    Trevor and I love watching your videos... informative as well as entertaining. We bought our first (and only) sailboat, an Endeavour 32, a few years back. We scoped out TH-cam in the hopes of learning more about our boat and guess who showed up! It's been a real joy for us to travel with you and your family both on and off the water.

    I really want that kind of water and those scrubby flat islands. 🤣🤣 I can hardly wait, I just know it's going to be awesome ! 😁👍

    I’m constantly impressed by what a great attitude Molly has. My kids would have mutinied years ago and left me on a rock somewhere. Great videos. They always brighten my day.

      We’ll all find out soon. Hopefully there’s a correlation between the two. Happy you think so highly of me.

      Will do. I’m finalizing the first book now. Making one last pass through it now as time allows, editing, formatting, etc. Also finishing the cover design. Won’t be much longer. Heck of a project, but I’m enjoying it.

    I remember in my teenage years I was on a big yacht with some experienced crew and we found ourselves in a heck of a gale; just getting blasted. It was some really tough sailing. We had no idea what anchorage if any was going to afford some safety and rest. We were able to get a boat at anchor in a cove about 20 miles away and he told us, "don't worry just get here. It's heaven." And it was. Flat super calm anchorage in 10 feet of crystal blue water. We all just sat in awe. Until someone said, "what if we didn't make it and we actually are in heaven?"

    As always, fun to watch. I've been in the creative side of life's experience for many years. I must give you credit for your book project and for the way you are going about publishing and reviewing. It takes a great deal of courage to lay your creative results out for the world to judge, criticize or enjoy.. As you say, you will succeed as you enter this new world. Good luck to you and am looking forward to reading what you have created.

    Could you go over the cost and how to pay for visiting the Exuma Cays Land and Sea National Park?

      $20/day paid to the park boat that goes around collecting.

    looking forward to purchasing your first book when it comes out. Another great video. Love the Westsail 42 (and the Westsail 32). just wondering if you have had any success with the wind vane yet? Keep up the excellent work Ben.

      I haven't even tried using it.
      The CPT auto is so easy and convenient that I haven't found the motivation to bother with the Monitor yet.

    Does Molly make any money on purchases from the site?

      She does. That photos are available for sale and the money goes to her.

    Hey Ben, are there any books on amazon right now and how do i find them? Your name?

    • @Sailboatstory
      @Sailboatstory  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Technically, yes - but it's not ready for promotion.
      It's a kids riddle book.
      I'm reworking the cover and a few interior elements.
      The ones I need help with are my larger 35k word books.
      Still, you're certainly welcome to search and take a look at that one if you like.

      She's happy with her role and does help out a ton with a variety of things.
      It's great having that kid onboard with us.
      Loving these days with her.

    Thanks for the humour (and the sailing). Who said you Yanks have no sense of humour?

      An understandable perspective.

    I tried to go look at Molly's pictures but the web address you gave is not working.
    I started watching your videos when you first bought the sand flee
    I have watched every video you have put on youtube and have enjoyed every one of them.
