    I have always planned on circumnavigating the American continents and when I saw the Patagonia location in one of your titles that came up in the RUclips feed, I had to watch. You have NO PROBLEMO finding beautiful subject matter to record in Patagonia! I’ve watched a few of your’s and then I came to this one! Your opening scene is absolutely awesome! The beautiful drone footage of the fjord with glass smooth water making a J-46 look rather small all of a sudden! I can only imagine how long the editing process is but when you find a musical score to match this one, you have got a gold mine! And the rest of this vlog is equally as good! The dolphins in the fjord are amazing to watch. If you have a hydrophone speaker you could drop in the water and play music on, it would be interesting to watch to see if the dolphins respond to it. It might make a difference as to what type of music you play for a favorable response. I’m sure you can find the right stuff! You might want to consider turning off your depth finder when dolphins show up.

    Incredible natural beauty. Great storytelling, montage. And the day a dingy became an ice breaker. As to water freezing over, it needs to cool down significantly below freezing point, except when ice crystals - think "seeds" - are already in the water. As the water here is full of seeds, -2C or 28.4F is enough to freeze it over

    My days sailing among the glaciers in Prince William Sound, Alaska taught me to avoid glacier ice for use in beverages. The ice is filled with glacier flour (ground rock), which will make any cocktail far too gritty to enjoy! Moreover, the “bergie bits” can slice up the gelcoat in a hurry! Sure do love your channel!

    Beware of raw water from springs. Although there are no farms, there are wild animals, and the soil and plants also have bacteria. In survival courses they teach you that the water that touched the ground should be considered contaminated unless there is previous experience with that particular spring. In general, the springs in Patagonia are safe, many even have installations made by the fishermen with funnels and hoses to fill the water tank of their boats, however, while you navigate in uninhabited areas, the recommendation is to chlorinate the water before drinking it. Every time I fill the boat's water tank from those springs, I add a small amount of chlorine to the water to make sure it's drinkable.

      I know different people have different risk tolerances, but I've spent much of my life in the backcountry and I've long risked it if close to the source and no cattle in the area, never has a problem yet. Yes, there's the off chance a wild animal could have died upstream, but so long as there is no agricultural or cattle in the area, the risk really is quite low.

      In some places such as this one, you can swing, but bottom holding isn't always reliable and a few strong trees can help you sleep a little more sound at night.
      Also, without swinging, we prevent the likelyhood of drifting into a rock, or in this case, iceberg. Lets scraping of the chain on the bottom or wrapping the anchor around lots of kelp.. Thanks for the question!
