Venture to Alaska 2012. Part 2

[@africanleopard1920]

THIS IS THE MOST WONDERFUL AND AMAZING TRAVEL DOCUMENTARY I HAVE EVER SEEN!. THANK YOU. - I watch all your Venture Boats trips (Aleutians, Alaska, British Columbia, Europe, Ireland, England, California, Idaho, New York). All videos are properly edited and perfectly presented. All landscapes, scenes, nature, blue sky, grey sky, deep blue sea make me feel so good. I enjoy watching all your videos all time, every weekend from my home in Los Angeles. Even though I am not fortunate like you to circumnavigate the globe and travel on own boat, your sea journey and wonderful voyage videos have brought many delights and good feeling to me. We all ordinary people are grateful to you (Gratitude) for your generous and wonderful presentations. Thank you.

Wonder why people doesn’t support this kind of documentaries and video, narrating and filming so professional and well made loving each minute of the video , unfortunately nowadays people follow and love the junk videos that has no benefit or advantage …

[@grosvenorclub]

Educational , brilliant photography and a lovely calm narrative . Thank you Mr Fleming and crew and KZbin .

[@rickytimms1851]

Thank you so much for sharing these moments with us who will never venture as you !!!

[@chuckmorrow3699]

Thank you for such a gracious gift to so many of us !

[@kristibrz2798]

I love how they don’t shove global warming and the animals are disappearing on this documentary, great show! Love Alaska!

[@EFChapin]

Your love affair with Venture has become we the viewers love affair. Thank you!

[@lfleming7578]

I wonder how much of this ice has permanently receded since this video was done? Stunning filmwork, amazing scenery, I don't know how I ended up on this youtube video but I sure am glad I did.

[@Chris-fo8wp]

I have an almost identical picture from 2008, looks like slightly more ice on this video. We had Glacierrita's!!!

[@vliegendehollander55]

Must be millions of tons...

[@lindamcentaffer5969]

Eeeh, can you say "Weather Cycles?" Just google when the first voyage was done across the Arctic Ocean. It was in the later 19th century. (Sails, then.)

[@lidiadelgado1439]

Same hrre.

[@rwdagostino]

What a well done narration with beauty abound.

[@ka1133]

Stunning ... magnificent ... spectacular ... There are not enough adjectives to describe the beauty and splendour of the sights and scenes you have shared with us. I was sitting here with mouth open in amazement. That you so much for sharing.

[@golly447]

Beautifully shot and narrated Mr. Fleming! Thanks for this, and all of your great videos.

[@m05116565]

Beautiful boat , beautiful scenery and iam sure beautiful people who put all this together and share the experience, Loved Fleming boats since i was a kid :) hopefully I will do the same down here in The Red Sea one day! Thank you all for sharing !

[@santoshkumari5608]

Wow owesome.... Beauty Beauty n Beauty All around .. You peoples are very lucky who live in this beauty...

[@diazdiaz3084]

Now thats what i call a dream life . Just Amazing .... And for the Narrator "you surly deserve a thumbs up from Sir David Attenborough".

[@edkramer5592]

The problem with Attenborough was, he needed a very large crew, and serious editors to get his message across, or so the BBC thought ...

[@deanrwilson]

Spectacular work Tony & Team, fjords and waterways like these are an eternity away from Australia. I love the challenging and isolated environment you shoot. I had the pleasure of seeing Redmond Ross in Australia recently and briefly meeting the owner, my boating will never be the same. Keep up the great work your vision is without peer..

[@jpjbpayne]

Yet another nice ride with Mr. Fleming Thanks for the dream.

[@jensen7194]

UNBELIEVABLE NATURE'S BEAUTY!!!....Great vids!!!....Thanks!....

[@GLICKMIRE]

I watch all your Venture videos. I don't think one could get a tour of Alaska like this for less than a million dollars! Great cinematography and almost like actually being there.

[@terrywadkins2439]

Inspiring! Professional grade documentary. Excellent!

[@matthewjackson9615]

Breathtakingly excellent my good sir !! Indeed, indeed !!

[@huskernebraska7545]

An absolutely incredible journey!

[@wayneperreault9126]

What a trip that must have been. This video reminded me that I have settled in a boring life. I need to hit the road again this summer and case the sun and head parts unknown to me.

[@elizabethwilliamson7373]

what a truly magnificent video. The narrator's voice was so soothing. Thank you for a wonderful view of glacier bay overhead.

[@Opium1960]

Beautiful! Simply beautiful!

Thank You so very much for this Beautiful venture Fleming Yaughts ! I enjoyed so much being with you all I felt as if I was with you on the Venture. Great camera work too this was amazing! Much gratitude for sharing your amazing trip .Linda from Florida 🤗

[@jorca2367]

A very good documental. Part 1 and Part 2 Thank you.

[@lindaphillips4246]

wow I'm so glad to be able to view your adventure. I took a cruise ship to Alaska in 2018 but you were able to view close up scenes that I could not. Staggeringly beautiful country but everywhere we went, townspeople and tour guides warned us over and over that "Alaska kills". When we returned home, a woman I know told me that her 48 year old, wilderness experienced daughter, a resident of Juneau, disappeared on a hike near the town and her body was never found.

[@xgi36]

Awesome adventure ! Thank you for sharing .

[@josephkerley363]

Forget cruise ships, this is the to see Alaska! ... at least, the South East part. Well done, Well filmed.

[@amandareiche9083]

We have been blessed to go via Princess to Hubbard Glacier, Tracy and Endicott Arms all on crystal clear days and returned with our children and grandchildren so that all might see the splendor before it melts--the ships are quite well regulated as to position and noise allowances, but the aspect of this video and the access was truly amazing--thank you Flemings, Godspeed and safe journeys.

[@michaelambrosano938]

Kudos to you all for a job well done,..i've thoroughly enjoyed watching all the video's

[@frederickburns1739]

Thank you for sharing your voyage with us. Wish I could have been a stowaway!

[@valcty1]

Tony; you are the best for sharing all these wonderfull trips, I will own one of your yachts one of these days and experience the same.

[@richardmarsden4860]

Excellent in every way. Thank you.

[@Flynnie38]

Another wonderful video Tony, you really make a person want to go there

[@lynnemarais]

Also love your choice of music in the background!💕

[@elizabethwilliamson7373]

I've watched this 2, or 3 times. Worth the watch. As I have physic add n limitations. Thank you for the upload.

[@susanlourens3949]

Thank you for a very nice video, we've enjoyed it!!!!

[@annettasessions4214]

A wonderful video, calming when my soul needs it, waiting on Tropical Storm Alberto to make landfall in my own little paradise, Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

[@1962sherrynurse]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.

[@linejensen2526]

Thank you for sharing this fantastic video

[@SiriusStarGazer]

awesome and spectacular vid. Thank you

[@tunamaniak]

I can't help myself and pausing here and there just to check listings on Yachtworld. Thank you so much for giving us the Trawler view

[@kimberlyscabiniowa1199]

BOO! Spooky! Beautiful scenery but the waterway looks so dangerous to pass through. Thank you for posting. The serenity your video conveyed has made me sleepy now, so I must take a nap.. Enjoyed your video!

[@cq7415]

Excellent series!

[@rananeel1973]

What sights to behold! Ty

[@amyniemann9564]

So very beautiful, thank you

[@elbiutenguanajuato]

Great video, i do in a Cruise but nothing like a private boat! 👏🏼😊

[@thokongobese4661]

You guys are so brave! Thank God you didn't have a break down! Thank you, it's beautiful but for me, dangerous!

[@njprod]

How to donate to your awesome adventures. I love your vids. Wow. Breathtaking all of them

[@scotyfilms]

As a mariner of 40 years I still think you are crazy to venture into these icy waters. One block of ice snagging with your propellor and your hooped or at least looking at vibrating trip into town ending with a big $$bill. But hey, more power to you.

[@rosebruno217]

Beautiful I want to cruise there again

[@MarcStjames-rq1dm]

Thanks again Mr. Fleming.

[@JohnProthero]

What was your crew complement on this voyage, and how many passengers? You mention your captain, Chris. Family member or hired captain? Fantastic adventure. I'd SO MUCH rather do this than a cruise ship!

[@JohnProthero]

Thank you for responding, Tony. Your videologues are very enjoyable and informative. As much as I'd like to take a cruise to Alaska, I'd much rather be on a Fleming 65 and enjoy the inner waterways as you did. It has inspired me to learn about maritime navigation.

[@abhayaagarwal4179]

I would rate the level of this presentation at A+++++. Should be seen by youngsters the upcoming

[@stephenpomeroy1214]

very well done all round.....thank you

[@skopryr]

You obviously have no idea when you say that the cruise ships don't stay away from the harbor seals they are very careful and heavily regulated to do what they can to stay away from the wildlife and not disturb it and their speeds are very slow they do an excellent job it is much more of a chore to cruise through the fjords in a thousand foot ship and they do it phenomenally.

[@dougtagg9162]

Thank you Mr Fleming.

[@robfraley4210]

Very Interesting and informative !

[@lexy1729]

An incredible adventure.

[@drrbrt]

Glorious!!!

[@abhayaagarwal4179]

Excellent , outstanding

[@jc0730]

Gorgeous!

[@bryanjaeck4828]

I enjoyed the video.

[@carmenvazquez512]

Eaooo so much Beaty thanks

[@patriciarice15]

We took an Alaskan cruise in 2017 and we were able to go to Tracey Arm. It was absolutely AMAZING!!! Hope to go back in 2019. It was breath taking. Well worth the trip.

[@stephenscott963]

Another amazing video! Could you please explain your comment about “ the tidal gate is closing?” I’m the guy headed there next summer and is a little nervous!!! But incredibly excited! Any great knowledge you can give would be much appreciated! Thanks again!

[@FlemingYachts]

There is nothing to be worried about when cruising the Pacific Northwest but you do have to pay attention to the tides. Water flowing through narrow channels can create rapids as the water at each end tries to equalize. When it does so, then you will have what is called "slack" water and this is the time to pass through the channel. Slack only lasts for a relatively short period. I referred to this as the "gate". I have a just completed a video to illustrate this which is due to upload on Nov 25th so look out for it. If you are a subscriber and have clicked the bell, you will be advised re upload - otherwise go to Flemingyachts.com and click on You Tube red arrow at top right of home page.

[@CDNRower99]

Plays a bit like a documentary. thank you.

[@MegaDevar]

It is a documentary......?

[@Kimbeattie]

Thank you for letting me live my dream through your adventures, wonderful film and have subscribed to your channel. I know i probably cannot afford a ship like Venture but i am curious how much it would cost, Over 3 million ?

[@FlemingYachts]

To reproduce a Fleming 65 like Venture with all the electronics and other equipment would be more than 3 million USD. A smaller version eg the Fleming 55 would be closer to 2 million. There are also used boats available which are fine and cost much less. There are also other brands of used boats. For example, 20 year old fiberglass Grand Banks are excellent cruising boats and are very reasonably priced. The important thing to keep in mind is that you should own the boat. The boat should not own you! You can also charter eg, NW Explorations out of Bellingham.

[@tacticalpickle7]

love the video. I do have questions. what is the range of your boat, how many motors, and how much fuel your boat hold on board. looking to get something close to your. thanks in advance.

[@MegaDevar]

You hit the nail on the head Frank. I doubt seriously that all those Global Warming Freaks were paying attention, 40 miles GONE. I think it’s safe to say It’s been around since the last ice age. It is a wonderful film. I was just in Juneau for a week and it’s one of the most beautiful places on earth, thank you for sharing

[@amandareiche9083]

Watching the sun set off the channels in Juneau from the top of the Mt. Roberts Tram is a lifetime experience--thank you native nation for making this possible for my family.

[@richardperkins3460]

Tracy Arm was amazing. Need to go there

[@TheJackMac909]

Okay, I understand, I do have new respect for fiberglass hulls (as long as you're not reckless you'll be okay)

[@TheJackMac909]

Majestic views, oh how I wish I could see them with my own eyes. Is your boat a steel hull?

[@FlemingYachts]

Venture has fiberglass hull but we have had zero damage after two seasons of nudging ice aside

[@matthewmayhem9213]

Can you tell me what the song is at 10:11 ? It sounds Nordic epic.

[@philippechevereau9818]

Which kind of anchoring ground did you encounter? ie did you found enough sandy grounds?

[@geoanth]

Fantastic, this is my second time watching this adventure and had to add my penny's worth. The only criticism I have is that you left on this venture without me, shame on you;)

[@elizabethwilliamson7373]

The glaciers are melting faster than you could drain the bathwater!

[@MatanuskaHIGH]

You didn’t cross the gulf of Alaska? Missing out on kenai fjords and prince William sound and Whittier.

[@FlemingYachts]

Actually, we have crossed the Gulf of Alaska (from Kodiak to Sitka), also the Kenai Fjords plus several trips to Prince William Sound and Whittier. All on video. You need to go to Flemingyachts.com and look at the other videos. Specifically, "Venture to the Aleutians" describing our trip to Dutch Harbor.

[@MatanuskaHIGH]

FlemingYachts actually after posting this I found your prince William sound video and Aleutians video. Thank you! Must be an amazing life to be able to explore like that! I enjoy the narrative also reminds me of David Attenborough. Calm and soothing

[@nwofoe2866]

I just saved thousands of dollars.

[@maxkalada5951]

NO...now u must go

[@satyajitganguly3135]

Me too....

[@billzweig8381]

Do you ever get damage to the bow of the boat from running through the ice?

[@FlemingYachts]

Surprisingly we do not. However, we go very slowly and just nudge the ice aside.

[@jamesbaxter2812]

I am asking with a small yatch. I am looking a fuel. Is there lots of places for this and food

[@arisgod2749]

Man very brave to do this in a fiberglass boat.

[@millerforester3184]

how many guests (or rooms) on this cruise?

[@soloonsound]

The soundtrack is amazingly close to the hit NetFlix series "The Crown'" Is this just a coincidence or is the composer the same? How's THAT for a tough trivia question? Great video as always!

[@FlemingYachts]

I purchase music from one of the companies that sell copyright free music. Maybe they do the same! I have never watched "The Crown".

[@batpoet1]

Which Zodiak is that? Can't seem to find it on Zodiak's website.

[@FlemingYachts]

It was purchased 14 years ago so probably not a current model

[@seanhutchins1]

Is venture a 48' grand banks? Weren't you alarmed running venture through a network of icebergs?

[@FlemingYachts]

Venture is a 65' Fleming. For more info go to Flemingyachts.com. No, we were not alarmed passing through icefloes. We did so slowly and have confidence in our vessel.

[@matthewmayhem9213]

10:11 Can you tell me what song is playing during this part? It sounds like an Epic Nordic song.

[@jfang560]

学习了谢谢🙏

[@carloscasamayor7861]

amazing trip

[@cafmdq]

Fantastico!

[@byronely9783]

what is the background music
