Not only should Seawind send you the correct pistons but they should explain why they put the wrong ones on the windows in the first place. Do Seawind boats come with a warranty?

I would expect that Sea Wind would send struts that work.. it's a new boat 😮

Jettie licking his neck to wake Billy up was adorable lol

I am not usually a safety Sally. Just be mindful that your grill can catch on fire. I used to have a grill on our balcony. Cooking burgers (lots of fat). It caught on fire and nearly burnt my house down. I noticed how close it is to your Bimini post. Love your channel.

Great video, Sierra, haters will hate and or just jealous of what they don't have! Your voice is great, and for the person that doesn't like it, don't listen. WE WILL!!! Loved the video and loved seeing more of Jetty! As for dogs on a boat, Jetty is probably taken better care of then a lot of land dogs!!! Billy, Sierra and Jetty, you all ROCK!!! Thank you for the videos and I love that you bring us along! I agree with the other comments regarding the window, come on Seawind, step up to the plate! Fair winds and following Seas my friends!!!

Sierra said some people have commented that they don’t like her voice… really??? It’s the one God gave her and it’s just fine! That’s why I commented the way I did! I agree, who could hate Sierra???

Why did Saw Wind not provide the gas struts? Should that be a warranty issue? I am an RV owner and my new travel trailer had gas struts under the bed that came off (not well attached), and others have just died all within the warranty period. Still waiting to see if manufacture will warranty those issues Si far the warranty is only words on paper.

Great to see you guys continue your journey. Been watching for about 3 years now.

Kinda got the feeling that Seawind was the kinda company that would step up on the struts. Clearly underpowered. Nice cadence on the vid by the way. Very chill!

That was a great day! Thank you for sharing with us.

Great video and nice to see life on your boat! Thanks!

Congrats on the new boat, Billy and Sierra.

Love the way the grill install turned out 😊

Fun video this week. Thanks.

it was great seeing you guys back on the water! I am sorry to hear about all the issues you are having and it goes to show not only how amazing the two of you are for how you are handling it but also just because its new doesn't mean it doesn't come with out the problems

Love watching you guys ❤ life is is good

Cool! Just one of those great days. Wonderful lifestyle you have chosen and thanks for bringing us along.

Awesome video guys!!! Gotta love customizing your new boat!!! See y'all next time.

Always enjoy watching your videos, Billy and Sierra and Jetty! Always fun to see what you're up to!

Thank you for sharing your adventures! You are living my dreams!

Hi...your new home is so beautiful ..We are so happy for all three of you.....smooth sailing...

Thanks for taking us along guys

Thanks for taking us along.

Great day !! Your on your boat!! Thanks for sharing Fair winds ⛵️

Thanks for sharing your first days getting familiar and adapting your new boat.

Excellent content, Love the day and the life Video and make Things seem normal. Thanks for bringing us along.

You kids are a lot of fun too watch! Keep it up and be safe out there!! 👍💕

Excellent vibe with this episode. Well done!

Great video…I love your channel. I have another sailing channel I watch, but when they are on land they show videos of past adventures, yet I know they are on shore. I like you keeping us in more real time.

If you were ever in the Zone, you are definitely there now. Love the new Catamaran. Good wind guys!☀️😎🤙

Hi Billy & Sierra, congratulations on your new home. It’s great to see that you’re back in New England! I’ll keep an eye out for you in Newport Harbor, and hopefully be able to say hello! Peace, Captain Trip

Shouldn't seawind send you the window gas lift thingy?

Those items are pretty cheap, and receiving some from Vietnam would increase cost more than necessary, but maybe Seawind should compensate them back vs send out new ones.

I agree u pay a million dollars for a boat of that caliber and u can’t open your windows?? Why is this even a conversation, Seawind should provide the parts and send someone to install them, if they drop the ball on something so minor I’d hate to see what happens when there’s a major issue, atleast Billy is a problem solver!!!

Pretty poor service from Seawind.

Thanks for that, have a good one.

I like your new boat. It looks perfect for you guys.

You two can resolve any issues on your boat. You make a great team.

Thanks guys, it's great to see you back in New England maybe you'll make it further north this time.

You guys are awesome!!! Put a smile on my face every episode. New boat is amazing! So excited you’re headed to Annapolis for the boat show! YEAH! Can’t wait to see the new boat! (Agreed! BetterHelp and exercise are the answer! ).

Another great video! As a fellow swimmer and open water swimmer, I would strongly suggest that when swimming in open water/off shore (even with Billy there to watch you) that you use a swim buoy. They have some really good ones that are inexpensive online at Swim Outlet

I think seeing the everyday stuff is my favorite type videos. I love the travel and the cool things and the exploring new towns but I like seeing the everyday stuff too. It just helps dreamers like me build the vision.

Great video. I actually saw you guys walking through town last week, cool to see you in a familiar place.

Y’all are doing great. We are a sailing family from South Florida and have enjoyed watching you progress with hard work and smarts. The new boat looks to be an awesome home - keep living life to the fullest

i really liked this video a lot, i liked seeing the everyday aspect of things, i’m gonna say, more like this please

Very creative camera angles and story! Thanks

You guys are awesome! So courageous to chase and live your dreams, very inspiring. I look forward to watching more and dream of owning a Catamaran someday myself. ❤

Love all days with you two!

I subscribe to very few cruiser videos. I like yours because you keep it real. You don’t cause drama for attention like so many others do. Keep up the good work. I cruised for 7 years and I know how hard AND how rewarding it can be. I miss being out there. Enjoy the new Seawind!

Great video dealing with new boat idiosyncrasies ..❤

Well Billy, hope to see you get the gas struts soon, as Sierra doesn’t seem to keen on using wooden ladles to keep the front windows open. Another great video, and nice for you all to share what your off days are like. Looking forward to the next adventure!!

Morning person too. Love the videos. Thank you.

Your boat's beautiful. Highest Blessings

You guys never fail to impress me with your maturity (I don't know how old you are) knowledge, and work ethic. But take it from an one man, you both are exceptional people! Love your channel!

Love your videos keep up the good work you guys deserves the best.

You made my day. 😊 Great episode. I'm surprised the struts on the center window were missed by Seawind. They should definitely send you new and replacement ones.

We just watched Gone with the Wynns on a Sea Wind 1370 from Sailing Ruby Rose. They had three gas struts on their front windows. Hope this helps, love what you guys have done for years, wish you good fortune and fair seas.

Enjoyed it! Thanks for taking us along. Billy D

Love your new boat!

That is a beautiful boat!

We have the same grill and love it. Did have to replace burner after 5 years. No big deal. A razor will clean the interior glass as needed. Foil line the catch pan makes easy clean up.

You both are great and Jetty too!😊

Love you Jetty💖 Finally, something Billy can't fix!!!! The BED!!!😂

Love the videos. Congrats to you.

Awesome to see how you’re adjusting to life on your new boat! Hopefully Seawind can hook you up with new gas struts for the windows. 🤞

thanks for showing us a normal day. I loved it

As a prospective 1170 buyer I’m a bit disappointed by Seawind and those windows

@@alberthowes3639 yeah. I’m surprised by that. I’d actually already asked Seawind about another option which seems possible. Researching more before I pull the trigger. I sent Billy a message but he hasn’t replied. So I can only go on what I see in these videos. It will be interesting to see Ruby Rose videos in a few months. See how Seawind the company is performing.

Subscribed! Nice to see some New England sailing on KZread! Looking forward to more videos.

Good video. Down to earth.

This was an awesome epidode. Thanks for sharing your dream.

Not boring at all! Certainly not as boring as cutting the lawn, shoveling the driveway, pulling weeds etc. I really enjoy seeing the day to day routine that makes living on a boat possible. More “day in the life of” stuff! Thanks!

Been watching for years, love the videos. Some hatch manufacturers incorporate a hinge tensioner into their products. By slightly tightening a hinge screw you can augment the power of the gas shock slowing the hatch descent rate. This adjustment would be at one end of the hinge pin. Safe travels.

That was priceless the way Jetty tried to wake up Billy...

That dingy looks amazing.

Not at all boring , great video guys ❤GL

Love all of your videos you are the best

Thankyou 😊

Loved the typical day! And thank you for the mental health reminder. I started watching y’all years ago when both my daughters left the nest. Now, my 3 yo grandson is facing a fatal diagnosis. I came back to watching you because it makes me happy. Huge hugs! I’m so happy for you three! ❤️

I swam the same way, snorkle mask no fins when I was in Albania. I really liked being able to keep my face down for longer than just a stroke or two. Great videos thanks!

Daily life are my favourite videos to watch!

Jetty had some good airtime this week. Yay Jetty !

i LIKED, SUBSCRIBED AND LOVE THIS EPISODE. Thanks

Hello. Just a suggestion. Amazon sells clamps for gas struts pretty cheap. Temporary fix till you find the correct parts. Enjoy your videos. Love the new boat.✌️❤️

U both are so unreal, all I do is smile through the whole video🤣 Sierra u have the best presentation personality I've ever seen and heard, well done Woman. Best line this episode was Billies " I get my exercise either in the afternoon or evening" yeah good one Billie. Just love the boat, but I'd be pissed at the window struts and be asking seawind to fix them, it's under warranty kids.🇦🇺🌈 hugs for Jeddy.

That crank up window wall is a cool thing.

Having and living on a new boat must be wonderful.

I really think you should of mounted the grill as far away from the arc as you could get. The heat from the grill lid might burn or discolor the arc. It just doesn't seem very safe having a grill with a high heat level that close to any fiberglass structure. I would of turned the grill on high before mounting it to the lid to see how much radiant heat it's going to produce.

Billy,Sierra, One question I've had for over the years I've watched and loved watching your channel. Are you planning on crossing the Atlantic and seeing all that Europe has to offer. My dream most of my life was to be able to visit all the beautiful places there are on the European continent. But I've run out of time but I'd love ❤️ to see it thru your eyes. Hopefully it's in your plans and not to long in the future. Every time I watch your channel I envy you for your youth and the endless ability to do all the things I've dreamed about doing. I really loved your series of videos on your trip to the pacific northwest and Canada. That was one dream I did manage to fullfill,living in Oregon my entire life I did go to many of the places you went. Thankyou so much for bringing back some very good memories when I watched your travels. God bless you both and protect you. Regardless with what some folks feel that they must say negative things take what it's worth from an old man named Billy you two are doing life perfectly and don't let the haters effect that. Stay safe love unconditionally, and always put your spouse first . See you soon, Billy

Beautiful boat.

I remember when you guys thought you'd lost Jetty, I cried...... so glad all 3 of you are still sailing safe

Hope you had a great sail in today! Good NE wind most of the day. We snuck in a kite session late morning before the wind faded. Maybe we’ll see you out on the kite when the wind returns. Btw my 20 yo Magma is hanging on our transom as I write this. Top notch!

Perfect day

Thanks for having me along I totally enjoyed it.

Look this doors! Awesome!

Hi Billy and Sierra, we love your videos and how you live our dreams!! Unfortunately there are always people who are mean for a living and are quite brutal with the things they are saying or writing. I'm sure that the nasty comments are many and sooner or later are getting under your skin. Don't let them get to you!! You are living a great life with it's own hardships, but you are basically free to go wherever you want to go! We are very happy for you being able to do that!!! As for the problem with your gas-stays I wonder whether you could "rig-up" some brackets to fit some-sort-of tandem stays. It might be somewhat intrusive to the eye, but may just get the job done until you get the proper stays. HAPPY SAILING!!!

Loved the video.. I think my favorite kind of day on my boat.. surprisingly . Was a cool & rainy day. I would light my oil lamps & put a pizza in the oven. That would warm her up & would spend the day making my boat perfect. I had a ton of interior teak.. oil it up.. put some great music on & love my boat.. my favorite

After watching the Ruby Rose build for the past year (Seawind 1390) it is VERY interesting to see a side of a company that isn't all sunshine and roses. Seriously - missing and weak window struts and that thru-hull?!! I think you are taking the issues with a lot of grace by not completely bashing them. Really enjoying seeing you back on the water and looking forward to all the future episodes.

Ruby Rose appeared to be in bed with Seawind going way back to their farce “Catamaran reviews”. It was predictable watching Nick get seasick on the voyage of hull one. Of course you’re going to get sick sitting in the back, and looking THROUGH the cabin watching the boat pitching up and down. It like sitting in the back of the van in the mountains.

Wow! Poorly designed windows, with struts that can’t hold the windows open?! (And one of the windows they forgot to even install struts?!) Having to engineer and order their own custom strut? And a grill so cheap that they already had to replace it?

Your journey is brilliant and I so admire everything you have done.... Time for a baby dirty diapers and new chapter.. Keep up the great work I and many others love it

I like your white interior because any color you add to your boat is going to really pop.

I enjoyed your day-in-the-life, especially on the new boat! What's that awesome onesie (?) Billy?! It looks comfy!

Thanks for the day with you both. You saved me air fair.

Forget most negative comments. Y'all get my thumbs up at the start of every vid. No needless drama mainly because of your well laid plans and prep. That's real as it gets.

18:52 why isn't seawind sending you new window struts? It's a brand new boat especially when 1 window didn't even have any.
