Who wants to Join Us on a Cruise to the Bahamas! E216

- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- A new boating schedule causes us to lose a few crew members, so we are opening it up to our viewers. We will be in the Abacos, Berrys, Nassau and Bimini starting around May 20th. Check our schedule, posted on RUclips, Facebook and Patreon for details.
Meanwhile, we tackle a few maintenance items and begin prepping for the cruise.
I admire how calm y'all are in a crisis...like misplacing passports and losing phone and wallet. Most people would be so stressed they could not function. You guys take everything in stride and keep on rolling. Of course, maybe the alcohol helps a little, but your nature is so enviable. Y'all have fun no matter what comes your way, repair jobs and all. Cheers!
Yes, it must be the alcohol! 😁
I would put a towel down on the kitchen counter. Some nasty stuff can accumulate in dark wet places. also, while you have that thing open getting it unstuck, I would shoot a small amount of silicone in there. not WD4, silicone.
I caught that Captain swapped the pump impeller and housing as well. But the problem is the motor. The motor has a spot where it stops and can’t restart itself. It might be a capacitor that is failing. Or it could be a bad spot on a coil. When the motor can’t start itself moving in either of those two cases, the electrons used to power it will convert to heat. This could be really bad on a boat and cause a fire. It is an expensive pump, but a fire would be a disaster and swapping out a pump is relatively inexpensive for the piece of mind.
The motor always starts right up. t is only when we leave the boat for months at a time that it has an issue. We never leave the boat with the Air Conditioning pump on.
Lynn, love that dress your wearing in the video.. CHEERS!!!!!!!!!
😎😊
Ed suffering from CRS........"can't remember shit" 😅😅😂
I got that too😅
That would be one hell of a cruise!
"We wrote our plans in the sand at low tide." I love it! Fair winds and smooth seas....
Cheers!
Love your vids. You make it very understandable that it isn't all fun and games cruising around. I admire your tech/mech abilities! Great to be able to keep it underway Capt!
Thanks! We try to show the reality of boating.
So happy your notification popped up this evening. I’ve missed you guys & all your exciting adventures. Can’t wait to follow you & your new crew on another beautiful trip to the Bahamas this summer. Roger out…….
Thanks for joining us on the adventure!
you guys are fun, someday maybe can say hello in person
Ed and Lynn YUN'S ARE TRULY A INSPIRATION TO ME AND I AM SURE OTHERS! When something goes wrong yun's just take care of it and keep on rolling! HOPE THAT YUN'S HAVE A GREAT SEASON AND I WILL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE VIDEOS! ( Which I can TRULY say have improved) Be safe !
Love that glass Lynn.
What whirlwind adventure for sure. Good to hear you got your stuff back minus some cash.
Ed and Lyn,
It's so good to see you both out and about.
Your travels are a joy to this old guy here in
Ferndale, WA.
Just seeing you cruisin', and the sound of the wind and the waves, is relaxing.
it's only just begun!
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Our pleasure!
A bit of a chaotic start FOR THIS but all will sort out. aND I can't believe not only a sneaky little Roger Out near the beginning, but the FINISH of the video was a RIGHT PROPPER DUAL ROGER OUT! Sweeeet!
I had to replay the grand finale Roger Out like 5 times it was so good!
Glad you stayed to the end!
The Boston whaler look’s awesome!!
Thanks. Lyn did a great job!
LOL anyone with a boat has those weeks!!!! I'm stuck at the dock... might be fun to come crew for you for a few days lol
Enjoyed meeting and hanging out with you guys. The Triton is great and the Manhattan's were delicious. Thanks and hope to meet up again sometime.
Our pleasure!
What a roller coaster ride. Sailing is supposed to be relaxing y'all. Hope you can find crew and have a great trip. Wish I were able but maybe someday.
happy days you are back.👍👍
Safe travels
We would have loved to have been your crew for a couple of weeks! We are planning on buying our boat soon and really want to spend some time on other boats to fine tune our wants vs needs in the but we finally settle into. Thanks for all of your great videos and hope we bump into guys soon!
Will be in Titusville on May 11th headed north. Hope to see you! M/Y Seaclusion, Hatteras Sportdeck
We'll be here!
The Admiral and I were almost tempted to take you up on that offer! Perhaps we run into you when you return to the States. We’re planning on heading to east coast in mid June.
I'm sure you'll have plenty of takers for the Bahamas trip.
That AC cooling pump will continue to seize. Unless you can lube the bearings. Which are inside the sealed motor casing.
Hey guys, good to see a new video, I live right in cocoa hopefully I'll run into you sometime, would love to meet you you.
Great job on the fabric everything lines up perfectly professional job👍👍👍👍
Lyn nailed it!
Getting in mid 80s here in st Augustine municipal marina, 90s next week ......
Consider swapping out that air con ac pump. It might get hot when it seizes and not trip the breaker.
It is fun to see you get back at it thanks for the content.
He replaced the pump section with a new one, and keeping the old for a spare. The motor is fine.
Ok love the glass Lynn but the ocd in me is wondering how one would clean it lol… safe travels guys, looking forward to the videos!
Love your videos and out look on life
Cascading errors is a signal to just stop and start over. Good call.
We agree!
In all seriousness I would've lost my shit if I had lost my phone. Like you I have everything on and with it to anything but I'm glad it work out for you could've been so much worst.
With all that happening stay home don’t go anywhere for a month I’m in Merritt Island not too far away
Have a great and safe trip! I close on my Hatt in June. Hope to link up with you at some point.
Congratulations!
Nice work on the Whaler ssats.
Manhattans are my favorite!
Cheers!
African grey parrot is fantastic I have one !
She thinks she is a pirate!
I wanna go to Key West again
I do so enjoy your videos they are so full of fun and bring back memories of Monty Python as you go though life - great fun to watch and you cope so well with every encounter - Thanks for your fun -and our delight
Thanks for joining us!
Love Monty Python!
cheers from capt flint - be safe on the high sea's and in port -
Cheers!
Sent you an IG message about your Bahamas cruise. What an awesome opportunity. Especially because I want to learn the operation as I’m looking for a Trawler and have been looking but would be a huge upgrade from my dual console Key West.

Never realized you were on Bar Rescue should have known you would be first in line for a drink
We had a great time. Jon Taffer is a fan of our channel and invited us to visit a taping.
Wish I could
If you’re ever in Titusville and need a hand with something feel free to reach out I’m always happy to help and or learn
Hi guys. Zoe and Gary are moving onto our 43 silverton for the summer, than closing on our villa in Punta Cana. Heck is out and see if you would like us to join you. We have a little channel we have been building, but have gotten a little side tracked. Love to get back and hit a home run with good peeps.
Hi. Thanks for reaching out. We just posted our schedule on Facebook and Patreon. As you can imagine, we have received quite a few requests to join us in the Bahamas. We wish we could take everyone! Our viewers know just about everything there is to know about us, but we know little about you. So we are asking those interested in joining, to let us know some things about you. Previous crewmembers have sent us a video, and/or a Facebook link. Also, let us know which leg of the trip you are interested in. These are very helpful. Cheers! Ed and Lyn
Phones are tracible. Particularly if you have an Iphone. If I or my wife lose our phone ( or it's "Borrowed" by some miscreant we can use the other persones phone to locate it Instantly ( or wipe it remotely ). Because they are so easily traced, stolen phones are ofter returned like yours was.
Ed have you considered installing one of the newer split unit air conditioning systems that are designed for homes but may work on a boat such as yours? I am guessing your fly bridge is big enough to find an out of the way spot to put the outside part of the system and your boat has enough inside wall space to locate a place to install the inside part of the system. I’ve never been a fan of running a water cooled AC unit on a boat for long periods of time while being away from the boat. I would be very interested to see if the system worked adequately on your boat and what your thoughts are on the system.
We have boat neighbors who have installed three split units on their boat. We like having the space on the flybridge free.
More info please!!!
We would be perfect candidates, almost, to join you except for the fact we are currently at Rudder Cut Cay on our boat. It would be great to run across you as we are headed back up Long Island, Cat Island, Eluthera, Spanish Wells, Abaco and then Grand Bahama, Freeport around the time you should be heading in the other direction.
This year has been a completely different experience for us since the last 2 years doing this. Temps have been in the mid to high 70's with a few low 80's, and humidity only 60%. Been here over a month now and have only seen rain on 2 occasions and not a peep of thunder and lightening. Water is colder at about 75-78 degrees and has been pretty windy more days than not. Not once have we thought about starting up the A/C due to heat. Finding the weather window to cross was difficult and even the day we came across was pretty rough, but at least 7-10 days until another chance. Good luck on getting across, and again, hope to run across you. We will most likely be staying in Spanish wells for the first week of June and maybe a little longer, our favorite place to just hang out. Boat name is Lady Bug, 46 foot Maxum.
We'll be in the Abacos and Spanish Wells in a couple weeks. Hope to see you there!
We are dropping off our passenger in Rock Sound next Tuesday and should be in Spanish wells by the next weekend at the latest. We will most likely stay there a week or two depending on how a project there goes. @@tryingnottosink9107
@@tryingnottosink9107 We have been in Spanish wells for about a week now and plan on at least another week. Let us know when you are around or where you may be. When coming to Spanish Wells, find Thomas Pinder on the Waterspout II or ask anybody. He will take care of your every need and has the best carts.
I was at the Annapolis boat show and I didn’t see you guys. I wanted to say hi and buy you guys a drink.
We were there!
LOL NOOO not butcher block, use green or blue plywood
Videos are awesome fun to watch !Do you ever sail back up to jersey shore during the summer?
We do, but not this year.
Hope to catch you in Marathon :-). we came here for a month and our plans changed to stay for rest of the year or so :-D
We'll be there some time in late June.
I took notice of your Salty Pelican shirt and thought I’d reach out to you guys. We live on Amelia Island and have been talking about cruising the ICW of Florida. We want to move into this endeavor slowly to see if your kind of lifestyle is a fit for us. My bride is a fishing and cooking feen, I know a little about boats, and we camp in the winter months in an Airstream.
What do you think? Want to meet up and see how things work out?
I've been jealously following you for several years. My hope was to do the loop, but the wife is iffy about a year aboard, we have been boating for decades, but not over pleasure boat size. We don't have passports but can use expedited services and pull it off I believe.
I cook like a fool, am also a certified master BBQ judge, and can twist a ratchet like nobody's business. We are a lighthearted couple, that can find humor in most situations!
Interested in giving it a chance?
Ed & Julie

@@tryingnottosink9107 Unfortunately right now I don't see it working out, I was wishing on a star during my second Gimlet, but will get our passports in order and be ready for maybe a future get to gether, I know there is a hoot in the future!!!
We live in Scottsmoor. Every been up to New Smyrna beach?
We love New Smyrna. Especially Garlic!
I do i do lol
How about a Canadian couple as your crew ?? We are in Halifax, Nova Scotia , Canada.

Ok just saw this and it’s 22 hours old. Do you still need crew?
Love watching your videos ! We’re in Beaufort NC headed to Mackinac but wanted to do a side trip to Philly. We called Penn’s Landing but we draw to much 4.5’. Any other recommendations ? Look forward to crossing paths in the future. Richard MV Sea-Quel.
There are several slips that can take 4.5' at Penns Landing. Unfortunately, it is the only marina in Philly that has transient slips.
@@tryingnottosink9107 thanks !
Sign me up!!
That would be a nice thing, but unfortunately it is only reserved for well-off people. But still a nice idea, but you have to have money for it. And for me from Germany it is probably very expensive.
We had already written a couple of times, back then you had problems with the winch for the dinghy Lg Lutz
The winch (davit) is still working great!
One day, we'd love to crew with you. My wife and I are four years from retirement and have the dream of living aboard our own boat. I've got plenty of time aboard large (aircraft carrier) and small (bass boats) vessels, but my wife has never had more than a dinner cruise. We enjoy a good cocktail or two (or three...) and I applaud your choice of Bulleit. Maybe one off-season when you're back in Philly, we can have a drink. Question: Do you have room to store all your tools aboard or do you have a storage locker in/near the marina? - Greg in Montco
We keep all our necessary tools on board. The table saws and chops saws stay back at the marina in our car. Hope to see you in Philly!
@@tryingnottosink9107 Looking forward to it and to watching this year's videos.
there is a company called Filthy and they make great cherries for manhattans
Where did you get the glass Lyn was drinking from? Would love to have it in my boat.
Temu I think
@@tryingnottosink9107 Thanks!
Ed and Lyn we would love to buddy boat with you to the Bahamas. We have a 2003 Silverton 453 located in Ft Pierce.
Hi. We just posted our schedule to Facebook and Patreon.
Bahamas = rerun, why not explore the us gulf coast and mexico
We plan to visit the Gulf Coast in June, after a short trip to the Abacos.
Wawa vs. Sheetz.
Wawa!
Hi Lynn and Ed, this is Kim from Fort Pierce…..I am just one person but I would love to crew. If you cant find a couple, maybe you would consider two single people? Just a thought…….❤

Hi guys,
Like you said you are getting a lot of interest and have to figure this out fast so I will get right to the point.
Time is short and I am flexible. We own our own 25’ boat on Boston Harbor. ‘We’ are both available for the entire trip but my wife will bow out if all you need is one. That said I think we have a lot in common and if this response catches your eye we will send a video or whatever you like.
I noticed you guys you were the first ones on line at Bar Rescue in Florida
Jon Taffer is a fan of our channel and invited us to visit the set. He and Nicole are wonderful people.
