Am sorry, this may be fun to quite a few people, perhaps also to yourself, but this was a great video of HOW NOT TO SAIL. A boat that is basically not seaworthy, a crew that knows absolutely nothing, equipment that is failing, this is a disgrace. I worked as a pilot for the coast guard in the Caribbean for many years and flew countless SAR missions. Accidents can happen at any time and you (plus your boat) need to be prepared for that. You were obviously not prepared. Do yourself and all others on the water a favor: get this boat in seaworthy condition, repair all the equipment, make sure it functions, get sailing lessons, get lessons in navigation, rules of the sea etc etc. Your life and that of your family depends on it.

I hope this was the low point in your sailing career. You and Mary have a good attitude, but you had your family out there. That boats condition was sketchy when it left the dock.

I've chosen to believe that this video was mostly filled with made-up drama for the camera and wasn't actually documenting all the dangers he put himself, Jamie, the crew of the Parlay, and his family in. I'm better off with 6 AGM batteries I have to constantly move around the cockpit instead of having an AIS! WHY BOTHER TO WRITE DOWN THE CHANNEL FOR THE RADIO OF YOUR ONLY LIFELINE OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN?! I CAN PROBABLY JUST RUN INTO THEM OUT AT SEA!!!! WHY SHOULDN'T YOU WAIT FOR THE ONLY SAILOR WITH ANY EXPERIENCE TO GO BELOW AND DO THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT HE JUST SAID?!?!?! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

man I hate saildrives! We pushed our boat with outboards, when we had a net stuck in the propeler you just pop up the engine, push down the spare engine (also used for the dinghy) down and get back to in in two minutes. You can service them and replace them without hauling out the whole boat, etc.

As an older lady over 60 who was around car guys most of my life, I gotta say I am stressed out just trying to get my car in shape to drive 1000 miles away to move. But to just to see the shape of the motor mounts alone on both your engines tells me you are putting your family in danger. Put batteries out in the boat, in the rain? Hope their not lithium, all you need is to add explosions to your little unsafe adventure. Get your engines, boat in good shape & get better training! Your family deserves that. Taking your family out unprepared and as unskilled as you are, is foolish but taking your small children out in those conditions is inexcusable. Take heed of what the seasoned sailors had to say to you earlier in posts and keep your family safe!!!!

I always Love to see your videos. Learning how to navigate a sail and keeping everyone safe is a Captain's goal. You do learn quickly and have support from Mary too, which helps. After reading many comments i feel you already know the severity of having so many changes to your voyage and improvement of your crew and sea skills. Glad Jamie was onboard to assist. We all could use a well experienced mate. Sea school and more time on the water will make you safer and future sails more comfortable. Don't be afraid and always remember to learn from any mistakes you or even others make. My goal is to learn something new every day. Lines on deck look cool, but always better in a secure box somewhere. Great high seas fix with the zip ties. Ospho rust elimination will stop rust on mount plates and ready the surface for paint to assist against corrosion. Ospho is great in the engine room and any iron protection. But be careful in use and onboard storage. Be safe and we look forward to another adventure soon. Randolph and Traci

This reminds me on a surf trip in France we had a van we were travelling in. The brake shoes were too thin so the brake cylinder overextended, leaving us with emergency brakes only. We drove around like that for a week until we were cruising downhill into an intersection and my friend driving ripped the emergency brake pull clear out of the dash (it was a 70's European van). We flew through the intersection between cars and fortunately it was uphill on the other side. We rolled to a stop and began searching residential sheds and garages and found some baling wire and bound the brake cylinder back together. The brakes would work if we used a feather touch and not flex the baling wire too much. Good times.

Nearly two decades professional sailer here. Epic video and well entertaining. You have the right positive approach and attitude its not always easy and keeping spirit is important 3. Bread knife is yours best friend when dealing with line around your prop 4. A tidy and well run ship is a safe ship. It costs nothing to practice good seamanship that line could of ended in someone else's prop. Not having AIS and monitoring channel 16 as required by law is reckless. 5.Most of your problems would be easily preventable by a reasonably experienced person guiding you through the beginner part. You took a unsafe vessel to sea and if you were to end up in a real storm or in a situation of distress both your crew and that of sea rescue is out at risk. Spend the money and get a professional to assist you with preparing your boat for safe passage and teaching you along the way. Its cheaper than loosing the boat or your life. Maybe change tack a little on your approach to seamanship and safety. I look forward to watching your channel grow and hopefully become a good example to many. Safe sailing

I guess a butterfly net to catch your drone wouldn’t be hard enough. Line cutter on your prop shaft isn’t practical especially if you’re coastal cruising in notoriously polluted marinas. I always jump in the water with reflective material because it won’t attract game fish. I agree good batteries on a sailboat are worthless. Learning chart plotting is definitely a waste of navigational skills. I’d never buy an filtration compressor they just aren’t practical when surveying or cleaning your bottom, checking through hulls . Never have a 40 horse power outboard with a triller extension sitting ready to drop in seconds as auxiliary power. Never stow unnecessary dock lines when you’re underway, what could possibly go wrong? I wouldn’t use a PFD in confused seas either, especially if you already have boat filled with knowledgeable sailors. Radar and radar reflective are definitely overrated in shipping lanes. Yeppers, you’re definitely off to a good start.

How do you buy a boat and get insurance/loan with no prior sailing experience/log/certification? I'm about to go get my asa 101-114 to even start that process because everyone has said that I can basically kiss insurance goodbye (let alone any part of financing) if I don't have SOME kind of cert/training.
