Trading the ICW for an OFFSHORE Sail from Beaufort [E304]

After a little too long on the ICW we finally leave the ditch for the open ocean. We set sail in the middle of the night from Beaufort, North Carolina. A sail with kids always brings its adventures on our way South. Filmed November 2023.
If you like what you see don't forget to give us the thumbs up!

A nice visit at the beach and we found some critters. Yay, on the ocean and got those sails full. Kai staying strong and looks like Coral is pulling through.

[@WildlyIntrepid]

We try to keep these two as happy as can be. Kai was born for this life it seems, I guess we chose his name well. But poor Coral will eventually grow out of this sea/ motion sickness we hope, like I did.

[@DowneastThunderCreations]

👍👍👍

[@scottg6799]

Another wonderful video!!!! great music selection and the ids are as adorable as ever. Can you keep them this young forever?? I guess not..........

[@WildlyIntrepid]

They just keep growing, can't stop them. Thanks a lot Scott, you're the sweetest.

[@shredderhater]

Alex, did you cringe when you heard them pronounce “ Beaufort” 😂

[@WildlyIntrepid]

You know it. And it has to be pronounced differently in North and South Carolina. I always get them mixed.

[@jbrat1967]

Well said Mom. You see the world through your new eyes.

[@WildlyIntrepid]

Thanks. It is a new perspective

[@TammyBillings-qt1ve]

I do enjoy your videos what an amazing family on a fun adventure

[@WildlyIntrepid]

You are so kind. Thanks for always following our adventures

[@nicholasbrandon1801]

Great video.
Have a W33 in our boat. I switched to a serpentine belt before our Bahamas trip last year and it was a key upgrade. I felt your pain watching this episode, constantly worrying about v-belts burning up. I did that for 5 years. Spent 11 months Canada to Bahamas, never once had to be concerned about the serpentine belt, just checked it periodically while doing oil changes.
Installed a Electromax Pully upgrade in order to do this and it was very easy to do.
Nick, Stacey & Mylah aboard ‘Bellos’

[@WildlyIntrepid]

That would be a good upgrade for sure. We did find some work arounds (more solar) but we could still use an alternator upgrade in our future and I do like the idea of upgrading belts and pulley to serpentine at some poin. So it can handle closer to 100amps since we now have a 60amp DC to DC /mppt from renogy but can't run it as it works the belts and alternator too hard.

[@daneulekowski929]

Great episode. Sam Holmes home port is Oriental, he has a little shop not far from there.

[@WildlyIntrepid]

Thanks a bunch Dane. Totally missed that highlight, maybe another time if we go back that way.

[@rainfinger]

Great video!

[@WildlyIntrepid]

Thank you so much!
