Plecare la mare în sfârșit! După mai bine de o lună de pregătiri, de a studia cu atenție fișierele meteorologice, de îngrijorare și de plimbare, ancora este ridicată și micuța navă își iese din golful Chesapeake. Nordul vioi ne întâmpină afară, devenind moderat NE pe măsură ce intrăm în Gulf Stream a doua zi. Aerurile slabe și vânturile în contra aproape blochează progresul pentru o zi, în timp ce curentul rapid ne pornește spre nord-est. Mă tem să nu reușim să ieșim din flux înainte ca un front rece care se apropie rapid să lovească.

Caraibe de Crăciun, partea 1 | Ep. 194
first, do we still do that?
Someone in Maine won that Billion Dollar Lotto last night. Hope they were not Canadian lolz
Nice
I think this is the first time I noticed you’re a lefty.
Another enjoyable video, thanks Kevin.
Kevin at 1:30 you showed a green marker that you said showed 2-3 knots of current but that isn't so. The coast guard has just come out with self-tending buohys. They are computer controlled and simply leave their station and go in to the nearest facility for routine maintenance. Pretty cool, huh?
At 10:30 the clouds in front of the sun looks like a tall ship 🙂 Enjoy your videos!
Love that sea shanty! Sent you a small present Kevin, hope you are shacked up all warm and comfortable.
I hope you make it okay! Puerto Rico sounds nice.
C-mon Kevin 12:50 is just a snack.
What's fer desert?
Great timing on the Gulf stream (the "Great Conveyor" as I referred to it) . It is amazing how things change so quickly as you cross it. Well done my friend!
I grew up in Virginia Beach, it was fun watching your video sailing by. And by chance I am wearing your HtSO t-shirt today. As always, looking foward to your next installment.
"keep the reef in tiil you've cleared the lee of the land" Prudent as always Kevin 👍🏼
How long are you staying in Puerto Rico or the Caribbean? I live in fajardo and we keep our boat at Puerto del Rey Marina
Great video. Thank You for relieving my brain from the reality. Much Love
I wonder where are you now…relaxing I hope, with a cold one?
It’s a lot less bover with a hover ! (Craft!)
Morning Kevin.
Out of curiosity. How old are your tan sails.
They sure do some work!
gary in Japan.
Cap'n, as long as those ships don't hit you, you're doing fine.
I knew a man who's boat was sliced when a tug with tow altered course close off his bow. Two souls lost, one survivor. Vessel lost.
An acquaintance was hit fine on the bow in a fog. CG found likely vessel at port with wreckage snagged in bow anchors. Foreign skipper denied it even when confronted with the evidence. Neither of these were within TSS.
Twice, I've survived near hits. I do not like coastal cruising. I prefer standing well off the beach. These too not in, but near TSS.
Crossing a current, I've always figured its best to steer the best wind angle and take the offset. This rather than steering the offset, if that means longer time spent in the current.
A wind triangle helps solve which is best for the conditions.
Lefty he can't sing the blues…
I really love your channel because you always somehow manage to paint all the sailing experience with beauty and a little of poetry as well.
👍👍👍
Thanks for showing some shots of the meals you made. I’m always curious about what and how other sailors eat underway.
Thanks! Enjoy your channel
I'm always amazed at how you tackle these big passages with no engine. Fair winds!
Thanks
Such wear and tear, all that rockin and rolling!
Check out the Norwegian "Storm Weather Shanty Choir"….
Had the hand issue myself. Was glad I brought some mechanics gloves but still has skin open up in the December cold.
Very nice. Little hints like watching for the accidental gybe in a narrow channel may seem like throwaway comments but are real experience sharing for some of us.
Kevin I am a first time watcher of your adventure. Guess what I am signed on,. This channel is somewhat different than some others. Very refreshing.
