In my teens used to crew for a friends family in their Fireball racing dinghy and we loved winds. There was nothing quite like hanging out there on the trapeze line.
Three men are on a boat. They have four cigarettes, but nothing to light them with. So they throw a cigarette overboard and the whole boat becomes a cigarette lighter. HI from Woodinville.
Think I suggested this before, but to warm up your force 10 oven faster, use broil then when the temp gets close to the desired setting, switch over to oven.
Our Minpin loves fresh zapped flies from the zapper fly swatter! If she sees the swatter out, she follows us around till the snack drops! Always a wonderful adventure, thanks for taking us along!
I found myself picking up my coffee cup and toasting with you, lol. I did not realize I was doing it until the toast was over. Great video congratulations on the Captain License.
Sequim! The lavender festival is July is my favorite! The street artist festival is amazing. Not to mention all the flavor combos with lavender ice cream to be had! Fun video.
Forget Google. Duck Duck Go is the only way to go these days. Scan Da Navy In...a guffawable moment for sure🤣🤣 Excellent video guys. They're always great.😎👍⚓🦘🐾
I'll guess Sequim as they get more sun being "blocked"and by the mountains and the landmark is Dungeness Spit which is continually growing from the run off of the river. 🤔
Oh my land. That bridge at 12:48? Funnier than kraut. True story... Sailing under the stars, running lights on, a dozen passengers on board. The Captain was up to something. That prankster, aka jerk, lol. He convinced the other passengers to step out of the boat lines, feet on the port rails, hang onto the lanyards, guy wires from the mast, etc., bc: We need to tip the yacht Port side to miss the bridge. It was a 60' mast. We were at high tide. Still gives me a giggle. That jerk, 🤣 I was in the gally w his first mate, his wife, my best friend.
The cool thing about Sequim is the rugged mountains are so close to the deep- green saltwater. Looking back at the mountains from Dungeness Lighthouse is a sight to behold.
Discovered your channel recently. Love it. BTW, and you've probably answered my question a million times before, but what drone do you use for aerial shots?
My sister used to live there. Her husband was a Chef at the Three Crabs Restaurant. Hurricane Ridge, the Hot Springs, the Dungeness Spit... The Banana Belt of Washington, lol. Nothing like the Port Townsend Jazz Festival for the weekend. Sail in, drop the fore and aft hooks. Take the dingy in, share a cab and spend hours walking from place to place to listen to amazing jazz groups. Concerts in the Ft. Warden St. Park. Bands set up in the quonset hut, lunch on a blanket, the PT Marina, the difference between PT and PA... Yum. Used to SCUBA dive off the Old Union Wharf in PT. Huge tide pulls (not pools). Release the knife from the inside of your calf, dig into the sand and hang on if you didn't run the Tide Charts to the minute, lol. In a dry suit.
thanks guys for another fun adventure. would recommend the BUGASSUALT for those pesky creatures. shoots table salt and gives you a pretty good standoff range. godspeed. JDR
I love your videos and life. I finally subscribed so I can keep up. I have my eye on a Nordhavn 40 for sale in Florida. Thinking of selling my house and buying it soon, since the real estate market is crazy right now. I've dreamed of living on my own boat since I was a kid. You guys encourage me. Thanks
If you squint your eyes those glasses become fine Austrian Crystal. Only the best for 007 and his lovely wife. Great video again folks. Be safe, happy yachting.
Not sure why I watched this video, normally I watch sailing ones instead, but since you're in Puget Sound, that's probably what caught my attention. If I had to guess, I would guess that you were probably on your way to Sequim Bay, Discovery Bay, or Dungeness Bay, with great Dungeness crabs!
How is the dehumidifier doing? Oh, and she is cute. And you’re a good engineer. And wish that number on front of your ship was 63. Would fit you both well.
Hey Shawn and Elizabeth! Enjoy your videos. Wondering about the engine noise inherent in many trawlers and other boat designs with inboard, generally straight shaft, propulsion. Are have you ever researched ways to reduce the noise. Seems like sound insulation and engine dampening would be obvious considerations. Perhap noise canceling technology. Any other ideas? Cheers!
@@mvfreedom Absolutely. I've mentioned before, about growing my own tomato. A few different kinds for our appetizer nights! facebook.com/photo?fbid=10223923177781252&set=a.10223052692859673
So when you buy thermostats for your diesel do you go to an automotive store and tell them what size your diesel motor where do you order them from nordhavn Vegas Bill awesome videos always guys are awesome

New sub here! During the Q&A you said "when you were required to get your captains license." I didn't think you needed a captains license for a boat that size that is privately run. ???
@@youtubeisstoopid Oh. Thats a boating safety course. That is required here in Ct. too. A captains license is a very involved course given by the coast guard and you need to have a certain amount of hours on the open ocean. Like working on a big ship as a deckhand etc. It can take a long time. It is required if you want to run your boat commercially. Like having paying customers on your boat for charters etc.
@@jerrycoon3369 researching I see that you are correct. But, there is only a multiple choice exam, basically a year of verifiable operating time/sea time, with 90 days of that being in the past 3 years, physical exam, drug test, CPR and first aid. I am wondering if my 3 years of Sea time in the Navy will suffice, plus a recent 90 days. If so, I may go for it myself. I believe insurance is much less expensive when an owner has a captain's license.
You should invest in one of those portable propane-fired pizza ovens like an Ooni or something similar if you want to broil stuff and don't want to wait almost an hour for the oven. Plus.. pizza in 90 seconds!
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH The oven is propane-fired on their yacht. Also, the 12" Ooni oven is smaller than an electric skillet for comparison's sake, and the legs can be removed to store it in an even smaller space.
Guys,love you both and I've been a long time subscriber so don't take this the wrong way.It's getting a little tired and lame.If this channel is just about cooking and using the Nordhavn as a pleasure boat for overnight trips I get it.That's kind of like having a channel about using your Bugatti Chiron to go get groceries .How about taking that Nordhavn and using it for it's intended purpose ,passage-making .Head up to Alaska , Hawaii or down to Baja.Get that boat out and put her through her paces.
I understand that they are planning some voyaging in the future, and I am sure they will take us with them. But keep in mind that most boats, including those designed for difficult off shore passages are most often used as inshore cruising boats. If there is a difference here, it's that they actually go places in Freedom. Most live-aboards I know rarely get off the dock. For that matter, most people I know with exotic cars take them to the track only once or twice a year. They spend the rest of the time driving to Starbucks @ 35mph. In the meantime, I love learning about their favorite anchorages. When I am not day sailing my ocean voyaging boat.
@@swamprobin3291 I'm not knocking them.I love them both and appreciate what they share with us.Constructive criticism is not meant to cut on anybody.If your followers can't be honest with you than whats the point of having open comments.?Watching them do little projects and going on short hops will only get you so far.Your audience will drift away.Freedom is an explorer yacht.It's time to do some passage making
Just to add. A ship has a center of gravity above the water line so it leans out when turning conversely a boat leans in when turning because it's center of gravity is below the water line.But that makes no sense in this case because Freedom is clearly a " boat" - go figure !

Another nice cruise, thank you for taking us along. I love your galley. The one I had on my boat was tiny but I adapted to it.
Happy Sunday all!

In the Puget Sound, you find that emergency services are close to hand and your Coast Guard and other services will be there fairly quickly.
SUCH an easy recipe... and it looks amazing.
I make something similar so, I am clearly biased
hmmmm.... been thinking... can you roast a bunch of the tomato, while at dock on a grille? so they're roasted. then, all you do is reheat them?
@@gregbluefinstudios4658 yes but they’re good hot and cold on flatbreads, crostini or by the spoonful 😉

Speaking of first aid. Do you have an AED on board ?
No
Greetings from Port Townsend
When I was in the Navy, we were taught that when you define boat vs ship it was simple. A ship can carry a boat. Your Nordhavn is a boat :)
so, the tender doesn't count?
I had a career in the nav and never heard that BS.
WHAT'S A PIRATES FAVORITE RESTAURANT? AAARRRRBBBY'S
Real French bubbles. DELISH 😎
So when you buy thermostats for your diesel do you go to an automotive store and tell them what size your diesel motor where do you order them from nordhavn Vegas Bill awesome videos always guys are awesome
A little bird told me- Port Ludlow.
A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel sticking out the front of his pants

A pirate's favorite letter is NOT "R"'; it's the C ;)

New sub here! During the Q&A you said "when you were required to get your captains license." I didn't think you needed a captains license for a boat that size that is privately run. ???
I think in order to purchase insurance for a boat that is priced above a certain amount they require you to have a license.
@@rondetten9252 I'm not sure but getting a captains license is a pretty big deal and takes years. You need lots of hours off shore as far as I know.

An immediate way of knowing the condition of the engine cooling is to have a exhaust manifold temperature gauge.

You should invest in one of those portable propane-fired pizza ovens like an Ooni or something similar if you want to broil stuff and don't want to wait almost an hour for the oven. Plus.. pizza in 90 seconds!
Limited space on a small boat. Maybe they need a better oven, or maybe marine ovens can't draw enough current to heat up any faster.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH The oven is propane-fired on their yacht. Also, the 12" Ooni oven is smaller than an electric skillet for comparison's sake, and the legs can be removed to store it in an even smaller space.

Not trying to be picky but the crisis was not "diverted", it was "averted".
