Provisioning days are such a pain but it’s so satisfying to have a fully stocked boat!! And you guys did it all in time for a sundowner 😎🙌

@sailingjoco Жыл бұрын

Priorities my friend !!!!! ;-) we ALWAYS make it in time for sundowners 😂😂😂

Ive never heard of TD Bank. Thank god whenever i call my bank someone actually still answers the phone.

@sailingjoco 9 ай бұрын

TD is a big one here ! Hard to find a storefront in the USA for them tho. Thankfully we use more than one banking institution between the two of us for situations like these (if I remember to bring our other cards haha)

What a gong show that was! Glad you got back to the boat before sunset!!

@sailingjoco Жыл бұрын

Haha !! Living on a boat is tough work for sure ! Lots of people don’t realize how the simplist things like grocery shopping and laundry are 100x more complicated on a boat lol

They work great !!! Just a lil annoying until you eat em ;-)

Good luck! Love you made Sundowners a priority!

@sailingjoco Жыл бұрын

Haha always ! Provisioning is a ton of work ; you’re shopping for multiple months in one afternoon - it’s exhausting ! The sundowner helps to relax (and forget about how much $ you spent lol)

Very interesting episode🤓I will watch a few times over.I bought like 140$ at Walmart mostly cans and went back for more cans and some things like razors,alcohol and hydrogen peroxide,bandaides,flour,pasta and whatever I could think of and it was a mental overload 😝this was for my house not a boat and went from my car trunk into my house!!What you done is exhausting for one day.Sailboat Story did a great episode on groceries on their boat,how to have a system and she Wrote down where each thing -was so they could find it later.I would save the receipts and mark off an item that was used so you know what you used and had left.👍👍Good Episode 😊

Isn’t it crazy how expensive things get!! And yeah it was a very tiring day doing it all in one! Gotta take advantage of being able to use a vehicle when we can! Yup it can be tough to remember where you have things for sure lol! We saw SS’s video too :) they’re great !

Refrigerator space is precious

@sailingjoco 3 ай бұрын

Yes !!! Especially on our boat. Do you have a sailboat? What’s your fridge like ? Since this episode we’ve added a portable freezer which is amazing !

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve had my own bank lock one of my cards for purchases I was making. It’s the entire reason I now use multiple banks so that I don’t get stuck because my bank is trying to “protect” me.

@sailingjoco 11 ай бұрын

Oh crazy !! Yeah it wasn’t the most fun moment lol. Yah we have a couple banks we use for that reason too, 2 is 1 and 1 is none! Thanks much for watching & your comment!

It's better to refill than swap propane tanks.

@sailingjoco Ай бұрын

100% but some places they don’t allow you to, they require a swap so that they can maintain the tanks so they will last longer for more people . So - that’s a good idea too 👌

Yah , good is getting expensive !! Luckily we’re able to use a lot of canned and dry items ; harder to do while camping methinks. Need burgers !! Lol

Better than cost in Bahamas let alone not finding it there. Spare parts are expensive but not when you need them in mid ocean or small island chain with no items in stock or a store at all

@sailingjoco 9 ай бұрын

Exactly ! You gotta do the big stock up before heading to the islands for sure ; random things like paper towel are astronomically expensive !!

Living on a sailboat in St Maarten over $2000 a month for necessities for 2! I am hoping Florida is a bit less!

@@sailingjoco One of the last time we were in the Bahamas, the tiny supermarket the size of a 7-11 had no bread of any kind, no milk, no yogurt, (I spent a month looking for plain Greek yogurt once), no hamburger, no chips, no diet soda… what they do have is pretty expensive. We do a big stock up too. Thanks for your video.

@sailingjoco Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your comment Kathy! Yah it’s tough to find the foods we’re used to in the Bahamas - can’t believe we have found eggs for $12/dozen here! Insanity! I love yogurt in the morning too - one of our friends has a small yogurt maker on board , and they use powdered milk etc to make it. Might be an idea to try!

@shawnahansen8597 7 ай бұрын

@@sailingjoco great idea to stock up outside Bahamas since it is very expensive. It seems like a lot but you need variety! Oh and never too much beer - you need beer on hand if someone pops over to visit and for your sanity!!

Meow you're cooking' with propane! 😂 I've never been on an HR 352, but I was wondering how much standing headroom there is in the aft cabin. It is difficult to tell from photos, etc.

@sailingjoco Жыл бұрын

Not too much standing room back there , mostly sitting and laying down sleeping 😂👌 but can sit up and not hit my head (mostly) haha
