PERFECT Gulf Stream crossing Into the WORST haul out Conditions EVER

We had great sailing conditions from Bimini back to Florida but our good luck with weather ran out exactly at the time of our haul out. We always say... it could have been worse🤣

Billy, please listen to your wife. She's one smart cookie. 🍪 Good job staying calm. 👏 Thanks for sharing.

[@JG-wr1sl]

The true sign of a good captain...knowing when to back out and reset. Nice work.

[@PlanHouseLLC]

You are like a soap opera without the drama. I love that. Just, when I think I haven't heard from Billy in a while he comes through. Giving the sailing experience. It helps me remember how much I love sailing. Sierra is such a compliment to you Billy. You have grown the channel together as well as your lives. I really only watch for the Jetty content. 🏴‍☠😊

[@rmkep]

Lives well lived and you're so young! All good Tula crew and the hard part makes the fun part much more fun knowing you did what needed doing. You're living an ideal and exemplary life and have a great attitude. If we were your parents, we would be very proud of you both.

[@stateofmainefishing]

you two have a great life together LOVE THE CHANNEL

[@doittoday1]

Wind , rain and currents. I think yall did an excellent job.

[@Analog_nomad01]

Lots of stress to get hauled out! Glad no one was hurt!

[@srqlisa7881]

Wow that was a fast season down south. Have a safe summer. I bet you weren’t expecting the chill when you got home. 😮

[@tlowe2502]

Thanks guys welcome home, as usual GO JETTY GIRL. 👍🏻💕🐾🍖

[@fish1860]

We hate haul outs!!! We have a ketch so always had to back in and that made it so much harder. Great job!!! Next time listen to your wife!! She was on the money with lifting the dinghy!!!

[@richardchambers3093]

Don’t purge winter clothes,get vacuum seal bags,it enables you to keep them and save 80% of the needle storage space.

[@elizabethjocollins4313]

I just discovered your channel and have been binge-watching all your videos. It's a bit challenging to keep track of the order without numbering, but I love them regardless. God bless You Two Always. Hugs.

[@allenwilson9656]

Been watchin you guys for several years, so glad you've finally stepped up on the fish game. Now you need to learn to identify the fish better.

[@jpford1977]

Thanks for explaining your crossing details. I winced when you said seas were not too choppy. Thought that would bring on 30kn winds! 😮 Jetty looked so happy to see land as you were going through the inlet. My blood pressure went sky high watching your docking. I hate when wind, tide, current, slip location work against me. When Sierra handed the stern line off I finally exhaled and realized I had been holding my breath. Whew!

[@Life-Dreaming]

Welcome home from the Bahamas. After boat work done - new boat again.😃 Enjoying family is always good 👍. Remember to VOTE. 💙🇺🇸💚👍😇

[@w4vp9kf]

Don't feel that you're alone. A certain high profile Seawind in the far east has exactly the same squeaking floor boards [cabin sole panels] which they don't seem bothered about. On the first commissioning day they did it every time walking up/down the starboard hull sole.

[@mikehlavinka2964]

Poor jetty how to find a spot on all those rocks to relieve herself. She deserved the better, LOL. It would have been great to see more of your families enjoying your new boat. I guess I always love the chaos when friends come aboard.

[@jamelweatherspoon363]

Scary music when you docked. Made it sound like you were crunching sound like you're crunching the pier.😂

[@Maynesail]

I have watched all of your videos. Each one gets better and better. This was the best. I have had my share of scary sailboat docking with my wife. I could feel the tension in this episode. Way to go. I think you both did great. You work very well together. Forgiving the other after a tense moment is the key to staying together. Also way to go Billy for admitting your wife was right!!

[@angeloftheabyss5265]

OMG! Bananas on the boat!

[@nealrcn]

If new boats are anything like new motorhomes. Buy enjoy fix enjoy fix enjoy fix. After 2 or three rotation you get the thing you bought.

[@bobblack6816]

You are amazing girl!!! You’re the admiral, he’s only the captain 🧑‍✈️. I love Jetty too!

[@hugeblue]

6/10/24 - Good luck guys while your in port. Hope all your repairs goes well.

[@kevinhildum9186]

Wow that much gel coat coming loose? I wonder how much will be coming up and peeling later on not good

[@GregoryStrauss-tk7pe]

Billy wants to excel as a sailor and is very hard on himself when he makes a mistake or bad call. As for Sierra, wow!!! .,what a cleaner😂😂😂

[@TheSlider535]

Been following you guy for over 2 years, and this little lady makes the best 1st mate, God Bless !!

[@laurieswezey2867]

Coffee ☕️ chipotle…what about your MOM 😮😂 Great job despite the wind!!! The main thing is your still talking ❤😅

[@johnnylightning1491]

I guess it wasn't the best haul out in the world but it was successful. Once the work is done it back to wherever. Keep the good stuff coming guys.

[@dustoff1472]

Ever thought about using vac bags to keep clothes, sheets, towels, etc? It saves a lot of space. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing. Enjoy.

[@thadcalvert7466]

It's great to see all the fun ya'll had in the Bahamas!

Wow - with those cross winds I would have bailed on that one - especially when the gell coat guys called off for the rain 🙃 Beautiful Bahamas - I will sail there one day for sure!

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi guys, wow what a journey docking I was nervous for you guys and I wasn’t even on the boat/yacht/catamaran. Anyway, hopefully they fix up all your issues. Love the videos keep up the good work keep loving each other even through the stressful times Cliff from Australia

[@michaelbrannan4864]

That was exciting but Billy is a sailor and jetty is a boat girl

[@lets_go_see_]

You're hired ! LOL

[@Udwnh]

Pretty slick job, considering the conditions.

[@lazzj4995]

You got there in the end🎉. I was so happy to see storm gear in bright colours being worn. I dont understand cruisers with black or dark blue storm gear….if I go overboard i know i want best chance of being seen. Enjoy yr landtime and great coffees

[@rwhunt99]

Was just thinking; maybe you should get bigger fenders if you have a design issue with the gutters hitting.

[@MY_SOLACE]

Nice job as always. My boat is next door in RBM. I’ve been to CB a few times. Last time same kind of weather but no rain. Stern in on a 70’ is no fun. My son and I were removing the davit and having all seals replaced in FLL. Stay safe and enjoy the ride. 😅

[@seattletown3983]

"Practice" 😂 Its funny you still have a Washington registration on your car.

[@freedomwanderer91]

Great job. Hopefully youll be back on the water soon.

[@barbaralane9825]

Certainly high stress but would never know watching your demeanor. Hope you get your weather window for your southern voyage soon.

[@dustoff1472]

She needs a hug.

[@stephenoshaughnessy2279]

Nature is feisty today. Another news article showed a tornado wrecking a small town in Iowa. A long haul truck drove into a tornado. The truck landed on its side.

[@h2osmokey]

WoW still have Washington license plates. Seems it would be MUCH cheaper in Florida. Nice boat parking 🎉

[@tonyfromaus7855]

Would you have been better to motor across the dock end handing first the bow line then the stern to the dockhands then pivot on the bow spring and let them hold you to windward side while you come in? Assuming stern line is long enough.. good vid, thanks for sharing.

[@patrickjames1080]

Good tip!

[@lindabutler7914]

That was interesting

[@jerrybow8779]

Another great vid guys! So when the pacific crossing gonna happen🤙🤙

I love seeing Jetty...but hate seeing her getting older. Why can't dogs have the same life span as humans.

[@PondoSinatra680]

She is very pretty. Does anyone know what kind of dog she is? Or at least link to a vid where they discuss it.

[@richardchambers3093]

Yes our dog gos should live at least 30 years. 🐶

[@PondoSinatra680]

Update…I found their video about Living on a Boat with a Dog, and I’m happy to report that Jetty is an Australian Cattle Dog.

[@scottschwertfager9644]

Sun screen Sierra!

Seawind 1170 and Sailing Ruby Rose Seawind 1370 a lot of problems for all that money and not little ones

[@robertlaird6746]

3rd Yep, I also really like Chipotle but I don't get it all that much due to the price. If I want that taste than I make it at home and save. That way I can afford to get a boat and cruise like what your doing.

[@peterandersen8684]

Live and learn. Having the dinghy down was a dumb idea. Let me guess. Some of the incorrect work was done at the Bridgeport, CT marina?

[@sgtmayhem]

wow you got a lot of sun...

[@davidshafer1872]

Where did you video about the Nassau Coast Guard stopping you go?

[@flyingcheff]

"Coulda' went"...???? Billy!!

[@billberry557]

Irony ! Whne I viewed this video first from FB link and then later on KZbin I found it humorus and ironic. You may ask why I will tell you. I had watch a few weeks ago the Reels you (Sierra) had posted regarding your attemp at securing Insurance with all the agrevation and delimea's. Much to my surprise when viewing this Video "PERFECT Gulf Stream crossing Into the WORST haul out Conditions EVER" the KZbin opening posted an AD. The was an Ad for Insurance and how the Insurance Company was there for all of your needs. "Progressive" was the Insurance Company advertised . So like I said how Ironic and of course humorous. Entertaing video on your part interesting the blimishes in the top coat. aloha have a great day.

[@lisaparkin9246]

Where did you get that bathing suit top! I love it

[@ChrisHarding-lk3jj]

So the boat manufacturer did not follow the instructions provided by the flooring manufacturer for the allowable deviation of the substrate. All flooring manufacturers list how much substrate deviation is allowable. Most of those solid core plank floors are fine with a 1/8" of deviation and any more will result in joint awperation.

[@The.CoreyCraig]

What kind of starlink mount do you use?? Looking for options

[@wolflarsen941]

You really need to watch how you tan with your mask/sunglasses on..... you have a reverse raccoon tan!!! Thanks bahamas!!!!

Where are you guys? We are on a boat in the Exumas and would love to ride by and wave hi of we are close,

[@johnluke3425]

Do you think you would ever buy another brand new boat?😮

[@MarkLawrenceKiefer]

It never hurts to ask for someone to jump aboard and be an extra deckhand when you are doing the hard things. You can probably find a cool after market rub rail for a few thousand more than you are willing tp pay.

[@patrickjames1080]

Nice call, ask for help with a extra person

[@teslasgranddaughter3733]

Hey girl, been watching you guys for a long time and thank you so much for your content. I’m saying this out of love you really should be wearing a hat all the time. You’re probably *my best estimation* is that you’re probably at least quadrupling your son exposure because of the reflection of the water. It’s kind of like skiers and so you’re not just getting the normal amount of sun you’re getting a lot more. Right now you’re really young and so your skin is still looking really great however, best case scenario in 10 to 20 years you’re gonna look like the wrinkliest lady alive covered in sun spots and worst case scenario gonna be covered in melanoma.

[@djcooley7440]

What a terrible haulout slip! No wonder you hit the side. There are no fender boards between the pilings! (Yes, I realize that normally we refer to fender boards laying across two or more fenders on a boat, but they also reference the planks that are mounted to pilings for the same purpose.) Without those planks, there is no way to line up fenders on your boat with the pilings - especially in choppy conditions. I don’t think I’ve seen a haulout slip like that without either planks, or a floating dock at its base to secure to. What a crap haulout slip! That’s not on you guys. Most boaters don’t carry a bunch of fender boards unless they do a lot of locks. Also, sorry to see all the warranty issues you’ve had. I like some aspects of Seawind, but they lose me with a couple design issues and starting to question their QA. Best wishes on the repairs. Fair winds kids! 😊
