Thanks for watching! I plan on posting more videos more frequently in the near future. This video was recorded a few months ago. Follow me on Instagram! garrett.tarter
Garett as a former teacher and talent manager I can say Great Job of documenting your journey. For anyone that critiques you from the warmth of their couch, you can say you bought Hooligan w your own Money & she did just fine. This doesn’t just take investment, intelligence and commitment, it required “Ganas” = desire. Congrats ❤
The red cap wire connectors you have above your primary fuel filter (you incorrectly call it secondary) are for residential use only and should never be used on a boat. Use butt connectors crimped with heat shrink seal on top.
Dantag is right, unless you study/trained in military soldering techniques, you are limited to BUTT-connectors. Correct soldering is too time consuming for any "$$/HR person " to indulge in. on your own boat, soldering to Mil-specs with wicking control is best, if "exotic". Fortunately these military techniques can be googled...yet take A LOT of time. sealing the insulation together with heat shrink and 4200(or similar full sealant) makes it "marine grade"
The UA-cam channel "Patrick Lane" had fuel filter problems as well. His solution was to add a Y valve letting him switch between 2 fuel filters in case one got clogged. He had a problem sailing to the Azores
You were smart and got a great sailboat to begin with. I dealt with a lot of junk. Nothing worse than being in waters where you have to be at a destination by 10am before the winds die and the water turns to glass. Followed by a riptide current without an outboard that takes you back at 10 knots. Head to a shore and chuck anchor. Day over!!
I admire you hugely , & have to honestly admit how envious I am learning your parents sail as well..the whole scene if crazy cool. Truth is in 5 years of viewing Tube sailors, your family is the only one to have been sharing an anchorage in your own boats..thats so cool ! We want to meet your folks..are they willing to do an appearance? My list of top sail stories via UTube..Emerald Steel, Salt and Tar, Sailing AGH so tell us what is the part you show with the red slash thru it ? 🌅Aloha Bro from Canyon
The nor sea 27 with the aft cabin would have been so much nicer for what you are doing.. sailing vessel mig has that boat and is behind you in Hawaii.. the nor sea 27s were built very tuff and built to go around the world..

Every challenge prepares you to make you not only stronger but wiser. Great job 👏

Brother, you getting capable and self reliant
Love seeing you on your sailboat! The maps, video footage and audio are awesome. Safe sailing.
Thanks Mrs. Thomas!
I agree, the maps really helped me understand where they were!
Wow you are getting so professional with drone footage and details of where your sailing its like watching the discovery channel on TV fantastic dude
It’s always nice to see people learn through experience. Smooth sailing.

Thanks for correcting me, had that backwards

You just change filters and do like he did in the video. Its not that big of a deal.
Good video. Catching up on your earlier stuff. Rob was pretty cool. Probably nice to have along.
Like your voice, narration, editing, scenes, good job. Already subed last week and shared. Fare winds
theres nothing better than a friend that will bring 5 gallons of fuel

Love your videos bro
Well done you remind me of the book sailing “dove” The Voyage of the Dove
Awesome adventure. 👌
Glad to see your parents must have raised you to sail.

Wow Sailor 👍
Lots of risk lots of rewards
