Sam, out of the 8 billion or so people on Earth...you are the 1st one that has ever uttered the phrase.."I love Brussel Sprouts"
Yeah I hate those things...
Hi Sam, what I really like about your work is your matter-of-fact approach to the gritty truth about being at sea with limited resources. Thank you! I have a much better idea of what to expect on my own.
I just bought my first boat, 1967 Morgan 34. We hve intentions on doing a lot of what you’re doing and I’m so excited. Atlantic crossings are worrisome for me but we will get there soon
As a meteorologist, I was happy to to hear you accurately use the term 'katabatic flow' to describe that wind off the mountains. l done! Dean
Merry Christmas Sam, and many more sailing days for all of us!!!⛵🎄
Merry Christmas Sam. Thanks for the entertainment from Texas 🎄
You live one wild life. Sailing the world just exploring, nuts man. I always enjoy the content. I’ll probably never see Albania in person
Underrated video editor and creative type
Love the passage zza!
Cheers for the vids sam, it works wonders for my mental health.
Have a happy christmas.
Living the life. Freedom at it´s best! Know practically nothing about sailing, but I do a fair amount of ocean kayaking. I think the feeling you get when making port is the same I feel when paddling a whole day. Making camp. It´s a satisfaction...you got here by your own arms or in your case by the wind. Awesome channel, really enjoy watching your content and Merry Christmas from Sweden.
Another awesome video! I want to go back and watch your re-fitting Pickle series again. I think I want to put a hard dodger like yours on Natural Mystic this spring, but I want to make it removable. We only paid $502 for the whole boat, so I’m bot afraid of drilling, but if we don’t like it, we can remove it without much fuss.
Cool. I made mine so I can remove it too. Only need to remove 4 bolts.
Happy Christmas sailing Sam
🎄
Merry Christmas Sam….wishing you a wonderful year ahead 🎄
You never visit chios.. We are waiting you next time you visit Greece. Always welcomed here!! Be safe.
Merry Christmas! Hope you have fun here in Norway :)
I'm really sorry I didn't get to meet you guys in Saranda before I headed back to the US to buy my sailboat. I hope the pizza was from either Limona's or Proper pizza...both have killer pizza and pretty cheap beer. I lived in Durres/Golem for a while as well and it's a cool town with lots of cheap hotels and great food. I saw in the last video you had some byrek bread which is usuall for breakfast and is awesome but the "normal" bread in Albania is some of the best in the World especially the darker varieties. Harder crusts and super soft inside. Yummy! I can't wait to see the rest of the trip to Venice! Cheers!
It looks like you are having a lot of fun Sam! thanks for sharing,. only thing is now I want pizza
Merry Christmas Sam ! Have a great one !
Happy holidays sam!
porto albarella just south of venice good place to winter the boat, they have full facilities, decent prices
Hi Sam, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Hope everything goes well for you in 2024 been watching for a while now keep up the good work love the videos Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🧑🏾🦽🦘🐨👨🏻🦽👨🦼🌏✝️✡️
Hi Sam! Fun watching you- you inspired me to get a sailboat- I’m in the Pacific NW and my boat is in the Columbia River and I am learning to sail her. 1975 C&C 33 Mk1. I was wondering what you are using as a wind sensor with that app you showed? I need one and I thought you had a round one that you found did not work well. Thank you for any help and for showing us the way! Merry Christmas
I was just about to ask the same question.
Merry Christmas 🎅. Enjoy your time
You ever go swimming in the ocean when the wind is calm?
Love your vids man ❤
0:12 I like the iPad mount and the USB waterproof connector. Where can I get a set up like yours? Our iPad is always going flat at a crucial moment!
Spread the word. No sailboat need go without a diesel motor. I picked up a 44 LB "168F" Chinese diesel. It's 3 HP with a 20 MM keyed shaft. I wouldn't be happy with water cooled. A bigger diesel would be hard to hand start. Mount it on a thick plate of aluminum and mount that with carved rubber and or leather. Add a power coupling plate/ pulley, an alternator, and a dry exhaust and you're set. The throttle should be a snap to adapt. $205 US plus the parts.
Was that a clarinet the local dude was playing?? I've never heard one sound like that. Kinda cool. I like your style. Provisioning with a super large pizza. It looked to be three feet in diameter.
Title is truly a critical success
Hey Sam. I dont know if you'll read this but I wanted to put it out into the universe anyways. I hope you continue your journeys and continue to share your thoughts with us. I appreciate your candor in you videos. I hope you can stay healthy and continue to sail the seas. Love ya man.
The pizza!! Gold. 😂 I always thought of them as an investment, too. It’s really eye opening to see how much work goes into moving from port to port. Thank you for bringing us along, Sam. It really takes a positive attitude besides all your know how. Merry Christmas and holiday season, from Texas, USA. 🤗👍🎄❄️
Some time ago after seeing that you had a portable air conditioner, I told my significant other that she missed the video in which you installed a pizza oven into Pickle.
dang that GGR winning CGC36 is up for sail...that'd get you through the southern ocean
Scotsman ( Deep pockets and short arms.) here.
The bigger the Pizza the less it costs per square inch/centimetre.
No shit, Sherlock 😂
Pizza is cheese on toast!
Have you sailed down to New Zealand yet sam? Ive just started my channel about fixing my old boat up to learn how to sail. Plenty of ongoing diy jobs living on a sailboat
Merry Christmas 😊
Hi Sam I am interested on the application on your phone ....but I didn't understand the names.....congratulations for your trip....I have a 35 footer and I am located permanently in Greece....you are sailing so fast.....😂
I enjoy watching your videos from Mississippi. Keep up the free life Sam
Hi Sam! New subscriber here. I'm planning on selling my house and belongings to move onto a catamaran some time this summer. I work remotely and am curious how difficult you find it to edit videos and navigate at the same time as I'll have to be doing that a lot. Thanks!
Hi Sam I really enjoy your videos. I have a question, how many miles do you estimate that you've sailed in the Pickled Herring?
Sam, did the pizza get delivered by drone while you were at sea? Ha!
great title
Thank you Sam!
🇿🇦👋🏻
I wonder what the ancient Greeks would have thought about seeing Starlink in the Mediterranean sky? Zeus and Poseidon and Ares, condemned for their narcissistic cruelties are being chased by an allegiance of fed up lesser Gods? Is Starlink owned by one of those Bond villain billionaires? Mythology could, like history, repeat itself. Or at least rhyme. Anyways, Merry Christmas All! Happy Holidays to those who celebrate other festivities!.
Hi Sam can you please advise me how to get the nautical app TC speeds it looks pretty handy.Just joined your channel great footage.
do you have to check in and out everytime you stop somewhere in albania, and pay a fee?
Hi Sam, would you mind giving here the details of your sailing app?
I’m no sailor so this might be dumb but are you ever worried that your boat will tip over when it’s heeled over in strong winds?
What would happen if Russia had an aircraft carrier patrolling the Gulf of Mexico ?!
Hard Dodger window missing or am I seeing things?
6:00...I love brussel sprouts...yum
Hey Sam, love your videos. In your Albanian sail with Annalie you mentioned she has her own channel but you failed to mention the name of her channel or how to spell her name. I'd like to check it out. Can you share her info? Thanks!
Ann-elin synnes
How many holes have you drilled in the boat today? :)
that navigation app seems really cool! I didn't know that there were somewhat affordable navigation options out there. what's the apps name?
Do you ever come across any pirates. That's one of the reasons why the carrier is out there !
So when you say she’s only four feet, does that refer to her depth from water line to bottom of the keel is only four feet?
2 ft of clearance?!? Are tides an issue?
Not much tides here
When there's no wind turn into current drop sale and snooze drop anchor eat sleep
😁
I know the port captain.
you never show yourself talking to coastguards or what you need to do when entering a foriegn country's waters?
He did a lot of that in Greece
How do you sleep when there are many hours of sailing between ports? Is there an autopilot?
Wind-vane steering
@@Kit2Canada Collision alarm
@@Kit2Canada He has electronic autopilot as well
@@dmitripogosian5084 Yes, no doubt the tiller arm is invaluable - it’s electric so ideal for steering out of a harbour or as 2nd hand while hoisting sails with engin running or, at least lots of power in the house battery. Between ports (and at night) the wind-vane is the way to go as it needs no electrics.
@@Kit2Canada Through previous video's Sam has mentioned few times when he uses one or the other
Albania 🇦🇱flag is cool 😎 agreed
You dont have sea sick?
Buy Sam a pizza
❤
You would be bored on a 40ft cat
Cut the mooring lines! Cut the mooring lines!
Always at 33° aye bro
Bro not dissing you or anything but you have an uncanny resemblance to mr beast
What is the make of your boat ?
If I recall correctly, it's a Cape Dory 28.
Meow 🐈
Dude. It's Norfolk not Norfu*k 😂😂
I’ve always heard it pronounced Norfu*k 😂😂 Might be a North Carolina thing
When corrected by a local Virginian on how to pronounce Norfolk, he stated “we don’t drink, nor drugs, nor fu*k”
Nice edit
Your style isnt really dependent on sailing per se
Could be anything really
I don't understand why you choose to sit on a boat for days instead of simply motoring when your only a couple miles from your destination with no wind. It seems like such a waste of time.
Life is about the journey, not the destination
372nd LIKE; 2028th view about to set sail with Sam. MMMMM... pizza!
Hi Sam. Welcome in Albania. My country.South Albania is beautiful.Hope you had fun there
Have a a safe and happy holiday.
Love your videos Sam.
Happy Holidays, great video, as usual, what an amazing experience you've had and are having ✌️
Hi,I find very peculiar the fact that you didn't spend any time through the beautiful Greek Islands.
Every sailor that comes to the Aegean sea,they love it and stay around for a long time
