    • @BeauAndBrandy
      @BeauAndBrandy  Місяць тому

      we have contemplated that for sure. just haven't got around to implementing it. but if we tilt them a good about of rain does run off of them into the cockpit floor where we place a tarp and collect water.

  • @russellegge9840

    You might want to try some Sailkote lube on the mail slugs. It seems pretty dry when Bo was trying to lift the main. I used to use it, and it helped a lot. Once a month during the season, I would spray the slugs and as much of the track that I could reach right before raising the main. It will also really help when you get your roller furler, there is a lot of friction on those slugs.

    Hi,Beau and brandy , yes, I believe there’s a lot of people sitting at the desk looking at screensavers thinking what the hell am I doing here this is nonsense wasting my life. I used to travel a lot when I was younger and when I was 58 years old, I had a major truck accident and lost my right leg above the knee that has slowed me right down, it is so hard to travel on planes etc etc when you’re in the wheelchair anyway life goes on still enjoying life to the max Cliff from Australia

    After all these years you know I appreciate your channel. That said, why do you insist on sheeting the Genoa before you hoist it? Have you considered slacking the sheets BEFORE you hoist the halyard? Let it flap freely in the breeze as you tighten the halyard. So much less work and so much less wear & tear on the rig and the sail. Try it, you’ll like it.

Partly because of your example, I'm about to head out for a couple years of Caribbean cruising - I retired 6 months ago and the boat is ready - untying the lines in 3 weeks!! I plan to post some videos - can you please tell me what GoPro accessories I will need to get me started? Also, what editing program do you use? (I have a MacBook) Thanks!
