Four Stops, Four Days! - Onboard Lifestyle ep.169

On this weeks episode of Onboard Lifestyle, we spend a little time in San Luis Obispo Bay waiting for the right time to jump to Cojo Bay, Goleta Bay and Santa Barbara. The crew enjoyed each of the stops, but it is time to tackle a few major projects before we enter Mexico and Santa Barbara will be the right place to do them. Come back next week to see what we are up too...see you then!

Beautiful boat Teal, Linh and Emma! My wife and I were checking it out as we were walking around the harbor this evening. (Took a couple of pictures of it!) Enjoy your stay here in Santa Barbara! Mark and Grace.

Key kids..., again such a lovely, entertaining vid. SV Basik is a beautiful vessel too, more spacious than it appears. Fair winds....

[@stinker43]

I appreciate you commenting on showing good vids of this area. I've done the Pt Conception passage a couple times going south, but never been to SLO Bay or Cojo, and wanted a visual reference. THANKS!

[@robertlaird6746]

Goleta Bay has a very good kelp bed for free diving. There are many white sea bass and these fish taste terrific but they are some of the smartest fish out there and are very hard to catch especially when spear fishing.

[@lets_go_see_]

a lovely Bay. Nothing else around or was/is there. While you were filming a large fin rose then went back under behind you in the distance....

[@BigDThatsMe]

Now that's my gig right there, I love oysters, but clams in garlic or red sauce is my favorite. Teal, she feeds you well man.

[@linhgobenyt]

Teal loves when I make him clams in a garlic wine sauce. Add a crusty fresh bread and he is in heaven. 😊

[@kevine.phillips7578]

Excellent!! More violin!!

[@MarkZeds]

@15:40 there was a whale popping up for a breather.

[@dcrahn]

Linh, I still say you should publish a SV Basik cookbook. Lordy, I'm hungry!!!!!!!!! Croaker along with Whiting are two of my favorites.

[@OnboardLifestyle]

Maybe one day!

[@Metal0sopher]

Much better a KZbin cooking channel. She's already got the footage. Boat Cuisine! Cooking channels easily garner over a million subscribers, while sailing chanels rarely break 100k. Cook books don't sell unless you are a celebrity, but another YT channel focused on cooking could easily get them 1m subscribers.

[@waynelarremore516]

SO sad that we missed you guys in SLO. We will be there this weekend. Glad you all had fun.

[@fxpthl]

Great to some familiar anchorages along the central coast. BTW, we So. cal. Locals pronounce it Goleta(Goleeta). Too bad it turned out Not to be so comfy! Santa Barbara Harbor should be a very nice stop over for SV Basil! So much to see there and maybe, just maybe you will see a celebrity or two!

[@CesarGonzalez-kt7vp]

[@ronrobertson953]

Is that a dolphin over Teal's shoulder at 15:39?

[@linhgobenyt]

Lol. Yes! They are kind of shy, but still pop up around us. 😊

[@MtryCapt]

They might be bottle nosed dolphins.

[@machinesandthings7121]

I think it's probably people watching the intro advertisement and downvoting that, forgetting that wasn't the video.

[@rbnhood39]

Believe it or not, but I have read that there are people who have created bots that do just that, generate responses and unlike 👎 to videos. Like mass quantities of them to create false traffic. I don’t understand it.

[@linhgobenyt]

Well, you are in for a treat because the next few weeks will be projects and installations. 👍

[@M-Swede]

For me, the latest videos give me an opportunity to see the West coast. Most of my travels have been on the East coast. They couldn't be any more different. Have to get out there after things calm down a bit.

[@edquier40]

I get a kick out of your SB route down the coast and having 53 miles of East bound cruise..

[@travlnchaz239]

Wow that was a quick trip down the coast looked like great weather

[@linhgobenyt]

It's getting better everyday! Sunshine makes the crew happy.

[@DStrayCat69]

Wow! All of that Kelp... I would dehydrate some of it and use it in Miso Soup and grind some for green smoothies... It is sooo healthy, full of Iodine and other minerals :-) Carry on ;-)

[@kenvangoe9358]

Hope the cruise south goes as planned but as you head south the hurricanes that seem to come off the central America coast seem to be more frequent as of late but Teal has of course been watching especially down near the Baja area.But I'm sure Basik is up for the task.The fish dishes look get Linh and Emma sure is growing up. Be careful and stay safe love you guys.

[@linhgobenyt]

Hurricane season officially ends on the west coast the end of October. That is the perfect time to sail down the Western Baja coast and into the Sea of Cortez. We can't wait!

[@Foilmagnet]

Its all good with Tiel's fishing skills and luck. He gets his delivered. Really like the vids keep it up.

[@tanenolan]

i cant believe I'm writing this but some people will never learn... 12 oysters? That's just 6 for LInh and 3 each for Teal and Emma hehehe... next time maybe 18 so the rest of the crew can eat some more. Thanks for sharing your journey. Nolan,

[@linhgobenyt]

Lol, it was just a taste! And the ratio ended up with Emma 6, Linh and Teal 3 ea. 🤣🤣🤣🦪🦪🦪🦪

[@tanenolan]

l@@linhgobenyt lol its ok if you ever make it to New Zealand you can have my share.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Emma you tickle me! I love seeing what you see & experience. We went to a restaurant that had kelp on their buffet. What Teal pulled off, the same type of kelp? I guess a person has to acquire a taste for it. I've been hungry for Oyster stew now that it's getting cooler. I've never grilled them in the shell. They are so expensive here in Southwestern Virginia. Lihn, your a very good cook, your dinners all look very delicious. I've never had fish tacos. I need to try different ways to eat. I don't make big meals, just simple things now. Sunsets are still pretty while your anchored. I love the silhouette look. I enjoyed seeing those birds diving for fish, the dolphins swimming, the tiny octopus, & 'lil Compass getting to stretch his legs. Maybe we can review those hand signals again.

[@12VALVETORQUE]

looks like a either a Whale or Dolphin over Teals shoulder at the 15:39 mark. cant tell on my Phone's small screen. good job Crew!

[@tealgoben1781]

Dolphin.

[@billylallen2662]

I was wondering if anyone else saw that too.

[@justsomeguy6474]

15:39 dolphin photobomb.

[@RiverWoods111]

Teal, you got photobombed by a dolphin swimming in the background in Coho Bay the first night when you were stating you didn't know if you would stay one day or two! Looks like it came back for day two!

[@linhgobenyt]

If they are willing to photobomb us, we'll take it! 😉

Sooo uh... you did NOT have the bay to yourselves as you will see at 15:38....lol! Sea monster? Kraken? Giant squid? Moby Dick? Can't wait for you guy's to get to much more beautiful waters so Linh can warm up and Emma can see the crystal clear and aqua blue waters (with NO kelp beds) down south! Pictures and video never do justice.

[@dhamma58]

Back when AM was the only radio and before the advent of endless talk-rot, a daily event was the weather for agriculture and ocean...and very often the forecast featured small craft advisory for Pt. Conception to the Mexican border...

[@frankd2301]

Moral of the story is don’t arrive in the afternoon.

[@OnboardLifestyle]

With all the kelp beds, we felt better having visuals to avoid them. 👍

It looks like you are having a good journey. One day I want to meet a lovely lady and tell her about going sailing, scuba diving, traveling. Right now I’m just waiting for more people to get the vaccine. I found out yesterday by September 20th they are going to have the booster out for elders, and I will have to wait eight months from my vaccine. Then I will try to find her so we can explore the sailing bug. I heard at the university East Carolina they have a class for handicap to learn how to sail. When I was about three I wanted to built, and tinker. Then when I went to preschool and kindergarten I learn about marine life, sharks, dinosaurs, etc. then I wanted to be a scientist to study marine life and scuba dive. Then I had two strokes when I was a kid. I just learn over the past few years living on a sailboat is great physical exercise. So I can stay healthy too. ⛵️

My mother back a long time ago here in Australia used, to do them 3 ways, natural, Kilpatrick (in the shell bed of rock salt,in a bed of Wostershire( not sure of the spelling, and the availability in the US)sauce and under the grill for a few seconds. Finally oysters out of there shell, onto a cube of bread and a small strip of bacon across the top ,again under the grill, yummy.

I'm pretty simple. Fresh squeezed limes with salt and pepper, fried shallots, and oil infused scallions. Seriously perfection. 🦪🦪🦪🦪

[@tomatobrush3283]

Did you consider charcoal bbq? Might be easier, only issue when you go remote would be finding good charcoal and also maybe a safety risk.

The California coast is kinda of boring. Fun on shore but few protected harbors or anchorages. Looking forward to seeing Mexico.

[@linhgobenyt]

The west coast is actually pretty spectacular. It's just too bad the overcast takes away from what we get to see. Yes, there are very few safe harbors along to way, but the strength of the Pacific coast truly humbles you and prepares you for a lot of conditions while out to sea. That said, I am more than ready for clear blue waters I can swim and dive into as well as warmer climates. Cheers!
