Very cool first time account of a 958 mile passage. The corkscrewing reminded me of how nice is was to get off the dive boat into the water, an option not available on this trip. Not sure I would ever try to convince a spouse to enjoy this, but a great bucket list item.
I have a lot to learn, but I have another trip planned in January similar to this one. I wanted to refer you to a channel you might like. “How to sail oceans” He’s a solo guy. You’ll appreciate his skills.
Once off land, the sky becomes your tapestry, especially at night. The Milky Way and constellations are brilliant and pictorial. At sea I focused almost exclusively on the present aside from the anticipated future landfall. When landfall arrived I found myself planning another adventure!
I watched this with my morning coffee. WOW what an amazing experience, for sure! I would have been scared 💩less! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Grace!!
Great video Mr.Haldis, loved it👍

Well, I can attest to the fact that there’s nothing like a good long acting anticholinergic to settle the soul at sea!
Video was really well put together, 10/10

I’m familiar with him. I really like how he checks and uses weather. He’s a BRAVE man in that small vessel ! Thank you.
962 and counting! Almost there my friend. Congratulations.
Awesome video, feels like I'm right there! One comment though, I do not like those shackles on the jib clew! Most dangerous in my view!
Thank you! Those are grey dyneema soft shackles.
@@sailinghaldis Ah, that explains it! Thanks for clarifying. 👍
an extraordinary film. how did this experience change you? congrats from patient Jim

$15K for good size boat with working engine and sails is a good deal
Bet you that boat didn't pound .
