Hey man stay strong. Just know that you have a purpose in life, depression is a part of finding it. Discomfort is what’s needed in order to grow, in other words if it weren’t for the bad days the good days wouldn’t be so good. I can promise whatever it is that you’re going through that you can come out on top. Happiness is all based on outlook, persistence and positivity. Find what it is that makes you happy, go after it and never give up. We are always here for you my friend!
@@LifeByTheBow thank you so much. Finding your purpose is a tough but needed journey! I thank y’all for the beautiful moments you share. One of the best channels on UA-cam. Peace love and happiness all over your channel.
Your welcome buddy and agreed! It’s hard to find what it is that you feel destined to do. But once you find it, hold onto it and embrace it. Stay strong man!
Stay strong brotha! If you need someone to talk to, reach out to someone please. Expressing yourself is the best for to beat it. Dealt with it a lot in the line of work i did and its not easy but you can do it
Absolutely love your video and your quest for adventure ! I’m sat here in Yorkshire England 🏴 dying to get over to Florida again with my family. The Keys and Gulf coast are just the best of Florida for me. I first visited as a 8 year old kid in 1976 your Bi centennial year. America 🇺🇸 has never left my mind since. We’ve been back many times over the years. You look to have the dream life, keep up the inspiring work. God bless America and all the good people who live there !! Richard
You are blessed beyond words can explain. Cherish the moments you have with your parents cause once they’re gone it will be all about the memories. I hope someday to also make it down to the Tortugas. Funny thing is me and my family did a lot of fishing and exploring the keys as kids same with my wife and her family. Keep up the great videos love them.
Oh, man! This brought back some super awesome memories! What a fantastic trip! Thank you for sharing it! And, here's to all the parents out there, inspiring their children to create the life they want!
Great piece of history and outstanding photography throughout the whole trip. Having your folks there to share it all is something special. Fantastic guys!
Killer video as usual! Very cool that you are spending this unforgettable time with your parents! The scenery was absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing Clay and Stephanie.
This episode inspired me to get off my butt and book the tour! This time it wasn't sold out. I'm really looking forward to seeing this place. Thank you for sharing another great trip!
bro thanks for this video. I'm waiting for my robalo R222 and I can't wait to explore just like you guys!. Once again thanks and congrats. EXCELENT work! GRACIAS!
One day ima get to your level of video creation. Im surprised you have not been picked up by National Geographic or Discovery channel your videos and cinemagraphic are that good and top notch. I defintly will have to make a run down there in my Boat soon before the water starts to get cold!
Another great video. This has become my favorite show period. So much so that we've been making plans to move out of the desert and get some of that Caribbean life!
Wow! Fantastic video! Love the drone shots of boat underway, white sand beaches and all the colors in the water. Enjoyed seeing how happy your family was going on this adventure together. Lot of smiles and laughs. Congratulations on success of your channel!
Sitting here working overtime, already with a 12 hour day and hours still to go. I take a break, and I see the new video. Thanks for brightening my day. Making me look forward to my Marathon vacation in October. You guys are fantastic.
I loved the Dry Tortugas when I was there about 30 years ago. My high school took 20 of us to camp for 4 nights in the beach. The boat took us fishin' and I caught the biggest fish, a fat mutton snapper. Good times! The lobsters were huge, plentiful and protected unfortunately. It's a beautiful place with lots of fish and the fort is awesome.
Another outstanding video. This one is very timely having lost my father 22 years ago today..... never got to make such memories with him so it's great seeing you able to and appreciating those moments. Hope to be down there and exploring those same waters at some point in my life.
What a fun trip! I enjoy watching your channel after a hard day at work. I now tell my wife I'm going to move us to the FLA Keys and buy a boat! Ok, probably not, but I like the idea!
Dry Tortugas is by far my favorite place, nothing like it, fishing is amazing, caught my personal best mutton and red grouper there. one lesson we learned fishing/camping there for 3 days, is bring as much ice as you possibly can bring
Hi. I'm watching this video from Italy! Great videos and wonderful boat!!! How about mercs and yamahas? Which one is the best or the most reliable? P.S. I have mercury Bye
Been dying to take my boat over there. From Naples it’s pretty far. Glad you guys had a great time… especially with your parents. Beautiful beaches over there
Great video as always. I know you guys provide some useful tips in most of your videos in regards to fishing; however, a video on specifically on fishing tips, bait, and tackle would be great for me. You have solidified yourself as a legitimate knowledge source so it would carry more weight than the random videos I find on UA-cam. Can't wait to take the trip from Tampa Bay to Key West!
My girlfriend & I literally just got back from our trip to Dry Tortugas. Would absolutely recommend to anyone! We did it via Yankee Freedom ferry. Next time we are going to camp there!
Love it! I wanna do this one day! 1. What hotel did you stay in? 2. Did you feel like your boat was safe in the marina? 3. Did you fuel up in Key West before/after? How much fuel does your boat hold?
Great Video and great looking trip. You guys are fun to watch. I was wonder if you could share who you contacted to arrange the boat parking in Key West?
Hey guys! Planning on running down to Key West from Miami for a wedding in April. Planning on running the boat down so I can get some fishing in & maybe hit up Tortuga. What're some good hotels down there with marina options?
Love your guys videos, trying to get a job down there at Turkey Point live the dream a little further south. Hey, when y'all left Key West to the Tortugas did you take the Gulf side or Oceanside? Or any suggestions which side you would run?
One day, I want to upgrade from a small center console to 30 ft walk-around with a cabin of course and spend most of my time on the water.... That's my ultimate dream!!! Nice mutton by the way! -:)
I’m amazed at the incredible quality of your videos - you guys could do a master class on this. For the benefit of everyone else on UA-cam, have you ever considered doing a video on HOW to film and produce great productions like you do?
I believe I’ve said it before but I’ll no doubt say it again this channel is definitely in the top 3 fishing channels in my book it also deserves 4 times the subscribers you have not saying it’s a bad amount by any means lol but for the quality of videos it needs more. great video I’ve been watching ever since you got the 39ST
@@LifeByTheBow Also one more thing what drone do you have I’ve often wandered I have a DJI mini 2 but doesn’t seem to go fast enough to get videos of the boat on plane and when it does the camera tilts down at anything above 25
More great blue water story telling! Happy your parents could join ur adventure. Are you happy with your Mercurys? My 2021 yamaha 425 XTOS have failed once again and ive been without my boat for 3+months. Looking at making a change asap.
Congrats on living y’all best life. I hope to soon get there one day… currently dealing with depression so your videos get me through each day

There’s a lot to be depressed about now but things will get better. Hang in there.
Great Video! Brought back memories of my father with his Chris Craft Commander. He was EVERYWHERE down there. Thank you!
You’re very welcome Mark!
How can people dislike this video?? This is awesome and thank you guys for taking us along and inspiring!
I know! I was thinking the same thing! This video is awesome!
Maybe they don’t like the music
Best music, best photography, best couple, best fishing show.Keep it up guys.
Thank you David and appreciate the kinds words!
wow. nice. you do a great job with the narration. the views speak for themselves And you seem like a good guy and a good son!!!!!!
The keys are my favorite place to be! I’m going to dry tortugas in June for the first time. Can’t wait!! Beautiful video ✨
Just simply the best shades of blue on the planet. Down by 3, bottom of the 9th, full count, and there’s the pitch… THWACK !!!
Seriously, it cant get better! I have always wanted to see Dry Tortugas!! 🤤
You can take a sea plane or ferry!
You 2 are truly inspirational! Thanks for taking the time to take us along for the ride! Gby!
Agreed!

Looked like a great experience to share with your parents.
You two are definitely living the dream.
You guys make some of the best fishing/boating videos
Absolutely Gorgeous...and the scenery at the Tortugas ain't bad either. 🤩

Sometimes there are no words !! Love the family and the giving back.
Your videos are so cool I love Florida Keys, been there several times.Thanks keep up the entertainment.
Always great videos and filming, all the best and keep enjoying life at the fullest. Keep the videos coming !
Another great video. This has become my favorite show period. So much so that we've been making plans to move out of the desert and get some of that Caribbean life!
Thanks so much! A move to Florida will not be regretted with access to the water.
Another great video to enjoy by all. Well done Clay and Steph.
You guys are absolutely the best youtube channel for this content. It’s great, you will blow up I guarantee.
They really do! They are definitely going to blow up. I feel like they already have.
Living the good life, good for you and your family. Nice.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing! Can't imagine going 200 miles on boat.
Glad to see you bring in family. Another awesome video.
Thank you Jackie!

Thanks so much!
you guys do such an amazing job shooting these videos, so entertaining. excellent cinematography
Thanks so much Barry!
Beautiful photography/videography and editing! Very enjoyable to watch and gets me to planning future cruises!
Another awesome video, I have the same questions as Spinning Ballyhoo
This is definitely a bucket list item I want to do when I’m back down in the keys. It’s gorgeous!❤️🌴🐠
Thanks Erik! There’s ferry’s and sea planes that go if you don’t want to take a boat 🤙🏼
Another epic video! Definitely on my bucket list for sure especially when you said it's like a bahama trip only calm waters.
Great video as always and with family Priceless
Sweet. The company I work for just restored the Fort Jefferson Lighthouse and installed it the first part of August. Cool to see it in your video.
Thanks Adam! Lighthouse looks great 💪🏼
The most valuable thing you can give someone is your time.
What a fun trip! I enjoy watching your channel after a hard day at work. I now tell my wife I'm going to move us to the FLA Keys and buy a boat! Ok, probably not, but I like the idea!
Amazing trip and the editing on these videos is top-notch!!
Thanks Erik appreciate you watching!
One of the coolest places I’ve ever been. Great snorkeling just outside the prison walls!
It’s a military fort, not a prison, they did keep prisoners there at one point, but strictly for labor
Can't wait to make our first run over to the Fort
It’s awesome, make sure to fish along the way!
That was a great video, this weekend was the perfect weather to go over there. Looking forward to seeing the next video.
Thanks Hector!
Great trip with the parents! Ready to get my in-laws down there for a visit, we loved our first trip there. Keep up the good work!
Another great adventure guys, thanks much.
Thank you appreciate you watching and commenting!
Dry Tortugas is by far my favorite place, nothing like it, fishing is amazing, caught my personal best mutton and red grouper there. one lesson we learned fishing/camping there for 3 days, is bring as much ice as you possibly can bring
Hi. I'm watching this video from Italy!
Great videos and wonderful boat!!!
How about mercs and yamahas? Which one is the best or the most reliable?
P.S. I have mercury
Bye
Been dying to take my boat over there. From Naples it’s pretty far. Glad you guys had a great time… especially with your parents. Beautiful beaches over there
Awesome video guys, got my avail gear in the mail and quality is top notch great stuff guys!
I love watching y’all’s videos you guys give me amazing ideas for my UA-cam channel and you guys are probably one of my favorite channels to watch!!
Thanks so much buddy!
This national park on my bucket list.
Great video as always. I know you guys provide some useful tips in most of your videos in regards to fishing; however, a video on specifically on fishing tips, bait, and tackle would be great for me. You have solidified yourself as a legitimate knowledge source so it would carry more weight than the random videos I find on UA-cam. Can't wait to take the trip from Tampa Bay to Key West!
Absolutely loved the video as always! There should be a pt.2 to this.
Mrs.Cowart we miss u so much! -tedsy

My girlfriend & I literally just got back from our trip to Dry Tortugas. Would absolutely recommend to anyone! We did it via Yankee Freedom ferry. Next time we are going to camp there!
You guys are great!
Love it! I wanna do this one day!
1. What hotel did you stay in?
2. Did you feel like your boat was safe in the marina?
3. Did you fuel up in Key West before/after? How much fuel does your boat hold?

You’re welcome Ron thanks for watching!
Great Video and great looking trip. You guys are fun to watch. I was wonder if you could share who you contacted to arrange the boat parking in Key West?
Love the videos, you guys are great !!!
Great video guys thank you
I was camping there it’s so beautiful there was a big salt water crocodile that Wallis swim in the area and vary nice coral would recommend
Just plain amazing 👍
Nice monologue at 9mins Clay, very well said

Nice videos and looking pleasant. Wishes from India
Great video I have been to both locations on a friend’s boat. It is a magical amazing place. Hope to visit soon on my own boat.
One day, I want to upgrade from a small center console to 30 ft walk-around with a cabin of course and spend most of my time on the water.... That's my ultimate dream!!! Nice mutton by the way! -:)
another awesome vid thank you...

The Dry Tortugas Lighthouse looks a lot like the one in Barnegat Light NJ.
I believe I’ve said it before but I’ll no doubt say it again this channel is definitely in the top 3 fishing channels in my book it also deserves 4 times the subscribers you have not saying it’s a bad amount by any means lol but for the quality of videos it needs more. great video I’ve been watching ever since you got the 39ST
Appreciate that Neal! The goal is to start getting more creative with the videos. Start doing new things and going new places 🤙🏼
@@LifeByTheBow Also one more thing what drone do you have I’ve often wandered I have a DJI mini 2 but doesn’t seem to go fast enough to get videos of the boat on plane and when it does the camera tilts down at anything above 25
Hey Blake we use the DJi Mavic 2 great little drone 💪🏼
@@LifeByTheBow is it scary to land when it’s rough that’s one thing I never have liked lol
Haha it’s a mission! I wish they made some type of grab handle.
Papa Cowart killing it with the mutton!🙌🏼
When are we going to catch one?!
I’m ready! Let’s do it!
10-4 we will go soon!
💯 family first
Nice video. Thanks
More great blue water story telling! Happy your parents could join ur adventure.
Are you happy with your Mercurys?
My 2021 yamaha 425 XTOS have failed once again and ive been without my boat for 3+months. Looking at making a change asap.
Thank you! So far loving the Mercury’s, bummer to hear about the XTOs we opted for the Mercury’s due to the power to weight ratio.
