    Like that you have a cat which is not to big, and not designed with over complicated systems. Great videos of life aboard.

      @brick8253 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I totally understand what you are saying but for a cat that is still a good size sailboat!!!! absolutely humble, amazing people and they know their limits! I think a 39'-40' sailboat is as big as you really want to go when solo sailing.

    Scoping fish and conch from the dingy, We call that "road hunting" out West... Sierra is bringing home the hogs!

  • @skullhart
    @skullhart 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    To catch fresh mutton snapper, take a spinning rod with a >6ft of 30lb mono leader. Thread the line through a 6oz sinker and tie on a 6/0 hook. Hook a nice chunk of conch guts and throw it out behind the boat while sipping on a drink in the evening. Leave plenty of slack.

    Great hack for extra ice. 1) Fill a plastic Orange juice bottle 3/4 full of water (it will expand) and use that. Or use it to have cold water all day. 2) Fill some zip lock bags with water and freeze them.

    After seeing the rain running off the back of the Solar panel covers as Sierra caught water in a bucket.I thought of cutting up a used gallon jug so you can hook over that edge with a hose to run the water back to your deck with a water hose to a larger plastic barrel to use for washing down

  • @lotusdolphin
    @lotusdolphin 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey Sierra, Billy and Jetty! I love this video. Simple just a day in the life. Seems like you got gypped on the weather though. Sierra, you were the bomb getting all the food for the day, cleaning up the boat. But I did notice that Billy took care of you at dinner. That was interesting. I didn’t know how to cook lobster. Thank🦞 explaining that Billy. You guys have fun and look forward to the next one. From LIZ in California.🦀🐙🐬🌊🦞⛵️🤟🏻🐕🐾🇺🇸😎

  • @krisnace
    @krisnace 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Catch, cook, and eat nothing like it. We would take our boat go out fishing for the day then do some crabbing and then lastly get some mussels. It is very gratifying when you catch and cook your own supper. Safe sailing and God Bless 🙏

  • @petenelson8136
    @petenelson8136 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You might have a spring loaded, or 3D printed so it snaps on and off (so it can be removed) diverter made that would snap onto the corner where the rain comes off and divert it so that it comes off over your sugar scoop. That way you could capture the water there on the scoop in a bucket, and take a shower standing on the sugar scoop using fresh rain water to bath with. Love your videos, nice to see you both enjoying the fruits of your labor.

    You guys seem to be able to subsist off grid quite well in terms of diesel, propane, gasoline, water and power consumption and apparently sewage as well so very well done and you show us how you do in terms of food though it is definitely hard work to harvest the ocean's bounty... You blend in well with your environment adn the conditions.. I in comparison wimp out liking a dock each night with power, water and essentially unlimited food storage capacity... One thing we don't hear much about his cabin heat, humidity or air conditioning.. but the energy requirements to control our environment take consumption to a high level.. How has the washing machine been working out for you two?

    Hi Billy and Sierra! Great video guys!! Can you put a link to the Home Depot storage drawer unit you put in your cupboard! Live that it slides in and clicks to lock. I can’t seem to find it on their site! Enjoy the Bahamas

  • @beebop4333
    @beebop4333 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    OBSERVATION hi Sierra and billy. Your puppy has a little separation anxiety as u stated, u can get him some benadryl and give to him to make him a little tired an hour or 2 b4 u go diving or leave the boat. Of course test a few times while ur there to see how he reacts and consukt ur vet.
    Also, can u give an update on ur AC, boat repairs and washer?
    Lastly, becareful leaving that window string in front of that fan, you wouldnt want it to work its way in, wrap around the blades and overheat that fan.
    Great vids

      Induction cooking puts a huge drain on your battery bank and also with barbecuing outside quite a lot why wouldn’t they use gas it’s clean efficient safe and popular in most places in the world I’ll bet on overcast days many a channel out there who jumped at induction and having to charge their batteries to eat wished they hadn’t joined the in crowd
