TIME TO RUN - SwT 115 - SHIPMENT ARRIVED AND PLANS CHANGES FAST
It's time to run! Now as I have the shipment onboard and looking at the weather it's definitely a fast decision to be made. Finally got my new anchor and sorted out the mystery with my friend's bike. Supporting friends via satellite as they suddenly are in the path of a potential hurricane also aiming towards me here in San Andres. So fast decisions to be made and most likely sailing out of here in a few days. Taking advantage of the front system to give me good sailing wind.
The next episode will be delayed as I don't have time right now to edit and also will be out sailing. Still have things to share from this week and might even save the sailing to its own episode after preparing for the worst episode.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING AND SUBSCRIBING!

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:
I`m sailing around the world in my Bavaria 55 Cruiser, making videos whenever I have time for it. Most of the time I sail singlehanded but occasionally I do have sailing friends onboard. Still in the Caribbean due to Covid and was supposed to be in Asia by now.
Even though this is season 4 on youtube I did not make that many videos in the beginning. Before full-time sailing, I have sailed several seasons in the Med prior to this, and obviously also in Scandinavia. I have been traveling the world before and have also been an active regatta sailor for decades. I had my first sailboat at age 7 and have been sailing ever since. Also, more than 10 years of experience as a captain in Search and Rescue at sea in Norway.
PLEASE BE KIND IN THE COMMENTS!
I like to consider my returning viewers as friends. Rude comments and bad behavior equals banning from this channel. I'm more in for quality viewers than volume. I'm just a normal person sharing my travel adventure through my eyes and experience from my perspective! Remember how I do things that might work for me might not work for you. It might even not be the correct way to do things, and I don't have the blueprint either. I'm not perfect and nobody is. The day I believe I know it all and don't think I can learn new things I should go ashore. I enjoy sharing my mistakes as well my knowledge and experience without trying to teach you anything.
Discussions around topics designs and sailing are always welcome. Personal attacks are from my perspective so low it qualifies for being kicked out of my Chanel permanently without warnings.

Hey Thomas- I knew you'd find the Bicycle and a solution.., 'You're-Outlook-is-Contagious'! Having a crewmember aboard is great, and I'm looking forward to your upcoming Sail & Adventures. Great Anchors and Explanations, too!

Great episode Thomas. I know you'll make all the right decisions on where to sail. Be careful my friend. 🤝🤝🤝👍👍
I really dig this guy. Video and information is great. Fair winds Thomas. Will be poking for you again soon.
Great anchor. Never used it in anything other than a stiff breeze but it sets immediately, and always comes up with half the seabed on it. Had more than one comment about the bar shape and I think that's the key to it always setting. The swivel is also the best I've ever seen, for straight loads and side loads.
What a great video. Thanks for sharing your journey with us again Thomas. With all those items you took on, you will be like an Amazon boat heading to Panama! Grin. Stay safe and wishing you good luck with the tropical weather.
Well dang, I did not catch the episode you took down. I had no internet due to IAN, were in part of the eye. No fun. Thanks Thomas, enjoy Panama, if I was younger, I'd be living there. Holy smokes, that's a lot of money.???
Hello Thomas glad you found the bike and I pray for your safety during the storm don't take any chances. God bless you and thanks for sharing your early Christmas presents you got LOL that was a pretty big shipment
Hey Thomas I love your content it got me through a difficult time the hospital, put my mind in a different place which I needed. Thank you ,keep the awesome videos going. Right on🤙🤙🤙✌️

Have a safe sail to Panama Thomas, great video as usual
It’s so good watching your vids while it’s poring rain here in Sydney seeing you enjoying the sunshine. It’s spring here and still cold and wet so 15 mins of vid of you enjoying paradise makes it easier to get wet and to work keep up the good work
Heard nothing but good about those anchors, let us know in the future how you feel about them after some time using. BTW love the subtility of playing Mama Zula 8 minutes in... I loved your original 114 episode. I for sure would have brought a tray of beers over if i'd be around ;-) Dutch proverb: Ze kunnen beter over je fiets lullen dan over je lul fietsen! I'll let you do the google translate to Norwegian yourself. Just be yourself Thomas, haters will hate anyway, but that's on them, and not on you nor your friends.

Thank you so much my friend. Funny you actually picked up this detail. I often add som secret message or subtitle details in my videos. Dutch humour and mindset is pretty close to the Norwegian.

well hope you managed to tuck in for Ian,it hit us in Florida really hard massive damage to our west coast. 😕 my home located more or less on the east coast still had 65 mile an hour winds .The flooding has been horrible. All is well for myself,but so many people displaced.Such a tragedy 😢. Can't imagine sailing anywhere near one of these.

Wow another episode packed with great content! :) It looks like everything is coming together at the same time for you. So that's good! Hopefully the timing is good and you can safely make your way to Panama. I hope your friends are safe on their journey as well. . Now that you have enjoyed Cap'n Rick's bicycle for a bit, are you tempted to get one for yourself? It looks pretty cool! Seems like a great way to do some sight seeing. :) . Anyway, looking forward to your next episode! Stay safe! Cheers.
Looking forward to the Panama voyage and crossing Thomas How is Wanderful going have you heard? Thankyou
