Ryan & Kelsey
Lake champlain is one of the best places on earth. I've been going up a couple times a year since I was in diapers. After 30 years I still look forward to it just as much. Truly a special place, glad you guys got to experience such a wonderful area.
In fact, I used to own a Pearson 26' on the Lake at Ladds Landing marina. I miss that boat a lot! Many good times
Your video quality is getting quite good. The intro and exit graphics are very catchy. I really enjoyed your land adventure. Thanks for taking us along. GOD bless you three. JC
Appreciate the kind words and support, JC!! Love having you along on the journey!
JCAJCA3 I just saw this vid of yours on the free camp sits their is 100s you need to get the big map soft cover map book it has all the sit's in their over the years Iv payed just a few times. For camping most at free and seem to be the best some as few sit's as 3 to 10 sites check it out .and if still in the north east stop by R. I. Go to the city of Newport your love it and head up and down Thames st. And drive around the drive ! And great food and many sailing boats and sights.
Another great video. Absolutely loving your adventures by land and sea. Thanks for sharing and keep living the life that most people only ever dream about but do nothing to make it happen. You guys are awesome, enjoy your journey!!!
You can tell how much time goes by because your dog gets big fast. Nice episode!
Enjoy your time with the fur ball while he's little. they grow up really fast. This guys is already way bigger.
Much love from the Chesapeake Bay Area, Keep doing what you're doing!
Such a cool episode. Your both getting very good at this. Great music selections. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Love the commentary, quality of video's, and you both are a joy to watch and listen too. Safe travels!!
Thanks so much for the comment & support! Stoked to hear you are enjoying our vids :)
Living the dream - Oh yeah!!!
beautiful footage! looking forward to seeing you three get back on the boat! safe travels.....GRUNT
L.b.i.....thats where I learned to surf and spent my free time in surf city! I now am in ocean beach In toms river for the summer. Your blog makes me want to trade in my walk around for a sailboat. I wish I could live your life. Enjoy your partner like I do daily....but cherish your freedom! See you off the jersey shore!!! Fair winds friends!
Very nice guys....lots of country side and plenty of fun watching the ferocious pup grow up!
Thanks, Robert!! He grew a lot in this episode as its about 3-4 weeks worth of content! The growing stops soon :) He's pretty much stopped around 17lbs and almost 7 months old now.
Such a noble gesture spreading your Grandfathers ashes in the sea, I’m from Newfoundland and we also call our Grandfathers Pop so I thought was interesting, another great video! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the kind words & support, Tony! We wanted to get up to Newfoundland on our trip but unfortunately couldn't squeeze it in.
Thanks for the peek at Camden, ME. Living in CA I don't get there often enough to visit my parents. The light house Island is named after my great great grandfather.
Liveaboard would be awesome especially west coast I'm in Seattle. You guys are living a life that is unbelievable but so so so cool. Thank you for sharing. I'm a father of 3 so I'm hunkered down for another 10 years. So I have many years to plan and learn before I set sail. Safe travels mate best wishes
I hope you enjoyed Acadia! I grew up on M.D.I. and your video of all the places I have not seen in almost two years made me smile.
Yes. Do that. Some places have nixed liveaboards all together (the state of Georgia) for example. So adding the WHERE we can go to the how much it costs info will give us much needed knowledge that is hard to find these days. Thanks in advance.
just the best 4 places
LOVE this episode! It looks as though you guys had so much fun!
Yes please to the liveaboard cost idea
+1 for the liveaboard costs around the U.S. :)
I grew up going to long beach island in the summers. Barnegat Light. I love that place!
The Treasure Coast runs $11-16 a foot, plus $50-85 for electric depending on the marina you want to be in. There's a very nice one right next to downtown Stuart that includes shuttle service and loaner bikes plus the marina itself is very nice!
If only I knew about you guys when you came to the Hopewell Rocks NB. It's pretty much in my backyard. It would have been a pleasure to meet you and show you some great free camping sites! Keep up the good work!
One of your best videos yet. Love the music choice too. Cheers guys!
Aww yay! Welcome to Canada! lol, hope you guys have an awesome adventure here!
Love the content guys. Wish you both the best this holiday season, and an adventure filled new year.
Appreciate the support, Corey!! Happy Holidays to you as well. 2017 will be so hard to top for us but here's to hoping for more adventure!
I would love to see a cost break down of living in different cities. Great video. Thank you.
You guys are awesome! Sad I missed you in Nova Scotia but maybe another time.
Cinephotography is very polished you've done your homework and its a credit, UA-cam is taking over from mainstay TV who would have thought how things could change!
Nice video guys! I love that you stop at the CG stations.
It's in my blood man! My Pops did it when I was younger and I guess it just carried on. Besides, it seems like every public sector building on the coast is an old CG station haha
Beautifully filmed and edited story.... Rapidly becoming one of my favourite channels - Thanks..... Btw, adorable puppy :)
Thanks for the comment & for supporting the journey!
Your filming style has changed a lot since your earlier video's. I must say, i really enjoy your adventures and look forward to them! Thank you =)
Thank you for commenting and for the kind words! Really means a lot to us to hear the hours we spend on the videos are paying off!! See you again next Thursday :)
ahhh I know where you are on LBI! thats awesome welcome back home for a few days haha safe travels! I'll be in st Pete/sarasota area jan 2018 & taking a 43' vessel from ft Myers to west palm beach Florida!
The live aboard cost idea would be a great piece to have on your site. Most of the information that I've found online through forums is relatively outdated. I've seen advice ranging from, don't tell people you live aboard, to live aboards getting charged a $500 fee on top of the slip fee. It would also be beneficial to learn about the live aboard dynamic. I think a lot of people live aboard for a period of time before cruising, is it an enjoyable experience or just something you have to grunt through in order to start cruising? The realistic factor for living on a sailboat is keeping costs down. It's important that living on a sailboat ends up being cheaper than the average cost of living on land for that specific city.
As an example, in San Diego a high cost of living city you may end up paying up to $1200/month for slip and live aboard fee. However, the rent for a studio apartment in San Diego on average is $1600. So when looking at both of those costs it does seem cost effective to live on a sailboat. Granted I don't live in San Diego and I'm sure there are tons of exceptions, can't even guarantee the average monthly rent.
Since your channel is very transparent in terms of finances I'm thinking a good portion of your audience is looking for that type of info, myself included. Thank you for doing this!
Nick Petersen our thoughts exactly 🙂 we planned on moving to either NYC or San Diego/SF before we ended up vlogging full-time because we'd make drastically more money due to higher cost of living but we'd be paying $700 a month to liveaboard. So essentially earning a higher cost of living wage but paying rent like we live in Florida. There's a chance we may end up doing it at some point in our lives if we ever wanted to cruise and not vlog. So save up after 2-3 years of working in NYC/SF then cruise and not worry about producing episodes or anything. Who knows but for now we'll keep sharing our journey 🙂
Greetings from Houston! Proud to be a supporter of AC!
Appreciate your support!! You make this all possible :)
My two aussies still go swimming now in December which maybe isn't so weird except this is Finland and there's already snow on the ground. They're silly.
Great editing and videography. Miss the sailing, but you did a great job (and looks like a fun time!) traveling the country. I see your post that there is a sailing video on instagram from you (but honestly, have the app, rarely use it. Old guy-ish) Keep posting!
There is an Arcadia, CA too. Home of the Santa Anita Race track. 😎
Great video. Need more dog action, especially when he has a new experience. Our Australian Sheppard pup has been on the cat a few times now and loves it.
There ARE waves in the Bahamas. Check out the east side of the island of Eluthra--"Surfer's Beach".
👍 👍 Thanks for sharing!
I'm pretty sure your beard got shorter throughout the episode Ryan! Haha. Keep up the great episodes.
I got to say it would be pretty awesome to have an idea of different live aboard cities might be.
Robert Belliveau Were on it!
I am getting the bug to do it. While I might not sail around the world, living on a boat is a dream I can pull off for sure. Thank you.
Absolutely you can do it. Living aboard and just sailing every once and awhile is such a beautiful lifestyle. Just a tiny house that's waterfront :)
Jaws was not in Jersey, it was in Marthas Vineyard. Looked like Boston was playing NY.
thumbs up, really good editing.
You guys were in Vermont!
How did you like Vermont? I have lived here for 20 years and love it but cant wait for my daughter to go off to college so I can hit the seas. I cant wait to see the list you guys create!
Love to watch your video's what is cool about this I have been to all the same places you guys have been but haven't seen what you are seeing and now I am to old and don't want to go to all those places again LOL I want to do something I have never done like the great loop and buy a sail boat and sail the islands anyhow thank you for sharing these great video's and letting me see the things I never got to see because work got in the way.
We need more videos of the pup ASAP.
Miniature Aussie. Sweet.
Actually I live in St.Stephen, N.B. and work on the border at another local port. You actually travelled through the one my daughter and son-in-law work at........
Yes to live-a-board prices ! Even places you can be on the hook for good prices.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for commenting, Heather :) See you next Thurs!
Great Video! I would love to see the live aboard costs for all over the coasts, I think that would be interesting information. I'm also very happy to see the outgoing music back. :) Have you thought about doing a state by state map tracing over exactly the routes you took during this trip? I think people would be interested in that, too. See you in Florida! :)
Hey, Joseph thanks for the input! We'll be doing an in-depth video on our costs of the road trip as well as our route over the past 22,000 miles! Expect it in a few weeks :)
Welcome to Canada if you are ever in Ontario come visit😍😍💞🇨🇦
You're almost caught up to real-time! You missed us in Ontario by a few weeks :(
Oh my God, I just realized ya'll were in Danville! We might have been there at the same time! We just were at Joes Pond (Where you guys ate lunch) at the same time!
Small world :) Danville is definitely where we stopped! Beautiful town.
Abandon Comfort yeah it's actually my home town. I hadn't been there for a few years. Funny we were both in the area. Hope to see you back on the New Hampshire area sometime!
LOL. I have lived in Mass. my whole life and never realized it was only in the N.E. that you have pay at campsites and such. They say it goes to grooming the parks, sites, and trails... I feel like a total sucker!
Great video but didn't see much of Acadia, did you make it to the top of Cadillac Mountain? you were also very close to me, I'm in Jackson, New Jersey, wish I knew you guys were going to stop here.
I live right up the street from that big fire hydrant in VT
To answer the cost of living question: I'm about to start living aboard here in Houston TX! Less than $500 a month at most marinas around here, some are as low as $200
Awesome! Would you mind sharing what marinas?? We have a lot of costs mainly for major cities in CA, Seattle & NYC.
I'm planning on living at the Houston Yacht Club (they don't advertise rates because you have to become a member before you can keep a boat there): www.houstonyachtclub.com/Home.aspx
One of the more popular ones is called Waterford Harbor Marina: waterfordharbormarina.com/
Seabrook Marina which is also popular: www.seabrookmarinacenter.com/
I stayed at the Galveston Yacht Basin one weekend (technically not Houston but it's only about an hour away), it's OK but I wouldn't really want to live there full time: www.galvestonyachtbasin.com/
7:06 gave me goosebumps... how about you ?
0:47 you cant fix an entire bridge at once . You fix one side then the next . One side is poured then it takes time to cure (get hard). Then they work on the other side . Frustrating it may be and for no reason it may seem . There are reasons .... Happy traveling !
That would be interesting.
My roommate at A school in Yorktown is also a Phillie cop. Semper P
Hey the cost of living aboard in different locations is a good idea. I hope you post a video with that. I like your videos. They can be even better if the transitions are less abrupt. I imagine you were very tired during the road trip but skipping through too much is a loss for audience. Stay safe.
Jaws was filmed on Martha's Vineyard.
Kudo's for South Jersey!
Gotta love the tax and spend philosophyof anyplace in the northeast. And those states can't figure why the mass exodus is occurring.
Keep up the nice work and enjoy yourselves!
Very cool with a lot or variety! THANS! I especially loved the giant cairns marking some sort of a trail at the end of the vid. Was that an official trail? PEACE OUT! Ü
Woohoo... I’m in Omaha
Have a friend that has his 36 footer in Port St. Lucie and he’s paying $260 a month with electricity and water and there’s a pump out station close and showers toilets laundry everything
Why not do the boat projects now so the boat is ready after hurricane season?
I'm glad there's going to be more sailing and hopefully less kissy noises and baby talk over the dog! :P
cool
Kelsey sandwich / sub looked good mmm
Nice Vlog...
Awesome video! The live aboard cost info would be great. We're currently living aboard on South Jersey coast till we leave for FL. SV DIJAN
Awesome! Would you mind sharing the city you liveaboard in and the total cost?? Thanks guys :)
Sure can I email you that info? See YT sailing dijan o ya subscribe!
abandoncomfort@yahoo.com :) We'll check ya out!
Yes, The Finest Hour was an amazing movie but I would love to see a movie made about Douglas Monroe
Likewise. Definitely one of America's most underrated heroes.
Awesome video guys. Love seeing our amazing country. Cheers
I'd like to know how much it costs to live in different areas. We're up here in NH looking to get into the liveaboard situation. New England is DEFINITELY not the cheapest place to do it... *sigh*
What kind of red dog leash. Great video
LBI!!! 😍
LBI made it's appearance in Episode 1 as well :)
The real question is....
Did you go to "Shirts 'N' Stuff"?
If it's not too personal, I'm curious how your bank account is doing after spending so much time on the hard...car rental costs, gas, camping fees, meals, etc. Also, were you sleeping in the car or did you have a tent? Looking forward to seeing you back on the water...
Nothing is too personal here. We share our life to inspire others to live out their dreams. If we excluded costs we'd be just like everyone else who just wants to "inspire". We want to educate and make people realize they can do this if we can. We own the car, it's a Prius so it takes $15 to fill up, camping we've done for free 90% of the time and we cook the majority of our meals. We'll have a whole episode dedicated to our route for the roadtrip & all of the costs associated with the trip.
Great video keep up the good work 🏄stay safe 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼🍻
How long does it take you to edit and create video episode?
Damn, Im in Omaha.
good evening
Happy Thursday!
enjoyed the video
loving Clark , looks like he has the makings of a hell of a crew member , no scratch that ....a hell of a Family member .Big time
Bob from Calgary
Nothing found on episode 4 of pop's story????
Chris 3M should be around 4:16 in Episode 4
Do you really think there is no good surfing in the Bahamas? hahahahahaha
Also, the fog in Main looks SOOO cool!
I've never heard of surf in the Bahamas but I''m sure there is some. Shit, there's surf pretty much everywhere if you count 1-2s as surf. The question is will it be any good? Send over what info you have for surf spots out there. I'd love to do some research so we can plan stops around swells :)
wwwDOTthesurfingsiteDOTcom/Surf-Spots-Bahamas.htxx
This time of the year, be careful. Can get pretty big.
Looks like mainly the Abacos. Really appreciate the info! Stoked to dig more into these spots.
I hope you catch a good set! Remember, we're living vicariously through *you* guys! :)
Surfer's Beach on the island of Eleuthera, Bahamas.

We're dying over here
The VT! Greatest state in the union
How was the pizza??
We don't have Australian Shepherds here in Australia. You probably know the breed actually has nothing to do with Australia. Your pup is just adorable. I have Border Collies who are related to the Aussie. I am wondering why you docked the tail. The procedure has been illegal here since 2004.
David H. we noticed the tail too suprisingly
right, it really had us beat living in australia and wondering why we've never seen one..
mikenorm2002 not to mention balance when running and turning too. It’s there for a reason.
David H. We didn't dock his tail, the breeder did. If it was our preference we would've liked him to have one.
I have always wanted one but they are super energetic and they are bred for herding. I wonder how he/she sorry forgot? Wonder how well he will do living on a boat full time? Beautiful pup! 👍🏼
I'm out of here.. See ya...
Crew - If you miss sailing (which we're sure you do) follow us on Instagram @AbandonComfort we'll be doing a 120nm trip this weekend :) See you all next Thursday at 10pm for our return home to Luci from Canada back to Florida!
P.S. IF YOU LIVE ABOARD PLEASE COMMENT BELOW YOUR MARINA & COSTS. We'll be compiling a huge list at some point on the website :)
Very cool video, great camera and editing work, when are you guys setting sail, are you going to the Bahamas, we are leaving January 7 for the Bahamas, would be fun to do a meet and great, two other sailing channels well be at the meet and greet, M J SAILING and SHAUN and JULIA sailing, we well have a celebrity onboard, my girlfriend is cousins to Nashville recording artist KELSEA BALLERINI, her and her husband well be joining us, my girlfriend is also from Nashville, she is a studio vocalist and musician, she has recorded with all the big stars, she just came off the road touring with Carrie Underwood as a backup singer, so there well be plenty of live music on this trip, our new boat is a Privilege 615 Catamaran, so its plenty big enough to party on, looking forward too meeting you two.
Right on! We'll be there probably in February. We'll be doing the Keys & Dry Tortugas in Jan. Would love to meet up. Keep in touch
Glad that big beard is gone
