    Thank you for sharing this beautifully edited video! That was probably one of the best travel documentaries on Saba, I have seen so far.

    Back to the past: Saba Island, 2019!
    More previously unedited footage from our 2019 Caribbean season.
    There will be several more to come every Friday over the next few weeks, as we steadily cruise the rest of the Leewards, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Dominican and Turks & Caicos.

      Now that I reconsider your comment, I feel a little insulted, Peter.
      Yes, I was talking goat to the goats, but the "hopping" was clearly a horse immitation, how could you mistake it?? :)

    Beautiful underwater shots! A wise call to ferry out to Saba, that anchorage did not seem inviting :)

    • @SailCloudyBay
      @SailCloudyBay  3 роки тому +1

      Yes it certainly was! There was one yacht moored there and it was pitching around like crazy .... unfortunatly we were going so fast that I didnt get the camera out in time to record it. We would not have been able to get the dinghy in the water safely without risking huge stresses on the davits. Even if we could had sailed got there and got the dinghy in, I'm pretty sure Oana would have gotten into the dinghy in those conditions!

    That was an amazing place; a mountain in the sea. All the fish seemed to be posing for the tourists to take pictures, even the barracuda.

    Now every channel take note. This is how you make a real sailing you tube channel.
    I don't care about Susie's big bottom or Tom has a big shackle. Keep it real and the the rest of us will appreciate a hole lot more.

    • @SailCloudyBay
      @SailCloudyBay  3 роки тому

      Hmmm but I always thought it was MY bottom that attracted all the viewers? no?
      Thanks for the compliment Eric. They seem "real" because we make them as our memories, not as money-making entertainment. THe next few weeks they will get better and better ... I think. Some of our best footage to come, from Anguilla onwards.

    WOW. did either dive require mixed air (nox)?

    • @SailCloudyBay
      @SailCloudyBay  3 роки тому +1

      I think we dived with nitrox ..... we'd just been certified in Eustatia, so I'm sure we must have chosen Nox.

    It’s lovely to be watching your films again. You mentioned you were fitting out shortly and I’m wondering if you will you be sailing the Caribbean during the hurricane season? I have friends who’ve done it!

    • @SailCloudyBay
      @SailCloudyBay  3 роки тому +1

      Matt, I'm going back to the boat in 2 weeks time to check her over and do some more maintenance. We had considered sailing over the summer, but I'm pretty sure we will stick to our plan of leaving again end of hurricane season and heading south.

    • @SailCloudyBay
      @SailCloudyBay  3 роки тому +1

      Matt, I think you must have editied this comment because last evening I thought it mentioned Bahamas? Just in case you didnt already see, we did cruise the Bahamas a year later, in early 2020. There are about 12 videos of that on our channel. We were a bit challenged with our draft thre, but we did manage to get everywhere we wanted to, even if we did depart with a nicely polished keel!
