The pigs got there by someone who thought they could make $ taking tourists out there for a fee. They were right.

Somehow, your arrival at Fairhope video showed up in my feed and naturally had to watch the previous episode to see what happened...now, have watched almost all to this point. We live in Pensacola and would have been great to share some bushwackers at Floribama.... Great job on this voyage, and you guys are doing a great job documenting it. Is there a link I missed listing the gear you are using? Drone shots are wonderful as well as the camera work and editing! If you do sail this way again next year, would love to meet up... Stay safe....storm brewing out there right now....

Don't be sad about leaving the Bahamas! You made it!!! Most don't! Looking forward to the rest of your journey!

Having watched most of your posts I am struck how you almost never seem to enjoy filming yourselfs enjoying your boat. No lounging on the back deck with an adult beverage or sitting at the dinette having a meal…mostly reviewing the next leg…still enjoying your adventure

You three sound like us...we always vacationed in Orange Beach. On the way down from St. Louis the car was filled with anticipation about our 7 day stay on the ocean. You don't know how many times I answered "are we there yet dad"? When we arrived that car was emptied and began our stay. However, on the way back home 7 days later, the car was quiet, everyone but me was sleeping and the mood was somber knowing that we were headed back home to our daily lives. Work, school and the daily grind. When we got home the car did not empty as fast as when we arrived at Orange Beach but the funny thing was that after 2 days home we all started planning our trip for the following year. Shakespeare said it best in Romeo and Juliet when Romeo says "Parting is such sweet sorrow". Have a good trip home I have enjoyed your adventure so much and hate to see it is coming to an end. I hope you keep posting when you get back home. Good luck and take care.

Enjoyed the geography lesson and sights of the place you know as home!

Weren't nothin' ugly about that docking practice! Reminds me of our days learning to dock our Morgan 32 in P.C. Had a good teacher though who just happened to be the same person that got me involved in flying.

Looks amazing I could see you would have loved to stay. Still would be great to hear how you have managed this while still working, having kids etc, q and a would be awesome to share you knowledge and lessons on the practicalities of such an amazing trip

Where it all began...and now back home in familiar waters. I remember my inland outboard boating days 'cause that's what I'm back to doing now. Enjoyed seeing the REALLY BIG WATER!

I "stumbled" upon your channel when a video said you were at Paris Landing State Park and then in Waverly, TN on the Tennessee River. I know that stretch of river well and it was cool to see from your perspective. Been following you ever since and subscribed today to watch the rest of your adventure! Also, we vacation often in Orange Beach and recognized places you went to. Sorry you were there so long doing repairs. I've spent my adult life in Tennessee but my childhood in Maryland boating the Magothy River that is one of the rivers on the Chesapeake Bay between Baltimore Harbor and the Severn River (Annapolis) near the bay bridge. Make sure to stop and spend some time in Annapolis if you can. You will enjoy it for sure. Many nice spots on the eastern shore of the Chesapeake as well. My Aunt lived on the Atlantic near Chincoteague Island. Still visit back in Maryland from time to time and great memories of boating, fishing, and crabbing! Safe travels!

You guys are doing a wonderful job sharing with everyone thank !! you are making me want to do this this year. Hope to be able to do what you did next year getting things lined up. Again, thank you and enjoying these videos tremendously.

What Customs requirements do you have for returning from the Bahamas?

the Bahamas were fun and beautiful. Let's go see some more stuff north!

Great adventures and welcome back to the USA. I am not a big roller fan either concerning waves. After those experiences, I always find new bruises in new places!🤔

I have really enjoyed your videos and commentary while in the Bahamas. Welcome back to the States..

Thanks for sharing your Bahamas trip this last few videos, also that your return trip was safe and according to your plans. 🍻🍻🍻🍻💙🦘🦘

Where are you guys staying in Stuart? We live just south of Stuart. Love to meet you in Pierson and buy you two a drink.

I just knew that this episode would start out with you three facing the camera, announcing that you had sold the boat and were now living full time in the Bahamas. 😂 Glad you're back in the good ol' U S of A. No place like home. Did you clear customs in Stuart?

Loved the video. Nice pivot to Bimini when the seas got too rough. I haven't been to Bimini for several years but when I was last there, a big resort further inside the harbor had much nicer docks than Bluewater. It is a quieter, cleaner spot also. Alice Town is a little raffish and worn but there are some fun places. You went right by our winter home in Stuart -- we are sited where the Inlet crosses the ICW on the south side, so we see all the boats going in or out of the inlet and all the boats going north/south in the ICW. I keep a small boat rack stored in a facility just beyond the Sailfish Marina. Stuart is a wonderful spot. You are smart to own a boat that can make tracks -- I can't imagine doing the same route you did in a few days in an eight knot trawler. Cruising at 17 to 20 knots is far more pleasurable.

It’s a Shame they are making Chub private….

I was just about to register a complaint about the severe “Ollie drought,” but then you finally gave him some decent screen time (with some pretty adorable poses) so now I’m happy. Maybe it’s good that you had to detour to Bimini, so your last night in the Bahamas wasn’t magical - makes the transition back to the USA easier. I’ll bet editing all of the vids from your time there was fun and therapeutic, and great incentive to plan your return there sooner rather than later! Looking forward now to the upcoming episodes in what must have been a pedal-to-the-metal trip up the East Coast and back to Michigan!

Those farewells to the Bahamas are hard, as I learned years ago. If you loved the Berrys and Eleutheras, you would have absoulutely fallen in love with the Abacos. I'm not a fortune teller but I see a future for Andromeda spending the off season berthed along the coast of north Florida, Georgia or maybe South Carolina, patiently waiting on y'all to spend the winter at home in Michigan, anticipating your return in the early Spring (like February or March), and prepping her for a return to the Bahamas, with the Abacos on the list. The Turks and Caicos would be within striking distance too. That is if you can stand to be parted from Andromeda for a winter season or three. With these memories, a rental yacht just wouldn't do. Removing the Bahamas Courtesy Flag had to be bittersweet for you guys after all you endured to get to the Islands. Looking forward to your Atlantic Coast and New England experience.

One of my favorite places is Stuart actually Jensen Beach. Two years of college at FIT they're 80-82. Before they put the breakwater at entrance to St Lucie inlet, saw 3 or 4 40 to 50 foot sport fishers turn around. The 1st boat was larger than them and disappeared in the foam of the break going out. He made it and kept going.

Thanks for sharing your trip with us! I was in Fairhope/Gulf Shores/Orange Beach a few weeks ago and kept thinking of you and the episodes when you were on the hard. We even went to a few places like the Wharf because of your videos. Sail on!

My wife and I just retired payed off are mortgage and everything thing was great.Then hurricane Ian came along in Ft. Myers Florida.We lost are home cars and everything we own. We didn't know what to do. Insurance short change us.We are are ok and things get better in time.Do you know why? Because we still have each other.We could have died that day came very close.Keep your head up it will be ok😊.

Sad moment taking off the Bahamas flag.... the adventure continues, and I am sure you will go to the Bahamas again.

How much fuel does Andromeda hold?

Mid August and I bet you guys either are in New York , or maybe back home by now. What an incredible trip you two were on, I hope any frustrations off cam didn't hurt the marriage, because I know from experience a massive trip like that can be taxing! Cheers to you!🎉 Thank you for posting such a well edited video series.

How much fuel to fill her up?

Boat yards! Problem is that the kind of people that work at boat yards or do boat work tend to be free spirits that don't have much urgency when it comes to doing jobs. And there's not a lot of competition so when you are stuck on land you can't really shop around for someone that will get the stuff done. Or you'll be stuck some place that will only allow you to use their workers.

Hi guys. We are Gord & Shelli and we met you in Ludington a few weeks ago. We are starting to think about what insurance company we will be using for the loop. Is there anyone you can recommend? This can be a private massage but I do not know how to start one

Great videos you people are truly blessed really enjoyed the videos

Great story watched all of your videos

how to cool to see this! ive been slowly watching your journey and i love it. I keep my boat at GTB so its cool to see someone else enjoying the beauty this area has to offer.

I could have told you that you took it to the one place on the Gulf Coast that will cost you a zillion dollars. Much of your stringer damage appears superficial where the engine moved when the drive gear was under enormous pressure due to the hit on the prop. I do not think the engines needed to be removed. I do know that I managed the repairs on a 63 Carver which took out 2 Shafts and 2 props. No damage to the rudders. Those repairs were about $21,000 dollars. to have both props, and shafts replaced which included pulling the boat. I have heard some scary stories about Saunders Boatworks and pretty much would not take a boat there. The Condensation was more than likely due to very cold weather moving through the area, then warmed up really fast. It is not that uncommon in Southwest Alabama or Northwest Florida.

I really like the maps you provide. It definitely helps visualize where you're at and the routes you take.

another outstanding tour. please continue!

Great Video, as always...props from Nauti Gal!

Loving your videos! Greetings from Alabama! The colors of the water are incredible, hope to return someday.

Thank you for sharing the Bahamas with us. I would suggest you find a new anchor for Kathy - other than Ollie!

I like the maps you put up to show where you're at. Im also from Michigan and my grandfather used the turm two tracks a lot. Thank you for the great show 😊

Not much of Ollie in this one (!), but the spectacular scenery made up for it. Mostly. 😂

Your Bahamas vids have been great! I know we're all grateful for the time and effort invested in getting them out, and look forward to the US legs. Thanks!!

I spent many of my formative years in Camp Lejeune. Hard Corps.

Assume you are missing Debby, look forward to watch you traveling through the Erie Canal and Oneida Lake!

Wow! That cave and boiling hole was SO interesting!!! Very cool video!👍🛥❤

2 track. Haven't heard that in a while and it was someone from Michigan I heard it from! Not what we call it in the south, but when you hear it, you know exactly what they're talking about.

Eleuthera means "free" in greek

Watching on the big screen this sweltering August afternoon from Lake Martin, Alabama. While Debbie is hammering the Gulf Coast of Florida. Y'all are living many of my memories of the Bahamas...and some dreams I'll never see (apologies to Molly Hatchet). Driving on the wrong side of the road (and those roundabouts!) was always a hoot for Linda and me on our first trips to the islands. And we survived! Really regret you had to bypass the Abacos but I truly understand how Mother Nature can intervene in the sailing and cruising world. Thanks for such a great vicarious re-adventure for me.

You mentioned May in your time note,I assume by this you are safe from Debbie.All the karst formations were beautiful! As an old geologist you would have had to pry me off from all the rocks I see!Be safe and I really enjoy your videos😊😊
