1. If only you knew what ''jib'' means around here!!!!!…..You wouldn't use that wor anymore!!

2. Just found your channel this morning and subbed, howdy from Salt Lake City!
   I saw your Key West shirt in the opening, I took my family there for vacation back in April 2024 and almost friggin died down there, my appendix decided to rupture and it was not fun.
   Headed back one day but first up is Hawaii in a couple of weeks.
   Thanks for uploading this video, this looks like a great trip and I thought you did great on the reverse off of the dock, looked like an old pro!

3. Great video to eat lunch too

4. hey damon how do you land your drone?

5. what were making at 18:10 speed wise??

6. Thanks for the taking us along on your trip to the island. Keep going!

7. Man that solar arch looks fantastic. Well done.

8. Damon, don't you dare ever stopping yapping, you have a very calming voice, very easy on the ear. S/V Rambler is looking very business-like after all the improvements you have done. I know how much work goes into capturing and editing footage to producing each thoroughly enjoyable episode. Cheers Damon. ❤👍⚓ from England, United Kingdom.

9. Your vid are not ''realistic at all''….Seems like just a jumble up mix of clips!!!,,,,,jeez wizz dude,….have a timeline and do some time-lapse!!

10. I saw a recent video of a guy and his friends going from Miami to Bimini via powerboat. An overnight trip cost him $500. I got to believe you trip won't be nearly as costly.

11. !

12. Are you still going to be around Marathon March 7th-14th? Lunch or Dinner @ Butterfly Cafe or TJs Tiki Bar

13. Damon, What has worked for me getting off the dock is to tie off the stern to the dock with just a loop. Move your prop toward the wall and the prop wash will move between the dock and the hull and push the bow slowly off the dock. As soon as you are free of the dock pull the line and head out. Rob

14. It would be fun to see a map of your travels as you go from point to point.

15. Great progress. How large/watts are the new panels and are they working well? Cheers.

16. 🐬 🐢 🌊⛵️🚢 🇺🇸 thank you!

17. bro never stop yapping we love hearing you and everything you say its the day to day things you do and yap about that makes you and all you do interesting so yeah never stop amazing video

18. Hi young man from New Zealand. Great watching all you videos. One very small thing is how hard would it be to create some maps. Locations, directions and where are you going. Great ocean where you are. I am in Papamoa in the Southern Pacific water still warm but winters coming. Take care and always tether or wear a life jacket. Don’t want to lose you

19. Love the video and great view of the US ship en-route to its permanent home! Love the video of the turtle! 🎉 Safe journey! 👍🏻🙏🏼👏

20. That mooring shackle is a crown jewel. Show it off now n then. Pick up a relay ? Any chance you're using that autopilot as a control head and creating a below deck autopilot drive ? Pneumatic ? My offer still stands for 12 volt pneumatic valves. You could make plastic cylinder ends with your printer or carve them, and cylinders could be plastic pipe. Springs to your steer cables. A simple air pump or vacuum. That autopilot way overcorrects and beats up itself and your battery. Pilots call that kind of steering " stirring butter. You filmed one of the crimes of the century. The powers that be want the SS United States sunk in deep water so it will be very expensive to raise her and scrap her. Read the end of Herman Wouk's "The Caine Mutiny. Give a thought to a 3 HP DC electric diesel generator. Some of the parts are very slow to build. The motor weighs 44 LBS, so the whole thing weighs maybe 60 LBS, and runs 6 hours on a tank of diesel, with a brisk load. No fires with diesel and you can cross oceans without ever starting your main motor. Everybody likes your scenes and they belong on 35 MM Kodak Vision filmstock. I like your soundtrack and your theme music. Your friends band ?

21. Keep doing exactly what you do! Love ya bro!

22. That's a neat little island.

23. I love watching your videos ,going thru this cancer thing again,makes me feel good seeing you sail ,I never been on the water like that,Be Safe

24. Stay safe

25. We have pictures of the Exon Valdez you might remember the pilot crashed into a reef in Alaska ruining fisheries for years!!

26. We admire your positivity on life! Thanks for inspiring us. We're still in the middle of refitting our 65' catamaran, but we always dreamed of water adventure soon!

27. I love your videos and watch them with my 4 year old. We pray for you and hope that you start to share the gospel on the videos.

29. Loved the shot of the dolphin, and the underwater shot of the sea turtle was awesome! Good job. 👍❤️

30. Amateurs take endless selfies so the audience has to look up their noses… and super jerky camera handling. Ho hum uboob fail.

31. Great video!!! It was pretty cool to hear you say vegas showgirl on this week's video. You can imagine my smile I'm sure!!! We took some pretty cool video of you sailing off the mooring ball in the morning at Indian key!!!! That was us you said good morning to!!!!! Safe travels!!!

32. Damon looks like the adventure is beginning, thanks for sharing can’t wait to watch the crossing ⚓️⛵️-Jim
