I made some merch if anyone else wants to show their like for the Ocean. my-store-e79b5e.creator-spring.com/listing/i-like-the-ocean
Do you like the ocean?
I’ve been following your channel for maybe 6 yrs, not once have I seen you panicked or phased. A pleasure to watch the calm even in the storm. Thank you.
Wow, thank you
For real
I was about to say the same! I remember sailing my 28ft boat around the Solent and it was sooooo stressfull I sold the boat and stayed on land ;)
Sam has ice in his veins.
I've never sailed the ocean, other than on a Navy destroyer.😅 But I do sail a large, round lake in central MN, Mille Lacs. I've had to white knuckle it a few times. Once you learn to trust your boat, if you ever do, and assuming it is trustworthy, it gives you confidence, which to a large degree negates your fear of death. 😒
"I like the ocean" - Sam. Classic. :)
Should use it as a regular intro
Standby for the sequel, “Air is good.” -Sam Holmes 🤙
I was thinking the same thing lol
No made up drama! Dragging line, sail zipper stuck, wave came in, pumps not working, we went on our side. Sam...It should be all over in a couple of hours...with a smile on his face.
I laughed out loud
I'm glad to see you're wearing that lifeline out in open water!
Yea, but what is the point if solo sailing? If you fall over and are hanging there you’re gone in a minute. If you keep it really short to stop you falling overboard it might help.
@@HakanSjoSam's Mom sleeps better when she watches the vids and sees him being safe!
@@Useless_Knowledge07 so true!
@@HakanSjo You could pull yourself along the line to get close enough to the boat to climb on board, I guess. But you are right, a shorter line would make life easier.
Dude looks like he's always smiling....I like it.
Thank you for continuing to live a beautiful and free life. I find myself ever longing a life at sea, I live vicariously through you. Safe sailing.
I love how you didn't drama that up. Just a smile on your face.
Drama it up like The Old Sea Dog? "Will I lose my leg?" 😂
@@mhub3576 Barry would have had a heart attack out in those conditions! Well done Sam
I watch a few other sailing channels. If any of them ever get in anything that rough, they seem like it's the end of sailing for them. Not Sam. He just laughed and said he was having fun!! You Go Brother! Love It.
Sam keeps things real. No extra hype or drama, just what is happening is happening and that is the secret sauce that makes this channel awesome.
Sam has absolutely no haters... this is by far the most wholesome comment section I've ever seen. This right here is what youtube should be. Best channel, and best fanbase Mr. Holmes!
Sailor Sam is The Man!
It can get rowdy when he starts drilling holes 😂
That's why I call her the "Swiss Cheese Pickle"

Love your work Sam, and always pray for your safe passages. Do me a huge favor and at least consider this for your personal safety.... rig your jacklines down the center of your deck from pulpit to mast and make your harness line short enough to keep you IN the boat's lifelines. If you get dumped and are dragging behind Pickle, there is probably very little chance that you will be able to overcome the drag resistance and pull yourself back onto the boat.
Nice to see the safety harness on !
Sam is so authentic and especially vigilant on safety issues!! (As compared to Phoney Baloney Sailing Atticus)
We would all sail with Sam. Unconscious competence, bombproof
@@caractacus22 Spot On!
Outstanding video Sam. Also I have to say, the inclusion of ambient music was expertly executed, maintaining a perfect balance in volume-not too loud or overpowering. It was subtle enough to complement rather than detract from the content, enhancing the overall experience. Really felt like I was there.
Sam is a gem on youtube. Enjoy your videos, your personality, and your sailing expertise.
Great episode. Loved the chill music combo with the blustery weather. No drama, just sailing. And from a guy who spends much of the week on bed rest, thank you.your channel provides great comfort and encouragement to get me through this period and back on the water 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
" it's about like the ocean and stuff"😂
Sam gets more excitement in a 30 hour passage than most of us get in 30 years 😂
Sam that was the roughest water I've seen you in and you handled it like a champ. You're a heck of a Captain Sam!
So glad you are doing what God puts on your heart. Amazing adventures. This is for your next cup of coffee.
One of the best channels on TH-cam IMHO. 🤙🏽
BRO! That was some sporty sailing. Great work!!!
Lessons always learned. Love the game Monopoly now we've seen it's namesake. Wow the Pickle really pulled herself threw that gail and glistened on her way into port. You prove over and over again on those Waves you do LOVE the OCEAN. Sam; may your sails always fly as high as you want them, and your bildge pumps fuses hold the couse too... LOVE being too take a FREE ride in a FREE Port...
We Are Sailing, Stormy Waters...
Be Safe...Be Forever FREE with the Wind at your back!
That smile man ! one can TELL you like the ocean =) great video Sam !
Thanks! Always a positive attitude. Love it.
Thanks!
Thanks, Sam. I always enjoy watching your adventures. Yours is a life well lived!
Everyone should have a speedy stitcher. They're awesome.
Complete Sam Holmes: smiling as he talks about pitchpoling. Ur the best! A real bold and smart sailor to head to sea in a storm to get off a Lee shore and a bad anchorage. You inspire.
Nice that you can explain pitchpoling with a smile
Great sailor! You love the ocean! So do I! Thanks 🏴☠️
You have been capturing some great video's of the old structures that are very interesting. The mountains and scenery farmland very nice.
Monopoli looks like a pretty great town. I am surprised you didn’t stay a couple days.
WRT the speedy stitcher, totally agree. Will sew through anything… slowly. Invaluable.
All of your adventures are very enjoyable, but your passages are what I look forward to most. Great video, serious sailing and some great decision making/problem solving - it all adds up to showing off the reality that is your life. In a word: Fantastic!
Monopoly looks like a lovely place to visit. I like the area you showed on the video with no sounds of vehicles, horns or sirens. 🙂 Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a great time on the rest of your journey. Cheers. 🤗 ⛵S/V Cork~Texas🇺🇲
Sam, you gotta be one of the most laid back, chilled out, un-excitable dudes I've seen. Do you ever get stressed? I'm sometimes looking at your boat, conditions, and situation and thinking...maybe you should stress a little more! Like...perhaps that would HELP. But you always seem to manage. And certainly have a lot more miles than me. So....🤷😅. Just continued safe sailing - and best - to you. Cheers ~
Sam- The music was exquisite on this segment. Really enjoyed the low volume sound behind the turbulence. The drone shots of Monopoli are beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it
Jacques Cousteau - his voice is in my head every time I put my head into the ocean. 🥰
Great episode. Warmed my heart to see you were strapped on.
"That's not going anywhere," said every guy from the dawn of time who ever tied anything down.
"I like the ocean.." That's an understatement!
Two things: that 360 camera view is wild. "I like the ocean." That should be in a random place in every video. 😂
I like the ocean. Words to live by.
Thanks for the extra sailing footage!
You are why I started sailing again after 35 years, Sam. Thank you so much!
Keep on being a badass!
"I like the ocean" so cool
Oh this is just what i needed to watch!! ❤️.. such a healing power the Ocean has!! Enjoy your journey.. Safe sails my friend!!
I have a handful of sailors I watch on TH-cam when they upload and your channel is one of the better ones, always love when you upload cool to see you doing what your passionate about
Sam has been my inspiration to learn solo sailing. I have taken my little 28 footer out alone a few times but still no passages. I think I get more stressed out watching 10 gallons of water come into Sams bilge without a working bilge than he does.
Good to see you clip on and put on the proper gear when doing something hazardous.
love the footage of the boat and waves, really captures the feeling of sailing. I feel like I'm out there with you.
"Been reading this book.It's about the ocean and stuff. I like the ocean" 😂❤
Wow that shot at 2:26 and the soft music was so awesome!!!
Simply brilliant
I so appreciate your seamanship and sense of fun.
That shot of the sunset against the sea before Monopoli was stunning!
How exciting, Sam! Looking forward to watching the future adventures!
I love watching your adventures - living vicariously...
Speedy stitch is definitely a must have! I’ve almost completely re sewn a boat top before with one. My most important project was while moose hunting in Alaska, my sleeping bag wasn’t keeping me warm, so I made a sleeping bag liner out of a military surplus wool blanket and stayed warm the rest of the 17 day trip.
“I like the ocean.” 😊
Another awesome vid, thanks for bringing us along!
Learning a little about sailing. Sure love to try it for myself.
I would be so scared. Kudos to you!!!
Oh man after a trip like that it feels nice to be able to tie up to solid land and get things sorted again.
Such a class act Sam! Thank you for sharing your world!
Definitely Sam the "GOLD STANDARD"
The Adventure continues!, Thanks Sam, you're the best. 😊
Thanks!
While cursing up a blue streak for several hours today I was thinking, “screw it, I don’t need a manual bilge pump…“ A few more hours of cursing, drilling, hammering, poking, gripping, screwing, twisting, poking, prodding, screaming… And I have a manual bilge pump again! 😁
Now I’m thinking of getting a second electric bilge pump! Thanks!
Beautiful city!
In times like these im glad im a landlubber !
loving the periodic vibes music
Great video Sam! You handled the situations with dignity and class!
agree on the speedy stitcher. I have three!
Beautiful place Sam ! Great job with those waves ❤
Great episode! Good job Sam!
Your camera gyro really brings the swell to life.
Awesome footage!! Great seamanship.
So Much Fun! loved seeing the sea state....good to see you getting a good ride!...and your destination looked worth it
Great video Sam.
Great stuff. Thanks!
Quite challenging Adriatic sea, wind shifting all the time. I miss it!
The ocean to me is like NYC: A nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. You, on the other hand, seem made for it, taking everything she can dish out in stride. Amazing!
That lighting was awesome ⚡️🌩️
Bro, those were crazy conditions to be that close to shore. Respect.
Great episode
Great sailing 👍💖🤗💖👍
A spirited sail ! Bari region is one of my favorite areas of Italy.
I love big wind and waves like that Enjoy!
Always enjoy watching you sail sam, I dream of getting into sailing someday. Until then I'll live vicariously though you lol. Love and prayers from usa
Quotes abound! "It's not that bad tho.." LOLZ "It's about the ocean and stuff ...... I like the ocean." "And ahhhh... I'm not looking forward to that.." "That's not going anywhere!" (famous last words) Best video in a while!
this was a really exciting episode!
Great episode!
Great!
The Speedy Stitch is so simple that it's reliable. It's great to be able to sail with your jib alone in such conditions. Well done for your bilge pumps. I suspected the fuse before you mentioned it - the two pumps being on the same circuit and no current.
Kool another Sam the Man video. My day just got a whole lot better.
the strangled chicken squeaking would drive me nuts 😦
That was fun 😊
Come for the sailing, stayed for the book report.
Fearless to the end brother ( We are both American. ).....I've seen rougher seas on your channel but I can ALWAYS tell when you are a bit "clenched" in the middle of the night. Keep living the dream.
Sam you must have coconuts in your shorts! So cool calm and collected in gale force winds. Well done mate.
I bet that fuse really made your day!
That was a tough sail, great job. I grew up on Jacques Cousteau, he was a true ocean/science pioneer.
great video as always Thanks!
So glad to see you wearing a PFD. Nice haircut 😜
Love Monopoli
