My favourite sailing channel by miles been watching for years , you guys are the best and Sierra’s learning more and more every sail from Billy, you’re both awesome, stay safe 🇬🇧Graham
You are like a soap opera without the drama. I love that. Just, when I think I haven't heard from Billy in a while he comes through. Giving the sailing experience. It helps me remember how much I love sailing. Sierra is such a compliment to you Billy. You have grown the channel together as well as your lives. I really only watch for the Jetty content. 🏴☠😊
Lives well lived and you're so young! All good Tula crew and the hard part makes the fun part much more fun knowing you did what needed doing. You're living an ideal and exemplary life and have a great attitude. If we were your parents, we would be very proud of you both.
I just discovered your channel and have been binge-watching all your videos. It's a bit challenging to keep track of the order without numbering, but I love them regardless. God bless You Two Always. Hugs.
Thanks for explaining your crossing details. I winced when you said seas were not too choppy. Thought that would bring on 30kn winds! 😮 Jetty looked so happy to see land as you were going through the inlet. My blood pressure went sky high watching your docking. I hate when wind, tide, current, slip location work against me. When Sierra handed the stern line off I finally exhaled and realized I had been holding my breath. Whew!
I have watched all of your videos. Each one gets better and better. This was the best. I have had my share of scary sailboat docking with my wife. I could feel the tension in this episode. Way to go. I think you both did great. You work very well together. Forgiving the other after a tense moment is the key to staying together. Also way to go Billy for admitting your wife was right!!
Poor jetty how to find a spot on all those rocks to relieve herself. She deserved the better, LOL. It would have been great to see more of your families enjoying your new boat. I guess I always love the chaos when friends come aboard.
We hate haul outs!!! We have a ketch so always had to back in and that made it so much harder. Great job!!! Next time listen to your wife!! She was on the money with lifting the dinghy!!!
Good Day! I'm just popping in to say I just found you and absolutely love you both. The most beautiful and handsome couple on the water!!! GOD Bless You Both Always! Hugs.
Nice job as always. My boat is next door in RBM. I’ve been to CB a few times. Last time same kind of weather but no rain. Stern in on a 70’ is no fun. My son and I were removing the davit and having all seals replaced in FLL. Stay safe and enjoy the ride. 😅
Hi guys, wow what a journey docking I was nervous for you guys and I wasn’t even on the boat/yacht/catamaran. Anyway, hopefully they fix up all your issues. Love the videos keep up the good work keep loving each other even through the stressful times Cliff from Australia
Wow - with those cross winds I would have bailed on that one - especially when the gell coat guys called off for the rain 🙃 Beautiful Bahamas - I will sail there one day for sure!
You got there in the end🎉. I was so happy to see storm gear in bright colours being worn. I dont understand cruisers with black or dark blue storm gear….if I go overboard i know i want best chance of being seen. Enjoy yr landtime and great coffees
Don't feel that you're alone. A certain high profile Seawind in the far east has exactly the same squeaking floor boards [cabin sole panels] which they don't seem bothered about. On the first commissioning day they did it every time walking up/down the starboard hull sole.
Would you have been better to motor across the dock end handing first the bow line then the stern to the dockhands then pivot on the bow spring and let them hold you to windward side while you come in? Assuming stern line is long enough.. good vid, thanks for sharing.
Nature is feisty today. Another news article showed a tornado wrecking a small town in Iowa. A long haul truck drove into a tornado. The truck landed on its side.
I’m confused ! If you look around the boat they have lots of things which are loose - IF they are heading into stormy weather one normally makes sure everything is fixed !
Irony ! Whne I viewed this video first from FB link and then later on UA-cam I found it humorus and ironic. You may ask why I will tell you. I had watch a few weeks ago the Reels you (Sierra) had posted regarding your attemp at securing Insurance with all the agrevation and delimea's. Much to my surprise when viewing this Video "PERFECT Gulf Stream crossing Into the WORST haul out Conditions EVER" the UA-cam opening posted an AD. The was an Ad for Insurance and how the Insurance Company was there for all of your needs. "Progressive" was the Insurance Company advertised . So like I said how Ironic and of course humorous. Entertaing video on your part interesting the blimishes in the top coat. aloha have a great day.
3rd Yep, I also really like Chipotle but I don't get it all that much due to the price. If I want that taste than I make it at home and save. That way I can afford to get a boat and cruise like what your doing.
@24:18 'so stressful' ! Well, for major stress relief I recommend watching the winner of Norway's Got Talent 2014 . . . . . in particular the four songs she sang which gave her the win. . . . . . ! ! (The 'cuteness factor' doesn't hurt either !) After watching this tell me if there is any 'stress' remaining? take care, rh
So the boat manufacturer did not follow the instructions provided by the flooring manufacturer for the allowable deviation of the substrate. All flooring manufacturers list how much substrate deviation is allowable. Most of those solid core plank floors are fine with a 1/8" of deviation and any more will result in joint awperation.
It never hurts to ask for someone to jump aboard and be an extra deckhand when you are doing the hard things. You can probably find a cool after market rub rail for a few thousand more than you are willing tp pay.
Hey girl, been watching you guys for a long time and thank you so much for your content. I’m saying this out of love you really should be wearing a hat all the time. You’re probably *my best estimation* is that you’re probably at least quadrupling your son exposure because of the reflection of the water. It’s kind of like skiers and so you’re not just getting the normal amount of sun you’re getting a lot more. Right now you’re really young and so your skin is still looking really great however, best case scenario in 10 to 20 years you’re gonna look like the wrinkliest lady alive covered in sun spots and worst case scenario gonna be covered in melanoma.
What a terrible haulout slip! No wonder you hit the side. There are no fender boards between the pilings! (Yes, I realize that normally we refer to fender boards laying across two or more fenders on a boat, but they also reference the planks that are mounted to pilings for the same purpose.) Without those planks, there is no way to line up fenders on your boat with the pilings - especially in choppy conditions. I don’t think I’ve seen a haulout slip like that without either planks, or a floating dock at its base to secure to. What a crap haulout slip! That’s not on you guys. Most boaters don’t carry a bunch of fender boards unless they do a lot of locks. Also, sorry to see all the warranty issues you’ve had. I like some aspects of Seawind, but they lose me with a couple design issues and starting to question their QA. Best wishes on the repairs. Fair winds kids! 😊
Their videos are usually a month behind If you noticed they said they left the day after Christmas and was out for 3 months that would put them back around March

The true sign of a good captain...knowing when to back out and reset. Nice work.

you two have a great life together LOVE THE CHANNEL
16:35 good Dad🎉
Billy, please listen to your wife. She's one smart cookie. 🍪
Good job staying calm. 👏
Thanks for sharing.
Wow that was a fast season down south. Have a safe summer.
I bet you weren’t expecting the chill when you got home. 😮
Lots of stress to get hauled out! Glad no one was hurt!
Thanks guys welcome home, as usual GO JETTY GIRL. 👍🏻💕🐾🍖

OMG! Bananas on the boat!
Wind , rain and currents. I think yall did an excellent job.
You are amazing girl!!! You’re the admiral, he’s only the captain 🧑✈️. I love Jetty too!
Been watchin you guys for several years, so glad you've finally stepped up on the fish game.
Now you need to learn to identify the fish better.
6/10/24 - Good luck guys while your in port. Hope all your repairs goes well.
I have watched all of your videos. Each one gets better and better. This was the best. I have had my share of scary sailboat docking with my wife. I could feel the tension in this episode. Way to go.

Welcome home from the Bahamas. After boat work done - new boat again.😃
Enjoying family is always good 👍.
Remember to VOTE.
💙🇺🇸💚👍😇
Scary music when you docked. Made it sound like you were crunching sound like you're crunching the pier.😂
It's great to see all the fun ya'll had in the Bahamas!
Poor jetty how to find a spot on all those rocks to relieve herself. She deserved the better, LOL. It would have been great to see more of your families enjoying your new boat. I guess I always love the chaos when friends come aboard.
Been following you guy for over 2 years, and this little lady makes the best 1st mate, God Bless !!
We hate haul outs!!! We have a ketch so always had to back in and that made it so much harder. Great job!!! Next time listen to your wife!! She was on the money with lifting the dinghy!!!
You're right - Great answer Billy!!
I could feel your stress. Its not easy. Thank you
You guys have provided awesome vid well done
❤love the fishing guys
you guys are awesome! I effin love your channel and your adventures....Cheers
Ever thought about using vac bags to keep clothes, sheets, towels, etc? It saves a lot of space. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing. Enjoy.
Good Day! I'm just popping in to say I just found you and absolutely love you both. The most beautiful and handsome couple on the water!!! GOD Bless You Both Always! Hugs.
You just made our day! Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for all the stories.🇳🇱
Keep up the great work, I really enjoy the videos.
I guess it wasn't the best haul out in the world but it was successful. Once the work is done it back to wherever. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Hi guys, wow what a journey docking I was nervous for you guys and I wasn’t even on the boat/yacht/catamaran. Anyway, hopefully they fix up all your issues. Love the videos keep up the good work keep loving each other even through the stressful times Cliff from Australia
Welcome Home. Florida checking in.
Wow that much gel coat coming loose? I wonder how much will be coming up and peeling later on not good
Was just thinking; maybe you should get bigger fenders if you have a design issue with the gutters hitting.
Wow - with those cross winds I would have bailed on that one - especially when the gell coat guys called off for the rain 🙃 Beautiful Bahamas - I will sail there one day for sure!
Billy😊you did great due to the weather conditions🌬
Great Job Billy! I know that stress.....
You got there in the end🎉. I was so happy to see storm gear in bright colours being worn. I dont understand cruisers with black or dark blue storm gear….if I go overboard i know i want best chance of being seen. Enjoy yr landtime and great coffees
Billy wants to excel as a sailor and is very hard on himself when he makes a mistake or bad call. As for Sierra, wow!!! .,what a cleaner😂😂😂
If new boats are anything like new motorhomes. Buy enjoy fix enjoy fix enjoy fix. After 2 or three rotation you get the thing you bought.
Don’t purge winter clothes,get vacuum seal bags,it enables you to keep them and save 80% of the needle storage space.

Good tip!
Coffee ☕️ chipotle…what about your MOM 😮😂
Great job despite the wind!!! The main thing is your still talking ❤😅
Awesome video
That was interesting
"Practice" 😂
Its funny you still have a Washington registration on your car.
That was exciting but Billy is a sailor and jetty is a boat girl
Great job. Hopefully youll be back on the water soon.
She needs a hug.
Another great vid guys! So when the pacific crossing gonna happen🤙🤙
Great video!
That flag is epic guys!👍🏼✌🏼
Sun screen Sierra!
Certainly high stress but would never know watching your demeanor. Hope you get your weather window for your southern voyage soon.
Wow, we are prepairing to sail to Alanya
"Coulda' went"...???? Billy!!
Where did you video about the Nassau Coast Guard stopping you go?
Nature is feisty today. Another news article showed a tornado wrecking a small town in Iowa. A long haul truck drove into a tornado. The truck landed on its side.
WoW still have Washington license plates. Seems it would be MUCH cheaper in Florida. Nice boat parking 🎉
I’m confused ! If you look around the boat they have lots of things which are loose - IF they are heading into stormy weather one normally makes sure everything is fixed !
You're hired ! LOL
Seawind 1170 and Sailing Ruby Rose Seawind 1370 a lot of problems for all that money and not little ones
What kind of starlink mount do you use?? Looking for options
Where did you get that bathing suit top! I love it
wow you got a lot of sun...

Do you think you would ever buy another brand new boat?😮
Live and learn. Having the dinghy down was a dumb idea. Let me guess. Some of the incorrect work was done at the Bridgeport, CT marina?
What brand of swim suit are you wearing at 13 min mark? It looks great and comfortable!
Sporty girl apparel :) thanks for asking!
Where are you guys? We are on a boat in the Exumas and would love to ride by and wave hi of we are close,

What model were the shades Billy was wearing?
Hobie Mojo :) use code Tula20 for 20% off ! Thanks for asking :)
what kind of containers are those in your fridge. The orange and blue
Stashed bags :)
amzn.to/4ar5OKc
Thanks for asking!
@@Tulasendlesssummer thanks
@@Tulasendlesssummer how long do they last. A bit more pricey than I expected
I love seeing Jetty...but hate seeing her getting older. Why can't dogs have the same life span as humans.
She is very pretty. Does anyone know what kind of dog she is? Or at least link to a vid where they discuss it.
Yes our dog gos should live at least 30 years. 🐶
Update…I found their video about Living on a Boat with a Dog, and I’m happy to report that Jetty is an Australian Cattle Dog.
So the boat manufacturer did not follow the instructions provided by the flooring manufacturer for the allowable deviation of the substrate.

You really need to watch how you tan with your mask/sunglasses on..... you have a reverse raccoon tan!!! Thanks bahamas!!!!
It never hurts to ask for someone to jump aboard and be an extra deckhand when you are doing the hard things. You can probably find a cool after market rub rail for a few thousand more than you are willing tp pay.
Nice call, ask for help with a extra person

Hey Billy ,do you have ac on that boat ?
Not installed yet but we officially have the unit!! Whoop whoop!
❤
Will you go travel the world?
We hope to travel most of it by the time we don’t move as well anymore ❤️

Seems wicked disappointing there's so many warranty issues for a brand new boat 👎
You need to see sailing La Vagabonde new trimaran’s porformance. It goes faster than the wind speed.
My
ALWAYS get rub rails……..I understand it’s an option, but…………
It was not an option 🫣
💙🆒+💙🆒=2🆒!!💙💙😇
And nine months later triplets…
"be back in a month" ?? its May 21st, almost hurricane season. I'm surprised your insurance will allow that.
Their videos are usually a month behind
If you noticed they said they left the day after Christmas and was out for 3 months that would put them back around March
Their videos are a couple months behind real time, I’m sure their plan is to head to the Bahamas, then south towards Granada and out of Hurricane zone
🔱 Billy Sierra n Jetty:
want to send a book gift
where may we send?
Also: your fan base would LOVE 40 min Vlogs 🛳️
Bikini Shots :)
