Shes such a pretty boat cutting though the water. Or at rest. Wish I could afford her. What an amazing boat. Shes graceful and poised. A great combination. You should be proud to sail on a boat of that caliber.
I thoroughly enjoyed your efforts looking astern from the bow pulpit. Watching Cloudy glide through the water is beautiful. That engine compartment is designed nicely so you can access what needs to be.
John, thanks for the comment. Fully agreed on the engine room. It was a big buying point for me. If you like the views from the bow, try watching the Antigua to Monserat, Dec'18. That was pretty dramatic sailing. And the video Bermuda to Antigua Dec'18 too.
once again it was nice to travel with you, great pictures, beautiful impressions, wonderful beaches, a music that wonderfully underlines these trips and always a lot of maintainance with clean work. I could learn a lot from that ...
I think I've already said it but you're braver than me going between those two rocks... bow thruster at the ready! Great boat maintenance, I think your channel is designed to make the rest of us feel guilty! Marina seemed expensive to me but worth it for the boat TLC. Enjoyable videos with plenty of boat bits, and, of course, sailing! Now, back to earth for me and on with a roof project, in between the showers and snow....
It looks really quite nice there. Maybe the lack of crowds does that. I bet it fills up in Northern Hemisphere Summer. I really like to see the work you do on the boat. Best boat in the marina for sure :)
Did current cut once, never again. Engines redlined to make a knot or two in transit. Always stopped at Port Royal. A lovely anchorage! Do not take the entrance to the right, The smaller marked entrance to the left is the one you want. A great stop after coming down from the Abacoes.
Hi nice and relaxing way to start a Saturday here in Vienna by watching this beautifull video. There is nothing better than this when life here a bit stressfull when you hear daily that there are more and more people being afected with Convid19 around yourself. Well I hope to see more of you guys and hope things get better. Take care and till the next vid 😛😜🤪😘
With so many quality anchorages, beaches and resorts I can see why everyone loves the Bahamas. How do you leave?! Loved that library as well. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Ousted - ha!
Brad, I'm not sure if its common practice but its absolutely a "best practice". I do it once a year now. We previously had issues with reduced flow rate in both engines and particularly the generator that has quite thin cooling tubes around the generator coil. On this occasion, the flow through the raw water system doubled from beginning to end of the cleaning cycle. And, it has to be said that circulating the Rydlime like this is the only effective way. Just flushing it through the system once really does nothing.
And just to add, when I put the impeller back in after the flushing, it looks like brand new inside - the brass looks like its been polished! Same inside the charge-air-cooler for the turbo on the volvo. its really quite remarkable
Love you two. Keep Oana happy on the boat, Glenn, or you'll be swimming behind the dinghy! (You didn't take Oana to her honeymoon?! Run for the hills, or do something about it! :)
Serban Oprescu it’s true. We didn’t honey moon. Unless you count the week after our wedding when we took a bus tour with my family around Transylvania!
Glenn, I´ve been meaning to ask a question of you. Is there a reason you wrap your stay sheets around the sail? Is it to add protection from the genny sheets when tacking or something else? Just curious. Thanks for your great vid.
Phillip Corey no reason really other than to neatly stow them. We dont often use the staysail - only in winds consistently above 25-30kts. Basically less rope on the deck.
Curious about how you wander around these posh resorts. Pay a resort fee or 2 drink minimum? Or just stroll until you get unceremoniously ejected? Great vids. Keep it up.
Well, we just walk in! Most of the time. And generally we have a coffee of a drink. But sometimes none. Dont think we have ever been unceremoniously thrown out. If we did, we will be sure to get it on video :)
steenkigerrider I would certainly like to know too. We though this would be high season. But clearly it’s not. They seem to live for Christmas holidays and other holidays when US are on school break. Otherwise occupancy always seems low. And I guess that why there room rates always seem very high.
Excellent vid ya'll, I don't know if I like how the oil filter change is set up on that Volvo, I'm so used to filling my filter with oil first, makes it easier on the engine during start up.
Thomas Bonde no, to be fair, $300 was for 2 nights. But still a lot for what we got. Unfortunately USA prices are the going rate in Bahamas. We are in Jamaica now in a beautiful marina for below $100 a night. And if our boat was
Indeed true. On the other hand I'm not so sure they would have been so welcoming for us to visit the resort if we hadnt moved. And they were quite polite about it. If they'd been rude (like we so often had in the Med), I would not have moved!
I love your channel. It’s like watching James Bond, after he got the girl and sailed off into the sunset.
Hmm James Bond eh? I like that!!

Thank you load's of entertaining content on your channel I'm a regular visitor... Please keep them coming!
BigO BigO will do ... every Friday :)
SCB, Incredible. Thank you!!!
You are welcome

@@SailCloudyBay Those are two of your best sailing episodes! I had to watch the Bermuda to Antigua over again ..sailing shots just amazing
Another great video..thoroughly enjoy watching your adventures. Outstanding.👍⛵
Glad you enjoyed it
You're a lucky man having your partner loving the sea and boat life as much as you.
Georges Bonello DuPuis yep, I certainly am. Thanks George.

I believe that was a nurse shark .great video guys
Lemon shark.

Wonderful! Thank you!
One of your best videos yet.
Ray Russell really? Thanks Ray :)
Nice work. Never seen anyone flush the engine and Generator in that way quite interesting
You might like to read the reply I just sent to Brad Busch. Thanks for the comment.
You two must be the happiest couple out there on the oceans. That boat is at least something we Swedes can be proud of.
Fredrik Wallinder oh, no. Swedes have ALOT to be proud of. And yes, your yacht building industry is certainly one of them.
Another BEAUTIFUL video!!
William Miller thanks William
Очень красивые места, спасибо, что делитесь впечатлениями.
Добро пожаловать. Спасибо за комментарий
Thanks mate ... loved you’re video.
Love your videos, thank you......;-)
Current cut looks intimidating for sure. Sounded like someone has started getting a cold.
Very few trees in Hatchet Harbor. Very blue all around, blue water blue sky.
With so many quality anchorages, beaches and resorts I can see why everyone loves the Bahamas. How do you leave?! Loved that library as well. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Ousted - ha!
dale charles yea ... we’re kinda having Bahamas withdrawal depression right now!
Good job guys that reverse water cleaning in your engines is that common because that’s the first time I have seen it done thanks for sharing Cheers

Love Eleuthera! We go as often as we can. Short flight from FLL.
As usual another great video but I have it on good authority that water is extremely WET!!!
Great video! Do you guys still sail in 2024?

@@SailCloudyBay Makes sense. Same here...I rarely use my stay, so perhaps I´ll try your technique. Thanks for quenching my curiosity.

Would be interesting to know what the business model of these resorts is with no guests besides you two. :)

She allowed you to have a beer. I'm thinking your short leash is bedazzled with sequins...
The Bad Seal I don’t have a short leash. It was just a joke!
I like your watch Glen, what kind is it?
Jake Smith it’s actually just a cheapie waterproof watch from Decathalon.
Hi guys 😁
300 dollars??? To stay one night in the marina?

I don't believe these resorts have much legal basis to prohibit you from anchoring.

@@SailCloudyBay ".....I would not have moved!" Oh dear, you sound a bit recalcitrant like me in these situations. :)
Lemon shark, not a Baskin shark.
