Thank you Brian, Kazza, and Nugget, along with the TTYC, for restoring my faith in humanity. Not much stateside has recently given me reason to smile, but this display of unity, sharing, selflessness, and caring for one another, makes the world a little brighter. Though I've been sailboat-less for a number of years, your videos allow me to feel connected to that incredible sailing community. Be well, be safe, and continue making these fabulous videos!

it's always so nice to see a community of people who are getting along for the sake of getting along and no to keep some arbitrary economy running. And i love meeting and making friends with people like Jerry! Learning new things is almost always on my to-do list and learning from someone like Jerry, who's teaching you as an equal, is in my opinion the best way to learn.

The thing I love about this channel is that it is friends, family, nature, sometimes excitement but tons obesity and water and warm. In my life I am so tired of natural stress, unasked for stress, terrible fears of disease and relentless calls for distance and restrictions. I enjoy watching you guys live, raise a family, and have challenges and strife, but it looks like a much better world than I am in with my kids, family, and friends today. Thank you for sharing something... something that is different, better, cleaner.... I enjoy it. Thank you!

Both moonshining and boat fixing in one video. Sweet! Impressive that people carry vacuum pumps, gauge manifolds and spare refrigerant aboard - wise choice when regarding all the air-con and fridges and freezers aboard modern cruising yachts. Great to have a neighbour such as Jerry to help one out in a pinch, his freezer troubleshooting brought back memories from when I worked with that stuff. Just feeling the temp on the pipes, on the condenser and evaporator can tell a lot when one understand how a refrigeration system work. Looking forward to more videos from the best yacht club in the world!

I'm sure that between navigating up the coast and watching the baby you are both exhausted. Hopefully everything is going smoothly and you are able to catch up on rest. Thank you for sharing these moments. I'm savoring these virtual visits to the clear waters of the Caribbean while it lasts. It must have been bittersweet to have to leave.

Good Vid ! Brian , i Thought You were a Expert on Refrigeration systems thats why i have never said anything over the Many years of Watching. Except once. Ive been doing those adler barbours since 1990. Dana Point , California. A Few tips: i will drop a few tips from time to time. 1) Allways carry a Spare Danfoss control module on Board. They are the Most common items that fail on those units. Very easy for You to change out. 2) When it Gets hot out The Refrigeration problems will show themselves. 3) Brian , an easy way to know if those systems are Full of refrigerant is Put your hand on the suction line going to the compressor ( larger cold line coming from evaporator to compressor ) It should be beer can cold 🥶 within 1-6” from compressor body. Also check evaporator periodically , set unit to run / down in temperature and entire evaporator plate should be frosty if only part of the evaporator is covered by a thin layer of frost You are Low onnRefrigerant. Add small amounts of refrigerant until entire plate has a small layer of frost on it. 4) You MUST be able to see daylight through the Condenser / Radiator thing with a Fan on it. Clean it Regularly. Its what keeps the compressor from seizing up. Blow it backwards & forewards with air from a scuba tank. 5) Wash Condenser with Hot Water & brush & simple green once a Year. Turn unit off of course before doing so. 6) if All Paint is coming off evaporators and bare aluminum is showing systems are due to be replaced. 7) a Whole adler barbour system is Cheap relatively speaking and you can install it Yourself. 8) i Would Recommend adding a Second system to Both Freezers if your going to be in the tropics. Those freezers are Huge for 1 adler barbour to handle by itself in the tropics. 9) i Would Recommend Putting a Verticle straight line evaporator down the center of that freezer for Better Cooling transfer. Glad u Found a Guy with guages and a few cans of 134a or R-12. Oc.

Good tips good look out sir . True !!!!! But you should never have to recharge refrigerant R12 - 134A in the system if you don’t have a leak anywhere even a cap with no oring could cause a leak . And I find it easier to catch the dust from flying all over , is to wet A rag and put it behind the condenser coil opposite side when you’re blowing out the coil and while you’re at it not bad to just clean the fan blades on the condenser fan to ya . Stay safe and stay healthy my friends ❤️🙏🏽❤️ !!!!!!! Kiss / hugs lido nugget she’s like a little mermaid growing up at sea

The key issue for flammable gas on a boat is that if it is heavier than air it will collect in the bilges. (Unlike, say, farts...) Based on a quick search, R-22a is both flammable and heavier than air.

Brian and Karin, As you found out cooling systems take super special tools and knowledge. It is a delicate task even with the right tools and experience as I have found out the hard way. My reason to say hello is about " Nugget " she is very special and soon will be steeling the show. Not only is she adorable but she is very aware of her live abroad surroundings. In the coming months and years we [ your viewers ] will be so privileged to see her develop as she explores her home and oceanic world. I look forward to watching you grow as a family and hope to cross paths at some point in the future. As I mentioned before one of my daughters acquired Covid - 19 at college. The students at Chico State are just NOT stressing over the virus and do not believe it is overly dangerous. So far they have been accurate as I know of no cases that have been serious there. The kids get it, feel lousy for a couple of days, then move on as if nothing had happened. I believe that many more people have already had the virus than have been accounted for by government testing. If this is the case then the virus is not as dangerous as reported as most acquiring it go undetected.

@@TheExpeditionFamily Sorry for late reply, working night shifts currently... a small one is very handy, and can be bought to also provide pressure if you're willing to spend $300+ or a cheap model can be less than $50. It really depends on application. The one shown in video is an industrial HVAC repairman's tool. But in those circumstances, it was priceless to have or their investment in food was going to be spoiled. For HVAC you need enough vacuum to boil off anything in pump, particularly moisture, to at least 500 micron, up to 1000 preferably... But considering multiple uses for vacuum packaging clothes, food, oil changes, fiberglassing or epoxyy repairs....I'd want one if I was going to be far away from repair facilities. The repair fairy saved their food, and saved them a significant bill from a repairman. More than enough to pay for the tools that you can easily learn to use from KZbin !

@@bartpacifico6386 If it's just for making oil changes easy you can also get a manual hand pump (bicycle pump style) with reservoir like : www.amazon.com/Hydro-Turf-Oil-Extractor-6-Liter-OIL01/dp/B000GU0MMU?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_7 which I've been using for years on cars, boats and other motors. They come smaller or larger, depending on your capacity requirements. If you're looking for an HVAC type like Jerry's, this cheapo version would pay for itself in one usage... don't know if it will live forever, but at $88 bucks, who cares !

Recently our clothes dryer went out. I ordered the parts and had it fixed in a few days. Then, about two weeks later the washer stopped working. I ordered the parts and had it fixed quickly. NOTHING beats the look on my girls face when she sees that the man she's invested so much time into can fix most of her problems🤣 Love it. You can tell Brian gets the same admiration.

Yeah, I kept the first fridge we bought in our first year of marriage running by doing the same for 19 years, finally broke down and got a new fridge last year, and still paying it off. A few years ago we were taking a camping trip and stopped at a store 2 hours from home and our SUV'S starter went out. After figuring out the problem, I looked at my wife through the window and told her to hand me a short section of speaker wire, we happened to have lying on the floor, an umbrella, and the tire iron from the tire changing kit. After the really funny looks from everyone in the truck, she handed me the items, within a minute I had the truck running again. Since that day, my entire family and the 2 boys riding with us call me MacGyver because of it, lol.

@@easley421 I will neither confirm, nor deny the make of the vehicle in question, but will give the hint that it was made in MI. The umbrella was used as an extention to tap the starter because I felt the solenoid was sticking, after that I went the, jump the solenoid route with the speaker wire and the plastic end of the umbrella came in handy to keep me from getting zapped as it made connection, did I mention it was dark and my flashlight had just died and my camping flashlight was WAY to buried to try to get at, ya know, right next to my tool box I carry for those exact situations so I don't have to ask the wife for an umbrella, tire iron, and speaker wire, but it all worked out in the end, and the wife calls me Mac on occasion now

Life is change, man. Calling their wedding 'shotgun' is ignorant if you've watched the pas SEVEN years of them together. There are plenty of "party cruiser" channels out there. Maybe you'd prefer them.

@@jjnelsonnc Lol wtf are you even talking about. Ousted? You act like they've been on the boat for 10 years straight (there were many, many 3-6 month diversions). Brady probably has a captains license, which gives him unlimited options of the water. In the worst case he walks away with that and an incredible adventure. What, you think he needs a pension? That being said, can't you understand how a man and his wife would want some quality bonding time with their child? Do you realize Delos is a business, and even if Brady isn't on it, I can almost guarantee he's working on videos or other stuff. Whatever, some people can only find the one cloud on a sunny day. Wait for Delos 2.0 ...
