    An old sea captain was sitting on a bench near the wharf when a young man walked up and sat down. The young man had spiked hair and each spike was a different colour … green, red, orange, blue, and yellow.
    After a while the young man noticed that the captain was staring at him.
    “What’s the matter old timer, never done anything wild in your life?”
    The old captain replied, “Got drunk once and married a parrot. I was just wondering if you were my son!”

    You guys didn't fulfill the American Dream for yourself but the International Dream, watched the interior tour when it randomly popped up on my TH-cam and then watched a few newer videos here and there before deciding to start at Step 1 about 6 days ago, I am now all caught up. I can say you guys have definitely made it, from leaving with $20 bucks in your pocket to comfortably traveling the world while beautifully documenting it. Great job!

    What I've always appreciated about your videos is the longer cuts of sailing. The temptation to 3-second cuts in a series is just what everybody else does, and now you're doing it, too. The longer segments are joy. People who love sailing do not have the short attention span that the 3-sec edits would assume. We are not bored. Let us settle into the moments.

    Love you guys!
    Oldie but a goodie:
    Dead ahead, through the pitch-black night, a captain sees a light on a collision course with his ship.
    Reaching for the radio, he says: “Change your course ten degrees east.”
    “Change yours ten degrees west,” comes the reply.
    The captain responds, “I’m a navy captain! Change your course, sir!”
    “I’m a seaman second class,” the next reply comes back. “Change your course, sir.”
    The captain is furious. “I’m a battleship! I’m not changing course!”
    The man replies, “I’m in a lighthouse. Your call.”
    Love from Ottawa!

    You guys really need to go to Faroe Islnads! I would love to see your cinematography of them.
    The joke (not really a joke, true story):
    We were sailing from Iceland to Faroe Islands during a night, rain was pouring down, wind was strong, big waves, so we had our motor on to allow us to keep sailing upwind. I was sleeping in my captain's bunk and woke up to a motor dropping revs few times. I thought that the crew on the night shift kicked the engine control (it was positioned really badly), so I yelled "what the hell are you doing". Next thing I see and hear is my 3rd mate running (I mean really running fast) down below, soaking wet, looks me in the eyes and says: we are sinking.
    That didn't seem surprising since our yacht was taking some water (nothing serious, but who knows), so I got up, woke up the rest of the crew (10 people on board), and I asked the 3rd mate whether the engine is under water already. He said: don't know, will check, and he went to check. I ordered everyone to take as much clothes as they can, 2nd mate to take some food, started undoing the EPIRB and then the 3rd mate came back and said the engine is dry, no water there. Then I noticed that our fuel pump (pumping fuel frome the keel up to a smaller tank above the engine) was off. I turned it on and told them to lower the revs for 5 minutes and we are good.
    I sat down and started shaking from the adrenaline. 3rd mate noticed and asked what's happening to me. I told him I thought we have to evacuate because you told we were sinking. He froze for a second and started laughing so hard I thought he will just collapse. He yelled to the crew on shift in the cockpit: he thougth we were sinking! and I heard another 2 poeple laughing their asses of.
    He looked at me and he said: I told that it's not us changing the revs, not that we are sinking.
    You have to start wondering how the hell you could misheard that. Well, in Polish "That's not us" is "to nie my". "we are sinking" is "toniemy".
    I was 23 years old at the time and got my fair share of gray hair for that little stroy :P

    An apprentice tug boat crewmen was in the wheelhouse with the Captain as the tug passed by another tug the Captain yelled out AYE then tooted the horn, the other tug Captain did the same.
    The young apprentice asked his Captain what’s that all about? Captain said it’s an old tradition, dates back to the Bible, an Aye for an Aye and a Toot for a Toot

    The sailor noticed that the pirate had a peg leg, a hook, and an eye patch. He asked, “so, how did you end up with the peg leg?”
    The pirate replied, “we were in a storm at sea, and I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. Just as my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off.”
    “Wow!” exclaimed the sailor. “How did you get that hook?”“Well,” replied the pirate, “we boarded an enemy ship and were battling the other sailors with swords. One of them cut off my hand.”“Incredible!” remarked the sailor. “How did you get the eye patch?”“A seagull dropping fell into my eye,” replied the pirate.“You lost your eye to a seagull dropping?” the sailor asked in surprise.“Well,” said the pirate, “it was my first day with the hook.”

    There was a guy on shore, had a bucket full of fish. Park Ranger came up, wanted to see his fishing license.
    Fisherman says, "Oh, I'm not fishing, these are my pet fish. I bring them down to let them swim around a bit every couple of days."
    "How does that work?, said the ranger.
    "Well, I just pour the fish in like this and after a while they come back."
    "So, they just come back and jump in the bucket?
    "Yes, sir"
    "This I've got to see" says the ranger rolling his eyes.
    After a few minutes of chatting the Ranger asks, " how long do the fish swim around before they come back? "
    "What fish?
    Cheers!

    This is not a sailor story but will interest you. The Cutty Shark Sailboats of the past use to make the Tea run from China back to England and were paid a premium for being first back with the new season's Tea. They became extreme races. I once calculated the distance verse the time at sea. They averaged over 18 knots for the whole trip on one of their last major race. Please prove me wrong. I know these ships had a great deal of sails. I built such a kit as a kid. Lots of Love

    ... just a day out of port the captain is standing on the deck when the lookout calls down "Sir! There's an enemy ship on the horizon!"
    The captain turns to his cabin boy and shouts "Bring me my red shirt!"
    After the cabin boy brings him the red shirt and he puts it on, the two ships close to fighting range and fight all day, with many heroics on both sides, but with the captain and his red shirt standing alive and victorious as the other ship sinks behind them in the sunset light.
    Later that night the cabin boy is curious and asks the captain why he needed his red shirt, and the captain replies "Well, with my red shirt on, none of the men would see me bleeding if I was wounded, and so they would not lose heart and continue to fight on to victory!"
    The cabin boy thinks that's pretty clever and goes to bed for the night.
    The next day, the captain is standing on the deck as they sail along when the lookout shouts down "Sir! Twenty enemy ships on the horizon!"
    And the captain turns to his cabin boy and says "Bring me my brown pants!"

You have free access to the harbor, free washing machine and dryer, and the shower is also free. And if you come to Oslo we can meet you on the sea. We have been following you on your journey for a while now. We can also give you advice on what to see along the Norwegian coast as we sailed to Tromso last year. Be aware that the summer soon ends.

    Overheard at the Southampton Boat Show where a motor boat customer was negotiating the price. "You can knock off the cost of the anchor and chain, I won't need it as I have a marina berth." True story which must have given the salesman a few chuckles.
    Once the depressions start running across the Atlantic a this time of year it can be a long time before you may get a decent interval to run South again, otherwise you will need plenty of logs for the fire. I love that you were yearning warm water and sunshine, that's why we left Northern Europe and moved to Australia. Pop into Mooloolaba in SE Queensland when you get there we will buy you a beer!

    A thirsty sailor runs from his boat to the nearest bar and shouts to the bartender, “Give me twenty shots of your best scotch, quick!”
    The bartender pours out the shots, and the sailor drinks them as fast as he can.
    The bartender is very impressed and exclaims, “Wow. I never saw anybody drink that fast.”
    The sailor replies, “Well, you’d drink that fast too, if you had what I have.”
    The bartender says, “Oh my God! What is it? What do you have?”
    “Fifty cents!” replied the sailor.

    Now that you are in Norway you must go to the Lysefjord and see the Pulpit rock, also known as Preikestolen, that towers straight up to a height of almost 1 km from the bottom of the fjord.
    Its an experience of a lifetime. Its not too far from Farsund - about 100 nautical miles up the cost from Farsund. Seing the towering rocks from a boat at the bottom of the fjord is simply an amazing experience, which the likes of to my knowledge can't be found anywhere else in world.
    Love your channel. Always brings a smile to my face.

    Hans turns up for his first day with the German Coast Guard. He's shown round the building, then taken to his new position as radio operator.
    "Gut Mornink, Hans," says the old hand. "As you are ze new guy, I am off to ze bier keller. Just remember, all international radio traffic must be in ze English", and leaves.
    Hans sits listening to the radio for a while, when he hears a call.
    "Mayday, Mayday - help us, can anyone hear us?"
    "Yar," says Hans. "Vot is Ze Problem?"
    "Thank god," comes the voice. "We're on a yacht in the North Sea and we are sinking."
    "Okay," says Hans. "Vot are you sinking about?"

    Hi Guys
    Iv;e been watching your cast for awhile now and I kinda like the enthusiasm and the energy you guys have and bring to the public domain. Hence I subscribed with all the trimmings. I'm a 55 year old retired South African Naval Sailor. Served for 20 years, did a lot of sailing, know the feeling. So I kinda understand all the nautical terms and instrumentation. Must say you really have gusto. Anyway let me tell my nautical joke.
    An America boat was busy sinking near the German coastline so the captain of the boat instruct the Yeoman to make the SOS call...
    The Yeoman: "Mayday, Mayday, we are sinking, I say again we are sinking......
    The sailor on watch in the German Coast guard control room replies........in his Germanic accent "hullo this is Zie German coast guard, say again what is zie problem?"
    The Yeoman repeated his call: "Mayday, Mayday, we are sinking, I say again we are sinking......
    The German Coast Guard replied..........." what are zyou sinking (thinking) about? ;)

    Man is sitting belly up at a bar 3 or 4 pints in when 3 huge women sit down at a table near him. After his next pint he can't help but hearing the women have a UK accent. He leans over and asks "Excuse me, are you ladies from Scotland?" The largest and loudest of the 3 women screams back - " It's WALES YA FRIGGIN IDIOT...WALES" to which he replies "oh I'm sorry...are you WHALES from Scotland?"

    Hey guys, welcome to Norway! A little tip: here you have something called "allemannsretten". It means that you can go where ever you want to go, camp where ever you want to camp(not in people`s backyards though, that would raise some eyebrows) :) Also, as you have experienced there are a lot of rocks here, so make sure your anchoring is secure. I have had the pleasure of finding the view a little different in the morning after some wind during the night.. Please enjoy, and the nature is yours to explore! :)

    Hi there,
    Welcome to Norway. Nice video. Anchorage depth is a problem we have here. Using a weight hanging from chain, not touching the ground, helps by changing the catenary shape, laying the rode more horizontal. It also serves as an shock absorber.
    Now, my joke:
    Knock knock
