PREA MULTA VALA? Depășind limitele Outremer 55

1. Possibly one of the best catamaran videos ever. The format and sound was incredible.

2. Amazing drone shots of this beauty at speed! I had a big sigh of relief when you said you'd be taking some crew on board for your trip. I know these yachts are about as good as it gets but they can be a handful in challenging conditions as all high-performance cruisers are. It's not only prudent but absolutely necessary given the little time you had to become acquainted with her. I also think you will learn far more with experienced crew to help you than without even if the voyage ends up being largely uneventful. There's always more to learn when it comes to sailing. Glad you are feeling better and all the best for the New Year to both of you!!

3. Happy New Year!

4. ? " I cannot Believe how that Vessel is So Beautiful" out on the sea in Full winds. You did Great!!! I now understand why Clarity has to go to another owner ~ Sorry Megan was ill.. Get well soon 🙏👳‍♂️

5. As a mono hull sailor this will be interesting and fun to watch fair winds

6. I know zero about sailing but somehow I never miss an O'Kelly episode! Felt sorry for the poor passengers on board. This episode reminds me a bit of when my mate bought a Lancair propjet and wanted me to come along for a ride to see how she went in the arduous conditions of the day….25 knots of straight crosswind and sigmets for turbulence all over the place. Gotta be kidding, let me know when its 5 knots gusting to 6, cavok with the isobars a foot across and I'm in. Till then, I'm staying in bed 🤣Also,good to see Megan is over the covid. Can be nasty sometimes.

7. The drone footage really shows what it’s like to sail on a catamaran-showing the size of the waves on the boat never captures what they’re really doing. We are cautious sailors and try to never let our sails get overpowered, but sometimes we’ll have full sails up in 20kts apparent, which is the limit before reefing in our Lagoon 380. Gusts up to 25 had me super anxious 😬 but we and the Reboot were fine because we were on a close reach in smooth seas. Our skill level isn’t anywhere near yours yet, and I am loving these videos because in a way you are doing beginner things as well because the Outremer is such a racehorse! Megan, feel better 🫶🏻 having the spicy crud (as we call it here) really sucks 😭.

8. Nick: "Show us the ropes" was one of the few times that that expression was used in the 21st century (by you, in this case)
   WHERE IT WAS ACTUALLY USED IN THE EXACT SENSE FROM WHICH THE SAYING FIRST ORIGINATED!
   It was a pleasure to see that little bit of etymological history in action!

9. Since you are in French hands you should leave the provisioning to them lol. Happy New Year!

10. Enjoyed all of the traveling videos, but it’s nice to see you all getting back on the water. Looking forward to you bringing us along for the adventures to come. I really enjoy your honesty and humility that comes through in all of your videos.

11. I think you have the right ˝machine˝ to cross the Atlantic with your knowledge, it will be a walk in the park, we are looking forward to the footage from that trip

12. Genuinely awesome ❤

13. Really excited for you! You are going to learn so much on your trip. Having supper knowledgeable crew is going to make the trip so enjoyable. We'll try to make it to the show to see the boat 🙂 Safe travels!

14. Wow, this video looks like it's going to be an exciting one! Pushing the limits of the Outremer 55 sounds like a thrilling adventure. Happy sailing and safe travels!

15. What fun. I like that you’re finding the your limits. It’s the right thing to do. Sorry Megan got caught. 😢

16. Oh Nick, the joy in your exclamations as you were sailing was all that was needed to communicate how you felt about the sailing experience! What a wonderful Christmas present. Happy New Year and Bon voyage❣️

17. So excited for you two!! Can’t wait to watch this awesome opportunity

18. I would love to crew

19. Wow, you've moved up one level to semi-professional. Real stuff and a great boat. Thanks for letting us arm-chair sailors come along.

20. I love your conservative attitude with sailing safety.

21. Wow!!! Really well done. Rare lack of hubris, thoughtful, patient dialog, warmth and open-ness enable a shared excitement in both the educational and physical preparations. Can't wait to see more. The "interaction" between the staysail and the genoa sheet caused me real headaches- sailing single-handed, raising the staysail at the mast (instead of the cockpit- bad planning in my installation), 135's sheet prevents full hoist, gotta ease the sheet (cockpit), staysail flogging in 30+ TWS, yeah… I put the staysail on a Schaefer System 1100 (me: much smaller boat; you, of course, would choose a larger version- pick as large as possible to load as large a diameter furling line as possible (so nice in the hands) to a self-tailing winch) and wished I'd done it 4 years earlier. Delightful is an understatement. Now, if only I could truly safely and quickly reef the main significantly off wind in "real" conditions… Still trying different designs… Best wishes and, again, can't wait to see more!!! -Paul

22. Sorry to hear you caught the Covid Megan, it takes so dang long to get your energy back after that, but glad you are doing better. I couldn't imagine a better training day than a day out with stiff winds and two pros. Crossing Mobile bay we had a 38 gust surprised us on our aft beam during a boat delivery with every inch of sail out. The mono hull didn't react nearly as well as your cat did, LOL and that's putting it mildly.

23. Can’t wait to see your Atlantic crossing. Happy New Year from Vancouver.

24. You guys are cooking!!! Love that drone launch and retrieval. Robin should do instructional videos! Mike and his great accent added major coolness factor! Hope Mike and Robin crew to Miami!

25. WOO HOO! That looks like way too much fun. Sailing with pro racers is a WHOLE different experience than cruising. Esp guys that are super familiar with the boat and know how far to push it. What a rush. I am super jealous.

26. So excited for you.

27. Great to see you push the boat with crew experienced with this boat!! Highlights what I like about your channel, and really has forced me to add the Outremer 55 to my list of top desired boats.

28. You ask one of the big questions – how to properly reef this huge square top mains? Turn from a beam reach into the wind, getting hit by a wave might turn into a major desaster. The decision to take Outremer guys with you is absolutely the right way.

29. Fantastic seeing you like this. It's amazing how much I learnt how to DO things by watching your vlogs and how NOT to do things by watching some other channels. Thanks guys. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🙏

30. When I first saw that test result stick I thought it was a pregnancy test😂😂😂

31. I really loved this, the sailing detail was wonderful. Godspeed.

32. A lot of boat to sail shorthanded, it seems. I hope you get onboard a good crew. Fair winds!

33. Okay!! Glad to hear you are bringing crew. No question this is the right decision.
