1. Special thanks to Andre and Gemma for hosting me and videos! Here is their outstanding online paragliding courses https://andrebandarra.thinkific.com

2. Good point on the spinniker pole – keep it perpendicular to the wind and lifted so that the foot of the kite is as level as possible. They are effective downwind and very pretty. If you want to get rich, figure out a cleat that automatically plays out spinniker sheet as the boat heels excessively to avoid broaching.

3. You are awesome …. channel should be called "Sam Holmes the Sky's the Limit Sailing Canvas and Wing" .. Too bad they didn't have bigger swells to look at while soaring? Oh well…Loved the episode.😊

4. Love the flight and insta 360 footage! Also appreciate you brining in more dock handling and sailing notes of experience like flying the spinnaker. One of your best videos! Dean

5. Im jealous

6. Good stuff Sam 🙂

7. The paragliding was cool, so neat that have have that skill and can enjoy it!

8. Nazaré is a Awsome place .. I think you should show the Lighthouse and the area of the Worlds Biggest waves … that is the Spot!

9. Another awesome Sam Holmes sailing video! Thanks Sam, I needed that!!..⛵⛵⛵

10. I had sailboat all my life. But now I live in the North Carolina mountains, playing golf. You make me want to get back in the ocean!

11. Very interesting – QUESTION – Starting to really like this concept of go-small go-now. How do you feel about a Cape Dory 28 vs getting the 36? Would you consider it a significant improvement to go for the 36 or, does it become irrelevant once you get into sailing for a while?? (same kind of comparison between an Alberg 30 and 37 – both such great boats but not clear which way to go).

12. Every time I see your vids I regretting working at the office in a building😢

13. Danger equals excitement, and Sam is smart enough to realize that fact.

14. Nice to see you flying again!

15. So cool

16. Sam…. What do the numbers on the sails represent?

17. Another fine holmes production 😂

18. Be careful of the whales at Gibraltar!

19. My favorite part about your sailing videos is you actually sail a great deal of the time. I often see sailing vessels motor up the second the wind dies.

    I totally understand the desire to get moving but I always enjoy your willingness to relax and enjoy the moment.

20. So Sam can curse like a sailor!

21. This was great! I thoroughly enjoyed the paragliding and the differences between yours and Andre’s . His was like a race car compared with everyone else’s 4door sedan’s! Everyone should look great with it, although he’s like part bird …..I have a feeling you’ll have one of the lighter ones soon too, you looked like you were enjoying it.

22. Another fine holmes production. Making friends wherever he goes

23. I love your unpretentious can-do attitude – very refreshing.

24. Naz is safe as anything in the summer… winter on the other hand is big wave surfing season. Glad you enjoyed it; we loved our winter there!

25. Happy birthday, dear Sam! Love ya! Grams

26. Hey new to the channel. Have you ever sailed to wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 in the uk definitely a place I’d like to see you visit it beautiful 👍

27. Thanks!

28. Sam your cool dude Love your channel.

29. it's so strange the camera's don't register the poles in the frame…

30. Awesome

31. So awesome Sam. Thank you.

32. Thanks!

33. That was awesome

34. why are you not harnessed to the boat or rail when you are up on the deck taking pictures, especially when on the bow and reaching like you are?

35. Watching the spinnaker fold in is like cum going back in

36. @samholmessailing what battery powered fridge have you been using recently? Seems to be working pretty well for you. I’m in the market. Thanks Sam!

37. Bro, you got a 360. Very cool.

38. Just missed you in Nazare!

39. You have inspired me to try paragliding!

40. You didn’t leave your friend in the “dust”, you left your friends in the “drops”. 😅

41. Hey Sam ,, what are you using to get those " away" look shots up off the bow ?
    It looks like your holding some type of tether ,, but I cant see what it us your using ,,,, thanks.

42. When trimming a symmetrical spinnaker I like to trim the pole so that it is perpendicular to the Windex. This allows optimal flow to the sail and then you can ease and trim the sheet for performance. Something to try out if you are looking for different ways to trim the sail!

43. Seems like you'd miss your own boat stepping off learning that trick

    Later with dolphins 🐬 as well

    Waveguide like radar perhaps with trough

    And then coming in at night to a new harbor.

    Cliff hanger wanted another round touch and gos

    Looked like fun

    Local knowledge as well thermals where to get the lift…

44. I feel uneasy to point anything to a great sailor with so much experience but I have to: 4:30 Beware Sam do not let the pole rest on the forestay as the lateral force is translated in a much stronger longitudinal pull on the stray that could break it (or the pole).
    Might not be critical in your case but why tempt fate when so much sh%t can go wrong already.
    I know you knew, ,just absentmindedness I guess.
    Great video again and thank you for sharing your journey with us .
    PS:Dolphin#1 "human jumping in the water"
    Dolphin#2 "smells like asparagus, lets split"

45. That was pretty cool!

46. Learnt to fly at around the same time place as Andre…. Great guy… as ifhe's in your video 😂… much love

47. Man, you should have stopped in Aveiro instead of Figueira! There is a beautiful lagoon and much more to see!

48. Naz has the biggest waves. Killers.
