Hi James, I've been following you for a while and I see that it is not easy at all maneuvering a boat let alone a dighhy. Thank you very much for you hard work and keep sailing. LOVE
Hi or aloha from Scotland! Love the vids, I'm planning to get a boat and retire early at 60 in 8 years having sold my house. You're an inspiration, post more and any tips/advice? I'm a total novice but I feel a "callng" never boat before bit I will learn I'm sure and I'll love it
Met you briefly at the marina cafe in wilmington a few weeks back. been watching your channel for a long time even before you bought tritea. wish I'd had longer to talk to you. My columbia 43 is coming along nicely. Hope to see you out there in the future. Bubblehead steve and my boat the "Jeannie Ann".
Im heavily into radio and telecommunications, i know almost nothing about sailing, but i hope one day i can join you on the water and start living for real, inspiring ❤
Another great video. Always look forward to seeing the next one and this one I particularly enjoyed. The editing and music are what make them so watchable.
Very beautiful. With each episode inside this bay, it becomes a bit clearer how impressive the mountain range behind you must be. It really must be something to see it in person and especially when anchored in a spot like this one here. You really are living the dream. I'm sure there might be lonely moments but that seems a small price to pay for such freedom, beauty and adventure.
My 61 year old body aches watching you manhandle the outboard. We don’t have Davits or anything, so I’m lucky mine is a 2 hp Honda. Some day I’ll rig something up, but for now I can still show it who’s boss
Nice! Beautiful.. thanks for sharing! That was very relaxing and soothing to watch... ofc we don't see the hardship you put all in each day but otherwise you wouldn't be there where you are right now ^^ 15:30 is something you can apply on all things in life...
Hey man. Going to start samling the big oceans this summer. If we are close by some time we would love to hang out and eat or something. Love your channel!
Crazy to think how those sandbars behave, we had one like that in a tributary of the Chesapeake bay in Virginia, could pull that old tartan right up to it and just hang out. I too was out sailing the pacific this Halloween, fair winds and following seas boss!
So this October so where in real time are you? Bought both books finished the first one and now reading second one - the pictures in the 1st are awesome - hope you continue to put out books I feel like I am right there - enjoy your writing style - keep up the great sailing -
I am in Honolulu doing some big boat projects and getting the boat ready for the South Pacific, thanks for picking up the books and I glad to here you enjoy them! Many more to come as the years go on 👍🏻
Such an unusual anchorage for sure. Glad you didn’t have any issues with the “unknown/unseen” reefs! What if anything do you hear from the mainland? Not being nosy, I just care sir!
@@SailorJames Oh, I had no idea that she had done that! So sorry for that, having been there and done that many years ago after a 16 years and two great kids! Not to fear, there are so many great women in this world looking for someone special like yourself!
I bought my boat for $2400 and refit it over 4 years (rough estimate $35k) but I did a lot of expensive upgrades because I plan on sailing in some extreme places. Maintaining costs are minimal after a refit as so many parts are brand new and will last for years.
Have you ever heard of boats being extended? Mines only 26 feet with a fast hull, I had considered extending the rear 2-3 feet. I would like a larger boat but a 26 foot costs less. Add buoyancy at the waterline. A 28 to 29 foot would be big enough. Even considered adding my diesel turbo from my car!
If you plan on doing ocean sailing I would say this is not feasible, the modified structure of the boat would likely break up in rough seas and sunk in quick order and if you were able to strengthen it enough the costs of strengthening it would likely be more than the cost of a larger boat, not to mention the design aspects of making it a balanced boat. The lines of a hull are specific to its size as is the shape below the waterline and ballast weight
@@SailorJames It's a nice shore boat ok when the seas are calm for exploring. I have visions of yourself with your leg in shark infested waters, so I priced a 15 HP outboard up which will offer some steering. Thanks. There is all of Scotland to view. Across the channel to France where i love. Great whites have been spotted off the coast of southern England.
Excellent use of the drone to get how crazy this sand bar is! Beautiful place!!
Hi James,

The RYA have a great training school out of Largs if you're not already aware of it 👍🙂

Nice to have meet you in passing, thanks for saying hi, I hope you are enjoying those perfect SoCal waters 👍🏻

Wow 🤩 shallow. Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing
I'm so insanely jealous. You truly are living the dream.

This is the most beautiful drone footage!! Jaw droppingly gorgeous! ⛵️🤩🥸
I thought it was you @saltybutterfly Kimberly Wood filming from Africa!!! We miss you on Triteia's adventures!
Cool video James , the shore landscape is like crazy amazing , very beautiful “Keep Liven the dream “… people are ok …,,,
Awesome view and awesome video. Thanks James.
Oh what a beautiful place; I wish I could wave a magic wand and be there instead of rainy dark England today x
Nice! Beautiful.. thanks for sharing! That was very relaxing and soothing to watch... ofc we don't see the hardship you put all in each day but otherwise you wouldn't be there where you are right now ^^ 15:30 is something you can apply on all things in life...
Wow. your own perfect pool
Pretty sweet spot
So beautiful i dont think i would ever leave.Thanks for sharing James😊👍
So cool and so unique. What an anchorage and thank you for sharing it with us. Cheers, James.
Wooo!!! That looks amazing! Great clip.
Loved the drone video air2 s army out
The view is beautiful
Awesome video👍 The natural light out there looks stunning even on camera. 😎
HOLY SHIT Thats some SAVAGE video SAVAGE SCENERY
Glad your enjoying your time in Hawaii! Can’t wait to see you head towards Asia. ✌️😎
This is awesome! Really beautiful adventure you had there! And those drone shots are epic!!! Thanks for sharing!
I needed this adventure this evening, James!!!!
Hey man. Going to start samling the big oceans this summer. If we are close by some time we would love to hang out and eat or something. Love your channel!
Great Channel, No T/A just great sailing and adventures.
Beautifull James! Enjoying the great vids 😁 ! Buenos vientos from Argentina!
Really cool and strange
excellent video - I can't wait to go sailing - I love your channel - keep em coming
Crazy to think how those sandbars behave, we had one like that in a tributary of the Chesapeake bay in Virginia, could pull that old tartan right up to it and just hang out.
I too was out sailing the pacific this Halloween, fair winds and following seas boss!
Love your fine work!!!! Thank you
James such a great name… awesome journey and videos man! Jealous of the views.
I felt an ancient loneliness about the turquoise hue of the sandbar
🤙🏽🤙🏽 love the vids man
Small winch sure would save the back with the loading and unloading dingy and motor… Awesome views, thank you…
I keep my boat systems as minimal as possible, less things to break in the far flung places I am going and less draw on the batteries
@@SailorJames definitely understandable…
Hi , love the vids keep up the great work 😁
The Tide is so low the Anchor is sticking out of the water, now that's classic!
Love the videos, like always!
Looks beautiful definitely my dream to goo
You find the danforth is a decent anchor? I have a 40 Rocna for the bow and a danforth I haven't tried yet for the stern.
What cameras do you use for your voyages? Gopros? Do you use multiple cameras? Thanks the videos.
I just use a GoPro hero 9 for above water and an old hero 7 for snorkel stuff
Looks awesome
super cool
that looks like a pretty serious drop off from the sand bar....how deep is the water right off of it?
It goes from 2ft to 30ft in the length of my boat
What size and pitch prop did you end up going with and how are you liking it?
Cool I like to go slowly and not hurt myself
So this October so where in real time are you? Bought both books finished the first one and now reading second one - the pictures in the 1st are awesome - hope you continue to put out books I feel like I am right there - enjoy your writing style - keep up the great sailing -
I am in Honolulu doing some big boat projects and getting the boat ready for the South Pacific, thanks for picking up the books and I glad to here you enjoy them! Many more to come as the years go on 👍🏻
How do you keep the loops in your ears from corroding in the salt water
Same way I keep all the metal on the boat from corroding by using stainless steel
Awesome place to stop. How deep is it off your stern when anchored like that? What is the deepest when approaching there? Thanks.
Around 30ft deep
@@SailorJames That IS quite a Sharp dropoff.
Such an unusual anchorage for sure. Glad you didn’t have any issues with the “unknown/unseen” reefs! What if anything do you hear from the mainland? Not being nosy, I just care sir!
Hear from the Mainland? From Camille? The only correspondence I ever received from her was a request to sign divorce papers.
@@SailorJames Oh, I had no idea that she had done that! So sorry for that, having been there and done that many years ago after a 16 years and two great kids! Not to fear, there are so many great women in this world looking for someone special like yourself!
how large is your dinghy motor? it looks much larger and heavier than a 2.5 HP motor. you must struggle with that thing.
Hello, how much does a yacht like yours cost? How much does it cost to maintain? Sorry if I write with errors, I'm not a native speaker.
I bought my boat for $2400 and refit it over 4 years (rough estimate $35k) but I did a lot of expensive upgrades because I plan on sailing in some extreme places. Maintaining costs are minimal after a refit as so many parts are brand new and will last for years.
@@SailorJames Thanuk you very much! I also want to learn to sail a boat
Have you ever heard of boats being extended? Mines only 26 feet with a fast hull, I had considered extending the rear 2-3 feet. I would like a larger boat but a 26 foot costs less.

Thanks.
There is all of Scotland to view. Across the channel to France where i love.
Great whites have been spotted off the coast of southern England.
Stainless steel costs a lot!
I am glad i don't have to anchor my boat in 2 ft of water.. it will anchor itself as it has a 5ft 3 draft lol
Can anyone tell me out at sea do most people just flush their toilet straight into the sea on a voyage rather than store it in a tank.
Yes, anytime you are at least 3 miles from shore you can pump directly overboard and you can empty your holding tank into the sea
ARE YOU HAPPY BEING OUT THERE? Im trying to talk my wife into sailing but we have 2 kids
Is it free to anchor your boat like this??
Yes
Halloween? It says video released 3 days ago
Most vloggers videos are months out
your missing out on playing video games
