So my wife and I have spent the past month sailing our new to us boat and today She says “Jesus Christ why are there so many holes drilled in this thing? Who owned it last, Sam?”
LOL!!!
Check out when he bought it lol
You and Holly are great together. I hope we see more of her in the future.
She’s a keeperrrrrrrr
She’s a sweet girl for sure but I’m more content just watching Sam work on his boat then watching him Play with his girlfriend. He’s a player anyway. He’s got girls all over the world :-)
@@Eric_In_SF Pretty sure there is 'one in every port'.
Nice video sorry to see Holly had to go back to Scotland. Hope to see her back on your boat some day.
Sam and Holly Holmes … I like the sound of that
That museum looked amazing.
I found your RUclips channel, last night, and I’m having a hard time putting down my iPad. Your adventures are absolutely awesome. Your videos are better than any channel, so I hope that you will continue on with your journey, and supply your fans with ongoing delight. I’ve subscribed and will give, monthly; to your PayPal. 👍
Sam is a true adventurer, total binge worthy watching
Watch Sam's Solo sailing Los Angeles to Hawaii on 23ft boat, about 40 minutes, going back a couple summers!
@@daneulekowski929 I totally agree, Dane.
@@michaelishoj1111 That’s next on the list, Michael. I just finished Sam’s two interviews with Sven, the sailing legend.
@@TheLifeTerm - if you subscribe to the Sven Yrvind RUclips channel, you can follow the construction of his new 6 meter SUV sailboat - each day, Sven sends out a short video showing his progress on his boat. When Sam crossed the Atlantic last year, he met up with Sven Yrvind, I believe @Pico Island in Portugal.
Take care...
"...worst case we just sink the boat" 😂 legend
Great video of a tough passage. Small amount of miles but hard fought for sure. Glad you made it to safe harbour. Couldn't imagine 40 to 50 out there. Very nice traditional fishing boat.. That slow turning diesel would put me to sleep. I'm always amazed at the hospitality of other mariners.
What I like about this channel - it shows how much cruising sailing you can do with a modest amount of money if you are practical and sensible and likable.
That was a “no bullshit” wild night. Good sailing, well done!
I really admire your ability sail all over the world. I love the ocean and sailboats. but I don't think I could do this. Maybe if I was thirty years younger. great episode. thank you
I agree it looks amazing if I was 30 years younger I might try this but now I'm starting to like home comforts a bit too much
Glad you’re safe and sound. Wow! I was nervous. Thank you
I wonder how many of us are thinking " turn the boat toward Scotland " ...
You’re a huge inspiration. Keep it up man. If not for your videos I doubt I’d be sleeping on a sailboat right now 😁
A tough sail Sam, thanks for sharing your experiences including any lessons learned.
I've watched quite a few different travel type channels, but I keep coming back to Sam's. Laid back, always optimistic, low-key humor, it's pretty much what I'd want in a captain. Maybe a few more drunken fistfights, but other than that, it's on point, lol.
You and i sir, will be the greatest crew, love your comment. lol
Sam, the Error code 03 on your diesel heater is a bad glow plug. They are consumables so you need a couple on hand.
I have to say thanks for filming during those conditions. I love those passages with moments where you think "should I continue?". About your diesel leak, that's a Yanmar secondary fuel filter. The "vent screw" is leaking. There are lots of people having the same problem. I just bought the entire housing and they have changed the design on the new one (has groves along the sides of the female threads to provide the venting). So it's clear that Yanmar realizes they have a design flaw. Still, I love my 2gm20f.
I'm lucky i got a Volvo penta.. but they also break lol
I liked that the fuel was leaking "on the ground".
great vid as always, this one looked really scary to me, just seemed like the perfect combo of being a bit tired towards the end there, and some unpredictable and increasing wind, paired with very rough seas, with cold water and wind. i know many in Norway would say that's just a regular day in the North Sea, but this was one of the first videos of yours I ever felt a little uncomfortable about the conditions, well maybe i've felt it in other vids of yours but those were more related to my inexperience rather than something you were actually going thru. but you seem to portray such an even temperament it's hard to tell what the conditions are like sometimes because you seem to take it all in stride really really well. which seems to be an intangible part of sailing, or maybe it is the most tangible, gotta go with the flow, and also push your limits at the same time you have some limits for safety. thanks for the inspiration Sam
normal day at the office :D
... Sams just been thru a famously rough patch of water off the Norwegian coast, can be very bumpy there :)
Good to hear from you Sam. As always!
Another excellent video! Thoroughly enjoy your adventure spirit! And, an inspiration!
Fair winds!!!
When all is said and done, this is an excellent little boat, isn't it? Continued success. 🇮🇪🍺💚☘✝️
Sam, you might want to get yourself a ferrule crimper. Makes those kinds of electrical connections so much more reliable. Great video as always.
God Bless you buddy. Love watching your adventures. I never sailed in my life but watching your adventures makes me wanna try it one day. Stay safe and keep on sailing.
I love coming to this channel for another episode of repair tutorial!
Congrats you and the boat performed great! 50 knots!!
Thank you Sam for the wonderful videos and for being a huge inspiration for me dealing with UC. Please keep them coming
That was a little scary, but you were smart putting a second reef. Beautiful scenery on your adventure.
Heroic sail! The Norse God's would be proud of you.
Sam, just a reminder of your dental appointment back in the states tomorrow. Point the boat West and you should make it on time.
last shot we see of Holly, she is on the floor holding her mouth, injured, next shot "well holly went back to scotland... guess we are single handing. " what a mensch Sam 😂
OMG I'd be terrified of that North Sea passage - you are amazing Sam! Can't wait for the next installment!
Action packed adventure, Lot's of variety. Thanks,
Go Sam! Incredible seamanship, inspiring!
Great video my friend. Happy new year. God Bless.
Loved this video. You are very courageous. I was hoping you would make it. You always have a lovely smile on your face despite the treacherous 30+ knots winds of the North Sea
Great you're not alone on the high seas 👌✌️👍
Good Job in heavy weather. Holly and you work well together.
I really enjoy your channel and now you’re close to “our” waters. Welcome Sam! We live a few miles south of Gothenburg😉
great video showing us what you see and navigating around the southern tip of Norway. Stay safe!
The bleed nuts on those engines are screwed into a soft alloy. I had the same engine and once mine started weeping like yours is no amount of adjusting and washers would fix it. Cheapest permanent fix is helicoil the thread the screw goes into and good as new for the price of $10 part.
Your an inspiration kid ,,, I live vicariously thru u
beautiful weather for jan
I use to work with that underwater gear. It's the real deal Sam
I recently discovered you on RUclips and I love your videos. Extra fun that you are exploring Norway, since I'm a Norwegian myself living in California. I just started sailing lessons in the Channel Island Harbor in Oxnard, something I always have wanted to do. I love following your journey. Thank you! Carry on:)
I enjoyed this video and your trip through the Offshore Drilling Museum. Wish you would consider numbering your videos so I can keep up with the ones I have and have not seen more effectively. Keep them coming, I really enjoyed them. Ever think about visiting the Isle of Ionia off the west coast of Scotland, where the ancient Abby is.
Thoroughly enjoying the ride with you. Got my own vessel that i'm making ready right now - can't wait to start adventuring as well ;-) You're a great seaman, great attitude.
Sam's kind of trippy to watch after a joint.
I live just by Korshamn, i bunker up there with my boat. If you are ever in the area again, let me know and ill pop by!
19:15 a great moment of insight and learning. My favorite small boat DIY sailing captain. So enjoy your expeditions. Stay well and inspired.
Great sailing footage .. a little worried for you but know you are seasoned and a bit spicy too lol 😆
Sam, If you want to see the that motorized one man diving machine in action watch James Bond, For Your Eyes Only.
Thanks for the sail ⛵!
Thanks!
"50 knots is my max (for this body of water)", epic quote.
Dad's thumb over the lens at the ol' museum LOL
Another triumphant passage and video! I honestly don't know how you can move around your boat with those balls of steel!! I wouldn't have the courage to go below amongst those rocks. 😱
Mate, we saw some uncertainty in your eyes there for a bit! Great to see you keep your nerve and push on through. Must have had a good beer after that one!
Was in Korshavn two times this summer. Great place. Looks like you got to see some of Norways bad days on the westcoast when it comes to the wind. Kvitsøy was niceplace. Liked it there. Great episode Sam.
Awesome to see the work you put into this channel! Great content and nothing monotonous or repetitive!
Love these vids. You're an absolute legend, Sam.
Enjoy your videos. Great saling from my home town Stavanger. Stay safe!
Thanks again so much fun fun 🤩 save travels Sam
Great video with some tricky maneuvers around those rock islands. Man that was some tough seas and weather. I was so releived when you pulled into the port. The winds were crazy. Happy New Year Sam. Be safe and well.
Keep chasing the waves! Perhaps our paths will cross in FL
Great video! I have sailed a lot in these waters. Looking at the forecast as you set out, my thought was «Really? You are going to round the infamous reefs of Jæren - littered with shipwrecks through the ages - in that?»
Yep. Why leave a safe port when you know conditions are getting worse? Be careful Sam.
Thanks Sam for all the awesome content
Great video, thanks
Hell of a good episode! 👍 safe travels and good winds
Well, Sam, you got a good taste of the what the North Sea can dish out. Kudos for sticking with it. Wasn't worried about the outcome, since I knew you were already home for the holidays! Your future grandkids will love that story, after it has had a chance to age over the years.
The North Sea is no joke. The west coast of Denmark can be treacherous. Take good care. Happy you will be visiting Denmark. God rejse 🇩🇰
My favorite episode, many thanks
Great post my friend. Stay Safe. Stay Free. ⛵
"Worst case we just sink the boat" Best case, you didn't. Take care Sailor Sam.
I really enjoyed todays Video Sam. Always cool to see you sailing
Glad to see other hams out there! You should get an HF rig for your next adventure, checking in to something like the pacific seafarers net would be really exciting. 73!
+1 on the HF rig!
@@NC0Q I would chip in to get him on the air! I'm sure other hams would do the same. @hoshnasi
That was a great video, a real clencher! Thanks!
You're awesome Sam ... Hope you get too sweet and soon so you can haul out and do a few repairs I always seem to be biting my nails when I say things thanks for hanging on your boat please be careful out there that ocean is a lot better than you are and you seem like a super nice guy
Thanks
Nice Vid, way to handle things that get thrown at you. Cheers.
Wow that was hairy, Skipper! For the first time, I think I'm glad I was just watching on screen...holy moly!
Oh no, I wish I knew you were here (Stavanger) - be safe! have fun!
After watching this segment and you bouncing around in those miserable winds and waves, it brings to my mind one of my favorite sayings!! "God watches out for fools and children" !! Stay safe, my friend.
HNY Sam from Vancouver BC. Stay safe.
Thanks Sam
Great video, as per usual, Sam. Good New Years resolution to not again go back into the North Sea when winds are >15 knots! I'll drink to that!
I agree with you on sailing at 15 knots , max. Leave the 40-50 knot North Sea adventures to Erik (NBJS).
@@patricklindsay1688 Good call, Patrick. I saw one of Erik's videos where he threw himself into an angry North Sea ... quite an adventurer, that guy!
@@masterblaster2626, no kidding. The man has balls of steel (stainless, of course, hehe.)
Shout out La Mesa, CA! My home town
Sam Holmes sailing and NBJS with Erik have gotten shout outs by Matt Rutherford ( Red Dot). That's a lot of respect especially when he just won't watch the others. Both these channels are unique compared to others. One more that I just seem to like because of the family atmosphere is Sailing Zatara. That's just me though.
One of a kind. Unique, in other words. But his kind are sailors, so in another sense he's one of a kind. However, not many of them would do the single-handed passages my vicarious boy Sam does. Sail on brother from another mother.
Look at Sam, fixing a fuel leak in his white sweatshirt!
Thank you for your video.
Obviously Sam is not superstitious, I've always been told never to whistle on a boat. Old sailors' tale...
Awesome 😎
Crikey you had me getting really anxious watching this episode! You never seemed phased when the boat was really leaned over and you were getting banged about. Not being a sailor, how far can these lean over before capsizing and what stops it doing that when you are on autopilot? It also looked really cold!
The keel is usually heavier than the boat, and goes quite far into the water usually- when sailing you make sure the boat is never overpowered by the sails so you can safely stay upright!
That's why he "reefed" the mainsail right away (made it smaller), and then later took it down and went with just the foresail. Less sail, less chance of bad things happening.
@@JdoubleU1222 absolutely, and it’s much more comfy going slower sometimes and finding the sweet spot speed wise for the conditions
Most heavier boats will get knocked down, not capsized and can recover from pretty much a roll. Depending on the ballast ratio. Most cruiser types have a ballast of about 35 to 45 percent. That, together with the depth of the keel and shape of the hull helps it recover. That said in heavy conditions it's imperative to make the boat as water tight as possible. Also cockpit size and draining ability are a huge factor for safe sailing and knockdown recovery. Hope this helps.
@@magdakaniewski ^^^^ really well said, and for peace of OPs mind, THE most dangerous thing on a boat is fire, rather than rolling/capsizing etc - so it says a lot about how well they are designed!
La belle vie 🤩⛵👍
Wow that was some heavy sailing weather that makes me nervous from behind my RUclips 😆. Florida must veel like a hot cup of chocolate right now. Good moment to warm up a bit over there.
We have those same mule cups
My friend, what are you doing up here in January when you could be like around the Seychelles?? If you make a stop in Denmark, please let me know, I will give a cup of coffee.
Brilliant
I worked with a chief engineer from Stavanger.
North sea not above 15kn says it all. Thanks for being real and humble!
Great video Sam. Stay safe.
No drama, just authentic, humble sailing. 🙏
