Electronic dust😂We always tell people the reason we started a YT channel is because of you two! We remember you asking what we were filming for if we weren't going to do anything with all the footage. THANK YOU! Now we have an awesome video journal to look back on. The dolphin/sunset footage is absolutely incredible. Miss your faces!😘😘

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Awww 😭. Miss y’all!

[@mikegray1706]

Great video! Coffee in the morning with Brandy and Beau on the sea.....one of my favorite ways to start the day. Thanks!

[@BeauAndBrandy]

THANKS 😊

[@kennethpaladino4948]

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Glad you like them! ⛵️✨

[@aimeelarsen4980]

WOW! You both continue to WOW me. I am forever grateful that you document your journey and share it with me. ahhhh I mean all of us. 🤪 But you know this momma sits with dogs in her lap, and either coffee or popcorn depending on the time of day.... and we just listen and watch you doing real life together on the water. I can't even tell you how many times I've viewed each video. ❤ I sure do miss you and pray for you often. I miss and love you both!

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Love you so much!!!

[@deborahdoyle6743]

You guys do an excellent job of showing what sailing is really like. Thank you for sharing.

[@mikewatson6387]

Beau and Brandy this was one of your best videos to date I believe. I especially like when you guys were near Oregon Inlet, I have my camper permanently set up in Kill Devil Hills and I spend a lot of time at Oregon Inlet.as always thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you so much! ⛵️😎

[@sailorjim7115]

[@dougmarder]

Please do more of these! Your personalities really shine through.

[@georgemouliere8151]

Boy y’all did a great job on this video ⛵️⚓️

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you so much!

[@Life-Dreaming]

Thank you for showing your compilation videos, in addition to your normal weekly video. I really enjoyed the experience and explanation of everything. HAPPY NEW YEAR. Love spending part of my Sunday with the crew of SV Cerrsha - Brandy & Beau - Godspeed. 💙🇺🇸💚👍😇

[@briandale8386]

I want a heavy duty spinnaker . Like you see when 50 to 70 foot sailboats are racing in 20 to 30 knot winds . Nice array of gennys . Happy New Year’s

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Yes, that would be super nice. Happy new year!

[@jasongrinnell1986]

Yall are awesome.

[@deborahdoyle6743]

You guys have come a long way and grown. I remember when you were missing your keel and also almost sank. I was concerned for your safety but you have learned and grown.

[@kristaready8812]

Took me a few days to have time to watch this one but it was worth the wait. You two are just so sweet. Loved the sunrises and sunsets...... Something we don't always see on land 🤗💞

[@BeauAndBrandy]

You're the best! 😍

[@JohnLee-im7iu]

Great video. Love the commentary and practical advice. You guys should have 200k subscribers.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you! We sure would love to have more folks watchin!

[@JohnKenIRB233]

I look forward to learning about/seeing your experiences with a wind vane! I realize there may be cost/availability issues, but it is consistent with sailing to reduce your carbon “footprint”. Thx for bringing us along. 😊😊😊 John Ken

[@rayb3117]

I think this was a great episode. The format is perfect for you guys.

[@mikesteinacher1450]

You guys are an amazing and inspirational team.

[@joelquinn3953]

Ok I’m really confused!!! I never miss an episode, and somehow I missed this one😢 but I’m glad I went down and looked because it is a brand new episode to me 😁

[@Jack-gb1rl]

[@bryanrowell4793]

[@BeauAndBrandy]

see you out here!!

[@georgemouliere8151]

Great job

[@sailingwanderlust22]

We are also thinking of getting the bifacial panels. We have an arch on the back so thinking we would surely benefit from them

[@stanleyosburn867]

That's a beautiful bimmeny 😊.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thanks a bunch :)

[@craigkepchar2619]

You did a great job with the episode! I love you both and love watching when a new show comes out. Keep up the good work.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you so much, that’s super sweet of you ⛵️✨

[@georgelasko7019]

It’s nice how efficient your solar panels are now. Very flexible Hope you can keep that efficiency in the future!

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Yes we love them.

Furikake is what u need for poke it’s seaweed, sesame seed mixture in one

[@richardgooding498]

Yup, Beau doesn't like ducks sailing faster or something else. Forgot the other things. LMAO Great job Brandy for being on a slow boat unless another boat is near. Lolol

[@BeauAndBrandy]

🤣 duck, seagull, seabird..whatever

[@hankrichard6769]

That was absolutely great commentary the very first time I’ve ever watched and listen to an entire long commentary. Your adventure has been incredible and we’ve watched you for years. Please keep going very much. Enjoy your videos.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Wow thank you so much!! We have fun making these.

[@deborahcrowell7043]

That was fun. Hope you had a Merry Christmas and def have a Happy New Year! 🎉🎉

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Happy new year!!

[@barrettadvertising]

Love my Spinlock pdf. Bought it for a Bermuda delivery in 2002, I am looking to replace it before next season, probably another Spinlock, very comfortable. More comfortable a vest is, more often you will wear it. 😊

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Nice thanks for the vote for spinlock!

[@annec6339]

👍👍 really enjoy these behind the scenes videos with commentary. Hope you have a happy and healthy new year with lots of broad reaches and calm seas! ⛵🥳

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you soooo much! Happy new year 🎆🫶

[@deborahdoyle6743]

I rarely motor, but if you have weather coming I will turn it on.

[@lambertodgr8]

You should have done it before the innovation of gps navionics and electronic aids with only paper charts sextants hand held magnetic compass aback. In the day I used a lead line for depth sound er

[@amyturner7419]

Good morning you guys. Happy New Years Eve. Always look forward to your videos. Thank You

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Happy New Year to you!! ✨

Happy new year to you rwo

Happy new year to you!!

[@SirAdamMeek]

LOVE this LF content. If you really wanna get your channel to 100K quick, break these up into shorts and then link to the episodes you refer to in the description and card/end screens to help drive viewing time. A friendly tip from your neighborhood Marketing MBA dude 🙂 Aside from the Zatara and Tula crew, you're the only other channel I subscribe, Like, and comment to! You two are definitely humans I could hang with. I typically like dogs more than people 😁

[@SirAdamMeek]

Happy New Year!!!

[@georgelasko7019]

Love the voice over concept!! Very interesting content 😊 Have a very happy and safe New Year ! We’ll be watching and enjoying… Lucy’s parents 😊

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Thank you so much! We enjoy making these type of videos. Kisses to Lucy.

[@68Mustang390]

Happy New Year you guys. I’ve enjoyed your videos so very much this year, and I look forward to watching more . Be safe !

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Happy new year! Thank you so much!

[@ZeroDot42]

What a great episode ,thank you for sharing ... i noticed you boom moves down when bringing the main down. Is this a special feature of your boom and mast ?

[@moosesamli4569]

Happy new year guys. I wanted to celebrate my birthday on SV Hirvi today but it didn’t happen (again) maybe next year. Work in progress never ends. Brandy, did you make any Lakerda yet? Much love from AZ. And yayyyy my Lakerda (pickled bonito) recipe got a mention.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🎂🎉 haven’t had a chance but we haven’t caught any since you gave us the recipe.

[@moosesamli4569]

@@BeauAndBrandy Tonight’s celebratory dinner includes stir fried seafood medley, shrimp scallops calamari octopus mussels, proper hand rolled stuffed grape leaves, pilaki (sort of cold bean salad in olive oil), feta cheese, cantaloupe and the drink of choice is Raki (similar but definitely not Ouzo). You’ll never know how hard it is for a Mediterranean sailor to live in Arizona.

[@bryanrowell4793]

More lights the better at open sea… regardless of the rule. Safer. It’s the way.

[@michaelstone2469]

Looking at your dingy stowage problem, how about an air deck from boat world with a high pressure pump

[@johnbaxter8569]

When was this run up the east coast filmed? Thanks...

[@BeauAndBrandy]

August to September

[@scottwilson7835]

🎉😂❤ Happy New Year!!

[@richardgooding498]

Question??? Why doesn't anyone have a fish finder on board. They have visual sonar, depth finder, fish locator and description of the fish, current speed, and other things. Just wanted to know if you know.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Good question. We have a depth sounder, it can give us a speed through the water as well. So technically we could tell the current speed. We have a couple of friends that have fish finders.

[@curacao11]

Happy New Year😎

[@John-Nada]

I like learning about LuckGrib and Iridium GO for weather files. Do you use an iPad or just iPhones?

[@BeauAndBrandy]

we now finally have an ipad that we JUST got thanks to our patrons Chris and Melissa. but up till then we have used my iphone 8s the entire 5 years of sailing.

[@thecoastalsailor]

Hi Beau & Brandy, I've binged watch a lot of your episodes and I love them all and after watching is one I have a question. So I plan to buy a sailboat up in Myrtle Beach and take it up to see Virginia Beach for the first time then go back down to Florida. I'm really nervous about the ICW because I've never been on it so I thought maybe just hug the coastline up with land in sight and go up but if I go that route are there any places that you know of to anchor on the way so I won't have to travel at night?

[@BeauAndBrandy]

If you want to sleep, you will want to take the ICW. Depending on your draft and air height it should be an easy task. take it nice and slow.

[@thecoastalsailor]

@@BeauAndBrandy Thank you both so much for the tips but we found a boat for sale that’s already in the marina we wanted to go to. Thanks again and keep the show coming, I love em!

[@GlenKruse]

Hey guys, can you tell me about your cushions? They look really comfy. I have a Pearson 35 as well. Thanks.

[@BeauAndBrandy]

if you are speaking about the chairs, they were gifted from our friends dave and sara. they got them from west marine.

[@rickc9873]

How often are you on a collision course with a ship at night ?

[@BeauAndBrandy]

Ooh nice question. It’s very rare, but the alarm goes off once in a blue moon. Coming out of Guatemala a ship came pretty darn close, enough to call him and have him change course. We never assume they see us.

[@grahamwheelock7497]

Classic long shirts,long shirt pants come on Beau what is that your trying to tell us if you want to introduce square pants smedium shirt and sponge no sponge bob pants let us know in the comments below and please give a like both of them deserve it

[@zoesdad961]

I noticed on your video after crossing to the east side of Florida and again on the last video, the drone shots around the bridges. You might want to read up on the FAA regs for flying drones in the USA. They are noticing more KZbin videos with illegal drone flying. With more people flying them, the problem has gotten bigger. There are some pretty stiff fines (posting on/for KZbin is sometimes considered Commercial flying- fine of 32K/incident up to 250K and up to 3 years prison time) now along with confiscation of the drone. I really enjoy your videos and your style of story telling.

[@zoesdad961]

I forgot about the rigging issue. If the rest of the rigging looks good and only two wires broken, I don't think it was poor quality of the wire material itself. That would point to a manufacturing defect. When the wires are braided each machine must be in equal tension. If one machine is a bit tighter than the others that wire will be shorter and carry a bigger load than the others. When it fails, the next tightest wire will have its load increased until it fails. Domino effect. That wire should last longer than 5 years even that environment. Your rig is not that big and powerful. Stuff happens. This is why I prefer wire over Dynema or rod rigging. You would have been dis masted with those. No warning strand to let you know whats coming.
