It was great seeing three generations enjoying camaraderie aboard Northern Dancer V, Al. Your photographic, cinematic, and musical composition continues to incrementally improve. Your father’s health and positive attitude is an inspiration to which we may aspire. It would be interesting to hear each generation’s life story, so far. 👍😎
Such treasured memories to have Alfy, not just for you but equally for your Dad and your son. The simple pleasures in life are so often the greatest. As ever, your eye for capturing such moments, let alone the scenery is just perfect. Well done :).
Thanks for showing me so much more of our province, I travel vicariously through your videos. Your Dad seems to handle the job of helmsman very well. NDV always looks good at anchor, BUT when you put up the sails she becomes awesome. CPC FIC 93-3
So glad you enjoy seeing more of the BC coast through our lens. My dad just loves helming and I am glad to let him take the helm as much as he wants. It truly is another experience once the sails are hoisted! CPC FIC 10-2!! 🔍
Great video,, watched it a few times. Lucky man, lost my son years ago and my dad 2 years ago,, wonderful Alfi enjoy it. Wow Tate is all grown up been following you guys a long time. Your dad is an inspiration Im 70 and look forward to being in as good as shape as him ⛵️
Thanks Alfy for sharing the video of your family time. Nice to see your dad again and what became of the little boy, being active and enjoying themselves! We might see your daughter again in the future, perhaps?
So glad you enjoyed it, and glad you enjoyed seeing my son all grown up. My daughter has bee out a few times so I am sure she will make an appearance again! :)
Absolutely awe-inspiring to witness three generations coming together, embracing the beauty of the sea aboard the Northern Dancer V as they explore the majestic wonders of the west coast. It's a testament to the timeless joy of sailing, the bonds it forges, and the memories it creates. Here's to endless adventures and the winds of family unity guiding your journey.
Oh my goodness, Alfy! You craft such wonderful, soothing, entertaining and interesting videos. What a great time you must have had. Thanks ever so for sharing that experience with us. It was so pleasant watching you three building bonds sharing a sailing adventure in our beautiful Salish Sea. Cheers from Victoria 🇨🇦
Thank you for your wonderful comments and so glad you enjoyed following along with us for this little cruise! :). Fair winds from just a little north of you at Ladysmith.
all my days I've spent at sea pursuing the wind and my invisible dreams, I've learned beauty is often best viewed from afar, as women, mountains and distant island shores ⛵️ love your style Alfie
So great to meet your dad! He doesn't like to hurry either, does he. He is living proof that the "apple doesn't fall far from the tree"! Thanks for another relaxing and I might add, heart-warming video, Alfi.
So glad you enjoyed seeing my dad get out on this trip, and he did a few other trips on our last sailboat. he always enjoys getting out on the water! So glad you enjoyed this episode. :)
You're a good Captan Alfy. I remember my father sharing the wheel. And how much joy, it gave to people.Seeing your father face, at the start of the video. It's Something, I try to do on my yacht now. A Treasured moments. It's like they say. It's a little thing in life. That can mean the most!⛵
Thank you and so glad you have that memory. I really enjoying seeing my dad and others get a chance to helm. It is true that the little things in life can mean the most. :)
I was born and raised on lower Vancouver Island and you always find places I have not seen or sometimes even heard of to see and record with your artistic eye! Todd Inlet’s industrial past shown on a rainy and dreary day - who would have guessed? Wonderful!
Happy Birthday to your dad! Tate, I remember seeing him in one of your video on your previous boat a long time ago! We have a friend in common, Jessy. He took our boat from Mosquito Creek Marina to Mud Bay yacht Club last weekend with his GF and anchored overnight in Montague to watch the northern lights. Haha, I can see you in your dad, the smile the soft talking... 🙂
You have been watching a while then and I am sure most remember Tate as a much smaller child! ha. So fun that Jessy could take your boat out, and hopefully they saw some northern lights. I guess the apples don't fall from the tree. :)
So glad you enjoyed seeing them come along for this trip. They have both been on many of our older videos, and my dad even helped me sail my last boat from Vancouver to Prince Rupert in 2016. :)
It was relaxing watching this. We're here on the East coast of Australia where it is raining too. Thanks for the video Alfy and for introducing us to the crew.
I cherish every moment with them both and so sorry to hear about your dad. My daughter is doing well also and wished that she was able to have made the trip this time.

Has to be a nice feeling to show a father someplace he hasn't seen at his age.

As you know, it was a big compliment to have your dad to spend the day with- thank you ❤
Thank you and you are more than welcome. :)
87! WOW! Hat's off to dad!
So glad to get this time with him and he had so much fun!
Thanks Alfy. You dad is looking great. I hope I'm as young looking as him when I'm his age, I don't think so though. I'm 70 now and he's got me beat.
I am so glad that he can still come out for these cruising trips! :)

Very nice words and it was so great to have this time with them both! :)
Great video as always. Enjoy your time with your Dad, I wish my dad was still alive, so I could take him out on my boat.
Thank you and time goes way too fast and our loved ones are gone too soon. I wish your dad was around to enjoy trips on your boat as well. 🙏
Great video, having your son and dad with you is a true blessing !
So glad you enjoyed it, and truly a blessing to have this time with them. :)

So glad you enjoyed it! Fair winds from the Gulf Islands!
I was born and raised on lower Vancouver Island and you always find places I have not seen or sometimes even heard of to see and record with your artistic eye! Todd Inlet’s industrial past shown on a rainy and dreary day - who would have guessed? Wonderful!
So glad that you enjoy seeing some new places through our lens! Sometimes the rainy and misty days make the best moments. :)
87 and no glasses or walker....looking good for you

I cherish every moment with them both and so sorry to hear about your dad. My daughter is doing well also and wished that she was able to have made the trip this time.
I've heard it said that a sailor never says where he's going until he gets there 😂
True! :)
Great genes!
and great times making great memories. :)
Great photography!
Thank you! :)
🙂
Thnks
You are welcome and glad you enjoyed it. :)
Very nice again! I wounder, do you use a filter for the camera, the sky is so blue?
Thank you and no filters used, just use the camera on manual settings to try and get the best result. :)

Excellent video but too much detail(7.8 miles to Conover Cove - who cares) and please reduce the full face coverage while you’re narrating.
