Thank you everyone for watching and for your comments, I’m a bit overwhelmed with how many views and comments and new subscribers this video has received in the last day! I’d love to do a question and answer video next week to address some of your questions. If you have a question, please comment below and I’ll touch on it next Monday when the video comes out!
GREAT! -- Finally -- someone gives us video without all the music and sound removed. This is the way it needs to be. Much better. Feels like we are right there wilh you. More of this type of video please!
When music is considered, lean towards upping the quality of filming & narrative..I concure- sailing backed by audio stinks. What a treat sharing a long voyage with your pops...Honestly there wasn't a moment I didn't enjoy.
@@AllAboutSpray ..excellent.. Not sure exactly why, but there are two "mistakes" that newbie yutubers tend to make. 1) they use an inordinate amount of fast forwarded video (this should be used very rarely if ever), and 2) they delete natural sound and pump in music, They even start music when they start speaking, if you can imagine that, As best as I can tell, they believe that professional documentaries and movie producers do this. The reality is music is always cut when people speak and is rarely added at any other time other than the into and ending credits. It is just a weird misconception that is now prevalent on youtube.
Thanks for being the first sailing channel I've watched that has not shipwrecked the natural audio with overwhelming, headbanging music. Fair winds to you all.
When I watch these kinds of videos, I realize how much of an amateur sailor that I am despite 15 years on the water. What an amazing journey with your Dad.
Don’t know your dad’s background but I think he’d be a good man to have in a foxhole. He has a slow, methodical way that seems super comforting in stressful situations.
He is very calm in stressful Situations and his engineering background really helps tackle any situation that comes up! I was very grateful to have him on this trip!
Amazing video showing true comradarie between father and daughter. Very touching! As well, you have a natural demeanor for videography and telling your story without pretense. I really like the way you interact with the camera...and, subsequently, with the viewer. Very photogenic...
My daughter is 8 now, and she's starting to get interested in going out with me "to see the dolphins" :-) I hope she will be enjoying the sea as much as I do, and as she grows she may become a skilled sailor too, who knows As a dad, I am happy to see you and your dad being able to spend this valuable time together, a memory that no one can take away from you anymore. Thanks for sharing! Greets from Lisbon, Portugal, Frank
What a beautiful place to live, I would have a hard time leaving there, beautiful, peaceful serene what else can you say. They are very blessed to have a home with land like that. Praying your recovery is expedited and without any possible complications. Stay safe and God bless
This was a GREAT film. Real sailing and real emotion. I wonder if I'd ever have the guts to do a 44-day passage? It seems like you got the best crew ever.
By far, the very best sailing video out there!!! I watched your AMAZING adventure before bed last night and was dreaming sailing until morning. Yes, with MANY questions in my mind about your voyage. I'm not sure if you realize just how many people, like myself, yearn to do this..., but life doesn't always grant us all of our hopes. I grew up on the water in Victoria and sailed on and off, but now I'm limited to watching on RUclips. You're one spunky lady with an awesome Dad. You've inspired me to continue to look for someone to help me continue to learn and one day maybe live aboard. My dream. Thank you
I used to work on Tartan 42/s at Tartan Marine, in Grand River, Ohio - 1972/73.....making the teak toe rails. And sailed with the company president on Lake Erie. NICE boat and video!
To your Father Kaylene and sorry if I mistakingly deleted my comment and his Reply to my comment!: You must be Very Proud of Kaylene! You guys have taught her well on all fronts! Nice to see you're very much still in the game, that clipper ship route is not for the faint of heart! We're on our way home and considered the clipper ship route, but opted out thinking 30-40 days might be a tad much when a 3 day passage is so exhausting!😂......We could use that southerly blow today!
@@AllAboutSpray Thank God you made it safely and yet with more experience under your belt➡️ win win!!.....You are such a kind soul Kaylene yet with strength and resolve to meet any challenge that comes your way.....We hold much admiration for you!!🌟♥️
Nice video. Good solution for the shroud doubling, if you had a dyneema line on board that would make a better temporary shroud as it stretches less. Fwiw swaged fittings do that sometimes, it is definitely a drawback, I would definitely be on the riggers case though, 1 year is ridiculous. Thanks for helping me decide...my next re rig is going to be dyneema, except for the fore and back stays.
Yes I was really wishing I had a longer dyneema line with us. The dyneema I had was a bit too short! If I do another long passage I would definitely get a piece that’s as long as our longest stay/shroud. Riggers stood by their work and replaced the shroud no problem.
Awesome video about real sailing. You are a a true sailor. With a little bit of luck, I'll be sailing the NE coast this summer with my daughter who is about your age. Thanks very much.
Great job I think on the spectra line to backup the weak shroud!!I was impressed when your dad ask you about the routing and you said run it through the bottom👍That’s how I would have done it,if you would have ran through the top it would have pulled the turnbuckle back towards the winch and got slack when released.
Cool, another Canadian. We are just south at Comox Harbour, you've been added to my list along with Magic Carpet, Finding Simon, Sailorama and others. There are so many people who go from BC to Mexico but so few that go the other way, Emerald Steel seems to like to make a circuit starting in California and going to Hawaii then up to the Georgia Strait and back. I will be happy if we make it around Van Isle.... probably the same direction as the vanisle360 but not as part of it as we are a couple feet too short.... and racing is not our thing anyway.
Thank you. I really enjoyed your journey. What’s next after the shroud re-fit ? Good jury rig to support the weakness. Best regards, phil, Suffolk U.K. 🇬🇧
Enjoyed ur video very very much ❤❤❤❤, it is pure sailing with out the editing, I love it like this. Congratulations 🎈🎉 for a greatest passage . From a sailor in Florida ❤❤❤

What is your best memory for sailing and do you own your boat. Love watching this vlog.
I am an old guy who can’t be on the water any longer. Sharing your voyage has been the highlight of my day. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your comment. I’m glad I could bring some ocean to you :)
GREAT! -- Finally -- someone gives us video without all the music and sound removed. This is the way it needs to be. Much better. Feels like we are right there wilh you. More of this type of video please!
After editing this one I think I agree with this opinion now! I will definitely be editing this way moving forward! Thanks so much

Increadible job guys.
I’m one of many disabled sailors with UK Sailability an thanks for showin how it realy is.❤❤❤🙏🙏💎💎🪬🪬🥃🥃🇬🇧🇬🇧⛵️⛵️⛵️🤢🤢🤢
What fantastic dad daughter memories you’ll have and bet dad couldn’t be more proud.
Very grateful for these memories!
It’s actually quite nice seeing raw unedited video. Gives you a more realistic feel for being on the ocean
Thanks for being the first sailing channel I've watched that has not shipwrecked the natural audio with overwhelming, headbanging music. Fair winds to you all.
I’m glad you liked it! Thanks so much
Perfect editing, commentary, content, sailing, improvising, - everything. Well done and thank you.
Thank you so much
The best video. The sounds of the waves and the boat. And actual sailing.
Thank you for the real deal - no music, just the beautiful ambient sounds.
Great adventure. Thanks for taking me along for the ride. Welcome home.
What a refreshing "up close and personal" look at passage making. Good job..thanks for taking us along. Cheers from Tennessee.
Nice to see the old style stuff. Like celestial navigation. Charts. Simple repairs.
When I watch these kinds of videos, I realize how much of an amateur sailor that I am despite 15 years on the water. What an amazing journey with your Dad.
Aww. The best part of of my father taught me sailing. RIP, Dad.
Don’t know your dad’s background but I think he’d be a good man to have in a foxhole. He has a slow, methodical way that seems super comforting in stressful situations.
He is very calm in stressful Situations and his engineering background really helps tackle any situation that comes up! I was very grateful to have him on this trip!
Agreed

That’s wonderful, I’m grateful for my parents to exposing me to the ocean young. Happy sailing !
Thank you and as already have been said, very good editing with no music, only natural sound as it was. Than you and all the best to your dad.

You two are so awesome hope you have a heavy weather plan.drogue, sea anchor, heaving too etc. Worth some pre thought.😊
Nicely done. Straight forward, simple and real. Happy Sailing. from Opua, NZ
Great video! Thank you so much for posting it. I'm interested in hearing a follow up on your rigging problem.
Jeetje wat een reis. Geweldige beelden. Ik heb genoten! Succes met de volgende plannen!
What an amazing passage - thank you for sharing !
