1st Mini Yacht Overnighter w/ Family of 4 - With Problems
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- The first overnighter in the C Dory 22 mini yacht was..... revealing. The boat did wonderfully but the motors, I'm not 100% confident in at this point. Especially not to do 100+ mile trips with some cruising in blue water. After this, it's time to try to find a new motor so the adventures can continue!

Good to see you with family for once. They are the foundation of the man you are.
Absolutely!
Trips bride is gonna want a bigger boat with an actual bedroom & stateroom. They'll get there but that Dory is a fun boat can put the kids in a tube ride behind it
Fastest way to fix your motor issues is to not bring bananas on the boat!
Your not the only one saying that.... Must be something to it...
That's a fact !!
Hey Trip! Good to see you and the family out there! Yesterday my mother, daughter, granddaughter and I got out there on Canadice lake and kayaked for over 5 hours. Granddaughter Maggie is 2 years and 3 months old and she was excited to get in the boats! She cried when she thought we weren't getting in the water. She did so well. We stopped a few times to let her run around and play in the water and have picnic lunch. We found like 3 Geocaches this time. There are over 50 Geocaches around this lake and I have found 19 so far. Bonus we did not fall in the water. We did not lose any phones or GoPro cameras in the water this time! Whoop Whoop!!!
i bet you where all tired after a day like that? sounds like a great time
Chronic awareness yes we were beat. My mother and I are both disabled. We can't walk far but we CAN sit in a kayak and paddle! I wish I could share pictures. My mother is 74 and we only started 3 years ago. My daughter got pregnant that first year and Maggie has gone with us for two years now. We are lucky she loves it too. I am so sore today but I will be good for next weekend.
Yes, it's good to get out there with a family. Looks like you are having a good time as well!
Dude already had his mind set on new motors regardless of how they "performed."
At first I did but then I decided to give the twins a try. That's why I spent a couple hundred dollar s on the hydrofoils on them. We will see where we go from here, thanks for commenting!
I originally subscribed in hopes of seeing more of the C Dory!!! So stoked for you man.
Well get ready! More content coming your way!
Hi Trip . You have a beautiful family . Love your vlogs & your passion for life ! My Dad passed away recently & you remind me of him . God bless . Mark (Toronto) 💙
Great to see you get to involve the family, its hilarious to see you adjusting to all the extra coordinating it takes to include them. Don't feel too cramped, Trip, more practice and a couple more years and your 2 brave boys will be hogging all the fun (chores ) for themselves. You wont be able to imagine going without them. It was great to see your source of joy. Thanks for getting through that one with all the grace and composure you always have on Adventures. You are a great role model, Trip. Thank you. Cute little video if you ask me
Hey I'm so glad that you enjoyed it. I certainly enjoyed taking the family along and can't wait until we all grow into it more. Thanks for watching!
Your family is ridiculously photogenic! Love it! Don’t stress over the motors, be patient. You got this bro.
Oh yeah they are certainly special. Hopefully I can find a source for a motor soon, I know I have a lot of people who want to watch videos 👍🏼
I can’t wait to see your video bro and hopefully the problem was minimum and good for the video I’ve learned so much from you thank you
Hey David, thanks for being so excited to see the next video. I'm glad you are learning something from my silliness on RUclips!
Don't stress about th e filming Trip, it's nice to see your family along. As a photographer myself, I know it must be hard to film with your kids along but it's so much better. What wonderful memories you are creating. My best memories are of camping and fishing with my mom and dad and sister. Your son has some lungs on him to fill up that big float.
Yea it's tougher lol Great memories for sure, that's what it's all about. Ha, yea sure, he could blow it up in a couple breaths, maybe three....
Raising children is the best way to instill independence and life lessons. I was raised around boats and the water and raised mine the same way. Good job, Trip.
Working hard to get my garden planted and now I have this to look forward to this evening. Can't wait.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great Daddy. Your kiddos will have good memories.
Absolutely!
Trip, i can absolutely tell, your a fantastic father to your 2 sons!!!
I try to be Steve. We all love each other a bunch!
Nice one...thanks for sharing...
Beautiful family brother. I was out there on Sunday that weekend. I just live about 10 minutes from where you were. Went paddling on Monday too, in the Gulf... fell and dislocated my shoulder, but it was a beautiful weekend anyway. God bless!
Oh man that sounds like an adventure. Take care and thanks for watching.
Awesome family
Most of the fun is the adventure of getting your boat right in the first place rather than the destinations.
We love family camping trips on the boat and you guys did a great job
Keep up the hard work!
I can't agree 100% on that one but I will say getting the boat ready is a very enjoyable part ;) Thanks, I can't wait to do some more of it. Will do!
Hi Trip! And family...I was waiting for this video so long time....I'm in love with the c dory!! We want more videos....
Hi Sabo! Glad you enjoyed it, more coming (much more) ;)
@@TripSmith I hope so.....God bless you and your family!
Congrats on your Dory! They are great sea-worthy boats.
Thanks! Yes they really are, love that thing!
What a great first family overnighter!! You're doing it right, making these memories with your family. We love this!
It sure was! Can't to make some more 🙂👍🏼
I’m sure you know this but you do realize that you are truly blessed and loved! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful life and I can’t wait for your 100 mile adventure!
OH absolutely! Thanks for watching and I can't wait either....
Amen brother
Dory is king 👑 😋
For sure! Love the Dory!
The first few minutes of the trip explains why I saw the 100 mile trip solo before this one. It's a lovely little yacht. Now it's time to build the wife's confidence for long passages so the family comes with you.
There ya go! That would be fun to do together.
Great to see the family. You are awesome!
My wife and I have been watching your vids and enjoying your adventures. We live just across the lagoon where you put your boat in at Safari. If you ever want to leave the boat in water for the weekend or paddle on a spots LMK. We have a nice dock and few honey holes. God bless
Hey that's awesome! Glad y'all enjoy the videos and I appreciate the offer.
You wouldn't happen to know the dock towards the bridge on your side who has a rowing shell on the dock would ya? Been trying to find one to do a trip on....
You are a Firefighter? Coooool. Retired LEO here. DeKalb Co. Ga
Used to be ;) and was at the time of this filming. I've got a buddy who is a officer at Stone Mountain up there. Yall have some challenges.... Be safe!
Dude, making family vlogs is a whole other ball game! Glad to see y’all on the water enjoying yourselves - hope Tucker knows how to swim cause he’s getting me nervous 😅 Take care!
Yea it's certainly different lol He is a good swimmer ;) Take care!
you can start a new line of health consious snack dips called Trips Dips
Cool to see the family enjoying the boat with you
Absolutely Todd. Thanks for watching bud!
It’s all a process. Your human and show the issues that arise instead of playing in the “perfect world” realm. To that, I applaud you. Good looking family, brother.
Hey, got to show the good and the bad. That's what makes it fun!
Hope you find some good motors soon! 🤞
Me and you both!
Man this was a real wholesome video. Hope we can see a lot more adventures on this little boat!
Same here! Glad you enjoyed it.
Motor issues, ugh...I hope you find your desired ones soon. This was a cool video for a change. Nice to see the family behind the Trip Smith.
Teach your wife how to anchor the boat. Anchor the boat off the island. Pack a boat tool box, extra fuses, gas filter, extra water separator. I have the same propane stove, no matches required.
Mann I saw you pass me down here an was excited.
I love this dudes energy. Just excited about everything lol. I’m looking for that same kind of boat for my family too
Heck yea Ben!!!! Hope you can find one. Truly awesome boats....
Enjoyed the vid with the family!
Glad to hear that!
Hey trip. Best part of video is. That you got to spend it with the family.
No doubt!
Love shell island. Nice first splash. My twin 150's are getting the water impellors replaced next week. I agree with you...... no motor issues.
It's a great spot! Motor issues are no fun lol
If you decide to repower I'd consider closing in the transom as well, makes it a whole lot safer for the family!
Thanks for the input!
To paraphrase some RUclips guy (😉) “Engine issues make the best adventures”. 😄. Your family is adorable, btw!
I guess there is a lot of truth to that. Thanks!
I think you found out just how crowded the 22 can get!
Lol We actually had 2 other adults on it with us most of the day (my in-laws) and it was crowded but not totally horrible.
Nice looking family and great video. 👍
Hey trip I’m watching this in the motel on the first day of the Texas 200 because 3 hours after we got started, and about 5-6 miles out our Daysailer 2 “Osprey” began taking on water like a garden hose and we had to come back to port. Wishing I was out there with the other 80+ boats but this video helped me deal with the disappointment
Oh wow! No fun! At least you were there giving it a go!
Dynamite! Love the whole family, the story line is perfect. #GoOutside
The kiddos take the cake, great video sir.
Yes they do!!
i know that most of your audience are young rowdy people ( i used to be one) but now that I am old I really like kids and family stuff.
I don't know if they are rowdy necissarly lol Glad you enjoyed it.
Living the Dream!
Doing my best to!
Beautiful family brotha and it's some you can bring them along best wishes and calm seas from one firefighter to another.
Thankya! Best wishes to you as well brother.
Beautiful family. Be more expressive with them. Love the boat!
Agreed. Those boys are more important than the content.
lol Maybe that's why the video was so short. I was spending time with them rather than filming.
Use them mercuries as anchors! Get you a set of Zukes or Yammy’s.
Your problems will be over immediately!
Lol. I've got a new Yamaha waiting to be installed
Very sweet.
Thanks for sharing
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Looked like a fun time with your family there. Good to see them joining your adventures. I would rather the two smaller twin outboards instead of a single larger one. If one fails you have the other to get you back in.
It sure was Tim! We will see where we end up :)
Beautiful family, Trip. I fell over as a child without a breath and got caught under the boat and needed rescue. I didn’t have a flotation device on although my parents often would have me wear one but not consistently. Bad things can happen fast. That event has unfortunately affected me my entire life.
Thanks Kat! Oh wow, that's pretty wild.
Your Boys need to be wearing life Jackets!!
We only make them wear them if the boat is underway and they are outside of the cabin. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
I like twin motors on the c dory much less likely to be staranded somewhere.
Love the videos! I’m trying to fix up a C Dory, too. Loved seeing the family aboard. Why did you ditch the $3,000+ two burner Wallas stove for the single burner Coleman? The Wallas vents CO outside the boat and can serve as a heater for cold panhandle weather. I got a two burner marine alcohol stove, so I don’t have a Wallas either, just wondering about the choice. I’m having fuel line issues with a Suzuki 80, and wish I had a second motor, so don’t be TOO quick to switch to a single! I’m learning a lot from your videos, so thanks, and keep em coming. Love your family! I’m south of you in Crystal River.
Hey cool! Saving weight, I don't cook inside much, less sophisticated system, less to fail, I don't need a heater. Glad you are enjoying the videos, how your Dory comes along nicely! Down in Crystal River you don't need the Wallas either. Cooking in the cabin just heats up the inside ;)
Good to have a shakedown run!
Indeed it is!
Put a camper ac on top of the roof and you be set to go! Nice boat
That would be nice... BUt then I'd need a generator....
Glad all the family had a good time . Yeah get the motor issue straighten out before the trip Trip . lol Enjoyed it as always
WE had a blast! Thanks Chuck
Not even a trip dip. 😭
To busy with the little trippers lol
Good thing y’all didn’t have to call sea-tow:))
Yea really!
Awesome family trip, Good luck on a motor, but those will be just fine once you work out the bugs. They will be just as dependable as a new one. Older stuff still works pretty good,, I’m living proof. Lol
Hey TIm, glad you enjoyed it. Haha I hear ya bud!
You and mama bear should have the grandparents watch the babies and go out on a night alone in the boat. That would be a good video idea! At least you did the test run and know what to fix before a big adventure. Your boys are adorable...and all boys are a handful. 😂
You're right, that would be a nice trip. Hopefully she will be ready a trip next week 😎👍🏼
Great video, Trip. Having the family on board during the trip was pretty nice. I'm curious, what are sizes of the outboards mounted on the boat? Do you have the two motors for more power or piece of mind in case you lose one motor while out, you have the second one to get back to shore or the ramp?
Glad you enjoyed it. Those are twin 50's. There are various reasons for the twins. I'm repowering to a single 115
Nice video trip,, nice video with the family you dont get to see real life very much ,,down to earth entertainment
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Go ahead and get a Sea Tow membership! You’ll be glad you did if you ever have any issue
Got one with my insurance ;) Yes, it's great peace of mind....
No wonder you like going out by yourself!! Really tho it must be great to take the family out
Both solo and with the family are enjoyable. Just in different ways ;)
I live in Panama city FLAnd I miss you buddy
lol Maybe we will run into each other one day.
Trip...NO Bananas on the boat!
Yea.... the wife thought it was a good idea lol
Brand new motors can have issues too... You can't trouble shoot or fix new motors with anything but a laptop, throw your onboard tool kit away. Love the new old boat, keep the content coming.
True... but generally they have less issues. I'll keep it coming Robert. Thanks for the comment!
Been waiting for a new video!! 👍🏻
Thanks for waiting ;)
Ive been looking forward to the maiden trip
You and me both!
Any quick discussion of the sleeping layout? There are four of us in my family and have been hesitant with the C-Dory 22 because of the lack of bunks.
Someone has to either sleep in the floor or triple up in the v-berth
Yea sure. Ben is correct. My wife and youngest slept in the v-berth, my oldest on the floor and I slept on the dinette. Worked pretty well!
About 10 weeks since our 90hp Suzuki was orderd and still no word.
Dang, that's how it was on my Mercury 60 a while back.... I found a Yamaha 115 locally! Got lucky
@@TripSmith Great! Hope that means some cool Dory adventures soon.
Beautiful video bro 🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks bud!
Awesome! Maybe take it to a shop before you go whole hog with a $15k repower. But, I understand how having confidence in your gear is priceless, esp with wife and kids on deck!
I thought bringing a banana on a boat was bad luck, lol
I think it is lol
Hey Trip and hey to your beautiful wife and your two boys
Howdy Frank!
Next adventure!
I'm ready for the next one!
Spray a little marvel mystery oil in each engine cylinder. Clean all you engine wire ends, the coat them with marine protective electrical spray. Work the boat. Make sure you have good batteries and battery wires. Perfect boat for these kids. When they bigger, daddy will have to trade up to a bigger boat. Look at Parkers.
Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, great boat for us right now. One day!!!
Good luck on finding a new suzuki with controls...shortage crap
Yea.... Luckily I found a Yamaha ;)
After all these years I thought I would get to see Trip actually cook something but the camera cut. Now I cant help but think your wife cooked that! :D
Aw shoot! I do 90% of the cooking at home lol I'll film some cooking for you soon!
Yeahhhhh man! We were in pc yesterday.
Hey cool! Great area
I went to a party this weekend. Left the kids at home. People asked why? Why? Cuz I would’ve never had time for the PARTY!
Lol I hear ya Jen! There is a time and place for kids and no kids ;)
loved the video, thanks
You're welcome!
@@TripSmith we all love you and you don't have to reply to every comment, we are not going away.
Dang!....Imissed it!
No worries Scott ;)
GOOD LUCK 👍🙏🏻✌️👌🏻💯😎
Thanks David!!!!
This boat is perfect. Exactly what I'd want. Is it a particular model I could search for?
100 yummy LOL!!
He's a funny one!~
Clean those carbs and you should have great running motors
Fuel injected 😉
@@TripSmithoops my bad
No worries
I’d check the all the dealers for in stock ones even though you probably have. Good luck. I think your also seeing bonnet head sharks or shovelhead still part of the hammer family but only get around 4ft
10-4. I haven't checked all of them but I've checked with a good bit. Ah interesting! I need to learn more about the different types of sharks....
Great video brother 👍 love the new boat. 👌 my 7 month old son's name is westin. Is your son wesson?
Hey glad to hear that Jeremy! Yess Wesson 👍🏼
Next up, a night at crab island... It clears out around 6-7 and by sunset you will be the only boat left.
I am not sure on the overnight parking.
Oh yea, I've spent a couple of nights out there on my skiffs. It's great at night....
For Mercury motors call Jacomarine They can ship to a dealership near you.
Thanks for the info!
👍👍👍🤟🤟אלוף כל הכבוד לך
Thanks!!!
115 Suzuki's in stock at Danny's marine in cambridge md
Oh yea? Just took some notes, will probably give them a call if nothing else comes up soon. Thanks Mike!!!
What a great looking family. Teach your wife how to drive the boat. How to stop it, forward, reverse. How to turn it off, and then how to start it. Teach red right return keeping the vessel in the channel.
Thanks Tim! Yea, I was going over the basics with her. Need to keep letting her practice.
Should just go with a single 250 vmax for reliably
A single 250 would be waaayyyy to much. They are max rated for like 115. I have two 50s on mine and it’s plenty
Yea.... that may not go so well colin. Going with a single 115 ;)
If you go with one motor remember that the boats ballast is based on 2
Ummmm is that a joke of some sort I'm missing? I don't get it
No I’m just say that if the motor is lighter bow will ride lower and some other small things
So if you do try and get one that weights close or a little heavier
Unless that boat was designed for one motor then your good
@@stretchedout6408 Gotcha. I'll be saving close to 100 lbs off the back which was one of my goals.
@@TripSmith yea now you’ll need to do the same up front or add it back to the stern to keep it the way it was designed
