LIVING ON A SAILBOAT ON AN ISLAND IN THE BAHAMAS

- A day in the life living on a sailboat on an island in the Bahamas, Bimini. Not everyday is sailing in the cruising life. A lot of it is like "normal" land life. You still need to do the things that need to be done, running errands for things you need, doing laundry, eating and being happy! The difference is that you do these things in unfamiliar locations, no car, lots of walking and exposed to the elements. For this reason, everyday tasks take much longer to achieve but also feel like more of an achievement once completed. It can be a much slower and more appreciative way of life, however more challenging and not always do you appreciate the challenge. Always an adventure!

Everyone interested in an update:
Kate posted on her twitter,
The 3 (don't forget Lola) of them are safe in New England.
And, the boat is safe in Florida.
Way cool. Thanks for the update.
@@TheMorganMonroeShow Wonderful. Thanks for the update.
Kate and Wes!! Been following since late 2014. First sailing couple channel I followed. Can’t tell you both how happy I am for you guys and proud that you’ve made it through the challenges with your last boat. Starting my cruising journey this year! Hope to cross paths soon. Cheers!
SOOOO Nice to see all the life in the harbour while flying around! Thnx 4 giving all of us the power to keep working on making the same dream come true! We hope to see you guys soon! Floating and enjoying the boatlife around the globe.... SteVa from Belgium
Nice segment! I love the fact that we get to see daily routines and especially locales specific to your location i.e. laundromat and cell phone place. Thanks for awesome footage too... so beautiful!!
Now that is a vlog. Nice story. Beautiful drone footage. Plan, problem, solution, fun, and relaxation with friends. More, please!
Hope y'all are safe praying you all made it out of the path of this hurricane
Totally agree drone footage is awesome!
Hi Wes and Kate, we keep checking for more videos! Hope all is well and you're just enjoying the boat life. We spent the summer in Rhode Island and can't wait to get back to warmer weather.
Enjoyed the video mates! I figured the Big Game Club would have all sorts of amenities like any big marina. The laundromat looked off site? Glad you scored a courtesy flag! Great video underwater! Getting me excited for our trip to the Bahamas in 119 days!
WOW the Bahamas is beautiful!! Great video!
Can we get an update on your present location and boat as well as plans. Thank you
What a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing.
I used to have a Catalina 30 great boat I miss Bimini that was a very nice spot in the early 90s
Ya'll have come a long way, great videos ! I'm jealous.
Greetings your royal saltinesses, this episode was exceptionally salty and was just what I needed today. See you on the water, sail on rad ones.
I am sure you are ready,
Take care
Bonne chance !
I hope you are safe and well.
Hope you find a gooood hurricane hole..remember other boats breaking free are the biggest danger.. use lots of anchors. Don’t stay on the boat.
be safe.. thinking of you.
I spent a month there on my SV Salty Lady Thanks for memory
Those stuffed peppers look bomb!
Stuffed peppers and I wasn't invited?...LOL. They're one of my favorites.
y'all post more! pretty please. I know you guys are busy having fun. but we were super cool with goprochest mount shots of rigging the boat and heck just film the little things. or get me out there to shoot you guys!
After watching you guys on Sailboat Story, came back to this video which I saw a while ago. You guys do an excellent job making videos. Much better than a lot of the channels out there. Wish you would get back to it. BTW, there are SO many Catalina 30's out there (I have 2). Built in audience. We would all love to see how the boat does on the open water. Maybe next year?
Loved every minute of it guys, great job as usual.
I love that intro.. that beat was sick. Peace and love from New York.
food looked amaz!!
The Compleat Angler was way cool. We were there in 1987, before it burned, and got a tour of the place from Ozzie Brown. But, the Bimini Big Game Club was still pretty cool back then, too. They had a bartender named Cooper back then, who had served Hemingway drinks. It's a lot different these days.
Stuck in a rush hour NYC traffic, hungry...
Those peppers looked good!
Thx for sharing
Keep it up!
Stuffed Peppers = A Wicked Salty staple.
Kate's Famous Jalepeno Poppers! :)
Yea, my wife and I wanna join your sailing journey, I'm a scuba instructor
We spend New Year’s there last year headed back this year to i hope
nice!
I'm curious, at the start of the episode the drone footage showed you tied off to a bouy on your port quarter and also to the pontoon on your port bow as well as being tied on the starboard side. Why not just tie off on the starboard side with fenders?, Also, why didn't you reverse into the slip?
Michelle says Hi too!
I just knew there was another reason I liked you kids......you use Chrystal hot sauce. Been our familys' favorite for many years too! We actually brought a bottle with us on every cruise we took with my late parents!
New to your channel, looking forward to following.
Cruising Wild Child
Its been a long time since we've seen a video. Just wondering is you decided to call it quits on the vids. We've had to follow the rest of this Bahama trip from Sailboat Story.
Hi nice portrayal of the reality of cruising to a new port but still making it interesting. I've heard there is cheap and good phone and Internet called 'island time" ? Cheers Warren
What’s up with the monthly posts?
Really enjoy your vids
Any chance of getting a weekly fix?
how ocean capable would you say the Catalina is ?
Try google fi for cell phone coverage. It works internationally for the same cost as local in the us
I have MetroPCS and a Google number. I can add international calling, text and data for an extra fee per month and drop it when I don't need it anymore. I think it's $5 per month, but don't quote me on that. I've been known to be wrong on occasion.
Hi Wes. Can you back up on the selfy shots ... to close ... one metre is fine or wider angle please...
Totally hoping your gnarly wicked salty gig has found its way down south. No reason to be sitting in the middle of this hurricane. Remember kids, when all else fails, stay off of your face. It seems to be working well for me.
Cool vedio thank for saiding and yes I did also
Could you guys keep a track of spending mainly marina fees. It would be very interesting to know as we are looking to head there one day so trying to figure out how much to save.
Ask about new SV SeaWolf videos. I miss their videos. Out running Pirates and all.
How does the new boat compare to the old boat might be a good subject by the way. I am looking at boats and discounted Catalina and Hunter.
If your Catalina is working out well, that opens up my search.
I have some great memories of the Compleat Angler hotel. Sad to see it gone.
Do you lock your boat when leave it at the dock or at anchor?
We always lock our boat up
Is the collapsible wagon still holding up? I was thinking of getting one of them, but wanted your take on it first?
It's THRIVING, but really still intact and 100% functional. Just some slight wear on the wheels which would be expected. Only downside is that when not full of supplies (on the way to the store) it only tows well in the open position but that's not really a problem. Definitely the best cart we saw out there.
@@WickedSalty Nice to know. I will be sailing this Winter even if I am only doing it in the 25 footer. Hopefully we can get something bigger, my family is looking.
@@allynonderdonk7577 Good luck Allyn! looking forward to hearing how that goes
A break from the city
Everything you need is in Marsh Harbour
That is true too!
Were on the Space Coast did you haul the boat for the summer?
Did you guys lose your dingy. Motor in that 80. Mph. Hurricane ?
Two months since the last update, is this the end for Wicked Salty?
I think it could be the End
Hello, I have been following you for a while now. What sites do you use for predicting the weather?
Dude when is your next video ?
It hurt$ but several cell phone makers (apple, htc, samsung, more) sell DIRECT "developers edition" cell phones. US market channels, full US warranty. These are totally unlocked and often cover ALL carriers, including Verizon. Next time you are looking, consider one of them. Costs more, does more. No more chains.
A Town named after me
What about hurricane season? How long are you staying?
What boat do you guys sail?
After entry fees etc. are paid in the Bahamas does someone still charge you to drop the hook? I recently came across a blog that made it sound like dropping the hook isn't free down there. Hoping you can shed some light.
Galaxymaster Dave no charge to drop the hook anywhere except in a Land and Sea park. Even off a private island, no charge to anchor, but can not go ashore. Mooring balls you pay for like anywhere else.
@@macsailor1 you can go ashore lol I'm not sure where you got that information
How can you tell if you cell phone is locked?
Hope you aint near dorian rite
Wes Kate ? Are you guys ok ???
any cruise living for europe.
Is that a Catalina 30
1988
That plant in the cockpit ain’t lookin too good.
That looks absolutely horrible. I guess you can tell I'm not envious at all :D
:P glad we can share it with you!
You Suck! I say that with love. Your drone shot at the :17 mark killed me. So awesome!
Not a good time for Bahamas. You should be way south Turks and Caicos
😊👍👍👍
beautiful drone shots
and great pictures at: instagram.com/lolathesaltydog/
Great living guys. Thanks for the videos. 👍 Is it just me or is Kate an unknown twin sister of Miley Cyrus?
Hello? Channel death?
Nice but I mute the music...horrid

@@WickedSalty ... no comment.
@@AlfOfAllTrades or is that?
Should I stay subscribed?
Follow them on Instagram, Wes is working fulltime at a boatyard at there home up north, he said they wont be sailing this winter unfortunately
Great to see you guys enjoying life! Hard work and persistence pays off!! Happy for you!
Hope you made it out of the path of that Hurricane. Post again when you can - meanwhile you're in my prayers. The devastation is unprecedented. All the best of luck.

Thanks Patrick!
Just saw the microburst on Sailboat Story. Hope you guys made out OK. Keep the vids coming!
Great video, and thanks for sharing it as I will be repositioning my boat to the ABC islands from the US and Bimini is one of my stops. My passage will be done in stages, as I can't do it all at once since I'm still in the workforce and will be either single-handed,or short-handed, and will leave the boat for a week or so at various locations, ( T&C, GTK, RD, PR) so this video is a great heads up for me, in addition in avoiding hurricane season as well. The cell phone is crucial indeed. I have the fortune of working for an airline so I've been flying in and out of various islands finding out the logistical issues, to minimize potential boat and personal issues. Enjoy the cruising, stay safe and fair winds.
Wow ! Awesome footage !
Great drone footage. Really adds to the production quality
Awesome Video! We could see the Shark and Ray's from up above! How much did the Courtesy Bahamian Flag sell for? What was Lola's Snack? Did the Laundromat take American Quarters?
So much to learn from your videos!
Thanks!
🙏 that you are both, Lola, and your boat are safe! ❤️ & 🙏 out to you all and all who were affected by the hurricane.

Thanks for posting and sharing. Great to see you all in this video.
Spoilers I’m still on the icw videos
SPOILER ALERT: We're alive and the boat is still safe. :)
Those little beach breakers were sweeeeet.
Looks like you are about to abandon this TH-cam project.
Putting that drone to work baby!
Hope you guys are doing alright!
Good to see you all back on the water!
I hope all of you are ok and safe.
You three were the second YT Sailing channel we subscribed to during your last adventure....now we subscribe to hundreds of channels, but you’re still one of our favorites. It’s great to see you three out there again. 😊
