Cheap Dock, BIG Adventure in SPANISH WELLS, Bahamas EP. 68

[ ONE TIME CONTRIBUTIONS ] bit.ly/3e5YE78
Spanish Wells began with luckily finding a safe and cheap place to stay for some weather, and ended up being one of our favorite discovered places in The Bahamas. Great people, local food, and endless beach to explore. We were in paradise!
We prefer living at anchor for many reasons. Privacy, swimming around the boat, dinghy adventures, the night sky...just to name a few. But once in a while the convenience of stepping off the boat onto a dock and instantly being able to explore the surrounding areas is a treat. Especially when its blowing and a dinghy ride to and from shore would be wet and windy.
Come along with us for the first part of exploring Spanish Wells and all it has to offer!
Enjoy! #digitalnomad #boatlife #lifestyle #epidemicsound #sonyalpha #travelvlog

that shot of the starfish in shallow water was excellent (@2:00)

More great editing with music and scenes blended very pleasantly. I guess I will settle for some silly beach running...😄

Very nice video, when you're learning new things about your boat some may not give the result you were expecting, just revert. Glad to see you enjoying your time on the Islands.

What was the name of the marina you stayed at in Spanish Wells & if you don’t mind. What did you pay? Love your adventure

[@wendymcdaniel7129]

We were very curious what marina you stayed at! Or was it a private arrangement?

Now you have a new problem......where to stow all that $$$ hose. I have enjoyed watching you and Katy learn and evolve as a sailing couple all these episodes. You don't mind trying your best, succeeding or failing for an audience. You have that Gentlemen don't go to weather thing down pat....haven't seen a tack on Seawind for many episodes now. Great cinematography on the beaches. The contrasting colors of the sealife, crystal clear waters, and Katy are magnificient! Think you recently rebedded that cockpit drain seacock that your sink is plumbed into. Consider carefully replacing that plastic tee and threaded hose barbs with bronze tee and 3 or 4" long nipple threaded in the seacock ,pipe fittings, and barbs to make strong to better support the hose runs. Use two pipe wrenches to add the bronze plumbing to the 1 1/2" seacock. Be safe
