Intracoastal Waterway Cruising To Charleston | Sailboat Story 23

[@southerntexashomestead5028]

You did forget one thing. When you said some folks liked your sense of humor and you thanked both of them you forgot to say, Mom and Dad. ♡ We enjoy the family friendly content. Thanks for letting us tag along.

[@RocketRadioShow1]

bro you are funny as hell. kid is adorable. great family.

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks so much!

[@thomasmargolis3313]

A quality of life is evident. priceless

[@Sailboatstory]

Life quality is currently off the charts. Funny isn't it? Less belongings. Less luxuries. Less convenience. Somehow though, it all amounts to MORE.

[@whotknots]

Oi, there's three of us who like your sense of humor bud, that's what thumbs up means!

[@franklinrice3361]

you three are in one shell never never change

[@Sailboatstory]

We'll do our best. :)

[@ziggyzig73]

Admittedly I thought your humour was a lil dorky at first but it's grown on me 😀 haha, I enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing. 👍🏻

[@Sailboatstory]

"Dork", is one of Tambi's pet names for me. No offense taken.

[@millzee60]

A minute on the lips, a lifetime on the hips :) Looking forward to the next one.

[@jimfromri]

Ha ha. Now you have 3 people that dig your sense of humor. Keep having fun and making great videos!

[@Sailboatstory]

Will do.

[@andybrown8660]

I so enjoy your channel, don't change a thing. Your daughter reminds me of mine when she was little too adorable. The way the humor just rolls out makes it fun to watch. I look forward to more videos

[@MichaelRankin70ad]

One comment from one goofball to another. You are a genuine certified goofball... LOL and I love it. When I first came upon your site I wasn't so sure I could sit all the way through one of your vlogs but in just a short time I realized that this was my kind of humor and your daughter sometimes steals the show from you. She is a cutie... Continue on and I'll be watching.

[@Sailboatstory]

We goofballs should form a private club and make fun of normal people.

[@amarilisveguilla2810]

Love you guys. Tammy and Molly are lucky to have you, you got a great sense of humor I'm the third one to found you hilarious, Thanks for the good vibe, and you're lucky to have a beautiful family. Bless you all. Wish you the Best!

[@jamminjr7856]

another great video. As always, love your family. We keep you guys in our prayers for a happy loving adventure.

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks for the prayers. Keep em coming, things will be getting serious once we make the jump to the Bahamas! Glad to have you onboard.

[@festitraining]

Another funny video. Great job guys....safe travels

[@davidmoran3659]

Great work! My daughter and I look forward to your videos each week. Molly is a super star!

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks Dave. Sitting in the boat, replying to comments. Just told Molly about the superstar comment. She said "she loves it"!

[@fxpthl]

First off, add another person who enjoys your sense of humor! Charleston is indeed a beautiful city. We visited it just a few days prior to the hurricane a year ago. What was above water during our visit was inundated with several feet of water three days later! Your family really does have fun, don't they? Looking forward to the next chapter.

[@Sailboatstory]

We do have fun. That's for sure!

[@tmwltrs]

As I am binge watching to catch up I can say that your humor is excellent. keep it up.

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks Tom! Glad you approve. :)

[@aimee65]

Thank you for sharing this video I love the city of Charleston ones of my flavors place to visit.

[@jefferymcgregor6371]

Your niche is new and therer's a market for it. Please keep going.

[@Sailboatstory]

Jeffery, we certainly will!

[@maritimetees2315]

your videos just keep getting better.

[@supershane1960]

Wow, you guys got a lot done in a morning... Love your videos, much fun and its great watching you all interact as a family... See you next time... ;-}

[@wornslapout]

You guys really crack me up. For certain, you have a N. GA frame of mind. LOL I live in Elljay, I get your humor and the things you point your camera towards. Funny stuff! Happy sailing, safe sailing, fair winds, and all the other good sayings you give boaters....

[@Sailboatstory]

Ted, always glad to hear from another human that gets my sense of humor. Keep on watching!

[@DonHarden]

Thanks for sharing. Loved the tour

[@ronlaudig4242]

Your crazy funny, and you have a wonderful family......

[@trevorhopkins5338]

A little late to your channel, but binge watching now. The army fleece cap is what drew me in.

[@orobiller1]

Another thumbs up Guy's!!

[@9thPyrate]

Love that humor... certainly!

[@Sailboatstory]

Thank you! Glad you do.

[@lipadier]

Best current boat vlog series. - Always a blast to leave the daily grind behind and screen-sail with this charming bunch. The Captain is quirky and funny, the Lady Commodore is suave and the Powder Monkey is as cute as a button.

[@alangwell1620]

great family, cute kid. thanks for the tour.

[@Sailboatstory]

You're quite welcome.

[@jacquelinemalloy4387]

you are funny! and the sweet relationship between you, and your wife, and your kid is cool to watch and totally relatable. your videos keep getting better! =)

[@Sailboatstory]

Jacqueline, thanks for the sweet comment. We're trying to keep it real, funny, light, and hopefully at least moderately entertaining. ;)

[@timothyblazer1749]

Yes. Yes these are normal thoughts to be going through your mind :-) I have yet to be able to "let go" completely, unless it is on the hard, or securely docked in a slip!

[@EZ2CRUISE]

Weirdos not us. Another great vid another big thumbs up

[@Sailboatstory]

It's a compliment. Normal is boring. :)

[@michaelcoontz827]

It's a hunter😀boom, I think she jumped a little. I laughed out loud. Keep it up, been watching from the start.

[@Sailboatstory]

Haha. Poor girl. I pick on her constantly like that. She loves me though.

[@mikea7942]

Salty carmel fudge......buddy! Great video.

[@Sailboatstory]

That fudge didn't last long at all.

[@nathanpearson7175]

Thumbs up. Great video.

[@4x4conqueror]

A Great Thumbs Up !!

[@USMCCGAGNG]

You guys are growing on me. 😃 I went back and watched your beginnings, love the new engine, I also have a Natures Head and I love it as well. Much better that all the hoses, valves and holding tanks. I like how you include your daughter, she is so cute. You all did a great job fixing her up before you left. Great electrical panels. Good buy decision. Are you a Veteran? I am. Never get rid of those sun glasses, they are now your trademark. 😎

[@Sailboatstory]

Dean, really glad that your enjoying the vids. Can you tell much difference between the old and newer ones? No Sir, not a vet, but I'm certainly a patriot - maybe that's why I am asked that question every once in a while. We love the Natures Head. I'd never consider cruising on a boat without a composting toilet of some kind now that we know the benefits. Loving the boat. Loving the journey.

[@USMCCGAGNG]

Sailboat Story I'm still catching up but I like your style, little stuff like putting the camera in the trunk and shutting the lud... you remember. I like the family poses very much. I'll be heading down to Charleston next Summer probably. I'm still fixing my purchase (since 2014) but we hope to follow your path. I would like to NOT use the ICE though. best of luck to you and your family. Cheers. ⛵

[@Sailboatstory]

The ICE? Did you mean ICW?

[@USMCCGAGNG]

ICW. My phone decides what I mean.

[@tavincent]

You hit Kilwins a favorite of Sandy's and mine. By the way your humor is still the same as I always remembered, Like the picture of miniaturizing me in a can. Glad you guys are have a great time.

[@pauledwards6951]

You defiantly captured my good side. Lol. Safe travels and fair winds. Till we meet again. "Canadian Paul"

[@Sailboatstory]

Oh yeah! Glad you saw your boat there at the end. Thought it made a nice ending clip. Looking forward to meeting back up sometime down the road.

[@vaughnherren8128]

I enjoy your sense of humor as well as your Jamaican accent. Sorry I can't afford to support you, I will be homeless soon. However, your videos cheer me up. Keep up the good work.

[@Sailboatstory]

Vaughn, no sweat at all! Just take care of yourself, and keep watching the videos. We appreciate your comment and hope you'll keep in touch!

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

Been watching you for a while. Finally getting around to binging on your videos. Keep living your dreams! We will be eight behind you guys!

[@Sailboatstory]

Glad to hear it! Eight what? Years?

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

@@Sailboatstory sorry, supposed to say right behind you guys! Four years (or less) to go for us. Would be Interested in a boat school video. Seeing how we have three sons. Not sure where exactly to start. So we are gonna get a boat!

[@Sailboatstory]

Robert Adams Metal Detecting Tambi would be happy to share about homeschooling. Send her a FB message to get connected.

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

@@Sailboatstory yes sir

[@rolandtaitt7155]

Yet another fantastic video. The opener of you spinning, then cut to your being flat on your back struggling to get ahold of something. Freaking funny!!!

[@Sailboatstory]

Glad you liked it!

[@JB-dm3nc]

When you ran that clip again at the end I thought you were going to wake up from a dream, or mild concussion.

[@Sailboatstory]

Haha! I feel that way everyday.

[@andrewayres7322]

Thanks guys great video..

[@joshsymons7478]

Easily my fav sailing family keep up the dad jokes

[@brentstafford9736]

I agree with the other two....you are funny!! And one of the reasons i watch your channel. There are other reasons. Nice family, spontaneous, share boat project information and more. THANKS!! By the way i have never commented on any sailing channel and am subscribed to over 50 of them. Keep it up my friend.

[@Sailboatstory]

Brent, wonderful first comment - and wee honored to be the channel that got the comment!

[@MsPdog1]

Fudge for the ladies. Smart man.

[@Sailboatstory]

Tambi LOVES fudge.

[@billb2176]

Charleston cruise was looking so suave and sophis' 'til Salty Sam (redoubtable sailor no doubt of a bygone time, was reduced to 'Meth-head Mike' in an instant!!!! Love the perspective. :-)))

[@Sailboatstory]

Oh man. Did I really insult a local legend?

[@martyhandley4456]

Man I'm ready to be on a boat full time......thanks guys, vids are getting cooler all the time.

[@Sailboatstory]

Marty, thanks a ton!

[@flowerpixie76]

I live 2 hours south of Charleston in Garden City Beach, SC and I'm just glad you guys didn't do any walking around north Charleston! That's a very bad neighborhood! Glad to see you went through my area though! Fair winds! 🌼

[@desertdweller4951]

looks like your closing in on warmer weather. thanks for sharing.

[@Sailboatstory]

It sure seems like we should be. It's coming in waves. We have a taste of "shorts weather", then the temp drops to the 30s a couple nights later. Either way, more South can't hurt.

[@jwulf2002]

Great tour of Charleston! Makes me want to take a trip there now. Safe travels

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks for saying that. We barely, barely scratched the surface, but at least it's a fair overview. Wonderful city!

[@nunsandcanssailingadventur9951]

Charleston Beach. Ur killin' me. Another fun vid! Thx.

[@curtisholt4703]

Great editing + great personality = awesome channel. Keep it up.

Curtis, thanks!

[@Gdindyvideo]

Love watching your travels, you have a lovely family, travel safe and Merry Christmas!!

[@Sailboatstory]

Thank you Greg!

[@dirtfisherman3489]

Hey Man, U. R. Undoubtedly 1 Funny/Goooofy dude! Butt hey, looks aren't every thang!?!? On the serious tip. I Love you channel! Been with ya from the beginning. I live down the street from ya a bit, in The ATL,Ga. I have a 9yr old lil Girl that don't get to see ever day any more. you have an Absolutely Awesome Family!! & are living my dream life!!! Thank you for sharing your family's Adventure with us!!! "Happy Holidaze" to you Guys.

[@Sailboatstory]

We really appreciate you leaving such a great comment. Isn't is funny how a North Georgian family, not too far from you, just went nuts and started living on a boat? Thanks for watching all of our vids. I'm especially thankful for the people who watched EVERYTHING... our early vids were bad, really bad. They're getting better though!

[@jackandfriends3658]

That little girl in the park was just too damn cute for words. I'm going out for fudge now. Thanks a lot. Like I need it.

[@Sailboatstory]

She was cute, but she didn't want anything to do with our filming.

[@jackandfriends3658]

Yeah. I watched her working it out in her mind and just settled for discretion being the better part of valor.

[@Sailboatstory]

Usually kids love me, but that one hurt my feelings a little when she fled.

[@jackandfriends3658]

I have the same thing with kids. People are always saying to me, "OMG he or she never warms up to anyone in less than a week". Think it's just because I love kids so much unconditionally and they sense it or something. But even I, once in a great while get one that doesn't just jump on me straight away, so don't feel bad.

[@gregcurrie982]

Very funny Ben. Have been off air for a few weeks and now catching up. Keep them vids coming!

[@subdrvr]

I looked at a boat there as well, her name was Ray. USS Ray that is. SSN 653 way back in the day. Spent 4 years on her. Charleston used to be full of old world charm, I hear its grown tremendously. Not sure if the navy is still there, I know they melted all the subs down into paper clips. After the hurricane washed the town clean they came back and rebuilt the town into quite a town. Would be worth touring for sure. I sure miss heading out past buoy 2 Charlie looking for deep water.

[@Sailboatstory]

Definitely worth the visit!

[@DesertSquid]

I was wondering to myself, "why haven't I seen a new video with that guy with my sense of humor". Then I realized that somehow my subscription line had skipped right over "sailboatstory". So, I had to watch it today.

[@Sailboatstory]

Oh no! Glad you found the new vid. I was proud of this one.

[@DesertSquid]

Nicely done!!

[@EdMcGinnas]

I sail out of that marina, most of the time by chartering boats from Charleston Sailing School. Great sailing school, Will (the owner) is a nice guy. And a personal note the Wapoo creek drawbridge was the first one I ever hailed to open.

[@Sailboatstory]

It's cool to see places in other people videos that you've been isn't it? Here's another perspective - It's cool to actually be going to places that we had seen previously in videos. It's kinda trippy actually. Really feels like you've accomplished something big each time we check something off of our list of "must see" places.

[@ericyvanteiva]

Awesome.best Rgds from downunder Eric⛵️🌅🍭

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks mate.

[@Jdonaboat]

Your videos def have a comic pleasure to it ;) yall have become one of my fav sail channels. keep it up and get down south before it gets too cold!

[@johnbolongo9978]

You guys are definitely growing on me .......kinda like Seinfeld. ...keep um cumin.....good work.

[@Sailboatstory]

I love Seinfeld! Definitely a compliment.

[@AndysEastCoastAdventures]

I like your sense of humour too, in fact your channel is one of my favourite boating ones at the moment. Normal people living a dream. Why no sailing though?

[@Sailboatstory]

Really? You like us at least 3 times as much as La Delos? ;) We do motor sail quite a bit, whenever the wind and the narrow river, canals, and creeks allow for som sail action. There's very few places to ONLY sail on the ICW, and when you are in one of those few places, it always seems like the wind isn't cooperating. Alas - more sailing to com for sure.

[@bokendrick6553]

I'm the 3rd person that likes your dry sense of humor. and by the way...Molly is the STAR!!!(just don't tell her)

[@Grandpacarlreacts]

Another great video. great sense of humor. You guys be safe out there,

[@Sailboatstory]

Absolutely. - and thanks for watching!

[@va7dgp]

we are expecting cold air from Siberia.I would not want to be camping out in a boat in our area. I guess going around in circles is almost like trying to be a big wheel in a kiddies park. lol. Keep it up as I'm one of the two that like your humour

[@Sailboatstory]

Haha! Glad to hear it, Don. The humor will continue!

[@Rodbod16]

brill as usual. ROD UK.

[@svamandolin3546]

I did Patreon for you guys. More laughs than your average Sit Com. Sweet family. "I think that is a Hunter" LMAO.

[@Sailboatstory]

It's not a Hunter? Haha - thanks for helping us out on Patreon. We're very grateful for that, and I really appreciate that you get a laugh out of the videos. Makes me smile. :)

[@kmires]

I've been following since the start! You keep getting better and better. Keep up the good work. And stop scaring children.... ;)

[@chasemixon6327]

loved all the single frame cg... :)

[@Sailboatstory]

I'm dumb. What's single frame CG?

[@chasemixon6327]

The quick flash of text on screen, sorry it's an old term (Character Generator) so movies are typically rendered at 30 Frames per second and one frame with text on there is almost undetectable. used to be call subliminal messages. :) hope that helps...

[@Sailboatstory]

Chase, thanks for clarifying. I was wondering if that's what you were referring to. I learned something today thanks to you! It's a good day.

[@LandoLeavesLand]

Man, I'm coming down the ICW but I got a 6'5 draft and 56 ft Vertical Clearance. I wish I could get into the places you did on your trip. Thanks for the reference points anyways.

[@Sailboatstory]

You're welcome. :)

[@surfindaddio]

Loving the channel and seeing how your videos are improving as you go along. And yes I agree with the other two, you have a great sense of humor. Kind'a. Hey, and one day you actually get to sail for real...... some day..

[@Sailboatstory]

Thanks for watching - and it's always good to hear that our improvements are noticed. How is "sailing for real" defined? Maybe you say that because this video is from us in Charleston. If so, I definitely get it. Lots of motoring during that time for sure! Over here though, in the Bahamas, we sail almost everywhere. It's great. Just us, and the wind and the water. :)

[@surfindaddio]

Ha ha, yeah you're right, Just looking forward to seeing you under full sail and on the lean. Thanks

[@flxsuki]

you guys are my far away family! lol

[@tateedwards9486]

Bah ha ha ha!!!! That intro looked like you had one too many....revolutions. Seriously good wholesome entertainment involving interesting and sometimes comical subject matter that I recommend any cruiser to watch. Hope to meet you guys one day when we start our sailing adventure.

[@Sailboatstory]

Tate, glad you enjoyed, and we too are always up for connecting with other whenever we can.

[@yankepilot]

By the way it is very normal to wonder how the boat is doing while your away from it. At least until you totally know the boat, and your trust in the boat increases.

[@Sailboatstory]

Makes me feel less paranoid. Thanks!

[@emh4th]

Yeah dude you're hilarious. Good stuff 👍

[@whotknots]

Wasn't Charleston one of those places made famous during the prohibition era of the 1920's? I seem to recall there was a dance called the Charleston back then and I associate the name with mobsters, speakeasies and "Chicago sewing machines"!

[@ceremonialguardsman]

You're turning into a regular Les Stroud with your camera skills.

Ft. Sumpter is in Charleston, it's worth the visit if civil war history interests you at all.

[@PaulSCantrell]

My first of your vids, but I'm looking forward to watching more now. I'm a Charleston native and my only complaint was your pronunciation of Wappoo. it's "Wah Poo" and it separates West Ashley from James Island. The high bridge is the James Island Connector and the low ones are the Memorial bridges and they are draw bridges, as well. if you come back through go see the Morris Island lighthouse, as it is completely out to sea at high tide. Morris Island connects to Folly Beach, where the real beach is.

[@bobahlberg6360]

great video "DORK"lmao

[@Sailboatstory]

Tambi? How many fake accounts did you make?

[@out_sailing3749]

You should have parked at the Carolina yacht club. It would have made for an even better episode.

[@out_sailing3749]

btw Charleston is my favorite US city. Great sailing in the bay in the shadow of fort Sumter. I hope you enjoyed.

[@kenlynch6332]

Very enjoyable vlog...I saw you put your camera down twice to get all three of you in the shot, and I'm thinking 'How long will that last before someone runs off with it" and then the third time that little imp (nice child) tried to snatch it and no one arrested you for chasing her off.

[@Sailboatstory]

Gotta get the shot! So far so good with keeping the camera from getting stolen. I've kinda wondered myself how long my luck will hold out.

[@ardith11]

I just discovered your channel and lovin it

[@bradkuether3561]

No, you aren't the only one that thinks something bad is going to happen to their boat.... I think we all feel that way..... Mine is in a slip, and I worry sometimes..... Close your seacocks, and for God's sake, check that your anchor is set!!!!

[@MeanJoeNSGA1]

You say about what people say about your since of humor. My wife and friends say I have a Warped since of humor. I got that from my Dad and also from the US Navy. lol.

[@oceandrew]

Yeah, you funny and all ... but your supporting cast is what really makes you look good. Dude, you a very lucky dude. Did you guys end up going up the Cooper River at all?

[@Sailboatstory]

Your 100% right! No, I dont believe we did.

[@johnkaveski7953]

brother your like me I carry my bug out bag every place I go

[@SenatorPerry]

In one of your next videos do you mind having a longer conversation with Molly and how she feels about sailing? Maybe a few minutes of what suggestions she would have for other kids near her age that would follow in her footsteps?

[@SenatorPerry]

Replying to myself because I am cool. Does Molly have an Amazon wish list that you could post for Christmas (or whatever holiday)?

[@Sailboatstory]

Will do. Absolutely. Great idea!

[@RocketRadioShow1]

Sailboat Story i would like to hear the details as to how you descided to sail, buy the boat...take off. i would like to hear about what you went through.

[@Sailboatstory]

You mean, how we got the idea, and how we implemented the master plan?

[@Sailboatstory]

Alright. We just recorded a little clip of Molly that we'll tie into the a future video. It'll end up being not the next video, but the one after, most likely.

[@LazyJacques]

Ha. Yes, I concur, that's a Hunter, all right. Actually, maybe a MacGregor... Was there a giant outboard hanging off the back?

[@Sailboatstory]

Ha. I laughed at that. Thanks!

[@donalexander2480]

If nobody mentioned it, I think there are gps smart phone apps that will alert you if your boat is moving... and can also monitor bilge water and battery maintenance.

[@Sailboatstory]

Fancy, fancy. Wow, technology today is nuts.

[@johnkaveski7953]

the wife and myself love the kids

[@redwood1957]

You should see what they are doing to that dock today

[@allynonderdonk7577]

I think the place you anchored is the place where they removed like 20 derelict and sunken boats. Maybe they got the anchor snags from the sunken boats right where you were on the map all raised and removed. Personally that anchorage is a big hassle and likely you will meet up with "authorities" which will give you undue scrutiny.

[@DDixon3121]

Your sense of humor reminds of "Vern".....know what I mean, Vern!

[@Sailboatstory]

Oh yeah? You should watch the very end of video 18... kzbin.info/www/bejne/ap_XpmNsettkiNE

[@billturner2360]

Thinking about if the boat is still where you left it and if it is still floating....... is very normal thaughts. Your good... not crazy. lol What is not normal thaughts..... is after a night of drinking at a local watering hole..... and then thinking thaughts like this.... ( Where IS my boat ? ) lol

[@Sailboatstory]

Good to hear. We're still getting a feel of what this new normal is like, and at times, we feel like we might be worrying too much about things. Always good to hear from you Bootstrap. :)

[@Witty9171]
