That was Taylor’d For 2 out of Rochester, MN at 27:35. We completed the loop in 2022. We enjoy your content. Hope you both are well.
Was that you guys on the boat that yelled over to us?
@@backwatersandbackroads Yes it was me, good luck on. your trip.
@fivetaylor Thanks for replying. ;) I'm gonna pin this comment. Brainerd is put home port. Love Minnesota (outside the Twin Cities)
Did you stop by Steinhatchee FL while cruising up the inside of FL???? I spent my Summers in the '60s growing up there running the river & flats....
@MausMasher54 yes sir. We stayed there for several days. Next episode coming up...
Sometimes you seem to think your videos are boring, think about who it is that's mostly watching your videos.
Let me make some assumptions, about 20% don't even own a boat, but have dreams about owning one "someday".
At least 70 % own a boat, but it's the wrong type of boat to make a long trip.
The lucky. ones with the right type of boat have dreamed about doing what you're doing, but have never done it for anyone of 100's reasons.
But we all get to live vicariously thru your videos no matter who we are.
I'd say your probably pretty close to exactly right.
There are also those who admire the resourcefulness of doing the Loop with little or no stops in a marinas - i'm very jealous of the flat bottom boat that can find SO MANY places to anchor up for the night!
Amen, I have one of those reasons. How astute of you.
I loved your answer when asked, "Where's you registration?", and your response, similar to that in the classic movie, Up in Smoke, "It's on the side of the boat man" lol
"Dave's not here man!" :)
😂
Or where's the throwable??? In the back man!
My dad had bought a small camp only about 10" from the lake for $16,000 and owned it for 50 plus years.
When he passed away no one in the family wanted it, and it fell in disrepair.
My sister was the exutor of his estate and put off trying to sell it for year because she thought it was useless because she did not like boats, swimming or fishing.
The first day it was listed 10 people showed to make offers.
It sold for over $350,000.
crazy!
Dad had a good eye! 👍🏼
YOU GOT RIPPED OFF. DAD WANTED THAT IN THE FAMILY
Excellent content. You really are famous! Thanks for bringing us along!
15 minutes of fame/Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.
@IntheBlood67 I recently watched a great documentary about Andy Warhol (the originator of 15 minutes...) someone asked him "why do you make art of soup cans and everyday things?" His reply...."because it's easy" blahahahaha. He was a kind of genius
There was a devastating hurricane here a few years ago (2019?) which took a lot of these kinds of places out of service and resulted in abandonment. No conspiracy. Just a bad storm.
Regarding your discussion of the sea conditions. I believe this is where we get the sentiment, fair winds and following seas.
Absolutely! ;)
You’ll never get me in a 15 minute city. I’ll be like Geronimo although I’ll never surrender. So, maybe that makes me like Brian Adams. Nope.
Psalms 107:23-27
23 Those who sail on the sea in ships, who do business on the high seas,
24 have seen what the LORD can do, the miracles he performed in the depths of the sea.
25 He spoke, and a storm began to blow, and it made the waves rise high.
26 The sailors aboard ship rose toward the sky. They plunged into the depths. Their courage melted in [the face of] disaster.
Love you brother! Stay safe. Another banger of a video. 🙏🙏🙏
That is a very fitting bible verse. Thank you. Almost needs to be posted on the wall somewhere.
@@backwatersandbackroads I thought you would probably like those. 🙏
Another cool video I enjoy them for sure the weathered look on the beagle barge is an earned badge of accomplishment. Seeing the old camp houses you have to think that at one time it was someone's pride and joy and somehow life got in the way of its enjoyment.
You guys are so lucky to live in a culture that has proper coast guard. No animosity, neither did they ask for a bribe or try to frame you or even bully you. By the book all checks for your safety and that of others. Both those people would literally risk their own lives to help save yours.
The US coast guard has never experienced a death on the job. Ever. Your local pizza delivery driver is putting himself in far more danger than those glorified life guards.
@@jazzfeline5970 If you are a wannbee boater, or probably a credit card captain, I hope that your first "Mayday" response is "Was that with Extra Cheese?"
@@tomm6310 That made no sense. Learn to form a coherent joke. Nothing I said was untrue. Joining the coast guard is one of the safest lines of work outside of a desk job. Praising them for "risking their lives" is just pathetic.
@@jazzfeline5970 Not at all true! Check the number of Coasties lost around the Outer Banks and the number lost in Vietnam. Whre did you serve?
Just like trucking,gotta always stop for the 4 legged creature.lol and the DOT (COASTGAURD).LOL
The new dingy!! Loved it, house must have been really nice back in the day.
We are on the Santa Rosa Sound just West of Hurlburt AFB. We experienced the heavy rainfall the same time as you. I wish we could have seen you go past our house. We are on the open area just before the narrows. I was in the USCGAUX for 22 years. One of my jobs was to inspect the Aids to Navigation from Navarre to the East end of the bay. My daughter lives in Punta Vedra Beach about a half mile from the ICW. It will be a while before you get up towards Jacksonville. Good luck. My wife and I watch a lot of TH-cam folks doing the Great Loop.
Modern explorer and trusty sidekick...documenting days when we were free to build houses anywhere we dang well felt like it 💪. Thankful for all you share with us 👏👏👏
I love that some of your fans found you out on the water! How totally cool is that??? Great video yet again, Brenton and Wavey! Me and the kitties send love!
By the time you get home Wavey will have you well trained. Thanks for another great video.
I watch each new video at least twice because you always have some great nuggets that I miss on the first viewing. Thank you for letting us tag along on your adventure. Safe travels to you and your mate!
Thanks for finding value in these videos. It's an honor to be making them and they get watched by so many people now.
Also thanks for your showing the more industrial side am a huge fan of those beautiful places , have had cop’s pull up on me looking up at some weird stuff 😂
That aluminum boat looked like some type of military almost. That was cool looking.
I finally caught up to where you are in your videos! Me and the wife are planning this in about 4 years... We are working on our 1971 boat right now for the trip!
Wavey is so stinking cute lol! Safe travels and see you up the icw!
She knows it and makes it work for her;) I've been keeping up with your trip. Awesome!
Good morning Captain!
You are brave going and exploring all these an abandoned boats and buildings. I got to build my courage up when I’m on my adventures to check out some of these spots I see.
I lived in the Panhandle of Florida for a good bit of my life and exploring properties along the ditch and back bays alone and unarmed is dangerous due to drug activity but in all honesty most of the loop could be seen as dangerous.
You are getting famous! I saw a Facebook picture of your boats, and people knew all about your channel. Congrats!🎉
They're called swamp barges or hero barge. They were used for supplies carrying men in and out of swamped to louisiana. Some had flat decks to carry supplies.Possibly a little house on it.Others were open hall with seating. You put a swap motor on it and you get in and out of one foot of water. Use in the old oil field days. I think they're still made.
New Iberia is next to Avery Island where Tabasco sauce is made in bottled. Southeast of Lafayette. Good video!
Lol yes sir. Your Famous . Thats Cool it must make you feel good. Another great video Brent and Wavey. Thanks for doing the videos . im sure its takes a great deal of time to edit them. Thanks George in Central N. Y.
We’ve been watching you for years now and it’s because of you we are planning our trip! Leaving from the twin cities too!
Wow, your present boat is a palace compred to the one 5 years ago. 😅
It is very 😎 cool what you are doing. Thank you.
Thanks for being here
I hope Wavey gets to use the poop deck and doesn’t always have to wait to go to shore. 🐾🐶
Good show…..
Yup be boarded by the Coast guard not uncommon ,As long as you have all your saftey gear up to date your good to go !
It shouldn't happen at all
That drive goes out the window pleasant rest road.
I've watched all your episodes of the loop it's awesome. I look forward to the next one thinking how nice it would be to do that. But I'm here in Grand Forks ND Working.
Whatchu doing up there? I've been there. I actually like it up there! ;) I might do the beet harvest this year up around there
My bet about the area where that house was located, at one time a developer came in there with big plans to make a resort community, but for some reason the company went bust, most likely something like the crash of 2008-09 killed the place. Maybe someone bought that house or it was just a sales model. Over the years of living in Florida and coastal South Carolina and Georgia, there are scores of such places in all three states. It was cool to take a tour of those abandoned structures. Another enjoyable Brenton and Wavy Beagle Shanty video!
J&J in New Iberia Louisiana and the cans floating in the river, green and red or call buoy’s
Looks fun. Florida Joe😊
Thanks for the lol to start my day ( to much information “ 😂😂
TMI news! ;) lol
Yeah man, smooth video.
Thanks again.
Anytime. Thanks for showing up ;)
@@backwatersandbackroads And thanks for the Shanty Boat Elite scoot. Still loving it five years later.
@@de6360I had no idea what I was doing back then ;) Thanks for putting up with those videos
Be safe but keep on…❤❤❤
I look forward to the big bend crossing
Coming soon...
Yes following seas.
Thank you ;) I'm always searching for the nautical terms ;)
Captain Fantastic and the Brown Nosed Beagle!
Хороший сюжет Брэндон👌. Многое рассказываю о тебе своим друзьям. Говорят что ты забавный парень😉👍 и смелый. Удачи на большой воде🌊🌊🌊🤝
I'll check it out...
BTW the U.P. was dang quiet yesterday, took a ride up 28 and made a left towards L'Ance to look at a truck for sale. Dude there said it snowed last week lol.
2020-21 showed us how easily most people in the world will easily believe, comply, and accept being controlled by a small few corrupt, power-hungry people. They would easily comply to 15-minute cities.
@areguapiri I'm a big proponent these days of picking ones battles. This would be one where 15 minutes of questions to be on my way is a better use of my time than standing up for "muh rights" costume wearers have the upper hand in most cases, therefore pick your battles.
Love to find a old J&J manufacturing hull like that to redo. But I know better than to search because a new one would be expensive.. Oh well, thanks for all the great vids Brent..
I've heard the company made a few and sold them to folks building cabin boats
Hi 👋 Brenton and Wavey 😊😊
Hi Greg!! :)
Another great video! I love seeing abandoned properties for some reason..lol
That once upon a time nice looking House was built in 1988 believe it or not, don't have any more information on it other than it's on 29 Acres of property and not for sale
Thats amazing you were able to find that out. ;) Thank you
@@backwatersandbackroads lol it's easy and quick with Google maps and google search. 2 minutes.
You're welcome,.. I could tell you the names of the Property Owners if I had to. LOL
@@karaDee2363 amazing. Some folks know now to find info ;)
That area was hit by a major hurricane Michael back in 2018 and that area was in the direct path. Those structures were probably destroyed by the water surge if i was a betting man. Mexico beach was hit the hardest. In that area the trees look rough from the category 5 hurricane
Lol good thing you hid the stash 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Right?! Of treats ;)
😂😂😂😂😂
I believe that is New Iberia, LA.
The new dinghy is a Portland Pudgy. New Iberia is the town,on that label
Nice vid Brent
Thank you;)
I love your blog your a really nice person ❤😅
Wow, thank you. I'm not sure. I can honestly say I try though;)
Exactly 💯
I love your videos. I have a boat like the one you had 5 years ago. I would like to take it to tampa area from Cincinnati area. I have been learning by watchig your adventures.
The Shanty Beagle? Those are good enough boats for sure. Somehow we crossed Mobile Bay with a 280 pound scooter on the front in a storm :)
I’m not sure I wanna watch this next video the supplemental man Its gonna make me really grumpy Power dude
All I could think about is all that beautiful pine in that old house would look great in a shanty build. Yeah I believe it was a storm damaged property.
I had a friend that owned a beach house on the SC coast that was in a area that the state had made into a park if he passed the state would take it and use it for a rental and his children would have to rent it if they wanted to go there. Just before he died he sent in son who was a contractor and had it demolished and hauled away, he said that he had built,maintained it, paid taxes on it and had intended for his family to enjoy it and the state didn’t give him anything in return. So the state got a nice clean lot.
That's what I'm talking about. If you look at UN maps of land use for 2030...there aren't many places people are allowed to be. I think they're jack property taxes up so high, the rural areas will be cleaned out. I often say "I have a 51% chance of dying in a shoot out'....in mine craft of course :)
By the way I know your way passed it now but my buddy Alex also rebuilt the light house at St. Marks.
Looks like a USACE survey vessel. They are used to map areas that will be dredged.
Nice rig ;)
Princess Wavey. 😎😎
Yes sir ;)
It won't be long until you're famous enough to be driving 1 of the Crown Vics In Cleetus McFarland Races ! Maybe even the freedom 500!
No way ;) I'd just buy some remote cottage on an island in Lake Superior like Baird did recently. He's an inspiration
I watched the Coast Guard video, I sensed your anger and a little bit of fear. They have the power over your freedom. Yet knowing they could be your best friend in a pinch.
Keiegsmarine.
@@billkaldem5099 Watch the video.
I could sense it too, the gov can do whatever it wants without recourse. A frugal, minimalist with a dog can only hope they don’t target him. Fortunately, they were professional and made the stop short and didn’t fine him for anything.
As a former member of the Coast Guard, who did my share of safety inspections, the manner that these two performed the inspection is totally within the standards that Coast Guard personnel perform such evolutions. They maintained their professional demeanor. The Coast Guard has many missions, including performing safety boardings such as this on recreational boats. A boarding team may not be overly friendly but they still are your friends out on the water. But for their own safety, boarding members who perform a boarding on any sort of vessel must remain on their guard when going aboard someone else's boat. Just like state troopers and other land based law enforcement officers never know when a "routine" traffic stop can go sideways in a New York nanosecond, the Coast Guard have had vessel boardings go very bad in which the crew members of the stopped vessel have attacked Coast Guard boarding parties with weapons like Machetes, iron bars and firearms. Like it or not, this was a textbook vessel safety inspection at sea. And yes, one of the Coast Guard's high priority missions is to protect our waterways, vessels and port facilities from the dangers posed by potential adversaries, foreign and domestic! This post may piss some people off, but in this, that is too freaking bad. The Coast Guard is not going to F with someone just to do it, the service and it's men and women have their duties to perform. Making sure that recreational vessels have all of the proper safety gear and equipment in good working order is one that has value. If more recreational boaters knew all of the proper gear that they are supposed to have such equipment on board, and they knew, understood and followed The Rules of the Road to a greater extent than they tend to do, there would be less instances of boating accidents with the attendant injuries, loss of life and property. I can tell you that out on the waters that they patrol, the Coast Guard has your back and you will love to see Coast Guard surface vessels and aircraft come to your aid when the shit hits the fan, often in the worst possible weather conditions. We gladly put ourselves in harm's way to fulfill this prime Coast Guard mission along with facing the bad guys. Off of San Diego some years back, almost the entire crew of CG patrol boat much like this one in the video, were injured by drug smugglers and the Senior Chief Bosun's Mate in command of the boat was killed. The smugglers opened fire with automatic weapons as the CG boat approached theirs. It was a Mexican drug cartel smuggling operation.I will say that Brenton did quite well for himself. He acted in a calm, cool manner. Good job or as Coasties like to say: BRAVO ZULU to Brenton.
@@billkaldem5099 I think it's because at the end of the day, they're the enforcement for a completely corrupted system that no one should trust.
It’s called Crown Land
I can't find your back up channel. I wanted to watch the coast guard clip/video that you mentioned. Keep up the great content. You're getting closer to my area, we have a condo at the Moorings marina in Carrabelle.
Howdy, it's linked in the descriptions of videos, but sometimes folks can't find those if they watch on a TV. The back-up channel is called "Brenton's vLog Channel"
New Iberia, Louisiana...back when 318 area code covered most of Louisiana west of the Mississippi river. Now 337 area code covers New Iberia...not too far from my house in Lafayette, LA.
That might tell us roughly how old the hull is? 80s? 90s?
@@backwatersandbackroads New Iberia switched from the 318 area code in 1999. So at least that old,
sent you a email. Wondering where u will be in June. Thanks for your hard work!!
Bet those two abandoned houses have some good stories….
I wonder what that place was like when it was in good shape
New Iberia, La
Close to Lafayette and west of my hometown! (Houma in Terrebonne Parish)
Thank you! ;)
What is so DYNAMITE about yer travels is that You can access pristine areas which the Back roads Never will! Start trolling a spoon or something and begin enjoying Redfish fillets on the Barbie.
Will they hit at 4 mph buddy?
@@backwatersandbackroads Ya just never know what will happen, course I like shark meat!
@@backwatersandbackroads I fish a lot and you have to remember that 4mph for a fish is not really that fast, sometimes you gotta go slow but sometimes a super fast retrieve is the ticket, it doesn't give them time to "inspect" the bait, they just hit it out of reflex. A predator fish chasing food is going much faster than 4mph.
It never hurts to try, you just might get dinner. Or a Bull Shark 😊
IT "NEW IBERIA, LA" WHICH IS SOUTH OF LAFAYETTE, LA.
With all the pines I'd say a lumber company owns it now. May have been hit by a hurricane at some time 😮
That house and the wrecked boats were most likely from Hurricane Michael, from a few years ago. Horrible Hurricane did much devastation.
That would shake me up, being boarded like that. That feels like a huge invasion of privacy, and of your personal space. Glad you kept control of your boat while they were on board. You handled it well.
Thanks Linda. At the end of the day, it's one of those situations where you can't say no...and that doesn't sit well with people who value freedom and autonomy. When I hear/read people defending this as "just doing their job..." well, wait until costume goons are kicking down their doors or dragging them to "pandemic camps" for their safety of course, I wonder if they'll be thinking "they're just doing their job" what if their job is enforcing tyranny?
@@backwatersandbackroads I totally agree!
I would like to know why they thought it necessary to search your boat. It is as if we have no rights.
@lindaberl3712 the "safety" card is always played. Seems to open the door to anything goes, for "public safety" that's going to be our demise :(
@@backwatersandbackroads I think so too. Just look at the Patriotic Act that was put into place after 9/11 that supposedly was for our protection. All it did was give NSA free reign to spy on us citizens. Now it is even worse, we have the APPEARANCE of freedom, but we no longer actually have it. Look at how they locked us down during the scamdemic!
@@backwatersandbackroads🙄
Another great video. You’re getting pretty prolific. Love the way you find those old abandoned boats and houses.. Also loved your Robin Hood story. Sort of like our president against the evil sheriff of Mar-a-Lago.. So appropriate. Thanks so much.
That tag on your hull says New Iberia, LA.
Wow man, gutsy pretty cool man pretty cool video!!
Id call this video. ..The tide is coming in.
Out with the tide ;)

New Iberia, LA
The Coast Gaurd didn't confiscate ALL your Rum did they Matey?? ......Arrrr....☠️
They didn't ask the normal questions you'd thunk :) and no mention of the high capacity air rifle hanging on the back wall. Looks like a terminator gun
I feel so sad for the people who lost all those homes. That one with all the sliding doors must have been gorgeous at one time. I do not like to see people pushed out of their homes.
They state took about twenty feet of my land through imminent domain, and it was not a pleasant experience. I didn’t lose all my land, but I do not like what they did to us in the name of progress.
It's heart breaking. Not having a homemade is very hard.
Just watched Episode 37. Very Good! Started watching about Mobile, and decided to go back to the beginning... Watching on a Smart TV...What is Wavy's Treat Link?
Hi Roy, in the descriptions of the videos is a PayPal link for Wavey's treats. I imagine it's different to find it on a big TV?
I just ran across an idea that might help you. My best guess is that it is called a shallow water sand auger anchor. The main part is called. PlayStar PS 1100 Commercial Grade Auger (on amazon). There are videos on YT that use PVC for poles. However, I think you could use an 8ft galvanized fence post (or cut to whatever length you want.) Might want 2 of them, one for each corner. You being a handy guy, you would figure out brackets for the poles to attach to the boat. While not in use, could hand them on the side of the house on brackets. Just a thought.🤔
Fantastic idea! And already in the works ;)
@@backwatersandbackroads Maybe attach an U bolt or bracket on the outside of the deck for the pole side up or down. Could drill a small hole toward the bottom of the pole to pin in the upright position for traveling. Then a few larger holes for the twist handle higher up.
You would be surprised, in England. A great deal of the open land is owned by Saudis now. In Canada you are talking about 'Crown land' In the south most of that has been long sold off. In the north there is lots of it simply because no one lives there. I hope you take the Trent Severn route and learn more about Canada, when Sho and Jo came through, they where warmly welcomed. I know you would be as well.
I would love to explore the Canada side
New Liberia, Louisiana. My wife’s family is from there.
Cool! They make a lot of good work boats down there
Try rain ex on your windows 3-4 coats polished between coats will clear up your view alot
Thank you. I'm going to try that
Yup, rainex works GREAT!!!!
I was watching one of your older videos. You said, you can’t believe anyone wants to watch your videos? I love your videos my friend. You shouldn’t be so critical of yourself. I’m so glad the average guy can make content I can watch. Hollyweird has been dead to me for quite some time. If it weren’t for you and other guys like you I would be bored out of my mind. Feel free to bore me with more content. lol My dog peanut is still wavy’s biggest fan. Where you at now?
Thank you for that very encouraging comment. I think the videos have gotten better. We are in North Carolina
I enjoy your stuff thank you. I was wondering can you even come close to plain with the 60 HP or have you tried ?
Not when the barge is loaded down. When it's completely empty, it comes close.
Don't forget there's been a rough hurricane in that area. I some people just decided not to build back. 👍
17k??
Dang!
Well done
No warrants! Im guessing?? LMAO
You need a calibrated broomstick for measuring depth (Maybe put a ring of duct tape every 6 inches).
It blew off the roof a couple weeks ago. I need to find another broom ;)
New Iberia, Louisiana
😎
Also those 1.5ft dept waters over mud flats. How sticky is that silt if you ever went in. Dang sorry for the questions
It seems that when the water never fully leaves it mud flat exposed, it's fairly solid (enough to walk around on) but the tidal areas where the mud is exposed for a while, that can get deep and sticky. Like swallow you up in some places. In Georgia, it was dangerous. You'll see...
