[@ozziecalienes116]

Oh my God Ed, thank god Lin is ok our family will have her in our prayers

[@stephenscott963]

Did they say why motor disintegrated on the inside?? You are great and appreciate when you learn, we learn!

[@robertshade9876]

Thank God Lyn is doing well. I look forward to meeting her. When the love of your life is suffering, we suffer as well. And good job with the windlass.

[@Myseadreams]

So glad Lyn is on the mend.

[@southofthefork6098]

Grateful for Lyn’s recovery and a working windlass!

[@steveale0711]

I’ve only watched the intro and had to stop and say “boom-chicka- wow-wow”

[@stephenscott963]

Prayers for you all, and I’m still a little worked up over Lynn and her fixing the windless, great stuff!

[@stephenscott963]

This all is called being “BLESSED!!” Praying for a great recovery!

[@doncritzer2798]

Glad yur ok Lynn 👍

[@revolvingdestination2297]

Lmao, great intro, love your sense of humor! Glad Lyn is doing better!

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@robhowen]

I'm pleased to hear that Lyn is doing well. Thanks for the update and congratulations on getting the windless resolved.

[@dabuya]

She definitely was blessed. I’m sure you’ve researched that fact. Thank you for sharing.

[@anthoneyking6572]

OMG your Wife was so Lucky Normally a Burst appendix is not good out come Very Happy she is ok and I Wish her all the best and a Speedy Recovery thanks for the Vlog

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Yes, thanks

[@mvconcorde5243]

Very relieved to hear that Lyn is recovering well. A burst appendix is nothing to fool around with. That's what killed Harry Houdini. Sciatica is also not fun, but it is very easily managed and treated. Give her our best!

[@jcuslidge]

So sorry to hear about Lyn's health issues. But, glad to hear she's on the mend. I sure can relate to what you both went through, from the patient and patient support roles. Modern medicine is a miracle. 😁

[@richardkeen1996]

A very lucky lady - glad that Lyn is okay now!!

[@charlesreece1704]

So glad to hear Lynn is healing up. A burst appendix can kill you if the infection spreads. Wish her well and love to see her back on the videos!

[@larrydicenzo3826]

Very glad to hear Lynn is on the mend. Great video, I have been waiting to find out what the problem was.

[@lutherprince9304]

Wishing Lynn a speedy recovery. Glad you were able to get to the right place for help. A ruptured appendage is no joke. Get well soon!❤️‍🩹

[@karaDee2363]

So happy to hear that Lynn is okay now. I do know a burst appendix is nothing to mess with and usually excruciatingly painful. But I know she's tough.. and having a sciatic nerve act up is also very painful, definitely no fun to have.. good job on replacing the winch motor Ed. And a toast to Lynn to feel better and a complete recovery..🍸🍹🍸

[@patrickloring6914]

Thank God!

[@musictheoryexcel7578]

Prayers For Lynn!! We Love You!

[@KAP-71]

Wow! Glad she is doing well! Best wishes!!

[@larrys4109]

I wish Lynn a speedy recovery and I’m glad to hear that you were back in Fla. when it happened.

[@cwengle5119]

You love your job so much that you have to do it twice!

[@robertmdaniels]

Get well Lynn

[@garyw8481]

REALLY glad you caught Lynn's appendix, they are nothing to sneeze at. Mine burst on the way out. Sick as a dog for 2 weeks, no fun.

[@brunozimmermann7470]

Alles Gute für Lynn - du weisst Unkraut verdierbt nicht - Grüsse aus der Schweiz

[@edwardranno7119]

Owning a boat is always a major learning experience

[@mvintrigue-trawlerdiy1101]

Very glad Lynn is OK! Feel better soon!

[@RF-ci7ng]

Glad Lynn is doing better. “Your health is your wealth” must the truest saying ever.

[@harryrose9144]

Very best wishes to Lynn for a speedy recovery. So happy to hear she is doing well. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both.

[@bettermost]

My appendix burst 20 years ago and I ended up in the ICU for a week. It was the worst possible pain. Glad to see she is on the mend.

[@derricklahaie2357]

Glad you're okay Lynn. I am well acquainted. My appendix burst at 5 yrs old. Now 64 and can still recall it vividly. Not a good day! Take care.

[@mikebarnes7746]

Hugs and prayers for a speedy recovery.

[@michaeltrimper4085]

Glad everyone is on the mend!!

[@Falney]

I wish I could say I never had hospital stays. I was quite a reckless child. I have had many broken bones.

[@emmadsmith]

Prayers for you both!! Glad everybody is ok now. Burst appendix can be deadly….and a bout with SCIATICA hurts like the devil!❤❤❤

[@TerryKeever]

"Pain in the a$$" is a much better name than sciatica. Trust me, been there. One pamphlet I saw advertising a chiropractior compared it to a tootache in the leg. So glad Lyn is ok. A burst appendix can be life threatening. Y'all going to the urgent care and then to get the scan and everything working out in the end is a great outcome except for the pain in the toucas. Fair winds and smooth seas.

[@alanapgar7402]

Thank God, Lynn is ok. That is not something to mess around with.

[@DennisWintjes2]

Glad all worked out. Thanks for sharing. Like 588

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Us too!

[@jetlag4754]

I hope she has a speedy recovery! Back pain is miserable. I have had three spinal fusions myself but feel great now.

[@ericmitchell5350]

Happy days that Lyn is Good to Go! :)

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Yes it was!

[@bradwhite6254]

So glad to hear Lynn is doing well!

[@michiganengineer8621]

I think we all know Lynn's major PITA 🤣 Glad to hear she's doing well! For a change it wasn't a hugely expensive repair to the boat, although between Lynn's burst appendix and the sciatica flare up, having to replace the entire windlass assembly probably would have been cheaper!

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Got that right! The deductible for emergency room visits alone is triple the windlass repair cost!

[@MarketingStrategies28]

Hospital. Mygod i thought misshap with the windlass. Glade you explained it. She did look excited

[@kerryhoover6600]

Hey SO GLAD YUN'S ARE OK ( Lynn ) I have watch yun's for a while now and enjoy every video. Even before the new equipment. Lynn know you don't know me personally nor I either one of yun's, HOWEVER so glad to see that good people get a brake !!! Speedy recovery and I am pretty ( 100 percent) sure Ed will take good care of you during this time period. Safe travels! Roger Out !!

[@rikspector]

Oh I am so sorry that happened, but thank God, it didn't spread. Lyn, my wife Suzan had to have part of her small intestine removed because of Crones disease. They did it with robotic arthroscopic surgery. her recovery went very well as I hope your does Medicine has come a long way in the last few years. I wish you both well, resting in the Bahamas will be the greatest cure. Cheers, 'Rik Spector From now on your Captain, Capstan:)

[@stephengarcille4844]

Great to hear Lyn is doing well. I always wonder why we even have an appendix....

[@Mandurath]

Very lucky. I was in the hospital for two weeks when mine burst due to the infection. Hopefully she has a speedy and painless recovery.

[@williamwhaley7842]

Very glad she is doing well!

[@captainkrunch6372]

I would recommend a small box to put parts and tools in so you don't have to call a diver.

[@TRANSFORMER2508]

Get well Lynn 🙏

[@anthonyferrara2222]

Glad Lyn is doing well.

[@mvlivinthedream9601]

Glad she’s ok!

[@andrewbufalo611]

I had that very same problem in Grenada. Luckily we had a friend aboard - someone I served with in the Marine Corps - who was able to pull up 200 feet of chain and a 65 pound Bruce anchor. Have you and Lyn ever thought about venturing beyond the Bahamas and into the Caribbean - the D.R., USVI, Windwards and Leewards? We will be headed back there next year. Can't wait!

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Yes, we do think about going to the USVIs, etc. We almost did a couple years ago but could not locate a slip to keep us once we got there.

[@andrewbufalo611]

@tryingnottosink9107 look into Crown Bay Marina in St. Thomas (for one example). It's our kind of place. There is a nice bar, and a ferry to take you over to Dingy's Beach Bar on Water Island. On the way there we stop at Ocean World and Samana in the DR and San Juan in PR.

[@storytimewithunclekumaran5004]

Glad Lyn is ok.... scary..

[@jeffreyyoung8727]

Go Lynn you are the star!

[@ryanp135]

Glad she's OK.. BIGGG suggestion.... Lay off the booze for 6 months you'll be amazed how much your body and mental health improves, your skin will recover and not look like leather left in the sun in a junk yard.

[@thelivingbranch]

capt flint on deck xxx - cheers - love the skit laughing still

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Glad you like it!

[@eviljedi1284]

Get well soon Lynn

[@nancycurtis3964]

A burst appendix is always fatal if its not surgically addressed. Good call to go to the ER. Sciatica can be treated with nerve blocks. (speaking from experience!)

[@emmadsmith]

@@nancycurtis3964 well….it wasn’t fatal this time!!!

[@Djdj-kd8ue]

Lynn you are a Lucky Lady,my cousin just about checked out of this world because of the same thing! Hopefully you are on the road to a very speedy recovery! (P.S. I just knew after you do n' that Windless you were prObly preGnant)

[@topshelf321]

Glad to hear she is doing good. If you would not have been back it may have been a whole different story. Mainly because she probably would have laid on the boat for a day or two more in pain before trying to get something done. My friend had that happen, he waited 2 days in pain after a doctor told him it was just "gas". When he couldn't bare it any longer, he finally went to the hospital. He died withing 24hrs after the surgery. They said his body was septic from all the poison. Who knew you would be thankful for a broken windless? Funny how things that you think are bad turn out to be a blessing.

[@markfisher8206]

Take care you are loved by many

[@randyjude3046]

I've also experienced a burst appendix!! Blessings to you Lynn!!!! Glad all is well!..... Gonna have to patrion your sorry asses cause..... Need ta know! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@tryingnottosink9107]

You are very welcome!

[@richardknott2021]

You can replace motors,engines anything..can’t replace eyes..wear safety glasses

[@deniermurch8693]

Boy Lynn was lucky, a burst appendix is and can be very nasty. I am sure we all wish her well, even though she was naughty playing with the anchor winch. Dirty Girl. (satire)

[@leepeacock3099]

HILARIOUS intro With a very "happy ending"? Glad everyone is doing well. Jalapeño poppers looked amazing. Get back on the boat.

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Glad you liked the intro! The poppers were amazing, but they fooled us into thinking she had a belly ache!

[@johnmarschalk1977]

Not done watching, but if I don't ask now I'll forget. Did you have that tool to take nut off windlass on board and is it a specialty tool? Hope Lyn is OK. Mainly a loop video follower, but yours are so interesting can't pass up

[@tryingnottosink9107]

The tool came with the boat. I have seen Hatteras yachts with different versions of the same tool. Really just a big socket with a bar across it.

[@jmsask]

🍻

[@captainkrunch6372]

Lol,😂😂, nice intro.

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Cheers!

[@kathyline11]

That's a hell of an into!!😀Glad Lynn is okay!

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Glad you liked it!

[@storytimewithunclekumaran5004]

the brushes are shot in that motor ..

[@tryingnottosink9107]

There we burned out wires in there as well.

[@festerofest4374]

OMG that opening was hilarious. I know people say "LOL" all the time, but I was! And then, seeing the image of Lyn in the hospital...two minutes in and this episode is a roller coaster of emotions! So glad to hear the great news that Lyn is recovering well. I guess in this instance you can be excused for no Roger-Out's in this episode!

[@tryingnottosink9107]

Thanks. Glad you liked the intro. Lyn is doing very well. Back to normal! I am just glad it wasn't Lyn's "final" roger out!

[@PWCPhoto]

Now that's funny! Loved the intro!!!!

[@jr.leininger4109]

Hey great to hear that Lynn is doing good. Do you have an email address to contact you for those of us not on Facebook or Instagram? I'd like to send you a photo of your boat sticker I came across at Bimini Seafood last week.
