    Have you tried putting the stern plAtform next to the mooring ball..? Lyn could click a line to the ball, and walk the line to the bow.. .?

      We do not have a full walk-around on our boat because of the extended aft deck.

      Thats right, I started watching from #1, and this is where I am at right now. I 'm in California and was only in the Atlantic when I was in the Army in 1970.
      You guy have been more informing than 10,000 travel guides. No shit. I will be caught up to the present in a week.

    Hi guys, I been following your adventures, and I would like you to comment about your anchor , I noticed your primer is a Fortress, how big it is and how trustable you feel ,cause some times the wind blows.
    Thanks and keep going .

      We feel very safe with it. It weighs about 35 lbs, so it is not too heavy for the size. It is about three feet long altogether.

    I love St. Augustine so much too! Have you all ever been to Beaches at Vilano where you can beach your tender (or at least you used to be able to) right at the restaurant? It is one of my favorite places there!

    Your might not be responding to post this long after you posted, but I happened onto your site because of you mooring there! I am currently moored in salt run which is on the other side of Anastasia Island and have been the whole month of march! I also use a trolling motor for my hard dinghy, I haven't seen that that much. I will check out some more of your vids!

    Why did you purchase an inflatable dinghy when I believe you have a 24 foot tender on your boat? Also can you show a picture of your dingy and the divot on the back of your boat while docked?

    St Augustine is place I have not been to but I would like to visit. by the way I heard you have to bathe in the fountain of youth not drink it for it to work. LOL I loved the White peacock that was beautiful. I'M going to Naples in either late January or early February. Once again I'M enjoying this series of videos on your trip. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a great weekend!!!

    As also thanks for posting this and sharing a life many of us just dream about. The good news is when my ship does come in, I will already be up to speed on the yacht lifestyle. It's going to be a Hatteras for the water, Gulfstream for all my air travels. Any future plans to take her out in the big deep water, like maybe cruising the Bahamas? Norman Cay is nice around this time of the year, so I've been told. Thanks, your friend, Johnny Rocco

    How many feet / what hp motor is the whaler on top? And what kind of crane dows it take to get it up there?

    • @tryingnottosink9107
      @tryingnottosink9107  6 років тому

      It is 13 foot with a 40HP Yamaha. The davit (crane) is a Marquip 1000. We just had it rebuilt. A video of that will be posted soon.

    Any idea on how big a boat those mooring balls can hold? Really enjoy your videos. We live right over in NJ and been boating on the Cheasepeak for 30 years. About to start traveling the ICW too and to Florida and the Bahamas. Keep up the videos and the adventures.

    • @tryingnottosink9107

      I do not know. We described our boat and they had no problem letting us get a ball. We are 65 feet and 70,000 lbs.

      The name of the song is Budapest, it's by George Ezra. This particular cover is by Keith Maguire. They seem to have recorded it from him busking, during their video "Part 5 - Cruise from Atlantic City to New York to Port Jefferson on our way to Marta's Vineyard", it's around the 3:30 mark.

      Robert Garbe the dinghy/boston whaler on top is typically used for a dinghy. To get to and from shore.

      Exactly. Although, it is a pain to take her down and put her back, so we have a smaller dinghy on the swim platform as well.

      I was stationed at Jupiter Inlet twice. We didn't have a rescue boat, the nearest was at Juno. The LORSTA is long gone but the lighthouse is still there. We used to take visitors up, I doubt it's open to the public now.
