A Years Worth of Mail // Full-time Boat life in the Caribbean

[@lancedaniels]

Thanks Karin and Andy.

[@dahveed284]

At 2:48, the bridge is open and so is the cross bar to stop car traffic.

[@johnnylightning1491]

Hi Karen and Andy. Thanks for helping Billy and Sierra out! Billie and Sierra, keep the good stuff coming. BTW after watching all 369 or so of your videos over the last month they are getting much better, especially the audio levels. Thanks for sharing your lives!

[@plainswanderer3043]

At the start of your video, the black bird with the yellow eyes is a Carib Grackle, these are found through out the Lesser Antilles.

[@MrGTO-ze7vb]

Tropical container is a great company to deal with in Riviera Beach FL..!

[@txhypnotist]

Cool unboxing video. Thanks for sharing. Makes me feel as if I got to open a bunch of gifts without having to find a place to store them. Happy boating to you three.

[@roybrinkley899]

So, what were the stakes involved with the great engine rebuild bet?

[@8ulldogmama]

Yay! It made it! Thank you for sharing Orion’s Christmas card with all your fans! Thanks for the shout out!

[@seanmorris]

Look into 'bee wax wraps', basically cloths impregnated with bees wax that you can use to wrap food with. They are easy clean and biodegradable (or re makeable if you make them yourselves). They are an alternative to cling film/Saran wrap.

[@davehill7484]

Great video, it was like Christmas all over again 😜😜😎😎👍⛵️, looking forward to the rebuild!!👌

[@bubbagail7450]

Billy was like a kid in a candy store opening all those packages. Hello to Karen and Andy thanks for what you do for these two and Jetty.

[@bradmottishaw467]

Cant wait for the engine rebuild!

[@warren935]

Cool. Christmas in June.

[@SuperDave-vj9en]

Wrap your GoPro stick plastic bolt with lots and lots of Teflon tape! It’ll work, just try it.

[@rangerbull]

Was wondering if buying a rebuilt short block is any cheaper than rebuilding it yourself since you are going with new pistons and I’m assuming a new crank

[@andrewmcdonald476]

Hi guys, all of those packages; a big logistic challenge! How do you select an address that will accept and hold your mail at a future destination? Thanks, Andrew

[@josephlashley9459]

That’s cool using the dinghy as the second engine.

[@anthonymiller4550]

Tony & Susan here, Hi Karen you are the best and we have known Billy to never lie so there :D

[@ryanohnstad]

Great video as always, loved watching how excited you were getting all the packages, reminds me of myself on Christmas! I seen the comments on Adrenaline for sale and had to find it for myself and it is true, I hope you get as close to full price as possible, ya'll have put so much work into her, she'll be a great boat for someone... Please update us ASAP on what is next, hopefully a nice brand new catamaran for a sweet deal for advertising for them, you both deserve that. Good luck!

[@sailingluana3037]

Just found your channel. You're living what I am working for.

[@jimmyvega6720]

You guys are the best

[@srqlisa7881]

Karin and Andy you rock. : ) peace

[@dontuckwood7921]

Hello you two. I wanted to apologize to Sierra for yelling out Savannah just inside the palm beach inlet on Sunday. It was great seeing you guys on the water.

[@grantpeachey6908]

awsome belated Merry Christmas good to see you are yanking it out to be re done

[@IslandSpirit35]

We go online to usp.gov then process a forward to a friend's home..this is good for 6 mo. Then you redo it. Now, all jink mail is left behind and only your first class good mail forwards. This is best way to deal with mail.

[@Steve-ec6ed]

I use a RAM mount on my motorcycle handlebars and not a huge fan. I've had cheaper mounts that felt a lot more secure and that didnt almost let my phone go when I hit a pothole at 60mph. Not sure if they're any better for boating but I'd hope so.

[@jasonlockhart4647]

What can I say another awesome video love to see all the stuff you guys got also please we want to see a lot of video of the rebuild even Pointless Stuff the longer the video the better

[@carolinabeacher1558]

i love the way the ads are now played at the beginning, is that something you get to choose or did youtube do that, those middle of the video ads were annoying.

[@danieljones8101]

I enjoyed watching you videos I like it

[@colinboniface194]

You'll have to get a much bigger boat to carry all that stuff... I reccon, to strip the head (diesel motor), strip the block, clean, check, note order of disassembly, repaint, refit, valve grind and reassemble the head, torque up and time the injector pump, prime and start, to a running well standard, three weeks...

[@rangerbull]

This is the guy that was worried about weight lol 😂

[@davidgriffin14]

It's apparently on Craigslist.

[@Keepingittocool]

It doesn’t matter how long it takes you it matters how good of a job you do. Hopefully you do not go cheaply to the point that it will affect your rebuild go ahead spend the money get your block and heads cleaned and recondition and checked

[@deanmacka4975]

Hi to the mail man people yeah i forgot there name's lol great stuff

[@riverakers]

Cornucopia of delights.

[@robfraley4210]

Hahaha 😂. All those boxes 4:30 🕟 one would think you’re rebuilding a Kenworth truck engine😱 But we’ll all have gotten them Amazon boxes 📦 17 1/2 X bigger than what was In them 😎👍✅ And WOW, That is literally More STUFF than I have gotten in my last 25 Christmas’s AND Birthdays Combined...!! 🤭

[@michaelbrannan4864]

I can't wait for the next video hi jetty 😎

[@karldavis9966]

GREAT video!!! Thanks for sharing an looking forward to your engine rebuild!!!! It is AWESOME all the folks that send y’all things to help in your travels!!!!! Thanks love y’all an stay safe!!

[@TheMorganMonroeShow]

Oh yeah.....

[@toddabrahamsson1797]

Billy you made the wager on the amount of time to rebuild the engine ? Do you know internally what is wrong with the engine ? Are you going to have the crank turned down with new bearings ? Are you going to rebuild the head ? Valve job, stem seals, deck the head , etc. Are you going to rebuild the fuel system ? Injectors, high pressure pump ? Are you going to install new pistons, wrist pins, new liners or bore out the old liners. I think you need to tell the viewers how far you are going to go with the rebuild ? If at this point in time due to the time lapse if you have completed the rebuild what exactly did you do to the internals of the engine. What machine work was done ? Let your viewers know.

[@111-w9d7y]

You look cool dudes in your new sunglasses. Very nice.

[@fredbloggs4023]

Guys, a nurdy question from a fellow boater, what size is the RIB??

[@Tulasendlesssummer]

11’9” it is a Highfield CL360

[@jasonmckenzie7592]

Hey guys love your videos on KZbin. I see your catamaran is up for sale on Facebook. What boat are you going to get next?

[@Grinder1965]

that backpack for the drone doesn't yell STEAL ME!! at all.

[@johngerlang1547]

Good morning. Are you still still life guarding at fire island? Love the videos stay safe.

[@cliveashley9364]

Enjoying your video fr Jamaica island

[@bmwchefbmw]

please share the link for the lures you like... :-)

[@frankrice5364]

Where are you guys going to put all them goodies

[@bertsteen2014]

25 Summer. Thanks 😊

[@lordhydromage6614]

I love Summer Santa

[@LJL98]

Don’t put the faraday bag in the oven! Lol the doesn’t protect electronics. Think about it. It’s metal. Any conductor on the boat is going to light up like a Christmas tree if you get hit with lightning. Keep the faraday bag as far away from conductors as possible.

[@tomdrummy4984]

10 days !

[@captainsensible298]

3 weeks

[@keithcopeland8245]

At least lol

[@matthewhenderson756]

I went and bought two pairs of keens. Had no idea of that company.

[@George39280]

What is the brand of the auto pilot? I would like to get one for my boat. That one looks like it would be a good fit for my boat. Could you also tell me how much they cost, if it is easy to install and use..

[@retiredfederalie178]

George Brattole looked like a Raymarine

[@HolyGrailSailing]

How in the world did you get away with opening all of those boxes when Sierra wasn't there?

[@aaronrepairsall]

Jetty had that look like "Dad you have a shopping problem!"

[@MZderf]

Hi Karen and Andy!

[@donevans3373]

I do not see how you did not loose any of your packages lol.

[@christopherjennifersmith3554]

Good lookin out Karen an Andy

[@garyfreeman8523]

Hi Karen and Andy. Ummm Billy, with all the packages, what about weight on the boat??? LOL

[@sharonlabrecque6084]

Can’t believe you are selling Adrenaline. Are you buying another vessel or quitting the sailing life?

[@cup_and_cone]

Noticed the water maker and several other key items are listed with the boat, so if they're getting another boat, it's likely going to be mostly turnkey.

[@snapstring3134]

Hi Karen and Andy. 👍

[@Bantie1]

I could use those cardboard boxes for patterns to make things for my boat,,,

[@beeamerica5024]

Man that was a lot of stuff that's cool but only getting to do it once a year is not need to do it more often LOL⛵🐝

[@MrHAPPYHAWAIIAN]

I just had a couple of bouts of swimmer’s ear. What medical problems have you had while sailing? What medical supplies do you sail with?👍

[@unclebob6728]

Raise the Waterline!

[@chadjackson8420]

Hey Karen and Andy... thanks for spoiling Billy and Sierra! ;-)

[@dabprod]

The good life.

[@richardstephan9342]

One Love🤙

[@tomwilliams8675]

How mad was Sierra after she found out you opened all the Christmas presents?

[@williamswezey6715]

hi karen and andy!!!

[@jameswilson1573]

Hi Billy, is that an engine i spy on a wooden rack!

Make sure you find a good machine shop.

[@georgehockaday7584]

He said he had to stop and make water. Different meaning here in the South. Dee and Deb

[@grantrichardson5164]

I remember getting the long awaited care package from home when I lived and worked in the USVI in the late 80's. Jif and Twinkies. So obviously this video Sierra is in Florida and the Pandemic craziness hasn't hit you yet. It's good to see you excited about getting all that stuff. As much as we all hated the lockdown and now the mandatory masks and distance separation stuff. America is strong. I'm waiting for my adrenaline junky shirt to arrive and add to my collection. Looking forward to the next installment on your adventure. Thanks to both of you for all the great work.

[@earlsnapp5209]

You two are such an amazing, exciting and fun couple. I really enjoy all the content, including XMAS in June. Cheers from Portland, Or

[@tophercoy8471]

Where's the video showing how much stuff you had to throw out to make room for all the stuff you got in?

[@jonkzak]

Like Christmas in June! I'm going to get some more eggnog, and turn over the Bing Crosby Christmas record. Be safe and Stay well.

[@frankd2301]

Hi Karen and Andy

[@lordhydromage6614]

I dont know why i feel so sad that adrenaline is for sale but I am. :-( I guess its the boat that I would think of from Shawshank Redemption ...find and old boat and fix it up new and ...... sigh. ..i hope an explanation video is coming soon...not that they owe us one but ...we do care about them and the boat and jetty.

[@geneberry7114]

Man, talk about a Billy facetime, I demand equal time for Sierra next video!!!!

[@davidgriffin14]

She wasn't on the boat. What's that all about? And why is their boat on Craigslist?

[@nielsdebakker3283]

From a previous video with no Billy in it: Sierra visited her parents in FL and got stuck there due to the pandemic lockdown on Sint Maarten. I guess next video still no Sierra.

[@fredbrillo1849]

Remember... every 20 minute job is only one broken bolt away from being a 3 day ordeal!

[@kongkjetil]

check you faraday-cage. Put a cellphone in and check if you loose connection. Can also "boost" with aluminum foil. Or, make a Tin foil hat :)

[@111-w9d7y]

Enjoy using all your new goodies from your many boxes. Love from Switzerland.

[@wolfman1549]

Good morning

[@patslovokia3834]

Tell me I didn't see Adrenaline on Craigslist today..

[@birddogz545]

It's definitely on Craigslist, I saw Jetty in the pictures

[@webheadusa9377]

Well, that is what is known in the business as a cliffhanger, eh? :¬) Webhead USA

[@johnguz76]

Webhead USA they probably don’t want to get in the same situation as Zingaro.Same boat...

[@lordhydromage6614]

I guess they found their next boat..too bad since adrenaline is such a nice unique boat...and all the work they just did too...it includes the rainman...so the next boat must be a seriously nice boat to walk away from all of that.

[@alphasxsignal]

Jetty Treat.

[@billflying2977]

Can't wait for the engine rebuild. I have a couple pair of Hobie since watching your channel. They get more compliments then Oakleys I used to wear. Great product!!

[@davidgriffin14]

Where was Sierra?

[@cup_and_cone]

I think this was when she flew back to FL, and then ended up stuck in the USA when the borders closed for Covid-19

[@ourladynd3580]

Just ordered the wife, Hobie Rips with Colbalt Blue, Thanks for the discount, and heads up on the glasses-great price. Mauw to the 🐶.....God Speed to y'all 🙏.

[@jacksbackable]

Hobie sunglasses...........😖🕶They Do Not respond to Emails🙁😟😤

[@beckers1330]

Billy, as you get older, you are looking like Chad from Nickleback

[@truenaturestormers2525]

Sweet it was like being there with you....Amazing we love you kids...009

[@dawnhornsby7215]

That was like Christmas 😎 fun😍

[@captraykelly]

Nice video. Man you get a lot of mail. Safe travels.

[@Tulasendlesssummer]

HAha because we haven’t gotten any other mail in the past year 😜 hope you’re doing Great Ray!!

[@captraykelly]

Tula's Endless Summer We are doing well. We go back to FL in Nov.

[@bayardtaylor2990]

Were the sunglasses. Free also ?

[@melvinthemechanic]

You get fried if the boat gets hit by lightening

[@terencesmith4137]

Looking forward to the engine rebuild 🤩

[@frankd2301]

Keen shoes really are comfortable. Love em.

[@hugogonzalez8802]

Selling the cat? looking for another or end of a youtube channel?

[@ronaldmalcolm5609]

TIL that KEEN Footware exists. I'll have to see if they have something that fits my non-dainty, non-ballerina feet.
