Venture to Alaska 2012 Part 3

During the summer of 2012, we tookFleming 65 motoryacht,Venture, to Alaska and back. This video documents the return journey from Glacier Bay to Vancouver Island.

[@roberthanan487]

I retired after 50 shitty years and will never be able to see this beauty. Thank you for taking me there.

[@CALTECH007]

These Fleming videos are just fantastic and I watch them many times over and over. They give me peace during these difficult times. Thank you.

[@conradrowe3655]

I too, feel the same way. So enjoyable to watch. I don't even have TV anymore. Got tried of all the commercials. I wish there were more of the type of films. Great job Tony!

[@cangumbarafol31]

The narrator is awesome. I hope to meet you someday...Your calmness in talking is making me more exciting and eager to watch more videos of yours...I hope to meet you..

[@PhilipUpNorth]

Tony: Never tire of watching your beautiful videos, especially of Canada and Alaska. Magnificent scenery. Magnificent yacht! :)

[@markpatterson5250]

Very well done videos. I first came to Alaska in 1966 and moved to Juneau in 1994. I worked on the Alaska State ferry boats and ran from Bellingham, WA to Skagway for 12 years. It never got old. As pretty as these videos are, they do not capture the majestic grandeur of the sights, smells, or feelings of personal insignificance one unbelievingly experiences when viewing these sights first hand.

[@cds957]

Wonderful views Tony and crew, I always enjoy these, thanks.

[@ericwalsh9353]

My complients to you and your crew ...great video and deserve a prize or award...

[@geoanth]

Breath taking scenery, love it.

[@spwb2k]

what a great series. i made a special folder just for this. It has been my dream vacation ever since i took an inside passage cruise in 2009, to go back to these water but in a small ship, at a my own pace.

[@jjelpesocondor6591]

I couldn't stop watching this video after I have started...! an amazing attraction dragged me till to the end...!! the same about part 1 and 2...

[@Aaronmuskoka]

wOw that was fun! i couldn't stop until the end. If we were thinking of going I think this made it a yes for everyone. Remarkable. thanks so much

[@xgi36]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful journey !

[@stuart3488]

Forgetting all the green issues for a moment, that was an exceptionally well done video on the inside passage. I was hooked from the beginning and can't wait to bring up Parts 1 and 2 to watch. Tony, thanks for the effort.

[@zetacon4]

Professional Video. Better than most I have seen for travelogues. Your voice is excellent and the video technique is flawless. You can get work like this anytime, anywhere.

[@tommyh6618]

Just came across this set of videos. Glad I did. Watching these videos is what I call relaxing. Thank you for your effort and for making these videos.

Harshdeep S Jawanda ilove you

[@geeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz]

These vids seem strangely relaxing and you don't even have the hassle of getting out of your chair to go. Will watch more of. No chance to go in any case but at least this way I sort of can. Oh and lovely boat.

[@spiritcallsus]

A great set of videos and with wonderfully relaxing music also. Thanks!

[@VedicLegacy]

Well done, nicely shot and edited. Lived in Juneau in the 70's and worked on the Alaska Marine Highway. Your story brought back memories. :) Thanks.

[@wolf3589]

great video, thanks!

[@mbm_23sep]

great videos , thanks for sharing them . i enjoyed them aloooot

[@jbss7382]

Sir, thank you so much for such truly wonderfully beautiful footage. I have been to Canada, to Goose Bay in the province of Labrador. Not dissimilar in its beauty, you have stirred so many fond memories and my love of the sea. Even though I work here in the UK in a land based job. I so wish i had the opportunity to own my own batch as beautiful as yours and to explore aw well. Sir Thank you again, Jonathan seth-Smith

[@princeshan0000]

Marvelous, excellent, good heavens.... May God bless you

[@thezackseven]

The quality of your videos is as great as the shown scenery.

[@rickytimms1851]

The ferry speed is CRAZY !!! 36 Knots ...WOW !!!

[@linejensen2526]

[@SparksMagoo]

[@ohUredneck]

Thanks for the ride-along!

[@diosdadacenidoza823]

awesome video,thanks a lot😍 i haven't been there and i feel like traveling with you guys😍😀

[@dond5665]

total perfection awestruct video.

[@TheMerriell]

The video was shot well although, I would have liked to see more of the Ventures working parts and how they handled the seas! I was really looking forward to hearing how quiet she ran under power while in the wheelhouse!

[@cordelmar]

Ive been in Nanaimo went throu Juan de Fuca its a beautifull place. Sir you have made a very good video of this Adventure, well done.

[@dannettepeters1507]

Got sweaty palms on the helicopter ride!

[@nisha8691]

thanks for this video,,,,,,i lve this,,

[@Semitry4u]

Most beautiful land and video, thanks so much for taking the time to do this. The whole thing is absolutely fantastic, other than seeing how the humans disregard the trees they did not want. A major hazard for the waterways. Shouldn't they be made to clean it up the unwanted trees? Amazing and thanks so much for sharing. I look forward to seeing more on your awesome boats. The Venture and the smaller one, great way to travel.

[@BosleyBeats]

You are so damn awesome. You rock!!!

[@Nulife23]

What a wonderful.journey!

[@michaelambrosano938]

wonderful,..thank you

[@marlirank8478]

Thank you beatiful . Um dia ainda vou conheçer esse paraíso.

[@lavondacarter7228]

This would be a dream trip !

[@mubirusteven5030]

So amazing

[@cq7415]

Excellent series! I saw all three and wonderful! You are so good with the camera, slow pans. Excellent editing. These are the best I have seen on this area. The icebergs and floating logs are scary. Nice to see the fjords you went to. I have not seen any other of your videos yet so curious as to where your home base for the yacht is when you spent so much time in the NW? Thanks for sharing these.

[@9551V]

Nice presentation.

[@matthewmayhem9213]

Song at the beginning? Can't put my finger on it. But it sounds like an Epic Nordic song.

[@sailingnordicsun7199]

How did you create your route map at 1:10 minutes into this video. I am assuming this is done using Google Map Pro. What I'm interested in is the steps to automatically have the a line draw on the map from your starting port to your ending point.

[@abdullahwalli6723]

Appreciated

[@ricklyons4264]

We want to see northern lights in Alaska going soon

[@deborahxavier4637]

Csnt these logs be used to build?

[@Bullerias]

Where's part 2?

[@edwarddorsheimer2347]

I came across your videos the other day. They are fabulous. What cameras do you use? Do you use some kind of stabilizer with the cameras? Keep up the good work. Excellent!

[@FlemingYachts]

I now use a Panasonic GH5 with internal stabilization. Watch my video "How I make my videos"

[@ronhargis9562]

Sure would like to know what video/camera system you are using.

[@FlemingYachts]

Although made five years ago my video "How I make my videos" kzbin.info/www/bejne/moaVg4uClLGZp6M on the flemingyachts You Tube channel is still relevant. But last year I discovered the amazing capabilities of the iPhone so I now also use that.

[@donnlass]

You may not have noticed but part 2 And 3 of this are identical.

[@Filmgen1]

You are quite correct. I made this video first because it contained the most dramatic footage. I then went on to create parts 1 and 3 and label them as such. I tried to re-label the one you mention but You Tube had changed their format and I could not figure out how to edit the accompanying data and, unlike Vimeo, You Tube do not respond to enquiries for help. If you like my videos also visit vimeo.com/channels/298724

[@beverley8987]

thankyou lets just go over this again just to make sure I did not miss anything LOL now I Im rich Im next thankyou

[@valcty1]

Tony, where is Venture today?

[@Filmgen1]

Now at Ucluelet on West Coast of Vancouver Island heading north.

[@WestCoastWheelman]

I don't understand why people are so obsessed with landing the biggest baddest halibut, other than bragging rights. If you actually plan on eating it, the bigger and older they get the tougher and stringier the meat gets. Better to land a small young one and actually enjoy your meal.

[@Chris-fo8wp]

You know nothing about halibut....

[@johnroossien522]

thank you , beautiful

[@joannford5860]

Part 1

[@mhappy01]

But how can you justify the waste, use all the felled wood not just the prime cuts.

[@juliusbyers7844]

I very much enjoyed the video & watching how a much larger than our 22 ft C-Dory boat cruises in these waters. Since 2003 we have spent many summers in SE Alaska cruising all the places you have shown & much much more. In our 22 foot boat we have circumnavigated Admiralty, Baranof, Chichagof & Yacobi Islands & have viewed over the years literally hundreds of bears along with the huge variety of other wildlife in this area. We have found the best cruising for wildlife & scenery & fewer other boats North of Petersburg, Alaska. Your narration of views on timber harvesting & oil while operating for personal pleasure a fuel guzzling oversized yacht, I found hypocritical & irritating on a otherwise extremely well done video.

[@spiritcallsus]

"hypocritical & irritating " is what I felt about your comment when what he stated was an obvious fact of the aftermath of the Timber Business in Western Canada and as a "boater" he was pointing out to the unwary, one of the greatest hazards to boating in those areas, you should have appreciated the info rather than taken the "high and mighty" position on that subject. IMnsHO

[@samcamp5980]

Sad to see geoengineering up in these areas.

[@rayunseitig6367]

logging at 23.50 is horroible

[@jensen7194]

Thanks, Great vids!!.....So sad to see "Mans Greed" at the expense of OUR Planets existence!!!!!

[@skipsassy1]

I cannot fight foreign labor costs - all the cruise ships are foreign built and crewed as you know. But maybe someone will at least note the issues with my posts - maybe. Love your videos though!

[@gregparrott]

Clearcutting is bad enough. Allowing cut, but unharvested logs to be swept away by tides in such numbers should be criminal. A minimal precondition for issuing a permit to log a specified area near shore or utilizing the sea for their removal should be a requirement for removal of cut logs anywhere within 50 feet of high tide. Fines should be PER LOG for violations.
