[@lucillerichard8981]

Glad to see you've returned to your videos, I missed you and Eric. Glad to see you getting used to your beautiful ship. You guys purchased a very good brand and she will service you well. Take care

[@havaseas]

Thank you! Sometimes life requires us to be off the boat and doing other things. Hopefully, I will get more videos out soon.

[@amandabortello505]

Just "Thank You", I so look forward to each episode, such beautiful places you all get to, Stay safe and fair winds cheers, Amanda from Tassie.🙃

[@havaseas]

Thank you! We have been so busy I have had a hard time keeping up. Will post more soon I hope!

[@rbc5878]

You had some beautiful weather for this part of your trip.

[@havaseas]

We did! Wish it would come back!

[@rbc5878]

Winter doesn’t want to give up!

Hi from your newest subscribers! That whole area is our playground on our little boat. We head out from Secret Cove and our usual area is Desolation Sound, Toba Inlet “Cor-tez” is also how we pronounce it and yes, there are bears in the area. Rare, but there are black bear sightings on that island. Black bears and grizzlies roam the more unpopulated mainland forested areas of BC. We love Squirrel Cove and Gorge Harbour on Cortes. There are many great coves and bays in that area. Thanks for making your videos! We only haphazardly collected video clips and dumped them into videos, but we’ll make more of a concerted effort going forward. Cheers from us! PS, we have some serious boat envy, lol.. Love your boat!

[@havaseas]

Thank you for your comment! We are really enjoying exploring the area! I highly recommend documenting your trips. We love watching the videos later and remembering the trips.

[@johnwheelwright799]

Have spent time at the Seattle Yacht Club property in bygone years. Nice to see it all again. Btw, it’s pronounced ‘Cortez’, with emphasis on the second syllable. Love your stuff!

[@havaseas]

Thank you! That was a beautiful location. I hope we go back there sometime!

[@rorygielarowski972]

What a absolute calming anchorage, Wow! February? Looks like summer from here! Thanks to Havaseas!

[@havaseas]

It really did feel like a summer day! We could use some more!!!

[@robingilmore1444]

[@havaseas]

Awesome! Thank you for watching!

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Cool learn all you can from Eric! Anyways good to have backup plans! Awesome! Stay safe Havaseas crew!! 👍👍👌👌👏👏

[@havaseas]

I feel much better now that I can at least get the generator on. I need to learn more!

[@rbm7101]

Very informative for us tech geeks. I always wanted to know the steps to operating the generator. Thank you for another great episode.

[@havaseas]

So glad you enjoyed the technical piece! I am finding I learn more as part of the video taping.

[@lewispaine4589]

I live locally to there, I've always known it /pronounced "Cor-tez"

[@havaseas]

Thank you!

[@JB-sc2di]

Great video! Always good to know how to operate the generator! Soon you'll be the co-captain of your little ship!!

[@havaseas]

It does feel good to know I can turn it on and off!

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Those out stations are pretty nice!

[@havaseas]

Very nice!

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Great episode!! Great walking trail you all found! Be safe have fun Havaseas crew! 👍👍👌👌👏👏

[@havaseas]

Thanks! Hiking was a nice change!

[@michaelpettersen244]

loving the videos!! Canada and Alaska are number 1 on my bucket list

[@havaseas]

So glad you are enjoying the videos! Beautiful area!

[@rbc5878]

That would be British Columbia and Alaska! 90% of a trip to Alaska on a Cruise ship is in B.C. waters.

[@Karla-Flr]

Wonderfull pictures !

[@havaseas]

Thank you!

[@sandraoosthuizen8422]

Love your adventure, thank you for showing this 💕

[@havaseas]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@mikepatton1489]

That is the best.Everyone should be able to get the boat to civilization.It could save your life.And his.When you go to isolated places, you have to remember where you are

[@havaseas]

Yes, I know. I have been lured into the feeling of comfort and safety on this boat. I know it is an illusion if I can’t operate the boat. I am working at learning!

[@mikepatton1489]

@@havaseas it is like everything to do with boats.The hardship is worth the destination

[@lesmoor001]

i envy folk who can travel and chill

[@havaseas]

We are pretty happy to be able to travel alone and relax…. Well, most of the time.

[@paulcunningham2859]

[@havaseas]

Thank you!

[@darlenes7067]

We are enjoying your videos and curious what APP you are using to find your hiking trails? You have found many we've never been on. And your hiking in Cortes Bay looks like fun. M/V Nordic Song

[@havaseas]

It is called “AllTrails”. It is green with a white mountain graphic. We hiked several on the island. So glad you are enjoying he videos!

[@jmsask]

👏👍

[@havaseas]

Thanks!

[@marcelocheves]

Hello if that place was named after Mr Hernán Cortés the pronunciation is Cortés with accent mark on the "e", you're welcome.

[@havaseas]

Thank you!!!

[@greglight3745]

Will you be in Victoria in May?

[@havaseas]

Unfortunately, not. We want to be back in Alaska by May. Hopefully we can make it to one of the get togethers soon.

[@bernisayachting]

we are new follower, you are doing so much great video… question what kind of video camera are you using ?

[@havaseas]

Thank you! We mainly use a GoPro Hero 9 but sometimes out iPhone 11. For video editing I use LumaFusion on my iPad. I have so much fun editing…. It is like a puzzle. Thank you for watching!

[@darrylb4048]

Bears, Yes. Wolves, Yes. Bear spray, smart. Regards.

[@havaseas]

Picking some bear spray up this week!

[@susanobrien3076]

Heart rate to 168, that was a stress test.

I was just happy it didn’t trigger a heart attack! 😉
