HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2020
- We’ve made many mistakes since day 1 and are still making (and sharing) them to this day… possibly more so than any other sailing channel! So we’ve put together our top 6 lessons that we’ve learnt from new boat owners to three years down the track.
0:45 - Everything that can happen on anchor, should happen on anchor
3:09 - Get used to sailing at 80%
7:16 - If you’re taking on water - Tack
9:43 - Don’t accept imbalanced sails, learn to manage them
12:47 - If you do an upgrade, test it immediately
14:22 - Don’t be afraid to fix things yourself.

Hi everyone! Thanks for taking the time to watch, if you enjoyed the video please share and don't forget to subscribe! :D
Also, you are the best part of Mondays!
This is extraordinary advice - well beyond the, "It isn't always good", liveaboard advice vids - kudos
I subscribed because of this video. ❤️🍻✌️
I know I'm many months late for this list, but if you do a part 2 I would love to see your advice on people who want to cruise but need to take medication. Do cruisers take months/years of medication with them? return home to restock? try and find countries where they can get a refill?
Definitely not laughing at your expense. Found this episode very useful. Particularly the upgrading sequences. Made similar mistakes with other mechanical tasks, and it is very frustrating.
Well done, and again, wise words. Thank you.
I've been sailing for over 40 years and all I have to say is: All great advice. This is why I think you have one of the best sailing vlogs out there.
RIGHT ON. It’s rare that a young, attractive couple shares real sailing advice, and shows the awkward bits of repairs, and shows their failures on the road to success. They’re not hawking an OnlyFans account either, and that’s VERY refreshing.
My first boat was bought with the help of Ms Lyra Holt Dean. Sailing is thousands of years old and we continue this long-lasting, intriguing and at the same time dangerous tradition! Throughout history sailing has helped various civilizations to develop and prosper as people sailed accross oceans to settle in new undiscovered areas. Each time we set a sail it’s as if you could feel the same excitement, uncertainty and craving for adventure as it used to be thousands of years ago. In a way sailing is like a bridge connecting us with times long lost.
@Lewis Hamilton NO, we are just business partners. She is a financial Analyst I met in 2012 that changed my perspective about making money and spending money. We all need someone like that.
I am sure you would do a lot of boat riding or rather sailing this summer.
@Lewis Hamilton I dont think its allowed to drop email address her. If you wish to reach out to her search her name online and you will find her
I love sailing because it makes me feel awake and alive - but also because it gives me moments of peace, meditation and stillness. ...
the sense of order on a boat, where everything has a place and a function, and it's possible to make everything shipshape.
Who are these people that thumbs down a vid like this? They must be very sad indeed...
Love y'alls content guys...keep it up!
Great video! I love it when people can say, "this is what I did wrong."
For a young couple, working together through your ups and downs with the boat is maturing you individually and as a couple, giving you wisdom, which others watching are blessed with from your sharing your experiences. Thank you for for having the insight to share positive and negative experiences not found with many of the other yachting websites. I am finding watching you is benefitting my knowledge of sailing beyond what I had expected. Thank you!!!
awesome episode, most sailors would prefer these sorts of episodes than the swimming in the coral stuff, although me personally i would like more Kiara in the 007 outfit kthnx
Fellow sailors cannot thank you enough learning from your honest sharing. It is priceless. Thank you so much.
Great lessons to remember !
Great advice, very true for us too!
All excellent advice, cheers.

Great and helpful thank you
We bought our boat at the beginning of September, and this is our first haulout for the Great Lakes winter. We're stuck on the hard until late April, for a flat fee, and a good chunk of the intervening time is going to be too cold and snowy for epoxy to harden or paint/varnish to dry. We're trying to get everything on our refit list that requires a haulout done before we launch next year (including replacing all of our thru-hulls and seacocks), so we can do the rest while the boat is in the water next year.
Loved the video, the sage advice, and the light-hearted delivery. When's the Sailing for Beginners book coming out?
Good Stuff!! Thanks!!
Thank you for this great video. Enjoy your sailing.
GREAT video! Thanks!
Love the presentation and editing in this video. Really superb.
Thanks Barbara! I'm glad you enjoyed :D
Excellent video! I hadn't heard about tacking when taking on water.. have added that to the memory bank. Thanks so much for your honest approach and sharing both lessons learned and knowledge.. You 2 are awesome!

Holy crap! Who edited this? The edit was AWESOME! This is *tight*. Great episode.
The cutting between you two talking is spot ON!

I learned a few of these the hard way, too. Especially and exactly like you described with not balancing sails. Jibing, lee helm, and a lucky landing. Thanks for sharing this.
What a luck to sail around the world with such a lovely lady!
Thanks
