So I started watching you guys at Episode 67 and watched up to 72. Then I went back to where you got the free boat and watched every episode so now I am caught up. Fantastic job and please don’t change a thing about the way you present your episodes or yourselves.
Just finished binge watching all of the freebie videos to date. You guys have me wanting to get my own sail boat. Sadly no clue what I would be getting myself into, at least as far as laws and requirements are concerned. The work I don’t think I would have an issue with, with the exception of the electrical. Love the channel!
Aussie here. Bacon on a doughnut ... WTF!!!??? maple syrup, bacon, doughnut....I can see the attraction to that, but jeeeeez you Americans love to take it to the next level. :0)
"A BRIEF REMINISCENCE OF KEY WEST FORTY YEARS AGO." I lived in Key West during the winter of 1981. I was fourteen years old and lived with my parents on a sailboat anchored outside of Garrison Bight. Key West was "A LOT!!!" different back then. First of all, the anchorage that we were in was empty. We were practically the only boat there for the entire winter, if you can believe that! Now, it's a totally overcrowded mooring field that you have to pay to stay in. Back then, Sunset Key was completely undeveloped. Hippies would sail out there at night and build bon fires on the beach and party. Fleming Key was still an active Navy base. Among other things, it was a training ground for Navy Frogmen. We would occasionally see them from our boat. Zodiacs would fly across the water at top speed while Navy Frogmen would fall out backwards in full scuba gear to complete their training regimens. It was a total trip to watch, especially for a fourteen year old kid. There were two movie theaters on Front Street near the intersection of Duval. One was an X-rated Theater the other was an Art-House Theater. I remember watching a lot of Reggae Films from the 70's there with my parents. Jamaica had elected a leftist government in the early 70's and Reggae music had recently emerged from the underground to gain popular mainstream appeal. I don't remember any cruise ships there either. At the time, it all seemed mundane and everyday, but looking back from the vantage point of forty years into the future, those were heady times and the times were rapidly a changin'!
I just happened to be eating a donut when I watched this. My wife looks good in jeans too, Randy. From the back it looks like two possums fighting to get out of a gunnysack.
Cool, in your opening sequence Randi appears to quoting a scene from James Bond Quantum of Solace, although without the British accent, "Oh my gosh", Gemma Arterton's character Strawberry Fields.
Nice friday video. Once the boat is done and you've done a few years of cruising, remodeling an OLD house would make a great channel. I've never made it to Key West, but this part looked pretty cool, not too touristy. Any idea what that plant was? Never seen anything like it, reminded me a bit of a cactus.
We'll definitely be filming any old house remodels in the future! I'm not sure what it was, although I believe I've seen them before, just not that big.
Those donuts looked fantastic. Bacon maple glazed are scrumptious! If you ever get to Portland, Oregon, go to VooDoo Donuts. It'll blow your mind and your taste buds. Have a good weekend guys.
Wow, Randi really was in a hurry to get to that donut shop! She looked really good in those jeans too! The donuts looked well worth the jaunt! Interesting that she will be "working" for a few weeks, online job? As for needing extra $ in the budget, a boat is always in a continuous refit isnt' it?
She's right it a good first test of a donut shop. On a different subject have anyone giving any thought to having patches that can be sew on, This way subs and patrons can have a cruiser jacket and show support for all the channels followed at same time and not just 1 or 2 as in shirt, hat or medal?
@@LearningtheLines I could wear one on my moped, yeah!!! Actually a good idea. Now just to get the other channels to make patches. I'm too old to sail, but I watch y'all a lot.
You never said during the video what kind of work is Randy doing now? Is she going back to teaching in some way? Just a little bit Curious about how you guys are handling life aboard a boat.
Aye m8’s, Love your humour 🎬 How many times have you discussed to go steaming a sternwheeler paddleboat? Then you can combine French Creole architecture, live aboard, boating etc. 😉 But not go sailing in the ocean ⛵️😔
I know what you mean, I lived on Simonton street, one block off of Duval, in the late 70ds and early 80ds! It is very commercialised now. Still a very cool town!!

@@jamestaylor3075 You are so right , I think the cruse ships started in late 81 early 82. That was the start of the commercialization of a really wonderful town!
Abandon Comfort. A name I have not heard in a while. Are they still sailing or have they moved on to something else? I enjoyed watching them. Too bad you have to go back to work, but at least it's in a nice warm climate, and not MN type weather.
Why don’t you have your boat Documentated through the USCG, I think it would cheaper than paying a yearly license fee to the state of FL. I inspected several boats on the Ohio River for USCG documentation all the owners said itway less expensive to do documentation than to pay all the fees associated with various state registration. That was 10 years ago maybe things have changed.

Thank you! We definitely appreciate the kind words. :)
It will be fun to see what a free boat cost!
I was just in key west for the first time this past weekend! Loved it down there! We will be back!
Donuts then a big lunch? You are gonna need a bigger boat! Thanks for the walking tour, brings back memories.
I also love the Victorian houses with the wrap around porches.

I was born and raised in KW it was great seeing some of places of my home town
You walked right past our back door! Seriously. Hope you enjoyed your time in Key West, We enjoy your channel.
You must love living in Key West!
It's good to see you have your priorites straight. First donuts and then the paper work. Ha !!!
Right???
You guys are doing great! Love watching/seeing your videos! Calm sees and smooth winds! 🎏🏝⛵😎
Love key West. It's so relaxing there. That new camera is fire as well. Thanks for the video.
i have been renovating a arts&crafts bungalow 1919 home, it's a lot more work then you'd believe.
Aussie here.
Bacon on a doughnut ... WTF!!!???
maple syrup, bacon, doughnut....I can see the attraction to that, but jeeeeez you Americans love to take it to the next level.
:0)
It's becoming a pretty common doughnut flavor here. If you can find it anywhere, try it! lol
Just wondering the same.. is it a breakfest thing or a really sweet dessert? or both...
It's no different than eating pancakes with maple syrup and a few slices of bacon and/or sausage.
@@toliver66 cheers mate :0)
@@karisalonen8984 the American answer to that question is yes....
Haha Jordan the boat you pointed at was my boat for 5 years in the CG. Come up to NJ when we launch the new boat in Cape May and I’ll get you on one.
Sounds like a plan!
Why are you complaining about walking behind her.... enjoy !

Awesome video guys! Those doughnuts looked delicious.
For anyone who's interested, the word 'Donut' was spoken a nice, even 20 times.
It’s so quiet in key west in the AM... if only you could hear the groans of everyone who just fell asleep 3 hrs before.
Love KW, spent a couple winters there RVing on Sigsbee Navy's rv park.
Nice post, I love the Keys, I will try that donut place.
I like the houses too. I'm always renovating a house. In Central Queensland I have a large range of "Queenslanders" to work on.
I just happened to be eating a donut when I watched this. My wife looks good in jeans too, Randy. From the back it looks like two possums fighting to get out of a gunnysack.
New camera looks REALLY GOOD guys! Very exciting. Not sure I needed the extra definition for that bacon donut though

👍👍Nice Video!
I do love a puff pastry.
So what you all Need is a BIG old 1890's-1920's house beside or close to a Boatyard,LOL!
I'd love to visit Pooper's town...
I'll walk myself out.
Love eggs Benedict ! My favorite
New camera looks great!
Great video. Hope you do a marina tour video. What is the job market like in the keys?
I love Schneiders in Coop. was there last week. Is that where you guys are from? First time watching. I'm in Unadilla but lived in KW a while ago.
Nice life though! Enjoy

I have had too much fun on Duval St. .
What camera are you using? Very nice.
I should not have watched that before I had breakfast - particularly as I only have muesli in the house and I am over 4,000 miles from Key West.
I wish I had my own Randi
Whats your new camera ?

Steve Angell They just posted a video from Japan. Their boat will be on Craigslist by the end of summer.......
@@johnf8877 Hopefully they haven't ruined that beautiful classic boat yet.
More like Abandon Cruising.
What is the job?
Why don’t you have your boat

some states you still have to pay the license fee with a uscg documented boat. It's that way in Michigan...
short videos are nice
What kind of work?
You should have brought the skate boards.I still think that is a great idea for transportation.
We should have! Lots of people were skating in Key West.
Was that the doughnut place next to the movie theater with the stature of Marilyn Monroe?
that all
😍
just live your life do the thjng you love....all or you two...lolz
You should go relax at next hot yoga in Whitehead St, it's so close to where you were today!
Wauw, she's beautiful. No disrespect, off course:)
Are you doing enough exercise to work off all those calories????
First! I think!
You win!
Look up doctor greger on utube.
Aponments are not valid in keywest. Its about the day not the time
Lol she says she isn't walking fast... her hair streaming behind her proves this to be a lie....
Lol right???
Definitely boring
Donuts are about the worst thing you can eat. Zero nutritional value and empty calories. But at least your lunch looked tasty.
