1. I think I agree with the sentiment of retensioning the mast backstay. It's worth the experiment at least.

   You can get under some of those not-quite bridges by using your mast and a whisker pole as a crane and winch, but you need an improvised seabag to that, if you don't have something suitable heavy on board, such as a dingy.

2. Good job on the windsurfing. 💪🏼

3. sam cant you just add a cringle and a cunningham to pull the luff down?

4. Had to stop watching this, the audio was just awful. Don't know why an experienced YouTuber does not use a dead cat.

5. sam i’m only 12 but i’m gonna live on a boat like you one day. i live on a boat with my family right now but i’m gonna be like you

6. Cool painting, might be interesting to make a T-shirt with the image on it… Nice to see you underway, drifting along the ICW, wondering if the bike motor could be easily hacked to work as windlass. Kind of a fun challenge, was also thinking a bike trip computer could be hacked to be a chain counter for the windlass. At least the magnet and sensor part, that could be used by an Arduino based counter/logger… If you ever get bored, learning to program Arduino based embedded system could allow you to do all sorts of interesting boat projects(custom auto-pilot, drift sensor, engine overheat, salinity/water temp sensors, bilge level,…. The little mcu's and sensors are now really inexpensive and quite powerful. Perhaps some of your followers could collaborate on some of the projects as well. Slack groups might be one way to go if you ever tackle multi person distributed projects…

7. Dude, what can't you do?! Musician/artist/sailor who is an avid reader and can sew!

8. Is it truly a Sam video if he doesn’t drill a hole in the boat?

9. Hi Sam, those plastic nav lights that you had clipped onto the steel tubing look awesome, what brand are they and where can I buy them…. awesome video clips, thanks so much

10. You gonna be near tampa?

11. love the videos Sam! keep them coming!

12. Another great adventure! Great positive attitude and skills to keep things going. Been watching since the L.A. to Hawaii trip. Thank you Sam!

13. Great video.

14. Hey man come by SV misfit and say hello

15. One of the lessons Sam teaches is that sailing doesn’t need to cost a lot of money! Boats under 29’ are fairly inexpensive and with a little elbow grease and decent sails, can provide incredible adventure

16. Hey Sam! It was great running into you in our local waters! I'm glad we opted for our small boat that day. we also have an Ericson 29. My better half was just hoisting the main on our little day boat when I spotted a Bayfield with a Torqeedo on it and figured it had to be you lol.
    If you ever pass through here again and need anything (tools, sailrite machine etc..), feel free to hit me up, happy to help.

17. I as thinking about the ebike & it's weight, if you pulled the battery and loaded it separately would the bike's weight might be low enough to take aboard.

18. Put some Vaseline on all your Zippers so they won't dry rot and zip up easier !

19. I have a Heybike Ranger as well. There is a whole set of menus they don't tell you about where you can change the amperage out to the motor, the wheel diameter size the computer thinks it's running, the number of electric output settings, etc

20. @14:24 motorists cursing. Question is it common to have some led flood lights on a boat for your night sail or would nightvision goggles be more useful ?

21. Don't forget to look on those island Sam for pirates treasure ship mate 🙂👍⛵⛵⛵⛵🧘🌅🏖️💰☕

22. Huge fan of you and your abilities. No matter what goes wrong you always wear a smile…!!! We're starting a sailing school here in Tarpon Springs. We have the Prams, racing dinghies, and were looking for a Com-Pac Yachts 20' Eclipse for adults. It's the only shallow water trailerable singlehanded setup boat I can find that has a cuddy in case of rain. The only thing we are lacking is insurance quotes. We have been in limbo for 6 weeks still waiting. We want to introduce sailing to young kids at a price that is reasonable. We are a 501(C)3 so we will hopefully get support from locals and businesses in order to make sailing affordable to all. When we get going we would love to see if you're willing to sail this way, we'll help with costs to speak when we have a community benefit cookout. Keep up the good work and please stay safe. We own Telltale Imagery Production Co. as well. You can see a few of our video's on https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbNGcuJOQQPZoOhsfeBQnbQ (TellTale Imagery On YouTube).

23. "Could you open the bridge for me?" 😄Good luck Sam! Waiting for your next ocean crossing videos!🤙⛵🍀

24. Was also wondering if a golf cart motor could be hacked into a boat like yours, probably a few motors sitting around in carts that end up lightly used. Wonder what other motors could be repurposed… Are you heading over to watch the starship launch?

25. SpongeBob has a friend you never hear about who is a talking plum. PlumbBob… but he always hangs out around the lowest point in Bikini Bottom, so they never really talk about him.

26. You are the reason I got my boating license and learned to sail! Thanks 🙏

27. Cool bike

28. I've always thought of a spinnaker as having a physical pole to give you the necessary "stiffy" so to speak (distance from jib mast plus proper levelling) but haven't done anything sail wise but watch your channel for decades. New pure BEV "polestar powered" eboat made in Sweden but I'm sure not inexpensive. (Candela?)

29. Seein all the devastation still – people's pride and joy all smashed up – makes me quite emotional, but Sam has such great spirit it's infectious.

30. I hope you go meet Key west waterman. You both have a relaxed attitude and voice that is a pleasure to listen to.

31. Sam are you going to sail this boat across the Atlantic once you have it fixed up.

32. What is the status of your shop? Caretaker or rented out? Enjoyed those episodes from the shop.

33. "It's not a Sam Holmes video unless Sam is drilling holes in his boat."

34. It was nice to meet you at the Westland Boatyard. I'll be following you down south soon.

35. I guess you've been hacked by the response not only to me but the same response to numerous other comments made to you… bummer.

36. What happened to the bigger catamaran and gong to the Keys? Did you abandon that for the 29 ft. Sailboat?

37. Friends don't let friends eat farmed salmon.

38. Thanks for the video! I love your adventures. We wait for you in the Mediterranean!

39. Sam is installing an autopilot in a couple of hours while solo sailing. Me? Well I’m still trying to decide what brand of autopilot to buy after a year of research and procrastination!

40. thank you Sam, i agree with many of your fine commentators listed below.
