Great to see the progress north and the challenges that come along. The tide in that channel look epic. James, your description of your food is very impressive. Glad to see you enjoying eating the last of your broccoli. See next time
Thanks so much for tuning in Peter! James said he has some ‘fond’ memories eating broccoli as a kid. And now here I am persuading him to eat moldy crowns😅😂
👍Loving your videos through northwest passage. Amazing landscape. Great photography. What a gorgeous part of the US and to boot, a little Norway in the US. How great is that. Great shot of the beautiful swimming moose. You two fix the most scrumptious meals on board. Bon appetit. Thanks for sharing.
So glad you’re enjoying the Alaska szn! Thank you, it sure is a dreamscape! We were stoked to see our first moose out here, didn’t expect to see one in the water. Glad you’re enjoying the food too, thanks for writing!! We’ll see you in the next one, cheers!
Very nice job on this video! It’s not as easy as it looks to capture the essence of a small town, but you did it very well here. The photography was beautiful. Your meals are looking like they just arrived from a 5 star restaurant’s kitchen. Good job.
Lovely video, as always. Seeing the dolly varden took me back to my youngster days, fishing for kokanee salmon on Kootenay Lake back in the 70s and my uncle catching dollies once in awhile when he took us out trolling. Always grateful that we relocated there from the Vancouver area and that I got to grow up in such a scenic area.
Back in the day, I sailed the B.C. portion of the inside passage as part of a high latitude singlehanded circumnavigation. Later I kayaked two different routes paddling from Seattle to Skagway. The second trip was 14 weeks and I made side trips up 3 fjords to tidewater glaciers and then to Glacier Bay N.P. before heading to Skagway for the ferry ride back to Bellingham. The primitive camping and wildlife is just spectacular. I highly recommend this paddle.
Wow, sounds like an epic journey! That's an incredible experience, I can only imagine the amazing scenery and wildlife you experienced. We met quite a few folks on similar expeditions. Respect for those in smaller hulls than ours! Thank you for sharing your adventures, cheers!
A new subscriber here....have been watching sailing channels like LaVagabond and Delos for years.....your channel is SO very unique! Love the Alaskan frontier...such amazing scenery!
My girlfriend grew up in Wrangel many years ago. First on a homestead on the Stikine River and then in town. Love your video................Thanks joe and Ginny
Wow! What a cool connection to the Stikine River. It’s to so beautiful there! So glad you’re enjoying our videos. Thanks for watching guys. See you in the next one, cheers!
Allison & James, hi from Calgary, always look forward to enjoying an episode. I applaud you for continuing to include actual sailing components to your content. Didn't know sailing the inside passage was so challenging. There's enough to concentrate on without keeping an eye out for Moose !!! crossing the channel. Make contact with a big Bull weighing 1500 lbs on land and in water and you would come to a full stop and check for damage, Damage to the boat not the Moose. Great catch seeing it, thanks.
Hi there! So glad you’re enjoying the sailing content. The inside passage is a different kettle of fish from sailing offshore, protected calm seas but logistically challenging with currents and tides. We’re use to keeping an eye out for logs but a moose was new haha grateful it made it back to shore safely. Thanks for writing, we’ll see you in the next one. Cheers!
So glad you liked it! Incredible swimmers those moose, but def risky crossing with all those racey skiffs yikes haha catch you in the next one. Cheers!
Love Petersburg, I've been based out of there a couple of times while building cabins on remote lakes for the Forest Service. Used to wet our whiskers at Kito's Kave as I recall. Good restaurants too, fresh caught shrimp was a treat.
My wife would love to have your grivlax receipe. I couldn't find it listed below. It's been great to follow your progress on your way north to Alaska. We travelled many of the same routes in our North River 31SXL this summer. Many of your videos were very helpful in route and anchorage selection. Thanks!!! Cheers🍺🍺
Awh, cool! So glad we could help with your planning! Oops, the gravlax recipe is in the video description now. Here you go!: 1 (2 pound; 900g) skin-on sushi-grade salmon fillet 1 teaspoon coriander seeds & red pepper flakes (or whatever spices you have on hand) 1/4 cup kosher salt (about 4 tablespoons), plus more for washing salmon 1/4 cup sugar (about 4 tablespoons) 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper or black pepper Fresh dill 1. Toast seeds until fragrant. Transfer to a spice grinder or mortar and pestle and grind finely. 2. In a small bowl, stir together salt, sugar, ground caraway and coriander seeds, and white or black pepper until thoroughly combined. 3. Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Put fish in container with curing mixture (salt, sugar & spices) and herbs. Refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours. We also give a run down in this video th-cam.com/video/HIbeo-6fyd0/w-d-xo.html (around 17:30 mins) Hope you enjoy!
@@AllisonandJamesSailing Do not under estimate our beautiful cold ocean! Our compressor crapped-out and (at 1500$+) the fridge returned to an icebox. With that we often just throw food overboard... In a strong plastic bag (with a lanyard attached) or some plastic bags into a rugged bucket and let it sink about a foot. Too deep for the birds to shallow for the proposes. If we ever are lucky enough to catch a fish I fillet it and rinse it in ocean water. The water is often colder than our "icebox"! 🙂
Great fun watching your travels through Wrangell Narrows to Petersburg. Your meals always look so amazing. I feel for the moose competing with boat traffic trying to get across during nice weather and friendly tide. Professional guides should be more cautious than the boat you mentioned.
Eating is high priority aboard our ship haha So glad you enjoyed it this one. Keep your eyes peeled for moose folks. Here’s hoping that brave guy is still swimming strong!
You guys genuinely deserve your own tv show. Incredible narration, personalities, and quality shots! Not to mention your sailing skills! ❤
Awe that’s kind, thank you so much! Really glad you’re enjoying our videos, cheers!
epic video!! Alaska is so beautiful and you capture it so well. ALSO you eat so good on the boat. Excited to see you soon bestie
Aw! Thanks for the support love. You’re the v best!
Underrated channel. Great job! Great cinematography, storytelling, and food!

Awh, such nice memories! Such beautiful wilderness in that area. Thanks for sharing! Glad you enjoyed the video! See you in the next one!
Whilst in Alaska I paddled over two moose grazing lake grasses, they were like 8 feet underwater. Terrific swimmers.
Oh wow, that’s pretty incredible!
