    Used to be, that if a woman jumped topless from the Willy T, she'd be awarded a tee shirt. That's no longer a tradition?
    You ARE living dangerously in the Caribbean in October, just sayin.' Your Lads at Nanny Cay lived through Irma. They know a thing or two. It takes a village to secure a "gringo."
    We are so happy for your Rangers!! (Huge Rays fans here.)

    We were there in September 2022 and most everything was closed down. We also had a tropical storm graze us and keep us tied up in Road town for a day. It was HOT! with lots of Sargasso weed but not crowded at all. Still had a great time.

    I just landed a position as captain on a Aquila 54 and I am soaking up all your videos. Found the same two problems you had on your boat concerning uninsulated pipes in the crew quarters and under the pilot house console. I plan on fixing those asap! Just really like all the beneficial information I have learned about these particular vessels from your experience. I hope someday to see you in a harbor on your 54, I will be sure to buy you a cocktail for all you have taught me!

    Sometimes, watching the nonstop beauty of mother nature, it's easy to forget about her other side. Glad you guys were safe and it's beautiful to see the new skills of the deckhands taking shape. And oh yes, the joy of boys being boys. Fantastic adventures and thank you so much for allowing us to be a part.
    P.S. Holycow what a gorgeous sunset that previous evening.

    Missed you Capt. Good seeing you back in action. I like how you check the sea strainers as part of you of departure list.
    You do an excellent job in instructing guests how the basic line handing is all about.
    Here's a guest story for you. During a side tie ( carpet liners) as we call guests .There job was to throw the bow anchor out. BUT it was not attached to the boat . HAA.... It wasn't mine!!!!! Enjoy your journeys. Hope to have a Gar with you some day.

    I just found your channel. My cruiser is on the hard. I appreciate the information on Mooring & Marine Max. I've been to the Bahamas, Hawaii, etc. I've not been to the BVI. I fast forward to this episode cause I didn't know if you view old messages. Thank you. 🦜

    Best video yet, Alan! Loved all the underwater stuff while y'all were snorkeling. The girl next to the Willy-T wasn't bad either! Cracked up at Wellsy with his pink noodle. 😀 Keep the videos a-commin'! They don't suck. (And GO RANGERS!)

    Go Rangers!!! With the help of your amazing videos we are going to be back in the BVI Dec, Jan and Feb. You should be getting a commission from the BVI for your efforts. We are looking for a good day charter company for trips while we are in port. Any suggestions? We are wanting to get back up to Bitter End for the amazing breakfast.

    • @thewanderinghillbilly
      @thewanderinghillbilly  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      that's awesome! I'll be there in Jan! thanks for watching

    Alan, I have to know. Why BVI and not USVI. Other than the obvious, what is the difference and why you prefer BVI?
    Thanks, keep them coming!!

  • @alanrussell8658

    Exactly the “local knowledge” I was looking for. Looked much better than the forecast modeling on PredictWind. We’ll be back after Thanksgiving.
    Go Rangers!

    Hey Alan, am a new subscriber of this channel from India & love your videos❤. Saw some of your earlier vids too….looks absolutely fantastic👍.
    Sorry if it sounds silly, but Just one question that bothers me - seeing how often you & your guests jump in the water, aren’t you all worried about any possible sharks around?

    • @thewanderinghillbilly
      @thewanderinghillbilly  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No sharks in the BVI. Bahamas is a different story!

    What is the normal protocol with the help you received from the locals in the harbour, with the attention to making your boat safe, ie tipping etc etc ???.

    • @thewanderinghillbilly
      @thewanderinghillbilly  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well I pay a boat manager to make this happen! Thank you

    Didn't notice until this video, very nice "cat" dink? Like it? Posted before, but we had it even more to ourselves in August, wonder why? 😂 We had a 46' power cat, and it was a lot rougher than what you had but the cat handled it fine, however I had no idea the charter company turns the engines down (limits speed/rpm), so instead of outrunning our weather issue, we basically had to slog through it at 12-14 knots. 🤨

    Sorry if my comment got deleted by you or TH-cam for posting a link of our day at Soggy Dollar. Wished we could have met on the 25th. I wanted to meet you. I posted the link to my video only to get your critique of it. Sorry if I broke protocol. It wasn’t my intent to hijack. Maybe we will meet one day but I will be back to the BVI. Amazing islands.
