  • I reach the end of the Erie Canal, Farfalla becomes a sailboat again and tastes salt water for the first time and I check off one of those big bucket list items, sailing down the Hudson River into New York Harbour!!!
    PLEASE NOTE: I mistakenly labeled West Point NY as a Naval Academy. It’s actually Army.

    Great video! My kid lives in Cleveland & my boat has 6’ draft too, so I now know I can go up through Erie Canal to visit from Lake Champlain. Your edit of the CSN chorus was seamless, except for the guy who kept opening the door- lol. Much thanks!

    Hey, Brian! Just heard you on Paul Trammel's latest episode of his 'Offshore Sailing & Cruising' podcast -- loved it and it's so awesome, as well as inspirational, to learn of other sailors living in harmony with the sea, with nature! I'm also a sailor, though still sailing on the inland lakes, in the midwest, where I grew up. As a teenager, each summer, I also enjoyed sailing/cruising in the Great Lakes -- the Apostle Islands, Isle Royale, and Mackinac Island. I hope to trailer my Com-Pac 23, SV Charm, up to Lake Superior so that I can revisit the places that shaped my life so long ago. Eventually, I also hope to also go offshore and sail to faraway lands! I am also a musician, singer-songwriter; I play 'ukulele. I look forward to exploring your music and following your sailing journey aboard your beautiful Farfalla! Perhaps, one day, I'll be lucky enough to catch one of your dinghy concerts! 🥰⛵Fair winds, ~ Chelle

      She has had a lot of issues that I’ve been taking care of as they happen. Most I was prepared for with spare parts preordered before I left. She now has a new alternator, water pump, electronic ignition, thermostat and housing, electric fuel pump and most recently a new carburetor, fuel lines and new racor style fuel filter. But through it all I’ve been super impressed with how well she actually keeps purring along.

    • @bdale2

      Haha it’s the little wind direction indicator that sits at the top of the mast. Basically a windvane.

    would have loved to seen this vid but just not possible with that annoying horrid noise that some call a tune or music blasting away.
