Same, where can I purchase some

Hey guys thanks for tuning in and sorry for the wait!! Been crazy busy attending multiple shows throughout Feb. Just a reminder we’re having multiple sales on AvailGear.com Our performance fleece hoodies are on sale $10 off and we have some performance shirts $10-$20 off. Go get them while they’re still there!

"Fish smart and fish for future generations" This is why I love your channel. There are times I have to control my anger when I see poachers take more than they need or keep illegal size fish.

I took the seaplane out of Key West to Dry Tortugas in 2020 to snorkel around the island, the water was cold, but beautiful. I was definitely envious of the National Parks people who lived on the island, what an office.

I’ve been to the dry tortugas a few times… every time those campsites are insane. There is no ground. It’s just entirely covered in hermit crabs. It’s nuts. Don’t know how you guys got lucky. And yes. Dock slips are still f’d. Makes for great snorkeling though. That’s the absolute dream boat too. Congrats.

Love your camping trip to Tortugas. Camped there in 1975 in my 21’ Seabird. Cooked with our Coleman stove and had a tour of the fort by lonesome park ranger. Fabulous place. Thanks for reminding me of that epic trip almost 50 years ago.

Beautiful trip to Ft .Jefferson. I did that in 1975 in my 21’ Seabird with wife and two kids. One buddy in his 23 Formula went with us. We tent camped as well and had a blast. Such a gorgeous place. Hardly anyone there the park ranger-gave us a personally guided tour or the fort. The Coast Guard let us climb up inside the lighthouse. Sure did enjoy your video.

Such a magnificent area filled with so much life, it's just stunning and I can see why people wanted to claim the area as far back as the mid 1500's when Ponce de Leon discovered the islands. I have to say I'm becoming more and more confident that if I ever had the chance to purchase a sea going boat, your little 24' Pathfinder really fits the bill covering everything from shallow bay to open ocean seemingly with ease. It's a smart design in a market where a "do it all" boat would be highly prized! I hope you had a safe crossing back to the Keys, and thank-you for letting us tag along on your adventure!! As always I love the shots, you have a very good eye, Clay. Now, while I convalesce I have some time to go back and watch from adventure #1 all the way through to today!! Take care and I'm looking forward to the next video!! - Dave

Love watching your videos. Started a few years ago when I was trying to decide what kayak to upgrade to from my old paddle kayak. I only follow two people so it was cool to see you ran into the other guy at the boat show (deer meat for dinner). Not sure how an Oregon kayak fisherman that isn't a tech or social media guy gets into following two Florida guys😊 I've always thought you seemed like a guy who'd be fun to just fish and shoot the chit with.
