![Why You Should Spend a Day in Grand Case - [A Walk in St. Martin's Most Charming Fishing Village]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/VuA9KZJcTF0/mqdefault.jpg)
My wife and I stayed at Aqualina 102 in Simpson Bay Dec 3 - 13, 2015 and it was 10 days in Paradise. We are from Winnipeg, Canada and just loved it there. I came back a changed person.
I love your Canadian Flag.
We did the 12 Metre Challenge and choose the Canadian Boat and sung our national anthem on the boat and shouted "True North" like we do at Jet games. It was a blast!
We beat the USA team by 5 laps too!!!!!!! (Race is only 3 laps)
Sint Maarten is the friendly island............with great drivers as well!

I lived there for 11 years, was a charter Cap for the Moorings, Sunsail, Sunyacht and La Vida(Omega) out of Oyster Pond, great times, my daughter was born there as well....
I can not wait to visit the area. My plans are to be back on the islands in the next year.

+Affiliate Incomes Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed.. and maybe see you down here soon! :)
we went to St Marten a couple of years ago on a carnival cruise ship, it was hot and we had a great tour over the entire island. I'd love to spend a week or more there someday
I absolutely love your videos! Thanks to you, I know where I'll be moving soon. Love yachts and island hoping. Your vids are very informative..keep 'em comin!
Breathtaking !
Again, Rick.. Awesome! I can hardly wait to get "The Plan" finished and get down thereThanks for all you do and Merry Christmas!!!
+D Gourdine Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed.. and Merry Christmas to you also! :)

Me encantó el video y tu maravillosa descripción, gracias!
Thank you very much for this video. I like it very much.
Loving this Rick.... I'm going to be using your vids to plan my first vacation to St. Martin.
+msnpassjan2004 Glad I could help, thanks for watching! :)
Nice! Thanks!
+Peter Hunsader Thanks Peter, glad you enjoyed! :)
Fricking awesome video. makes me want to go there like now.
cheers!
+offplanetevent wow mate, nice comment, thanks much! :)
My wife and i wish we could be there with ya ! We enjoy all your videos! Your camera skills are awesome.
Just found your channel….grabbing a beer and kicking back and doing some marathon Capt Rick video watching here in San Diego's few rainy days.
+GREAT WHITE Thanks! Glad you are enjoying, be sure and let me know your favourites! :)
funny you should ask as I was watching your vid in the marine store and at the time you were talking about the toilets, and my wife walk in and sais what the hell are you watching….which sais a lot about the way you present everything, as I do not even own a boat…ha I think it just was bringing up great memories of when I was a teenager in Redondo back in the late 60's into 70's and my friends parents would let us sail their Del Rey to catalina, we had soooo much fun, some of my fondest memories. I always wanted a Cal 30 or 28 or something like that, I thought those were the boats at the time, mina like the old nikon f camera…do love the drone shots and the walking around the shopping and drinking stations……
Great video Rick! Did I see your drone flying over the NYE celebrations in Gustavia, St. Bart's this year?
I hope you're getting compensated by the Sint Maarten Tourism Bureau. This is the best video I've seen yet about Philipsburg. All the aerial video shots are very cool. I'm ready to book a vacation at Holland House. With ocean view rooms starting under $200 a night it's a bargain. Looking forward to Part 2. Take Care.
+Scott Hert Glad you enjoyed Scott, but no I'm not compensated by any tourism board here, strictly working on my own.. but hopefully the series will evolve into an entertaining and informative collection of videos about what is available in all the areas we sail! :)
I look forward to seeing more, more, more.
Great job Rick..thanks for the videos. Was thinking, could you maybe superimpose a chart at the beginning/end with some quick important data to a cruiser. IE. Crime/Expense (food, alcohol, goods (groceries..etc), dockage (marina/mooring). Just thought a scale 1-10 for various categories might be a nice touch.
hey Rick. I don't know if you have ever given out the specs about the sophisticated lady but I think it would make an interesting your of your boat. by the way,, really enjoy your videos
Hi Capt Rick...good stuff! ...just a quick suggestion going forward...for those of us not so well acquainted with the geography of that area...please consider a map/chart introduction of the area that you will be featuring...I think the name of a site that I have used in the past was called 'google tour' ...or something similar that would have a broad/ariel view of your subject site (including a wide enough perimeter that would include other landmarks/ Islands, so we could get a feel for the locations) ....then perhaps pick it up from there with that nice drone of yours...
...sorry didn't have email address for you to share this idea...hope you find it helpful.
Regards
Capt Brian ;-)
This is a very cool idea and has the potential to be a great resource. Just keep it to more 'cool' than 'commercial' --please!
(Music is great as always.)
+DianaOfBurlington I'm striving to make the series into a video cruising guide to the areas we sail... so it will always be about local businesses and services available in the featured area, and all my favourite hangouts and what they offer, and hopefully in a format that people find entertaining and informative at same time! :)
+Rick Moore Thanks, Rick. The 'informative' part is what the appeal is, I think. As a novelist doing research in these areas, I am always stymied by the lack of 'real' information, like what the locale really looks like, beyond the tourism sites and resorts and restaurants. Any time you go to a private party at a private house and can show us a little of what it's like 'off the beaten trail' is fascinating. Like, where do kids go to school? What trees grow there? Where does a cruiser buy groceries? And what kind of boats do the locals have? You can be a font of cool 'in-the-know' info for many of us.
I meant what I said in the other post about meaning to sail into the eastern islands nex year! --down to you of course. :)
+DianaOfBurlington yes, you'll see all of that as the series progresses, and even in some of my other previous videos.. these first videos in St Martin will be more commercial because this is where we as cruisers come to get stuff done before heading to next islands.. but I have to realize there are others watching also that look for information on a grander scale that encompasses options for land dwellers as well.. Part 2 of Philipsburg will have an interview with a local in the area that tells stories of life behind the scenes there.. :)
Rick, every time I watch your videos, I hate my life, LOL.
+Jerry Smith Oops.. sorry Jerry.. but I hope you hate it in a good way! ;)
+Rick Moore Absolutely :)
DUDE!!!!! I don't know whether to be jealous and hate you or hang your picture on the wall next to my autographed photo of Captain Ron. Either way, I have to go back to work in the morning and wanted to thank you for yet another great video. Your videos are better than anything on TV. Cheers. PS….Where do you find these beautiful ladies?
+LEE CUMMINGS Hey, being compared to Captain Ron puts me in an honorary category... thanks mate! :)
Hi Rick, I have enjoyed your videos and viewing your adventure for some time. I sailed the BVI on a bare boat charter with Conch in 2016, I was going to return this April however Irma wrecked the boat we had reserved. I would like to return to the Caribbean some day soon, I have noticed you tend to spend a considerable amount of time around Grenada. I presume Grenada is one of your favorites. I would like to sail from the BVI to Grenada return, I am looking for a bareboat charter who permits this extended type of cruise at an affordable price.I do not need a new boat I sail a 30 year old CS30 at home and am comfortable to repair on the fly. For a quick cruise I hope to complete in 2 months
soo beautiful! rescue me from this broke life! lol
Oh God, I wanna live there!!!!!
+dunyazade It's here for you any time you're ready! ;)
+dunyazade I live in the caribbean but i trade my stay with anyone just to live in St.Martin :D
+Actual simmer yet here I am looking forward to Grenada! :)
Lolz nice :D
Oh, maybe one day I can afford it :D
Rick - you seem to have a number of drones in your arsenal - did you use them all for this video, or do you find yourself favoring one more than others?
+chambersdjc This video was filmed mostly with one of the first generation Splash Drones.. that's why there is still shaking in some of the scenes.. but the new generation with upgraded firmware is much better now.. still won't compare to what I can film with the Inspire drone, but does a real good job and it's nice to be able to fly over water without worrying about losing it if it goes down, Lol
You must have an external raid of some sort to get all this footage together.
+BeeRich33 Typically I have 3-4 drives connected simultaneously, 2TB each.. so always have good access to current and archived footage when I'm editing
Fantablous video.. you should own a Tv channel next :D
+Actual simmer Thanks mate! But this is better, for me and for you... and you don't have to wait till 8pm to watch your favorite show! :)
+unenslaved2012 ~ what he said... ;)
another great video rick I like going to pirates in paradise its an Ohio state themed bar it was in your video at about 7;28 I seen my favorite table out front we love getting a bucket and sitting back and watch the people go by and when it gets hot we walk right across the path and right into the ocean.
+jerry b Thanks Jerry, glad you enjoyed, and got to re-visit some of your favourite places! :)
lucky❤
+Atori Harrison Did you see yourself Josanne? :)
Rick. Who is this woman? time 3-10 Is it your wife? I had already seen the woman in your video.
+Kraund 85 I should be so lucky, but no, unfortunately she didn't like sailing life... :(
+Rick Moore I thought it was your wife. Because I am seen her before on your boat in your video.
