When he said he was working on the boat I thought he said I’m working on the book I thought wow this guy is writing a book about sailing . Or maybe a romance novel😀👍
I’ll give that Filmora software a try. I presume that they must have a trial offer. I’m ready to create, I just need a boat, beautiful women and a tropical location!
It looks like a great tool. I’ll have to see the pricing. Just ended my Adobe subscription. A bit too expensive and elaborate as I’m only starting to learn editting. You make your video’s look really good with this program!
I’d highly recommend his beginning videos from several years ago. A fascinating story of what happened and how he started off with selling most of his stuff, buying a sail boat, and hitting the high seas with his two pups. 🌞🌊⛵️🐕 🐕🌊
Highly seeing his story from the start great story and inspiring as he learned to sail and do repairs from scratch. The dogs were so much of the story back then. Those whiners and complainers don/t know what he went thru to get to today. Enjoy your ride Bobby , you have earned every second.
Another awesum video Captain Bobby !! I felt bad for Taylor when she got hurt but she is a trooper !! She is So Beautiful inside and out and is a great asset to your crew...... Syd is also beautiful and has a awesum sense of humor, she cracks me up. Such great chemistry on the boat !!! 😎
you can charge both with 12v with a battery isolator, it allows the charge to hit both batteries at 12v individually, many options for this, most boats that run 24v trolling motors run this sort of isolater to charge both batteries from the engine and yet still be able to run 24v trolling motor.
That's the first time I have heard how you started. I am glad you recovered and I am even happier you rediscovered your new life on the water. Everything happens for a reason!
You can charge each battery at the same time by running 12v to each battery and it will work fine. Electrical circuits are relative even though your bow thruster is a 24v system.
Same here what they said, only problem is that one battery could be bad and the charger will see the good voltage and shut charge off because it thinks it done. But it will work to get you by for now without the need to change the charge wires each time.
Take some 120 grit with a sanding block and dull all the edges of the foil that are sharp. It wont affect performance of the foil but will save some. skin. They can still bite you after but it will be more of a scratch and bruise than a cut. Part of foiling is also knowing how to get off without landing on the foil. Beginners should practice wing handling on a stand up before the foil board. It is also a very good idea to learn how to foil behind a boat or on kite before you try the wing and foil together.
You need Nu Skin (liquid bandage) in your first aid kit. It's a liquid bandage with antiseptic and your healing time is greatly improved over just a plain cloth bandage. I've used it on myself in times I probably should have had stiches.
Mike, Taylor make sure you rinse out the wound with clean freshwater. Use a triple strength antibiotic. Super glue was designed by the military for field use in wounds, but now there is a medical grade super glue. See if you can add that to your first aid kits on your boats. Hoping everyone is doing well.
Or i am thinking too even just some old fashioned deck grip as that board looks slippery as, just checking Bobby do you wax it before using it? Looks like it’s really hard to get grip as well as being razer sharp
On the thruster battery situation… if the 12v charger is a two bank charger, just connect one bank to each battery. It’s not ideal but will work. Just don’t run the thruster and the charger at the same time. For a 24v charger, get yourself a Victron Bluesmart 24v 8 amp charger from Amazon. About $135 plus whatever the shipping charge is to the USVI. It’s what I use on my boat with my 24v bow thruster.
Aw crap! Bobby broke Taylor!!!!!!!!!! He's right T, use superglue on the cut. As Monty P says" Its only a flesh wound", lol. aw damn! he broke another guest!!!! hoping he's got more than one first aid kit.
Run two separate charging cables to each battery. That way the charger sees 2 12 v batteries. That is the way some bank chargers work, even if you use the batteries as 24 volts, you charge them as 12V. It actually helps to keep the batteries better balanced!
an isolatoris what you need, and some wiring from your alternator to your isolator than to your two batteries is all you need to charge both batteries 12volts safely while using your boat.we enjoy watching your show, keep up the good work.
Bobby, How about a cigar episode? What cigars do you like? Is keeping the humidor at the right humidity more difficult on the boat? Are cigars cheaper where you are? Etc. Love the content.
I've been to Magens Bay a few times. It has been ranked multiple times as one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet. The hills that protect it form a great view. I was there after a hurricane some 20-ish years ago and even though the vegetation took a hit it was still very nice.
A little Tony's Chachere creole seasoning and some Sriracha hot sauce will make that alfredo sauce be awesome. Season and mix in well. Yummy... Also I think she had it right practicing on Oscar to figure out how to hold the Kite in the wind and gain balance. Either way it looks very difficult.
You could also parallel the batteries and charge both at once. If it's a really bad wind situation in a marina you might have to switch back to series with the batteries. But in most situations the thrust at 12v will work fine.
I’ve been out wing foiling dozens of times and I’ve never cut myself. I also wear wet suit pants. Anyway you have a small board which is hard to learn on. Have you guys tried learning on the SUP first just so you can learn how to handle the wing and get back to the boat? It’s a hard sport to learn but after a dozen sessions in windy flat water, you will start to get it. Once you figure it out, it’s awesome so keep on truckin’.
You know a pair of scuba boots or socks would probably prevent that. They come up over the ankles. When I first started learning to scuba dive I was taught to wear scuba socks aways with my fins. So there are pictures of me snorkeling in a swimsuit with scuba socks on. Although I have to say they are also awesome because the sand doesn't burn your feet. That and I am an albino so a pair of swim pants, a swim shirt long-sleeved with both scuba socks and scuba gloves, and a big hat and I am spot on ready for the beach! I tell you I am quite the sight to see at the beach!
The kite flies. Stop holding it up and let it lift you up instead. Bend you knees low in middle of the board. Tip one sail fin up to catch the wind. As it flies up, you stand up. Then, sail the boat.
Bobby, to accelerate the charging of the batteries, charge both in parallel instead of charging one at a time. You can us jumper cables or have some cables made specific for charging two batteries at the same time.
That hydrofoil board should have foot straps. I don't see how your feet will have enough friction to stay on when there is enough force to get up on a plane...
You don’t need foot straps for wing foiling especially if you’re learning because you need to move your feet around to find the balance point and right now they’re passing the board around.
@@rhett7716 yes you need them for a water start and jumping. I think they're fine once you know how to wing surf and once you know your board's balance point (which can still change depending on the foil size and the wind conditions).
@@martinomovies reckon u need them for some purchase otherwise they'll just keep gettin pulled off the board. anyway looks like they havent much of a clue, shud start on the paddle board and find some steady wind, way too gusty in there !
That 12 volt charger will charge the thruster batteries. You only nee 12 volts input. Your output is 24 volts based on the series wiring so the charger should be just fine.
Hey guys, I have one tip for you and the wing. you should start practicing the wing on the SUP. When you will be very confortable with the wing, it will be easier to learn the foiling. Cheers
We snorkeled there a few years ago. Interesting that there was no boats in the bay the day we were there (4 years ago). There is also a great hiking trail up the hillside to a lookout deck high up over the bay.
Unfortunately it is sad to see what has become of Magens Bay. As a native I remember that beach when it was a haven where everyone could relax and enjoy the relaxing view of a tranquil ocean all the way to the Inner Brass. Now with all those boats anchoring in the bay, that tranquil view is obstructed and now the bay looks like just another marina. Quite sad.
It looks like that kind of foil/kite surfing is as hard to learn to surf in small surf. One has to get the board moving for stability and then one will get the feel for it. Pick a day when there is steady stronger wind, and once the incumbent is moving the feel for it all will come. Good luck.
The Great Value brand is just as good as that one you’ll pay 5 dollars more a jar for. It’s just Wal-Marts brand which makes it much cheaper for us ordinary people!
What about a dedicated 24volt solar cell & controller? Sees like the perfect application for something that is not used regularly. Probably extend battery life too? Just a simple thought. All the best guys.
Demonetized because of a little cut that only required an onboard first aid kit?? That's a shame, and utterly ridiculous! Luckily, that salt water should have healed Taylor's wound in no time!
Bobby STOP, you don't need a 24Volt charger, you will damage your batteries as they are 12 volts and you can NOT use a 24Volt. You need a TWO banks 12 Volts charger instead. Hook all batteries independently of how you have them connected, parallel or series.
Can't you get some extra wire and parallel the charger to both battery's? that way the charger will see a single 12volt load that is actually both battery's instead of the series 24v load.
Just use a dual bank 12v charger. They are around 150 bucks and will work fine for that application. The MinnKota brand 20 amp, which is 10 amp per bank, are solid chargers and relitively inexpensive.
Im thinking scuba booties for safe foiling. Just a thought. BTW ive used filmora for the last year. Pretty simple to step away from for months. If your not editing all the time the relearning curve is short.

@@trubadorphotography2541 I second your recommendation!
Wow I had no idea he had a stroke...Glad he's living his best life out on the water!

Taylor....Taylor....Taylor.....adds so much. Her with Sid, now that's your A Team!!!!
Another awesum video Captain Bobby !! I felt bad for Taylor when she got hurt but she is a trooper !! She is So Beautiful inside and out and is a great asset to your crew......
Syd is also beautiful and has a awesum sense of humor, she cracks me up. Such great chemistry on the boat !!! 😎
Very jealous of your lifestyle. I wish you continued good health and many beautiful deckhands.
What an amazing place, those drone takes actually show you how beautiful it is...well done Bobby!!!

You can connect your cold water line to the hot water solenoid on your washing machine .
Then set it to hot water wash problem soled
That's the first time I have heard how you started. I am glad you recovered and I am even happier you rediscovered your new life on the water. Everything happens for a reason!
Underneath Taylor? My heart bleeds for you. You poor poor man. But we all know and respect your crew. It's a real quality set up.
Top stuff!
Nothing, but quality, pee pole!
You can charge each battery at the same time by running 12v to each battery and it will work fine. Electrical circuits are relative even though your bow thruster is a 24v system.
Exactly what I was wanting to mention. Takes a tad longer, if I'm wrong correct me, but will charge everything equally
Yes, I was going to recommend wiring a temporary parallel charging harness.
Same here what they said, only problem is that one battery could be bad and the charger will see the good voltage and shut charge off because it thinks it done. But it will work to get you by for now without the need to change the charge wires each time.
Isn't this what he said? He is charging one battery at a time.
@@ToddSinclair yes he did
Taylor has come a long way thanks to you Bobby. 👍🏼🤙🏼
Syd is such a fun person. I enjoy her a lot.
super glue works great. pull the wound as closed up as possible and glue it shut. it worked on the battlefield, it'll work at Megan Bay.
Didn't notice any physical attributes of Taylor contributing to the hypothermic environment of the boat! Shucks....
But to be sure, I WAS looking🤩❣👍👍👍

Glad to see you put the info about your stroke in the intro!
Nice drone footage! Lesson also learnt foil boarding is dangerous - Taylor and Sam must have sent the sharks crazy 🦈
You need Nu Skin (liquid bandage) in your first aid kit. It's a liquid bandage with antiseptic and your healing time is greatly improved over just a plain cloth bandage. I've used it on myself in times I probably should have had stiches.
Sam came back for more seeding! Yeah seed!
Mike, Taylor make sure you rinse out the wound with clean freshwater. Use a triple strength antibiotic. Super glue was designed by the military for field use in wounds, but now there is a medical grade super glue. See if you can add that to your first aid kits on your boats.

Bobby, only one thing missing here in Magens Bay.....That would be Megan Bink.......I know the a and the e are flipped :) but it's still her bay.
The modern equivalent of riding the bucking bronco
Great effort , think stitches narrowly avoided , no joke 🤗
Great crew
I'm thinking surf booties are a good idea with the kite board!
Or i am thinking too even just some old fashioned deck grip as that board looks slippery as, just checking Bobby do you wax it before using it? Looks like it’s really hard to get grip as well as being razer sharp
Sydney seems like a lot of fun.
When Bobby explains technical this is me 😮! 😂
Thank you for adding the details at the opening bookcover! It makes so _much_ a better introduction!
Getting underneath Taylor and talking about Thruster Chargers..............will YT allow this ??? 🤣🤣🤣
That reminds me of when I was a young boy, running down the street getting my kite launched, only to have it die when I stopped running. No wind. 😂
You can tell it's not a sailboat because there is unused space in the storage lockers!
On the thruster battery situation… if the 12v charger is a two bank charger, just connect one bank to each battery. It’s not ideal but will work.

LOL, "Pump it harder Bobby" That was hilarious.
Bobby,
How about a cigar episode? What cigars do you like? Is keeping the humidor at the right humidity more difficult on the boat? Are cigars cheaper where you are? Etc.
Love the content.
great idea, ld like to see his setup and what brands he smokes
Hey Bobby!
Hope y’all are well! Still making it here in Frisco. Enjoy the season!
You can parallel your charger on both batteries like 2 individual, will not influences 24vdc! no need to replace
I've been to Magens Bay a few times. It has been ranked multiple times as one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet. The hills that protect it form a great view. I was there after a hurricane some 20-ish years ago and even though the vegetation took a hit it was still very nice.
Store bought Super Glue is not good for closing wounds. Contains things not good for wounds. Only use the glue specifically made for wound closure.
Sydney needs to stick with the Aussie accent forever, very funny.
A little Tony's Chachere creole seasoning and some Sriracha hot sauce will make that alfredo sauce be awesome. Season and mix in well. Yummy... Also I think she had it right practicing on Oscar to figure out how to hold the Kite in the wind and gain balance. Either way it looks very difficult.

Get rid of the foil board will fix this!!
If you're in love with the wing foil just wear an old pair of sneakers.
The kite flies. Stop holding it up and let it lift you up instead.
Bend you knees low in middle of the board.
Tip one sail fin up to catch the wind.
As it flies up, you stand up.
Then, sail the boat.
Windsurf where the wind is more prevalent.
That foil doesn’t look like much fun honestly 😂
Bobby, to accelerate the charging of the batteries, charge both in parallel instead of charging one at a time. You can us jumper cables or have some cables made specific for charging two batteries at the same time.
No triple antibiotic ointment on board? That stuff is a must in the tropics and really anywhere you are.
I love Sydney's Australian accent!
She's Australian??
Taylor is soo fiiiineeee... also glad to see Amanda doesn't wear those mom swimsuits anymore
The editing software looks pretty cool! Just downloaded the free version. Also, the fun in the sun videos are awesome! Living the best life!
Syd is a power house.. :-)
Beautiful Bay , favorite channel out of all ! That short board is creeps go long board ..
Super Glue works great for closing lacerations
That hydrofoil board should have foot straps. I don't see how your feet will have enough friction to stay on when there is enough force to get up on a plane...
no footstraps , like a surfboard or boogie board , you need to shift stance to keep balanced
You don’t need foot straps for wing foiling especially if you’re learning because you need to move your feet around to find the balance point and right now they’re passing the board around.
@@martinomovies how about to do a water start ?

I think there's a reason the bay is not full of foils.
Just hook up each battery to the charger and install a disconnect between the banks.
Magens bay is beautiful!!! Last time I was there in 1977.
Maybe use a bigger board for the kite so it’s more stable
My Bass Boat has a 24 Volt Trolling Motor and I have a 12 Volt 3 Bank Charger that charges all 3 of my Batteries I have been using it for years

Enjoyable day for sure. Coral cut can be serious. Besst to seek medical care. be careful always enjoy your diving swimming and cruising.
Hi Sailing Doodles Crew :-) Great to see you guys again! Man, watch out for that Kite... Dangerous LOL
I'm sure it's not the first time Bobby was told to pump it....pump it harder!
Love Magens Bay, especially when empty.😎
That beach looks amazing.
All-in-all first aid is important to any wound. However, it's really got to be watched in remote areas you never know what bacteria is in the water.
Good call on the super glue it works wonders👍
The Great Value brand is just as good as that one you’ll pay 5 dollars more a jar for. It’s just Wal-Marts brand which makes it much cheaper for us ordinary people!
Taylor was sitting right under the vents! Redirect the first few fins to eliminate freezing. 😁
Use some Marvel Mystery oil to clean out the gunk and get it into the filter. Good for old motors.Thats a dangerous kite for sure.
What about a dedicated 24volt solar cell & controller? Sees like the perfect application for something that is not used regularly. Probably extend battery life too? Just a simple thought. All the best guys.

Hook the 2 batteries in parallel and they will charge evenly on the 12v charger.
Page 40 in the June /July boating mag “Adding a multibank battery charger”
Could he possibly connect ×2 12v batteries in parallel and charge them both at the same time on the 12v charger?
You need to have a “fuel polish” done on your genset fuel tank. Then treat with a biocide. Install 2 X Racor 7550. Problem free there after. H
He keeps talking about it but never get it done therefore keeps having issues.
I have to admit I really miss the this trip we’re sailing with.. at the beginning of the videos
"while I get underneath you..." 🤣😂
Can't you get some extra wire and parallel the charger to both battery's? that way the charger will see a single 12volt load that is actually both battery's instead of the series 24v load.
I'm glad Bobby doesn't store his women like he stores his beer.
She’s adorable!
Just use a dual bank 12v charger.
They are around 150 bucks and will work fine for that application.
The MinnKota brand 20 amp, which is 10 amp per bank, are solid chargers and relitively inexpensive.
Im thinking scuba booties for safe foiling. Just a thought. BTW ive used filmora for the last year. Pretty simple to step away from for months. If your not editing all the time the relearning curve is short.
