  • Lots of fun had with the SKIF Rally crew down in Orange Beach! From historic forts, good food, some windy nights, good snorkeling and just plain good times, it was a great Rally. Thanks for being part of it folks!

    SV Seeker was built in Tulsa, OK by Doug and all the people that helped him. I got to go on board during a party put on by the foundation that is funding her. They finally got her in the water at the Port of Catoosa and she motored down to the gulf. I knew that was her before you said something!! Really cool seeing her on another channel.

    Thanks so much for the viable information Trip. I had no clue that just because you drink a bunch of water, you can actually dehydrate yourself. Now I know why my urine has been so concentrated this last decade..... It has to be all that water I've been consuming. Thanks so much brother! ❤️ I enjoyed your video as always. 😎

    @33:50 I don't LIKE to move... I had to move due to the wind changing directions and the rear anchor breaking free. That side of the water was more protected. this was at 2am :D
    First night I moved due to the derelict sailboat breaking free and was within 20' of my boat. didn't want to risk it :)
    Plus, hammock camping in high wind isn't super fun. getting out of the wind was priority #1

    • @TripSmith
      @TripSmith  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Hey frodo! I'm sorry you feel that way but I am happy to know that did enjoy the "non-powerboat" adventures. Times change, people change, adventures evolve and the channel changes. Sure, the powerboat adventures aren't for everyone, but there are way more people watching the powerboat adventures (sometimes 10X or more than a paddling video). I enjoy all of the adventures, as long as it's an adventure.
      Some perks I find to adding power is:
      - I can see more in a given amount of time
      - I can reach places that I wouldn't have if I were paddling
      - When I reach those places, I have more energy to enjoy the surroundings
      - My adventure options are more plentiful
      - More people watching to me is more people enjoying and being inspired. Also, the videos are more fruitful which enables me to create more and better adventures.
      But I totally get your into the older style of content. Fortunately, unlike nearly ten years ago when I started, now there are lots of people making good paddling adventure videos ;)
