Great video man, congrats on the passage!! one of the best new youtube channels I've run across. As for the ukulele, i say no pick. The pick just had a little too much string buzz, whereas no pick was just a warm, full sound. Cheers from Vancouver Island
Keep up the posts, we're travelling at the minute and hoping to start our sailing journey in the next month. Watching your videos gets us excited! Maybe see ya out there one day. I say no pick lol
I’ll bet you end up teaching music in some exotic port of call in the Pacific. I grew up on a sail boat and have sailed trans Atlantic east to west and yacht delivery from Annapolis to St. Lucia. I just love following along on your sailing journey!!!
Found you through SLV shoutout during the Sea people launch. Have loved every episode and was really happy you made it safely to the islands. Your intro is awesome too btw
Luke, when you started singing you stole my heart ❤ I am already loving your channel and I look forward to your adventure going forward. You are a great story teller so you were made for YT. A big hug.
Oh Luke! What a wonderful series you have here! I’m remembering our brief time together during SFYCA. A small world we live in. Be safe out there cap, let music fill your soul.
Greetings captain, from Durban South Africa, congrats on your passage, just want to let you know you have an amazing chanel, i love and admire what you do, so awsome following your expedition 🌊 safe sails brother!! Blessings to you!!
I just found your channel and love watching. Wow, crossing the Pacific all alone as a relatively new sailor... You really have a sense of adventure! (plus WAY more courage than I have ever had). I can't wait to see new vlogs on your travels. I wish you the best of luck! I have dreamed of sailing to the Pacific Islands ever since my mom read Kon Tiki (Thor Heyerdahl) to me way back in the early 60's when I was about 10 years old. PS: You have a great voice!!! Keep the video's coming, I'm sure your subscribe base will grow! Have fun!! :)
Watching your videos has encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone and try new things! I love your sense of adventure and hope to meet you some day , you are inspirational beyond words to me
The joy I get when I see a new upload! I LOVE following your adventures, your general positivity and appreciation for life is a gift to us viewers. Thank you. ❤️
You are living the dream Luke. It's SO fun and refreshing to follow your life on songbird, and even though I've never properly sailed I can just FEEL the joy and emotions that showered over you as you stepped on land again after the huge passage you just did. All the trials you have overcome so far. Just... wow! You are amazing and you inspire me to follow my dream of learning to sail and getting my own sailboat some day (I work as an arctic marine ecology PhD student, and our sampling excursions out on research vessels each year are the highlights of my life). Best of luck, happy sailing and I look forward to see more of your adventures! Happy hug from northern Norway!
Awesome Video, love the energy.... Dude nice voice! Love the sailing community. I have travelled all over the world, and everywhere i went I found awesome people. Thanks for sharing the light!!!
Thank you Luke! So great to see the spear fishing goddess on there with you!! I have a 1968 Alberg 30, & you are inspiring me to do more with what I have & not wait until I can afford a bigger boat. Thank you!!
Great video Luke. I don’t know how you went from zero to top quality video production but you managed to do so. Keep up the great work. Not in Mexico yet. Buying a house in Port Townsend. Fair winds.
I love your videos. Wow such courage. My husband and I have a sail boat similar to yours. We live in Houston Texas. We sail in clear lake and outside of kemah bay, we’ve never made it to Galveston bc we’re afraid of the very busy channel. ❤
Great to see you having such an inspiring beginning at the island after your epic passage. You're a star skipper right from the start. Highest Blessings
I do truly feel like I am keeping track of you on this journey. Like "omg he made it to land again! Thank goodness". It is SO interesting to truly see like the not good days with the good ones. Keep it up, awesome journey! (:
I love the part when you first reach land. It describes the feeling of reaching port after a long underway so we'll - being overwhelmed after so much time at sea. Your videos make me nostfor my time as a (Navy) Sailor. I like being home now but am thankful for all the adventures of the way. Enjoy yours!
Hi Luke been following on insta for while but stoked you have a longer form content. Just a quick question I was wondering? How much sailing experience did you have to even decide to undertake such an epic journey? Safe travels my friend from 🇦🇺
Oh my heavens , I could listen to an entire video of you singing . You ask for people to subscribe , Wow! If you sang from the beginning and for long , you will get so manyyy shares !
Fabulous episode, you really convey what it’s like to arrive on land after a long ocean crossing. Very few people can make an ocean crossing interesting on video but you truly did it, I watched every moment and enjoyed it all. One thing that could be improved is the way you move your camera around too fast and too jerky. If you could slow down a bit and smooth out the movements, it would be more enjoyable and more professional. thank you so much for sharing your journey. I’m enjoying following along.
Woooow cool blog. I love it and a bit jealous. Also, how do you sing soooo well? In previous blogs you mentioned that you were a classical musician but... are you an opera singer? By the way: saludos desde Madrid, España
hi Luke!! love your channel... and i've been actually following your instagram from before! really like it and it's a kind of an inspiration for me... owner of just adquired old Formosa 41.. to restore a bit and really looking forward to get new adventures.. gain experience and enjoy life!! sure one day i will be sailing to French Polynesia.. it's a matter of time and experience!! also what's the starlink you are getting by the way? i guess it's not the boating one right..? (crazy expensive...) so how can you manage to sail and have internet access? also while sailing? thanks a lot for sharing :)
Just found the channel superb content, on a side note....the passport photo you took makes you look like an NPC from Skyrim! No disrespect intended Also you have a banging singing voice.
Best channel on TH-cam, please keep dropping these !!!
I am loving it! Your channel is awesome! Thank you! Kisses from Brazil 🇧🇷
Pick makes it sound brighter....beautiful uke
Hey Luke! Stanley from Slovakia, EU, here. I love your videos!
Great video man, congrats on the passage!! one of the best new youtube channels I've run across.
As for the ukulele, i say no pick. The pick just had a little too much string buzz, whereas no pick was just a warm, full sound.

Love the opera singing. Who needs sailing with that skill?
With La Vagabond out of action you’re it for the weekly adventure fix mate. Loving the content

Settlers of Catan !!! Some people get a bit crazy when they play that game, watch you don't go of course while you're playing! Nice singing!

Wow world record spear fishing! Found a gem to learn from!
Great video Luke. I don’t know how you went from zero to top quality video production but you managed to do so. Keep up the great work. Not in Mexico yet. Buying a house in Port Townsend. Fair winds.
This means the world
Lol, looking for a spear 1st over any other pleasures? That's hard core man!
There’s wants and then there are needs 😂
Awesome video this week! Really interesting experiences. 😊
I love your videos. Wow such courage. My husband and I have a sail boat similar to yours. We live in Houston Texas. We sail in clear lake and outside of kemah bay, we’ve never made it to Galveston bc we’re afraid of the very busy channel. ❤
Great video, I love your raw emotions as you get to a new and exciting chapter in your amazing adventure!! It is truly inspiring🎉
Another great watch! (And Happy Birthday Steph🎉)

Congrats bro. I just started building my trailer so I can build my houseboat. I cant wait. Keep it up
You've got a really fun channel! Not some super hi tec sailboat, doing it alone, fishing, cooking and the ups and downs of your experience.
Love your channel, a breath of change.
When you started singing, I pressed *like* then *unlike * then *like* again. Just so I could like it twice!
3:59 sodies :)
Sunday in the pacific. Everywhere will be closed.
Super sick video!
So glad I found your channel, I'll be starting my first circumnavigation later this year and seeing people get to French Polynesia never gets old.

Luke, I hereby challenge you to a game of Catan. May the best sailor win!
Woooow cool blog. I love it and a bit jealous. Also, how do you sing soooo well? In previous blogs you mentioned that you were a classical musician but... are you an opera singer? By the way: saludos desde Madrid, España
Yep! I studied and performed in operas throughout my entire college experience.

What books would you suggest for learning to sail?
Honestly, ASA101, it taught me a HUGE amount

He's tapping Steph for sure...
