How to Sail from USA to Caribbean

[@weaslerocks]

Can't believe I just sat here and watched a 2 hour video start to finish. I don't even own a sailboat lol. Hopefully, I can one day sail back to Grenada and enjoy living in a sailboat full time. Cheers.

[@deannacalef3513]

Your presentations are outstanding. The photography just makes me want to go there. You are an ambassador to the world.

[@HuubVlogs]

Thanks a lot!

Very interesting vlog, it is like a combination "How to Sail" and Travelogue video. Lots of interesting weather info for those who are not even intending to go sailing and helpful info on how to get supplies and parts for your boat. Lots and lots of time went into the preparation of this video. Thanks for sharing.

[@HuubVlogs]

Thanks Chuck!

[@dustyrose6883]

You are amazing HUB … we just bought a boat in st Croix and we’ll see you out there soon 👍

[@HuubVlogs]

Yeah! Be there soon !

[@Slacktidelife]

Ive watched all of your videos. And thank you for this one. It tells the inside scoop to actually doing it. Thank you again.

[@janccil568]

Excellent video! Thanks and happy new year 🎉

[@jimsingh3565]

Huub your videos are really helpful. You explain everything in such an easy way. Fair winds to you 🤟🏽

[@HuubVlogs]

Thank you!!

[@srg0075]

Thanks for the great and informative video illustrating the many practicalities and joy of sailing!

[@amberzambitionz1111]

I've just watched most all of your videos. I have seen you grow as a sailor and human being. I have loved it all, all of your videos.. & even though I do not know you, after having seen a lot of your journey, I am so proud of you. I root for you. I hope your life just keeps getting better and better. I ended up finding your YT channel looking into living aboard and eventually 🤞🏼 cruising (so, as a very interested potential future cruiser who will surely be starting right where you did..boat size and experience wise) I would really reeeeaaally like to know as a person (me) with very little $ (& without being offensive 🤞🏼!) how you can afford this, and perhaps how you/other cruisers are making any $ along the way and how you have seen other cruisers have enough money to stay cruising indefinitely. I am not a rich person and would be very grateful to know that aspect of it all. How much $ did you start out with on day one? How did you plan to calculate that? What did you set/make as a budget and for how long? ..and what about when/if you ran out of $ ...and so on and so on? Sorry for so many questions.. & Thank you kindly in advance 😊 ..from -A Canadian (Toronto) girl with the same kind of dream

[@amberzambitionz1111]

Also, I would be sailing from Toronto Canada - Bahamas...Big first trip… and back for Toronto summers.. unless I found a way to stay down south during the harsher seasons. I'm all in research mode right now. :)

[@HuubVlogs]

I make money as a KZbinr. When I bought the boat I only had enough money to buy the boat but at the time was making a couple thousand per month due to my building video. After a while that went away. I know people who live on a 35ft boat on a 500 usd per month budget. But they go very slow. I have to spend quite some yearly budget on electronics (computer, cameras etc) to make videos. But if you take that out of it, and do everything else cheap, I would say 1.000 per month keeps you doing things on a very tight budget. 1.500 per month gets you a better lifestyle. Unlike what some others say, boating is just not cheap... especially if you like to move and see many places in a short time.... hope it helps. Cheers, Huub

[@amberzambitionz1111]

That helps a great deal. Thank you. When I have enough to buy mine (maybe in 1+1/2 year ish. I'm half way there) I will have around the same budget as you did. Maybe just a little more ..plus.. I'd like to save just a little more to upgrade it where it's most important/& some comforts. However, I know I will live one year aboard through a Canadian winter while doing the work. Not looking forward to that part. Like you, I want to start my adventure asap also.. but! I will learn from others such as yourself and leave when confident. I am considering YT-ing as well..and I will keep watching for tips from you. You have helped me very much. Maybe one day I'll sea ya! ..Again, thx. Keep on keep'n on, sail strong Huub! @@HuubVlogs

Epic info bro🤙🏼 keep up the good work n sail on⛵️

[@HuubVlogs]

Thanks Jon!

[@ProfessorVolland]

Moin Huub, vielen Dank für deine Zeit & Arbeit, die du in die beiden Teile Karibik gesteckt hast. Es wird immer Leute geben, die es besser wissen oder anders machen wollen. Fakt ist, du zeigst Möglichkeiten auf, ohne zu behaupten, dass deine Lösung die beste sei. Daher verstehe ich einige negative Kommentare hier nicht. Es wäre schön, könntest du auch in der Zukunft weitere Videos machen. Ich wünsche dir immer eine Handbreit Wasser unter deinem Kiel! Mach weiterso meen Jung. Beste Grüße aus Schleswig Holstein.

[@HuubVlogs]

Vielen dank! Ich schätze es sehr !

[@mariemorrissey9378]

Well done!

[@HuubVlogs]

[@Hashstorm-lg4zo]

Well done mate. Very nice presentation.

[@HuubVlogs]

[@bjswope8797]

Thanks Huhb!

[@tomschalud5062]

Phantastic video! Thank you for that :)

[@morganstone4256]

Thank you for the awesome videos, you are an inspiration for me.

[@CanadianDivergent]

Never heard the term "white horses" and I went to college for Marine Navigation. its always been "white caps" for me.

[@ctndiaye1]

I love the new channel name

[@stardusttravelers4410]

Keep up the great videos!!! Can you make a video on your equipment you use for small boat sailing... I have a Dufour Arpege 9.9 m boat thanks..

[@Kit2Canada]

Superb!

[@adamPRFL]

Very comprehensive video. I couldn't find the route link on the video description for some reason (description shows empty). Thank you for putting it together 👍🏼

[@HuubVlogs]

Its sometimes hard to find the description tab these days on YT. Right under the title is a tab called "more". Which goes to the description. If you still can't find it, let me know. Cheers!

[@jimmerrill5471]

Thank you for your effort. Excellent

[@HuubVlogs]

Thank you sir!

[@wardell7]

Im a small boat sailor as well.... Can you do a video on your equipment onboard for sailing, GPS, Depth finders, AIS, and etc... I will be crossing the gulf of Mexico to Isla Mujers...and keep up the great videos... really enjoying you and your first mate now!!

[@brandonosprey7457]

He has a full boat tour with adventureman dan posted.

[@jimmitchell6611]

Well done

[@gerardomassa4881]

Thank you

[@6800891]

who needs a 6 pack course when you got this!!!

[@hagaiabeliovich4276]

A longer waterline is faster but not necessarily more comfortable. See the comfort ratio

[@iainnicholson4399]

Informative. Thanks

[@jeffreyerwin3665]

Joshua Slocun advised to head East until the snow has melted.

[@stevenschwagel8029]

I like the way to talk to thee iguanas. 🐊

[@ZwervenmetJuKi]

Dat moet een hoop werk geweest zijn om deze video te maken, hopelijk heb/ga je hiermee veel mensen helpen👍⚓😊

[@HuubVlogs]

Hoop t ook! Ja 5 weken fulltime ongeveer...

[@DWFOWLER]

MAN , I DO LIKE YOUR CHANNEL. YOU TELL IT LIKE IT IS. WHAT IS YOUR NAVIGATION DEVICE, NAVTRONICS??

[@BarryMularczyk-s3k]

This is good I'm thinking about buying a sailboat but I would have to find someone that knows this stuff

[@brianmock551]

Good!

[@MitchellTuckness]

I am sorry, what was the second app, No foreign ? I got navily, but the second one I couldn't understand the last word.

[@MVStarCatcher]

I read that Navionics was crappy and innacurate in the Bahamas. Is this true?

[@MVStarCatcher]

Where do I get this map shown in your video?

[@pablocassani9287]

Este muchacho lleva el bote auxiliar siempre a remolque esto le saca minimo un nudo de velocidad al barco y los tirones le sacan estropada

[@zbigniewloboda3393]

❤

[@deniselumsden6738]

Found the Navionics link , but it doesn’t seem to work

[@HuubVlogs]

The 1st link are gpx files. The second link will take you to either the navionics website or to the app if you have it installed. I just checked and it works here. Try it again or email me what doesnt work [e-mail]

[@Albertsjourney]

Helaas beetje te ver weg anders zou ik wel geinteresseerd zijn in je schip

[@humblestever24]

Your safety recommendations to inexperienced sailors was very poor. Just send a text. You should know how quickly things can go wrong.

[@pablocassani9287]

This young man keeps dingy in the water always this is very bad to the boat speed

[@SOLDOZER]

TRUMP 2024!

[@alexandertusenko9470]

Das ist gut!

[@christopherhughes8402]

Can at least one thing not have political crap inserted into it?

[@peteh8077]

​@@christopherhughes8402unfortunately no, not until people realize the government is the source of their problems and not the answer. In 2 party politics the govt always wins. Money always wins.

[@paulc652]

I wanted to continue learning until you lost me at the seriously annoying music.

[@whileysea]

Hi Huub. I saw, that you use a CHAIN HOOK WITH A RUBBER SAFETY. I am anchoring always but my Chainhooks come off in waves and more heavy weather. Can you PLEASE show me a Picture of yours and where I can buy them. Thanks Rover
