  • When life knocks you down. Go sailing. Still lots of boat repair, but I also sail Ensenada Mexico and up to San Diego and the channel Islands. It's fun to have a taste of cruising life. Also a surprise announcement.
    Thanks for joining my on my adventure as I restore a hurricane damaged PDQ Antares 44 Catamaran. Come along as I learn about fiberglass repairs, and everything else I need to know to live my dream and cruise the world.
    Special Thanks to:

    Brian, I prefer your channel to any of the big TH-cam channels. You are 100% real, and I am here for it. I can relate to you and your experience more than other channels. Please know you make a difference and motivate others. Thank you, and keep your chin up and the wind in your sails sir.

    Out of all the sailing channels that I follow I have to say that I do like yours the best Bryan . There is an element of realness that you can’t duplicate and it comes through in your videos. I do hope everything works out for you and whatever you were going through. I too am inspired by your hard work as many others that watch and follow along are as well .. Keep the dream alive !! Best of luck my friend. Cliff

    Gday Bryan,
    Like you I’m a projects guy. When you throw in a dose of life on top of all the effort to get ahead on your chosen path, it’s easy to get burnt out. You’ve taken on a lot in challenging times and man you are styling! It may not seem it at your end at times, but from an outsider looking in I’m really impressed.
    At 54, I’m looking towards retirement and there’s got to be an adventure their waiting. You are inspiring and good on you for getting out there and giving yourself a recharge.
    Be kind to yourself Bryan. Take it one day at a time.
    When I’m “knee deep” in a project and starting to feel it. I remind myself,
    “If it was easy, everyone would be doing it”
    All the very best to you and yours,
    Cheers 🍻

    For some reason your channel didn't show up on my feed so I'm missed a bunch of video's well at least now I get to catch up. We all need to get re-energized with what where passionate about in life. If you don't life become mundane. Its difficult as it is, without following your dreams.

    Brian
    My biggest thing that has always gotten me by when things looked the worst was to start a project I had no time for. Suddenly I had something to occupy my mind and while working the project, I would think things out. Somewhere in the middle of the project what was before a problem now had solutions. Having followed this crazy guy as he brought back engines in his luggage. Watch him figure out fiberglass work and share his knowledge and then give us lessons on life with episodes about never giving up and following the dream. We have decided his twisted sense of humor was refreshing. Do you think we are going anywhere? Take some time, after all life is just that, life. And remember, there is always tomorrow.
    At 64, I'm working on rebuilding the mast on my boat in the Columbia river, watching this video. I think back over my life and offer this advice. Problems only last a small time. Life is long, pay attention to the longer one. Solve the short ones and move on.

Batteries recharging and in two months you´ll be at full speed back in track! "The plan is: the plan will change" I´ll write it down for personal use :D And remember: A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to. You´ll arrive where you want to be, promise! Take care amigo
