Ep 32. The Galapagos of Mexico, Isla Isabela!!

[@MikeLoveBuns]

Great sailing video! 😀⛵️😘 Mike from Missouri

[@mikeshiels1]

Your videos are beyond great, lots of intel on every stop, great mix of sailing that beautiful HC 33 and exploring when you make landfall. I love that boat, and believe me I'm taking notes on the toys you guys have to aid with exploring and having fun.

[@lisarowell454]

My partner and I stumbled upon your channel and have been thorughly enjoying watching. We pretty much just finished prepping our boat (it's done enough) and plan to leave in the spring time heading down the coast out of SF Bay, first to SoCal and the channel islands, then MX . We're sad that only two more episodes remain as the style and content is excellent. Hopefully you will find the time/energy to go through footage and release more episodes. We'd love to learn about your experiences going west to east as we're considering doing the same.

[@SailingVesselPrism]

I might be able to get back into editing here pretty soon

[@sysarila]

Great photography. Just the catalyst to go boating! Thanks for sharing.

[@user6619-k9t]

20:15 to 22:45, what a beautiful segment. Mesmerizing. The music and ambient sounds mixed... so we'll done. Thank you.

[@mikecolucci771]

your photography is awesome........well done

[@shorttailsail9516]

Your best video so far! Definitely one of our favorite channels, you help us get through the winter up here in Minnesota!

[@LifewithKenandJane]

Love the videos. Life with Ken and Jane. So different from our videos in the Mohave desert mining. It’s fun though. Enjoy you guys.

[@soving]

Top level production. Really enjoyed this vid.

[@gregsage1605]

You guys really do a wonderful job capturing the natural beauty of the places you visit. Its never rushed and always is interesting. Outstanding!

[@Bacoprah]

always exciting to see your new episode hit my feed! Another amazing episode John and Shannon, thanks for taking us with you! It's great to see such amazing wild life still thriving in the world. Cheers from PEI Canada, Bryan

[@Mardagan88]

Love the production value you guys put into your videos. Worth the wait.

[@MichaelPaulHenderson]

Freaking fantastic to see you guys! Once again, you've punched all the right buttons. Yes, yes, yes....

[@flittlefield]

Great Photography. Your the Best!

[@glenngutshall5507]

Good to see you all posting again.

[@lanestreet1431]

Wow, this is fantastic. The videography is like something out of Nat Geo, very well done. Portabellas, you can grill 'em just like a burger, or stuff 'em with a shrimp scampi, yummy. Take care scuba diving on limited rest, easier to make stupid mistakes when you are not at your best. Thanks for posting and fair winds.

[@franciscogil6798]

The guy did work for NG

[@thomaswilkinson6276]

Excellent work on this video Prism! I passed by Isabela in the middle of the night heading South and after this vid, regret not taking it in. I will definitely visit there on my 2019 cruise. Thanks for the effort and quality of your work. Fair winds!!

[@gidge34]

Amazing as always, nice job on the reco of the hooks!!

[@sailingsvscubaninja2653]

Nicely done guys! We anchored over by the pinnacles without issue. It wasn't as bad as it looked. (And it looked sketch!) Diving was phenomenal though. Glad to see your videos again.

[@Bigdog8120]

great episode! love your music choices, commentary, and the filming/editing is top-notch! cant wait til the next one!

[@davelikesyou]

Hello , I,m new to your site , love your videos, .......Canadian Dave !!!

[@dennismacdonald4086]

Best videos out there keep it up

[@mbiv2000]

Definitely in the top 3 overall sailing channels on KZbin.....Love your boat....I have a Tayana 42.

[@billhigh3217]

It has been a while since I have seen a new episode glad to see you both are doing well. I have watched all your episodes and really enjoy your journey from buying your boat to all your adventures. I have watched other sailing channels but like yours the best. I only wish you would put more episodes out but then you might not enjoy your lifestyle as much, sorry it is a little selfish on my part. Lol... I can’t wait for your next adventure, stay safe and good sailing.

[@khyvich]

Awesome video, y'all. I spent some time in Monzanillo back in 1991 after a hurricane on the Linda Mia II. Janet and I just acquired a 1982 Hunter 33 and may be joining the blue water soon.

[@robrijkmans]

Hey You are great Very like the use of the Dolly Slider with the camera Follow you gus From Israel Rob

[@georgehigdon4974]

You two are the best! As always a quality video, full of interesting sights and insights. Keep up the good work...

[@Chris-dp3rp]

glad to see you guys are back

[@northernfliteproductions3075]

THAT was one awesome piece of cinematography! I especially liked the added touches of real audio mixed in with the music. It has inspired me once again! Bryan from Vancouver

[@johnlcallaway]

Beautiful work on the video, thanks for sharing.

[@dennismoroney]

So sorry you got out of the Sea of Cortez so quickly. Would love to connect some time in the future. You guys are so good at what you do, and still so down to earth. I LOVE your channel, and your modo. We are moored in San Carlos, Sonora. SV Mayahuel....

[@fxpthl]

Wonderful to have another chapter in your travels. Can we assume the water temp. was nice? No wet suits seen. Great that you are traveling with other boats. Makes for more fun and it can be much safer traveling in numbers. Looking forward to more of the same kids.

[@BalancedLugger]

Worth waiting for. Thanks.

[@waynecampsmith7885]

Great job...........Thanks for the share

[@SailBeforeSunset]

Great update!

[@haroldgjr]

Absolutely stunning episode; the commentary, the photography, the music and your editing was first rate.

[@mason8997]

I was thinking the exact same thing! Well put!

[@chrisreynolds7164]

Me too......superb.

[@SV-DEDICATED]

This is a great channel!!!!

[@faircompetition1203]

Hank on , I like that . There is a lot going for simple and reliable . Want it and zip it comes down- always

[@arthurpryor773]

WOW...a great video....

[@wkw4095]

well, hello...welcome back!

[@captainmarkgray8856]

On my first day of sailing in the 1970s a whale hit our keel, garred the boat hard. It bounced back, surfaced and looked at us and then went under us but could have gotten angry and smashed us or our keel could have come off or on a clam day we could have been knocked overboard. That lesson always stuck with me ie: Even on a sunny light breeze day, anything can happen in a second so always be prepared.

[@alanmellor8002]

And your back!!! Miss ya!! Great episode!! If you guys need a hand uploading videos, you can mail them to me. I would be happy to upload them for you, and mail you back the flash drive. We can do overnight if you want. Would be happy to contribute. I live in San Diego, Ca.

[@jeffvw1994]

Can you spear and catch fish around the island or is it a refuge?

[@44dixiegal]

Another awesome vlog! Yall please be safe out there, sending warm hugs from North Carolina and im hoping yall have a Merry Christmas~●°•🎄🤗❤•°●~

[@SailingVesselPrism]

+SusieQ Avery thank you! Prism is currently in your state in storage as we make more money for Europe!

[@Smanch667]

Great. Make sure you swing through New England. Love to buy you dinner and a beer or two.

[@zzzxxzzz4797]

Thanks for sharing 😎

[@prereed]

Most excellent!

[@robertdietz4656]

I am still missing you all.

[@guinneach]

Dude... that part where you were within 3 feet of that booby... you know what was really fascinating? That geological formation behind you - it was this huge sedimentary slab that was thrust up out of the bed. I would love to take a look at that in person because it was so localized, not a large plate but just a relatively small plate. Amazing stuff

[@MrNickstevenson63]

What has been going on guys?? Miss you both

[@2DollarWill]

Can you tell me what the title is for the song that plays at 3:23? Fantastic Video as well!

[@swalemouth]

Sounds to me to be built on 'Getting Away with it' by english group 'James'

[@billhigh3217]

Have you guys gotten married yet? If not, John don’t let Shannon get away she is most definitely a keeper. You two just seem so happy together. I know non of my business but I had to throw it out there. Love you guys and the adventures you share.

[@stevewild1534]

Great video, any chance of bring back your brother

[@SailingVesselPrism]

He shall return!

[@alansailing1387]

Nice video. Do you not have any battons in your sail?

[@SailingVesselPrism]

+Alan B nope, we are battonless

[@alansailing1387]

I'm not sure I understand the logic here, battons are there to stabilize the leech. It gets very expensive very quickly if you flog out the leech of your main sail.

[@Mariposabonita65]

Where are you guys, does anyone know?

[@sailingavocet]

California currently, Prism is in the Carribean

[@kunstmol]

David Attenborough worthy footage!

[@adamttreat123]

You’re back! Where ya been?

[@tentimes4]

Nice job, great video as always... but I did a double take around 5:53... "Omneeous"?? I think you might have been trying to pronounce Ominous... but then again... maybe you have your own language and I'm the one that's mistaken.. either way, I was smiling through the whole video. Thanks

[@SolarBurrito]

Who thumbs down these videos????

[@Standbackforscience]

Man, the music in this episode ...

[@SlowBoatSailing]

Worried that ya’ll gave up on vids. How long is your video lag?

[@bobbooby7588]

Slow Boat Sailing to bad you wouldnt

[@cliffjamerson3107]

WOW

[@michaeldonovan6133]

Just started watching. The background music is too loud when you're talking. Reduce the music volume please. Thanks.

[@pamelaniemesquirola7094]

The Galapagos of Ecuador, not Mexico.

[@kunstmol]

Time to retire the Daisy Dukes hon.

[@alejandrao4159]

It belongs to Ecuador, not to Mexico

[@sailingavocet]

can you provide info on this?

[@kriseriksen4737]

Hi Guys, I love your cinematography, but I sometimes get lost in the voiceovers as incorrect language gets me every time. Just FYI, "circuling" and "omnious" are not words in anyone's language. Still like the videos though.

[@SailingVesselPrism]

+Kris Eriksen hey there! Sorry to lose you on that! I looked up those words just to make sure they are in the English dictionary and they did mean what we thought they meant.they checked out on my end. Maybe our pronunciation was off? Otherwise I hope you enjoyed yourself.

[@kriseriksen4737]

The words I believe you were looking for were “Ominous” and “circling”.
