I knew some people sailing in the same windless situation, who jumped into the ocean and swam around. Then suddenly, unexpectedly, a strong gush of wind caught the sails and pushed their boats forward! They had to swim like hell to catch up! They never tried that again.

Dude, you have my utmost respect. Social media has ruined my attention span, and I can barely watch 10 minute long videos. But I’ve watched each part of your journey in absolute awe. You’re a madman, and have so much guts!! Good luck in your future journeys💪

Knowing you were trapped, with no wind, in the middle of the ocean, with no escape, for an entire week, is quite possibly the most insane thing I’ve ever seen. You are 19 years old and you might be my hero. That is absolutely insane

As a pilot, solo flight is one of the first accomplishments in a career. Years later as an airline pilot I still have only about 2000 hours experience. In one month you have 720 hours solo piloting a sail boat across the pacific. Much respect, I look forward to learning how to sail myself and encourage you to consider taking flight.

Oh..you can...you absolutely can. Step one.... believe in yourself... step two...do it. Start with a crappy cheap sailboat on whatever body of water is near you and go from there. Sailing... It's difficult, frustrating, exhausting. And the greatest thing you'll ever do... other than being a parent.

You are experiencing what pioneer sailers had to contend with , Not alone though ! Even with the technology you have on board it is an adventure I wouldn’t take . You made it ! 👍

You are a remarkable young man......I just lived 30 days at sea vicariously through you. That was totally awesome and you should be very proud of your accomplishment.

Wactched all three parts. You’re a smart, brave man. Thanks for not playing loud unnecessary music. It’s enjoyable to hear the boat, wind, rain water. Nice job!

The “land ho” made me smile so much !! Well done well done well done 🌟🌟

This channel has so much potential! Keep it as cool and as real as it is!

Congratulations, Garrett. As a 45 year-old who is just getting interested in sailing this series had me engrossed. Thank you for being so candid. Looking forward to whatever you post next

So I just watched all three videos of your trip in a row. I'm not even a sailor but I am a lover of adventures and I thoroughly enjoyed your voyage. I was extremely impressed with your level of calmness and confidence. I also loved your honesty and vulnerability when things didn't go as planned or when you were concerned or fearful. I really loved watching the series and would like to congratulate you on your accomplishment. Knowing it was your first crossing made it even better.

Anyone else gonna mention how this dude fearlessly just jumps off his boat into the middle of the ocean?

I'm very impressed by your courage and resilience while being all alone. Impressive!

Greetings from Texas ✌️ This was really fun to watch, thanks for sharing. I doubt I was anywhere as excited to see land as you were after being at sea that long, alone no doubt, but I felt pretty excited and happy for you man once you turned the camera towards Tahiti. What a badass. Respect

I'm not sure why this was recommended to me but I watched all 3 parts. Good stuff man 👍

This looks so fun but scary as hell at the same time

It is so cool to see such authentic sailing showing all ups and downs without sugarcoating anything. Keep up the great work! :) Have you thought about making a boat tour video?

I like the three parts because it seems that it is a good representation of an open ocean trip. Not much sleep, and lots of dulldrums! And then sometimes lots of wind. But always an adventure. Thanks for sharing your adventure with the world.

Just turned 60 done some crazy shit in my day too but this is just insane, mad respect young man, go far!!

“Freaking Ronald” next second: *the most stunning view of the trip*

nice trip Garrett, I was a young kid w several trips to Bermuda, Nova Scotia and the Bahamas w my dad in the 80's He went on to England from NY and through the European locks . No Radar No Gps, just a sextant. Always wanted to head the direction your going. My hero was Tristan Jones and I actually met him and he signed a book for me lol. Anyway , safe passages dude, you make older sailors proud.

So glad youve made it, now there are tons of stories you will be able to tell. What an amazing achievement. Gg my boy!!

The first video randomly popped up on my homepage last night and watched the whole thing, was "saving" the second for today and came back to see you had uploaded Part 3 also, talk about a double whammy. It's really inspirational that you set out and accomplished this at just 19. I love your stoicism, if that was me and I had finally saw Tahiti after 28 days at sea I would be bawling crying with emotion know what had been accomplished. Hell, I might've shed a tear or two just watching.

Dude you’re an absolute legend for this. I enjoyed watching this a lot. So glad you made it safely. Cheers

Wow! I binge-watched the whole 3 series. Your adventure diary was just so authentic. There were parts of the videos that got me worried about you. I know it took for you real mental focus not to panic. This is by far the best vblog of authenticity without all the crazy edits, filters, loops & hoops. Keep it real! I appreciate your sailing adventure. I did a solo 2 months, during covid shutdown, of traveling, camping, & hiking adventures to places I've never been to in the middle of nowhere. It really builds character learning our strengths & weaknesses. Keep seeking new adventures!!! I am always high on life!
