    This is by far my favorite sailing channel. You guys have quite a life at your age and wish you nothing but the best in the future! You're a lucky man Billy. Sierra always seems so happy and goofy and ready for anything. Be safe and looking forward to your next adventure!

    For sandy clams, make a cold water bath with cornmeal in it, and let them soak in it for 1-2 hours. They'll eat the cornmeal and pass out the sand. works for steamers up in Maine / Boston area. Then, steam them till they open. I usually dunk them in the broth (in a mug), then warm melted butter, and next stop is my mouth. :)

      Indeed very nice. Also with spagetti. After cleaning and unsanding🤪, garlic, pepper, and cocosmilk, put the shells in and let steam for a while, till they are all open. Put the cooked spagetti over and mix well. Bon appetite

    Clams need a day in seawater to flush out the sand.The first one had a neck,which makes it a clam,probably a cockle. They are delicious without the sand!

    We call those butter clams. You keep them in a bucket for a day or two and they will pure the sand and mud. Then a day in the bucket with corn meal. Steam them and serve with drawn butter with a good bit of garlic. Yum.

    At 5:04, with the sails in front of the sun, this is the tattoo Jordan (Project Atticus) has on his left forearm. It is just a round circle with the outline of a mainsail. Ya know, it is okay if you two get a tattoo - you've probably earned a Swallow or two by now. :¬) Webhead USA

  • @davidnichols147
    @davidnichols147 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In our Exuma travels under, we found what the natives call "Buttery lucine" which resembles a clam. Other finds were Prickly cockle whose shell was scallop like. We found the season for harvesting these were in the Cruising Guide. Believing the months of February through May but don't tie us to the dates. Otherwise, if you allow this shelled object to rest in cornmeal until the sand is filtered out, *(approximately 24hrs) the sand may be flushed? Sorry about Jack, I'm sure he is in a good home since you both donated towards the abundant Homeless dog population in the Bahamas. Excellent episode, this channel is best for content and cinematography/editing we have found on Utube Sailing.

  • @hectorcyre7664
    @hectorcyre7664 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey guys. Did you not learn to purge clams, cockles, etc of sand using corn meal or another similar ground meal when you were cruising up here in the PacNW? All you have to do is put the shellfish in a pail of seawater with the meal and give them a day or two, changing the water every six to eight hours so the O2 in the water is replenished. The shellfish get largely if not totally sand free within two days, three at the most. Been doing it all my life, and it really works. My theory is that, by eating the meal, they also put on weight, sort of like corn finishing a beef that has fed solely on grass. We don't even consider eating clams and cockles without giving them a day or two in the pail to clean out the sand.

  • @joelbrown4110
    @joelbrown4110 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I think those are clams and cockles. Scallops usefully have wings in the shell near the hinge, the ridges are deeper, and are flatter.

  • @michaelsleater5865
    @michaelsleater5865 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    You can use cold fresh water with cornmeal to purge the sand from your shellfish. Usually I let them go overnight. They'll pass the sand w/ the cornmeal.

    @BrainSquishy 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    So about the bugs... why is it that no sailing channels mention using Thermacell bug repellent?
    Here in Muskoka, Ontario we get hoards of mosquitoes in the spring and summer. I can get 200 come into my cruiser in minutes at dusk but the Thermacell will kill every on in 10 minutes. Some times I will just drop a pad onto a tin plate on the stove to activate it. Magic a d safe.
    Love your channel.

    For the clams, fry garlic and cilantro in olive oil then add the clams until they are open. That's the Portuguese style.
    And of course, leave them in a saltwater bucket/basin for several hours to get rid of the sand.

    I have been following you Billy for many years and I'm very happy about your success in living your life as a 'boatman". I don't know if you're aware of the recent news story about an American couple missing in the Caribbean after fugitives allegedly stole their yacht.
    My question to you is.........what sort of security measures do you use to protect yourself from harm? Thanks again for all the hard work you put into your videos, I enjoy them immensely.

  • @TheAtma50
    @TheAtma50 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I clean my shell fish by soaking them in fresh water overnight with a fist full of porridge oats, they eat the oats and and self clean. when cooking I add a drop of white wine and cream and serve with french bread and beer. I sometimes even share ... but only sometimes!! ... I hope ye found Jack and ye can report that Jetty and he are still friends keeping in touch by K9 webcams. Learning to work without relying instruments is a great idea for those occasions that you described, I turn off our electricity supply occasionally to remind us just how good we have it in life and give the kids the sense of what it was like to live back in the dark ages when I was a kid, that and when I need some peace from their music! 😉 Great video and wonderful story telling... Stay Safe & Fair Winds!! ☘

    Watching Sierra cleaning off all the dead bugs. Some people, living the life, might think this is such an inconvenience and hassle.
    Then, flashing back to all the backbreaking tedium and hard work you guys put in with Mountain Myst also knowing that your daily lives require you to produce this high quality content to share for the internet monster.
    Have been along for the ride since Neverland. Good thing too since I haven't gotten out there as much as I would like lately. Love the new boat, your improvements and learning about the features that make your sailing more enjoyable and safer.

    The kids are grown, and starting their own chapters in life.
    We are selling our ranch in NY, and heading south. We have been doing a lot of research, and really like the lagoon 380.
    It's coming together, and only a matter of time before we start our latest chapter.
    Thank you, & Safe travels.
