  • After the small sail repair marathon, Karl and me headded back up to Fronteras because I had to go up to Guatemala city to meet Maria who came to visit for some days.
    We sailed across the Lago Izabal to a little remote Bay and went for an amazing Kajak trip up and down the Rio Palochic which was accompanied by a howler monkey soundtrack.
    Ahoy, Nike & Karl

    Thanks for another great video. I really enjoyed it.
    The beauty of the boat, the water, the sky, the landscape, and yourself are a joy to see. The Uniform Motion music adds the perfect finishing touch.
    Smooth Sailing

    Great video Nike. The more I see of those Kayaks the more I agree with you. That does seem the way to go to get around. I am really loving your confidence now. Your a long way from where you started.

    Just spent the last week watching all your old vids and "catching up" really admire your courage, determination and "do it yourself" attitude. Wife and I hope to retire in about 4 yrs and live our dream of sailing the carribbean, maybe we will cross paths. May your winds be crisp and your waters calm :)

      Hey +Wake for Me, yeah, I try to do it if I can, but sometimes it's tricky to move inbetween projects. But it helps a lot to keep up the spirit :)

  • @melee401
    @melee401 8 лет назад

    Because Karl is aluminum he would probably handle lightening strike rather admirably because there is a lot of contact area with the water to diffuse the out bound charge. The inbound isn't generally the problem on strikes but the out bound can be a real problem. When for instance people wire all there bronze sea-cocks together for grounding on a fiberglass boat, blowing the sea-cocks out into the sea leaving a nice hole where each was has happened to many. Creating a ground mesh like that is not a great anyway on a plastic boat because when you are in a slip where there are a lot of electrical flux currents, the mesh grid allows those flux current to pass faster than does the water, so what happens is that the outbound side where the currents leave the grid to pass back into the water sets up electrolysis which eats away at the sea-cocks.

    Very nice videos, I eagerly await the next part of your adventure. Only recently found your channel, but have now watched every one of your vids. At some point you might want to inspect your life raft... I watched another cruiser check his and all grab straps as well as the strap tying it to the boat were so dry rotted that they snapped even though it had never been out of it's bag.

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  8 лет назад

      thanks for the recommendation, +MISTERComaToes. Mine is still inside it's time frame of not needing an inspection. But when it comes to the date, I will try to have it inspected.

      He's like 3.5m wide I think, need to check my papers to confirm :) But yes, for 1-2 people the boat offers nice space. With three it gets a bit crowded...

    You should always check about Crocs before doing something like this, as they are capable of pulling you out of the canoe. Wise to check.

      +NeonsStyle How sure are you of this...?

    • @NeonsStyleHD
      @NeonsStyleHD 8 лет назад +2

      Willem Oldewage Positive! It's been known to happen in Northern Australia by Salt Water Croc's and Fresh water crocs. If you think of it, it's pretty easy. It's a massive animal, and has a massive bite force.

    Lovely film, as always. I could never understand why boat people choose to furnish what is, a small space, with loads of dark wood, brass etc.. It Is a small plastic boat NOT a Spanish galleon - paint it all white and maximise the light.

      She's a Pouvreau, a Vanderstadt design made from steel, I think about 32 or 35 feet, but not 100% sure about the length.

    Find some old fiberglass tent poles, sail cloth, clear plastic, and make yourself one of these for your kayak.

    • @mctde
      @mctde 7 лет назад

      I don't hate it, but Nike should take into consideration that if that song ever gets copyright.... her videos will be shut down by RUclips. Food for thought?
