Guys thanks so much for a brilliant show I’m stuck in a Marina going nowhere and i savoured every second of that, so don’t feel bad about the cold and sleepless hours, it was worth it. Simply the best show on utube by a nautical mile !
Been a subscriber for a while, but just now getting into watching the videos in depth . Great job you two, love the realism, and the honesty of your work. Looking forward to more!
Too bad you didn’t have time to stop in BOWfort NC, where I live on my Tartan 34 C & work in a canvas shop. & yes, you two have a sailboat. Catamarans are…catamarans. 😂
At the 22 minute mark, the house is designed by Buckminister Fuller. It is a geodesic dome. It covers the largest area with the least amount of material. Kind of like in Harry Potter, the tent is small and you go inside and its huge. It will really trick your mind when you go inside. It also is wind resistant as the wind just moves around it without obstruction. I just love hearing Brandy when the water puppies show up. Every time. I really needed this happy video as this past Friday we had to put our furbaby Zoe down due to heart failure. Both Ken and I are feeling lonely. I know it will pass as tincture of time heals the heart.
Go to see you sailing again .I have noticed that we live in a world of rude, intitaled people don't let it bother you ,stay sweet just like you two are.Safe travels.❤
Oh my goodness my heart is crushed for you. Sending you so much love and hugs. Losing a furbaby is the absolute hardest. We hope that Zoe is running with Oona bear under the rainbows. 🫶🫶🫶
My boat is too tall for the ICW. But if I could, I think I would anchor every night. Maneuvering in the limited space of the ICW can be a pain in the dark. Plus sailing non-stop is really tiring, especially for just 2 people.
Solar engineer here: easy way to gut check your panels is to check VOC and ISC with a multi meter. Basically, measure voltage with the panel disconnected, then measure current through the multimeter from just that panel. Having 2 panels, check them both at the same time and facing same directions. That removes the impact of clouds, panel age, etc. If close withing 20%, panels probably all ok.
I really enjoyed your ICW video. We came down there in 1992 from Ontario on our way to the Bahamas. We thought is was so peaceful and beautiful, not boring Beau. Just kidding. I have been following you since your start, love it.
After all these years watching y'all (I'm a subscriber) it blows me away Brandy that your smile on seeing dolphins hasn't changed.. You get a magical smile every time! ❤️🇺🇸
I am so sad that you were anchored out right behind us and I we didn't even realize. The anchorage at Bucksport is really nice and protected. The only down side is that is very remote.
Another stellar episode guys 😀!! Stunning videography and superb editing … enjoyed my trip down the ICW with you! So beautiful, peaceful and DOLPHINS 🥰👏‼Thank you for a 40 minute escape from reality … much needed and appreciated!! See you next week 😘❤!
i've seen dolphins from far away, but to see them so close has to be awesome....has to be a great feeling to be back in your t-shirts again LOL ...thank you for another great video...stay safe 😎
U 2 seasoned sailors put out a 40 minute vlog! Impressive,! The time and effort it took to do the editing, mixing the monitoring while rendering then uploading a vlog of that duration shows the love u guys have to share your adventures. IMHO the absolute best post so far for ur channel and I have watched from ur start. Fair Winds to both of you Legends!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. Loved that you had lots of dolphins. It never gets old does it !! Thanks for cheering up a rainy Sunday afternoon 😊
To bad ya didn't stop by when you were talking about your solar panels. We could have fixed it and sent you on your way with a beer. Hopefully we cross paths down the road when you don't have a schedule.
You gotta watch out for Max Kady in Cape Fear! What a great movie. Robert De Niro was great in the 1991 adaptation but I lean towards Robert Mitchum in the black and white original in 1962. Y’all should watch it while there. Scary!!
Oh how beautiful they are! 🐬 I never get tired of watching them play in the water along side of my sailboat. 💖 ⛵ So sorry bad boaters who think they know it all and feel they have the right to bully others & picked on you. There's carma baby. Just know we love you guys💖. Cheers, S/V Cork~Texas ⛵🇺🇸
We finally made it from Norfolk to Key Largo Florida. Our trip was very similar to yours. The ICW is not our favorite but it is always nice to have the option in bad weather. Hope our paths cross at some point. We will be heading to Boot key in a couple of weeks.
The snowball house is built for hurricanes, as the wind will blow around the house and not catch sharp angles and destroy the house. It also works well with snow 😁
Hey guys. I do love the ICW, if I just want to motor or slowly sail. On your solar problem, I am curious if you have the Victron app to view and control the charge controller(s)? I have used my app and reset my Victron controllers, when they goof off!
Cool to see you two come into Masonboro Inlet, it is where I caught the sailing bug :-). Dome houses are very wind resistant WOW! Never would have imagined you guys would ever end up on the Waccamaw River! We spent the last three hurricane seasons there. Where you guys anchored is where we were Docked for the last Hurricane season. I saw our mast in the shot of Bucksport Marina!
Ha, yeah I remember that Anchorage with the mayonnaise mud. V22s fly overhead at night while training. Sat through a 40knot storm and drug a bit. Terrible holding, but pretty cool otherwise
If you put sails on a barge does it become a sailboat or is it still a barge with sails; does a raft with sails become a sailboat? I think Brandy is right. 😁
Can you put the generator in the dinghy and let it trail behind aways? I’ve been wondering. And perhaps a board covering the Gen but angle low at front and high at back to deflect noise. The other thing that intrigues me is that I haven’t seen anyone yet talk about having a 12 volt pump in their dinghies to pump it out during rain. ICW does look like a slow but beautiful adventure all of its own.
Also, just want to appreciate how much everybody hates on the ICW. I get it it, it's not your style, like totally. Except when the weather is rough outside. Or the weather is dead outside. And the trees, and the birds, and the scenery, and the anchorages, and the towns, and access to services and well, pretty much everything about it is awesome. But it's just a terrible boring busy ditch, right?
Helly Hansen outfit? That's a mile from where I live (Moss, Norway). Appart from it is possible made in China :-) Your pronounciation is just as good as mine :-)
Uh, just to point a bit of fact, but wth are y'all going for the Caribe or Gulf???? Hurricane Season is rapidly approaching....In Savannah I spent a lot of time down at my Aunt & Uncle's place right on the ICW, had a nice little cove, not a good place to be at low tide....

So sad to hear about your puppy 😢

So very sorry about your Zoe 😢. Losing a furbaby is gut wrenching … no amount of time with them is ever enough. RIP Zoe 💜 ……..
Oh my goodness my heart is crushed for you. Sending you so much love and hugs. Losing a furbaby is the absolute hardest. We hope that Zoe is running with Oona bear under the rainbows. 🫶🫶🫶
The nature shots in this video were incredible! Dolphins, birds, moss covered trees. Nicely done!
Thank you very much! It was pretty nice to have so much to film :)
IDK why but that shrimp boat being named after Gandalf's horse just made me smile
Haha! We didn’t even notice that, good eye!
And there’s a river in the Shire called the Brandywine, which the Hobbits used in their departure. The movies didn’t use the name. 24:40
Brandy, its a sailboat condominium !
Favorite thumbnail you two have done 👏🙌
OH WOW! Thank YOU!!!
@@BeauAndBrandy the composition is truly spot on. Well done!!

Lol. I think just the night stretch for him was boring. but it was a nice experience, so happy we did in that time of year. So pretty.
I have to agree with you, it is so beautiful out there. Good way to relax and get ready for the next passage
I love you guys! Am delighted to see parts of the ICW. Safe travels. ❤
Thank you :)
After all these years watching y'all (I'm a subscriber) it blows me away Brandy that your smile on seeing dolphins hasn't changed..
You get a magical smile every time! ❤️🇺🇸
😀🐬 there is just something about them! ✨
Great episode!! What would I do without B and B!! ✌️💜
Oh my goodness, I looooved seeing the dolphin footage 😍 Looked like so much fun!! At the end of the video, what was up with those boats colliding?!
Home waters for me...all the way to Snows Cut and the Cape Fear River...Carolina Beach was home for many years.
that was most likely a snow bird transplant telling you how to sail ! Locals would not give a puff.
Graduated HS in Wilmington, 1976, before Interstate 40 was completed to the coast, that, brought in all the Snow Birds.
@@josephmc57 I believe it! Carolina folks are the nicest we’ve met.
I am so sad that you were anchored out right behind us and I we didn't even realize. The anchorage at Bucksport is really nice and protected. The only down side is that is very remote.
Your filming and editing are increasingly getting to the awesome level! Nicely done!
Well thank you so much! How kind 😍💛
The ICW is the nicest and wildest above Georgetown ! Good sailing forward, the Georgia stretch on the ICW is full of nature and undeveloped.
you changed sails on the fly very well - you're getting better (who needs a fancy furler) LOL
Lol. Oh it’s happening, just waiting on the sails to be completed
Sounds like Bo ford NC, Bu ford SC
its so funny we can name all the islands in the Caribbean, but getting the names right here in the US has been a challenge LOL.

It’s the absolute BEST!! ⛵️🐬
Great video, thanks for taking us along.
That igloo shaped house is built to withstand the hurricanes better. Wind won't catch on it.
And in the other side of the world, in Adelaide, I find a reason to stay awake a bit longer.
Right with you bud
awwww we love our aussie friends

Wowoowowooww! Thank you! It’s nice to hear this for sure 💛 sounds like you may know a thing or two about it 😉

Love your new Bimini I’m sure you sewed that too

Smokey and the Bandit , Buford T Justice
which one is which? lol.
Love love your new Helly Hansen jacket ❤
Thank you again
Sarasota has been warm most of 2024. You will be here soon ❤
Awesome marine life appreciation! Great video

Florida…listen up. 🤣
Our experience has been similar to yours in that we have only been passed, never passed anyone else - slowpokes of the ICW 😂
Yep, 🐢 ⛵️
Awesome video
That house roof is a geodesic dome design. Look up Bucky Fuller. Cheers !!
Ooh will have to look it up. It’s definitely a really cool structure!
Awesome..!

Brandy, if I was Beau...I would do same thing if it was in my face...hahahaha... it is funny watching your facial expressions.
Enjoyed the ICW in NC where I live. 😊
Thanks! We loved it!
BOWfort, NC and BEUWfort, SC...lol. Spelled the same but pronounced different...lol
Plus money !
Hats off to the two of you. Most sailors I know will start the engine when boat speed drops below 4 knots.
That home that you were looking at right there is one of the most resistant to win their is structurally built
So interesting.
Hey your bridge count is off 😁😁 you missed Little River swing bridge which is the first one in SC. Our yacht is moored there
Ooopps. 😬 after this stretch they all started to blend together 😂
Cool to see you two come into Masonboro Inlet, it is where I caught the sailing bug :-). Dome houses are very wind resistant
WOW! Never would have imagined you guys would ever end up on the Waccamaw River! We spent the last three hurricane seasons there. Where you guys anchored is where we were Docked for the last Hurricane season. I saw our mast in the shot of Bucksport Marina!
You're such good, true sailors. We're in the Sea of cortez and the winds are so variable, makes sailing difficult!
You guys passed through my neck of the woods. In Myrtle Beach off the 501 near the 501 bridge you went under.
Ha, yeah I remember that Anchorage with the mayonnaise mud. V22s fly overhead at night while training. Sat through a 40knot storm and drug a bit. Terrible holding, but pretty cool otherwise
Haha Mayo mud! it’s did have a certain odor coming for the plant in a certain breeze
Not my jam either. But impressed that you found as many nice things to say as you did about the ICW. You’re very positive:)
Wow Sailor great episode ❤
Thank you!! 🐬
LOVE your basil plant(s)
Oh yes, that was Food. beau named him that. 🤣😂 He was with us for awhile…but sadly he maybe got a little too much water for a couple of days 😬
@@BeauAndBrandy SALT water? 🌊☠️
@@SirAdamMeek maaaayyybbbeee 🙃
If you put sails on a barge does it become a sailboat or is it still a barge with sails; does a raft with sails become a sailboat? I think Brandy is right. 😁
The English have sailing barges
Giant sails, used to move cargo up and down the coast.
@@lonestaradventures8838 Did you watch the video?

ICW does look like a slow but beautiful adventure all of its own.
Wonder if you could hook panels direct to battery if motor on seems would not overcharge,
I am northward bound from Ft Pierce. I would love t9 buy you two a drink in some port
This was from November ish. I think they're in the Bahamas right now.
Good for you. I am moving to attend a wedding in St Augustine
❤❤❤

So many birds and two dolphin sightings in one video! Awesome!!! 🤗💞
we actually even had a third of the dolphins but to far for the camera. 🐬
Helly Hansen outfit? That's a mile from where I live (Moss, Norway). Appart from it is possible made in China :-) Your pronounciation is just as good as mine :-)
Hahaha! Yah we aren’t the best at these names.
Surprised you do not have more keel up and down work to do in the ICW .
Don't worry about those bully tailored they probably have less than one tenth of the sea time that you have .
Thanks friend! ⛵️🐬🌊
Good to know about Karen’s of the sea. 😂
Beau being unsure how to pronounce 'Beau' was a nice touch.
😂🤣 well to be fair there are two beauforts and both are pronounced a different way.
@@BeauAndBrandy Sure thing Bew 👍
Listen to the Captain, it's a sailboat. lol
Haha! That’s right! 😁
Hybrid solves tat problem .
We wouldn’t be opposed to it. if we had a choice we would do it.
😎
Uh, just to point a bit of fact, but wth are y'all going for the Caribe or Gulf???? Hurricane Season is rapidly approaching....In Savannah I spent a lot of time down at my Aunt & Uncle's place right on the ICW, had a nice little cove, not a good place to be at low tide....
Caribbean baby!!
Are you in salt or fresh water?
That Part of the ICW between Myrtle Beach and Georgetown on a fresh water river. The Waccamaw River.
You tell those meany heads to mind their own business! 🙄🤗
Don’t make me call my Cajun on them 😘
You are in an area saturated with native American names...
