What a picture perfect episode finally docking with Teulu put the icing on your cake. Marvelous cinematography and editing with music. We LOVE this channel!
I love watching your videos. My wife and live in Canada but we owned a vacation home in Maui for the past 15 years. We sold a year before the big Lahaina fire and now I’m wanting to buy a 35’ sail boat and continue our ocean adventures. We are both 74 I’m a very fit plumber. I know I could fix everything just really wondering if I can learn to sail. Keep up the great videos.
That "get the mainsail down" in emergency conditions is why many boats have "downhauls" on the main. If you didn't have a topping lift originally, I seriously doubt you had something like a downhaul.
Hey guys. Great video, thank you two for sharing. Lisa and I have had our tribulations on board for sure; we were dismasted in a squall (not on JO BETH!!), I went overboard in a squall at sea - harnessed and tethered, but terrifying nonetheless; I woke up at anchor last fall with a pinch nerve in my spine and an uncooperative left arm and hand; and then of course, I had a stroke while at anchor about two months ago. (It all sounds really bad when I write it down!! 😱) We're still here, still sailing, still living. Not only surviving, but thriving. You guys will do the same. Remarkably, we've not ever had a squall hit us offshore at night. We've been in fog, rain, and have seen lightning and heard thunder, and have sailed double reefed in 28-30 from dusk til dawn, but all squall-less. We've certainly been hit with squalls while anchored. Once, we did three complete 360° spins around our anchor inside of minutes during a 50 knot thunderstorm. Yes, we humans are strange beings - all part of the game though, right? Take care of each other, and be well.
When reefing I prefer to tighten the reef for the clew (new out haul) before re-hoisting the main halyard. Reason is the new clew should be on the boom to get leech tension. Btw don’t forget to ease the vang.
I have not yet met a sailor who likes lighting. If anything bad is going to happen, it is going to be at night. When we sailed at night, we always had the main on the 2nd ref. Happy Sailing ⛵
Second point. I feel for you on the anemometer. Mine broke just before a 3,000 mile passage. Btw, when you take a deck level wind speed it will be less than the mast. This is due to wind sheer. The difference reduces and wind speed increases.
Final tip and I will shut up. When reefing downwind to reduce the pressure. 1) raise topping lift. 2). Full ease of sheet 3). Ease main 1 foot and then tighten clew, repeat this to reduce the pinning effect.
Just started watching your vids and subscribed. Love them ,just checked Fresh water Dolphins were and have return in numbers to Lake Erie And canals. Fresh and river dolphins found all over the world. We have them here in Southern Australia. Fair Winds.
Ik it's probably impossible to film and sail in a storm, but I wish someone would put a camera on their mast or something. You never get to see what rough storms are like because the sailors are too busy staying alive. I completely understand, but a mast cam would be cool.
"Storm at sea" is in your title...and you didn't film any of it? Anywho, the minute you think "maybe I should put a reef in the main"...you need to put two reefs in it. Shots are great, audio is amazing, great choices for music. If you don't me me saying, you guys remind me of Juliet Lewis and Jeff Goldblum.
you know what, I would definitely do what kate did when she did the royal bow. you wouldn't even have to dare me I would walk right in to customs and bow like I have never bowed before. c'mon that would be funny
@@crufflerdougit’s daylight. Another person on deck. Not too rough or windy as they’re shaking out a reef. I said when required. I don’t think they always need to be worn when going forward, but again, opinions may differ.

Loved watching you reef the sails. Just adds to our sailing learning

Looks like you have a very capable boat. Unless I miss my guess I would say Pacific Seacraft.
Really enjoyed this one. Excellent video and sound editing, good music selection. Thanks

Great video. Go Boundless!
I wonder why the Americans say “oh my god”. We say ”bloody hell” 😂
This American says WTF and let it go at that
@@janetjeason1341 I’ve heard that as well, 😂
😀

Always possible to reef the mainsail no matter the tention on the sail? Also if its a in-mast-sail? Nice pixel-quality on your videos!

It's called a masthead fly

NO harness or life jacket.
What are you talking about? Both are utilized when required in this video
