    Rick, I absolutely love watching your videos. You mentioned that you were thinking about starting a new series about people who have left everything behind and moved on a boat. I believe that you would have great success with that type of video series, I know that I would definitely be a regular viewer. Keep up the great work!

    Hi Captain, your idea of facilitating the personal stories of other cruiser’s path to life on a yacht is a good one. Thumbs up.

    The day in the life series sounds great, My wife and I are planning our sail from Michigan to the Bahamas about 5 years from now. We enjoy reading and watching other peoples traveling experiences.

    @paulouellette8080 9 лет назад

    Hey Rick...for you to do videos about the stories of other folks is a brilliant idea !!! There are so many of us that want to do it...& some will...but until we do, feeding the need is a wonderful idea !!! The more we can learn about it all from sources like your videos, the better it will be when we finally can make the leap ourselves !!!

    I really like the day in the life of series you suggested.

    • @SailingSophisticatedLady
      @SailingSophisticatedLady  9 лет назад +1

      MNeilGri Glad to hear, thanks for your comment! Which topics would you find most interesting?

    • @MNeilGri
      @MNeilGri 9 лет назад +1

      Rick Moore Quite honestly, everything you mentioned sounds interesting. I'm buying my first boat as we speak (closing is on Thursday) so I've got lots to learn, and just like hearing those slice of life type experiences, as I always get new ideas (for me anyways) when I watch them. Drake Paragon has done a few of those type of interviews I've enjoyed.

  • @filmismaximus2960
    @filmismaximus2960 9 лет назад +1

    As always another excellent video.
    The new series would be great. I'd love to hear what people who have trade it all in for life on a boat have to say. Would be quite interesting to hear what they found to be the single most challenging aspect transitioning from land life to life on a sailboat.

  • @brettkramer
    @brettkramer 9 лет назад

    Another cool video Rick. Appreciate all of the work and hours that you put into your productions that we get to enjoy. I'd like to spend about a year hanging out with those folks at the yard doing the work, nothing better than learning things by getting your hands into it.. The restoration of your mangled rudder was amazing..

  • @rehtorbF03
    @rehtorbF03 9 лет назад +1

    Yes please! That sounds like a great video series. I've dreamed of the live-aboard lifestyle but I'm on the fence about it. This is mostly because I don't really have a reference beyond pleasure sailing so it's almost a leap too far.

  • @rogermehan7903
    @rogermehan7903 7 лет назад +1

  • @brianmowers2393
    @brianmowers2393 9 лет назад

    Great series, Rick! This is the stuff we don't often get to see...the other side of living in Paradise. I would LOVE to see a series like you mentioned all about the live-aboard life and the people doing it!! I need the inspiration to pull the trigger!! Thanks!

  • @fisbingamer
    @fisbingamer 9 лет назад

    Love the new series, My only comment would be that I wish they were longer. 20-30 minutes. I love seeing all the things that happen outside of sailing. the equipment, the gear, the supplies. It makes me feel that if I were to ever sail, I would have at least a brief understanding of what it takes. Great vid's btw!!!

  • @RedemptionReady
    @RedemptionReady 9 лет назад +2

    Great idea on the day in the life series. I always thought it would be interesting to see people's backgrounds and their perspective. Some people have very interesting life stories just in general and its nice to see different backgrounds.

    • @SailingSophisticatedLady
      @SailingSophisticatedLady  9 лет назад

      bedazzled64 Yes, seems like it would be a well received series.. working on a pilot for it now to test the waters... keep an eye out and be sure and let me know what you think! :)

    Love your videos Rick. Me and my family go to the Caribbean all the time and when we're not there and were here in the cold of Toronto it's great to see you sailing the Caribbean. But ya I think it's a great idea to make videos about other people's lives on the seas.

    That would be amazing to see... I have a major dream about doing that aswell... to just live life like that eventually. I'm studying to become a master mariner and I get extremely inspired by this. Living life on a boat in paradise and not worry about the first world problems.

  • @bobwillett6276
    @bobwillett6276 9 лет назад +1

    Our boats on the hard in Grenada for hurricane season2015, were on Discovery and sailed from Miami in jan and hit almost all the islands on our way down, love your series and hope we see you down island this winter, think your idea on the full time cruisers is right on, we retired 3 yrs ago and did the Bahamas twice before we headed to the islands. We're on a 2002 hunter Passage 456, a production boat like yours. Glad to see someone else prove the na Sayers wrong who preach a production boat can't travel offshore

  • @roguer95
    @roguer95 6 лет назад

    Good idea for a new series Rick. We lived aboard for 10 years in Florida and the Caribbean and loved it. I'm always glad to hear of the experiences of others doing the same. Go for it man! Loved the series on the refit of Sophisticated Lady...that wasn't inexpensive I imagine. You'll have to keep those Patreon contributions coming in...LOL.

  • @charleswashburn1857
    @charleswashburn1857 9 лет назад

    Rick, AWESOME ideas you have coming up! Can't wait to watch.
    We would particularly enjoy the cruising life stories of living on a boat and all that goes with it. :-) If you are planning to devote the time, it would be cool to see what goes on, morning brekkie to an island hop, mooring ball / anchoring location selection (in a busy anchorage), a sundowner BBQ in the cockpit. Maybe a not-so-nice job in between. ... not so much an "interview" but, real life scenarios and sailing/navigational instruction.
    The additional segments covering your refit and equipment selection would be great to watch as well.
    Great photography as always! Thank you!

  • @scotthert2155
    @scotthert2155 9 лет назад +2

    Hi Rick, Great video. I believe a video series on "the day in a life of a cruiser" would be fantastic. I have thought about doing a series of videos similar to this idea. I'm currently following and have subscribed to many different youtube channels and blogs about cruisers and their travels. Every now and again a video will pop up about the "hows" of getting started. I haven't found a video series or blog that truly gets into the heart of the subject. The closest I've seen is an eight part series on the SV Delos channel. I think you should move forward with the idea. Take Care and Happy Travels.

    • @SailingSophisticatedLady
      @SailingSophisticatedLady  9 лет назад

      Scott Hert Hi Scott, and thanks for your comment! I've seen some of the Delos videos, which 8-part series do you mean? As for the potential new series, what topics would you consider of prime interest?

    • @scotthert2155
      @scotthert2155 9 лет назад

      Hi Rick, SV Delos did a series a few months back titled "Cruising talk in Copenhagen Denmark" which is in their playlist section. They touched on some good topics. Subjects that are prime interest mostly involve real life journeys of cruisers. What steps and/or circumstances occurred to push into full time cruising. It seems most people I talk to about the cruising lifestyle all have the same fears. So, how to overcome those would be a good topic. Another would be addressing the false idea that you have to be retired and/or a millionaire. Alternative means of income ideas. How to locate and decide which type of boat to purchase. What type or how much sailing experience should a person have before making the transition to full time cruiser. All of these topics interest me. I'm sure there are more, but these are just off the top of my head. Take Care and keep me informed how its going.

    It would be great to have a series on liveaboards - why and EXACTLY how much it cost and costs month by month to keep going. I'd love to do this, but I'm not in anyway shape or form rich. Finding out the cost details and how they fund the life style would be absolutely gold. Thanks for your videos. Love them.

My wife and myself living in Copenhagen and have been thinking about making a change to that kind of life. We however do not know how to sail or how to get something like this started. Therefore I would very much appreciate such a film to give us an idea about how to get to move from city life to boat life.

    Hello Rick..... I must say your vids are good enough, but your idea of live aboard life as a little add on would be very interesting! I've been watching many sailing videos and I have to say that yours are in a class of their own. Very well put together and always full of great content. I have been a motor boat guy many years.......... and I have just purchased a 22 ft. sailboat to learn on...... I'm hooked.... on sailing now. I ask myself all the time now... What have I been missing? I will be looking for a larger sailboat to travel on. Thanks for all you share with us.
