    Hello from California, San Francisco Bay Area. Loving your videos. I have a small 1996 28’ Bayliner 2858 with flybridge. Bayliner a great bang for the buck. Wonderful designed boats. Cannot wait to be able to afford to customize her.

    We love your videos and hope that we might see you this winter in Ft Pierce after you get back on the road in your bus. It is so much fun to follow you guys on the Great Loop. We spend lots of time in our Class A RV, and this summer went to four coasts in Florida, including the Treasure Coast, the Nature Coast, the Forgotten Coast, and the Emerald Coast. We are retired and base our travels out of Ocean City, NJ, where we have a condo. Thanks for sharing all your keen insights and adventures with all of us. Doug and Jan, The Beach Boomers.

      Sounds like a fun summer... Florida is so much easier to travel in during summer, isn't it? If you can tolerate the heat, the parks are wide open.
      When we return from our RVing winter, we'll be returning to the boat in north Florida to resume heading up the ICW. We stopped in Ft. Pierce back in May.

    Can't wait till you reach the great lakes. As we are from lake Erie. Toledo Ohio. We are starting our search for a boat to start our travel of the lakes.

    Thanks for sharing that! Earlier this summer we camped at a marina/RV Park at Ilion, NY on the Erie Canal. As you know you’ll be traveling that same route as part of the loop. Not far from the marina/RV Park we took a nice boat ride on the canal through one of the many locks. We were told by the tour guide that the lock operators talk to each other from lock to lock and won’t let a boat through if they got to the next lock before they should have based on the speed limit on the canal. We can definitely see why you elected to take this journey. Loving your videos!

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We did a canal cruise up there too while RVing... definitely reaffirmed our Great Loop intentions. So looking forward to that segment. Glad you got to enjoy a part of it!

    Love your videos. Great to see you taking your time and enjoying the slow pace. Too many people focus on “getting there” and miss out on the journey.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We're loving our pace.. and getting to enjoy the places we visit as more than just passing through.

  • @GRJannyDempsey

    Talk about the “Lazy River”! This is the way to slow walk America. Enjoy your travels and thanks for bringing us along.

    Titusville and the Space Coast is one of my favorite places on Earth and I had been waiting for this video! Glad you guys enjoyed it!

    Enjoyed the time lapse cruising very much!

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you're enjoying the time lapse, seems to be a fun way to share the actual cruising without making the videos hours long :)

  • @utlancem

    Absolutely love the videos. Have been following along from the start of the Great Loop. Enjoy watching them all. Hope to do it ourselves someday!

  • @kend3900

    Love your videos! Thanks for doing what you do... I live in the central Florida area so the places you are visiting in Florida are quite familiar to me.

    Really loved this vid. Realize this is effort for you guys, but please keep it up? Luv watching these and "joining" you on your adventure.

  • @lindacluney446
    @lindacluney446 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice. You guys make cruising look so eaay, which I am sure is not quite the case. Still great to come along from my YT viewpoint.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks... on good days, it is easy. It's all those other days too :).

    Loved the update. Relaxed into your time lapses with wonderful 'traveling' music. 😌

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We're kinda digging the time lapses too... great way to capture more of the cruising without producing hour long videos :)

  • @chrisb4840
    @chrisb4840 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love your content packed videos with tips and tricks, but also loved to see and hear about your travels. We hope to make it to Florida from MN this winter, but we wont have a boat, so this was fun to see. 10 minute Max is usually my attention span, but I watched the whole thing!

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching... we're hard pressed to fit much of anything in 10 minutes :D

    When we did one of our Great Road Trips, we stopped at the Space Coast and did the Kennedy Space Center VIP Tour. This got us into the Vehicle Assembly Building. I was impressed.
    My husband had worked in the Apollo Missions and had ridden elevators (past a Fully assembled Saturn V Rocket) to the Roof of the VAB (complete with lightning rods every few feet). He wasn't nearly as impressed just standing in the floor looking up.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh wow.. what amazing experiences! We've never been in the VAB, we'll need to look up that tour sometime. And how cool your hubby worked in the Apollo Missions.

    • @LisaMarli
      @LisaMarli 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Note the VAB is only open when they aren't doing something in there. We were there when it was (sadly) not assembling something. So it really is a matter of timing. But with family in the area, at least you have a reason to visit often. And yeah, my sister in law lives in Jupiter, so driving up the coast to I10 made sense.
      Great Road Trips would happen when we have someplace we need to go, then add all the fun stuff that lets us see America. "We're in the car, we have a tank full of gas. Hit it."

    We were just at New Smyrna Beach last month. Beautiful beach and not super crowded.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is so beautiful! We only made it to the actual beach twice, but loved the historic city area so much.

  • @mikewalker1081
    @mikewalker1081 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've fished the Haulover canal many times, and kayaked it at night for the bioluminescence. Glad to see you around there. I haven't tried parking lot 13 yet, aka, the nude beach, too bashful I guess, also, my dermatologist would have fit!

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's why we got up early and were there in the very early morning (and I, Cherie, wore my sun jacket when NOT in the water ;) )

    First video of yours I've watched - pointed here from another cruisers channel. Good production - loved the time lapsed and drone shots.
    Enjoyed seeing the 'local' neighborhood. We're still new to cruising - in our 'training' year. Moored at Harbortown Marina on the Canaveral Barge Canal on Merritt Island. We've cruised from the Dragon in the south (Did you know the new owners of that property on the point are going to build a new dragon?) to the Mosquito Lagoon in the north. Love the manatees at Haul Over. Next step in 'training' is an over night up to New Smyrna Beach. Trip down to Key West in Spring of 2019 is our 'graduation' exam.

  • @jb6249

    Next in several years, get a Nordhavn and go around the world, you two would rock!

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Crazily enough, at this point - blue water passages don't overly appeal to us. When RVing, we love our water views. When boating, we love our land views :)

    • @jb6249
      @jb6249 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have done lots of research and they have great rep. they are not cheap but built to last a life time. You can spend as much as you want but can also find many at a reasonable price. 300-400k.
      Only dreams , the wife not a boat kind of girl.

    • @southjerseysound7340
      @southjerseysound7340 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nordhavn's are great but a motor sail or sailboat is still king of the passage making.

  • @thomassaint
    @thomassaint 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yep, watched too late due to my own travels, but would love to order a shirt, if you guys decide a second order is a good idea. Thanks for the videos.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry you missed the ordering window :( Not sure we'll do them again - we honestly didn't like having to be all 'promotional' about it. Just not our style. Much more fun to just share.

    Hi guys, love your vid's we are boaters also and usually down in the Keys two or three times a year. We want to be live aboards some day. Nude beaches been there and love them L.S. resorts are the best.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We loved the Keys.. well, except for that pesky hurricane.

    Hi, my wife and I are in the preliminary stages of our Loop Dream. Please tell us how hot is gets in the cabin on a 90 degree sunny day. Do you need to run the A/C constantly on these days/nights as well or does the ocean breeze eventually provide some relief? TY

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on a lot of factors. During the day, usually running at least 2 ACs. At night, it might cool down enough to not need it - especially if at anchor and swinging with the winds.

  • @CanonNovice
    @CanonNovice 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well done again. Where was the 90 degree draw bridge? We have one left in Ft. Lauderdale over New River.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      This one was heading north out of Titusville. We did have to wait in FTL for the train bridge to go down when we docked at the city marina earlier this year. They are beautiful bridges!

  • @BKKKevin
    @BKKKevin 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Have you set a monthly budget for marina stays?... It would seem with your boat size you would be paying about $100 a night at transient rates?

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Indeed, nightly marina costs are pretty high - usually $60-150/night for our vessel. We avoid them when we can (such as this trip - all free anchoring). Instead, we utilize weekly and monthly stays when we find interesting cities to explore, which makes it much more affordable (and gives us a better life balance). We're usually staying around a grand a month that way by balancing it out.

  • @LadyRickie
    @LadyRickie 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Done my first long weekend nomading at Historic Reesor Ranch. Trying the bench in my van to sleep on. how did you keep nosey people looking in wandering around your home away from home.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We try to seek out secluded spots where folks won't have reason to approach.

    • @LadyRickie
      @LadyRickie 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Still does not work at a ranch. Was secluded.

    • @Technomadia

      If there's people wandering around your camper.. that's not secluded :)

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, we have a couple on board... used them over the evening to enjoy our sunset. But doesn't keep them from coming in through cracks and stuff however (not for indoor use).

  • @BohemianBusOdyssey
    @BohemianBusOdyssey 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    We are actually nudists and finding places as we travel to continue this has been some thing we are looking forward to. Nude beaches or resorts and of course Burns either regional or Black Rock.

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We do love burns for the expectation that any dress code goes.

    • @BohemianBusOdyssey
      @BohemianBusOdyssey 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Technomadia we also love burns for the art and atmosphere. We try to include the 10 principles as much as we can in every day life. Well the decommodification is hard when you have your own brand. Lol

    In Bulgaria most beaches are clothing optional and its great although seeing my girlfriends mother topless was a bit of a surprise. Needless to say I regret not marrying her lol.

    • @josephharris2718
      @josephharris2718 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Only thing better than a topless beach is a nude beach. The only reason I pass up a topless or clothing optional area is if it is too cold not because of the possibility of seeing someone I know.

  • @kathywilliams1544
    @kathywilliams1544 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    These videos are cool but I get the feeling by some of the facial expressions that there is more stress than they are letting on. This is a great lifestyle but by no means "free and easy".

    • @Technomadia
      @Technomadia  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, we were coming out of a very stressful period of time - we've been upfront and honest about it all.
