The Totally Not Naked Sailing Episode - Free Range Sailing Ep 33

[@chuckcpc8774]

Other than local lakes and the Chattahoochee River, my wife and I are land locked in west Georgia, USA, but we live vicariously through you two. Your trips, insights and tutelage are truly appreciated. I'm a knot guy and an avid cook. My wife has always been adventurous out doors, so your life style is a hit for us to admire. Hugely entertaining as we work through each of your new offerings, mostly on our weekends and even re-run some of our fav's. I am a practical, safe and environmentally conscious boater. The Eagle Scout still in me. You folks seem to be environmentally conscious as well. How do you deal with waste? We all generate bodily waste coupled with the necessary toilet paper and hygiene products as well as kitchen waste paper, cans and foil. Grease, oil and scraps normally discarded to a sink disposal or land fill when land locked. Lubricants, oily rags, contaminated fuel and oils that are no longer serviceable. Colds, flu, other routine illnesses in life. Medicines? You two are at sea for weeks. How do you prepare and cope? On another thought, how do you deal with conflicts between the two of you when you are at sea? My wife and I have been together for over 45 years, but there are still challenging days from time to time. I can retreat to my man cave and her to her she shed until whatever bad weather passes and we forget why we were annoyed with one another and remember why we love one another. Perfect bliss at sea or are there times you want to ring a neck? You two are amazing. Best wishes and safe sailing, Chuck and Dee

Woo, what a comment. Well, sure we have rough patches but our lives depend upon each other and that makes for a bond stronger than problems our egos might throw up. Besides, Pascale is very patient with me! All waste oil, rags etc is stowed on board for shoreside disposal. Each oil change being 2l means waste storage is pretty easy even for long periods. Food waste can be thrown overboard because it's mostly fish scraps. Not much waste from sprouts, cooked grains and legumes etc. whole foods don't have much packaging and we transfer what we can into reusable containers before leaving. Bulk stores come in good rigid containers. We can discharge poo overboard once it's ground up by our marine toilet as long as we are more than certain distances from different marine installations (eg. aquaculture facilities). Further south, more regulation will come into effect and we will build a holding tank. We don't use foil or glad wrap. Our soaps are low phosphate or natural ingredients. Every action has an impact and everything on earth lives at the expense of something else. Even herbivores kill plants after all but we try minimise ours and we think our simple life leaves plenty of resources for others.

[@chuckcpc8774]

Free Range Sailing Many thanks for your reply!!

[@mikepeck9321]

I have to say that I have found these videos some of the most interesting I find. Troy, you are truly one of 'The most interesting men of the world'. Fit, rugged, experienced in life and of course, you got the girl. Pascal, what can I say, intelligent, easy on the eyes and a true delight in everything you do. Keep that wonderful laugh and that beautiful smile and both of you will make the rest of us have better outlook on life.

[@daveg6492]

Mike Peck Very well said Mike. This is one of my favorite channels out of many.

[@CaptJohnsBar]

Your channel is about to explode, i see you being mentioned in the comments on the big sailing channels....So glad to see it happening, you two deserve it, you have great content!

[@hibbiteejibbitee]

quickly becoming one of the better sailing channels. love the sustenance side of it. a bare ankle mixed in every once in awhile is a nice reminder of what being free is all about.

[@pmbnet]

Go on, bare an ankle or two. I dare you.

[@symphonyfarm2009]

LOVE looking at the charts at the beginning!!! As always ! the fishing ....so effortless! As my son said "dad you know what the good thing about summer is, you can take a shower in the rain!!!"

[@scottchurch8640]

Again, great short map lead in. You are refining an already great video production process. Very entertaining and informative. Please take care of yourselves, you have a lot of people that care about you...that you’ve never met but we have the pleasure of meeting you every week!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

You're going to get us all choked up over here Scott.

[@KevinSpecialK]

Awesome, thank you! I live in Minnesota and you guys give me the opportunity to see a life away from this cold place. Rock on!

[@valderja]

I absolutely love your channel guys. I've been wading through your videos. Love the adventure, excitement, fishing, gathering. What a lovely life.

[@HopeOfJoe]

Absolutely fabulous vlog !! Troy, you do not look that old, yet you have an amazing amount of knowledge !! Bravo!! Pascale could not be a better first mate. Love the freshness and risquénss of your vlog adventure. Again, absolutely fabulous. 😊👍👌👊⛵️⚓️✨

[@kd7jvp]

Our solution to fly and most other insects is a product called "Bug-a-Salt" which quickly dispatches the critter without a splattered mess. The flies have no chance. There are plenty of videos on KZbin about this product. We love your channel as it is our most favorite channel on KZbin. Thank you both for taking the time from your travels to share your adventure with us.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Great video! I always look forward to watching your videos. You two never disappoint and I always learn something new!

[@lkelly0284]

I am retired but still like to work on refrigeration, busted my ass and wore out came home took a hot sea salt bath and just unround watching your very stress free sailing, love it!

[@thebillbaker4793]

Thanks for living a life that I enjoy. You two are just living life to the fullest. Love it and y’all.

[@resarfw]

I get a real sense of intimacy watching your videos. It's as if I'm a salling/fishing/cooking &etc noobie aboard Mirrool sharing a thought and a cuppa on a seat in the cockpit or down below with you guys, which is about as close as I can get to actually being out on the water these days. Thanks so much for these wonderful respites from the grind!!!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks for telling us we're achieving what we set out to do Warren.

[@jensen7194]

EXCELLENT!...Keep the SPIRIT going!!...Thanks for sharing with the "World"!!!....You Guys are unique and genuine!!!!

[@Mminnehoma]

Just discovered your adventures, always enjoyed listening to Aussies, but this is the first time in my life Ive enjoyed a lawyer. From landlocked Oklahoma, thank you for letting the rest of us enjoy it too.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Haha, welcome to the crew

[@andrewbough7926]

Great Integrity-saving episode young man!You two are the best channel out there!!

[@209turtleboy]

Recently found you kids and you are becoming one of my favorite channels.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Great to have you on board

[@rj7411]

And totally not a boring episode. Always some place new, interesting and educational with Troy and Pascale aboard. Your camera work, editing, narration, music, just wonderful folks. Always look forward to this unique channel on KZbin.

[@bobarnall3913]

You both make the best videos, and couple on You Tube that I have seen. The way you tie the music into the videos is unbelievable. Troy, I do hope you slap yourself first thing every morning to be so lucky to have Pascal with you. Quite the number of hits on the other video with the word naked in it. Thanks

[@rogermace4516]

Great sailing moments, heeling over and watching the cook in the galley from the cockpit... Love It

[@chuckchristy4861]

You two are living the dream. Much love.

[@AlaskaNavigator]

I really love when you guys show your recipes and what your eating cuz I live in Alaska and its SO different then what I know of.......please share more of this kind of videos :)

[@BillionPlusOne]

You're my fave sailing channel. I love your fishing and bushcraft knowledge. I didn't know about the embryonic coconut tree!

[@ziggzaggzip8241]

Red mornings, sailors take warning. Red nights, sailors delight. Thank you, for taking us with you on your journey. 👍🏽 Fair winds and following seas.

[@bradlarden]

Thanks for this episode. As always, enjoying your content with the no BS style and a good sense of humour.

[@williamlilliott2433]

I could almost feel the chill of that rain water shower Pascale gave herself. Why aren't there more women in the world like her? She is a very capable sailor and yet never loses her femininity. I'm not the only guy out here who is entranced by her. Must be a bit of a strain being so close quarters for so long. You both seem to handle it very well. Love your videos. Can't believe how good the editing is.

[@rondejoux8006]

What can i say, very enjoyable.Thanks and take care. What a awesome couple you are.

[@benc65753]

Just a suggestion for the fly problem that also provides entertainment. At least for us hillbillys here in the states. Buy one of those electronic bug zappers that is shaped like a tennis racket. We even have competitions to see who can get the most flies in one swipe. Great video - as always. Really liked your choice of music to kick the video off. You two rock!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Not many shops here. Those are fun though.

[@JaymeVillela]

Another day on the office! Happyness are on simple things of life. Thanks for sharing!

[@richardwinn8221]

Nobody "teaches" like you guys. Thanks for another great video on the real life aboard. We are moving aboard our boat at the end of the month. Just sold the house! Heading out soon.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@richardwinn8221]

Free Range Sailing If it wasn't for all of this purging of accumulated stuff over the years, we might have time to be excited about being back aboard for good. Soon soon.

[@robertorzech2466]

Ha Ha We once got inundated with a thousand flies sailing down wind one nice day and it took a month to get rid of them. I now carry one of those 2$ electric fly swatters that look similar to a badminton racket ! It's the most wonderful invention. Works great on wasps and hornets and spiders too. Great video. Fantastic fish again. Love it ! Cheers.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Before we left Fremantle our friend showed me one. They're pretty addictive! The flies were only a problem for 5-6 weeks, all gone now.

[@hebierob]

Love your episodes! Thank you so much! Texas doesn’t have as much coast as Australia....

[@FreeRangeLiving]

You're very welcome. Our two countries have a fairly similar land mass but as an island our coastline covers more miles so being an Aussie Yachty has plenty of scope for adventure.

[@TheBoabby50]

Another wonderful video. Love your bathroom, and so easy to clean the bath in the rain

[@tedjernigan8029]

I like your videos so much I have watched many of them several times. I have watched you smoking fish and pork and want to confirm that you just put salt & sugar on the meat before it is smoked. I have cold smoked fish multiple times when I lived in Puerto Rico. We built a smoker about the size of a medium sized refrigerator. We even used racks from an old refrigerator to put our fish on. We built a fire pit on the beach and then set the box over it after the fire was reduced to coals. We smoked barracuda, eel, and other fish. We left the smoker heating for at least 12 hours. It wasn't very hot, but was very smoky. We never put rubs or marinades on our seafood we were smoking. I have a couple of really good smokers now and plan on using your technique soon.

[@lkm5462]

Your coconut part made me realize how to make a portable husker. In most areas they use a fixed and secured spike and stab the coco and peel the husk. Portable shore version would be a 19 cm thick spike on one end and a pointed threaded end on the other. Welded handles and thread it into a fallen tree and off comes the husk. Could get a stock up in short order. Love your vids and you catch more fish than any other vid I watch. Cheers

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Africans drive a pick in the ground, skin the nuts and go on their way. Pretty effective.

[@aaronzagha1608]

Great music on this one! Craving a sprouted coconut now. Thanks.

[@skookumjack]

Outstanding T&P! Brilliant content, so very well presented. The hours/days you guys spend in post production to upload these vblogs must be a labour of love!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

It takes a while!

[@davcbow]

Once again you both rock... I had to watch it again I liked it so much..

[@tlowe2502]

Thanks guys, great job,on everything. From another fisherman here in Florida,how you say GOOD ON YA, haha. That says it all .Smooth sailing ⛵🎣👍💕🐾

[@alvessail4718]

Hi. Great to see that you guys having lots of fun. As usual great video. Fair winds.

[@bobbeeler5818]

Just found your channel second episode and subscribed! Best word I come up with to describe is capable. Your both excellent teachers. Looking forward to watching all your episodes and learning all you have to share, which obviously is much. All the best from cali. Ciao for now, got to go do the yard work! I've got a 26' balboa slipped, with which I'm learning on lake Millerton hoping in a year or two to be capable enough myself to begin some coastal trips and finally with a bit larger boat into open waters. I'm sure you two will allow this to happen sooner and safer thanx, ROB

[@klouism1]

Your fishing gives you lots of meals. Good for you, way to go. Keep having fun.

[@edrosenberger6947]

Well....sprouted coconuts are another new thing for me. The bad thing about this channel for me is the realization of just how little I know about things outside of the USA, and sometimes outside my state of Ohio. But I'm watching and learning!!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

It's the wise man who learns how little he knows Ed. we learn something new every day. Sometimes the easy way and sometimes not so there's always something to share. Take care my friend.

[@wildtimbrown]

A nice sweet video, thanks! The coconuts took me back to m'childhood. I grew up in Miami and there was a blight in the 60s that took out most of the mature Coconut Palms. . My father found some smaller trees ("Malay" perhaps) and we had plenty of nuts. I wish I knew the spouting trick back then :-) Keep having fun :-)

[@boikxt600e9]

Thanks for another awesome video you two. Don’t change, and stay safe.😎👍

[@gacastro]

Hello from Massachusetts! Thoroughly enjoying your videos. You two are amazing - such knowledge and great spirits! I discovered you from a passing recommendation by a sailer with a KZbin channel called Sailing Inconceivable.

[@chipw4622]

Another great episode by two terrific people! Thank you!

[@jeffkeating8994]

Troy and Pascal just remind us to like your vids I often forget

[@buynsell365]

Great video. another fun adventure. Your music selections is always great also.

[@DocLois2010]

Wonderful session again, guys!Looking forward to next week! :)

[@trumpetmano]

Trevally are the most fun to catch anywhere. That was a beaut!

[@CoastalBoySailingAdventures]

Another great video and very informative episode as always from you two. Keep up the great work mates!

[@ravenfeather7087]

Just happened to stumble upon your videos during one of the longest snowiest springs in the history of man (in the Great Lakes of the US). What a treat and relief your videos were. I've watched only a few and they're very nicely done. And your music selection fits perfectly with my tastes I really like your ethical approach to the environment and your understanding and appreciation of our fisheries. And your cooking and technical commentary is excellent. I captained a small survey vessel, definitely not a sailor, it is it obvious you'd both be great to have on board. I wouldn't want to change anything you do. But, just as a matter of personal preference, I hope you do not resort to flying a drone. I do a lot of recreating on public land and my opinion is that they belong on or above private property only. I cannot think of anything more aesthetically abhorrent than quietly enjoying a beautiful sunset or watching wildlife and having a drone fly over. I think they don't belong on public land or in public air space except under very specific circumstances. I watched your life stream last night. Very nicely done. Thanks for saving my sanity during one of the most horrible Great Lakes springs in the history of man.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

We're happy to bring a little sunshine to you in the Great Lakes.

[@uv873]

Thanks for another wonderful video. You guys are fun and informative to watch. Great stuff.

[@wilwebster2198]

Wow! Great Flik! Editing is Fantastic! Great Music too.

[@bluedog1052]

Another great episode guys, huge thumbs up!!!

[@miltas8837]

Golden trevally looks amazing. Show us some Kentucky style. Another great video!

[@ianinvancouverbc]

Wow you guys totally blew the roof off your views last episode I guess adding "nude" or even "not nude" in the title helped lol. Ive seen a few other Aussie sailing vloggers and its a wonder they have not been reported missing yet. You guys are an amazing team totally complimentary set of skills between you Thanks for the great experience of feeling we are out there with you

[@larrysmiths1]

A latecomer to your channel! Love it. Serious how to shit and training, for all aspects of travel

[@extremelydave]

I follow very few channels as everyone is a copycat to what seems popular being put out by everyone else.... you guys are NOT the same old thing. You show real personality and show us what it's REALLY like to sail each day, small and big with just the two of you. Do you have any long range sailing plans? If so, when & where do you start? And where did you find the last song on your video!!?? I am assuming it was Thi by Twelve, but I could not find it anywhere..... It's a great song to just while away some time doing whatever.... sailing, hiking.......... nice. Wishing you good seas and the wind at your back!!!!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Hi Dave - Thank you for the warm message! The last track is Up in Arms by Gymnast. You can listen to the track for free in the link in the description of the video - we bought a licence for it from Lickd because we liked it so much! Long range sailing plans is to complete Australia over the next year or so and then, depending on how much support we can get for our channel on Paypal and Patreon, we plan to switch up to a blue water cruiser and head to New Zealand, Pacific, Japan, BC and Alaska (although we are not sure in which order yet!) P & T

[@SailingInconceivable]

Nice trick with the improvised lightning rig. Hope you don't weld your lifeline to the shrouds. I see what you meant when you mentioned the clearer waters east.. Beautiful blue, the waters around there. ~Hans

[@FreeRangeLiving]

As long as we don't get turned to smoke and most of the electrical system comes through.

[@sailingsomewhere7280]

Gorgeous closing images. Thanks!!

[@Schona110]

Love your vids guys....learning from watching without even knowing it. 😃

[@richardshippful]

Excellent and informative as always

[@perigrine46]

My wife and I lived on Entrance Island (Zuna) for 2 years, we hope you enjoyed the experience as we did. Great episode, keep em coming, good on you two.

[@waynedoeblin6801]

Adventure ion n the seas👍 Some terrific fishing😊 Those flues would be horrific,I have the same problem when I come away from the meat works with a van full of them,takes me days to clear them out😂😂 All the best😊

[@rs889]

I'm glad I came across your channel I enjoy listening to you. You know a thing or three bloke.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

[@akfirefighter1975]

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Sounds like a great idea. I can't wait to dine on fresh Salmon!

[@maxingham9139]

Well done! and inspiring Indie music!

[@666madmal]

[@jamesnelson4452]

Great content Troy and Pascale, absolutely beautiful.

[@onthebeaches]

I respectfully disagree lol MMMMMMMMMMM cute as they come

[@majesticmark6054]

Always an entertaining episode. Thanks again for sharing.

[@BillB23]

As usual, great job. Keep 'em coming.

[@tremainedoering3518]

Another cracking episode!

[@Rittlesleo]

We picked up a boat load of biting black flies heading out of Cape May. Swatting for hours up the Jersey shore. At least to had a nice mackerel in the end!

[@steviefordranger198]

I reckon nudity on Booby Is should be mandated! 😂 Beautiful episode, great music and fab fishing. I haven’t seen any sailing vids in this neck of the woods so it’s very exciting, can’t wait for the next adventure. Well done Pascale and Troy.

[@billroberts3864]

Great looking fish you caught, informative comments about coconuts, good explanation about landing a fish when you are solo. You two are a joy to watch because of your wonderful personalities and you both love to share information making us feel as if we are sailing with you. Wonderful editing and very nice relaxing music in just the right places. Which one of you picks the music?

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Pascale is your DJ.

[@Jfwr2010]

Another great episode! Your vids are always smart and entertaining....

[@jondupont8516]

You 2 are awesome!!I love your lifestyle.

[@hthring]

come on troy, im sure you could have made a fly trap with stuff on the boat ! :) very nice music, great ep.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

We did in the end. A PET bottle funnel trap with a chunk of Queenfish. Smelly but effective

[@meohmy7086]

Yet another great video. Thanks

[@Mike-ef7xe]

Great job... thank you so much

[@MiQBohlin]

Good way of telling how you handle to bring in fish whilst shorthanded!

[@shawnsabre1012]

Yep. Must agree with Mike Peck. Keep up the great work guys! 🖖 Dark Munkley

[@TheRealSasquatch]

My mouth waters with every fish you catch. Sooooo jealous :-)

[@user-earthandfire]
