Probably the biggest thing that has held me back in my life is the fear of making a mistake. What I've learned – If it won't kill you you'll be alright. There's another boat guy on the Internet. Captain Joe over at Fish Bump TV that calls it "analysis paralysis". In other words you think something to death and never actually accomplish anything, much like waiting for the perfect boat, perfect weather, etc. that you talked about in the first part of this video. What you talked about in this video applies to many things in life not just being the Captain. Keep the good stuff coming James.

Thanks. Maybe the best general sailing video I've ever seen.

fear, fear fear just gotta do it get it done. I have an an acquaintance who has the same boat I do and he's never put it in the water in three years. I don't know what his problem is, but I keep offering to help him. He's painted it. He's fixed it. It sits there on the hard my boat in the water and I sail it regularly He has stopped communicating with me because I think he is ashamed.

Gee wizz James You really make sense. thanks

Sailing isn't too difficult. The thing (here in Europe) is that in every different country there are different rules and regulations to obay. I can only give as an exaple in the Netherlands there are 5 (or 6) different (water)area's were rules are variant. And that is only in a country which has the size of an postal stamp. What I'am saying there are so many people within bureaucracy and authorities who live under the impression that they are doing a good job and have kicked all the fun out of sailing with their rures and regulations. You need a shoppinglist of "degrees" to follow these. Also for communicating with VHF ... Registration (and payment) and need a diploma. Not all is bad of corse, but it dampens the enthusiasm

My wife and I are about to sail around Hatteras in the next couple of weeks, we have a lot of miles under our belts but the thought of doing this is petrifying. Thank you for such a great video. Keep Calm and Carry On.

When the USCG talks to me they call me Captain. I never took any formal training. As far as the electronic stuff, I have none of it. I still use paper charts for crying out loud. Simple is good. Less stuff that can fail and break down

I think of it like this…the engine dies in heavy seas. We have no gasket material and a 10 minute lee shore.
Convince me I should go.

Great points. To add – skip breathing is calming and also reduces oxygen demand, helping to extend SCBA duration. Also works for SCUBA. Sleep is definitely critical, right alongside water hydration.
