Crisis Averted: Surviving 6 Days on the Open Ocean - Episode 85
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лис 2022
- With 280 nautical miles to go during our 6 day straight sail from Huatulco to Barre de Navidad, life on the ocean seems pretty good. But things can change pretty quickly and with a tropical storm chasing us down and squally weather we add a bit of excitement to our passage. We get into trouble with our spinnaker for the first time and Gary has to jump overboard.

For anyone reading my comment... Brooke and Gary are just as sweet in person as they are on camera. They're really great people.
You must know them obviously, they seem like legit great people, hope to meet them someday in my travels.
@@donaldwatson554 yes I met them in Annapolis at the fall boat show.
Thank you, Larry! It was so nice to meet you at the show! Hope to cross paths again someday!
@@SailingOneLife I'm sure we will!
I am an armchair sailor, living vicariously through watching sailing channels. I always wanted and actually planned to sail "some day" but the opportunity has gone by. I find the key to success for sailing channels is the people involved have to be likable and we must get interested in their lives so we care. You guys are doing a great job!!
Thank you very much, Gil Core! Happy to hear you are enjoying our channel. ⛵🎣
Between the spinnaker, the birds wanting to be new crew members, and getting a little 'loopy at sea' looks like it was a successful passage. Can't wait to learn what the oil pressure gauge issue is. Gary will figure it out now that he is in port! Kudos to Brook's new bathing suit. 👍🏻
Thanks, Sam! Those birds were so obnoxious! But also gave us some entertainment! Six days at sea gives you all the feels - moments of bliss and moments of misery. 😂
A sailor lives and dreams in the divide between wind and sea, from under the sail to under the ground. Amen. Good video.
Hey Tim! So true! Hope you have a great holiday!
I am enamored with you two, I watch several sailing channels as well as yours, but I feel you two have a special chemistry that becomes addicting. I find myself pulling for you at every twist and turn.... what an adventure you are on. You two are putting the work in to become true seasoned sailors and these experiences will pay dividends in both the near and distant futures. Great to see such a talented, logical, and methodical team conquer this thing we call sailing. Keep up the great work and thank you for inviting us into your world.
Hi Glenn! Thank you so much for such a nice comment. We really appreciate it and we are happy to share our videos with you.
You two and your can-do attitude is absolutely great. Pizza while underway ! Looked great too. I'm also amazed at your skills that you've achieved. It seems like the "I'd rather try and fail than fail to try" lives in other peoples lives also. Great job !
Thanks, Randy! We really appreciate that!
We all learn something new in situations! You bring that knowledge with you for the next time 😃☺️ I have such a bunch respect for you guys. Enjoy it to the fullest
Ah thank you so much! We really appreciate that. We make mistakes and learn something all the time. That's how we grow!
Wonderful video. You guys are truly Sailors. Depicted some of the real life situations at sea. Could watch you for hours upon hours.
Thank you so much. We appreciate it!
When the wind is up, you have to blanket the spinnaker with the main, you can’t just muscle it into collapsing with the snuffer. Once it is in the lee of the main, it will collapse sufficiently that you can snuff it.
You’re not the only ones who needed to learn this lesson. Been there, done that; and when I screwed up, the result was a ruined spinnaker pole.
Ah a ruined pole?! That's a real bummer. Yep, we knew it would happen sometime. Especially since we are new to using the spinnaker. Thanks for the advice! We hope to purchase a pole soon!
@@SailingOneLife I wouldn’t bother with a spinnaker pole on a cruising boat - they’re really only worth it on racing boats. A bowsprit, on the other hand, will allow you to sail sufficiently deep with an asymmetrical chute, and with far less hassle than a spinnaker pole.
Thanks for inviting me to crew with you from my LazyBoy recliner. It was a memorable passage.
Thanks for coming along with us, Pete! We always enjoy sharing our journey with you. It was so nice to meet you and Nancy! 💗
a journey around the ocean that is very challenging and full of sensational success is always ladies and gentlemen
Great video, guys! I really enjoy how you weave the serene moments in with the challenging ones. Your respect and admiration of each other is inspiring!
Hey Bob! Thank you for such a kind comment! We appreciate it!
Great you got some speed. Omg, that was crazy with the spinnaker, great job getting it sorted. Well done Gary, yatzee champion lol. Lovely sunset. Wow, you guys have certainly been through the wringer. Ooh that pizza looks lovely, looks like I'm having pizza tonight! Lol. That was one hell of a sail, well done for getting through it all and dropping anchor. Great vlog :)
Thanks guys for posting this sea trip. I was relieved to see land and I’m sitting in the middle of 5 acres of north Florida woods.
I can’t imagine how that must feel.
Always watch Sailing One Life first before any others. Really enjoy your chemistry between the two of you. Safe travels and good sails.
Hey Dennis! Thanks for coming along on this sail with us! Seeing land after several days at sea is always refreshing. We appreciate the good vibes!
Well, that was fun ‼️ You both did great handling the issues that arouse. Gary is a great captain, and Broke, you are a real champ. Love you guys. Fabulous team. ✨🌊💨⛵️🏝👙🌞✨
Thank you so much, Richard! 👙☀️💜🍻⛵
Such a cute couple, much respect for you two , just travel safe!
Thank you so much, Donald!
Ratings double if Brooke shows a little more skin. I'll keep watching either way. Gary you rock as well. Keep up the good work you two.
Love ya guys♡
Thanks, Jessie! Glad your enjoying our videos! Hope you have a great holiday! Cheers!
It’s funny to the comment below, as I’d say I have a good sense of character, and I was thinking the same thing, that I can only imagine how awesome and adorable they are in person, as their vids say it all. They are so great together and the vids they create make me wanting not only to learn how to sail, so one day I can hopefully meet that special lady to pack it all in and sail the world.. epic adventures… all the best Brooke and Gary. :) keep the great vids coming and stay safe. :)
Hi there! Thank you for such a kind comment! We really enjoy making the videos to share with everyone and it makes us happy to hear when others are enjoying them too! Thank you for the well wishes! More vids coming your way!
I like how both of u r so smiley and optimistic all the time. I wish all the best for u.
Thank you, Jonas! We try to stay positive and keep focused on the good things!
You two are a great team 🤗great episode with a lot of action!!!Gary you sure keep your cool under pressure and Brooke you’re awesome as well!!I always feel good after watching sailing One Life 😊love you two thanks for all your hard work sharing with all of us 😍
Thanks Mark! We enjoy sharing our journey with you and we always appreciate your comments! 💗
Another great vid....showing true cruising...not always smooth sailing..things happen...and sometimes you just have to jump into that damn water to fix something..lol...
Thanks, Peter! The true ups and downs of sailing life! Cheers!
Good recovery, lessons learned, great video
Thanks, Dennis! We learn something every day out here!
You two are amazing :)
Aw thank you! 🥰
That was some pretty impresive pizza making skills Gary! I was expecting you to wipe out a freezer pizza but nope he kicked it from scratch! I hope Brook appreciates what a catch you are! I know you appreciate all that she brings to the relationship! You guys are very great together and fun to watch! 73 Glen
Hey Glen! You bet, I am certainly thankful to have the most amazing adventure partner, responsible captain, awesome engineer.....and the best PIZZA MAKER ever! Seems like we need more passage pizza during our sails! Hope you have a great holiday!
Gangster action…bravo😝
Thanks for the new episode! Glad I found your channel.
Thanks for joining us on this journey, Paul!
Congratulations on a successful passage! Thanks for a great video and showing us the good and not so good. That's so important to regroup after the fact and figure out what worked and what didn't so that going forward there are lessons learned.
Enjoyed meeting you at Annapolis Sailboat Show.
Thanks, Kim! It was so nice to meet you too! We appreciate you supporting us out here on this journey!
Another very well done sail and film. Hope to see another soon.
Thank you!
Very enjoyable video thankyou great content and very reall which makes a big difference
Hey Matt! Thank you! Glad you are enjoying our channel!
Well that was an exciting trip! You guys did great!
Thank you! We appreciate your comment! ⛵⛵
Love it please keep it coming
Thanks, Chase! Happy to hear you are enjoying our videos! Cheers!
Great video and adventure. It was fun tracking y'all live while you made this long sail outrunning the hurricane!
Hey Joe! Hope all is well! We need to still need to hear about your trip to Mexico!
Outstanding 👍👍👍. WOW, GREAT JOB. That’s some great sailing.
Thanks, Trent! That was definitely a memorable sail for us! Happy we are able to share it with you!
Wooo, that was intense with the spinnaker...nice job though! Seems to me that you did handle it well; it's given that it'll rarely or ever be perfect. At the end of the day, you got the job done as a team and that's all that matters. I like the fact that you heave to as a mitigation tactic. I don't see that many others doing this. Cheers guys!
OK guys, nothing for three weeks. I'm a worry wart, hope all is well, and you are enjoying yourselves in some safe harbor. looking forward to your next episode.
Hey Bruce! Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving! We are safe and sound. We are actually back in the US for a visit, we had Thanksgiving with Gary's family in NY. Don't worry One Life is waiting patiently for us to get back to Mexico. More videos coming soon! Thanks for checking on us!
An interesting passage for sure, glad all went well, even with the those few issues noted.
Thanks, Jerry!! It's always an adventure! 😂
Those darn spinnies!! One min it's pure bliss the next you're in the drink yanking on sheets 😂
😂😂 Can't wait to get our Sunchill tied off the back of One Life! ☀️👙
Another lovely sail other than the spinnaker going crazy and getting stuck under your boat, Gary having to get it released, Brooke not wearing a life jacket when running up to help Gary with the spinnaker, and the pancakes looking more like frogs ears, it was a groovy, relaxing trip. Oh' yeah, I did like the birds joining your crew. It looked like you needed some help.
Thanks, MA! Ha yes we certainly could've used some extra crew....birds or humans! 😂
Great work Brooke managing to keep filming whilst trying to help try retrieve the spinnaker line. Spinnakers just need a calm approach and methodical thinking which you both did well. Every Time you fly it its going to be different. Overall a successful passage.
Thanks, Ian! Sometimes it's hard to film during moments like these. I appreciate you noticing!
Great video to show your kids - we were cool!
Thanks, Terry!
I liked how the bird's were trying to help Gary with the rope. lol
Haha yeah those boobies were all over the place!
Great job guys 🍻
Thank you! ⛵🍻🤙💜
Great video guys!! ❤
Glad you liked it!!
Great episode
Thanks Soma!
Not the first time I have heard "BOOBIES" cried in vane!! Old Glory is looking pretty haggard too, Brooke. What a crazy spinnaker ordeal but nicely done. I am still in Delaware packing up the house for settlement on 12/1, then off to OBX!! Safe travels to you and good luck. Ed
Hey Ed! Yep, a new flag is on order! Wow, sounds like things are falling into place for you. We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and good luck on your upcoming solo sail! We will be waiting to hear how everything goes.
great show
Thanks, Richard! Happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Awesome video. Ya'll be safe
Thanks, William!
Fantastic ♥️⛵️🇨🇦🍻
Thanks Phil! ⛵🍻
Haven’t heard from you guys in a while. Hope all is well. Or just having a lot of fun.
Hey Michael! We working on our next video now. Hope to have it finished by the weekend! Thanks for checking on us!
Loved the video. Glad u guys made it safe. Enjoy the new adventures to come. P.S. the pizza looked amazing 🤣❤🙌🏼
Thanks, Jorge! The pizza was amazing!! Gary is definitely going to need to make more passage pizza!
Hey Brook and Gary, haven't seen you in a while hope you are home for Christmas! I just saw you on a Delos vid as you were making and eating pizza on Delos. I am still in Delaware, decided to put off the trip south until the Spring. With selling our house and the holidays I just ran out of time. Wanted to wish you both a very Merry Christmas and look forward to your next vids. Ed
Ah probably a good idea to delay your trip until Spring. It would probably be a pretty cold sail during this time of year! Hope you have a great Christmas! We look forward to sharing more adventures in the New Year! Cheers, Ed!
The birds are wild
They were so fun to watch!
You guys should watch the “sailing yacht Florence” episode on spinnaker flying, really good stuff. You guys are awesome, we love watching your weekly vids.
Hey Mike! We've watched their Spinnaker episode, good stuff. We enjoy their channel as well!
Hey there,
Just wanted to let you know that i just subscribed. Ill take a minute to share why.
I've always fantasized of living on a boat. A Power boat. Although I've chosen to start my new life on a power boat, i always find myself watching the sailing channels. Let's be honest.. It's simply just waay more romantic.
So, the reason i subscribed to your channel after the one video, all be it a long a$& video (lol), i kept looking at the time left because I was dreading for it to end! I read a handful of comments, and know my 1st impression was spot on.... The reason is your attitudes. Smiles for miles. , Absolutely felt you were real. Genuinely nice people. When i come in from a hard day, i can sit down to an episode and relax.
I am waiting on a survey to close on my new home and soon ill be on water. 🤞🙏.
If you make it to the Destin Fl. Area, maybe we will run into each other. Lol.. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Take care.
Hey Motomark! We are happy to hear you are enjoying our channel! Thank you for subscribing and joining us on this adventure. We hope your survey went well and we hope to catch you on the water one day! Good luck on your journey! Cheers~B&G
I am so proud of you two! I have finally caught up on your videos. Thank Bill and Grace for me finding you. You started as total sailing novices and are now seasoned sailors. I wish Brooke had a sister, not interested in her brother. 😂 Don't know if you know, Hawksbill restaurant at Harbor Town is closed, supposedly because of a huge rent increase. Gonna miss their Bloody Mary's.
Regarding your extreme healing from previous episodes. I have watched all of your videos. I know your headsail is old, but it looks like your center of effort is really high on your headsails. I'm not there, so... Ask Brian and Karin #S/V Delos or Bill and Grace #S/V Calico Skies to take a look, or ask a professional rigger. Sometimes people set their furler too high because it makes for a prettier sail and to prevent chaffing. Before you guys leave Puerto Penasco check this out.
Otherwise, from Merritt Island, Hope you all are safe and well, Fair Winds...
Hey There! Ah thank you for stopping and checking out our channel! Bill and Grace are the best. We love buddy boating with them. So crazy you are in Merritt Island. We kept One Life there for 6 months before we sailed away. Harbortown is a great marina!
Thanks for the info on our headsail we will ask Bill and Brian about it.
Cheers! Brooke & Gary
@@SailingOneLife Man! I hate auto-correct. "Heeling"
Yep! Merritt Island! My boat is west on the Barge Canal at Cape Crossing. I use to have a boat in Puerto Vallarta, so know where you guys are cruising. Don't know where you all are going next, but make the Marquesas Islands a definite. Really enjoy seeing you, Calico Skies and Delos buddy boating. It would be very cool if you collaborated more.
Fair winds...
That's was a lot-way to go keeping such a "can do tude." !!!
Thanks Molly! Love you! 💗
🙏🏻...
Oh, your killing me with that pizza...had to run to Domino's...🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Ha somehow I missed this comment! Hope you enjoyed your Domino's! Gary makes killer pizza! Have a great holiday!
I hope you are ok guys. I haven’t see you in the past 4 weeks. Wish you Merry Christmas
Hey Raul! Thank you for the Christmas wishes! We are working on our next video and hope to have it out soon! Cheers!
The way to a wommans heart is true here belly. Stay in the kitchen Sir : )
Pizza party for the win!
@@SailingOneLife Pizza dos not do it Sir. That is just puuure lasiness.
Gary killed it making the pizza 🍕nicely done! 🙌 Now Brooke, how did you manage to kill the pancakes 😫🥞? ? 🤭😂🤭😂
Hahah the pancakes stuck to the pan....😫 Gary is a pizza making legend!
You are my favorite sailing channel. Thanks for sharing your new video! Have either of you ever tried the stone game Mancala?
Ah thank you very much! 🥰
Hes right it was day 4 at 11:00 but he let it go. ;)
😂 I think you are both wrong
FLORIDA 🏖️⛱️
🌞💜
The bird with the line lol! What the heck?! Also nice shirt 😉 why didn’t we make a Gary za in Maryland 😩
🤣 miss youuuuuu!
You must add a diesel fungicide to your fuel to prevent that stuff from growing the fungus robes your engine of power & milage
Thanks, Ron! We didn't have any at the time but we bought some later on and added it.
Good job Gary on Yahtzee 🤣😜
Hey now!! 😂😂 He beat me multiple rounds. I need to step up my game!
@@SailingOneLife ya you do! 🤣 Then show him up on your fishing skills! 😜😂
Seems like a hectic passage indeed. Have you figured out what's going on with the engine oil pressure? Definitely put a mechanical pressure gauge on a Tee fitting near the engine in addition to the existing one. On our bus I'm planning to have the factory gauges refurbished and add some additional mechanical gauges at the engine bay to make sure gauges agree if there seems to be an issue. The joys of diesel ownership.
Hey Larry! Yep, once we were anchored o was able to troubleshoot a bit more. Luckily, the sender for our generator and engine are the same so I swapped them and sure enough, just a bad sender! While back in the US I ordered an analog pressure gauge and a new sender to take back to One Life!

@@SailingOneLife I'm glad it was just the sender instead of an oil pump or other engine malfunction!
Yes 100%! That could have set us back a bit!
Not a criticism, personally I'd get rid of that spinnaker sock and wool it. When raising and lowering, unfurl the headsail and that will create a windshadow that makes the kite much more manageable.
Our headsail and spinnaker use the same sheet routing and blocks into the primary cockpit winches. Nature of the center cockpit design of the boat. It would take a lot of expensive modifications and custom blocks to make it possible to fly both at the same time, so for now it's gotta be one or the other.
Didn’t want this video to end! So glad you handled the spinnaker issue and the squalls with the boobies help The pizza looked delicious! Look forward to more adventures
Thanks, Mom! 💗
Passage was a success.. just a quick question. When the squall hit, why you had the genoa heavily reefed instead of using the staysail?
Hey there! Thanks for the comment. I (Brooke) was on watch during this time. Since the Genoa was already out, I opted to start with it heavily reefed and see how the boat handled it from there. I could have furled it all the way in and put out the stay sail but we seemed pretty balanced with the reefed Genoa.
If U have a towel on the countertop ur pans will be stable.
Ah we will give that a try!
Ok. Why do those spinnaker socks get jammed? I've seen a few do that. How can jamming be prevented? And the jammed halyard clutch too, why did that happen?
A snuffer is not meant to force a spinnaker to collapse. In light winds, you can douse a spinnaker by just pulling the snuffer over it, but that won’t work in heavier winds. Instead, you have to first take a fairly direct downwind course and then sheet in the spinnaker in the lee of the mainsail (after easing the pole all the way forward if you are not using an asymmetrical chute tacked to the bow.) With the spinnaker blanketed by the main, it will collapse on its own, allowing you to pull the snuffer over it. In short, a snuffer won’t work under significant load, so you’ve first got to get rid of the wind load that is trying to keep the spinnaker inflated.
We often fly the asymmetrical by itself without the main, and we have seen extremely experienced world-cruisers do the same. So, in these situations, we usually just release the tack line to unload the spinnaker. The sock we have is a pretty old and sub-par design, and has a thin plastic rod bent into a ring at the bottom. This sometimes allows the spinnaker to wrap around the thin ring and jam up, as it did in this case. A new sock with a nice fiberglass cone at the bottom is on our wish-list.
@@SailingOneLife A lot of experienced cruisers do things that I’ll call lazy when I am feeling charitable, dumb when I’m not. Sailing extremely unbalanced with just a headsail is one of them. There is no good reason to give up the additional boat speed and control that using your main will provide - not to mention better crew comfort and rig support. Just because you see someone else do something, that doesn’t mean that is a good idea. Sometimes it just means that they have been fortunate enough to not run into trouble from their bad practices for long enough that they can no longer recognize their mistakes.
As for snuffers, not even the best ones in brand new condition will allow you to successfully force them to work in a way that they were not intended to. When the wind is up beyond a certain point, you have to be able to get the spinnaker to collapse on its own, you can’t just force a snuffer over an unblanketed sail.
Before purchasing a new snuffer, you should also look into investing in a top-down, continuous line furler. While that is a more expensive option, it can be used with multiple flying sails, and is a much better means of controlling them.
Are all your passages this crazy?😮
Nah just about half of them! 🤣
QUESTION : isn't it safer to be tied to the boat with a rope in case you fall overboard,
It can really depend. If tied with a rope and you fall overboard it could also result in you being dragged through the water and drowning. 😔
Do you think you will ever venture further south to Australia? Namely Fremantle
Hey Maverick! We certainly hope so!
👍⛵🎣🌊⛱️🏖️💯
Thanks, Vincent!
Greta job where did you get your Schwag for boat and do you like quality ?
Hey Rikki! Hope you are doing great! Where are you now?? We order our swag from Printful.com so far so good!
Do you ever make sail changes alone at night...like reefing or shaking out a reef?
Hey Greg! Yep, we do! Unfortunately our camera isn't great with recording at night so we rarely capture it.
@@SailingOneLife When would you wake crew for help with a sail change?
Where would UA-cam be without clickbait titles? Was the 'crisis' was a faulty oil pressure gauge, reading too high? OK, I take it back, it was the stuck spinnaker. If you have to douse it by hand, probably better to plan ahead, open the V-berth hatch first, then just stuff the sail directly down the hole, rather than get it soaked and THEN put it down the hole.
Gary why do you make Brook do all of the watches? Know you do your share, & just Brook thinks to turn the camera on. I know you all have no control over it, but greedy UA-cam put over 1 hour of ads on this 30 minute video. I always try to play ads with the mute on but the 42 minute ad was too long for this Texan. Good story this time guys & glad you Bobbed around again.
Hey Bob! Ha yeah I tend to use the camera a bit more than Gary....but he certainly does his fair share of watches! Sorry to hear about all the ads 😫 we don't have control over how long they are etc. We appreciate you trying to watch them and support our channel but we'd rather you just skip over them and enjoy our content! 👍🍻
@@SailingOneLife Just think Thiertube is getting greedy running long ads for max $. Sadly it seems 70% are paid for with our tax $. free Solar & SS ads. Well you are pretty on the camera, but Gary does guy stuff, so good too.
I'll tell Gary you want more dude stuff! 😂 Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving, Bob! 🍻
@@SailingOneLife My wife of 43 years will likely be having surgery for cancer on or just before Thanksgiving, so I am the Turkey. She use to be a basically happy gal like you, so we like seeing you too.
What type of boat is yours?
A Nautical Development Offshore 40. We have a boat tour video you can check out to see all of it! ua-cam.com/video/au4LflqMl4A/v-deo.html
try catan
We love Catan and actually have it on the boat! We will have to give it a try sometime!
IF YOUR GAUGE AND SENSOR FOR OIL PRESSURE ARE ELECTRONIC , MUST BE FALSE CONNECTION OR FAULTY SENSOR !
YOUR ENGINE HAS A GEAR PUMP AND AS YOU INCREASE RPMS. IT INCREASE OIL PRESSURE ,TILL THE HIGH LIMIT ABOUT 65 LBS AVERAGE , IF YOUR ENGINE OIL PRESSURE FAILS ,FOR SURE YOU ALREADY LOST THAT ENGINE OR SEIZED ! SENSORS BY VIBRATION FROM DIESEL CYCLES ARE MORE VICTIMS OF DAMAGE ,AND SO ALSO ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS , TO ASSURE GOOD CONNECTORS WELD THEM WITH SILVER , ALSO CURLY THE WIRES AT ENGINE SIDE TO CREATE A VIBRATION ABSORBER , FIND A RUBBER BOOT THAT FITS AT ONE END THE SENSOR AND THE OTHER SMALL AS THE DIAMETER OF THE CABLE ,THAT WILL DEFINITELY WILL ALSO PROTECT FROM VIBRATION THE CABLE/ SENSOR CONNECTION ! SORRY TO INTRUDE , BUT DIESEL ENGINES MUST HAVE HEAVY MOTOR MOUNTS TO ABSORB 3 TIMES THE VIBRATION OF A GASOLINE ENGINE , THEREFORE THE ENGINE MOUNTS MUST BE MADE WITH INNER SPRINGS OR LIQUID FILLED ! ONE WAY TO KNOW IS RUN THE ENGINE AND IF VIBRATION TRANSMIT ALL OVER YOUR CABIN , THAT IS THE ISSUE , AND VIBRATION IS THE ENEMY OF ANYTHING HANGING OR ATTACHED TO THOSE HARMONICS CREATING PREMATURE FATIGUE !
IF THE ENGINE IS GASOLINE STILL CHECK CONNETTIONS, TEST OIL PRESSURE MUST BE NUMBER ONE PROCEDURE AT THE MARINA !
I FOLLOW YOUR ABCDS OF SAILING WITH BAD FUEL OR PUMP, OR BROKEN SAILS , WATER LEAKS , 45 KNOTS WINDS OR 10 FT. WAVES , BUT I NOTICED YOUR SKINS ARE GETTING MORE LIKE BRASS TYPE ,EXPOSSED TO MOTHER NATURE ,SUN TAN, BEER , AND MAHI !
ALWAYS GOOD VIBES , KEEP HYDRATED, AND USE LOTS OF SUN TAN LOTION , BAJA FISH TACOS ARE IN MEXICO THE BEST ! BEST OF GOOD TIMES AND WINDS OF FRIENDSHIP FROM SO .CAROLINA COAST !
Yikes.
🙃
Alright, girl, you need sunblock....lol
Funny how y'all get semi bent about how many days at sea... Took my wife to 3 different grocery stores today. One we went to twice. I was annoyed and made a joke about being at a certain store 352 days out of 365. And though I made up all the stats she wanted to argue it. I was laughing my ass off. You kids be nice to each other.
Hahaha that is fantastic! Thank you for the good vibes!

Ciaooo! Vi seguo sempre dall'italiano. Anch'io ho avuto qualche problema con lo spinnaker sulla mia barca ma poi con po di fatica ho risolto. Un caro saluto da Bergamo Italy Giovanni
Thank you, Roberto!
Good job on the pizza Garry!! GREAT now i want pizza ,it won't look that good!!
Gary is a great pizza maker!! 🤤
good night when can y'all visit Grenada I'll like to meet y'all so text me on Instagram what day y'all are coming
Hey Andrew! Unfortunately it will be awhile before we circle back around to Grenada. We are currently in Mexico but hope to get back to Grenada one day! We love it there!
