm too hold. Here's a link to my google photos (only 2, the others are private lol) goo.gl/photos/muKxjf9LUu1ZfDSZ6. Oh and great videos, love watching them.

It seems quite likely that your fuel tank(s) have become contaminated probably due to taking on poor quality fuel somewhere along the way. Water, often through condensation or leaking fuel storage tanks or 5 gallon drums, is the commonest contaminant but solids of some description will get in there somewhere / somehow. Suggest you investigate fuel tank to see if it has a drainage bung. I'm not sure with a boat but it may draw fuel from the bottom via a fuel stop cock [which you turn off when changing fuel filters to reduce the mess and back on when finished!] or it has a top mounted pick up tube which reaches down to near the bottom of the tank. NB some stop cocks have a filter in the middle of the tap, some fuel outlets have an inverted coarse filter mounted above the fuel exit whilst some top mounted fuel pipes will have a filter attached to the end of the pipe in the tank. Check all the possibilities out whilst the tank is empty! Whatever is available drain the tank as low as possible - ideally totally empty. If not siphon or pump fuel + contamination out and dispose of contents safely and correctly - remember oil floats on water so if you put some of the contents in a clear plastic bottle or tall glass and let it stand the water will settle out at the bottom. When refuelling from any supply I strongly recommend that you use a funnel that both dewaters and cleans your fuel as you fill the tanks from whatever source. Amazon sells them with differing flow rates per funnel - they work brilliantly with any liquid fuel such as diesel, petrol etc. One last point much of the diesel fuel in use today has had ethanol added to it (to reduce engine omissions) and as a result a a micro-organism will grow in the fuel and produce a slime that blocks fuel filters. Suggestion use as fresh fuel as possible, or use a fuel treatment. Fill tank to the absolute brim (to exclude air as far as possible) if fuel is not going to be used for some months and keep plenty of quality fuel filters to hand!
Rest assured that birds have a very poor sense of smell. The rumor that touching a nest will leave scent and scare the parents away was made up to prevent curious kids from messing with nests.
Birds will still tend to their eggs and babies if you touch them. That is just an old wives tail to keep kids from messing with them. Although they prob won't follow the nest to a new location. Truthfully, they will just build a new nest and lay more eggs.
Nope; that particular birds does not incubate the egg if you mess with its original nest or even help with placing cottons. I experienced 2 years in a row, now I do not touch nor help.
I guess someone forgot to tell all the birds this rule. Either way, the nest had to be removed and they will lay another clutch of eggs. It's not as if these were the last breeding pair of a species. Also, why would you try to help wild birds build a nest? They know what they are doing.
Get yourself a copy of Nigel Caldar's book on Marine Diesel Engines. covers all the basics and some not so basic stuff in a very simple way. Easy to read and LOTS of great pictures.
+Erich Brann Got it on board! It's a great book. However, I've found that there's nothing beats a google search! The Calder book provides a good understanding of the system as a whole, but obviously it can't offer information on a specific model of engine and it's quirks.
I agree never put something on someone else's boat except maybe a case of beer or wine. but if you do put something on someone else's boat DON'T VIDEO YOURSELF DOING IT!!!
you have viewers that enjoy your channel, and enjoy going on cruise ships. we're not parasites, sorry our presence in such a nusiance to "sailors". didn't realize you where entitled to the air and dirt. won't let it happen again. i ain't mad, it's kind of a common theme on these blogs, hate people on cruise ships. i bet the locals that provide for their families with land lubbers $$ hate them too right? ok rant over back to the show haha
Loving the videos.
Almost took an eye out with a pair of scisors, left pigeon eggs to an unsuspecting neighbour, looked right in to the barrel of a gun to check if it's loaded!

LOL awesome vid guys, ya'll take care.
13:13ish I actually Laughed Out Loud with your "they're contained, thankfully"!!! :'D
The Green Flash ! Nice Shot !
Fuzzy growth on the anchor rode maybe, but a bird making a nest in your sail?! You guys must have really enjoyed your stay in St. Martin! ;) Keep it up you two, great video!
very cool footage of the eal eating the lion fish
Another nice video. You guys do well together. Safe sails.

Learned something new today: The green flash. Never heard of it!
Great video! Thanks for the update!
I think one of you must have been wearing Dunlop trainers...! Always love to see your updates appear in my inbox!
I am a diesel mech by trade and think I have the same Yanmar on Adventurous. 3GM30. I use the priming bulb the same way. Many boaters don't know that trick or how to change a filter.

hope you had a good time in my home town St. Kitts :) !!!!

Loved this episode!
Great positive attitudes
great vid guys ,I'm jealous ah well maybe one of these days,paul
When he said "It's time to say goodbye to the bird" and she said...sorry PETA...and started walking up there with a spatula and a plate....I said noooooooooooo she's not going to eat that bird..or the eggs...Thank goodness I soon learned thereafter it was just an extraction!!
Great video. please more explianation on how you sail the boat, for us landlubber. thanks keep them coming. Si
Green Flash... Can only be seen or most likely seen Nov - Mar? In the Caribe... That's what I read or was told... Looking good guys! Oh, and the eels can eat them without becoming sick?
Thanks for a great video. I grew up in St Kitts, and have not been there for about 5 years. You brought back some nice memories.Where are you both off to next?
When I saw the plate and the skimmer, I tough you you would have dove omelets!
thank u for inspiration hudson fl
Not sure i saw the green flash, although i am not exactly sure what a green flash is! :- )Great video!
Love the videos guys. So what are you guys doing to fund the sailing lifestyle?
ive always wanted a flare gun, yall were sailing in pretty rough conditions i would be scared good job on the deisel filters
Wait. What? You put the nest on someone else boat? Terrible idea. Just imagine how much bird shit they are going to have on their boat....

Nice work with the fuel filter change out. Was priming the filter very difficult? Great videos

I believe in the green flash. Saw it in Maui a few years back.
I can't believe you passed up on fresh dove eggs for breakfast.
Yeah, there was a green flash! look to the slight left just as the sun was dropping out of view.
Been cutting my own hair for 15 years with a pair of Wahl clippers.
Save 15 bucks a month or so and it look as good as if someone else did it.
We get bats in our sail up here.. Leave a hell of a mess..
The boat "ROCK IT" is U2 Bono's boat.
How many of those ancient flares actually worked?
Never ever go on someone else's boat....
Thats like seeing a Harley parked and u get on it and take a selfie... NO NO NO..
Branches were avail near ya... Be safe and respectful otherwise u will get in trouble and we dont want ya dealing with that k...
Beautiful places ur going cant wait to see more that u share...🐻

Supposedly Lion fish is pretty good eating, I guess its a lot like cod. Not sure how you deal with the poison stickers if you can just cut them off or what. Good way to get some free dinners.
@5:50 Firing expired flares, within sight of land and other boats, and INTO the wind. Pretty disrespectful/unsafe guys...

Fair winds.
You make a cut right behind the sine to cut the nervise system them wait for them to stop flopping.
I was able to get a photo of the Green Flash a couple of years ago in Destin FL. If I can figure out how to post a copy here I will
The green flash is on SV Delos
I don't know if the flash was blue and black or white and gold... :D
Nice
Haven't seen all the video yet. I saw the title and had to look for my pictures. I was with the Texas Army National Guard back in the early 90s. We help build the Coast Guard headquarters there back around 94. 386th Eng Bat. Alpha Company. Had a blast.

I think most cameras wouldn't pick up green rim.
Could u show some diving or fishing video
Yes there is a green flash
Lion fish are SO MUCH better eating than Bonita!!! White meat vs. overly BLOODY red meat....no contest!
Cheers!
Why not just dump your trash on the neighbours boat as well?, I'm joking great video.
Firearm safety 101 lesson 1 (even if it's just a flare gun): Don't point the barrel at your face, even if you know it's empty.
I didn't see. To many Sun Downer's I'd say. Ha
I get birds making nests inside my boom allot.
Rest assured that birds have a very poor sense of smell. The rumor that touching a nest will leave scent and scare the parents away was made up to prevent curious kids from messing with nests.
Yeah. she is correct. Even if u touch the eggs, she will not nest there again. Also, when u change her nest site, she will not incubate those eggs..
false.

Very true nothing beats a model specific Google how to video.
Hope those people that you put the nest on there boat don't watch this video. lol
I agree never put something on someone else's boat except maybe a case of beer or wine. but if you do put something on someone else's boat DON'T VIDEO YOURSELF DOING IT!!!
I was thinking about the green flash and never seen it and thought it was made up until I read this...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_flash
i live in st.kitts
you have viewers that enjoy your channel, and enjoy going on cruise ships. we're not parasites, sorry our presence in such a nusiance to "sailors". didn't realize you where entitled to the air and dirt. won't let it happen again. i ain't mad, it's kind of a common theme on these blogs, hate people on cruise ships. i bet the locals that provide for their families with land lubbers $$ hate them too right? ok rant over back to the show haha
