Flew the Baron up to Grand Rapids in September of '98 to attend a conference and spent a very pleasant Sunday afternoon wandering around the river waterfront of Grand Haven and having a relaxing lunch with friends and colleagues at a waterside place I now can't remember. Lovely city on Lake Michigan. And I never, never rushed the aircraft mechanics.
Grand Haven is a fun town!
Ok....I've binged watched all day on this rainy afternoon in West Central Arkansas. I too just found out about the Great Loop after being around boats my whole life here on the beautiful lakes in the Ouachitas. My wife and I are in discussions now about how to make this happen! You and the wife are giving us encouragement and hope. Thanks! Now lets get going! I'll be living vicariously onboard with ya'll. Keep up the great work!
Wow! Thank you so much! That means a lot. I wish you the very best! Hope to see you out there soon!😊👍🛥
Looks like Barrett did a great job, I love the camper canvas on the cockpit. I just can’t wait to hit the Loop maybe we will run into you on the loop. Enjoy the Ride- Bell
Thank you!❤️ Thank you for watching we really appreciate it!
Hello from Az. I have been dreaming of doing the loop for a couple years. Just binge watched all your videos. Can't wait for you to head out on the loop and post some more. Good luck.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!😊
Barrett...Is that a smile I see ? You've got a great wife & a good boat. LG😅. Do you have a water intake filter? A color coded hose with a filter between the dock & the boat. A pool test kit for your fresh water tank. 🦜
Funny you should ask! We just got our fresh water test kit today! We do have in line filters for dock water and freshwater fill. Upcoming episode we will show you our Acuva water sterilizer! Use UV light to kill bacteria in the water! It's really cool!
You need to calibrate the auto pilot
Thank you! Yes you are correct...more to come on that in the next episode! Stay tuned. Thank you for watching and commenting we really appreciate it!😀
OH... tropical storm Philippe may bring snow to the Great Lakes. When are you leaving ? 🦜
Leaving in a few days! The winds are starting now. 9 foot plus waves for a few days then when it passes we will leave. Thank you so much for watching and the helpful info!
Hi guys I’ve just about binged my way through your channel and will definitely follow along your journey,we’re from Perth Western Australia about as far away from you on earth as can get and we unfortunately don’t have huge lakes like you,I’m wondering why you didn’t go lithium batteries to get full use out of your 800 amps and especially with a high amp alternator which would benefit lithium than AGM batteries for quick charging anyway it’s a beautiful boat and hope you have a trip of a lifetime cheers
Wow! Australia!? Definitely on my list of places to visit. I get asked this a lot. I chose AGM as a short term power source. I am hoping that by the time I need to replace them that Sodium Ion battery technology will be available to consumers. It's something I am really interested in. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! We appreciate it!👍😀
One correction 3000watt inverter, not amps.
Correct! I knew when I was rattling off specs I would screw up something! 😊 you for commenting!
Not sure if you figured out the auto pilot problem yet but make sure you didn't place anything metal around your heading sensor (system's compass)
@@captainrosie6738 Thank you! We were able to re-calibrate it, it worked fine. Now it is acting up again. It will maintain tracking but it is 30deg to 40 deg offset depending on the heading. We have moved everything metal or electronic away from the head unit. I am down to 2 options...1 relocate the head unit(EV1) or try a new one...UGH! $$$....Thank you for this suggestion! And thanks for commenting!😀
