1. Glad to hear from you guys . Happy Holidays ❤.

2. Thanks for the perspective. Glad you both got the opportunity to live your dreams!

   Merry Christmas!!

3. It looked like I was the first to give you a thumbs up. Usually I'm somewhere about the ten thousandth.

4. as always a real sailing channel, cheers

5. Cruised Europe and Caribbean, Bahamas all through the ‘80’s and early ‘90’s…..now on my cat in the Bahamas. WOW, has it changed…not just the regulations but the experience of the “sailors”, particularly on large catamarans…..lots of disposable money out there for the “We did the RV thing, now we are doing the boating thing.” Sailors. Never heard of the Hiscocks, Sterling Haydon, or any of the old school cruisers, and don’t care. Sad…but times change. Say….how about a galley/ cooking episode again?, thanks, Andrew

6. So much has changed in so many ways, on land or at sea, over the last 30 years! It is wonderful to see you two happily on the water! Wishing you both a Blessed and Merry Christmas and a New Year of adventure!
   ❤️🙏✝️🕊️😘

7. Jules, you have a pleasing manner and voice. You remind me of my favorite uncle, now passed.
   You might mention to people about your early videos where you spoke about the early days. Working on shore when you could. You doing electrical work and susan waitressing.

8. I spent about 25 years Living aboard and cruising the Caribbean, I am retired in Dominican Republic for many years already, I Like all Your Videos, and this one also reminds Me of the Good Old Days. Thank You,⛵

9. 96th subscriber/neighbor LIKE; 257th view about to set sail… cheers from your island fan.

10. Make some pork, dumplings and sauerkraut!
    JIM ❤

11. "Sting Ray Point"… but you know that. Thought you might mention getting prepared for some stormy weather that's been forecast to hit us here soon.
    Be careful out there. God bless you and Merry Christmas.

12. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year I hope you guys are having a good one

13. best channel on you tube merry xmass guys xx

14. Merry Christmas! Thanks for the now and then review.

15. Wonderful video…. good times, at the time we were all considered ladies and gentlemen…some with money others not so much. Money was a triviality, rather it was how you behaved. Up until fairly recently the Harbor patrol was generally not part of the "professional" police departments and in my view were better people. Certainty far more skilled and as I recall actually actively involved and helpful. I hope we can work toward implementing things that have proven to work.

16. Another great episode guys!! 👍

17. ❤Thank you for this video! While many of us have read, and dream about replicating, the classic cruising books, the realities of today make that nearly impossible. Some advice from folks, who not only did it, but are still doing it is really helpful!
    Take good care!

18. 😃👍👏👏👏

19. Thank you so much for documenting this history of when Americans were free. I feel sad for younger generations. They will never experience what it’s like to live with freedom. They will never have the opportunity to try and do so many of the things we not only enjoyed but took for granted. They live as tax cattle, expected to consume and produce as much as possible. Having to pay more and more for land and waterways they can use less and less. Every year there’s more “public “land that we pay for that’s off limits to the public. What’s scary to me is every previous generation has complained about the loss of freedom for the next. Being a constant downward trend, where does this end? Although I think America is still a great country. I think we’re becoming more and more like the places where people like yourself escaped from. This downward trend being global, I fear there’ll be nowhere left to escape to. I’m sorry about leaving such a negative comment. Especially since all of your videos are so uplifting. I just can’t bury my head in the sand any longer. One of the best things about sailing is being on the open ocean. Away from all of the politics and bureaucratic nonsense,controversies,scandals and red tape. But eventually we all have to return to port. I just hope my home port will be a safe harbor in the future.

20. Thanks for sharing. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.😊

21. Thanks for sharing your video Jules and Susie and a very Merry Christmas and all the very best in the NEW YEAR to you and your loved ones..stay safe.

22. Santa cruz island. I know there nothing there but good place to be/feel free
    Just windy, preaching to the choir i'm sure
    Eric – Santa Barbara

23. Interesting topic.

24. Thanks Merry Christmas Happy New Year

25. Thanks for sharing

26. When I moved aboard and started cruising 35 years ago I knew I was too late to be first at anything. But over time it has become clear I have seen many lasts. Now moorings and permits would exceed my entire budgets of the past. The only 2 solutions I've found are to sail less traveled places or seasons.

27. Great video

28. Thank you for a great 2023 and wishing you Happy Hollidays. See you in 24

29. Ha still dragging in NZ , Mainly the gin boats Merry Xmas

30. Thankfully, BC is much less restricted, so far, with the exception of Vancouver Harbour. Even there I think you can get 14 day permits. Merry Christmas!

31. I think the problem is with numbers. There are just too many people doing it these days. One or two cruising yachts anchred in a bay? Not much of a problem. Three dozen? Now that becomes a problem.

    I once thought of doing this once I retired. Now, Raynoud's syndrome has made me leary of gettin the least bit chilled. I lose the feeling in my fingers first.

32. i liked it just fine

33. Oh yes I did love the bay of islands

34. Good to hear your story. Things sure have changed. Lots of people figure that a boat is a good escape plan if things get too bad in the world but it seems boats are becoming more regulated every day. What some people went through in 2020 on boats was pretty bad. Around Vancouver Island is still not too bad if you stay away from the big cities.

35. Merry Christmas Emerald Steel have safe & healthy New Year and thank you for sharing your most interesting life on the ocean .

36. 👍👍👍

37. I wonder if lower maintenance glass boats and shorter stays in travelled areas would help. Absolutely amazing what a life you have lived. I just received your video after a long pause.

38. I remember back when we used to laugh at the bureaucracy of the Europeans where, 'if it wasn't stamped 10 times, it just wasn't stamped'. Now we are they. Fortunately, I did most of my long distant cruising in the 70's & 80's.

39. Great videos!
