automated bird bath filler
มุมมอง 6K9 ปีที่แล้ว
A way to fill your bird bath using your automated watering system. Could be more elegant, but it works, and the hummingbirds like the fine spray. The bird bath is made from a glass top, and a concrete pedestal that had had it's matching top broken.
Goat Island Skiff: First reef day, San Diego Harbor
มุมมอง 7K10 ปีที่แล้ว
Goat Island Skiff two man sailing with the first reef in. Fifteen knots gusting to twenty on San Diego Harbor. The end of the video has a few distance shots of the GIS sailing under one reef.

Goat Island Skiff through different points of sail shot from a long boom mounted camera. Eight knots of wind gusting to twelve. With two people, much less hiking would be needed, with one, it's just good exercise! First two tacks are a bit weak, the second two are better. The mid-boom sheeting arrangement is my own mod.
A Goat Island Skiff Tour of San Diego Harbor
มุมมอง 34K11 ปีที่แล้ว
A twenty plus mile tour of San Diego Harbor, showing points of interest that can be viewed by boaters, or explored on land. Starting in Glorietta Bay on Coronado, I rowed and sailed down to the south boat basin of Shelter Island, then back. The winds were typical, very little at eight in the morning, building to 12-15 knots from the west by two in the afternoon. The music is Vaughan Williams, T...

GIS good wind and small ocean waves 2
มุมมอง 9K11 ปีที่แล้ว
Same day out as first video, but at a camera angle that shows more of the sail, and less of the boat. I bear away on the starboard tack to go around a patch of kelp. Later in the sail while on a broad reach I ran smack into some kelp I didn't see, and it was like slamming on the brakes. Pulled the board to get free. descripition from the first video: Sailing my Goat Island Skiff in twelve knots...
Goat Island Skiff good wind and small ocean waves
มุมมอง 57K11 ปีที่แล้ว
Sailing my Goat Island Skiff in twelve knots, no reef, and local ocean wind waves mixed with a small ocean ground swell. This video shows how well the GIS performs in smaller waves and that the higher freeboard and hull shape do a good job of keeping it dry as well. Tough way to spend a weekend afternoon! Shot with a short transom mounted camera boom slightly elevated, and a Nikon AW100. The Go...

Camera mounted at the top of the yard of my Goat Island Skiff. This may make you dizzy! Around the middle is my favorite part, going downwind, that shows the full length of the hull. Wind velocity was 11 knots.

Longer video sailing my GIS in flat water and ocean swells, with the camera mounted on a four foot boom off my transom. Three video segments spliced together with no music, or voice, just the sounds of sailing.

Sailing my Goat Island Skiff "Feather" on Lake Hodges. Approximate wind is 15 knots. The video is in HD, so you can watch it fullscreen (the ads are less bothersome that way too).

Why you should floss to prevent cavities
beautiful
Nice G.I.S. Are you still in San Diego? Where can you launch?
where the hell is this a available
Appears to be maybe a rainbird 12" popup sprinkler. On those, there is an adapter available to convert from lawn sprinker to dripline. There is also a threaded polyflex riser. That's the small tube part. At the top is some gooseneck and a spitter emitter. I'm not familiar with the gooseneck. They may have heated the stiff polyflex and bent it to shape. Someone familiar with rainbird and drip systems could help you work out the parts. Lowes probably carries most of it.
There are also popup micro sprinklers that are already set up for dripline - so you'd just put a goosenect and spitter on the end of that. Or just a section of poly, if you don't need it to pop up.
Do you live in San Diego area? I would love to see GIS in person.

move the camera slowly
This is exactly what I'm trying to make right now.
Jeffery Bates, look at bird bath
Hey, why did you modify the transom?
Hi! GIS is such a nice boat. What do you have on the floor? Is it a mat, or what do you use in there?
audio pretty lame....
Que lugares!,que aguas celestes hermosas!,que botes buenísimos en su simpleza!,Que más le podes pedir a la vida!.?
Great footage! Just got back from sailing SD bay and saw one of these. So fast downwind!
In case anyone is curious - since this video I've switched to end sheeting, a carbon boom and no longer let go of the tiller extension during tacking. At least this video can be used to show how not to handle the tiller extension during tacking!
Nice
Valiente el Capi!,y se ve que el Dinghy es bien marinero.!,
I love this kind of boats 😍. 🌬️🌬️🌬️⛵👌
Where did you get the long oars? I need some that are about 9 feet long.
What kind of mat is in you're boat?
Ahhh!...y que buena música!
Para los que navegamos,este lugar es como llegar al cielo!,es el paraíso en la tierra!,un barquito bien marinero,de maniobra simple,un lugar con bicicletas,un café,un shoping!y un agua cristalina ,celeste,con una brisa para quedarse a vivir allí.Felicitaciones hermano!
Huzzah for Lucky Jack!!!!
Haha
Loud music and NO sound of the water. Why don;t the boats play radio, TV or loud music? You are taking pictures of boats but totally missing the experience of sailing!
How long is the boat and the mast?
Very nice boat. I went to school in La Jolla. Why would someone want to sail by the lee?
Wonderful footage and accompanying music. Excellent choice! Beautiful film!
Very nice video. Inspiring indeed.
Good times!
Ein wunderschönes Video , danke für's hochladen
What a dog! :-D
I had forgotten about this video. Yep, he's a keeper
Much prefer a narrated video to forced (muted) music view . Good overview of the goat showing its true live ability. Very good sir
Love your videos. I am considering building the Gis. How long is your beautiful boat and trailer when parked in the garage? I have 21' in my garage. I think it is long enough.
Hi John, I keep mine in the garage. The mast is the same length as the boat at 15.5 feet, so the boat on the trailer including the trailer tongue comes out to about 18 feet. Fits perfectly. If you have not already, you should check out the Goat Island Skiff facebook group. It's very active with folks sailing their GIS's and people currently building. For the fb group, just send a request ot join, they are good about getting people in right away.
agjtsoftley thank you! I recently joined that group. I've been trying to decide between a goat or the goose for a build. Goat is just beautiful.
speed ???)
Nice video. I really like your shots of you sailing with the gopro on extended boom.
whow, that's what I call sparkling light wind performance, and on such a sparkling, crisp day - great boat, lucky sailors!
I am getting ready to move back to the west coast next summer and have plans to build my own GIS once we get settled. Looking forward to sailing those same waters.
jeremy reed Nice. There is one more GIS here in San Diego. You should join the Goat Island Skiff group on facebook. People help each other there on the build process, and you can easily ask any questions you have directly to Michael Storer, the designer.
I already joined thanks. Lots of great info on there.
Interesting down wind angle for the sail. Not used to seeing that. Great video angle..beautiful boat!
thunks
Awesome explanation of probing in general and the procedure. Thanks so much for posting
I like this boat & believe it to be an excellent light- weight sailboat with an advanced/ retro rig. One thing only bothers me...if you are going to hike , surely you need slightly wider side- decks for the butt! It must feel like sitting on the edge of a piece of lumber very quickly.
The GIS looks like a great little boat. Thanks for sharing your video.
cant tell you how much i enjoyed your video, your boat is beautiful and represents a long forgotten time, it seemed to me like it has a living soul...maybe its also the audiotrack that makes it nice to watch. No doubt a jewel.
Beautiful boat! I've been looking at different type of skiffs/dories for fishing offshore. How does this skiff perform in 2-3ft tight waves? I realize it wouldn't be too much fun, but does the boat feel safe? I've never fished aboard a sailboat... have you found any real downsides? Thanks!
Two to three foot spaced ocean swell is no problem. Tight waves can be a bit bumpy, but I have never felt unsafe offshore. I rigged my boat for trolling, which I've done a couple of times, but mostly we bay fish, either at anchor, or drifting and moving around with the oars. The back of the boat is very stable to stand in, and makes a great place to cast from. TO get a feel for sailing this boat offshore, watch this one: GIS good wind and small ocean waves
Hi my name is john and I own a northeastor dory...sail and oar boat. Watching your two videos on san diego harbor and Oceanside gave me the courage to go and sail those two places....thanks for exposing me to the idea of sailing at these great places....I cant wait to see where your going to sail next...
So right, flossing is important. I learned it the hard way half a year ago. I wasn’t flossing so all the sweets and food gathered together between two molars, and cavities began building up in both teeth for a long time. It wasn’t detected at ordinary dental visits until I got tooth ache. At that time x-ray showed very large and very deep cavities in both molars. So both needed a root canal treatment and are now ready for a crown. So now I am once a day
nice sailing!!!
Your video has just inspired me to dust off my skiff and get back out there! Your GIS is superb. Thank you and happy sailing. Regards Scott
Wow it looks like you are really flying.
That's a nice looking boat, great job building it.
Had this done recently. Oh god I hated it.
