So stoked for you both, I've been lucky enough to have that magic feeling of "it's actually working" when you get to sail a boat you've put together for the first time.
First Sail....Congratulations......I am so very happy for the two of you. Great channel here, so excited about all the upcoming videos. Just take small steps and think twice before acting. And never ever second guess the weather. remember this. Fairwinds
I just noticed something you guys are missing. Fishing gear! Ya gotta upgrade your menu of fresh fish. Also maybe a spear and fins and weights. Enjoy the stuff under the surface. Ya all are great. Keep it all coming
From a long time Seawind owner and knowing the boat when Russell owned it here in Australia, I can give you two pointers that will make your boat sail better with the correct sail set up. 1/. You need a strop at the rear of the boom to hold the clew down close to the boom. The outhaul should be used to pull the foot of the sail parallel to the boom. 2/. If the Spinaker is asymmetric, then it uses both blocks at bow for the tack line to be used as a bridle, with the sheet running aft from the clew through those stand up blocks at the rear. A lot of new boat owners inherit previously incorrectly setup sail setups. Catch up with other Seawind owners who can help
So thrilled for you guys. Wish I was on board to share what I know. Long time sailor/racer. Could have had that baby zooming along. Need a spineker pole!. Look forward to watching your progress. ❤❤
Hope to meet you guys somewhere in the Caribbean next season! My journey started about 7 weeks ago and it’s been nothing short of amazing! Safe travels from Bocas Del Toro, Panama! 🤘🏼😎⛵️
Y. E. A. H. ‼️ 🎉 You are "off-the-dock 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Good for you!! 👍🏻 This should be fun watching you develop into big time sailors.......one episode at a time. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
So awesome! Congrats. We were just visiting Singer Island, saw the channel dredging and our Marriott resort in the background. I watch all of the activity in and out of the port while on the beach. So glad you are off to a great start!
You got a very good deal on that boat and are now living the dream that I want to live. I'm still saving up for that dream and think that I will be able to start my dream in about a year if silver goes up up and away like I think it will. By the way, I have a 1964 Toyota FJ40 that is all original and I love it. I've heard that most catamarans use mostly one engine at a time while in a sea way unless they are in a marina or need the extra power. They do this so that each engine gets equal time and switch from one engine to the other. It would be good to keep a log book on all of this and information about your travels and expenses each day. How many sails do you have and what are they? Is this the same type of boat that Tula's Endless Summer has? You need two life jackets and a through cushion in your tender as well as a few other items in order to not get a ticket. You also need that same stuff aboard Goose.
Ive been enjoying your videos but if i was allowed to suggest one thing it would be to show more than to tell. Sometimes the spoken parts of the video outweigh the actual video scenes
Clew of the mainsail still rigged incorrectly. There should be a synthetic loop that goes around the boom and attaches to the clew, that holds it near the boom. Then that other line you have attached to the boom - the outhaul - will function correctly. I'm really surprised the load on the outhaul as you have it hasn't stripped the line out of the outhaul clutch. And is the spin symmetric or asymmetric? Either way, there should be a sheet that runs back to the winch. You can tack it to one bow or the other, but it shouldn't be attached to both bows.
Thank you. We sorted the Asym on our sail North, but we didn't know about the clew. We had to assemble the sails when we bought it and didn't realize there was a missing strap. We're planning to use a soft shackle to hold it down to the boom as we're making a few to have around. Cheers!

You say is the most hilariously small sail in the world... IS NOT, is the test drive 🫡
Appreciate the Pray for the sea lord
Have fun out there ❤

Thank you so much, that is all very helpful. We are slowly figuring out all the little things like this that are amiss. Cheers!
Super! So happy for you two. Cheers!
So happy for you guys! Can't wait to see what happens next week!

Look forward to watching your progress.

No spinnaker pôles on catamarans, they're rigged differently.
Very cool. Good luck. You got that boat for a deal. I was watching it on YachtWorld. Great work
I think I am going to like this channel. You both have some good fun vibes.
Thank you!
Bout time you sailed it, lol
Nice milestones :)

Fantastic !!! Have fun and take care.
Is it seawind 1260 number one?
Yep, hull #1 … discussed it in a previous episode … quite cool.

Well done guys, everyone starts somewhere and pleased you passed this milestone.
woohoo!! your first sail!! exciting! ya'll are having a ball!
Thought spinnaker was less than 100% of the triangle and less than that was the genoa
