    Don't sponsor Sam if you're afraid of an honest review of your product, he'll let you know what he actually thinks about it.
    Sam said he bought Pickled Herring off ebay for 12k 😂, then he did a haul out and rebuild(ish) before setting off.
    He's resourceful, capable, and unflappable.

    Maybe the frenchman, or whoever did the atlantic crossing on a 23ft or something.
    I think there was a group of guys who did it on some crummy catamaran, and were talking about seeing sharks while swimming
    I think there's another guy who took a hobie to bahamas, maybe it was Sam

    So happy to see you covering Sam. I saw his Pacific crossing to Hawaii in about 2020 when I bought my first sailboat (1985 Bayfield 29’), having zero experience but i lived on it for two years and was obsessed with Sam’s channel. My boat was a junker, but I only gave $10K for it. I had a blast and it got me out of Texas. I almost had kittens when I saw Sam sailing right by my boat in the ICW in Fort Pierce. lol! Good times. Keep up the great work, man. I’ve watched your channel almost as long as Sam’s.

      --So what if he spent 2 weeks crossing the Pacific?
      --So what if his rudder broke?
      --So what if he continued without it?
      --So what if he waited to accepted a tow, until he was just outside the harbor, from someone who was headed there anyway?
      -No big deal, boss.
      --Could've happened to anybody!

    Love Sam's channel, he seems honest. He was also given a boat in Florida. He sailed it without doing any refits. I think it was either stolen or moved off its nooring ball ar some point. I dont know what the current status is of that boat.

    I think Sam got some sponsors in some way. Inside the "Picklet Herring" there are several company names like: Lewmar, TEMO, YakBitz and Rolly Tasker. I can't remember that Sam ever bought sails for "The Picklet Herring" from Rolly Tasker. NBJS, Erik Aanderraa have bought new sails at Rolly Tasker.

    Sam has my favorite YT sailing channel. He is such a likeable guy who sails on the cheap, knows how to repair almost anything and has sailed some great journeys. His charm tends to land him "a girl in every port" but his current Norweigan gf seems to have him entranced, at least for now. I was concerned though when he sailed to Hawaii that his 23 foot boat didn't have enough boyancy to stay afloat with his giant brass balls. The only negative critique I have is that he sailed across the Atlantic without a dingy or emergency life raft to keep him out of the water and provide a much higher chance of rescue if his sailboat sank.

    I like Sam's channel but, if I were a person searching for a place to promote my product, his channel wouldn't be on my list. The dude is kinda unfair with on products he recieves from companies. Last time I saw him complaining about a new winch that he received from Lewmar, it wasn't working properly. Every fine product without the necessary maintenance won't work forever.
