Here's to my 430 Subs !!! 👍😁🥹🍺🍻 💥 Thanks for watching 😎😎 500 is in sight To the rest of you Swabs 🤨🤨 What are you waiting for ??? 🥺 🥺 JOIN THE ODYSSEY !!! 😄😄
I enjoyed the video. This reminded me of the time that I taught myself how to sail on a 9 foot Snark. I didn't know anyone that sailed, hadn't read a book on it, had never touched a sailboat. When I first inquired about the little boat I thought it was some strange looking canoe. The guy had the mast, rudder, and dagger board in his shop. I learned how to sail it by trial and error.... lots of errors. Nearly knocked myself out with the boom. Good thing it wasn't much of a boom. Dad filmed the entire fiasco with a shoulder mounted recorder, the technology back in those days. lol.
Sounds awesome, you should dig up the old footage and post it. We had a shoulder fired RCA but I didn't start sailing till 40 LOL. I'm thinking about wearing my motorcycle helmet next time I go out 😄😂😅
Nice, love that you left in the beginning and the wind graphic. I keep daydreaming about one of these to take out instead of a canoe when the admiral wants to use her paddleboard, but already got a boat on a trailer plus that canoe so feels like that might be a bit much.
Agree. Dinghies are dirt cheap. I have four of them, and they are a blast. Especially the planing dinghies. You catch about a 10 to 12 knot breeze and suddenly you're flying over the top of the water. I took my Cyclone to Lake Rhodhiss in October of 22. There was a stiff breeze out of the west which put me on a dead run and I covered four miles in about 15 minutes.
That was awesome! It brought back memories of sailing sunfish as a kid. In fact that was the first boat people let me take out on my own without stealing it. I think that's why I love sailing to this day! We need more content Jason! Do you still have your other boat? Thanks for taking us along!....⛵⛵⛵
I have a benetou wizz and it is a blast. These little race boats are a lot of work but well worth it. If you can sail a small race boat you can sail anything. Id love to try out a hobie 16 or 18.
Yeah, they keep you on your toes for sure. I sail on lakes a lot so it's almost always gusty. I've been looking for a deal on a Hobie myself. I've never sailed one but I know it would be fun.

Looks like y'all had a lot of fun!
You have a good eye. The little boat looks funny behind the van but love the simplicity. Thanks:
Ha Ha, when I'm towing it, I can't see it at all. I just have to "believe" it's still back there.
That sunfish looks like fun!
Yes Sir ... A feisty little boat she is ⛵

Enjoyed this, I picked up an old Sunfish for free, cleaned it up , trying to decide if I am up to sailing it a 69 years old.
Nice, They're a lot of fun but they do provide quite a workout sometimes.

Well Joe . . . You can't have too many boats 😃 One for each day of the week seems reasonable 😆

Of course I still have my other boat⛵️ we belong together 💕😎
well done Jason!!! One day we will meet on the water, hopefully to catch a few good fish and winds :)
Hey, Thanks 😃 Maybe I'll round the cape and pick you up for a sail. Good luck with your channel😎
@@odysseyofjason thanks and good luck to you to

It’s good it’s good it’s good.
Ha . . . I like what you did there 😏
As someone that started sailing about the same time I can tell you this. Let the sail flap and turn the boat into the wind to take off
Yeah, It took a while but I eventually figured it out.
@@odysseyofjason And looked like a pro before it was all said and done. Great video. You have made a subscriber of me.
@@csisk 😃NICE !!! 😃 Thanks for the Sub 👍
Just one thing brother….ditch the plastic water bottle. They just end up in the lake.
For every one I take out ... I'll bring back 3 😎
Going for the water bottle is how I get more wind. It never fails. As soon as I pick up the bottle and unscrew the cap a big gust hits.
