Living my own dream of sailing the world, beginning in Bahamas. (Ep 8)

[@BryanCooper-e7y]

We started and still watch Trout. He kept mentioning you. Glad we found your page. We love watching. You are so real and very informative. Great job. Looking forward to more.

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you so much for watching! I’m happy you enjoyed it! Trout is such a cool guy! Very happy to be buddy boating with him!

[@jamescarid3448]

As I'm watching your vid the snow is coming down outside. Your are living the dream. cheers.

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I don’t miss the Colorado snow in the slightest! We had a storm move in today, but it’s still in the 80s with sun. Just a bunch of wind. Thank you so much for watching!

[@TiffanyReed-ow9xj]

I love seeing how much more comfortable you’re becoming, and how much fun you’re having!!!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

It’s wild how fast the growth has been! Though today was the roughest consistent seas I’d ever been in. And it was gnarly! Autopilot couldn’t even keep up.

[@TiffanyReed-ow9xj]

@@AmysSoloSailingAdventures It’s pretty rad to watch and get a better feel for what your experiences are like. We can sit and wonder all day, but your videos really help us imagine it better!! You’re doing amazing!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

@@TiffanyReed-ow9xjthank you, sis! One day I hope you’ll be able to join me! ❤️

[@johnnylightning1491]

Looks like you're still having fun. Keep the good stuff coming and good luck finding that whale barf (amberglis?).

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you for watching again! If I find some ambergris, everyone will know it, cause I’ll be posting a video of yacht shopping for a 2 million dollar catamaran. 🤣

[@wallymarienau3771]

Very interesting in such a laid back way. Im so glad your lovin it and we're all excited to follow along !! I remember your friends from gcsm , super nice people .

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I’m not sure about all the people I met at GCSM. lol. 😜 I learned an unbelievable amount from you all before I’d even put the boat in the water. Priceless!

[@sailingonabudget]

Wow Amy, just came across your channel, all I can say is Kudos, high five, atta-girl and nice job ! I'm working my way through your videos and look forward to seeing how far you can go. I'm almost there myself, 2025 is when I plan to shove off. If you stick around the Bahamas maybe I can bump into you. Fair winds, Fair lady ! 😁👍

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you so much! 😀 And thank you for watching! I wish you the very best in your journey towards casting off! I’m not sure where I’ll be next year, but that’s kind of the lure of it for me…not making any real definitive plans. Just going wherever I end up.

[@StephanieBeckman-n6o]

I love your videos! Hope someday I can come on your boat!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Yes, absolutely! You’re welcome any time! ❤️ Thank you so much for watching!

[@seawench555]

Hi, Rookie, dig ur sense of humour, keep it up or you'll go crazy like me!! Dam sharks how rude taking ur dinner, just like that, probably better the fish and not u hey😲 great footage, enjoyed it. Also the lighting seemed quite dark, not talking about the cave bit, just in general. Thanks Karlene

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you for coming back to watch! Hahaha! I do silly stuff all the time, but normally don’t let it make it to the final video. Thank shark was insanely fast! One second I had my eye on the fish, the next second it was torn to shreds!

[@iainnicholson4399]

Fun!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

It’s sooo much fun! Even through the times of struggles on the water, I’m loving every second!

[@JCGible]

👍😊

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@rainfinger]

I hope you get the chance to cross an ocean. It will change you, presently sailing in Salvador, Brazil.

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Maybe not on Maritopia, but I sure hope to. I’m planning to spend a few years in the Caribbean in order to continue learning. But after that, my dream is to make an ocean passage. Enjoy Brazil! And thanks watching again!

[@SailinWithTrout]

Ya mon! ⛵️🧜‍♀️🌈

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Yah mon!

[@arts2412]

It seems like Trout is rubbing off on you or you rubbed off on him? Keep having fun for those of us that can only dream!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

lol. It’s probably a bit of both. With his crazy cool and silly personality, it’s easy to pick up on that. Thank you so much for watching!

[@stevepeterson5943]

Great stuff,fun. Glad you showed the stores I've been curious about supplies there. That cave was enormous is it fresh water, rain water in there? Also the title do you mean solo sailor, single-handed, or actually single. Not trying to be cute just if people misinterpret, i thînk you meant single-handed, all good matey : ) Pop that shark in the honker if he shows up again, ha : )

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

The stores are crazy on the smaller islands. They’re hit or miss whether or not they have anything in stock, or if they’re waiting on the mail boats. The cave was cool! It’s fresh water that drains in from above. For the title; both. lol. 🤣 I’ve never been up close with anything other than a nurse shark. That one coming out of the blue like that, seeing how fast it was swimming, was wicked! I wasn’t scared, but I also didn’t wanna hang around. lol.

[@ckfpv]

Hey guys i live in Jacksonville ,fl. Right down the road frm Greencove

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I’m not overly familiar with Jax, but I did go there a few times for supplies. Seems like a great city!

[@TiffanyReed-ow9xj]

Oh! Also…love you! Stay away from the damn sharks!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I’ll do my best. 😜

[@blanco.norberto-w6n]

Right in the middle between Acklin Cay and Great Inagua Island, there is an Atoll that has a strange name, The pigsty or some pig, what a name for a WONDERFUL place, to windward carry a harpoon or LOBSTER hook, before on the road prepare a good sinking long tongue Rapala lureUp to 15 feet deep, the wahoo will attack you

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I’ll have to check it out, cause I’ll be headed that way very soon. Your tips are so invaluable! Thank you!

[@blanco.norberto-w6n]

@@AmysSoloSailingAdventures This rice is a Cuban idea, out of hunger, but the Yankees chose the best: In the 1898 war in Santiago de Cuba, General Teodoro Roosevelt's soldiers mixed Bacardi Rum from the Cuban Emilio Bacardi with Coca Cola, BUM BUM, and said: General this is Cuba Libre, but they never told him that they were drinking. 👋💯🇺🇲🇨🇺

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Ha! I literally just had my first Cuba Libre yesterday! It was delicious!

[@SMM-Mystery]

As always, I love the video. However, I think I get more enjoyment seeing you settle into your nstyral sailing rythm and authentic self. Great job being Amy!!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you so much for watching! ❤️ I’m loving this lifestyle even more than I imagined! I’m slowly becoming more and more confident with handling the boat, and what I myself can handle.

[@mitakeet]

Re the camera issue, it probably automatically kept the 'shutter' open longer, which led to the smeared images.

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thanks! I’ll have to check that out to see if there’s any setting I can adjust when in darker areas.

[@mitakeet]

@@AmysSoloSailingAdventures I'm not a camera guy, but I believe you can change the ISO, though the result will be really grainy.

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Good to know. Maybe I can find a balance. Or just try to remember to use a different camera in dark places.

[@seandepagnier]

i just wanted to say that if you used the sails, the boat would not roll so bad

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

I’ve heard that a couple times, and can see how it’d be beneficial. I’ve always tried having the main stowed before I get to anchor, I’m gonna start leaving the main up.

Chinese fried rice can be with shrimp or lobster or fish (If it is fish it can be grouper, wahoo or red snapper) It will be 45 minutes 2 servings 1 cup Chinese white or double Carolina rice 200 grams of shrimp. 3 eggs 100 g peas 1 carrot Olive oil Soy sauce Step by Step 1First of all I want to tell you that each ingredient is cooked separately. In a saucepan, place olive oil and when it is hot, place the rice and move it slowly for two minutes, preventing it from sticking, just to seal it. When it is ready, add the water. Once the rice is made, it must be cooled, it is indicated that it should take one day to use it, but you can put it in the refrigerator to make this step faster. 2 Beat the three eggs and scramble the eggs in a wok or frying pan with olive oil. When they are ready, set them aside. 3 Next we do the same with the prawns or shrimp, and like the previous one, once they are done, they are set aside. 4 And finally the same is done with the peas and carrots. 5 When the vegetables are done, add all the reserved ingredients plus the rice, and gently integrate all the ingredients with a plastic or wooden spoon. 6 As you will see, at no time is salt added in any step, it is because the soy sauce is added next, which is quite salty, and this is to each person's taste, try not to overdo it because otherwise the dish will be ruined, Once everything is integrated, all that remains is to say... TO ENJOY!!!!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]

Thank you for the recipe! I love making new things!

[@MrCurtisass]

@2:38 HA!!!

[@AmysSoloSailingAdventures]
