    Another great video You guys never disappoint there's always some kind of drama or extreme comedy in your lives. Just got to live life to the fullest and watch your boat float down the river😂. Thank God the anchor took I'm glad your boot is okay and you guys are okay that's most important thing. It seems like forever to wait one week for you guys to post another video enjoy them so much. As always stay safe and God bless till next week

      It was terrifying! In society - we live the lives when rarely smth bad actually happens, so when it actually does happen first you can’t believe your eyes that it IS HAPPENING INDEED! 😅 we were extremely lucky that our boat re-hooked. But this experiences in the last 2 months made us think about some other things .. we’ll talk about this soon! ❤️
      stay tuned 🙌🏻😁

    You said it! I was upbound on the Mowhawk river and let my friend drive after picking up supplies from a marina that was still open. I went bellow to make coffee (just purchased) and not a thousand feet from the marina we grounded on luckly a sand bar. High centered and nobody else on the river in early May. We had to shift everything that wasn't fastened down to bow including us hanging out over the bow railing to dislodge ourselves. We managed to get off but after that close call the fly bridge was the only helm used leaving any dockage. Hard lessons learned are part of sailing unfamiliar waters. Two day's later it poured for three days and we barely got into lock eight. From there on to lake Erie I soloed the trip back. This isn't for everyone, you either have to be nuts or have the skill and confidence to make a trip like that. I spent 28 days sailing from Long Island to Cleveland on a 32 foot Ebay cruiser that sat on the hard for three years. It was a unique experience. You can decide which of two previously mentioned sailor's i am lol. But id do it again in a heartbeat. People forgot how to challenge themselves. Until you put yourself completely out of your comfort zones, you don't really know yourself or your resolve. Thats why I love the cruiser community. Comfort zones are not a lifestyle, they are limitations to learning who we are. And you two are cut from the sails that made mankind take to the sea and explore this big blue ball drifting through the universe. Thanks for sharing your journey guys.

    I've found the Rockna & supreme type anchors that have a roll bar are particularly bad in mud or sand & weed - not because they don't initially set very good, but if you have a tide reverse or a wind shift reverse the pull of your anchor they won't reset after the initial release - its because the ROLL BAR traps the mud and won't release it , then the anchor just turns into a ball bouncing along the bottem... I no longer use ROLL BAR anchors after twice almost loosing my yacht to this fault . GET a Spade or Sarca Excel anchor that will set & reset better in mud conditions

    It’s a lovely island, but too many cats to my liking. The football story is epic btw. Did you know that golden mosq is built to honour that during the tsunami in phuket the village did not get any damage.. As for restaurants and coffee there’s a few large ones where the tourists longboats bring people “ashore” float. Great the boat didn’t get damaged, scary moments. You need an anchor alarm on your phone! Stay safe you two!

    • @sailingleelawadee

When he knew that I was from Saudi Arabia, he invited me for a tour around the floating colony and an introduction to the place and the activities that the village people do. There is a place to play football, but I did not have enough time to play with him. I hope Will visit again next year

      Freedom to do what one wants is the basis of sailing open waters, freedom of speech is the basis of individualism and freedom to marry at any age difference is again individual liberty. Tattoos are ones expression for themselves and not always for others. I hope you have some freedom in your life or what a waste.
