  • This is the first single handed trip I was on. Also the first night I spent on the hook. Everything went quite well. And I even got to go kayak fishing the next morning. I launched right from the boat! Pretty cool, me thinks ;^)

    I've never seen the ocean I would give anything to take a trip like you and Mike took but I doubt a wheelchair would work. But I can dream.

    Running that generator, you need to get yourself a carbon monoxide detector for your boat. Play it safe.
    Enjoyed the trip, as always. You've a real creative touch with your angles and editing.

      It really depends on where you keep your genny. There's nothing to worry about when you have it where he keeps his. If your generator is in your engine room then a monoxide detector is a good idea.

      @zoffinger  Před 7 lety +17

      I had one already in the cabin to test for the exhaust coming from the two main CO pooters. A tester is a must. Even when on the swim platform, because you're not moving, the fumes can creep around the inside of the boat.

    I have a very tough life with my career, everything is hectic all the time and all people (including myself) only focus on making the big buck. To be honest, its great to unwind and watch these videos. Maybe someday Ill have the courage to live like this.... though I do enjoy getting stoned after a long week and watching these.
