BIG WAVES CROSSING THE NORTH ATLANTIC | Putting our Production Sailboat to the Test - Ep 99

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ส.ค. 2022
- We continue our west to east Atlantic crossing. We depart from the Azores Portugal Islands and head for the United Kingdom/Europe sailing in the biggest waves and seas we've ever encountered in our monohull sailboat. The winds, waves and current make this offshore passage very demanding and aim us off our intended destination.

Fellow Canadian sailor here. Boat presently in the Caribbean. So glad I found your channel. Very real and honest. Love it!!!
To quote Gordon Lightfoot🇨🇦, From his song The Edmund Fitzgerald.
"Does anyone know where the love of God goes , when the big waves turns minutes to hours"
Your outer casing of your job line is the strongest and protection facture.
Sailor of forty years and spent 4 years in my youth as a merchant marine. On a 120 tugboat pulling hundreds of thousands ton barges, from Vancouver BC to Alaska in the beginning of January. We were tied up for three days because if a massive storm. We had to leave because of the cost factor . We got out to open the ocean in the Pacific with 80 foot swells. Our tugboat from water to chimney stack was 65 feet, and we were getting buried when in the trough of the swell. We were worried that our stack was going to get swamped and stall our engines. We had 2 1,500 HP engines and could only make 3 knots. So I know the feeling.
You're the only channel that takes us right along in the boat with you. So accurate and realistic that I was getting a little sea sick, lol. Super episode! Keep it up
Love to hear it. It’s exactly what we were trying to capture!
Check out Peter Lawless, outstanding Irish solo sailer!
B😮y
😫
The slo-mo on the waves really gives a sense of how big the seas are. Alot of times the camera doesn't capture the magnitude of the waves, but you guys did a great job. Have fun, be safe.
I love sailing down wind like that, you go up the wave then speeds up z-zzzzzzzz down the wave. Great vid. Yall are champs
after your Ireland/UK excursion i would recommend to sail down to Portugal, Spain, Gibraltar and then do the African north coast, Morocco, Tunesia.... you would regret staying the winter in the north freezing your butts off, also the visa timing could catch ya....
Not sure if you have any sailing experience Truth Hurts … but you cannot ‘cruise’ the coasts of Morocco and Tunisia. Sorry if the truth hurts 🤷♂️
@@malcolmbullock4297 sure thing dude....th-cam.com/video/hLgSZD44cX4/w-d-xo.html
I don't know man the Baleric Islands are nice. Might want to stop there too
So refreshing to see YT sailors actually checking the weather and re routing rather than sailing direct into bad weather and oh no what drama the auto pilot broke catastrophic 😅 🤙🏼
Glad you enjoyed the video. Not sure why anyone wouldn’t check the weather and reroute accordingly and if possible but we’re fortunate the auto pilot didn’t break! We’ve had that happen on passage and it does suck!
Wow! So impressed with you guys. Great video, what a true journey! Looking forward to more. Stay safe! 🌻❤️
Thank you!😊
You just convinced me I'll need to keep shrink tubing onboard as emergency cover for chafed sheets.
you guys are so cool...and you both are a great team & lucky to have each other !
You guys are the best. Very down to earth and real. It's nice to watch a sailing vlog where they actually sail instead of doing repairs all the time, or just anchored all the time.
Means a lot to us! And yep we like to keep moving!!
Travis is so clever. Love his solution for lee bunk. One solution for a frayed line is slide a long section of heat shrink over the bad spot.
You're in the Faroes now according to a comment. I'm paying more attention to you now, my fellow Canucks! Thank you.
" Just remember I'm where your dreams started and where you've gotten to." Thoughts? This is the first video I've watched with this man. I hope I'm going to enjoy it.
post II: Sea Sickness: Ginger, always helped me. Started sucking on ginger slices a few days before sail and continue while sailing.
Welcome to Europe. Greetings from Spain.
Nothing like testing conditions to draw out the seaman/woman and gain confidence with your vessel. Well done getting to where you were going
So amazing! Watching the horizon off the bow to see the heel angle. InterSteller for sure. Love how transparent you two are. Great bed rig. Looks like a hotdog bun. Keep going.
Thanks Ken!😊
That taco bed lol
Awesome job guys! Have a ball!
10:30 That has to be the best shot for showing how big the sea is I've ever seen on a sailing channel, absolutely stunning!
It was our favourite shot!! Doesn’t get any better with the sunset in the background!
Guys. A most fabulous episode ‼️ ‼️ In this episode, if one was a sailor or not we could tell the waves were huge. I mean when in the trough and ago you can see in the sky and the horizon disappears, you know the waves are at least 10-15 feet. Have been there and you two handled it like real pros.
B. R. A. V. O. 🎉 🍾 ✨ 🌊💨⛵️🏝👙🌞✨
Thanks Richard! Glad we could capture them to give an idea of their size!
This video absolutely sealed it for me. I am going to get my boat and sail across the ocean. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience. Incredible.
I have a bavaria 49 to sell
Congratulations on your crossing. Looking forward to seeing your upcoming destinations.
Thanks Mathew!
Congrats to you both!! Well sailed, those damned furlers are great until they're not. Think about a hanked on staysail with a downhaul on that lonely inner forestay. Easy to rig and control in most conditions. Enjoy yourselves by taking the time to immerse in the culture and maybe the Guiness! Jeff and Julie s/v Oo La La Westsail 32 #81
Congrats on your safe passage to Ireland! Excited to watch your adventures ahead, SV Jura - Bayfield Ontario.
Thanks Matthew. We’re excited to share what’s to come!
You guys are incredible! Mazel Tov!
Wow, some great shots - very cinematic!
Mr. Toads Wild Ride......You guys are really fun to watch!
Great job capturing the swell.
What an awesome accomplishment. Very inspirational. Great job
Thanks guys!☺️
This channel is under rated. I hope this blows up. Great to see more Canadians out there... Best wishes from Toronto
that means a lot to us to hear, thanks for watching!
Great work Jibseaers!
We were on pins and needles for you guys…So glad a 60ft wave didn’t crash over your stern ripping off your solar and flooding your cockpit forcing you to hold your breath until it drained. I hear it happens all the time😂🤣😂 We’re so happy for you guys and your big adventure!
LOLLLLL.
Super !
Thanks for sharing .
It’s the first I’ve watched you two and like how you are .
Welcome to our channel! Glad to hear you enjoyed. 😊
OMG, that looks frightening. That would be my big fear. Big waves in a small boat. :o
Very good episode. Nice to see you guys experiencing high seas and winds. Just another notch on your experience belt. You guys are doing a great job! I've sailed the Hawaiian Islands for the past 62 years and the swells between channels can get pretty huge. (15-20 feet) You two now have more experience than 95% of the day sailors around the world. I really admire your vigilance in maintaining your boat. Enjoy!
Thanks David! Wow we’d love to make it to Hawaii one day. It’s def on the list! We love it there
Great crossing. Way to travel and voyage as explorers! Have great seas and travels.
Thank you!
Congrats 🥂🥂, you made the big Atlantic crossing. The hostile waves are terrifying. 👍👍to both of you.
Thank you! ♥️
Congratulations on your crossing, just found your channel. Sparkling wine and champagne are the same thing, champagne is differentiated because it comes from the champagne region in France. But other than its origin there's no difference. I look forward to following you
❤️❤️ Went sailing this morning. Thought about you both and your adventure. Stay safe JibSea! Fair winds!
love to hear we were a small part of your adventure!☺️ fair winds to you as well!
Just saw you on a mooring buoy in CTB! Welcome. Hope Kinsale treated you well.
This is a great peninsula for onshore exploring.
Whoa! Those are big rollers...
You've come a long way but now you have to play Gypsy with Jibsea ,wandering at the mercy of the wind.
Holy, you know what, that was a hell of a crossing. I recently found your channel and I found it to be really cool and very realistic. I have to continue binge-watching to get caught up. I want to wish you two the best of luck on your journey, stay safe and have fun!
It was quite the ride! Welcome, glad you found us and are along for the adventure 😆
@@SailingJibsea LOL, I'm just watching your guys' videos right now. I have 2 more years left in Arizona and I'm going to buy a boat and head to the Caribbean. I don't know if I'll be up for crossing oceans but one never knows. I might find someone that's up for the adventure. You guys have come a long way in 2 short years that's very impressive. When I lived in Florida I had a 24-foot cruiser, I've always been around boats, but now the sailing bug has bit me. Nice to meet you maybe we will run into you guys one day. Take care be safe and always have fun. Mike
Congrats! And look at that beautiful Ireland!
Awesome adventure you will never forget this ⛵️⛵️👍
Most definitely not!
I'm so excited to watch your journey around the UK! None of the sailing channels I watch have ever been in that part of the world, so this is really neat to watch! Congrats on completing your first big crossing!! ❤❤
Whoo hoo! We’ve never been there so we’re super excited to be sharing the upcoming adventures!!
Check out Sailing Cadhoa
Loved the exchange at the end. . thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching!☺️
I just found y'all and have already subscribed. I really love how you take us on your trip with you and show the sailing! You're doing a great job. Now to go binge watch all your videos!
That’s awesome, welcome! Thank you very much and hope you enjoy them😄
Groovy episode.
I was in the Army reserves running landing crafts. We were in Hythe (near Southampton) GB in 1987ish. Coming from North Carolina, US, where our tides are app 2 feet, we were very surprised by the huge tides.
Been sailin' nearly 50 years. mostly west coast, Ca, Org, WA, BC, one to Hawaii in 1978 and some in New Zealand. The technology is lightyears past the old day, no AIS, weather apps, satellite.
Hello from Toronto!!!! Getting chilly here....weather looks much more appetizing where you are!
Congratulations guys amazing 👏 ❤️
WOW WOW you two!!! Looks a little scary from our point of view can only imagine YOURS! Congrats to you both on making it to Ireland such an Amazing courageuse journey. ♥️
thanks Karen! ☺️
Hi!!!! First time watching and I have to say it was a great video. Congrats on the crossing also lots of luck and fun to you going forward on your journey. I look forward to seeing what comes next.
All the best
Jersey Lou
Welcome to our channel! Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Amazing crossing
I just bumped in your channel. Beautiful. Subscribed. Liked. Shares. Cheers from Toronto. 🇨🇦
Awesome, welcome! Happy to have a fellow Canadian joining along 🇨🇦
Congratulations on a great passage. Welcome to Europe!
Thank you!
The thing about manifesting you dreams to reality is that YOU are the X factor. You are the only true obstacle to making your own dreams happen. Life happens fast and you either hop on the ride and hold on or you sit on the sidelines and watch others living the life you want to live.
This year my wife and I made our first move from the sidelines to a player in the game with a small 17' Vagabond pocket cruiser for us to learn on, on Lake Champlain. It's been an AMAZING summer on the water and I can't recommend to anyone reading this enough. Do it. Buy that boat that tickles your fancy, fix her up and get out there. Just get out. Trust me. You will not regret it. To team Jibsea. THANK YOU from SV Morning Star for showing us the way here in Vermont!
Where to go? Stick around. Uma had a blast wintering in Northern Europe .
Agreed 💯 %! Congrats on the first move and all the adventures to come!
@@SailingJibsea thank you. Sooooo much fun has been had this summer! You guys always have a boat in Vermont to visit if you ever find yourself back this way!
Great video guys. I liked that you showed the entire journey. Looking forward to what you do next. Regards from Florida.
Thanks John! Excited to share what’s next’
Great video. Dehydration will give you a headache so even if you're seasick continue to drink as much water as you can,,,,
You guys are awesome. Serious chops at this point.
Thanks Thomas!
Very proud of you both , congratulations
Thanks Mike!
Did you steal those sunglasses from your grandmother 😂😂😂
Fair winds ⛵️
Nice to see you arrive safely. I notice you are up in the Faroe Islands! Lucky you! Have fun.
Thanks!
Red is a port lateral mark. Your boat has a handy red light on its port side. So port to port when entering port. Your cockpit enclosure is very impressive.
We’re happy with it, it’s kept us relatively dry and protected!
Awesome. You guys are doing it.
That we are!😆😆
Totally awesome
Welcome to Ireland . Well done !
Love u guys!! U cry, whine and complain.. jz sail and enjoy the ride!! Duuuh!!
Awesome video!
Rustig overtochtje. Leuk man.
Wow Sailor 👍
great one.
You should try a longer trip up the Norwegian coast. A lot of lovely fjords and smal places to visit. Se sailing Uma´s trip up this coast line to get an ide. Love your videos and looking forward to follow your channel.
I love how clean you guys are! LOL!
🧼 😜
It is amazing how a camera does not seems to capture the true size of the waves. Many, many years ago sailed south across Biscay in my 26 foot Contessa. No freeboard, and the waves were towering above me. This is when a camera was a camera and you did not see the results until long after the pictures were taken. I described every detai of my heroic voyage with, wait until you see the pictures. They looked like a gentle day out on the English Channel. Loved your video and Bon Voyage.🙃that was a big wave.
Nice job capturing the wave action... even though I know the camera doesn't do it justice. I'm a fellow Lake Ontario sailor (Rochester, NY) and plan to head out across the Atlantic next year... Azores, then Portugal. Hopefully we'll cross paths somewhere. Keep living the dream!
Never does, does it! That’s awesome, exciting passages upcoming, fair winds!
Steph, you seemed to handle the waves and conditions well, especially since Travis was saying he was terrified, I figured he would purposely sail the boat into the waves 🌊 😂 being the adrenaline junkie he appears to be. ;) 😬🤷♀️. Safe travels
well done guys, thanks for actually being descriptive and including us with the ride rather than 2 seconds of travel and then all about the destination. Much more balanced approach including the debates about your success rates at catching fish, and remembering that you need to drive on the correct side of the lights now that your not in north america lol (Green starbord right)
Its just a shame that the cameras never record the true feeling and look of the ocean, or we could experience some of the seasickness as well! Having done a bit of offshore racing and cruising I can assure everyone that those waves and seas were way bigger and rougher than it looked by a long way!
We figured a passage like that deserved an entire video!😆 happy to hear you enjoyed it and that you can appreciate the size of the waves through the camera lens!
in case you are interested in the med many sailors use turkey too to restart the clock and generally stay there for the winter.
You can't restart the Schengen 90/180 clock. All you can do is reduce the number of days in any 180 day period.
No doubt, some big waves. Good thing that they weren’t breaking too badly. Welcome the Ireland!
Where are the big waves?
@@PaleBlueDotCitizen there indeed are big waves here BUT when you view from a very giant ship from very hi up, the waves don’t LOOK big. Toward the end he did some video from a lower after hatch. That is when you can at least begin to appreciate the size. When I was out in conditions like this in my 13 meter boat and my viewing height was just .8 meters, they looked HUGE. Way way over my head. No they were big. It’s all in how you are viewing them.
Great episode guys, well done!
Thanks Adrian!
Awesome video! Thanks!
Happy to hear you enjoyed it😊
Well done you two stay save
Thank you!
Such a cool thing to take us along with you on your passage😀.. And I. for my last Magnum Opus at age 70, I want to sail East to West across the Atlantic on an old style 150' schooner or tall ship. I want to experience what you two had my romance with the sea and nature and the stars... I probably have a few more years before the physical illness takes over.. One maritime friend here in Maine suggests signing on with a vessel repositioning between say Ireland or England .. France ..Azores ..Canaries and the Caribbean ...I want to do what an ancestor did on the Mayflower (Miles Standish) or my grandpa and grandma C did in the early 20th Century to Ellis Island to start a new way of life in the New World... Oh and enJoy
Ireland .. what a beautiful island nation..
Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you have a chance to get out there, whichever you decide to choose, all sound like great options!
fine little thing like that u the man!!
You had a very good footage of the big waves, often it does not show on cameras. This is what you can experience at long stretches of oceans, the boat is floating, just try to prevent broaching. All well and u arrived at the old world.... Me just sailing around in Norwegian costal waters at the moment (retired and 72).
Yeah! It’s really difficult to capture on camera but glad we could do it some justice!
Congratulations on your voyage.
Thank you!😊
congrats! Well done!
Thanks!!
really cool video, I especially liked the camera work, nice scenary and explenations
Thanks! Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Amazing adventure🎉
🎉
Congrats ,it's amazing what you 2 have accomplished ,Cheers from Oshawa
Thanks Chris!!
Awesome all the best 🙏🏽 🌞 👍🏾.. I heard you mention Grenada I am from Grenada but live in the US I hope you guys had fun in Grenada it's a beautiful beautiful Island💙🌞
Good.
Wow, great crossing, after you have finished with Ireland you should come up the Bristol Channel, you can then stop off in Swansea, Cardiff and then come up the river Avon into Bristol under the Clifton Suspension Bridge.....
Thanks for the recommendations!
Well done!
Thanks!
