Thank you for sharing. We miss you guys.
Glad to see ya'll safe out there.
We here in Hawaii are still waiting for help from the Government.
On Maui it's Bad. People are still sleeping in the streets. And Fema is staying in 5 star hotels. This is so wrong!
Until next time Aloha
Aloha. Sorry... that's terrible. I don't understand how everything there can get back on track any time soon. You guys have it bad. But at least you made it out alive!
Great channel, wonderful people, excellent content; very real. Thanks for sharing!!! Fellow Jeepers!
I was thinking about you guys. Glad it all went well.
Love it dude, from sailboating to storm chasing. Im in hernando county
Broadwater in St. Petersburg has been a pretty safe haven for the 23 years I've been here. No water ever up to the top of the sea walls. I believe we have the highest sea walls in the area. Glad you guys made it through with no issues.
Thanks for sharing, have been wondering how you guys are doing. Looking forward to your future sailing and boat diy.
Thanks for watching.
Yeah, the heat is keeping me from sailing as well. I'm out in the Davis Island basin.
Thanks for your update!
Glad you both and your boat was safe.
Glad Envision made it ok. It’s funny you noticed that Precision 19 because every time I walk buy tha boat I think to myself, “what a cute little sailboat” I noticed in your pre-storm walk that it was still there so I was looking for it in your post walk then you pointed it out. Those wood platform looking things you showed at the end is the ramp for the youth sailing club to wheel their boats to the water. Looks like those will have to be fixed once the new boat shed is finished.
yea, I want to take that Precision for a sail. I actually think that might be the perfect boat for sailing around back in the shallows. It would be like having 10x the sailing area I have for Envision, unless I add two hours for out and back to the gulf. At this point I'd rather be sailing in 10 minutes in a simple boat like that.
Just got done with it Melbourne FL, i live on s floating dock. But all was good. Plus i was babysitting a 500k catamaran. It is was hairy for a momen with boats dragging but we faired well. I like your new style commentairy that worked really well with you both! Awsome vid
I live just north east of Tampa lucky for me my sailboat is on it’s trailer and it was fine.
I was thinking of you guys before the hurricane. Glad you are OK, and the boat is fine.
Thank you!
My nephew stayed aboard his boat on the Manatee river throughout the storm. When asked why, he stated "so he would still have a boat after the storm passed". He took a couple of short videos and posted them on FB. Very windy there as well as storm surge.
Good luck!
Tampas pretty safe. So is the bend. That last one was just bad luck.
Country foke though. Bounced back already pretty much
We had my sister in law and brother in law here with us fro. Hernando beach they have a stilt house on the water there woth 5 ft. From the dock to ground level still got 2 ft of water in the gsrage took out their garage refrigerator and washing machine still all in all
glad your boat survived
When I saw that the storm was going to land in the Big Bend area my first thought was “I hope Envision escapes this one as well as she did the last one that came through”!!
Thanks!!
Take care
Glad to see you were fine. Our O’Day 272LE is down in Gulfport. Haven’t gotten down there yet, but a slip mate sent a pic and says she looks ok. Also, curious, did you switch slips?
Thanks. Due to some marina construction, they moved us temporarily. ironically, into the same area we're on a waiting list for... a bigger slip so we can get a larger boat. But we will go back to the smaller slip when they're done building.
Ideally, you’d tie your lines to your neighbor cleats and vice versa so you could keep the boat centered and give it enough line to rise and fall. Your spring lines should be good, but double up on all lines. (I keep my hurricane lines out of the sun and use only for storms.) Those uprights on the catwalks seemed like a good idea at the time, but are now a liability. You need chafing gear, but there doesn’t seem to be a consensus on what’s best to use. The number one thing is to take down roller furling jibs!
I did all that for other hurricanes but this one we were not getting as high of high winds, just surge. Keep in mind, I'm over at our marina messing with my sailboat doing prep - even took off both sails for the last hurricanee before this one (it's one of our videos) while other boats have the same old falling apart lines that were on it 5 years ago, with nothing adjusted, bimini tops still up, it's the same at both marinas we've been at.
Yeah, my reply was meant for the general sailboat owning population. It never fails to amaze me how little prep most people do. If they just took their roller furling jibs off, it would reduce risk for their boat and other boats.
Glad you and your boat are good. You're right, lucky twice!
Glad you escaped Ny damage strange because i thought about you earlier today as i was watching bay news 9 yes we dodged the bullet again we didn't even lose power here in st pete
Yes, lucky folks. zYour O Day sits well at berth. Hows the engine problem looking?
What the heck kind of boat is that at 13:13?
Glad you guys didn't get a direct hit.
Best place to be in a big H is have your boat hauled and be somewhere else 😮
Glad y’all are okay?!
I made a CZcams video of our boat prepping for that storm my production is no where near as good as yours but I'm just really getting started. Hope our paths cross soon.
I couldn’t get to my sailboat in Port Hudson Marina today. It’s flooded all the way to almost Hwy 19.
I saw some homes were flooded there. One of our marina neighbors has a webcam on his boat and said he could see it the whole time, that would be nice to be able to check your boat from home.
are these all shot on your phone? My harbour makes a mandatory evac whenever a storm comes....I'm surprised y'alls doesn't.
I typically don't shoot anything on my phone, it's usually all Gopro Hero 10, but one scene, where I remove the dodger, was my phone since forgot my camera that day. Our marina said all live aboards must leave. Are you saying they make you take out the boats? There are such limited haul out's around here that unless you call the day before the storm is named it's not going to happen.
why anyone lives in florida is beyond me all you hear is bad extreme weather and earthquakes and fires
LOL, true! We don't have earthquakes and the fires are in California, but yes, we are in the path of a few hurricanes each year. Those of us that live in Florida would tell people that it's definitely terrible, so please don't move here. The only thing making is worse is everyone moving here.
Keep the faith it will be ok 👌🏽
How much for a 40 ft slip at your marina?
no 40's so it would have to be a 50'. 5 year waiting list, for a non-resident somewhere around $700. Residents pay half that rate. Seems like a lot more boats out there but not more marinas.
@@AdventuresInParadise thanks similar for west coast plus 200.00 and lots of rules in the 90s it was epic
San Diego area …
5 yr plus unless buying a boat with. Slip
@@AdventuresInParadise a recession will cure that
Rinse your jeep with fresh water after driving in the ocean
Good tip, but I made sure not to go fast enough to even get any salt water on it... I could have driven on the flooded roads but I know better! I learned my lesson with a bike in the ocean once.
Getting ready to hit me in North Carolina. As a livaboard. I'm staying at a hotel.
hope you sprayed off your jeep after driving through all that salt water. Otherwise, you will be fighting rust forever in that vehicle.
The only thing that got salt water on it was the tires as I went slow and didn't drive in anything else and didn't splash it. Also, I drove through torrential rain storms for the next 30 minutes.
@@AdventuresInParadise I see people launching their jet skis on the causeway and I cringe when I see the back end of the Jeep in the water.
Glad you had the rainstorm to rinse off with. 😊
Yep don't move here if you don't have a stomach for hurricane. I moved here end of 2009 after losing all from the financial collapse 2009. I have been through quite a few with a closed call a few times too. I am looking to get out of here. Global warming will make living in FL unbearable.
The reality is people still. move here as one moves out another moves in and eventually FL will be under water completely unlivable. That won't happen yet in our lifetime but eventually it will.
As i write this few days after the hurricane another one is brewing up. August to November is hurricane season in Fl in case you don't know.
