This KZread channel is a record of my attempt to be free and live a life out there on the Oceans. All I know is my dream of sailing endlessly and exploring this planet. It has consumed me for 3 years now and has been documented here.
I have worked so hard in the film industry as a 1st Assitant camera operator with IATSE 667 and its time I made my own movie. A movie about a man who up and leaves his life as a cinematographer and heads south on his floating home camera in hand in search of freedom... In search of an intentional life at sea. I have spent years working on films sets all over this country learning how feature films are made and I intend to use this experience to make a truelly entertaining KZread channel. Follow along on my journey and help me with this huge undertaking. Make a comment subscribe and become a part of this sailing adventure. Now is the time to do what must be done when SAILING IS IN YOUR BLOOD.

Hey, I had the same situation recently in Colorado about a pump shorting me. I filed a complaint online with the state and the next day got a call from the department official who went on to tell me they appreciate the input and now this station on a "short list" meaning they are going to be checked regularly.
The very first line of this video is. Yes he bought a boat in Ontario but no hell no thousands of degrees no, did he not fix it up enough to go on the epic adventure we have all watched for the past year and a half 90% of the videos are of him fixing something that has broken on his boat or that he has personally fucked up and created a situation for himself This is not a sailing channel This is a channel saying what not to do if you ever own a boat Number one being educate yourself and prepare for every voyage This would’ve solved 70% of his issues
I think this is probably example number 100 of your airheaded and ill preparedness to be in the ocean as you currently are Why was your jib not secured properly? If you had secured everything properly for the crossings that you’re on, you would not have been knocked down and would not have flown in and destroyed all of your electronics. I’ve actually stopped contributing to your patron because of your very poor judgment 90% of your situations were created by yourself. I seriously think you should sell your boat and go back to shore.

Assuming you wind up passing through Miami and the Florida Keys on the way to the Carib/VI’s If you return home via the same basic route you should qualify for the North American Great Loop Association burgee. It’s a bucket list trip for many people and an achievement in its own right. Check it out 🤙🏼

Where are you now? Todd rom Andante.
You do know when hurricane season is, how bad it is supposed to be this year, and that you simply don’t have the speed to outrun one. Right?
Bro, I have been trying to contact you. When you're back in town. I need your help with blazing a trail.
Mission accepted. I'm your man!!!

He’s in the hood
Who wants a bunch of drug addicts and floating trash heaps in view? Anyone?
Oh this is funny. Every time somthing happens that takes some handling you grab your phone and start punching it. I taught a class a Broward Community College in the late seventies. Called “sailing Broward to the Bahamas”. I ended up having to change from a regular class room to a lecture hall with over 75 people in it. We had no: GPS, no computers of any kind with apps, no chart plotter or MFD, no Windy or Predict Wind. No decent weather system of any accuracy. And once you left port, you really were on your own. You real HAD to know how to NAVIGATE. I have crossed the stream hundreds of times. About the first 25 or so in my little 26’ outboard powered sloop. And over half of them from Ft Lauderdale. Cruised tens of thousands of ocean miles in my “bigger” boasts, to 46’. The first 20 or so yrs were without the afore mentioned equipment. But you bet, I was first in line to buy a GPS. And mush latter, a plotter. Now yes, you are right. Don’t mess with the GS in N weather. Have been caught out a few times and it was no fun at all. Even in my larger well found boats. And yes, even now with the reefs in shambles, the Bahamas are amazing.
No wake zone????
You should visit Freeport also watchinv ur vids made me sed more places in my country i havent even seen yet 😅 I have been in the capital more than 5 times but i havent been all over. I wanted u to visit Freeport since thats the city where i live
Over here in Freeport its has more organised areas than in thge capital
Known how expensive it is in Nassau. Why are you there? Lol😅
Dammm click bait again !!!
What a wimp !!! Lots of boats 36 ft don’t have windlass gezzzzz !!!
With full chain? Somehow I think you don't know what your talking about..
A wimp eh? So what happens when your dragging anchor in a blow with out a windlass? What am I going to pull up 200 ft of chain by hand? Just the tension alone in 25 knot gusts makes it impossible with an 11 ton vessel. Sure you can day sail a 36 with rope Rhode and no windlass. You would be a fool not a wimp to go 1000 nm with out a windlass there armchair captain😂😂
Enjoyed the episode.
Nice! I can hardly wait to start following in your wake, starting this fall.
Looks like you need one of those foldable bikes to tackle some of the walking.
Definable a must!! Of one of those E scooters??
Why didn't try Great Harbor Cay which is the main island in The Berries?
I was there check out my swimming with sharks video.. North end anyway. I wish I could stay here forever. But as you know a sailor must move on eventually in search of the never ending horizon..
Great Vids!!!!
I seen boats sailing with a big kite in front pulling them! Maybe something like that as a backup will be great for you!
Maybe!! I'll look into that!!
Looks like a junk yard now off of McCaurthur causeway.
The issues are with the irresponsible boat owners. They make it hard for the ones who are conscience with the environment and being cool about the surroundings.
Kudos to you Mike for getting out there and actually doing it. Don’t ever listen to past comments criticizing you about what and how you do it. I like your content and enjoy watching the victories and at times the failures. It’s the journey I’m here for.
I appreciate your sentiment.. even after all these days out here sailing I'm still in the saloon looking at charts and thinking about something bigger and farther. For now I'm going to finish what I started. I know now what needs to be done to do what I've always really wanted to do. Sail around the world..
Good video Captain Michael. I’m hoping to be on the water in the next month. I will be sticking to the gulf coast for the rest of this year, then I’ll probably get to the Atlantic coast early next season.
Make sure if you see my hull come by for sundowners!! Fair winds cap! Glad you will be joining us all out here!!
Is that a new GoPro? The picture and colors were great. It wouldn’t be an adventure if everything went according to plan. You really should spend the money on a good inverter. 1000w Victron will last you a long time.
This is my test boat! I said I'd go out and learn about about sailboats.. I've learned a few lessons..😊. My next sailboat I plan to apply everything I've learned. Then and only then will we do the circumnavigation. I'm starting to get it.. what to do and what not to do. It's been my honor to bring all along. I hope we all are learning something in every video.. I know I have..
@@sailingEV888 that’s a big goal. It will be fun
I’m gobsmacked to learn you didn’t do the research regarding Chubb Cay ahead of time. It’s so unlike you. 😂😂😂😂
You know me..😂😂😅😅 Il learn one of these days..
Great video as usual. The more I see you out there on your boat, the more I can't wait to be there myself on my boat. Next season buddy I'll keep an eye out for you. P.S., I have 2 spare inverters on my boat just in case. lol
Lets go 🎉🎉🎉
i just liked you into the 401 ! the Macdonald Cartier Freeway !
Out of all the people in the Bahamas to show you around.. Come on this makes no sense. You are in the ghetto.
You know the reality your broken down cheap ass boat they don't want to see in their million-dollar condo. I don't blame him I mean these nomads living out in the water don't have any money they take their droppings around and think people want to look at them when they got a million dollar view do you want to see that broken down body has hell no I wouldn't want in front of my house😮
anchor where one wants , they don't own the water...
You need to anchor near NoName Harbour. Your welcome there
You mean they dont want quasi homeless leftist freeloading in miami waters ? Who would've thought it was true ?😅😂
Why not get cheap dock slip?
Peeps in buffalo sends love
People hate for 0 reason, in the grand scheme of things, where is their sailboat?😂😂
14:55 dude that sucks, goodthing u and ur stuff is good
8:01 glad you promote other youtubers like intoodeep instead of getting butt hurt, great videos man, i dream of sailing all day long in school😂😂
He was in the ghetto the whole video... there're much nicer places
You would be surprised how many people want to see and hang out in the hood
They do really robbing y'all. It's just $1.75 times 2 to go around the island. You would end up spending $6 to go and come max.
Maybe I was taken advantage of? That bus charged me 15$!!!!
@sailingEV888 That hurt me knowing that. I mean, I've literally got angry like it happened to me. I wish there was more policing on the services over here. I thought you would have gotten the best, seeing you were with the locals. You should have caught the bus with a local and sat on it until it went straight around the island. Bus fees in Nassau are $1.75. In Freeport, you could send up to $15 because of the size of the island. If you catch a number 10a, you will go out west, I live out west. All buses intersect downtown. So if you go around on 3 buses you could see the whole island. $1.75 x 3.
I love the way you asked for patronage. You got class.
Dude, if it wasn't for "the people" the three dimensional proponent of society, the delusional, demented and delirious entitled 0.001 % would have everything their way. If a boat is derelict then drag it to the graveyard. You have to be able to anchor your boat anywhere in the USA as long as it not in the way. You have to be willing to fight those who are getting in the way of FREEDOM.
This is a nice intro to the Bahamas. I know kimani, he is a true hustler and business man in the community.
Torpedo's do an excellent job.
Class warfare
Sailors can't resist free balls.
