So good to see you keeping on. I crewed for a guy who got seasick but was determined his boat would win. He was never happy if we spared the boat, he was happiest when we we were dipping rails. "don't stop until it breaks". BTW we won!
Appreciate it while you can Janaye and you have a beautiful Adams Apple girl. Sure Jason feels the same That’s living the dream right there on that passage, magic I would love to be out there sailing in those conditions to a part of Greece I’ve never seen or been to! Simply amazing! Enjoy!😎
Nice video! I love sailing in those conditions as long as its beam reach or close hauled. Following sea's scare me as my boat keeps trying to round up. You'll be a seasoned sailor in no time 👍
great video guys ,you'll be glad to get that passage under your belts ,its all experience and as you said once anchored and safe doesn't seem that bad ,finally caught up to date cheers rob nz.
That was a good watch, nice sailing well done! You guys are pretty brave, I'm new to sailing having just done my Day Skipper in Greece and it's not easy, I get that now. So much to learn, but you learn by being out there and you guys are showing the way. Cool.
A new sailing channel. Nice. The med doesn't quite seem as warm as I pictured it. Those accents are challenging for an American. I miss parts of it because you speak so fast . Had to check out the first couple of episodes to get an overall idea of this vlog and I think for new sailors you are doing very very well. I was wondering about the fear of healing until I saw it was a Jeanneau with a suppository keel. I get it now. Nice liveaboard but don't know about rough weather sailing. Anyway , subscribed and liked. Too many of the other vlogs have turned into baby channels. This is refreshing. Fair winds.
Heya, oh don’t worry, it’s pretty damn hot in summer but our episodes are about 6-8 weeks behind. Just last week in real time we were in Albania and it was 34 celcius 😅🔥 the water doesn’t get super warm like asia or carribean though unfortunately but nice and refreshing as it’s super dry through summer in the med! Hahah whoops, yes us Aussie’s do tend to talk fast 🙈 Ah so please explain what a suppository keel is? So ours is a bulb keel and we have the performance keel so it’s Deeper than the usual sun oddysey’s at 1.95m Hahah yeah loads of channels having babies now isn’t there! Some do it well and still keep in interesting and some not so much 😏 Cheers and thanks for tuning in! We hope you enjoy 😊
Hey Kostas! Crazy hey. Meltemi is a little crazy hey. We experienced last year, although we sailed through karpathos in April so no meltemi then. Episodes are about 6-8 weeks behind 😆
Wow really!! So the passage from RHODES to karpathos can get pretty bad? The wind wasn’t too crazy but the swell was super choppy and short so not fun to sail in. We were getting smashed with water and thrown around a bit.
@@kostasvasilopoulos4468 wow that totally makes sense. It’s pretty exposed down that way isn’t it! The 20-25 knots was ok but the waves were not fun!! But I really would’ve been getting scared if the wind picked up more. We’ve been in 55 knots in turkey before but luckily no swell really that day
Hey David! Yeah sure thing. If you head on our channel and click on video’s at the top. And scroll to the end it should show to video’s from episode in order from then on. If you’re in doubt we always type what number episodes it is at the end of the title 😆 enjoy! And thanks for watching 🙏 cheers
Respectfully suggesting you always start out with one reef in the mainsail, being easier to take out than put in. We always cruise under reefed main, making life onboard more comfortable, balancing out the headsail as sloops are front-wheel drive.
Agree!! We usually Always do this too now unless we know it’s going to be super light winds. I’d rather be safe than get pushed all over the place, Always scares me a little. Thanks for watching Rauf 😁
Weirdly, I would rather be sailing in rough sea like you, especially for a day sail then be sitting at my comfortable desk at work. You would recommend to keep both your sails up most of the time, except maybe dead downwind. In high wind you reduce both sail, until you get a proper setting where you are not fighting with the helm. Both sail help keep the boat in balance. Keep enough sail power to push through the wave and not being bounce around. The real navigation rule is to do everything to avoid collision. Less maneuverable boat and working boat (cargo, ferry, cruise ship) have unwritten priority. As you learned, you stay clear of all large metal boat going 15-20 Kts. Even with other sailboat cruiser, don't assume they know the rules or will respect them. I love visiting the Med with you. Thank you for your videos.
Hey Serge, hahah I love that!!! I have to agree there Yeah we do exactly what you’re saying so that all totally makes sense, thanks for the tips And thanks so much for coming along with us. Cheers ☺️

@@LeadingtheEscapade First of all, thank you for your reply. How many knots did you see during the trip maximum ? i wanted to learn it, i am writing from france,bonne continuation = best wishes
No worries at all ☺️ we always try to reply to everyone’s comments. We always appreciate your messages. I think we got about 7.5 knots maximum on that trip. But definitely didn’t average that number. When the swell is choppy or one the wrong angle it pushes the boat around it tends to slow you down a bit unfortunately. But 7.5 is a great speed. We usually average between 5-6 on a decent day of wind Oh thanks so much, cheers to you 😁
Hahahaha if only you were there to see the full thing and laugh with me, god it was funny. Half the reason he fell is because he had his hand in a chip packet and couldn’t sae himself 🤣😂😂
Nice to see you keep filming. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
Very True isn’t it! Thanks Martin 😄
OMG! You handled that so well. You both seemed so confident. Great episode xx
We’re definitely getting a little more confident in rough weather which is good, all comes with experience I suppose 😆 xxx
So good to see you keeping on.
I crewed for a guy who got seasick but was determined his boat would win. He was never happy if we spared the boat, he was happiest when we we were dipping rails.
"don't stop until it breaks".
BTW we won!
Hahaha I love it! He sounds crazy but hold on him 😜 all the sailors are hahaha congratulations on the win!
That is sailing! Great accomplishment guys.
Thankyou 😆
Sailing pro!!! Definitely!! Very well done!!!!
Thanks Hector 😄
Omg!!!..how wild was that weather 😳 🌬
It was a little crazy 😅😬 never a fun time!!
Things got nautical quickly! Great job to continue filming while in those conditions. See you next week…
Hahah it sure did!! Thanks so much! See ya next week 🤙🏼
I love the soundtrack!! Be safe and safe have a great time!!
Glad you enjoyed 😁 Thankyou, cheers ☺️
Those conditions are an everyday occurrence in the Caribbean. Nothing to get excited about.
So far behind …cause we are in the outback…. Well done you guys … we so love what you accomplish… so proud ? Glad we are related 😂xx love you both xx
How cool!! Hope you guys are enjoying travelling around. Awwww Thankyou ❤️ love you guys 😘😘

Great video! Love to see actual sailing on a UA-cam channel. Well done for hanging in there.
Thanks so much Michael 😆
Thanks so much Michael 😆
Nice video! I love sailing in those conditions as long as its beam reach or close hauled. Following sea's scare me as my boat keeps trying to round up. You'll be a seasoned sailor in no time 👍
Thanks Nigel! We were sailing super close hauled at a tight 30 degrees that day!! Haha we sure will be although dunno if I want too much of that 😂😂
Great job guys! That was a sporty sail! I was getting queasy watching you. 😝
Thankyou!! Haha it sure was!! Sea sickness is never fun!! 👎
Safety before schedule! Was a long week between vids, but way worth it. Thanks and happy you are safe!! Ed
💯 agree!!! Haha thanks Ed ☺️
That's Bundy or VB sailing great learning experience 👍 well done
Hahahah sure Is 😅 Thankyou 😉
great video guys ,you'll be glad to get that passage under your belts ,its all experience and as you said once anchored and safe doesn't seem that bad ,finally caught up to date cheers rob nz.
Hey Rob! Thankyou 😆 for sure I totally agree 👌🏻 calm sea’s don’t make an experienced sailor hey! Cheers 😁

Thankyou 😆 it all comes with experience for sure, you’ll be there in no time!! Where is Greece did you do it? And what’s your plans?
Very exciting, guys.
thanks Clarence😁
looks like fun guys
Hahah it was a little crazy! You would’ve loved it!
New sailboat’s are Nuts fast

Glad you enjoyed it! thanks Trev

Karpathos during June north winds(meltemi) can be really hard to sail ..sometimes 8-9 bft ...40-50 knts...
Hey Kostas! Crazy hey. Meltemi is a little crazy hey. We experienced last year, although we sailed through karpathos in April so no meltemi then. Episodes are about 6-8 weeks behind 😆
@@LeadingtheEscapade ok then enjoy...i windsurf and sail the place for many years ..i would say Karpathos is the windiest place in Aegean water....
Wow really!! So the passage from RHODES to karpathos can get pretty bad? The wind wasn’t too crazy but the swell was super choppy and short so not fun to sail in. We were getting smashed with water and thrown around a bit.
@@LeadingtheEscapade generally Karpathos is windy through the whole year...i would say its a test for boats and sailors visiting first time..
