It is amazing you don’t get hit in the face with all those loose lines, etc. handing off your main/boom. That is a lot going on. Stay safe.

Too much THEATRE! SPAM

Tips for crossings from an OG ... Unclutter the cockpit especially at night and inclement weather, Line Maintenance is mucho impotante, and read Donald Street in ur spare time.

I think it should be every sailors goal to have a wall full of tattered flags. Wish we saved all of ours.

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, primarily because you’re so considerate and so kind to each other. Be safe, and I look forward to seeing your journey

Yeah. Who checks the END of a video before uploading. Probably not many. "Reworks" are often better anyway. Congratulations on the new dingy!

Jeez guys, ya gotta learn to reef off the wind. Huge advantages, not the least of which are lower apparent wind and more stable seas. We reef a 47 footer with a 60’ mast anywhere from 70 to 120° off. And just one of us does it. The only time we ever reef upwind, is if we’re actually beating upwind, in which case we usually run off a bit.

We know Boca well!! We call that type of sailing Sporty!! Hope Beau is tethered.

Tip for lettuce , wrap it in tinfoil - it lasts longer

Lol. I was just going to tell them about the foil for the lettuce. Let's hope they read your comment in time❤

You haven't been sailing then...

I sat outside that office for 4 hours last year waiting to check in! Not sure how far behind your videos are, but hopefully pass you guys by. We're out in Staniel Cay right now! Met Beau when he helped work on our cat two years ago in St Thomas! If ya see us, feel free to come say hi! - SV Saguaro

Wow what a sail! Happy Sunday. It went from 87 yesterday to 55 this morning. What’s up with that. Get some rest and go enjoy yourselves. Hey by the way, right at sunset look west under the moon and to the right of Jupiter and you’ll see the comet. It’s right above the horizon and only visible for a short period until it drops. Try binoculars.

Greeat video, I really like the sailing, THANKS. Remember to VOTE. 💙🗽💚👍😇

Wow - amazing footage. That was not easy. Thank you for being real. Planning on going next month. Passed you in the ICW by FT. P.

A quick tip with the lettuce. keep it fully wrapped it in tin foil “aluminium foil” in the fridge. then just take off what ever full leaves you need, DO NOT CUT LEAVES ON THE MAIN LETUCE remove them as requited. re-wrap and keep in the fridge, and it will last ages. Hope it helps. Terry.

I was trying to look up lettuce cooking recipes to get the stuff to last longer. There's a few but it's like the lettuce is added to what's already cooked. I was hoping for a chutney or a type of lettuce dish that could be 'canned' or mason jar stored to keep as long as other dishes. I'll be advising folks of your tin foil plan. Thanks.

@paulhellewell9468

Another tip I saw was not to add dressing until just before serving it.

I hope I explained it ok. The thing is to cover the lettuce in tinfoil when you get it and put it in the fridge. When you want lettuce, unwrap and take it one full leaves at a time. Don't cut the main lettuce. Thanks for the tip also Paul. much appreciated. Terry.

Rather than wrapping the lettuce tin foil, wrap it in a paper towel or two and then put it into a plastic container or plastic bag. It lasts weeks. Same for all leafy veges, but especially lettuce, spinach, rocket, etc

Nothing so refreshing as an unscheduled swim stop! Thanks for the video!

Hey guys great to see you back in the Bahamas your video. Didn't complete it's upload and stopped at 2754 will check in tomorrow to see how it end's 1230 am time to sleep love you guys lots of love from Brisbane australia

Exactly 🤣

Great to see you both heading back to the Bahamas!! Try adding a downhaul to get better control of the headsail. You can stay at the mast and haul on the downhaul with your foot on the halyard to control the speed of the drop. I know everyone believes roller furling is the solution, but maybe not. Best wishes and great sailing, Jeff and Julie s/v OoLaLa Westsail 32 hull 81#

There's almost no reason to ever have your traveler that high and certainly not in those conditions.

Thanks for taking us with you! Love your new dinghy! 😎❤️😁😎❤️😁

Ahhhhh. Take me with you!!!!❤❤❤loved the vid…take care guys….

You need to get your roller furling for the jib. Getting your halyard caught in the prop is a mistake that can cause the loss of the vessel. You are a shorthanded crew.

I have loved watching the two you for years. You have come so far as sailors. Nice new ride!

Great sailing video! You had me at the edge of my seat. You and Saorise have come along way both literally and figuratively!⛵

WOW! The Boca Inlet was kind to you guys, very tame! Safe travels!

Charts. Charts. Nautical term for maps. ;-) Sail on. We live the Berry Islands. Glad you didn’t get stuck for weeks at Freeport.

Too bad you couldn't remember the name of Evan's boat........Dacia. How are all the dogs doing?

Looks like you may be learning the lessons we learned...the hard way. My husband was a purist for our first two ventures to the Bahamas: hanked on sails, no dodger, autopilot and nor refrigeration. I don't know about your refrigeration, but I have a suggestion about lettuce and other vegetables that wilt quickly. Cut the bottom 1/2 inch off the bottom and stick it in a container with some water. Pull the plastic bag up around from the bottom and loosely twist the top. In refrigeration or not, it'll help. Things like lemons wrap in paper towels and put in a hammock or basket. By our third trip we (he) had wised up, as well as gotten older and wanting more comfort, we ventured out with all upgrades but the refrigeration. Life was better. I would chide you about going overboard in bad conditions without a line tied on your body. Fair winds from now on.

I like the statement, there are no roads so you just turn. Except going to dock, that about explains it.

Thanks for the video. Must be nice to be in the Bahamas. Yea for the new dinghy.

Sailing Sunday is back in The Bahamas too. Bobby from Sailing Doodles too..

Always good. I think you have the main sheet on the wrong end of the traveller and can de-power some if you switch it, whilst still being efficient with better sail shape ? Pearson 35 Valkyrie III

Wow Great episode ❤

Sailing the Gulf stream is weird for sail trim. With the wind and current both trying to make you slide all the things that are "normal" for sail trim go out the window. So hard to figure out the best VMG without fancy plotters which I know you guys don't have. Navionics FINALLY got night mode. I figure in about 5 years they will add VMG. lol. And I definitely need a little back to the future sign "where we're going, we don't need roads". That's happening.

That was fun 😂

Hi, Beau and Brandy. It's great to see you heading for the beautiful Bahamas. Question: Do you know where Onelife is? They seem to have fallen off the face of the earth. I'm praying they are okay. Thank You safe sailing. Hugs.

Mistakes get made, and it's not about making them.. but rather how they are handled. Beau and Brandy are extremely level headed and a great team. It's easy to allow yourself to get frustrated in the heat of those moments and end up making consecutive mistakes. They did great.
