DON'T ROCK...The Passage | PDG Adventures | S02E15

We continue to wait out weather and time the tides in order to safely cross the infamous Don't Rock Passage on our way south to the central Abacos.

A very enjoyable video. Thanks so much for taking us with you. You guys are a lovely couple with a wonderful dog…. it’s a real treat to be able to say thanks to you for brightening our day. Fair winds.

[@pdgadventures]

We're so glad that we can brighten your day! That's an awesome feeling so thank you so much for sharing and for watching.

[@obieandlaurie]

Yeeeesssssssss you two…..one of the better watches, solid story telling , filming, content and editing. Fun convos and commentaries….making coffee was good to see, cook anything else? Liking the added length too (had to fast forward thru some of the depth sounding nearing the rock). Best in the New Year. Cheers! 🤗🍻🤗🍻🤗

[@pdgadventures]

Haha! Yeah we debated leaving that much of the depth reports in there. We can definitely look to add some of our favorite meals on anchor to some of our upcoming vids.

[@tonyfromaus7855]

@@pdgadventuresI liked the reports. I really enjoyed the passage…. thanks.

[@mymortonisms]

First time I’ve watched your channel. Y’all are my spirit animal as I sit here in Oregon in 15 degree weather with snow in the ground. Thinking warm. 😂

[@pdgadventures]

Well we've been called a lot of things but that's a first!!! We have some friends who live in central British Columbia and they're sharing their "back yard" frozen winter pics with us. Makes our days seem just a little bit warmer 😂

[@dd214veteran]

I hope the algorithm sees the work you put into the videos.

[@pdgadventures]

We do too, but we know that it's only a small part of the puzzle. It's awesome folks like you who show up every episode and choose to spend your time watching our shenanigans. That's what really matters to us and we love talking with you too!!!

[@AskChristyB]

So smart to put the fenders ON the pilings! Love that you still call the windlass keeper Grover!!!

[@pdgadventures]

Hey when it works it works!!! We're still figuring out the best way to do the fenders. It may be a combination of on the boat/on the piling. Really depends on the winds and tides but we'll keep at it!

[@skdoremi6666]

Hope 2024 will bring you more amazing adventures ❤happy new year

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you!!! It's been wild so far...stay tuned 😂

[@Marge1957]

The videos keep getting better and better!❤🎉

[@pdgadventures]

We'll keep working!

[@herbertshook-ij2hf]

Y'all gave me and the wife the courage to do this we just bought a 30' Catalina and with in 2 years we are going to start our journey thank y'all so much I look forward to the next video

[@pdgadventures]

Oh wow! We are excited for you and your upcoming adventures!!! Where are you planning to go first?!

[@elissiadefoor717]

So relaxing and fun to watch! I 'm so happy you two are owning this adventure!

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you so much for the words of encouragement! Some days it definitely feels like the adventure is the teacher you wish you never got in school. Other days it's our best and closest friend. Not sure which is better at this point 🤣🤣🤣

[@Ash-qd7qw]

PDG, very much have enjoyed your videos the past couple days when "the algorithm" led me to you. Had to binge watch to get caught up. Actually, that was a lot of fun. Keep it up!

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you and welcome aboard!!!

[@jenniferselbee408]

Best part of the depth countdown was it didn't end in a scream! We are really enjoying the shots from under the haul and under the water. Way to go on this passage, pretty nice day for a sail. Paige, I agree 100 percent with the best part is turning off the engine and feeling the quiet. Can't wait for next Friday

[@pdgadventures]

Yay! We're glad you like those shots. We thought it was so cool to see the propeller spinning from the forward propulsion we got from sailing. Kinda makes us want to get some regenerative props. 🤔

[@ED3]

We ❤ the video. Music makes the mood. Well done.

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you!!!

[@GroovyGuy.]

Oh the drama... Will they make it through? Will they run aground? 4ft...3ft...2.2ft...I woulda soiled my shorts.😳 Nice job guys. I never doubted you (ok maybe a little) Another great episode. Thank you!

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you! Yes, it was definitely a bit nerve wracking, just glad we didn't have to get out and push! 😂

[@reynadelrey]

📌 AWESOME CHANNEL & A PLEASURE TO WATCH YOU GUYS’ ADVENTURES 📣 👍👍 CALM, LAZY SAILING❗️🥂😎

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting! We really do love the company on this crazy thing, and, yeah, after days of building up this passage a nice lazy sail was just what the doctor ordered!

[@reynadelrey]

[@Marge1957]

Love this!!!

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you!!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@brentwilson9330]

Love the depth reports and you sharing your nervousness. Would have been great to see the docking -- maybe a gopro mounted to a stanchion?

[@pdgadventures]

Totally! We are working on planning those shots ahead of time to capture moments when we are both busy. That seems to be when all the excitement happens (aka: when shit goes wrong). 😆

[@Harry-bh5dg]

Nice to see the passage in the shallows. I'm sure it tested the nerves. I know I haven't seen all your vids yet but is there a tour of the boat, how do you provision the boat and how often?

[@pdgadventures]

We will definitely need to do a boat tour! Would you be interested in an interior, exterior or systems tour? We may do one vid of each or one combined, not sure how we want to do it. We've attempted to provision for the Bahamas before we left Florida but there are perishables that we must get periodically through our trek. Winston eats a raw food diet so we have a large freezer with 2 months of protein for him, so we must re-provision for him while in the islands.

[@Harry-bh5dg]

I think I would like to see a interior and exterior then a techy one not that I know anything about sailing so if you do please make it simple or explain it, but I'm not trying to create you guys work, I just like watching your vids and catching up@@pdgadventures

[@143tinaed]

Another great video. Are you guys full time cruisers?

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you!!! We purchased our boat in August 2023 and have been full-time cruisers ever since. We were previously lake sailors so there has been a steep learning curve as we've taken on this new challenge.

[@paulafischl5787]

Where do you get your bottoms?? I love the skirt with the shorts underneath. They look so comfy! I just found y'all and can't wait to watch more videos.

[@pdgadventures]

Thank you! Most of my skorts are tennis skirts from Amazon. Very comfy, cute and convenient (even has pockets!).

[@paulafischl5787]

@@pdgadventures pockets!!! Even better! ;) any favorite brands?

[@pdgadventures]

This is my favorite one right now (not affiliated). But that will definitely get you started on the rabbit hole. I have three with different cuts and lengths since I wasn't sure what I really wanted while shopping online, but I wear them all!
