Anchor down in Poquoson; haul out in Deltaville

[@nedaz2]

I must admit those drone clips of Ruth sailing are inspirational.

Kevin, As always, you're skill and your honesty is above reproach . Not many would show you the hard times and the real times while working under sleep deprivation . Having spent an entire career working and flying on the back side of the clock crossing oceans I could feel your pain and recognize it's effects on you.. I simply can not help but enjoy your mastery of your Vessel . Robert North Star

[@DanMcAfee]

Happy to see you safely completed another journey. Thanks for all the videos.

[@dustanbalkcom]

Excellent!! I started a diving company in the Chesapeake about 15 years ago called Under Boats. We worked in the Deltaville Marinas and private docks a lot. I love that area. Someone else bought the company but I think they still work in that area serving boaters.

[@snakeeyes4424]

Nice landing you are such a good teacher. It is amazing how patient and how you use nature to sail and maneuver your boat and not using an engine; very inspiring...thank you for sharing my friend.

[@jackrabbit5047]

Your boat is so beautiful! Very nice drone shot.

[@snakeeyes4424]

Great video i enjoy all

[@legend343]

You are such a purist and for me it’s such a pleasure to watch your vids... I’ve just started to single hand and I feel it’s difficult but you do it without an engine😳⛵️⚓️ You’re an amazing sailor, meaning of course captain👍 Warren s/y Legend

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Thanks for tuning in, Warren, and fair winds to you!

You Captain sure knows how to handle a boat like a boss. Great job, thanks for sharing. Fair winds.

Kevin.... You’re doing a great job with your videos..... thanks very much....Stott

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Thanks Stott! Enjoy the summer. I assume you will have your cutter out for a sail?

[@reloadncharge9907]

and just like that, the season came to an end......well done, classic. Thanks, Andrew

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Ah, but the season never ends for us sailors, now it's the work season in the yard, ha ha ...

[@DowneastThunderCreations]

I'm happy to see you made it safely into port, Kevin. While I'm in the midst of designing/building my new sailboat (I'm a retired naval architect & marine engineer), you've inspired (convinced) me to leave out the auxiliary diesel. That's something Lin and Larry Pardey were never able to do! I'm up here in Milbridge, Maine, along the "Bold Coast." Black Fly season has just begun to wain, but the "skeeters" and horse flies are now picking up in earnest! Work continues as you and other cruisers keep a steady stream of inspiration coming. I'm eagerly awaiting your next video (they can't come fast enough). Thanks you!

[@howtosailoceans1423]

To my knowlege, none of the Pardey's boats had engines ... a retired naval architech/engineer? I may be seeking you out for consulting services ...

[@calvary1808farm]

Time to get that through hull fixed! That last bit of footage with all the sails out is very cool. Beautiful boat!

[@mrc1539]

Kevin your videos are great! I really enjoyed your drone shots. Your boat is beautiful under sail! Solo docking with no engine, that maneuver did not look rusty to me!

Ever do, or think of doing, the Great Loop? (through the Great Lakes, down the Mississippi, across the Gulf, and up the East Coast.)

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Nah, not a voyage for an engineless boat.

[@niallrath1925]

Glad to see you made it back safely. Masterly 👏👏👏👏

[@junk_rig_81]

Nice to see you back online and on the sea! Always so inspiringto see your boat peacefully making her way wherever you intend to take her. Do you enjoy, as much as I do watching your videos? Fair winds, keep strong and patient, and maybe we'll meet one day somewhere I yet only travel by videos!

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Glad that you enjoy watching the vids, fair winds mate!

[@bchrisl1491]

I’m glad to see you are safely in port. Excellent video. I dock near Reedville, so I’ve been watching your progress closely. So you went into Fishing Bay. I was waiting to see what the winds like going down that long narrow channel into Deltaville via Broad Creek. 😁

[@PaulusPHM]

Nerve wrecking, such haul out

[@maritimetees2315]

Kevin now it's time to get your vessel ship shape.

Love those drone shots of your beautiful gaffer. Glad you got some rest Kevin - serious stuff when you don't sleep. Could see it coming with your energy level dropping. Anyway too funny with the guy on the radio interrupting you. How rude! So what concerns me for us mariners is it will get more difficult to plan around and trust the weather reports due to the instability and ongoing Climate Crisis.

[@tobiashommerich4581]

What „climate crisis“ are you talking about? Please stop it right there, or bring scientific evidence that manmade CO2 is the controlknob for the earths temperature. What was the last book that you read about climate science? If you didn’t read any books about it at all, you’re just repeating the brainwashing of the MSM with your own voice , while you probably also believe that you’ve build up this opinion yourselves.

[@furphyman]

Hey Kevin you have a great looking vessel. Do you ever use a topsail? Might make a good video

[@howtosailoceans1423]

Ahoy David, I have a topsail but have not flown it in years--too much friggin' in the riggin'--they do give you quite a boost in light winds, though.

[@bodhi47]

I don’t know, the docking looked pretty ok to me 👍

[@gking5522]

Damn, for a moment I thought someone had videoed my mess up at the dock last Tuesday (July 2) when I came back from 6 weeks on the hard. We have athwartship current in the river and I totally missed the piling. But the engine was in idle/reverse, so I had a "do-over" with no damage.

[@charlessmith7911]
