    You two are living the dream of thousands if not millions of your viewers. Dreamt of doing this with friends at 19, but love was in the air and 50 years later we watch you and dream. Thanks for all of it,

    I am a proud patreon of them which means I give them a couple bucks for each video to show my appreciation for their work. Trust me when I say that it is a lot harder to make these videos than you think. It's one thing to shoot it, but a whole different story to sit down and piece it together, edit, cut, add music, voice overs and have a final product that is so enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work and tell Jetty I said, ruff.

    When you get your new boat, be sure to go back to the Dry Tortguas in late April. There will be thousands of nesting Sooty Terns and Brown Noddies as well as migrant birds. It is a totally different area at that time with the thousands of birds present. Sierra will love it, even Billy will love it!

    My wife and I have really enjoyed watching your adventure. Tula's Endless Summer is my favorite "TV show" now : ) We lived on our boat for the last 2 years and just moved into our new home in Cape Coral and keep our boat out back. If you guys are headed up the West Coast, please stop by, we'd love to take you two out for dinner - seriously - please take us up on it, we'd love to meet you both. You can dock Adrenaline nearby, do laundry, etc. - no charge. Happy Sailing - BJ & Heather

    Nice video Sierra & Bill! 16 million bricks were used to construct Fort Jefferson. They also used crushed and cooked shells to mix in with the mortar in between the bricks.
