A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do! Good job Travis. Steph, wonderful backup! Stay well you two.

[@LeeYvesMexico]

CANADIAN'S!!! I'M WATCHING 👀 FROM MEXICO 🇲🇽 😍 YOUR CHANNEL 👍 GREAT CHATS, SO WHEN ARE YOU SAILING ⛵️ OUR GORGEOUS SEA OF CORTEZ??

[@rl8992]

We’ll done. Visit Jamieson factory tour in Dublin if you can.

[@sailingtootsiemarie]

Yikes! We have the worst luck hitting traps! Glad you were able to safely cut free! Get well soon, Travis.

[@SailingJibsea]

Yeah same with you guys! we saw that! That was a tricky anchorage to come in to at night!

[@feargallynn8105]

If you are l coming north toward the western isles of Scotland ( paradise ! ) stop off in Red Bay !

[@makoimaging]

You bypassed Wexford! Kilmore Quay is a great marina, I would have picked you up and taken you for a few drinks in Wexford.

[@timothyzingg4226]

I just installed starlink on my boat. 5 minutes, works great

[@jdbpescador]

hahaha, Missing lead belt and helmet

[@davestuart8864]

I love you guys!! Keep on keeping on ❤😂 thanks 🙏

[@peterfrebold]

...... yummy .... good lookin soup Steph, bet Travis enjoyed some of that after his dip in the pond .... glad that was a relatively easy detangle .... train ride into Dublin sounds like fun ... thx for the share .. as always .. never stop dreaming, just dream bigger ...

[@swiftjetgroup5766]

Great effort on the crossing guys! Been tracking you a bit since you arrived in Kinsale. Congrats!!

[@SailingJibsea]

Thank you!

[@stevebacon5466]

Class

[@duncanhalliwell1306]

For future reference! Add warm water to your wetsuit. When you enter the water, the pressure will compress the warm water against your body providing a temporary barrier against the cold. Stay warm and your cognitive decisions will not be impaired.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks for the tip!

[@markbegley1912]

On numerous times you guys say that you don't have something that you need!!! You need to take it more serious in making sure you have everything you will need when making any trip!!!

[@SailingJibsea]

Wouldn’t it be lovely to have anything and everything 😂. We make it work, otherwise we’d never get to experience or learn half of what we have 😊

[@lambac1439]

Great job jumping in the water and clearing the prop when you don't feel well, Travis!

[@SailingJibsea]

Gotta do what ya gotta do! Thank you!

[@to5msheppard]

I came across you two, great job in high seas. Im from Toronto, been in California since 6 yrs old, 64 now. I subscribed. I watch parley survival, Zingaro, Delvos, sailing doodles, sailing Sunday. How do you guys afford stuff? All subscribers? Or patroons or work from boat on computer.

[@SailingJibsea]

That’s awesome! The support of our videos that we receive from our lovely patrons helps keep the journey going!

[@DiGertsi]

@@SailingJibsea 72 patrons only keeps you guys afloat?

[@SailingJibsea]

It helps!

[@lisawoodall920]

Have lots of fun I sure enjoy watching your journey stay safe

[@SailingJibsea]

That makes us happy to hear! Thanks Lisa 🙂

[@bavariasuhl]

watching paint dry is more entertaining

[@SailingJibsea]

Lol! Thx for watching yet again 😊

[@2singingsquadronofficial567]

Soo cool. Good episode. Thank you guys! Great job! Curious about Dublin!

[@SailingJibsea]

Stay tuned!😆

[@stallion78]

You should have sailed the west coast, it’s much more scenic, you are going to miss some amazing scenery

[@SailingJibsea]

We heard it’s very pretty but can be quite rough. For where we are headed, makes more sense to head up the east coast where we make up for it in scenery! Stay tuned 😊

[@stallion78]

@@SailingJibsea thanks for replying. Hope you can see county Down in Northern Ireland, it’s maybe the prettiest scenery in Ireland. Do you plan on going to Isle of Man 🇮🇲?

[@saswatchco]

It's always funny to see your country from a foreign perspective. Hope you enjoy your time here. I did notice that you didn't pronounce Dún Laoghaire 😁

[@SailingJibsea]

Did we not say dun leer ee? Lol 😁 It wasn’t unsaid unintentionally. We often get surprised looks when we pronounce it properly 😆😆. We love Ireland!!

[@saswatchco]

@SailingJibsea 😂😂 I have to confess I can never spell it, and I only live 5 miles away. 😂😂 I just discovered your channel and I love it, I'll be binge watching over next few days 😊

[@portfoliofotoz]

For Pete's sake. Get some floating polypropylene line.

[@SailingJibsea]

Yeah that stuffs awesome. Too bad it’s pricey!

[@portfoliofotoz]

@@SailingJibsea Oh, no. Polypro line is dirt cheap. Not good for much because it’s hard to knot, but a hundred feet of it makes a good tow line for a dinghy and a great safety tail when there’s a swimmer off the boat.

[@svshadyinvestment6647]

Thank you for sharing

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks for watching!😆

[@daryndyer8282]

Travis, do you every loose your cool😂?

[@SailingJibsea]

Steph prob knows a few buttons to press!🤣🤣

[@scottoconnor3484]

Kninsale is great

[@SailingJibsea]

That it is!

[@JohnLee-im7iu]

Good thing you have the gear for cold water. You guys are very interesting. Other you-tubers seem like hedonistic alcoholics using other peoples money to stay unemployed and drunk.

[@svZia-Switch51]

Now I'm glad I never bought those inflatable fenders! hahaha. Great job guys, keep on truckin! We sail for Bonaire in October.

[@Mechone11]

You missed Cork (Rory Gallagher) and Waterford (crystal)...lol all the best

[@tac13001]

I see you guys are trying to sell your boat, are you going to continue cruising and what are your thoughts on the 42’ Hunter Passage?

[@philmarro1588]

Just about 25k. Awesome guys

[@SailingJibsea]

Almost! 🎉

[@HopeOfJoe]

Great easy going episode,guys. 👍🏻 Dublin should be fun.✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝 👙 🌞 ✨

[@pmacgowan]

Now Travis will appreciate the advantage of sailing in warm waters 🙂, Good work T

[@markocahoon]

I recently watched a free documentary, “Sea Gypsies”, on Amazon Prime. I think you two would like it. Enjoy. Safe travels.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks for the rec!

[@ysesq]

can you cover checkin/out procedures for the eu in detail please including port hopping.

[@SailingJibsea]

so far in Ireland, customs boarded our boat at our port of entry to check us in and that was it

[@ysesq]

@@SailingJibsea no zarpe required ? or etias ?

[@DuckshotProductions]

Nice job Travis get well soon. Hitting that up thumb! Safe travels

[@SailingJibsea]

Thank you!

[@silentscuba]

Starlink will change everything for you guys !!! We are using it on our boat now up off the east coast of Vancouver Island and it has been awesome !!! Great job on your channel !!!

[@SailingJibsea]

Lots of ppl seem to be using it! Not sure it’s in our budget though. Haven’t looked that much yet into it tbh

[@thomasconroy4684]

Wow guys welcome to Dublin, hope you feel better soon man.

[@SailingJibsea]

All good now! Thank you!

[@phillipl9746]

🖖

[@jedwilson4076]

you could try adding few kg of water to fenders

[@SailingJibsea]

That was what we’re thinking for future use!

[@BohemianBeatster]

Well done Travis. Great video.

[@SailingJibsea]

Thanks!

[@noelobrien9501]

Might be a good idea to do a Covid test Travis?

[@SailingJibsea]

Just a cold that has since passed!

[@noelobrien9501]

@@SailingJibsea good to hear! Enjoy Dublin

[@noelobrien9501]

I see it dragged on all the way to Scotland
