Big Rolly Seas! - Sailing to a Remote Private Island in Antigua - Ep 72

[@ssheldon1969]

Another great episode. I like how y'all explain the history of places and such. A lot of other sailing KZbinrs are like, "let's have fun and party!" I'm more of a history guy. GREAT JOB!

[@robfraley4210]

Those were some BIG Sailboats ⛵️ there..!!

[@kailynelaw7311]

Beautiful shots guys! Definitely looked like a bumpy ride coming in, I would for sure get sick lol

[@samuelkeala7459]

May be you should collect sea shells and make a lei.😂👍

Great video with great footage, thank you.

Great video, remembering what it was like from our circumnavigation in the 1980s, presently cruising the Bahamas. My wife's book is a good read, published by Austin Macauley of New York, literally a fictional story of sailing and adventure: "Seychelle and the Cannabis Yachties". It is very entertaining, hoping you will give it a read.

So proud of my fellow Canadians. You have taken chances and are reaping the rewards!

[@SailingJibsea]

So worth it! 🇨🇦

Welcome to Antigua. I would've come out and met up with you guys but I'm not on the island at the moment. Hope you guys enjoy your stay. If you get a chance, visit Barbuda. Be very careful if you do visit there and stick to the main areas. There are a lot of reefs and heads. That tree at the 3:42 mark is also called a Dagger Log. At some point, a long like like limb grows out of the center straight up and flowers. We cut that part down and lash them together and make a raft out of them. Depending on what area you go to, be careful of what's called the manchineel tree. It bares a small green apple looking fruit that smells very sweet. Do not touch any part of the tree or the fruit. It's highly toxic and will burn your skin like poison ivy. Needless to say, do not eat the "apples" and they will burn your throat and cause the insides of your throat to swell up and block your airway. I've been to Toronto quite a few times as I have friends and family there. Made it up to Algonquin Park too. If you guys ever make it back to Antigua, I would love to meet you. Enjoy your time there 🤙 BTW this time of year gets churned up quite a bit making the visibility poor when snorkeling. By about the end of March it starts setting down and the visibly is awesome.

Thanks for sharing this guys! Great to see the little, "out of the way" spots. Awesome drone footage too.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks Greg! Glad you enjoyed the episode 😄

[@lloydbrown9327]

Hi from Canada!Love the video! How long since you guys left Toronto? I want that life!! How do you fund your sailing, do you get enough from your videos to keep it going? Don't forget to have a cold one! 👍 👌

[@markamsterdam539]

Nice video

[@RB9522]

The Canadian in you two comes out in every segment. Travis which "dreamboat" you were referring to was not clear. (careful) I did see your dream vessel. That was one sweet 130 ft yacht! The shots from the bow of the boat in the rolling seas really showed the seas. That's difficult to capture. It worked well, Stephanie. Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@SailingJibsea]

It’s certainly difficult to show the true size of the waves out here so glad we could do them some justice this episode! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@Horizonhunter76]

As always another great video! Thanks for sharing guys.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks David!

[@larrymayberry2312]

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks Larry!

[@michaelhensley4102]

Thank you for sharing your life.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks for coming along for the ride!

[@thomasbrasse3145]

Been there and loved that island. I look forward to visiting the way you do. Much more intimate. Doubt it will be on anything fancier than your boat but I can dream too.

[@SailingJibsea]

The best way to visit that’s for sure!

[@Willriii]

I'm assuming you have tried scopolamine patch already?

[@svZia-Switch51]

I think we are going to move over to “Foul Mouth” Harbor tomorrow or Sunday! Ha

[@SailingJibsea]

😂😂

[@joemckibben7757]

Great storytelling!

[@SailingJibsea]

[@Fatmorsyth]

You guys always create great content. Thanks for sharing! Btw I used to live in Ontario, you guys remind me of all my friends back in Canada!

[@SailingJibsea]

Thank you for watching!

[@roamingwithrandall]

y'all make me miss sailing way to much. Amazing video and adventure as always. Might need to get out onto a boat this coming year....

[@SailingJibsea]

We love that you’re still following our adventure! Hopefully so! Great times🤙🏼

[@Da89soup]

So Travis do you know what kind of boat your 100 foot+ dream sail boat was? Im just curious as I would like to look it up. I did enjoy you two yelling at each other through Jib Sea's hatches on where you were located towards the end of this one. You two are such a married couple just without the rings to make it official...

[@SailingJibsea]

Didn’t catch the name of it unfortunately! Too many gorgeous boats here

[@carrierserena]

She looked miserable, does seasickness ever stop?

[@brianbell7117]

Is the reef clearly marked ?

[@SailingJibsea]

We just eyeballed it! Easily visible!

[@evelyntate7186]

what country was your partner orginall from thanks.

[@SailingJibsea]

We’re both born and raised in 🇨🇦

[@stephensidaras7416]

Antigua is not volcanic. It is all limestone.

[@justinschwartz1433]

Guys! The Devil Lives in Canada and his name is Trudolf! lol
