Sailing to Mexico [Adventure

[@yehyeh5066]

Shame they have gone. I'm not even into sailing but loved to watch them.

[@beedonn9260]

Still miss you guys, hoping someday you guys will come back..:-)

[@pat2row]

Wish them fair winds on future new boat adventures. One trip on a sailboat ⛵️ from Newport Beach to Alameda convinced me sailing life was not for me. Honoring your dedication to a well filmed sailboat lifestyle.

[@scotsoaring5373]

That is always a rough trip sailing North. Sailing South is a much better trip to take until you get used to it.

[@battleborn9047]

Hope this find you guys well. I haven’t seen any new videos for awhile. Are you guys still sailing? Can’t wait to see some updated videos.

[@MG-qn9dm]

I really did enjoy their stuff. very interesting.

[@budawang77]

Wondering whether you guys are still sailing? Really enjoyed your videos and it almost felt like we were old friends 😃

[@svdellajean253]

While in the PNW go to an auto parts store like NAPA and get yourself an automatic battery filler. Fill it with distilled water, put the nozzle in the cell, press down, when the gurgling stops the cell is full. It’s a cheap piece of kit and works great.

[@UndocumentedHuman]

Hey guys came to check in on you and you haven’t posted in a year! I hope you are all ok!

[@beedonn9260]

Come on you guys I love you guys, don't give up on us... I understand that all the editing is a lot of work but you guys can keep it going😘🥰🤔

[@waltobringer2928]

Thanks!

[@beedonn9260]

Hey guys once again it's me, we miss you guys personally I think you guys have some of the better credentials regarding sailing, as well as being just beautiful people. Come back to us please, please please please I miss you guys incredibly like I said you guys definitely have sailing credentials that a lot of people don't who profess that they do. So once again I missed you guys I appreciate you guys I think of you guys all the time I hope you're doing well and are safe. Thanks Charles

[@SoItGoesCAL34]

Thanks for the update. I like the dawn because it means night is over :)

[@beedonn9260]

I have done that Newport Ensenada race many many times and always when you get close to the Finish Line the wind will always die usually early am and it's kind of put up your lightest Point 4oz Spinnaker and it will get some wind and take you into the rest of the rice

[@MontanaCabanalivn]

where are you guys now?

[@budawang77]

You're the no nonsense sailing channel. Or like we say in Australia, the Fair Dinkum sailing channel. You can ask Ty for a translation.

[@MG-qn9dm]

So, where are you now and what are your plans for continuing with your sailing adventures?

[@svbarryduckworth628]

I would imagine they are back in the USA working and building their cruising kitty back up. It has only been about three months since they went back to work.

[@jerryparks9838]

Where are you guys are you still sailing

[@frankrice5364]

Love the smiles ma,am

[@wvcorvetteman]

Whatever happened? Surely we were worth one final episode? You have left us hanging not knowing what happened.

[@SoItGoesCAL34]

Hi again. You said you were going to put a link in the description box for your preferred watermaker but I don't see it. We have a SeaWaterPro watermaker that we have been using for 3 years back when it was a bit more DIY and less expensive (see their $1995 model). The Karcher pressure washer works fine. Very happy with this company.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Thanks for catching that! I think we put an in-video clickable link, but forgot to put it in the description. Updated now, and here's the info- SunPure Watermakers: sunpurewatermakers.com/ Our Videos about SunPure: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqjadHWoqbGIpaM kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZSnYXWnpN-fnrM

[@tomppi70]

Glad to have you back😃

[@PeterKelley]

Last Friday evening (15 October) I was searching for any cool videos on crossing the Columbia River Bar. 5.5 days later I have binge watched the entire adventure series. I love Ty being Australian (I am guessing Queensland) because the things he says aren't weird to me even though they would be weird to people from the US. I think I even spotted a Milo can in one shot. Keep up the good content.

[@schenevus82]

Hi Hillary and Ty! We hope you are doing well. If you can find the time, could you please fill us in on how things are developing? We miss you and your videos! Besitos y abrazos!

[@jwgraham2]

Hey Guys where are you? Hope all is well. Please update us all. Thanks.

[@davidbarten7429]

Safe travels and looking forward to crossing tacks in the future!

[@williambunting803]

I do like the look of Mexico.

[@MrScrappity]

Are we lost at sea? Or possibly melting away in the PNW? Whichever it might be. Take care, all the best 😁

[@jimwright7836]

What happened?

[@frankrice5364]

Love the new boat guy's

[@puretrouble1603]

Any updates on what you have been up to?

[@HammerRocks]

Proprietary hardware gets you all the time. You just have to hope they don't break down as often. And a slight correction Hilary, the US Navy (& I'm almost certain, the other Navys in the world) no longer have any battleships in active duty. That warship was either a destroyer or a frigate.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Yep, that proprietary stuff is always a struggle! You are probably right about “battleship” being an older term - just used that word as it’s well known for a title. They all go by “warship” on the radio.

[@svpearlsailacapegeorgesail4758]

Remember that you also need liability boat insurance for Mexico when checking in. (different than hull insurance) see you in the Sea!

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Yes, this is true if you are going to visit any marina (which obviously you have to in Ensenada), forgot to mention, as we already had it included in our insurance.

[@stephenwissel7902]

It’s good have-in you back!

[@ayoubmallah]

Good seeing sir

[@jaysoncody8716]

I bet it is allot better to store a boat in a dryer climate. Less rain, and low humidity means less chance of developing mold inside the boat, I would think.

[@davidwarnes5158]

Rain is good for boats with teak, hot dry weather will destroy your teak, dirt gets in a clogs the grain,

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

You both are correct! Low humidity is good for a lot of things on board (including drying out any deck rot) and not worrying about leaks or mold, but the heat is not the teak or window seals, gaskets, etc. Luckily, the heat in Ensenada is not as bad as further south in Mexico.

[@puretrouble1603]

Did these two really split up?

[@DDixon3121]

There are no more battleships in service. The ship in the beginning of this video is a Arleigh Burke DDG destroyer. Either built at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi, or at Bath Iron Works in Bath, Maine.

[@janicechilders4885]

My husband and I are missing you! Are you coming back?🥰

[@westmc45]

Welcome to Mexico I am currently docked in Mazatlan waiting for my Documents so I can take my boat down to Nuevo Vallarta, I just bought this two weeks ago now its a waiting game.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Congrats on your new boat!!

[@ibrahimjamal9235]

one day iam gonna sail like u guys

[@russyoder6312]

What happened to you guys? I miss your videos and your ventures.

[@louissanderson719]

They posted an update on their Instagram in 2021 and just left it there…

[@gilunionhall]

miss you guys - it seems like most of the posts with your responses are a number of months old - wondering if you could give us an update on your progress. thanks!

[@beedonn9260]

Hey guys, I just want to say that I love and adore you too I think you guys are pretty remarkable people you are on top of your game as far as sailing I hope you do not just abandon your followers. For those of us to live vicariously through your Channel please don't let us down please keep it up I understand and appreciate, and it's a lot of work but please please we love you guys keep up the effort. I think one thing that might help if you guys integrated yourself with the more popular KZbin channels sailing channels as is. If you could like meet up in Annapolis at the boat show or San Diego Boat Show wherever the way you will be come out a little bit more popular and people will see your faces. But I just want to say once again I admired that the effort the U2 of put forth and I love watching your channel as much as any other channel you are on the top of my list I'm saddened that you're not producing more content. But I'm hoping you will find some inspiration somewhere to continue to produce more content I get it takes a lot of energy and a lot of effort. Anyhow you guys be safe take care of one another and be safe

[@pantalonesfrescos1130]

Getting a little worried about you two. Are you still in Ensenada? Would love an update.

[@courtneygorman6491]

One thing you didn't mention was how much less energy the Spectra pump uses. Cheers

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

I think Ty may have briefly mentioned it, but you’re right - way less energy! That is their main benefit.

[@ahbushnell1]

good smoked fish at Ensenada MX

[@edwardweeden2834]

So glad to see you two UNDERWAY SOUTH again, even if temporarily delayed! Assume you are working in your former profession(s). Quick / curious question - does your former profession cover you two for Medical / Dental while in the U.S.? Will send you a 'San Diego Sea Story' or two (condensed but hilarious) while you are ashore, missing Lady Yaringa.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

For insurance in the past we have purchased plans specifically designed for people who spend more than 50% of their time out of the US. They are quite affordable for emergency-only (high deductible). We have had very little need for medical care while traveling (luckily!), but when we have it is very affordable to pay out of pocket for minor things in Latin America. I even received free healthcare in Chile!

[@jdlambert8]

Hello again. Still missing you.

[@tvonzweck]

Curious if you two are planning to head south after Nov 1? More videos coming?

[@KenWallaceFilms]

Looks like your KZbin channel has stalled out, but curious if you are still out sailing on your Passport 40? I'm thinking of buying one and was hoping to follow your adventure!

[@svbarryduckworth628]

I miss these guys too. As an East Coast cruiser I never got to run across them personally on the water but loved to watch their west coast adventures.

[@jackraley8854]

Visit Zihuatanejo a beautiful fishing village. Ixtapa, the small Las Vegas

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

We spent about 3 weeks there on our previous boat, Varuna! Nice place indeed :)

[@panther105]

A little confused. You just arrived at this marina and checked in....and they are going to allow you to dock for a few months? I'm assuming some prepayment of the dock fees? Will anyone be checking your boat from time to time to make sure it's ok.? I always thought long term docking would have a waiting list...

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Depends on when and where for marinas - we had been in contact with these guys ahead of time to arrange a slip. Some places have waitlists, some places are busy certain times of year, and some places you get lucky and there's availability.

Ok, I’m confused... what happened with Makara? Am I missing a video? I’ve gone back through all your videos and can’t find any that deal with another new boat. What gives?

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

This vid should give a pretty good recap! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXm8k3WFdqqclZY

[@olumjumi]

great to catch up and hear about how well it went checking in to mexico,... you brought back the history with mentioning the TIP and your sun pure water maker.

[@MrRourk]

Have some tequila and celebrate!

[@Friedolays]

Are you guys still alive? Together? What happened

[@davidsharpe7644]

Have you thrown in the towel now? Its been almost a year since the last video!

[@allynonderdonk7577]

Those Spectra watermakers are a joke. Sailing Uma just put one in...the thing is they could have bought a sunpure and two extra flexible solar panels to make up for the extra energy draw and been up seven grand. Most Clark pump watermaker pumps need to be completely rebuilt every 1000 hours. The Specrtas have no joke like 90 seals and o-rings. All that rubber wearing down all the time. The pressure washer pumps like the Sun pure has have pistons like a car engine. Most cruisers will probably die before needing to rebuild one of those pressure pump.s When yours goes it is $1800 for a rebuild. Buy another Sun Pure and sell your husk and you will be about even. An even better idea sell it now while it still works and go get a Sun pure.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Yes, amazing what you can sell and prices you can charge with marketing. As someone else mentioned, the energy savings with a Clark pump is a huge benefit, depending on your battery bank and solar setup. But we like being able to fix things easily. Trying to limit our projects at the moment, but we may consider switching in the future.

[@wonderinggrump3893]

You guys still alive ?

[@svbarryduckworth628]

Hope that you guys are done with the dirt jobs soon and back to cruising. It's always about funding the life, isn't it?

[@svbarryduckworth628]

Just came by to see if you guys had any news but I bet you are going to keep working long enough to make a big fat cruising kitty so your next cruise can last much longer. Jumping back and forth often between land and cruising is a pain as I know you are well aware with your recent multiple boat shell game. Make it worth it so you can stay out longer. We just spent a month on the hard this spring and then just a few weeks later got hit by lightning so we had to go right back into a marina for a short haulout and a mast rebuild while we spent another month doing a complete electronics refit in a slip. Good thing we have good insurance or.else we would be needing to get dirt jobs as well. But marina life is not cruising :( -especially when the boat is constantly torn apart. It seems complete electronics refits mess stuff up more than anything else short of fiberglass repair.

There are only two "a"s in Tijuana so it's correctly pronounced Tee-WAH-nah and not like your aunt (tia) Juana.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

Thanks - guess I'm falling into the old habit of pronouncing things the gringo way ;)

[@GeorgeGraves]

You two have a Mexico thing. Urrr. Not me. So much poverty and theft. And corruption.

[@AdventureAdriftSailing]

We love Mexico! Definitely poverty, as you mentioned, but gives you a new perspective on lifestyles and what’s important to different people. Overall, we have found the large majority of people to be extraordinarily welcoming, helpful, honest and friendly, to a degree which can be hard to find in more developed countries.
