Why your sailboat has a ‘Bermuda Rig’ (Full Boat Tour)

[@danieloliver20]

Great one James and Crew! That Foundation should be running our world, we'd all be better off... Cheers!!

[@jerbear7952]

No one needs to run the world. Be free

[@richardrichard508]

With the dedication and passion that the Captain, CEO and permanent crew give to these kids; what they take away from this is life changing and something they will never forget. Great thanks also to the sponsors who have and continue to make this happen. Yes from previous experience 2 weeks seems to be about the ideal length of time for young students and 1 week for adults.

[@AustinBoil]

What a fantastic program for youth. The experience has to create lifetime memories & friendships along with social & technical skills. There needs to be many more of this type of program for our young people. Kudos to these gentlemen who are dedicated to make this an ongoing success. I'm sure they have no problem getting kids to sign up for this. Thanks for sharing!

[@Hermandbl7]

Great interview and tour. James, you have a hidden talent as an interviewer. Good questions; you let the captain do most of the talking and gave us a taste of sailing on the Spirit of Bermuda!

[@RoyalJoke248]

Herman, you nailed my sentiments. Great episode.

[@thelastpirate]

That was all Robin and Alex. It was nice to meet these guys. Very knowledgable, easy to talk to.

[@RoyalJoke248]

@@thelastpirate I'm not buying that. Nice try on a deflection, but good work mate. You are better than you let on. A good seaman too.

[@MrTattooman666]

Awesome Video James ! Awesome Cause for the Kids! 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️’s through and through!

[@BohemianBeatster]

Magnificent sailing vessel, fantastic programs for young people and a beautiful way to reserve nautical history. Thank you so much James for sharing this classic with all of us.

[@petergroves9343]

One of your coolest videos James, well done for getting that done. You can see the CEO & Captain have a passion for that project, great to see & hear how they run that vessel, pure class Fair winds to all concerned ⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵

[@thelastpirate]

Thanks, Pete! I really enjoyed that boat as well.

[@carlasbury8045]

Love the concept of what they are doing with the kids. I do agree that it would be good for them to have at least 2 weeks time.

[@jhaedtler]

Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing with us all!

[@thelastpirate]

Come SAILING with Zingaro!!!! Go to sailingzingaro.com/ to see availability. Hope to see you out here! -James

[@cozmicknight7704]

James, ...keep THE GIRL. 😉🙂

[@cozmicknight7704]

Another thing, if I could have a say in choosing a brother, it'd be you James. You'd make a very cool brother.

[@dennishopkins8046]

Thanks James for what you do, I got into the Annapolis Boat Show using your discount code, but unfortunately was not able to meet up with you - spent too much time looking at all the catamarans.

[@stumagoo3372]

great tour James! really good episode! and you cant beat the smell of a timber boat and most people talk to their timber boats like there a living thing, myself included!

[@bobkeleher3455]

I really appreciate the direction you've taken your channel.

[@cozmicknight7704]

Agreed! It's refreshingly too! 😉

[@MS-Matakana]

So great to watch this video I just brought a small support vessel off a similar organisation here in New Zealand "Outward Bound NZ" Really love what these organisations do for the youngsters of today. Keep spreading the word Bro 😁 So cool James

[@davidl6671]

Always educating! Nicely done!

[@somadevo]

Beyond amazing! You handled the interview well, James.

[@GarnetMelville]

Thanks James, this type of content is fantastic, you've introduced me to many of the chanels I now follow. Your passion and love of all things sailing is infectious and we live vicariously through your adventures, good on you brother

[@Wedontwantnowarnomore]

Man what A Great Episode. What a beautiful ship! Absolutely Amazing. You’re looking good to. So happy everything going your way. Keep up the good work. Thank You 🙏

[@chrispy104k]

What a beautiful vessel. Thanks for sharing James.

[@lemansfrance2678]

James this is so cool! Thank you for letting us know about this ship!

[@captjbrennan]

Super Outstanding Video As Always! "I often ponder if I was born too late, or perhaps I lived as a pirate in another life, sailing the uncharted waters and chasing horizons with relentless passion. Like the timeless lyrics of Jimmy Buffett's 'A Pirate Looks at Forty,' my soul has always yearned for the boundless adventure of the open seas, and the exhilarating freedom to chart my own daring course." It's time! ⛵

[@joemeyer6876]

What a great coverage of boat stuff, i noticed the two thick watertight bulkheads, engine room Wow! Age 13 is the best age to encounter this. Wondering how many follow on to a life of sailing. Kudos James.

[@jeffcee9457]

Nice to see the sprite again we race against her in the Newport to Bermuda Race. See you at the boat show Annapolis M.D

[@patrickfitzoot]

Excellent episode, good work taking your time and covering so much, instead of glossing over details. 👍👍👍👍

[@xabeque8]

Great content and your interviewing skills are top notch as you are also a very good listener. The best video I have seen of the Spirit of Bermuda and I'm Bermudian. Thanks for showcasing this fantastic ship. Andrew

[@MiketakesaHike]

I have been following you for sometime, and did not know you where on submarines. I was on USS Sculpin SSN 590, USS San Francisco SSN 711, and my final boat was USS Michigan SSBN 727. I now have an even greater respect for you and your journey, fair you well from one bubble head to another.

[@stelioshondrocolos1869]

I odnt think there is any proof he was ever a submariner

[@americanbornwalkaway9110]

GOOD Stuff James GREAT Vibes

[@Chris97302]

Looking forward to hopefully see you this week!

[@ewanmactaggart1012]

[@maritimetees2315]

Thank you for sharing. Wonderful video. Very educational.

[@UUBrahman]

When I was 15 did 9 weeks on the Tabor Boy, and 88 ft. steel former Dutch pilot schooner built about 1914 best experience of my adolescence staying up in the crow's nest, working the square rigged sails, standing night watch, and only sick when I had to had wash plates for 15 returning to MASS. from Bermuda. Thanks.

[@braithmiller]

Good on you James for giving them the episode. Bermuda rigged multiple masts are fine under control in hard weather. Live sail training ❤

[@scottmccutcheon9828]

James...what a COOL project!!! Thanks for showing this!!! Be well!

[@psaub]

What an awesome vessel, and very awesome people. Great video james. I love your channel!

A truly magnificent ship and and super fast.

[@timtrinkaus7072]

Awesome video James well done!! What an amazing cause I’m glad you showcased this boat and cause in your video!

[@thehugoalexander]

Best video man!!!! You live your pirate ships. We need to get you one!!!

[@defel1]

Excellent video. I love 19th-century sailing vessels!

[@jonathanvince8173]

That is so interesting and it is important to remember the past how things were done Navigation directional changes what a great thing.

[@donquesenberry]

It a great episode, hopefully, I'll see you in Annapolis

[@thelastpirate]

Thanks, Don! Come say hi at the KZbin booth. You can find the time I'll be there at the booth. ;>)

[@donquesenberry]

I'll see you there

[@_pic_7571]

Awesome video, well done James and Crew.

[@BoroBootBoy]

This is soooo COOL !!!!

[@hodadyou]

Love the sub crew's berthing analogy. Probably some hot racking going on while at sea. They should try hammocks to increase the bunking space.

[@cliffdavis5244]

Awesome episode James!👍🏼👏🏼

[@Useless_Knowledge07]

Awesome info! Hit the thumbs-up, share far and wide!

[@wayneedwards5158]

Awesome tour! Thanks for that! 👍

Once again Great content , really enjoyable Thanks James Stuart in Ireland ☘️

[@danaparedes5613]

Over a million per year in maintenance!!! I'm sure the kids realize how lucky they are.

[@thelastpirate]

Yeah, that's quite the bill... I want one... but holy hell that's quite the maintenance bill.

[@Flourbabies]

Love this boat!!!❤❤❤

[@timreynolds1195]

Wow! Fantastic vessel indeed and the mission as well. Maybe when you get a bit long in the tooth James we'll see you captain a similar project.

[@bermyFairn]

Good job man, you did us proud.

[@sharonwalsh6168]

You need to come to Nova Scotia and do a story on the fastest sailboat in the world!!!!! The Bluenose. Docked in Lunenburg NS

[@remyyamabushi1473]

magnifique bateau. Mais je ne vais pas en faire la maquette. Je vais etre sage et finir déjà ceux que j'ai commencé. Merci pour cette superbe visite.

[@jamesgood6065]

See you in Annapolis! Friday. Lovevto buy you a beer.

[@yardarm5]

That is appreciated ❤🎉

[@h.v7461]

Very interesting. Thanks.

[@jiefflerenard1228]

Short trip means more kids have a chance to sail, but two weeks would be more of a life changing experience.

[@brentclarke1841]

Great video, awesome boat,, teaching kids to sail 👍⛵👍🐬🐟🐳🐢🐠🦈

[@jamesbotkin8397]

Very cool history

[@Odonanmarg]

Cool stuff.

[@webheadusa9377]

James, I have some sad news concerning Easter Island. An arsonist set a fire that charred and cracked the Moai figures. The authorities say the damage cannot be undone. I'll include some of the report below. Would you be able to link your Easter Island episode in your next episode? I would love to see it again. I've told you before your video of the Moai statutes and the island was awesome. Here is some of the report: "A fire set on Easter Island has badly damaged the sacred “moai” statues-some irreparably, according to the director of the park. The blaze was set deliberately on Monday around the Rano Raraku volcano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it spread over an area of 148 acres. Mayor Pedro Edmunds Paoa has called the event an act or arson. “All the fires Rapa Nui are caused by human beings,” he told the local broadcaster Radio Pauta. “The damage caused by the fire can’t be undone,” he continued. “The cracking of an original and emblematic stone cannot be recovered, no matter how many millions or euros or dollars are put into it.” It is unclear how many statues were damaged. A lack of volunteers slowed down the response to the fire, according to Ariki Tepano, director of the Ma’u Henua community, which who oversees the parks management." :¬( Webhead USA

[@thelastpirate]

It hurts my heart to hear that. These statues have survived much more than arson... A tsunami in the 60's knocked them over and carried a few inland quite a ways. Plus, due to the tribal warring, they were knocked over and most of the heads broken off. I think the resilience of the Moai and people of Easter Island will carry on forever. I'll actually be going back there next year (haven't announced that yet, but I'm working on the video). Thank you for letting me know. I'll link the easter episode with the announcement video in 2 weeks :) Thanks for the update.

[@jiefflerenard1228]

Did you say "Macaroni sloop"???? That is funny !When 5 years old I would have said : "macaroni in his head , macaroni in his head, macaroni ...." but I have a long white beard so I 'll say Marconi sloop, M A R C O N I sloop.

I brought a boat back from Bermuda.after the race.48 foot catch many years ago.

[@tim3wade4]

Check out Wind Hippie Sailing! Holly a 27-year-old woman solo sailing a 27-foot sloop around the world. She aims for simplicity in the boat’s systems and operation. a fiberglass dinghy that She rows, a wind vane for self-steering, and no refrigeration...I think you will like it too!

[@chriszanf]

AWESOME!

[@chikken_soup]

Curious do a lot of "KZbin cruisers" halt their lives, wherever they are in the world, to attend the Annapolis Boat Show?

[@thelastpirate]

This is only the second year for the KZbin booth at the Annapolis boat show, but with the success of the first show last year I imagine more and more channels will want to attend. This year there will be something like 50 channels! Amazing. When I started my channel there was only a dozen, or so, of us. Now there's hundreds of cruising channels. I love it. So, to answer your question, yes. ;)

[@gtsteven1]

"Scalawags" Let's be proper, James. I used to spell it with an "e", but looking up the history of nautical and pirate terms and shanty lingo, I discovered it was "Scalawags". Best sailing U-Swab. I made that up...Underwater-Sailor, but now, keep the boat in the water and the water out of the boat.

[@drewsky5577]

I think Nova Scotians would have something to say about the schooner thing .

[@Grounded4]

You don¡t mention the obviously watertight bulkheads and closing mechanisms.

[@Tomm9y]

It would be great for these kids to spend time in dinghies. That would add to their sense of responsibility, self discipline, self learning.

[@olivercagle4766]

How about medical emergency on the Spirit of Bermuda?

You have kids?

[@williamwoolcock]

I don't want to be critical but I've noticed a lot of KZbin videos feature talking heads and you see very little of the content. I want to see the boat, perhaps narrate while you show the boat. There are many KZbins where you see very little of the car, skoolie, and, in this case, the boat. Instead people like to talk. Perhaps start looking at the real content of the video, not just the talking heads.

[@jamesleaty7308]

Um how much you payin for this. the sponsors and utube's payment structure dictate the content,,and in the end its free. You agree to those terms by clickin. If they did it the way you want. KZbin would not even show it. Thats kind of the deal. NOW Its up to you to find a youtuber that you like. People like James.
