Hi Garrett! We used to own your boat. The engine was not installed in 2018. 2013 sounds about right. It's so nice to see her being enjoyed and it looks like a good fit for you! If you have any questions about her past I'd be happy to help. Fuel tank was replaced with the engine. Stainless steel glasses over. We have another Lyle Hess design now. A BCC 28.
Just surfing through the web and found your site. I have done much of what you are doing and watching your videos lets me relive my adventures. Thank you for that. I am 64 now, not too old, and probably much more agile than others of my generation, but don't have the way or means to cruz. My days today are in the mountains/Forrest where I teach snow skiing, go snowmobiling, dirt-biking and mountaineering. But I can't help but dream of days gone by under the hot sun, warm water, green jungles, fresh waterfalls and white sands. Be safe-Cheers!!!!!
Hey Garrett. When first installing your motor, not sure if you attached a 'saftey chain.' If not, make sure you do. Anything can work, even a small length of rope attaching the motor to the transom. If the motor ever comes unattached, it's gone. You'll never regret putting one on. Great video!
You're certainly living my dream amigo. I'm nearly 60 so it's not going to happen, but I'll say this, watching you do it helps to ease this yearning. One lifetime seems enough. It sure is when I'm hauling firewood or fixing the stone walls in the yard. How wonderful to have these videos of your adventures!
Yeah, everything is horribly expensive here other than some subsidized French cheeses and such. Looking forwards to getting to Fiji/Southeast Asia for that reason
I really like how you explain what you’re doing and why, I’m interested in learning to sail myself and I love learning everything about it. Keep up the good work mate 🤙🏼
Thanks for posting, Garrett ... always enjoy your videos ... hard to believe that you're only 19 or 20 years old! And the music at the end flowed-in very well. Wow, just noticed that you're over 100k subs ... good job!
Just found your channel a few days ago. I am hooked! Keep it up and please keep providing great adventure content! This is some of the best sailing/adventure content I have come across. You're not some arrogant model who is helped by 20 people just to make your videos look good. They are raw and I feel like I'm right there with you. Ma'halow brother!
Hey Garret, some advice for the engine on the tender, put a padlock or shackle through they holes on the tightening lugs, many an engine has been lost when it's come loose mid trip.
Wow this is the 2nd of yours that I’ve watched now. I’m really enjoying watching. Happens to be that I’m currently in Puerto Rico spending lots of time in the water and thinking about what you are DOING! I’m envious! Thanks for the videos
The real Chuck Noland ! Garrett you are a true explorer. Great watching your travel videos. As I cant believe you are doing this all alone. Wish you safe travels and bring some of the west system for any urgent fiberglass repairs.
You belong on the sea. So smart to make your dreams come true. Your doing what people dream of. Your a brave man on his own be proud of your self. Love your channel it makes me happy! ⛵️
I have dreamt of FP since I was a kid. Didn't make it there until I was almost 40. Visited Rangi during my first trip and have been making sure to include it on the following trips. Did the drift dive thru the pass several times. Even snorkelled on my own once, jumping in from the outer reef and going in with the current. Great experience, but probably much to dangerous to recommend. Thanks for sharing and enjoy!
I worked at sea for a while stopt because of the kids. Now that ive watched all your videos it feels like im also living on a ship again . Very good content thanks
Sailing around the world has been dream for years. My dad was a sailer and I went out with him sometimes but he’s not in my life anymore so I lose all hope but you really inspire me
when you have someone on your boat, you should introduce them interview them a little bit. It’s always very interesting for all of us that love watching you and you would get many more Patreon.
YESSS! Got covid yesterday and watched your most recent video in the middle of the night as I fevered away. Now I have one for tonight. Safe travels dude!
Thanks for the update Garrett! It’s been riveting to follow your adventures by far and I’m thirsty for more 🎉 Could you tell us briefly about your companion and why you parted as unexpectedly as you teamed up?
I was in the South Pacific 20 years ago for 4 months working with a marine research group. Looks like the Coral bleaching has continued. But the pass dive into Rangiroa was incredible! Enjoy those warm waters. Have a Hinano for me. 🦈
This has quickly become my favorite TH-cam channel! Any advice for someone considering pursuing this lifestyle? What do you do for income to be able to do this? Much love and good wishes my guy!
Late to this episode but when Garrett using those floaties to keep the chain off the seabed, doesn’t that go against the purpose of the chain? I thought the chain was as important as the anchor in holding to the seabed
Great video. Love the underwater shots you can see so much. If I may ask what camera do you use for the underwater sequences. Garrett thanks for sharing your journey with us all. James.
Be sure to take the time (and effort) to sail down the Abel Tasman National park down near Nelson. You've missed the summer season, but man, that place is literally paradise. Clear clear skies, sheltered coves and easy navigation. Anchor your yacht there and enjoy life for a while.
Thank you. You taught me more about anchoring in corals. I have never tried floats. And your new dinghy's design is smart. What's the drawback? Seems to keep its nose up.
Was this where crab rave was filmed
Yes.
@@garrettsadventurenext time show us the market,it's selection,and how it looks inside.how do they survive.
@@JohnnyDanger36963 Agreed, I would love some more clips of the islands he lands on and the local area but in a respectful way of course

Wow! Can I call you? Email me garrett@garrettsadventure.com
@@garrettsadventure great connection to make!
I know it's a normal thing but it's so funny how you call it a "her" haha
Wow. TH-cam spiritual bulldozing!!!
Wow, amazing history.

Love seeing another video uploaded my friend, truly a pleasure watching you explore
Wow Garrett!! Massive respect to you dude, you are living the life many of us never will
Cheers man!
So beautiful, love the dive shots. Feels like I am there, I look forward to diving in the South Pacific someday. Good sailing Garret and fair winds.
Glad you liked them, I was happy with how they turned out

Garrett has never missed. Every video is a banger!
You are one of the easiest people to watch because you stay true to yourself. Love the videos. Much love from Texas
Garrett, we are right proud of you. Best of luck and smooth, safe sailing. You have exceptional content!
Thank you Aunt Sherol!
Aw man. RIP "crewmate", we hardly knew ye.
That was an expensive stop, lol. Keep updating us on your adventure of a lifetime!
Yeah, everything is horribly expensive here other than some subsidized French cheeses and such. Looking forwards to getting to Fiji/Southeast Asia for that reason
Great stuff, Garrett! Thanks for sharing your amazing adventure.
Thanks for watching
Wow. Amazing footage. How nice to see the boat and dinghy performing well.
Carry on the adventures. Cheers.
Many thanks!

Just discovered your channel today and watched all of your videos! Great stuff, keep it up!
Watching you scuba was like swimming in a giant aquarium. Beautiful!
really love the videos, glad to see you doing well, and I think you'll love it here in New Zealand!
Great video Garrett. Coral diving is amazing. I bet there was quite a racket from all the parrotfish chomping on the coral.
Subscribed! Great channel. I’m loving the content and humour.
Love the content man, super envious of the scenery you get to experience day to day. Stay safe out there homie!
Thanks! Will do!

Thanks bro! My childhood dreams of seas, oceans and distant lands come true on your channel.
I love these videos!!!! Keep uploading all of your adventures.
Very brave, young man, courageous and exceptional vlog. I see you’ve left Hawaii but looks like I’m along for the adventure! 🌞
Im so happy your channel is getting traction, I hope you can live the life you want off the back of it.
My day is always better seeing you have a new video!
Great to see a young bloke living the dream
I worked at sea for a while stopt because of the kids. Now that ive watched all your videos it feels like im also living on a ship again . Very good content thanks
Just saw your channel. I live on Guam ❤ these places look so much like here.
Just a lifelong dream...and your doing it....big big props to you sir....
Sailing around the world has been dream for years. My dad was a sailer and I went out with him sometimes but he’s not in my life anymore so I lose all hope but you really inspire me
Great video always makes my day when I see a new upload ❤️🙌
Good to hear, I'm glad you like them
Really digging your videos dude. Cant wait to see upcoming adventures. Also obligatory, your 3 part adventure was fucking epic. Cheers!
Watching this whilst working from home, sitting in front of a screen looking at spreadsheets. This fellow is living the dream.
So good to see your adventures continue. Great work, G.
Pleasure to watch. Thx
You are amazing! nice to see some Atoll footage too. :) keep going!
All the best!
when you have someone on your boat, you should introduce them interview them a little bit. It’s always very interesting for all of us that love watching you and you would get many more Patreon.
Yes agree, only saw little snippets of someone who looked interesting.
Maybe prob she doesn't want to be in video
Strong disagree.
Look at those wicked fast bowline knot skills!!!
I think not hahaha
Exploring Atolls in the south pacific would be a dream come true for me, enjoy every minute dude
You're walking through my home town area, I love it!
This channel is incredible. Can’t wait for the next video. You’re going to blow up soon
Thanks a ton!
Incredible content. Very inspirational. I used to sail a lot when I was younger but haven't in years now. Maybe I'll have to get back into it...
Thanks dude. I love seeing your travels.
We love when Garrett drops the latest hit! Keep them coming Lord of the Sea
bro i amazed to the place you go to.. pretty amazing,... island, beaches, in the nature asome bro... and i like your yatch too, 😊❤❤
Great underwater scenery!!!
YESSS! Got covid yesterday and watched your most recent video in the middle of the night as I fevered away. Now I have one for tonight. Safe travels dude!
Feel better soon!
Thanks for the update Garrett! It’s been riveting to follow your adventures by far and I’m thirsty for more 🎉 Could you tell us briefly about your companion and why you parted as unexpectedly as you teamed up?
I was in the South Pacific 20 years ago for 4 months working with a marine research group. Looks like the Coral bleaching has continued. But the pass dive into Rangiroa was incredible! Enjoy those warm waters. Have a Hinano for me. 🦈
I was going to ask the health of the coral in the area. Looks mostly dead unfortunately. The state of the coral doesn’t get enough attention.
Partially bleached, but pristine compared to Hawaii.
This has quickly become my favorite TH-cam channel! Any advice for someone considering pursuing this lifestyle? What do you do for income to be able to do this? Much love and good wishes my guy!
Beautiful footage. Keep up the
amazing videos!
Great life, keep on keeping on sailor, find the free as it is! Good health to you!
Great seeing an update so soon!
Very good UW pics, Garrett!
Appreciate it! I was happy with how they turned out as well
Late to this episode but when Garrett using those floaties to keep the chain off the seabed, doesn’t that go against the purpose of the chain? I thought the chain was as important as the anchor in holding to the seabed
Hi ,I love your movies , what brand is your diving mask you are using ,thank you
Love your content, bro.
Its been a while since i found something so genuine in Yt keep up
I subbed, I like the explanations of the things you are doing. 👍👍
Don't forget you are in the palm of the universe, so lucky.
Incredible underwater footage! Wow!
Sailing is hard on the skin. Keep up the good work!
That gray fuel line gonna give you problems in the immediate future. Replace
Great video. Love the underwater shots you can see so much. If I may ask what camera do you use for the underwater sequences. Garrett thanks for sharing your journey with us all. James.
Thanks James! All of the underwater footage was on a GoPro 10
Great videos! Thanks for taking the time, I’ll probably never get to do this but i can dream..
That water is amazing!!
