    The new A-frame works really well and has made it so much easier. I have a few more things to do to make the perfect system but those will follow in time. In this adventure I take my brother over to the Isle of Wight in 30kts of wind with the perfect sunset sail at the end!

    Nice work with the boom furl, not too many double keelers here in Los Angeles - that's for damn sure. Great work and nice video.

    That's making us long to get back out on the water.. Only ever sailed by the Isle of Wight and visited once. It giving you so many options and anchorages. Keep the videos coming!

    I pray your channel will make money, I pray you will make enough money to buy a cruiser and see the creation, I pray GOD ALMIGHTY will stand by you and prove he is real, I pray in the name of JESUS that he proves to you that he is real. I will follow you, pray for you and I pray this becomes true for you, in the name of JESUS. (Yes I know I'm a weirdo and Jesus nut, but I really hope you succeed!) Jesus is Lord, repent and trust in him for salvation!
