Disaster sail to St Maarten, and we rescue a dying puppy! Episode 3

In this episode we sail from Peter Island, BVI, to St Maarten via Anegada and Virgin Gorda. The sail to St Maarten was our first real test for the boat, and it turned out to be an absolute disaster, including blowing out our mainsail. We spend some time in St Maarten where we get 3 more crew join us, and also rescue our puppy Marty! Videographer Erik also spends a moment in front of the camera for once. Hope you enjoy!

Saving that dogs life convinced me to subscribe to your channel. Keep up the good work and saving more animals lives! God bless. 🇺🇲

[@lorinoble3743]

I decided to start at the beginning. Love everything from visuals, to education, to the music. Phenom!

[@49otterhound]

Nice job rescuing the boat and puppy! Fair winds to you all.

[@ME-xq7lr]

I cried over Marty...but you all gave him the BEST life...bless

[@pollatso]

Right binge watching the lot from the start begins 👍👍🙏🇬🇧

[@conradsenior5843]

Glad you saved the pup.

[@debrasalt3598]

Thank You so much for adopting this beautiful Pup! I Spent 20 years helping animals as they (SXM) have a homeless animal problem going back 40+ years. I spent many hours to help the wee ones and also to bottle feed kittens and puppies as well! My Heart is still in SXM with the precious animals.God Bless the animals of SXM and Marty is one lucky boy-he is really a sweet natured pup.

[@robertburnett1970]

Bless you for giving that baby a home!

[@edferculo8887]

Maria’s personality, pronounciation, presence, her accent, her upbeat charm, make her the best voice to tell any boats story, especially this boats story. Her feelings for Colin are the icing on the stories cake. She must be your adventures permanent voice. And of course along with Colins. His vocals and story telling are double A1 as well. Heres to a great adventure in the making. And here’s to the rest of your salty crew as well.!!!

oh how this comment has aged 🤣

[@jamesyoung3998]

Cool story. Sail on

[@martymcfly4038]

Man this is sooo much better than Below Deck, what amazing group to save and care for the pup

[@JCAJCA3]

Guys, God bless you for saving that puppy! Very interesting story. Video's are getting better. Really enjoy them. JC

[@turtlequeen]

Hi there ! I was in St Martin during Irma , in my house in Oyster Pond. Could not bear to stay long after the disaster, so rented my house out and flew to Australia with a friend. now I live on a 43 ft catamaran with my partner whom I met 3 weeks after landing in Brisbane. I can relate so well with all your adventures. You had be young and determined to go through with the refitting the boat. Very exciting and fun to watch. Keep filming and sharing.Kisses from A 66 year young new follower.

[@davidnelson3411]

What a nice little puppy. It's great your taking care of him. Your getting all the hard times out of the way. Good times going forward.

[@Notrocketscience101]

Maria, is a natural.

[@davidcoulling4574]

You guys are the best and wonderful to see one tiny puppy given a chance in life:-) thank you from a dedicated dog owner in the UK :-)

[@alexthetic]

NZ in the house!

[@christopherblackwell9955]

The pup will stop biting it just what they do as puppies. God bless you all for saving him

[@CaptainOdark30]

IMHO the key to the success of your videos will be the honest portrayal of what is happening; the honesty of your first debacle ... was key to my subscribing... it's not an adventure till something goes wrong... keep up the good work...

[@ginivandermeulen3969]

Just discovered your show so decided to watch from ep 1. Loving it.

[@rickgee765]

[@steph01879]

Great job saving the puppy. So sad to see animals have to suffer like this one. Keep safe on the sailboat, especially that one where you are still working through the repairs.

[@somadevo]

Sailing life comes with it's share of initiations, but it's good to be in touch with what you maybe can avoid repeating. Seems there's a lot of beauty in your flow. Infinite Loving Blessings

[@nullrout556]

Enjoying the story, keep it going

[@sailinglattitude9170]

Great episode guys!

[@Centers4health]

Make sure to get some deworming meds for the pup, as all of you can catch those worms by petting him, and then forgetting and eatting something before washing your hands! We have dogs on our yacht as well.

[@kymberlyp4056]

Centers4health ~ I agree. 🐾👍🐾

[@aufachsejochen]

[@laurentfroggy6631]

Ok, I just watched all 3 vids and I wasn’t sure if I would subscribe but your saving that cute puppy got me. What’s his name? Going for number 4 now 😎 thanks and best from HKG 🇭🇰

[@working2bselfsufficient724]

Keep HKG free.

[@mmanut]

New subscriber & please be safe‼️🙏 Never leave for open water without being ship shape. U can & will die if things go wrong. Being the Captain it’s your responsibility to be in charge, don’t go back out until you’re boat is prepared. Digging your videos, your girlfriend is pretty, have fun, be safe and will be watching your videos. THANK YOU for sharing your story‼️👍⛵️ Vinny 🇺🇸

[@Mz420momentz]

I like.

[@JeremyTaylorNZ]

I was thinking that the edits for these initial videos was pretty pro for a superyacht crewman and a soldier! Got that explained at the end! Well, except for those phew/whoosh transitions at the end when you introduced yourself ;-p

[@mroberts7348]

I like Marty

[@petebig4425]

so jealous

[@dalebutler5957]

Show me the surf Collin... haha glad u well and living your dream... let me know when at a good surf location i will come join u hahah

[@billhanna8838]

one job at a time

[@peacekeepermoe]

Great videos, came across the channel as I LOVE the Lagoon catamarans. How much have you spent on the boat so far if you don't mind my asking? Liked and subscribed straight away :)

[@rossp1762]

nice video but please turn the music volume down

[@kymberlyp4056]

Ross p ~ I completely agree. I love the videos, the content and editing. The blasting music could be a deal breaker for me.

[@centermid7mb]

Important safety tip - check the weather before making a passage.

[@ParlayRevival]

centermid7mb yea I did not realize how far off the wind we would be able to sail in this cat and passage took us twice as long as expected putting us in bad weather overnight. Big learning curve.

[@kymberlyp4056]

Parlay Revival ~ Boating/sailing comes with ENDLESS learning curves that are part of the fantastic journeys. 😁 I’m on year 22 of full-time living and wouldn’t give it up.🌺

[@michaelp1258]

Hi I love your videos . I want to buy a damaged catamaran just like yours please tell me who to talk to. I'm a yacht builder so this type of work is easy for me . Cheers Michael.

[@gerbentvandeveen]

Great job jy thit met the boat. And take care of the puppie. We love him .
