Your knowledge is impressive. I learned to sail in Key West, them owned 2 small sailboats there. My friends lived on thier sloop. The sailing is excellent there 👍👍
Then I came to the end, and waiting for some new videos, fun to watch how you live your life onboard. Hope you have gotten some money the other day to. B
You are really getting that boat together. A small suggestion is to order a set of additional mounts for your dinghy lights and put them on the sailboat for when your main nav lights do not want to cooperate.
Back aft is a better idea,easier to get at in an emergency and you don t have to navigate all that deck cargo to get to the bow.Enjoyed your wednesday videos with my morning coffee.
That is very true to move the spare to the back. Also in rough water you may stuff the whole bow in the water and that anchor would raise havoc on the rail if it does not come free altogether.
Awesome again! Keep it up, always look forward to your videos! I sailed down the east coast in a Ericson 35 see UA-cam Sailing Dijan. 5 yrs in Florida now have a the exact same boat now. You're tuning me in to it! Heading to the Bahamas 6/7 months. Will update my channel. Look forward to your posts! Full time live aboard too! Looking to go further, St Martin etc.
Very interested in that handheld spotlight. Can you reply with a link or at least a description? I feel bad for you as far as the people who have nothing better to do with their lives than judge and condemn people they don't even know. Right or wrong, keep doing what you love and don't pay any attention to what others think!
Thank you, they keep things interesting I guess. Thankfully the support far outweighs the negative. So far I highly recommend the spotlight. It's fairly compact and rechargeable and super bright. www.amazon.com/dp/B08ZXST7JP/?coliid=I1A1EAUPXB28PF&colid=34MAAXIYSYLJC&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_apann_lstpd_V50E4DGHJT9KH8G9X536&language=en_US
That was my idea with the light… if you don’t like it in front. I put mine on top, I should have said that when i suggested it. Great job. What’s the Amazon list
That was a great idea. I put it on the back of the cowling and so far seems to be working out great. And the Amazon list was made of some boat parts that would be nice to have and everyone bought all of the items. Very thankful for that
How can I access your Amazon list? I am enjoying living vicariously through you. Living there in my early 20s was full of experiences that I'll never forget
Sweet baby Jesus your boat looks heavy on the stern!!!!!!!!!!!.....Your lucky to do that kinda stuff!!!.....Even if I would want to I couldn't!!!!>....Thank you for filming your journey!!!!>.....Very appreciated!!!
Damon, I tried to get this from you wish list but cannot send it from Amazon, if no-one has gotten this for you please let me know I will get it for you and mail it to you, I do live in Florida. If you can use two of them then I will get it and send it out look forward to hearing from you. TUOLNK FME Coaxial Cable RG58 FME Male Plug to FME…
Thank you Cody, looks like Amazon isn't letting anyone else send it either. I was going to get two to run for a AIS system but having issues with getting the cable to allow to send on the Amazon listing so I'll have to try another way
Grass Roots, are you kidding me. Looks like someone is helping him a great deal. Funds never seem an issue for this young man. I certainly believe he is not new at sailing. I don’t think he’s getting any money from UA-cam with that kind of a following. It appears to me he’s a scammer and a fraud. Yes, he’s very likable, as a good scammer should be, but he knows way too much about sailing and then making it look like it’s a new experience for him. He must of had a bundle to buy the boat, and a camper, all the funds he put into the boat. To me it looks fishy. He certainly seems to have the cash to dock and pay for his boat whenever he wants. Take a look at Holmes, he’s authentic, while this young fraud pulls one off having you believe he is ignorant and new at sailing and is a newbie. Take a good look at his production, very professional, where is that coming from. Good productions takes hard earned talent and loads of cash to buy the necessary equipment, not to mention the cost of internet. He must be sponsored and there trying to make this a very well paying endever. My thoughts and observation.
If you're interested in learning more I'd recommend checking out my video "Why I Live on a Sailboat in the FL Keys" to sum it up though living on the waters cheaper than on land and holding a job and spending less than you make helps a great deal aswell
Why is it only guys giving you stuff!?!?!?!?!?......Very bizarre if you ask me!!....Taking advantage of your good looking to profit from gay people!?!?!?....Yeah it's surely feels like it!!!?!?
Dude how about being positive about his followers and his content. His followers are choosing to do what they want. Sailing is generally a male driven industry gay or straight so relax on the negativity. You seem to be having some internal feelings that may be coming out and I would highly recommend you deal with those privately. This guy has done nothing to warrant your comment and even if he did, you can easily move on if you are triggered.
It's funny that your whole life depends on a 5.0 mercury !!!!!!!!!!...Why do you have like 5 ancrres going on!?!???!!>...You seem to have soft weak hands!?!?!!?...I dunno why but i got a feeling your boat smells bad for some reason!?!?!!
You are Grass Roots learning!.. Well Done. We are Watching.

It's a great place for sailing, lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here too!
Hi, thanks for another well edited and put together video. Looks like you’re doing a great job of getting things ready for the big sail :) thanks
Thanks Stewart!
Looking good, Damon! I super enjoy the vids of your journey
Have you thought about sailing to Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas?
Yes I'm planning to sail out there before heading to the Bahamas in January
Good Job on your video content Damon. I always look forward to your content. its always real and authentic!
Then I came to the end, and waiting for some new videos, fun to watch how you live your life onboard.
Hope you have gotten some money the other day to.

Yes thank you!
@@damonrust Don't spend it all on burgers.
Hi Cap D! Another great video! Love all the projects getting done. Thanks for taking us all along! ❤
Awesome video! Look forward to your next posts.
AMBASSADOR STARSHIP IS IN MOTHBALLS.....
I WILL COME SEE YOU NEXT YEAR .
WOW I'M GOING TO BE 53
Love the video style you use, make me feel like im on the boat too
You are really getting that boat together. A small suggestion is to order a set of additional mounts for your dinghy lights and put them on the sailboat for when your main nav lights do not want to cooperate.
Not a bad idea, they would come in handy in a pinch
usually best to put the backup anchor in a locker or stern rail. You will rarely use it.

Good point, I think this makes more sense. Epecially when you mentioned the bow diving through waves Tim. I'll be moving it back to the stern
Float on my friend great video.

Thank you!
@@damonrust think you need a woman to be out there sailing with you. Safety first!
Great music around 7:20
Put a wind muff for that mic in your Amazon wishlist.
Great idea!
Thanks for the video! Have a great 🍁 🦃 🍁Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍁 Damon! 👋
Thanks and you too!
Great video

I had it linked in the description but everyone bought all of the items! I appreciate it very much
You might need to tie a britle with 2 separate ropes?
The bridle hasn't seemed to wear at all on that point but I think your idea would be the smartest and safest in the event of a failure on either side
Great video man. How has the weather been on the hook down there? Im on the hook off key biscayne atm but want to come a little further south.
It's been great, a bit windy but it's nice and quiet down here. I'll be heading out before long if you want to tie off to my morning I've got here
Does someone have to do a complete inspection of the boat before you go on a long trip?
No
Most people have the boat inspected thoroughly before purchasing and then will inspect it themselves before going on a long passage

Get a life!
I can smell your jealousy from here
What a horrible and nihilistic thing for you to say, you should be ashamed of yourself!
