the last day of our five day adventure where we are blessed with the best wind. we set foot on the famous four mile island before packing up the boat and saying goodbye to the amazing priest lake.
Thank you! It’s been interesting learning videography and the technology involved, a little out of my comfort zone but we’re figuring it out and having fun with it.
Thanks so much! Couldn’t have asked for better weather for all five days. Could’ve used a little more wind on some of them but light wind sailing is peaceful and relaxing.
Congrats on your wedding anniversary. Your videos are inspiring me to trade in my sunfish for a pocket sailor cruiser. ⛵️ *currently sailing in SW Idaho*
Hey thank you so much! My boys just bought some fixer upper sunfish sailboats and they are excited to try them out. But yes a small trailerable sailboat is much more versatile and it the perfect platform for exploring our lakes and rivers! Thanks for watching.😀
Another great video. Thanks. I notice your shrouds may be synthetic. My Gloucester16 shrouds are getting old and I'm strongly considering switching to synthetic (cheaper, lighter, less clunky). Can you share any details on your shroud setup?
Thank you! Yes they are synthetic. Dyneema with coligo terminal’s. I should post a video of how I rigged them because I’ve had a few people ask about it. I can give details on how to splice everything also so I’ll do some filming this weekend and post a video soon
I love all your videos! As a Siren 17 owner i can appriciate all the virtues of a micro-cruiser like the N-16.
Thank you ! Definitely fun little boats that can deliver big adventures!
That looked incredibly peacful. Thank you for taking us along!
Our pleasure!
What an awesome way to spend your 20th. Anniversary...Congratulations!!!!
Love you both!!!❤
Yeah our original plan was Hawaii but I think this trip was actually better. Way way cheaper and we had a great time! Nice to keep it local
Love you too! Hope to see you soon
Great video. Something for my bucket list.
Thank you. That was definitely a place I’ve wanted to explore for a long time!
Happy anniversary! Your videos are really well done. The scenery is stunning.
Thank you! It’s been interesting learning videography and the technology involved, a little out of my comfort zone but we’re figuring it out and having fun with it.
Dood, you have the most relaxing voice. Im even more motivated to find my little Monty 15.
Thank you! I’m not sure where you are located but I saw a Monty for sale on Craigslist in ellensburg WA
@@ruddyducksailing I’m in Bayview, can’t pay for that Monty, but had my eye on her for sure
So good man!!! Looked to be about the perfect weather for this trip. Happy anniversary too you cats!
Thanks so much! Couldn’t have asked for better weather for all five days. Could’ve used a little more wind on some of them but light wind sailing is peaceful and relaxing.
We have the same outboard motor and love it.
I am super happy with it so far. Perfect little outboard
Congrats on your wedding anniversary.

I hope to make it to Priest Lake this summer.
It’s a beautiful lake with fun island camping! I want to go back soon.
@@ruddyducksailing Looks stunning, trying to figure out logistics.
My much better half and I had our 20th back in August.
Congratulations. I love to hear of couples that stay together!!
Thanks

@@ruddyducksailing because you are amazing. I look forward to learning more about your rigging. Thank you!
Do you have any future plans to visit lake CDA or the CDA upper/lower river areas?
Actually yes. Not sure if I’m going this fall or early spring. Either way I want to avoid peak tourist season because the lake gets very busy.
