1. When and where is Kimmy and the new boat dude ??

2. I sympathize with you in those rough seas, wholeheartedly! Here is why. The scariest time in my life was in a 180 foot round bottom ship (buoy tender) in a storm with over 100 knot winds and 25 foot seas (and sometimes higher). Quite often we would be looking up at the top of the waves 10 to 15 feet ABOVE us being down in the trough and the bridge was 20 feet above the water line (you figure it out). It was one of the Nor-Easters off of the Cape Hatteras North Carolina coast (they are infamous up that way). We actually lost the anemometer, It broke and blew off the stick while it was pegged at 100 knots – just the wires dangling was all that was left. The surfce search radar antenna buckled and bent down sideways. At one point the clinometer had us at 52 degrees to the starboard and we stayed there for close to a minute. We were sure that we were going over all the way. That would have been the deaths of a 76 man crew for sure. I was on the bridge holding on to the steel cable trays above my head as was the Quartermaster on watch, both of us staring at the clinometer frozen with fear. The seaman on watch at the wheel was tied in with nylon lines to keep him in front of the wheel. There was no other way he could have stayed there. It was like that for 3 hours before it settled down to under 60 knots and 10 to 12 foot seas. The ocean can be a very rough master.

3. can you have internet with that phone?

4. excellent. narration was perfect.. fair winds.. g

5. What a great bunch of folks……Seems like sailors are just a happy, adventurous, optimistic group and to somebody from landlocked Wyoming, I like that….I have, however, been on a 28` Buccaneer in SF Bay and sailed under the GG Bridge….I have flown over it in a Cessna 182, walked across it, Sailed under it, ridden a bicycle across it, and, of course, driven across it….So that bucket list is pretty much complete.

6. Amazing videos!

7. Meteor was like space junk (old broken sat, rocket stage or the like) being decommissioned in the pacific in the space graveyard.

8. I was wondering did anybody ruffle some feathers? In a trip like that where 5 people have to live together and work together day in and day out, then you have the captan and the owner together. The good thing is that boat seems to be the best for trip like that, smooth!

9. Oh Shit. Wheres my keys

10. …..and where were the heavy weather and big waves…??? ….only saw some commercial for iridium…..

11. This comment is dedicated to the algorithm… and to that food on your chin in that one shot

12. Shit Hot job guys and a really captivating vid.

13. Man props to Jake, what a tough sunovabitch.

14. He looks like a big douchbag full of tattoos.

15. Sub titular en Espanol gracias

16. I love the sound of Seagulls in background.

17. Nice vid and iridium info etc. Dont know why but more ads in this than any other youtube video Ive ever watched.

18. So you can smell California and it smells like garbage. That sounds about right.

19. Just found your channel today.Fantastic!!! I loved it!! y'all make a great crew. I learned many very good lessons and gained some great ideas watching all four episodes. I plan on incorporating some of what I have learned on my own "smaller" sailboat. One thing I might pass on to you guy's that I have learned. That is when you have landed your fish on deck instead of beating the fish with your mallet causing a mess to your boat and teak decks. Along with the nothing less than heroic fish hook injury. And having done nearly the same thing. I rolled out of my bunk to go on watch and the pole stowed on the deck beneath me. The boat rolled I stumbled getting dressed and stepped on the pole then drove the hook threw the bottom of my foot and with some help from my shipmate he pushed and twisted the hook and my foot so he could cut off the barb then back the hook threw my foot and out the same way that it came in. and for the rest of the voyage I hobbled around the boat with a galley sponge taped to the bottom of my foot. Lesson Learned. So latter I was taught to poor some Alcohol into the fishes gills. The fish almost instantly gets drunk and passes out. Then with a very sharp knife you take off his head. The fish does not suffer very long and you save yourself from serious injury and the boat remains much cleaner. Just something I found that works. Thank you again for a great evening watching your documentary of the voyage!!

20. Great job Captain …

21. Tobasco easy to make ferment you own chilli peppers with salt or put into a blender with salt. Then mix with distilled vingear. Leave to stand few days then filter out the bits.

22. Arr, we all love to spin a good yarn!

23. What a beautiful boat

24. How can you not bring enough Tabasco? They are small and fit everywhere!

25. How are you out of flour? It is a staple!

26. This is why I have a 26ft. Amazing video

27. Man I crossed a small section of the Atlantic Ocean and those waves were unrelenting and terrifying. I believe on God Almighty 100 %.
    Marvellous works .

28. I don't know what is with all these sailing vloggers. They apparently think we want, actually prefer, to see their face – instead of the boat, the seas, the sails, ANYTHING but the sailors. We didn't do a youtube search for 'videos of sailors'……!!!!

29. So disgusting video. Try not to be much time in front of the camera, and show the important tings. I think so a dumb video………..

30. Fascinating. Love your channel. Epic adventures. Cheers

31. Nice crew and boat

32. Planning ahead with reefs really paid off!

33. When are the powers that be going to stop California, Oregon and Washington from dumping so much garbage into the sea?

34. Thanks for the great marinade recipe

35. seems like that type of sailing would be awesome for your core …

36. Fantastic series, James. Real good.

37. I admire your courage but hell no for me

38. I am sure the catamaran couldn't handle the big wave.

39. Cool Iridium unit. How does one get the internet.?

40. Whales & seals, the seals of the Farallon Islands – the Farallons.

41. When and how do you upload to YouTube.?

42. Good Job! This was a great series,,, you touched on every aspect and I learned a lot. Excellent!
