EMBARKING ON THE EPIC JOURNEY, SAILING ACROSS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN! EP-125
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- Saying goodbye to The Mediterranean Sea as we set sail on the first leg of the Atlantic crossing from Gibraltar to The Canary Islands! We conquer the treacherous Gibraltar Strait with crazy tidal currents, Orca's who attack the rudders of sailboats and huge container, ships creating bottleneck traffic at the mouth of the mediterranean Sea. We embark on a 600 nautical mile journey, or about 5 days! We're rewarded with incredible sunsets and hundreds of dolphins escorting us south in the Atlantic ocean! What an incredible first leg of our voyage across The Atlantic Ocean as we make way for the Caribbean Sea!

Thank-you, you are greatly appreciated!
You kids epitomise the true Aussie spirit..kudos!🇦🇺
So much to love about this episode, congratulations guys, a massive achievement! ❤
Ohh thankyou, so glad you enjoyed it. We took a lot of time to edit these past couple of episodes ☺️ cheers 🥂🍾❤️
I'd love to believe that the dolphins are keeping the orcas away and protecting you. :-)
Orca hunt dolphins.
Another great episode, beautiful scenery. Not the anxious sail I was expecting after the cliffhanger episode
Haha totally!! Bit of drama to come later so watch out for that one 😅 cheers ☺️
Sitting here in Arizona I can't fathom the anxiety you guys are experiencing. Safety is No# 1, please take care of the kitties too! You guys are some Badass Aussies in my book! Love you guys so stay safe!! Regards from Arizona.
It was such a strange feeling, but we felt so proud of ourselves once we arrived and ticked off the first leg and it definitely gave us the motivation to keep on going ☺️ thank you, we certainly will 🐱 hahah Thanks so much 🙈 Cheers and Much love from us
Dolphins…it never gets old. They are awesome. Thanks for sharing

I loved watching this guys! Such a great episode and loved seeing it from your perspective. Takes me right back there to that pretty perfect passage that it was. You both look so happy, relaxed and yes you should be bloody proud of yourselves for taking the plunge to do it, especially against your instincts Janaye!

This episode was amazing. The camera work brilliant and it was all put together so well. Music is ace too. Thanks guys. Provided an escape while working offshore.
W0W! The ocean is Really, Really BIG!! Ha!
Thanx for sharing your passage.
Great episode as always from the most enjoyable sailing channel. I love the fact that you just say it as it is and the sense of anticipation and the anxiety of undertaking such a voyage comes across so well. I have no doubt you will succeed as you have the ability to solve all the problems that can arise.. Good luck with the voyage and look forward to following your journey. ❤️
I did that passage on a aircraft carrier .
Wow' that blue of the water is still the same color blue after all these years. COOL"
Thank you for sharing.
The clouds in the sunset on day three was spectacular
Great episode guys
What a ride! Everything about this video is beautiful. The dolphins are amazing and that underwater shot... magic.
You two are great. Stay safe and enjoy.
Cheers from Idaho, USA.
Wow I admire your courage go guys
Thankyou 😅☺️
Great episode! Congrats on getting to the Canary Islands! Fair winds!
Well done, guys!
Thanks so much 😆
Great episode, beautiful sailing. Big journey ahead n new places to see. Fair winds
Fantastic video, congratulations on your first leg of the escapade across the Atlantic. Stay safe!
Congrats on the passage. This was such a beautifully compiled episode and such great editing. I look forward to the great Atlantic adventure. Cheers!
Excellent video glad you guys decided to go dolphins where cool.stay safe.
Great video, fair winds and smooth sailing. ❤
Before Hobart races, I used to start dosing the crew with sea sickness tablets on Christmas Eve, and kept them going until everyone was acclimatised, usually 2 days into the race. Minimal problems experienced.
That road @32:52 scared the bejeezus out of me the first time I went along it (and last 😅). I honestly felt that if you had gone off the road you would have had time to phone your insurance company on the way down.
I had to smile at the makeshift depth charges. I suppose "necessity is the mother of invention".
you guys are so bad ass ! awesome video ! thank you for sharing and making my week !!!
Wonderful video, absolutely stunning footage ❤
Gripping stuff guys. well done. love your channel
Ciao, bravi complimenti per questa vostra nuova avventura nel attraversare l'oceano !!
ciao, grazie mille 😃🫶🏼
Enjoy your channel very much. Best of Luck Awesome chapter!
Bravo.
the good thing is.. if you see dolphins.. orcas usually far away.. great stuff you guys!!!
Beautiful 🐬👍👍👍🙏🇬🇧
Enjoy and take care
Great video. I sailed the opposite direction from Tenerife to Malaga 20 years ago. Hundreds of dolphins accompanied us then too.
Oh amazing!! maybe we'll do the same one day 😆 the most incredible encounter hey 😍
Epic video guys. You absolutely nailed it.
Your friends have a really nice looking boat 😉
🤣🤣🤣 they sure do!!
Reef early!
Amazing!
I was waiting for a green flash at 20:12 Love following your adventure!
I’ve been following a number of sailing adventures but some have ended there sailing lifestyle. Today by chance I discovered your channel. I enjoyed this video and look forward to your further adventures 😊
Great job guys.
Bedankt
Great episode xx
Need to throw those cays averboard mate
Great episode guys ‼️ 🎉 Canary Islands🎉🎉🎉 Hope you leave a link for the sea sickness tablets you were using so my bride can feel comfortable. Thanks for that.
.
Noticed your lifelines are a bit dangerous for actual protection. Might want to have a go at fixing that as well as jack lines for the actual crossing.☺️ Your courage is inspiring. Be safe and enjoy the ride. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
Thankyou 😆 The Tablets are called Stugeron, I don't think you can buy then online but you can ask over the counter at pharmacies. they definitely sell them over the counter in Spain, England and Gibraltar and i would say most other countries! highly recommend she tries them 😄 Let us know how she goes! the only side effect she may get is a bit of drowsiness, but nothing else! and usually you can sleep that off for a couple of hours and then you're good as gold!
Yesss we didn't actually know we could fix this until our buddies showed us and tightened them up for us so they're all fixed now, we also did have jack lines set up for this passage and the following passages but to be honest we didn't really use them for this one as it was pretty calm
Thanks so much ☺️
Much Love
Oh lord, please do not let tomorrow be a b!+$h. Love it!!!!
Juste both a Gen 2012 with 22 thousand km and just did 200 k in first run enjoyed it my mind set was purchasing this to get into adventure riding without paying premium price for a new one and liked all the after market upgrade you can buy for can't wait to get it of road
You’re amazing
what an awesome adventure, subs are picking up!
Cheers 🫶🏼😁 l😝
Guys such a great episode! Thanks for taking us along!
By the way those seasickness tablets "Stugeron" is not available is the USA or Canada!!
So make sure you stock up before getting to the USA!
All the best Richard
be careful guys its long passive🤩🤩😍
Greetings from Istanbul. Good luck and stay safe.⚓⛵🙋♂❤🤍💙
6:03... currently (ha ha !) Is that sailor speak??😂😂
Go you guys!! Looks fab! Need to know what the seasickness tabs are too ;-)
Nice episode congrats o n make it to the Canaries. Looking for to next video
Thanks so much Jonathon 🫶🏼😆
@@LeadingtheEscapade it's Jonathan 😆 🤣
Whoops 😂 I’ve got speed fingers
no problem the reply is what counts cheers safe sail you two @@LeadingtheEscapade
I see a horror film in the future.
🎬🎞🎥
😂😂🙊
Don't read the book, 'Adrift: Seventy-six Days Lost At Sea' .... or do read it! 😁
Well done guys.
Beautiful sail. By the way, I just noticed that I was unsubscribed. I've heard of this from other channels. You may want to say something in your next video about people checking to see if they have been unsubscribed. I simply subscribed again, and all is well.
Well done, nerve wracking, but all great.
The dolphins protect the boat from Orcinus orca
For all of those going this area, turn off all of your electrical equipment. Just saying...,
They work on frequency and the boat's equipment is messing them up I think.
When I'm in a Rush I take a plane
If you're on the four deck and you're not wearing a harness, are you confident that your partner is capable and strong enough to get you on board again if the unthinkable happens?
Go Jase. BBwwwwrp.
“This is bloody it!”
Queenslanders by any chance?
Y'all are doing great,, the Real crossing y a Bitch! Y'all will get there and enjoy the Caribbean for a year or so, then!!! Magic you're going to want The Pacific ocean. Fair winds following Seas, I'm gonna follow y'all from Texas ❤️❤️👍🇺🇸
Ahh thankyou so much 😆 hahah yeah I’m sure we totally will 🤣 it’s in the plan for sure but I think we’ll stick spring Caribbean, US etc for the next couple of years, there’s so many places to see 😍 thanks so much for subscribing 🫶🏼. Cheers, Janaye and Jase
I think you should tighten your lifelines😊
Hahha yep they were really bad! we didn't actually know you could tighten them until our friends showed us how but they're all fixed up now
unpopular theory. The Orcas are eating "migrants" and occasionally get busted by yaughties.
Is it possible that orcas are annoyed by ultrasonic depth gauges, is there any statistics on this account, because fishing vessels constantly use echo sounders. An acquaintance from such a vessel told how a blue whale slapped fishermen due to misuse of fishing nets, this is an example..?
Just wondering if boaters in the area ever use the Japanese method of banging on a metal pipe that hangs in the water to fend off the orcas? Is it expressly prohibited if you're being attacked? The extremely loud noise is used in Japan to herd the dolphins in order to kill them for food but could be used near Gibraltar to prohibit bad encounters with orcas
Great sail and some lovely sunsets. Just wondering what it would take to get Jason to refer to points of sailing......!!!
Thankyou :) Do you mean like sailing direction to the wind?
I do.... close hauled, close reach etc instead of an angle!
@@timothybloomer4246 hahah yes us Aussie’s like to use the easy slang wording for everything 😂😅 we do say it every now and then though
Congrats on the crossing . Bye bye orcas
Hahaha i know Thank god! any other time I think an encounter would be incredible! as long as you know they're not going to try and rip out your rudder with their bare teeth 😅 Thanks so much!
How do you get your packages delivered to your boat are you using the old “Poste Restante” method or are you sending care of a Marina? If so do you have to contact the marina to let them know?
We do it in various ways depending on where we are but usually we have to book a marina and then we contact them to ask for an address to send a package. however Amazon have pick-up locations in some countries and area's which is super handy and also if you can organise something to be send through DHL couriers then you can just jot down any address close by (preferably a marina i suppose, just incase you have any issues) and then we can change the delivery method to be picked up at their office instead, plus you can change delivery day etc too which is always handy. Also there is some freight forwarders from the US to countries in the caribbean where we can forward packages from the US and then pick up at a dedicated office in the caribbean islands
I’m confused. You’re sailing towards the Caribbean and hurricane season? What’s the plan?
Full enclosures called a Catamaran!!!!🇦🇺😁👍super glad no seasickness bloody Awesome. The boats looking sweet, cutting through the water, loving it. Can u lift the boom a bit? Not a Bitch more like a bastard
🤠👍
😊❤️
👍🧿

Chao preciosa…
Grazie Mille ☺️
Regarding the Orca attaccks at Gibraltar strait, the cause are the Morrocan high speed drug+human trafickers who have been operating for a few years now, with no effective solution to that in the horizon unfortunately
Ohh interesting! I haven't heard that before but who really knows 🤔 do you think they've done something to one of them or are just zooming across that area and have caused distress?
Must be able to speak orca.😂😂
bollocks
For sure! The smugglers use 40foot RIB's with 1000 horsepower flying over 100 miles/hour back n' forth the straight. And the straights are firts and foremost aquatic wildlife's highway.
Imagine having high speed races every day on your streets in town with children playing...
It’s because you’re pooping in their water.
🤣🤣🤣
A very silly question y'all, new to yr channel, why is the American flag flying on y'all deck? Y'all sound like Brits , 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍❤️
Hey Christopher ☺️ welcome aboard! Thanks for watching us ☺️ we’re Australian 🇦🇺😆 the flag on our Deck is the Balearics flag from Spain but it doesn’t look slightly similar in some way haha
I give thumbs down to anyone that uses Clickbait
She prostitute herself with that picture as clickbait.
SAD.
another boring couple on a another boring sailboat!!!
"where is the Bowsprit?' or Whisker pole? I missed how you lost a Bowsprit....REWIND!
We explain it in this episode However it’s a little hard to understand my rambling 😂 we don’t exactly know what happened, but we forgot it clip it back into its brace and when we sailed from one place to another in Spain overnight it must’ve fallen overboard when we heeled over and we didn’t realise 🥲 silly mistake on our behalf, oops 😬
