Mtn Biking at Lake Tahoe with TNLLC
The video is in HD, make sure your settings in the bottom right of screen have the playback in HD. We ride 3 great trails at Lake Tahoe, Mt. Baldy, the Flume Trail and Watson Creek. Some of the most technical and challenging trails around the lake. Our group started riding in 1984 and is now made up of guys aged 60 to 69 years old but they are still riding (and acting) like little kids.

The Martha Property in Tiburon, a final kegger party before it became Open Space!
Переглядів 1444 місяці тому
After being in the Reed family for over 120 years the Martha property in Tiburon California is sold and now becomes Open Space. For 50 years the family had tried to develop it but lawsuits were filed one after another to stop the development. Living in the area for over 30 years I am happy that it is Open Space but I do not believe it was acquired in a fair manner.

We were cruising along on a beautiful calm day in the Sea of Cortez on our 59 foot Nordhavn Coastal Pilot named Independence and off in the distance I see splashing. Knowing that it was Dolphins I run to get my GoPro as they headed straight for our boat. Once they got to the boat they maneuvered for position to ride the bow wave. The second clip is when they came into our anchorage in Bahia de ...

Des Plaines River 19.7 clearance Railroad Bridge south of Chicago

If you are thinking about doing the Great Loop you must be able to pass underneath a fixed bridge with clearance of only 19.7 feet. For our boat, Independence, a 59 foot Nordhavn Coastal Pilot, we had to modify the radar arch with a hinge and lowered it when we left Chicago.

Thank you 🙏
For what?
Thanks for sharing a video that I felt like I was on the experience! I did bite off all my nails and have a few heart palpitations. Connie D.
Hey Larry, great video and very exciting moments on the second days ride! Good to see you still living life on the edge😂 Cheers your loop friends from Florida. Rich and Connie
Wow! Great vid and great riding. What a weekend!
What is the name of that resont? 8:46 to 9:10 Have seen Y/T video MVSKOOKUM With Captain Ranger ( always at point) I JUST ❤🙏 WATCHING VIDEOS LIKE THIS born and raised on the west coast of B C
Glad you enjoyed it Johnny. The resort is called the Malibu Club, it's for kids.
happy you enjoyed our Beautiful waters come on back with you new boat
Nice vid but please it’s Egmont BC not Bathgates which is the store. Cheers
After 13,000 miles and 6 years of ownership we are now putting Independence up for sale. The boat has been perfect for us and we have had many great adventures but it is now time to do some other types of adventures. If interested reply below or email me at Independence59@yahoo.com

After 13,000 miles and 6 years of ownership we are now planning on selling Independence. She has been a great boat and is in fantastic condition. If interested let me know by commenting below or emailing me at Independence59@yahoo.com
IMO, doing the loop is about two things. Spending time on the water exploring waterways and sights, and spending time in ports exploring bars and restaurants. So many times people talk about the former and ignore the latter. Nice video. Much appreciated.
Thank you Lord Kiltridge. That was what we loved doing, exploring the towns, exploring America.
Glad to see you out enjoying, thanks for posting!
Well done. As a pioneer of southeast Alaska, the water gives so much tranquility to the soul. It was nice to see the coastal edition. One of my all time favorites from Nordhavn.
Such a great message and video! I love you two! Keep livin the dream. XO
Thank you Jill, love you and the family. We should get a cruise going on the Bay while the weather is nice.
Larry and Jamie, fantastic video, we are very lucky to have shared some of your dream! Cheers.
Thanks Rich and Connie. What made it a great trip was meeting new friends like you two. Hope to see you soon. Larry
Great views , takes me back to my childhood, I grew up on the ocean out if the Dana point to pacific palisades area , my brother and Dad and I were always out there on our boat , always loved it when the dolphins would join us , I would love to live on a boat on the great loop or in the Bahamas, but my wife doesnt want to , you have a very nice Nordhavn . Enjoy the life and be safe .
Thank you Asphalt. Dana Point is a great area. Show your wife some more videos, maybe you can still convince her.
Great vid Larry & Jamie. Lots of fun (& work too!). Good job.
Thanks Steve, always appreciated your great help.
What a great adventure!
Yes it was T Mac, glad you enjoyed it.
I love the CP59 and have been trying to absorb as much as I can about it. I see that you have the Bimini top stowed, but unfortunately from your video we can’t see the arch. Did it clear the bridge or did you have to lower it down? Thanks, I’ve enjoyed all your videos!
Sorry for my slow reply Donald. We had to remove the Bimini and lower the radar arch. We had a hinge placed half way down the arch while in Florida. The 59CP is a great boat, so happy we got it. We recently left the Cabo San Lucas area and did the "Baja Bash" and then all the way to the SF Bay Area, it handled the waves great. Thanks and I am glad you enjoyed the videos.
This looked like such a bad ass trip. Well documented!
Thank you Graham, yes it was a great trip. I do wish I had done more video of it though.
Thanks for sharing your trip! Loved watching your video. Beautiful scenery and great looking boat. Love those Nordhavns!!!
I am glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind comments.
As a woman, I found this hilarious
Sorry to hear the Covid world Scam messed up your Trip! Still looks like you had a blast though!
You are a "Prophet", yes overall we did have a good time but many stressful times. Thanks
Thanks! With all the comments I have read about that bridge, I believe you are the first one I have ever seen put a video up of it.
Glad you liked it Ralph, it was quite an experience. Check out the other videos I did of the Loop.
How many feet does it raise the boat when going through that?
Locks 1 through 7 raise, or lower, the boat between 43 and 49 feet. Lock 8, which is the closest Lock to Lake Erie only goes up or down a few feet depending on the level of Lake Erie.
@@Mac94920 Thanks for the information!
Cool time lapse! Thanks for sharing!
I am glad you enjoyed it.
What in the world happened to that poor fellas foot? Yikes!
While shutting the window in his stateroom the screen fell of and he dove in because it was starting to sink. The heel of his foot caught a piece of metal which filleted his heel!
Wow that looks like a blast! Back in early June I helped bring a Sportsfisher from Connecticut to SW Florida. It was a bit of a bumpy ride, but it was a wonderful experience.
There were many great times but we were very disappointed about not making it through the Panama Canal.
All things considered…you made the correct choice. I would’ve done no different. Excellent video too! LaPaz is a great area. Not the Caribbean…but…
Thanks Ben, looking forward to cruising the Sea of Cortez.
I've been to La Paz a few times. My reason for the trip was not as special as your own. Most of my time was spent in the mountain and hill country. It's a beautiful place to visit.
nice nordhavn, enjoy!
We are, thanks for watching.
You chose the cheaper way about this and you got what you paid for! It's that simple.
Well Roger, maybe I don't like to piss money away and as I said at the end of the video we were happy with the end result. In reference to what I referred to as the "Ugly", it wasn't that big of a deal, but to me a 46% difference in price is a big deal.
I am buying a 57 Jefferson. Do you remember the cost of your Bimini?
My Bimini came with the boat. Cost though will depend on where you are buying it. Being in La Paz now I am having canvas work done and the cost is very reasonable. The material is the same and the workmanship is very good.
Thanks for the information. Nice video
Thanks Mike.
Fascinating video
I am glad you liked it Joseph
Unfortunate that circumstances would not allow you to bring her through the canal on her own bottom.
Yes Frank very disappointing. When we had to make the decision to leave Honduras and head back to Florida it brought Jamie to tears. Thanks for watching.
I wonder if that electrified fish fence will weird out my electric boat? Must ponder .
I am no expert but I do not think it would be a problem. It did not effect our electronics.
I miss that!
The Firsts
Awesome video! I really enjoyed watching. Not sure how long this must have taken to edit, but a tip of the hat to you! You have earned another subscriber. Thank you for taking us along.
Thank you David for the very kind words. Please check out the other Loop Video and the one I posted about a month ago, "Cruising During Covid". Jamie does a blog, Independence59.com
Cool video thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it.
Seems no escape from Covid but you made the best of it. Enjoyed your destinations!
Why do you tubers insist on using the most awful music in their videos as soon as I hear it its lost me.
Gary it's quite simple why we use the music we do, Copyrights! If I try to publish a video that has any copyrighted music the video will not publish, or in other words be posted on UA-cam for the public to see. I have spent hours going through the UA-cam allowable music library finding music I can live with. I wish I could choose any music and pay a royalty but I do not know of a way to do that. In the mean time, mute the music and turn on your own music.
@@Mac94920 fair enough but next time get the wife to sing the ole theme from titanic , its gotta be better , you could be in background with your guitar shouting encouragement "" go on girl youd swear it was Whitney "
@@garryellison6055 if you thought the music was bad now if you heard me trying to play an instrument you would really hate it!
@@Mac94920 God loves a trier. You could try the spoons
Thanks for sharing…please narrate your next one…ok to have many moments of silence. Again appreciate the video….my speaker mute button worked just fine….
Nice job HB...new adventures on the horizon!
Sure looks like you made the best of it with great places and people. Shed some tears with you're and Jamie's special tribute to our brother Dan. Love you two!
spectacular boat to do the loop on.
Thanks, love my boat!
What is this episode?
Congrats for the thoughtful preparation and deserved joyful experience. Great inspiration for the rest of us.
Thank you Mark for the kind words.
Great video….thanks for the ride!
Glad you enjoyed it
It's crazy to me that such a long and beautiful trip has only one Bridge holding up thousands of people From completing the loop. I'm sure if everybody put in a hundred bucks they could probably fix this thing and make it a drawbridge or at least something that we can all go under. No matter how you slice it this bridge is an obstacle. You can use the Saint Lawrence River way all the way to the Atlantic Ocean therefore eliminating All the other fixed Bridges.
Ron there are many more than this one bridge leaving Chicago. To take the river through downtown Chicago, off the top of my head, you need a clearance of below 17.6 feet. We had to take the Calumet River and there were many bridges where we had to have our radar arch down.
Hey Ron - I was able to do quite a bit of research on that bridge - also a possible solution to addressing the issue. See ua-cam.com/video/p-1IL4p2oAU/v-deo.html for the results of the research.
OMG..Turn off the music...jeeeez..I wanted to watch this as I am getting too...
