@@garrettsadventurehey mate good to see you enjoying life some great sailing all through there I’ve done it all the way to Tonga from Florida Hey anyone out there I’m looking for crew on a 43ft Simpson Catamaran
Good for you young fella. Grab those dreams while you can. As an older gentleman I can tell you time goes fast. Make memories as fast and often as you can!
Thank you for letting me and others go along an adventure that many could not ever dream of going upon. I literally grinned/smiled throughout quite a few of your videos I stumbled upon last evening. Thank you Garrett. Praying for safe sailing. Keep posting your videos. Those videos are a slice of heaven.
Congrats on 100k subs, I witnessed it happen while watching your 3 part Pacific crossing uploads. Awesome stuff! Very level headed and optimistic sailor. Keep it up!
Young man I've watched your journey and now you have a companion which I am very pleased about to continue your journey to New Zealand. God bless your new journey and I look foreword to your next video. Stay safe.!🙂
Stumbled across your videos with my 8 year old son. We are so locked in on your adventure. We are so excited for your journey wherever that may take you. Please sail safe man! You got balls bro lol
My favorite channel is back! I'd love some more details about what you did in your off time and what your living arrangements are like when you're not on the boat. Keep up the great work, this channel is the best!
I follow a family that has sailed the world twice with 3 kids over the past 7 year @SailingZatara and they have an awesome CAT. I feel for the owner of the CAT that ran aground. That is a lot of glass work needed on the haul. Glad you are back, I didn't know you left for a few months for the cyclone season. Keep rolling Garrett. You're doing great and these vids bring back so many younger sailing trips!! My dad love French Polynesia! Glad you have a friend too. Solo is ok, but longer voyages are nice to have the extra hand on board. I am sure you will meet many island hoppers too that would help on overnighters! Enjoy!
Nice to see you back Garrett. You are an inspiration to people of all ages. Great to see you have company on this trip. Look forward to future videos. Keep well and safe. James.
You are doing what 99.99 percent of your viewers (including me) only wish they could have done in their dwindling life span. Congrats for the courage and self determination.
Dude you’re insanely brave for doing what you do, and I respect the hell out of that! Please be safe out there, and am looking forward to seeing more adventures from you!
Hi from New Zealand. Nice to see some fresh content. Sleep deprivation must be a hard issue to work around. Not sure how 'll cope when I start adventuring in my boat. Was interesting see how you handled the anchor solo. Something I still haven't quite got my head around. Enjoy your time in the South Pacific. You never know, I might see you in New Zealand.
Just find you videos and its nice to see an so young man jump into he's dreams and just go for it ! Keep up the good life ! I will follow your journey so now you have a new swedish subscriber 😊😊
Welcome back Garrett, Will be better to have some company on your long Voyage, We will welcome u to New Zealand :) Make a Point going to Nelson and we can show u around :) Awesome :) Be safe out there 😋
You go dude.....Onward. I love your fortitude and realist attitude which seems to work for you. You da man, you will be a good catch for that compatible partner that will bring you some spice in life. Just a fan who wishes you the very best of luck.... DJ
Enjoying your videos sir! Thank you! Shake your dad's hand for me on a job well done on his son! FYI - Run the Generator completely out of gas the next time you need to store it for a few months or more.
Keep up the epic journey mate well done. Dont apologise for seeming grumpy “you dont seem grumpy” btw. Incredible what you are doing solo 72 hours sleeping in small 20 -30 minute periods will drive anyone bonkers. Have fun and keep going.
Kudos. I did the Annapurna Circuit 25 years ago, when I was 20 with zero hiking experience and no knowledge awailable on the Internet. Still today I remember this first Himalaya exploit fondly and remember it at hard times, thinking I had the guts and strength to do this as a very young girl. I can also do what lies agead of me, may it be jobrelated, personal or health. I wish you all the best.
I have a Tomking TK144FC four stroke outboard. It's 53 CC's, 23 LBS, reaches 16 inches, and has an aluminum pop. You remove the flywheel and file the crank notch to set the ignition close to top dead center = cooler better idle. Change the centrifugal clutch springs to light ones so you can troll. Many aluminum propellers do much better filed and sanded with a hand finish on the leads and trailing edges of the blades. Sand the inside of the handle and you can stick a long pole in it for steering. You can probably pick up a TK144FC for less than $300 new. I won't touch a water cooled motor or two stroke, nor leave gas in it.
Garrett thank you for your time and the spirit getting second boat and first was the original Hurley 27 in the US from England gave it away during COVID looking forward to sailing 31 trimaran in the big blue I truly appreciate you keep doing it hugs 😊
Been watching all of your vehicles and they have definitely ignited a fire inside to explore sailing once again. Dad used to own a sailboat when I was young and now-a-days he has a powerboat that is small enough to take out on a local chain of lakes near us or out to the ocean if he would like. Although I love his boat i'd like to keep the tradition of sailing in my family alive and plan to take some courses near me. Stay safe brotha!
I swear im twice your age and just by watching you live a dream has literally made me rethink my life goals. You genuinely seem so happy that i think its time for me to follow mine and be happy as well. Safe sailing ❤ from North Carolina
i found this channel a couple months ago, and i was wondering when we would hear more. So glad to see you back on the water! I am living my dream vicariously through you garrett, make the most of it!
Garrett your videos are so inspiring and interesting to watch. I was wondering if you could make a video talking a bit about how you got into sailing and about your life like where you grew up and why you chose to solo travel?
Garrett! My husband and I were on a 51-day South Pacific cruise with our ship in port in Raiatea when we met your dad Shane and talked with him - you and your mom walked up while we were talking. This was the day your mom was going to fly back to Hawaii and you and your dad were going to set sail for home. I was always curious about your trip home. I was sending positive thoughts your way every day for a couple of weeks!! Your dad is (and I’m sure mom is too) SO proud of you!!
We were the couple who couldn’t ditch the stray dog who fell in love with us. And one last thing… we told people on the ship about you, we were so impressed with your story. Especially since you had only started sailing a short time before your big adventure! Will keep following you!
11:47 - 1st somewhat major problem, this puppy i bought from a local is proving to be almost impossible to train. it always freaks out when i try to pick it up, it seems to be very aggressive with food, and it bites just a little too hard when playing. we have a long road ahead of us, but i know with some time and patience Kevin can become the best sailing companion ever.
Well, alright, Garrets is back! Was in Raiatea on anchor during that little weather system. Thankfully didnt amount to much. Just flew back to rainy, California, wishing I would have stayed longer. I'm looking forward to seeing where you end up this season. Be safe out there.
Actually I was there to install two electric motors on a 56 ft custom catamaran. I work on boats, and I was there 6 weeks. Ill be back this summer. You are in an amazing part of the world. Be thankful every day. You're getting to do what many can only dream about.
Nice to see another video. I was wondering what had happened to you. I thought someone had mabey robbed you and made you walk the plank. Glad to see you are alive and well.
This is incredibly interesting content, very inspiring too As I watch this I can envision myself doing similar adventures but the reality is I probably won't ever take up sailing, however there is adventure available to me where I am and watching this motivates me to seize the day Stay safe out there! my greatest fear would be those massive waves during severe storms. Not sure I'd feels safe unless I was in an aircraft carrier tbh
We had a Norsea 27 but sold her to buy a larger boat. Still miss her. I installed a windless switch right inside the companion way so I could motor forward and raise the anchor at the same time. Switch was a 3 position single pole. ON/OFF/ON. Wired to the windlass up/12 volts/down/ contacts..
19:02, you are not a "Knife lover" Lol (Anyone who is sick with knives would die of a heart attack seeing you hitting the stones with their sharp edges haha)
Garrett, if you have somebody along with you for ride maybe make them a bit more a feature of your videos, of course maybe they dont want to be on camera in which case I will just shut up, otherwise keep up the good work.

I'm twice your age but you teach me many lessons ! Well done man you cut the crap and these adventures and videos feel genuine. Inspiring
Good for you young fella. Grab those dreams while you can. As an older gentleman I can tell you time goes fast. Make memories as fast and often as you can!
Time moving too fast was one of the biggest reasons I started doing this.
@@garrettsadventure❤
Inside every old fellah is a young one looking out and wondering wtf happened!
What a treat watching Garrett’s videos.

You shouldn’t hurt your hand with a sharp tool.

Tripped over your videos and went on a whole ass adventure across the pacific with you. Great videos!
Glad to see you back it, safe travels to New Zealand 🇳🇿!
Probably one of my favorite accounts right now with Mav and outdoor boys
Glad you like it! Once every week or two is the new goal.

And one last thing… we told people on the ship about you, we were so impressed with your story. Especially since you had only started sailing a short time before your big adventure! Will keep following you!
Hit send prematurely, can we Zelle you??
Some ass kicked that dog in the face shortly after you left because it tried sniffing him. Wasn’t so brave when we yelled at him.
Try covering your oats with a lot of sultanas. Tastes great and is healthy. No need to cook the oats.
These videos helped push me to sign up for sailing lessons. Thanks!
Good deal! Where at?
I live in Chicago, so starting out on Lake Michigan at Chicago Yacht Club (once it warms up in May), but all signed up!@@garrettsadventure
I just found out one of your videos, great adventure for sure, hugs!! 👋

Unless that's your sister I think you'll be having a lot more fun on this voyage than the last.
Great to see you back on the water!

Thank you, and good luck in your adventures. I'm going to try my absolute best to avoid any sort of storm, let alone a severe one.
Glad you are back. Good luck
YES!!!! Dude I’ve been checking every week for your next video. I’ve been dying to see what you’ve been up to. Great video as always bro! ⛵️
Glad you like them, thanks for watching. More coming soon
I’m Garrett, i’m 18 😂. This is awesome man hope your enjoying it
You're awesome, man. Come pick me up so we can explore my Native; American Samoa... haha .... Regards
No stoping U skipper...this going be the best...cant believe it...lets go..
Cheers!
Hey bud when its raining build yourself a strapogent rain whisper to keep all the rain out of your bells
We had a Norsea 27 but sold her to buy a larger boat. Still miss her. I installed a windless switch right inside the companion way so I could motor forward and raise the anchor at the same time. Switch was a 3 position single pole. ON/OFF/ON. Wired to the windlass up/12 volts/down/ contacts..
That is a good idea.
Let's gooooo another video the most interesting channel and really cool
19:02, you are not a "Knife lover" Lol (Anyone who is sick with knives would die of a heart attack seeing you hitting the stones with their sharp edges haha)
I love You content, keep it up bro. Just a little tip, ask a local to show you how to open coconuts
enjoy man love to see your progress
Thank you
Your amazing sailing around like this.
Did you find any good surf on aitutaki or any of the other cook islands other than Rarotonga?
Garrett, if you have somebody along with you for ride maybe make them a bit more a feature of your videos, of course maybe they dont want to be on camera in which case I will just shut up, otherwise keep up the good work.
