Wow love the picaresque video and great editing and fantastic music choice, NICE. Who knew just watching a wave with the right music could be so pleasing.

For the frame to hold the gas gauges may I suggest a 3D printer. I have been watching Sam Holmes sailing repair a boat and using one often to make odd parts instead of buying them. They seem amazing. Hope you had fun down there.

[@wesleyadams5433]

Looks like a great trip. What was the purpose of the rope attached to the anchor chain? I am not familiar with the requirements of operating a large vessel.

[@tryingnottosink9107]

It hooks to the chain and is then tied off to the cleats. It enables you to take the stress off the windlass and transfer it to the cleats, which are stronger.

[@wesleyadams5433]

@@tryingnottosink9107 That makes sense. Thanks for the response. Trying to learn all these tricks and techniques, maybe I can take a trip like that in my own boat someday.

Be interesting if you came across Mermaid Monster or Encore (Adventures of a Lifetime) when you're in the Bahamas. Be a nice collab I think, a couple of different viewpoints on a cruising lifestyle!

I believe we just missed Mermaid Monster in the Exumas by a couple of days. They posted this week a video this week where they anchored right where we did. Our videos are a month behind.

Not unless your charge people money to come on board.

I enjoy your channel. However, what is it with KZbinrs that they all seem to feel the need to stick stickers everywhere they go. Many of the channels I follow do this. Isn't it a form of vandalism?

[@tryingnottosink9107]

No. Almost all marinas have areas where boaters put stickers. We do not put them in places they do not belong.
