[@victorialawrence4782]

I'm so excited for you that you're home and happier. These videos are fantastic! ❤️👍😊

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks so much!!

[@lentongrovetrust5201]

Still one of the best channel, no crap just honest reality. Keep up the good work chap.

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks so much! Thats a nice comment to read! Always like seeing your positive comments!

[@andrewneely1652]

Yes, sail has become my favorite since I had back fusion a few years ago. I've taught myself from many U-tube videos like yours and just getting out there and doing it. I like that it is so technical and it always provides some kind of challenge. Weather it be low wind or having to suddenly reef the sails. Or having a shackle brake and my head sail wildly whipping in the wind. I like being out in the elements. Cold, rain, sun etc. Just plain fun. No loud motors. Being with nature. I Want to sail the world one day. Till then I will keep preparing..

[@earlashton1342]

Love, love , love New Zealand. Come see.

[@melee401]

Watching a well practiced and seasoned crew handle the cockpit only adds to the poetry of the boat whose commands they control. It is the motion of the centuries upon the art of the eons.

[@maryetdave]

Well, one thing that sailings taught me was patience, you learn to slow down and enjoy the scenery. Living on land we are always in a rush, rush to do the groceries, rush to go to work, rush rush rush. Another thing with sailing is you are much more attentive to the weather.

[@mariepavone6000]

You are such an inspiration, I learned so much from this video /lesson. Thank you so much.

[@sailinginstructor]

Your comments lift me up! Thank you!

[@rickczainski9856]

I love feeling the power of nature that sailing evokes as well as those peaceful, quite sails that cause introspection. I love to go find out what's over the horizon. I can only sail in small lakes at this time but I'm always searching for sailing adventures. Steph, you do inspire, keep on enjoying life, I love your passion!

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks so much Rick!

[@arefavionics6652]

Well done Stefan this is proper sailing ,amazing

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks Aref!

[@greggreen5624]

I've been sailing for over 40 years starting on a small 10' dinghy to 40 plus foot boats. I always learn something new every time I take my boat out. That's what I love about sailing.

[@sailinginstructor]

Now you my friend , are a real sailor! Over 40 years and still learning. True mariner. I salute you!

[@davefletch3063]

I am so glad you didn't disappear off of KZbin. I loved the balance and perspective you brought to lonestar and was sad to see you go. I knew it was coming though as I could tell the look on your face when your boat came up. Your channel is great. You are providing the exact type of information I was looking for and your an excellent teacher.

[@sailinginstructor]

Oh wow Dave! What a great compliment- made me smile! Thanks so much!

[@richardealy435]

I'M HERE WITH YA STEPHAN.... I appreciate the salt amongst us sailors.... never stop learning... and appreciating the tales and the happenings of those who've experienced the next chapter in our fantastic sport. You already know I've followed you... and that I favor you style, kindness, outlook on life... and attitude toward sailing and life on the water. I'm landlocked now in Mississippi, USA... but my heart has mostly been in the STT and BVI area in the Caribbean.... Love ya guy... take care... Capt'n Rick

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks Captain! I love to see your comments. Thanks for having my back! I would like to dedicate an episode to you soon!

[@melvinmercado8044]

Grande!!!! Amazing!!! Estefano!

[@sailinginstructor]

Thank you Melvin!

[@KP-lt4kt]

Awsome video!!!!

[@joecrafted]

Total noob who is looking to take sailing lessons after winter breaks. I've been on some sightseeing schooners and I found it such a thrill be harnessing the power of the wind to move through the water. I think learning how to do that while visiting islands or off-shore places I could never dream of going to before will be the biggest thrill for me. We'll see once I start doing it.

[@Sailingon]

Fab episode and turning into my favourite channel. Just bought my boat and eventually want to go down the same route. Can't wait to get out and play with nature on my own boat.

[@sailinginstructor]

Samantha Kerridge oh thats great news! 😀

[@SVImpavidus]

Nice one! This is going to be a great channel! Sail Safe. Ant, Cid & the Pooch crew.

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks guys!!

[@carycheshire8808]

These are interesting

[@donb4386]

I appreciate you have limited time, however that said I’d like to see you expand on a few of the items from the class. Such as who controls the TSS, how is it marked on the charts, what radio channels should you be scanning if you’re crossing a TSS. Let us know what you are doing with the main sheet and traveller and why while tacking. Sailing, especially high performance sailing is exhilarating when you have an understanding of how your vessel will react to your inputs. I liked the way you and the crew handled those maneuvers, specifically the communication. You’re right there is so much to learn.

[@sailinginstructor]

I hope to do some episodes with more detail. It was just a bit rushed having to film and sail and take note and pay attention. Maybe send me a mail with subjects you would like me to address and Ill do an episode. [e-mail]

[@zirania6895]

Awsome episode!! Love it! ⛵😊

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks!

[@rfairch75]

Thanks for the videos! Our dream of sailing away will be in about a year and a half.

[@sailinginstructor]

That sounds exciting!

[@noyz3]

Been on commercial vessels, yeah those huge tankers and container carriers, been working offshore in the OIl & Gas industry training marine captains etc. and now am wanting to get my RYA license and get my own boat and sail the world. Really interesting information on your channel dude. It really makes me want to get my qualifications and boat done asap and sail without an engine! Kudos bro.

[@sailinginstructor]

Thanks so much! Do the Master of Yachts yes! Its really great and you learn alot!

[@noyz3]

@@sailinginstructor yeah am searching for a location to do it. Maybe in Langkawi, Malaysia since i'm nearby anyways.

[@melvinmercado8044]

@goseasailing should learn how to sail from this captain!

[@jacolubbe9364]

Attended my first sailing school in Zimbabwe. Really enjoyed hanging in my harness to trapeze. Darting down wind at the sped of light! Enjoying every one of your videos. Keep up the Amazing work! Your almost blind fan from SA.

[@sailinginstructor]

Excellent! When Im back we go sailing!

[@paulthompson3487]

Love your videos. I own a 1977 Cheoy Lee Offshore 41. You ROCK!

[@wheminghou]

I love sailing because it is so similar to flying, which I cannot do anymore

[@sailinginstructor]

Thats so true! Its like flying!

[@bdjm8595]

Fun episode, always lot to learn, thanks for sharing!!!

[@SV-DEDICATED]

ALL RIGHT IT'S FRIDAY MORNING. TIME FOR THE FRIDAY MORNING PAPER BOAT PROJECT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stefan that course looks like the real deal.

[@jugaloking69dope58]

I have been eyeing crewsailing here in Vancouver bc.i know it's not so technically but this might have put me into overdrive to go for it this spring. Uncle and sons are tugboat captain s. Keep reaching for the stars!

[@sailinginstructor]

Go for it! 😀

[@resetyourdream2643]

Nothing better than the sounds, smells and movement while sailing.

[@sailinginstructor]

So true!

[@sailinginstructor]

Never optional! 😀✌🏻⛵️

[@Kyldrake]

Man, this gets me so hyped. I just signed up for a yachtmaster offshore fast track. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@sailinginstructor]

Yes thats great you getting Hyped! Good luck on your Yachtmaster- let me know how it goes!

[@syATLA]

What I love the most is beeing dependent of nature. I love to just drift in easy winds, listen to podcast and having coffee. 😃

[@sailinginstructor]

Isn’t that just the most amazing feeling! Thanks so much for sharing! That’s probably my most favorite too!

[@Murielbeets]

Good one! I'm a couch sailer at the moment but I'm thinking of buying my own rig! Is it true u don't need a licence for boats less than 8 m . Just asking . Great channel

[@sailinginstructor]

Licensing differs from country to country, so just google and make sure ✌🏻

[@Tamiyapower]

I haven't sailed in years, reckon i have forgotten everything, am going to try and find someone in Cape Town who might need crew for some day sailing and just take it from there :)

[@jasonbabicki5571]

I started a drinking game when I watch every time you see a paper boat project I drink man I'm hammered LOL

[@sailinginstructor]

Wahahahaha!!! Love it!

[@bonniecavanaughsvcontent3565]

Another awesome video, I wish I could find a man like you... I've yet to take my boat sailing, but that will happen soon... and then it's off to the Caribbean, I hope to do as your doing now one day... but I taking it one day at a time... I'll get there, but doing it alone is not as much fun as if I had someone to share these experiences with... I'm jealous of your accomlishments... but I'll get there one day...

[@sailinginstructor]

You are on your way to doing great things! Life has different seasons and who knows maybe we even meet up somewhere! You can do whatever you set your mind to! You’ve already made the first move now just follow through!

[@GeorgeGraves]

Do you think Aubrey is going to have to serve time for the Wamart shoplifting thing?

[@CaptMarkSVAlcina]

All I can say is you are Learning Sailing and seamanship. You are opening your mind and understanding that there is more to Sailing, it’s all the other things like ships flags,weather,tides,colregs,STW95 , IALA A AND B and so on and on it’s goes. I have one question for you. I was so sure I know the answer to this ,it was so easy but to make sure I look it up and didn’t believe what it said. So I ran up the maritime safety board and ask then the question. Who has right of way ( Power boat say 25 ft , rowing boat 25 ft and let’s say on a Lake ) So power boat with engine going and in gear and a rowing boat, rowing boat is on the Port side of power boat at right angles to it, who has right of way ?

[@sailinginstructor]

Capt Chef Mark SV Alcina rowing boat! 😀😉

[@sailinginstructor]

Capt Chef Mark SV Alcina if the captain of the powerboat is a nice guy!

[@CaptMarkSVAlcina]

The Paper Boat Project , is a big NO As both are power, one with engine one with rowing oars. As I said I had to look it up then ask the marine safety board to confirm

What were they at 15:43? Looked like a pair of divers fins,surely not? Or was it comorrant wings or some kind of flags tied to a fishing pot? I can't make out on my screen what it is?

[@sailinginstructor]

It was a cape fur seal!

[@rayhsetwo8594]

@@sailinginstructor ah ha, I see. Their tails are much bigger than Atlantic grey seals, and here in UK I've never seen a seal do that with his tail, normally if they're vertical in the water it's head up out of water, but never tail up like that! Interesting, thanks 👍

[@ourplanetearth1746]

You make it look like way too much fun I'm jealous😂😆

[@andrewchristopher7138]

Hi

[@robertmcpherson6008]

in my 40plus years off sailing and racing on everything from dingys to super yachts one thing i see repeatedly is poor use off boom traveler most people set the traveler and forget it but really when beating you need to adjust traveler so boom is center line when trimmed in more speed and points better

[@sailinginstructor]

Very true! When beating its best to have the traveller center yes so You can sheen in as tight as possible...

👊🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾 Awesome boy!

Thanks Dad!

Howsit Stephan. Bro i live in Saldanha. Would love to meet you sometime. Let me know whenever u are availible.

[@sailinginstructor]

Wish I knew when I was there!

[@guthmang]

You’d think the RYA would have an issue with training on such a small boat in such horrible condition. I’d say the sails were blown out, but that was probably 10 years before all that mold set in... ugh

Soon they won't be shipping our iron ore.. a smelting plant is underway to be built..so 5 years time should be complete..

[@gjpenaloza]

Nice video, although I’m amazed that no one (including the cool instructor) wears a life jacket ever. Once you are in the water is too late. Being a Yatchmaster is about building routines also, and putting your gear on is one of them.

[@sailinginstructor]

If I have to put on a life jacket everytime im on a boat i will almost never take it off… you also after thousands of miles start knowing when its necessary
