Pam really loved Andy. I imagine she's back sailing with him again. Pam will live on in the mind of all she inspired. Thanks Pam for being you.
The beautiful sailboat of the times when the Swan had not evolved into a Vulture.
Oh wow, I've been listening to your podcasts for quite a while, but for some reason haven never seen your CZcams channel until now. It's great to put a face to the voice I've heard for so long. One of these days I'd love to sail with you guys. I'll have to look at your itinerary. I have family in Karlskrona that I've never visited. Maybe I can somehow combine the two activities at some point. Cheers!
Wonderful interview thanks August and Ian. Looking forward to part two
Really enjoy your podcasts Andy. Thanks for taking the time to do them.
As an older female sailor I love that opportunities like this venture are possible for today's young women. We've come such a long way since the 60s ad 70s. Wishing Emma all the best with this and anything else she chooses to do ❤
Great interview!! ⛵
Jurassic Park was also one of the first "adult" books I read, had a huge influence on me. Also Malcolm using Chaos Theory to try to seduce Dr Sattler was hilarious 😂
Id love to join one of these crews someday. The teachings are exceptional.
Truly inspiring
Thanks! I wanted to see the boat on the outside.
Excellent
We have a ketch and our radar is mounted on the mizzen mast. Such a luxury to have a ketch.
Just found your podcast looking for tips on setting up a night watch routine. Looking forward to listening.
Another great podcast gents. Lots of good examples of sailing at night and I especially enjoyed the bits on the English Channel having been brought up as a very small child crossing from England in all weathers visibility and from the late 60,s so pre gps and the magical AIS days. My must have piece of equipment was a hand bearing compass always dangling around my neck to enable course and position checks and judging whether ships would go behind or in front of you day and night. I still believe that being able to navigate and sail by sight feel and calculation is so much more rewarding than just following what the electronics tell you to do, though I don't blame people to not bother as it seems so much easier.
I just learned a lot about my new boat by watching this. Thanks.
New to the channel. Andy's a heck of a skipper. Excellent CRM. Tons of good teaching.
Great interview. Thank you both! 🙏
Dyneema dux!!!!! Nice
Love this episode. We’re looking to do this in the summer of ‘24 on our Garcia Exploration. We know 3 other couples who also did this trip and have input as well. Would love to hear your insights and prep for your trip.
A drug running boat know that’s a lot of kilos that boat probably hauled 👍
The name Ísbjörn is also the name we use for Polar bear in Iceland.
Coke smuggling
To be honest this is a total rip off you tube is all about videos I almost added a dislike
Come on, let's do this..... get Holy Martin on for an interview. She's a bluewater gangster!!!!!!!
22:24 spot on. beautiful boat Mrs Pam 😊
Great video!
Good show! 😊👍
Great Video! Very Motivating! I love the layout of your curriculum.
Great to see some video content from onboard FALKEN! Would love to have a video walkthrough of the boat with commentary about intentional decisions and lessons learned from the refit.
There's a great tour Andy and Mia did on Yachting World's channel: czcams.com/video/xy7FHR5fBMQ/video.html
“One two heave” ? “Two-six heave” 😉
I can't agree more that it's of interest to look at the predicted conditions for your area, but it's almost more important... may be more important, to understand what drives that local climate and wind condition. Northern California is actually fairly predictable IF you understand the broader pacific patterns. For that area specifically, the challenge isn't low pressure systems, but rather high pressure systems that compress against the coast. So you're actually not worried as much about lows, but a big high that doesn't come ashore and lingers off the coast. For those who pay attention to those broader patterns, you can actually stretch a forecast to 4-5 days of confidence, even if not certainty.
Its great to hear you work out the validity of forecasts, thanks for that. One thing though, climate science deals with generalities, much like seasonal differences, and it is scientifically valid to make predictions about general trends, even if those trends have variation within them. However it is much harder to produce detailed forecasts, which are the ones us sailors are interested in.
The old sailors used to say “Mares' tails and fish scales" - "Carry low sails". Horse tails and patchy cirrocumulus signal that a rain storm is on its way. the other one I rely on is "Red Sky at Night, Sailors Delight" - "Red Sky in the Morning, Sailor take Warning". Or better yet use barometer as August suggested.
Great talk guys! Firecrackers ARE the way. That's what every boat owner in Spain and Portugal knows already. It is illegal though, so not everyone will admit the use of them. Facebook groups and webpages are great resources and should be used by all sailors, but eventually you will be the first one to sight the orcas... And then your boat and crew safety might be on the line. Not sailing for months on end (during summertime, nonetheless), is not a solution for the people living around here. And definitely not everyone can have spare rudders like that company in morocco 😂 Some people here blame the "orca tours" of feeding them, as the root of the problem, others blame attacks from fishermen... I supose we will never know 🤔 I believe that we (as sailors) should try to explain to everyone that the use of firecrackers is the last thing we would like to do, but we have to defend our boats/crew. And it's not like we go out there looking for the orcas to throw firecrackers on their head!! Hopefully, with the continued use of firecrackers orcas will eventually learn to not munch on our rudders. 🤞🏻
Some whaling might be practical.
Are the 7 inches you are talking about the GNX 120?
To each their own I guess. Not a fan of Garmin at all. I want to like them, I just don't
Wow, the whales are enormous, as big as a whale in fact. The view from the drone really makes you realise how big they actually are. Breathtaking!
It was great meeting up at the Annapolis Sailboat Show, Andy! Thanks for the interview. It is always a pleasure chatting with you and catching up on your adventures too!
Enetertaining chat! Looking foward to hearing the end. Last 15 minutes is missing.
Thanks for the fantastic presentation! And yes, arctic sailing is something else!
What's name of the book Andy talk about on 41%minutes interview?
Just found this video. Nice to see what I consider the correct approach to sailboat ownership. Very competent sailors. Just subscribed.
Funny stories 😂. I sit here in my salon, and on my left, on the bookshelf is Heavy Weather Sailing…..
My favorite podcast interviews my favorite sailing vlogger! Thanks for sharing James.
Sailor James - sweet
So everything that was mentioned that has to do with this trip which I was lucky enough to be a part of, I agree 100% with what was said. Greenland does feel like another planet and so beautiful that it doesn’t make sense how beautiful it is. The crew was totally awesome! And btw we need to do a reunion tour. And we totally need a support group! 59 North set that up please 😂
Hello James, when are you going back to the SV. I check predict wind to see you but no go yet . Go catch windhippie. Peace brother
I will be flying back to Triteia next week, doing some boat projects then I start sailing south towards the Sounds. I plan on sailing to Tasmania so I won’t be seeing Holly again until later next year when I catch up with them.
