Still was exciting to see Loon on another channel. If you see him, be sure to say hi and get him on video. He's a good guy as I'm sure you've seen his videos, if not, he's very informative. Stay safe, looking forward to crossing videos.

You are in the arena with Brian Trautman of @SVDELOS in keeping us in the moment. This goes for your positions chiefs as well - everyone has good camera rapport and keeps us up to speed with what is going on. How you all do this at times with guests on board is impressive.

    Excellent video again Thanks Steve and Capt Paul. Nice spot you are docked in Fort Lauderdale near the Hilton. Have a great two weeks before your crossing. I am jumping ahead a couple weeks right now as I had watched esysman SuperYachts just before this video. You are already in Monaco and you are in esysman Monaco part 2 video already docked up. You actually show up 4 times in his video. Looking from stern your view is well how would I put it Looking a the shitty cubicles and rear view of the stands luckily you've a big screen to watch the race unless you are lucky enough to get out in person to watch race. Still You are privileged to be docked so close to the race. Saw 4 to 5 crew members working cleaning up. Looking forward to your video of this approx time line I figure few weeks maybe month . Okay looking forward to next video.

    After docking we all piled in an Uber and went to customs and immigration in Port Everglades. Sometimes they’ll do a surprise inspection and be waiting on the dock

    In ports where we have a concern yes we’ll use them but most super yacht marinas work hard to keep the rats at bay.
