1st: As a professional mariner and as someone who used to run a sailing school, BRAVO! The best way to safely grow the sport and get more people out on the water responsibly is through ACCESSIBLE education. This is great. 2. For people complaining about Ryan & Sophie taking advantage of their experience and monetizing it… How do you expect them to keep the rum kitty full? Good on them for creating an opportunity to make money, while passing on their knowledge. Keep up the great work Ryan & Sophie!
Haha totally agree! For anyone complaining I suggest tomorrow when they head to work they tell their boss that from today forward they will work for free as monetizing on their skills or knowledge is just absurd😂😁
Great concept and a huge amount of work for sure. Feedback i would offer at first glance is to clarify on brighttrip the relationship between Part 1, part 2 etc and the chapters. When I previewed the part one cost it was not clear to me what I was getting when below there was all the chapters that you overviewed on your UA-cam channel. The only other feedback would be about offering navigation education. As there are long established institutions that provide this education it would be good to be very clear what you are offering and why people would choose what you are offering differently from these other organisations. I am sure there are clear reasons. You have made excellent UA-cam clips and I am sure this production will be equally professional and very useful to many. Thank you for bringing such great humour and class.
Yeah having the systems in the back up systems understanding the power necessary and the provisioning .sailing itself does take time and experience constantly being thrown a new scenario Learning your own boat before you take off spending time sailing in different weather conditions anchoring docking there’s definitely time involved but it’s it’s very nice to have a template to create the skills to leave your backyard , I’m sure there’s very much valuable information to get someone started on building their miles and visiting multiple countries if not the world.❤
I really like Sophie! And the best is when she talks I can turn off the sound and I still understand what she is saying. The way too exaggerated hand gestures and movements are better than the deaf-mute language! Fun fact: I never learned that language!!! 😂
All in one information source. That's great. Glad you've put this together. Have watched you off and on for years now, have really enjoyed your travels. Hope to start mine soon. Fair winds and smooth seas, Sophie.
I know this video is a year old, but might I suggest adding the link to the course in either the video description or in the comments section? A side note, I'll probably be buying the course in the next few days.
Holy cow Sophia, I did not realize that you were in the US. I was doing my best to kind of block and run interferes on that. I must have been either on vacation or out of town for that to slip past my desk... so now that you're in the US I've got it let everybody know that we need to be watching everything you do, and listening to everything you say. So it's my bad I'm in charge of these things, I must have been fishing or sailing or out of town on vacation for your name to slip past my office. So now that you're in the US I will be watching you. Very very carefully..
Glad you did this because I have seen some people are building sailboat for around the world travel that are not really appropriate for that. I love for people to have a dream about this with a more important information for doing it safely.
All ready the end!!! Throughout episodes 1 to this one, you made me laugh, cried, laugh and laugh❤️😍 love everything about yourself such as the hi and low you’ve been trough! Canada in a few months?? I’ m in Québec near Montréal 🤪👍🏻perhaps going trough the big lacs!! I’ll miss your presence for now and will wish you another great year😘 je vous embrasse, à bientôt 😎🇨🇦
Signing up, can’t wait to add this to my learning library! You guys are hands down my favorite channel across UA-cam. I wish you all the best in this new pursuit.
Love your videos! I'm planning to take my boat from the US to sail the Med and facing the dilemma about the US 110V versus Europe 230V at the marinas. Any considerations on the subject? Could not find a practical solution.
Nice episode! After watching many of your previous technical and how-to episodes, I KNOW this is going to be a great series. I would highly recommend it - sight unseen.
Ryan and Sophie videos and blogs have been my gateway into any of the other channels so props to them introducing me to UA-cam sailing and van life and other things cabin life lol
The production quality from the clips look really great. I am very excited about talking this course. After docking today, I am sure we can both use it! Heidi
Hi guys, in an earlier Q&A after Soloing the Atlantic, you mentioned a contact of yours had started his own shore support business, do you have a website link or anything so others can subscribe / utilise these services please? :) thanks!
It is an e-learning type course, that you take at your own pace, with video lessons, an associated PDF notes and some extra resources (there's a sheet to calculate your energy needs, a survey sample to see how it looks, a risk-management checklist, etc...)
I think it is great that you have developed this courseware. You look to be covering a bunch of stuff that the other online (NauticEd), and courses from ASA & US Sailing do not offer. The one thing that I think is very important for people who take this course are aware of. The classroom is the easy part, its the "Lab work" that is the challenge. Take a hands on, in person course on an actual boat also before you dive in to this. Best case, find a way to sail on someone else's boat. If you are near a marina and they have a sailing program, get involved. If they have a racing program, grab a six pack and see if anyone has a spot for you to go out. Hands on is the best way to apply your learning, and if you can do it before you buy a boat, all the better, if not best.
Wishing you the best on this new endeavor! Your title says “Sailing The World” which presumes full time sailing, but weekend sailors need the same information. Since food and eating well are important for enjoying sailing, I suppose you could even do an episode on provisioning the Galley with cooking utensils and how and what to cook while underway on a mono hull boat. Propane vs electric stoves need to be included!
The course doesn't happen to have FINDING A CREW MATE (preferably the romantic type), does it? I've been living on my boat for 4 years now, and dang, just haven't been able to find someone who wants to do the same, let alone willing to live on a boat full-time.
Merry christmas for you three! Sophie, please dont rush through your videos. Take your time and relax. Some words are really hard to understand since your french accent is mixed with American potato into cheek accent 🤣. I really liked your former videos more. Because they were more informative and the humour was fresh. Now it seems for me more that it is just a planned artificial show. I miss your natural charme. Just an honest comment. Wishing you well. Greetings Patricia
Amazing... How different the worlds are, we living on. Golden rule and reality check: NOTHING in boating is cheap or free. Don't let others tell you different. You need at least 120.000 to 200.000 Euros/dollars for a decant vessel to call home. The maintenance and slip fees are super expensive. Not even to mention insurance, customs, fuel, repairs, yearly dry parking and of course a place to rent for the off season. If you don't have at least 2500 a month in your pocket, don't even think about getting on a boat. Your health insurance must be secured already. For normal people in short: Work your a$$ off at least for 38 years. Hope you're health doesn't go in to the ditch. Make your "captains" licence get a vessel and start cruising. Watch those nice easy breezy videos from people who are always happy, no worries and some how have it all. On top have the fundings to buy all kinds of crap and simple wonder how in the world they "advice" others of reality. Me, those videos make me Nauseous and sometimes even angry. The truth will shine. At least for those poor people who watch those videos and take them serios. If you are looking to get in to sailing the world, there are a handful video makers on UA-cam, who show the REALITY without all that nonsense. Just my two cent.
I feel so sorry for you that you have had to put up with negative naysayers, that single handedly seem to have acquired ALL of the knowledge of the sea. I take it that you are offering to pass on your experience gained, in a professional manner. You have invited us into your lives and always warm my heart with your exploits. Thank you so, so much. (Me? 60 to 70,000 ocean and coastal miles, 30+ years ocean racing, Sydney to Hobarts but no Pacific or Atlantic crossings, so still much to learn.)
Right?! That’s actually a point we mention in the course when talking about finding tuition and building up experience: no one is ever done learning and if someone tells you so, RUN 😆 We’re still learning. Even when we’ll have sailed across more oceans or through more sea conditions, we won’t be done learning. But it doesn’t mean that one should avoid sharing the knowledge they have. To the 99.99999% of the world who doesn’t live on a boat but aspires to, it’s valuable! ☺️
I don’t think this course will be about how to sail high latitudes, but on how to get started and become a full-time liveaboard. And that’s something they have eight years of experience with.
Easy, yeah? Try and let me know how that goes for you. Maybe you can teach me a thing or two and I can buy my own 500K house instead of crashing my in-laws basement over the winter 😂
1st: As a professional mariner and as someone who used to run a sailing school, BRAVO! The best way to safely grow the sport and get more people out on the water responsibly is through ACCESSIBLE education. This is great.

I'm going be alone forever, might as well sail
You’re never alone my friend. If you do sail you’ll find good community
the ocean will be your friend, never alone.

PS I love the orange cockpit cushions on polarseal
signed up......I am just starting myself, I have my boat. And looking forward to what you have to offer.......
Good on you guys. Well done. I am dizzy just thinking about the extent of effort you have put in. Plukkimedes

Good to see another video. Very good information.
Hello Ryan and Sophie -- curious if there is news on your How to Sail videos part 2 and 3? I'm really looking forward to them!
I know this video is a year old, but might I suggest adding the link to the course in either the video description or in the comments section?
A side note, I'll probably be buying the course in the next few days.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks
Merry Christmas and happy new year to you! 🥰

Huh?!
Hope you include a link to those glasses you got for seasickness! 😊. Those made me smile.
Hahaha 😆😆😆 you know what… I’ll do that for you :) (though it’s in part 3 which will come out in 2023 so there’s time ;))
The seasick glasses Ruled! Even though they didn't work. Ha!
hahaha. subscribed just for the typical youtube water/boat scenery intro to 404. wasn't expecting that. nice.

If you can make a living doing what you love, you will be happy. Remember the "4 L's". Live, Love, Laugh, and Learn. Good luck your latest project!
Aloha from hawaii... Loving my new Dakota bank... if in hawaii lets sail....
Thank you so much. We are on the Verge of launching out to sea. Looking for our first boat.
Such an exciting time! Good luck with your adventure ☺️
@@RyanSophieSailing thank you.

Belle vidéo, divertissante et instructive ! J'aime ça ! :)

It is no major problem. Besides - it’s largely decided by the boat you most want!
Love it guys,
Nice episode! After watching many of your previous technical and how-to episodes, I KNOW this is going to be a great series. I would highly recommend it - sight unseen.

Bon courage ❤🎉 any video pour Noël ?
Where is everybody?
Hi guys.
Are you guys still vlogging?
Greetings Christof.
Hi guys, in an earlier Q&A after Soloing the Atlantic, you mentioned a contact of yours had started his own shore support business, do you have a website link or anything so others can subscribe / utilise these services please? :) thanks!
Is it something like a class I can only take once or does it come with notes I can review time and time again?
It is an e-learning type course, that you take at your own pace, with video lessons, an associated PDF notes and some extra resources (there's a sheet to calculate your energy needs, a survey sample to see how it looks, a risk-management checklist, etc...)
We love this and know so many of our clients can benefit from your knowledge ❤ looking forward to recommending your series…well done. 🎉
I will listen to Sophie teach me anything .
Any meet ups while in Iowa?
We think so! Maybe around the end of February before we go back :)
12 minute infomercial.
Weird concept to pay for knowledge huh?
So checked to get signed up for videos. Is it $160 for all videos or is it $160 per video?
Oh my god, no, it is NOT 160$ per video… it’s the whole part 1. That would be very expensive 😱
Ok so just three parts/videos. Sounds very worthwhile! I’m IN!!
hey if you go by lake Champlain come and see my 2022 40.1
Congratulations! Sophie is a gem!
Money. Thats what you need.
lots of
Most outstanding presentation and I'll be looking for more information on this introductory course thank you
Thank you Curtis!

Just my two cent.
Clickbait title. Video just trying to push the course.
I feel so sorry for you that you have had to put up with negative naysayers, that single handedly seem to have acquired ALL of the knowledge of the sea.

Congratulations, shorter video then 15 minutes.
She look like 1 of those a.i. robots sitting in boat talking
Living in that small space man and woman and no kids sailing mean humans don’t suppose to did it only for senior citizens

Eh, when I see white lady, and super nice 500k house I'm out. Easy for people making hundreds of thousands to sail the world
Easy, yeah? Try and let me know how that goes for you. Maybe you can teach me a thing or two and I can buy my own 500K house instead of crashing my in-laws basement over the winter 😂
