At 2:18 : "Sometimes, Pan-Pans are used to announce approaching storms, ..." Do you not mean "Securite" in such instances?

2025? How did you post this video 10 years in advance?

That nice liveaboard for $15k is a great deal

I worked for a guy was given a free boat. 48 ft steel in about 35 ft of water. 😖 Sunk in the blizzard of 78. Sat on the bottom for three yrs. Put a 220 Cummins in with a 3 to 1 gear about a 36 inch prop. I'v been on more expensive boats. But not many. 🤨

Creepy thanks now I am gonna fall asleep learned 0

STOP STOP NOT INTERESTING.

I like and use I navX, the raster charts are accurate and easy to read for me. Careful though, I find I run off the edge of the current chart and finding the next one is not quick or intuitive. For this reason a vector based software might be better. As of 2024 I navX does not support external AIS receivers on Android, only IOS.

I still have my Grampian G23 that I got for free about 5 years ago. I have been collecting things to make it an adventure boat. It was actually sail ready and came with a very nice 9.9 Evinrude. The guy called me one morning and said it was mine if I wanted it because the marina was closing and the boat and cradle it was on was in the air in the lift. I backed under it with my car hauler trailer and they set it down and I strapped it down and took it home 45 minutes. I would love to get more info on them, not many vidoes on youtube like the 26. I am listed on the grampian site with the hull. I actually lifted the boat and cradle off my car hauler trailer by myself and set it back onto a nice trailer I bought just for it. Would be happy to share photos of the boat and my adventure so far. I have dreams of trailering it to floriday from Michigan and doing the bahamas with it. Jim.

That boat you said was fire wood fixed up is a 40,000.00 dollar boat .

Thank you very much excellent explanation for me and people who do not have alot of experience.

Is that Lancaster still flying out of Hamilton? It's been a few years since I've seen it

Duh.

As a delivery skipper once said to me, "If it floats, flies or f*cks, it's cheaper to rent it."

Free is my favourite price!!

one of the best explanations around salvaged boats i have heard

Thanks! Your explanation is clear and easy to understood how to send a Distress, Urgency and Safety Message.

Number 1 just takes time. And after 50 years, still learning

Interested

What type of tubes are you using? PVC? PEM? Or is this a different more flexible kind? What diameter do you use?

Thank you so much for this informative video. I have emailed for the checklist, subscribed to the channel and will be working my way through your videos.

The way I see it, it’s your video, if you like breaking waves…go with breaking waves and ignore the comments. Thank you for your video, not many have done this. For now Navionics is my go to. I found your video because I was searching for a compare and contrast between Navionics and Aqua Maps. So far my initial take on Aqua Maps is a thumbs down. I’m a heavy user of point of interest data and I’m often searching for marina’s and detailed information on them, I don’t see or find that in Aqua Maps and they seem to nickel and dime even more than Navionics. I wanted to give AQ a try specifically because a friend told me it has a good anchor alarm, something that is conspicuously missing from most apps, which KILLS ME!! Unfortunately that added function is overshadowed by everything else I don’t like about the app. An anchor alarm should be a straight forward function for any of these apps and I just don’t know why they don’t include it…liability maybe? Who knows. Currently I use Anchor Watch paired with Pushover. It works pretty well and Pushover allows me to leave a device on the boat w/ Anchor Watch running and get alarm notification on another device (phone). The developer tried to build that into the app, but it didn’t work so when I contacted him he told me about Pushover. I’ve tested the functionality on land and it works well. All that said, the navigation apps should still include this function. That’s my two cents. Again, thanks for putting this out there and ignore the people who don’t like waves.

very helpefull :)

Thanks!

Just put a deposit on one with a good 10horse Honda never sailed before raised with boats though any advice Thessalon ont might stay on it all year if I find a good place who knows new experience for me an puppy thanks for any advice...🇨🇦😁🇱🇷🐕📸🎶⛵

stupid pointless video no responses either

I was looking to have had space this year. Thank you.

Retardedly obvious

I am in Canada but retiring in Grenada Caribbean, I have the land for storage , i'll take pride in getting something to spend a year in Grenada fixing it up. how how do i go about getting a boat

Hi it's like buying a old car if you can fix it yourself you just pay for the parts and save on the labor. Good video greetings from Panamá.

Horribly distracting background waves are really annoying and pointless. Please don't use that again. I had to turn the screen away and just listen to the audio. I am sure there are others that don't cope well with that type of distraction. Otherwise it is quite informative.

I've never seen Nonsuch 45...has one ever been built?

Anyone still looking for a g26 ??? .y step dad past away I have one possibility for sale

Great video Alan! Would love to hear what you think about a few others… Argo, TZ iBoat, Aqua Maps, Wavve…

This is not on topic but I respect your opinion. If an encapsulated lead keel has let go of it’s fiberglass covering can I drill holes in the bottom of the keel to remove any water. Dry it over several months. Then pour in from the bilge side after opening it, that penetrating epoxy to fill any small voids and to rebound the keel to the lead ballast?

For the love of GOD, get to the point.

Which one is your favorite?

I subscribed! and I’m about to install a jabsco in my (new to me) 1984 Catalina 30! Thanks for this vid

Thank you for sharing the information

I was advised by several sailmakers to use oxalic acid. I cleaned my main from 41ft which was filthy, a big job. Applied acid to wet sail with micro fibre mop all over. Made to instructions on container 100g to 1lt. I kept going over the sail with the mop making sure it stayed wet with the acid for around 15 mins. The stains just come off. Hose off throughly and repeated. Dried in the sun now looking like brand new ⛵️ Oxalic acid is quite mild at these concentrations and used in face peels, beauty products etc. My feet also look brand new and according to several websites I’ve read is a naturally occurring acid in the ground and won’t harm grass or gardens if used correctly.
