Magical journey and solo sailing takes courage. Love your camera angles! How do you sleep solo on a passage?

These are wonderful boats in many ways that sailors do not often think about. My wife and I sailed Wavelength, our 1982 Cherubini 44 Ketch , on a nine year circumnavigation. 1. They handle heavy weather extremely well. I have been in three gales, one with 20 foot seas off of Santa Marta Columbia, and two gales between New Zealand and Fiji with wind well over 60 knots. This boat hoves to with a main sail only, no headsail needed. Our vessel has a carbon mainmast with Hood in mast roller furling so we can reduce mainsail area to accommodate the wind and wave conditions when hove to. For a conventional main put in an extremely large third reef or even a fourth. Very little main is necessary. 2. Motion comfort is great. I reviewed approx. 50 boats for relative comfort in a seaway and found only one other vessel, a Cape George 40, that exceeded a Cherubini 44. 3. Surfs down down 20 ft. seas without rounding up. 4. 3:22 Tracks well, thus can undersize autopilot and save energy on passages. My Raymarine rotary autopilot uses 1-3 amps/hour 5. Nylon Mizzen staysail along with polled out roller furling jibe , sheet thru snatch block on end of prevented out main boom was my go to sail plan at night single handing back from Brazil. One can douse the staysail from the windward side deck next to traveler when the wind picks up. 6. I was able to have back to back , solo, 200 nm days. 7. Room to store 10 ft Trinka dingy on cabin top chocks. 8. Unbeatable side deck passage. 9. Room to store eight, 5 gallon jerrycans of diesel or water. 10. Sails flat. Typically 10 degrees heel. Reefing before 20 degrees. I have a friend who needs to sail his Baltic design at 30 degrees. Hold on!

Beautiful boat but very bad interior, the 48’ is better but both these boats are foe sailing not good for living aboard.

bad ass

Have seen a brief video of your restoration project a few years ago . Pleased to see lovely results of her out and about. ..congrats

Thanks Mike do you plan to give a tour or rebuild explanation. Looks great

Amazing!!

Yeah really need to learn vertical video is so 2005...

Love the boat and I saw the boat on Boat Trader. I wish the video was taken horizontally

Cool video until that song started playing

Great filming, but too much music I didn't catch half of what you said, if I wanted music I can get music, even in my car.

what a dream, hope sometime i can sail away too

I've watched this video as inspiration when I was saving up for my own boat. I now own a Niagara 42' cutter rigged sloop with designs on similar passages. Very much appreciate all of your sailing videos... Mike .. Canada

I LOVE THE MUSIC!!!

Great sailing, awful music.

What are the songs you used? I'd like to find them to download. Maybe I'll get the tabs.

No beaches? No Palm Trees? No Bikini's? No Pina Coladas? What the hell...it's a real sailing video

Excellent video! I thought that was a Mason 33 the whole video until the end I saw it was a double ender. Is that a Tayana 37 or some other Taiwanese boat? Gorgeous boat.

Wow! Impressive! We hope to sail to the islands soon!

each second is worthy

Kurt Cobain didn't die, he just decided to become a sailor.

Looked like you were using both hands to me.

Yes, great video quality with a nice narrative. Well done....

I enjoyed 2 of your videos. Not sure if you have any more. Great to see your Toshiba 40 under sail and cruising at hull speed. 5 years have passed. Are you back on the water in a new boat? AL C&C 35 Vancouver, BC.

Less music and more narration...loved your underwater pictures.. living the life brother ❤️

Haha applenutbutter my fav

Would rather hear the sounds of nature than a music sound track.

A few years down the track but thanks for the video man, and thanks for the music as well.

Beautiful sail Sir! Nice Footage from the uunderwater boat. You are a very brave man. Good luck. Take care. Best Regards from good old Germany 🇩🇪

Well done. Loved your camera work.

I discovered Jon & Roy through this video, now I listen to them pretty much every day. Loved watching your other vids, have fun out there! Hopefully you'll grace New Zealand's shores again soon

43 years ago this voyage was far more dangerous. Then there were no weather faxes, weather forecasts were unreliable, and you didn't know where you were, due to the lack of GPS. The voyage nearly killed us, and it did kill the friend I towed out of harbor.

hi Mike, I watched your video , its 2020 , March already. pretty cool your video or better , your trip as such. I am very interested to see more of it , hopefully soon. By the way, I consider the Tashiba 40 my choice , if sailing blue water.What were your impressions, why look for another vessel? It seems perfect for a single hander. wish you all the best , hope to hear. thanks for sharing!

Take me to sailing

great video , great boat (Tashiba 40) great guy ,can we have more?

Hi Mike awesome video. What kind of boat are you sailing?

I just saw your channel and subscribe quickly.. YOLO😊😊

Some good camera work - nice job re the film and edits!

Ta Shing in the 1980's built some of the best cruising boats ever made. I had a Mason 44 and loved it. I now have a Hans Christian 33, which was also built in Taiwan during that golden decade of boat-building.

What do you do lighting storm at sea? Just pray don’t get hit?

Great vid dude, thanx.

Turned off, shit music.

That must of been such a pain to get some of those shots, like the under water ones looking up at the sail.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Really nice video, I kayak there sometimes.

That looks awesome !

Awesome video dude I hope you get another awesome blue Water Boat I’m in the process of buying a ta shing baba in the Caribbean’s cheers oceancowboy from Texas 🤠⛵️⚓️
