Love the island packet, I saw one in Annapolis last fall and the build quality was almost unmatched at the show. Only thing that came close was Tartan and Catalina IMO.

3 miles offshore to pump dookie. I had a manual gusher bilge pump instead of a macerator on my Dana 24. If I had to do it all over again, I'd install one instead of having an electric macerator. One less thing to fail.

What happens if you drop anchor super deep and it gets hooked under a boulder… and you can’t get it out? Do you cut it?
@RameyFamily25 күн бұрын
You can go down and get it. But if it’s super stuck I suppose it gets cut lose. Buy a new one 🤷♀️ It’s never happened to me we tend to only wanna anchor in mud

Hey, brother, I'm climbing aboard for this trip! Fellow vet here (23yrs USN), and I've watched your first 5 videos. I'm hooked, and looking forward to continuing on this journey and living vicariously through your posts. There's a chance we've crossed paths, as I was in San Diego (Balboa, USS THORN, MCRD, USS NIMMITZ and Pendleton) from 1999-2010. I did all my sailing training in San Diego, years ago, and then my career and a new life in Boston got in the way. Now that I'm closer to the OTHER end of my career, I've been eyeing some sailboats on the market and preparing for MY next chapter. Hopefully, we'll cross paths in the future. Until then, I'll be there on deck with you through this screen, smiling the whole time! Cheers!

I think it's very cool that you are open about the structure of your family. 👍 I had similar years ago and the dynamic is not what most people assume it is. At least you'll have no shortage of crew when you sail. Island Packet is one of my favorite brands, the quality is top notch, but the price..... 🙄
