Sailing Offshore for 44 Days: Pacific Mexico to Canada 4300nm. 45 minutes of RAW unedited footage
The Clipper Route. 44 Days 4300nm. Wow, what a trip. I've never experienced such high highs and low lows. This video could have been hours long and I purposefully haven't added voiceover to explain a lot of things, feel free to ask questions, I'll do my best to answer them.
A huge thanks to Helly Hansen for supporting this massive journey and for believing in my adventures.
An even bigger thank you to my dad, Farrell, for joining me on this trip. Forever grateful for the memories!

Thank you everyone for watching and for your comments, I’m a bit overwhelmed with how many views and comments and new subscribers this video has received in the last day! I’d love to do a question and answer video next week to address some of your questions. If you have a question, please comment below and I’ll touch on it next Monday when the video comes out!

I have a few questions. What surprised you or was a bigger deal than maybe you thought it would be? What was the effect to your body and mind to be on passage for 44 days? Was there a bit of gear you did not have that would have made the passage easier? Was there something you wish you had done differently to prepare yourself and/or the boat for prior to starting your passage?

What is your best memory for sailing and do you own your boat. Love watching this vlog.
I am an old guy who can’t be on the water any longer. Sharing your voyage has been the highlight of my day. Thank you so much.

When music is considered, lean towards upping the quality of filming & narrative..I concure- sailing backed by audio stinks. What a treat sharing a long voyage with your pops...Honestly there wasn't a moment I didn't enjoy.

@@AllAboutSpray ..excellent.. Not sure exactly why, but there are two "mistakes" that newbie yutubers tend to make. 1) they use an inordinate amount of fast forwarded video (this should be used very rarely if ever), and 2) they delete natural sound and pump in music, They even start music when they start speaking, if you can imagine that, As best as I can tell, they believe that professional documentaries and movie producers do this. The reality is music is always cut when people speak and is rarely added at any other time other than the into and ending credits. It is just a weird misconception that is now prevalent on youtube.

It’s actually quite nice seeing raw unedited video. Gives you a more realistic feel for being on the ocean
Don’t know your dad’s background but I think he’d be a good man to have in a foxhole. He has a slow, methodical way that seems super comforting in stressful situations.

Thank you for the real deal - no music, just the beautiful ambient sounds.
Aww. The best part of of my father taught me sailing. RIP, Dad.
When I watch these kinds of videos, I realize how much of an amateur sailor that I am despite 15 years on the water. What an amazing journey with your Dad.
Enjoyed and best of all no music which just robs the story. Nice to see such a great positive attitude over the long voyage!

Thank you and as already have been said, very good editing with no music, only natural sound as it was. Than you and all the best to your dad.
That was really well done! I appreciate a video with clean language 👍🏻. Blessings from Nova Scotia.
My daughter is 8 now, and she's starting to get interested in going out with me "to see the dolphins" :-) I hope she will be enjoying the sea as much as I do, and as she grows she may become a skilled sailor too, who knows As a dad, I am happy to see you and your dad being able to spend this valuable time together, a memory that no one can take away from you anymore. Thanks for sharing! Greets from Lisbon, Portugal, Frank

This was a GREAT film. Real sailing and real emotion. I wonder if I'd ever have the guts to do a 44-day passage? It seems like you got the best crew ever.
Great story, well done !
Nice to watch thanks!
Thank you! You made my day!
I'm from San Diego and Orcas Island so I enjoyed so much sharing this passage with you and you are adorable.

By far, the very best sailing video out there!!! I watched your AMAZING adventure before bed last night and was dreaming sailing until morning. Yes, with MANY questions in my mind about your voyage. I'm not sure if you realize just how many people, like myself, yearn to do this..., but life doesn't always grant us all of our hopes. I grew up on the water in Victoria and sailed on and off, but now I'm limited to watching on KZread. You're one spunky lady with an awesome Dad. You've inspired me to continue to look for someone to help me continue to learn and one day maybe live aboard. My dream. Thank you
Congrats! Cutting board Starboard, gotta love it.

Awesome video about real sailing. You are a a true sailor. With a little bit of luck, I'll be sailing the NE coast this summer with my daughter who is about your age. Thanks very much.
Great job!
Amazing video showing true comradarie between father and daughter. Very touching! As well, you have a natural demeanor for videography and telling your story without pretense. I really like the way you interact with the camera...and, subsequently, with the viewer. Very photogenic...

Excellent. I spent a lot of time sailing with my daughter too.
Great job I think on the spectra line to backup the weak shroud!!I was impressed when your dad ask you about the routing and you said run it through the bottom👍That’s how I would have done it,if you would have ran through the top it would have pulled the turnbuckle back towards the winch and got slack when released.
Great video! Thank you so much for posting it. I'm interested in hearing a follow up on your rigging problem.
Enjoyed ur video very very much ❤❤❤❤, it is pure sailing with out the editing, I love it like this. Congratulations 🎈🎉 for a greatest passage . From a sailor in Florida ❤❤❤
