Great to see Chatterbox Falls again. One of my favourite destinations. I agree words and pictures can not give one the true Magnitude of this place.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

It’s def one of those places that needs to be seen to be believed! It’s incredible

[@rogerdickinson920]

Chatterbox falls, John Wayne anchored there in 1978

I hope you keep taking pictures and videos. I never took enough pictures. I lost most in a flood. That was over 20 years ago.Wish I could look back

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

So sorry to hear you lost all those memories 😞 we def plan to keep doing what we are doing and everything is backed up on two hard drives 😳

[@davidbamford4721]

It is good to see your staysail flying. It is a very useful light weather sail, as it gives a second ‘slot’ with the jib. It is also an excellent heavy weather sail, being closer to the centre of the boat as well as being smaller. When I had my old gaff ketch I would set the mizzen first, followed by the staysail. Then would come the main, followed by the jib.

Ah cool! We love hearing about how other people use their sails and configure them. We still have so much to learn and really can’t wait to get back on the water with more confidence after the holes have been fixed 😂

[@SailingSeaDreamofClyde]

Love those perfect mellow conditions for a lazy trip across the Salish Sea!

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Right?! Such a calm way to end the season

[@mikepatton1489]

I thank you so much for your videos. I haven’t been up the coast in 20 years. I can’t wait until me and my boat are ready.if you want to go farther north. You would love the queen Charlets

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Thanks for watching! Yes we are hoping to get to Haida Gwaii sometime in the next two years!

[@citronmetalworks2220]

We’re going to be harbored in PDX for a few years. Sailing up and down the Columbia until we are brave enough to head to the ocean! So excited to find your channel. Not alot of steel vessels on you tube. Thank you for you content.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying! :) It's always nice to chat with people who also have a steel boat because they're def a whole other animal

[@robinmassey9791]

TARYN, would love to see your yoga routine on the paddle board!

[@karemccray7156]

Dreamy!! You two are fun to watch and just keep getting better 🥰

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Thanks! And thanks for watching 😌

[@duncanfife918]

Brilliant scenery as usually, yous are very lucky to sail that area of Canada x

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

We are! Thanks for watching 😌

[@Coyotehello]

Hello, always good to watch one of your videos.! Me think you will have to do a night passage at some point as it quite magical. Also Good to see you are sailing!! Maybe it is just the videos but it seems like you are always in a rush to a destination and force to motor. Cheers! Hi Max.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Yep there’s def a lot more motoring that we would like 😂 such is life on the coast. We are hoping the next season on the water, once the boat is strong enough, we can sail in some heavier weather and get the sails up more!

[@cruisingjacksonrose7008]

Great video! Definitely scary to have a dead engine.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

It would have been a very long trip out of there without it too with 20 knots of wind on the nose most of the way out 😳

Thanks Kendra!

[@bertski60]

"dead calm". you ever see that sailing related movie? you guys ever plan on heading to warmer climates one fine day? maybe hawaii? there's an older gentleman (70's) who's made some solo sails to/from california that are here on YT. his channel is named christian williams. he's really a cool guy with a good sense of humor. anyways...thnx for the weekly dose of the west coast. well done.

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

Thanks for watching and for another comment! I always look forward to seeing your handle pop up. I’ll have to check both of those things out as well.

[@bertski60]

@@WaywardLifeSailing kzbin.info/www/bejne/oICZhqClesxsias here's the trailer to decide if it's your type of movie or not.. can't believe it was made way back in '89. nicole kidman must be older than i thought. : )

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

@@bertski60 thanks! 😌

[@johntrumpower1609]

What is the roll of rope for that is on the radar arch

[@WaywardLifeSailing]

It’s for stern tying!
