Sailing to Block Island, RI

[@DonaldCarten]

Awesome episode guys! It's great seeing Block from your perspective. Can't wait for the surprise destination!

"Smells like Freedom". Ur killin me....Lol. Great vid. Thx.

Nicely done. Love Block Island. Never been there for the 4th as weekends are crowded enough never mind a major holiday. Looking forward to your next video. I know where it is!

Great video! Plus I enjoyed the shot of the Nonsuch 33 at about 9:50. The Block is one of my favorite places. But I'm from RI so I'm biased. --Jim

John, welcome back, first watched you from France across to the USA and then down to the Bahamas, then back up to New York. Like the first mate. John UK.

Sure wish you'd have better luck with the wind. It seems Bear is almost always flying the iron genny....

[@kevino3129]

We wondered where Bear went. We spend alot of our summer weekends sailing to Block from Noank, Ct

Emotional about a boat going back to where it come from. What a bunch of babel.

[@spiderhedge9884]

Wow you got lucky with waves we sail To Block every year Last time we went there were Swells!

[@ronharbin6678]

I'm puzzled. Where have you been and why was this video from last July. You said in the video something about being in the Exumas next winter. Is that "this" winter? I'm planning on going there "next" winter (2017/18). In any event, I'm glad to see you have returned and hope you are back in gear. You are a great team and do a great job with your videos.

Thanks for the comment. Like other sailing bloggers, such as SV Delos, it is often a challenge to shoot and edit the video in real time. Too many boat chores and too much to see and do while we are traveling. We hope catch up over the off season and resume more regular posting. You can check out this recent blog post for more info: www.returntoseasons.com/2017/01/16/back-at-it/#more-5571. It sounds like we might be in the Exumas at the same time. Let's keep in touch!

thx :)

Enjoy your videos; thanks for sharing. How did you find a boat for sale on Block Island? Were you living in New England at the time. You mentioned something about Peoria. Was that a joke, or is that where you live?

[@Returntoseasons]

Thanks for the comment. We bought the boat in Branford, CT after viewing the listing on Yachtworld. The owners used to keep her there in the winter and then move her to Block for the summer. When we are not living aboard Bear we live in Peoria, IL. We are planning for more full-time cruising in the near future.

I wouldn't mess with that cat. I think it runs the joint. Or, maybe it's the harbor master.

[@Returntoseasons]

A very official feline.

Great video and subscribed! Then saw the Michigan sweatshirt at 5:00! 😔 unsubscribed! 😉

[@JLSOhio51]

Saw the Michigan sweater to, (I think I remember seeing it once before). Wouldn't unsub just for that, but I will say, "O-H!
