    I am 100% jealous. Way to go team! And huge thanks to Captain Ed for inviting Sam (and thereby the rest of us) along. You guys are all living the dream and a huge inspiration. And one final shout out to the intrepid little bird who visited. You are an awesome little feathered creature...

    Sam has shown a great amount of restraint as he resisted the urge to drill holes in this boat.

    • @corporalclegg914
      @corporalclegg914 2 роки тому +8

      agreed. he did get some Gorilla Taping accomplished & sniffed out an issue under sail, so all seems like a characteristic SHS passage

    Even on a friends boat we see boat projects completed Sam Holmes Sailing style which is awesome. Great opportunity and a special shout out to the captain of the Lia for inviting him along. That Oyster 48 sure is a pretty boat. Another great update and thanks for sharing!

    30 years ago I sailed on the MV Norsel from Tromso to Svalbad return. A great experience. Camped rough for 18 days. My diary tells me all. Greeting from Australia 🇦🇺

    Thank you so much Sam for another amazing video.
    While I was watching this one, I realized I do not have to be jealous of you. I would simply have to imitate you: be bold and ACT!!!
    Then nothing would stop us then. As long as health is stable.
    I wish you to be healthy and happy for many, many years!
    (And I wish to myself to be bold enough to quit everything and sail the world away!)

    LIKE posted at 5:15 - great sound effects! Hope it tasted as good as it sounded. There's a fun Irish Trad tune we play sometimes: Beare Island, for what that's worth.
    Thanks for sharing these adventures - awesome scenery. 9:43 - WOW - talk about being on top of the world - and there you are.
    Are you allowed to tie up to the pole of the North when you see it?

    One of your better installments Sam, curious, is it difficult to be on a voyage as crew, with so many single voyaging miles under the keel?

    • @philgray1023
      @philgray1023 2 роки тому +3

      I happily crew on other boats, content that someone else is paying the bills and worrying about the weather. It is much more relaxing than managing your own boat and worrying about crew comfort. It almost feels like a holiday for me. I find you always learn something from other skippers, both what works and what doesn't.
