  • After a month of boat repairs and upgrades we load up with food and fuel and work our way out of the hurricane belt. The fish are biting and the storms are brewing. Grenada is our destination for hurricane season as that is one of the places far enough out of the statistical hurricane belt that insurance will allow us to go and still cover the boat for a named storm.

    Gotta tell you guys I've been watching since Billy's1st trawler in Gilgo.. I'm and old retired drummer/bartender that spent some time in Blue Point, so Billy's family name was known to me. I can't begin to count the times being stressed beyond the max in NYC you guys have taken me out of the depths to some great adventures.. Thanks again and happy sails to you. P.S. hugs to Jetty!!!

    This is when being a CZcamsr really pays off because you have such great footage that you are generally filming or ready to film. That was a huge Blue Marlen. You guys did well to even get it to your boat. I was really happy when you released him. Such a beautiful creature. Honestly, I don't know how you would have gotten that size fish into your boat with just the two of you. He looked to weigh a lot. What a special memory that will be.

    Great job with the marlin! Thank you for holding him while he recovered before you released him. We once had a marlin on line when he jumped and got tail wrapped by the leader, and we reeled him in backwards. We held on to him for around 30 minutes or longer while he recovered. We watched the water off the stern and saw him leap in the air as to signal to us he was ready for another day! Yellow fin tuna are the best. We would grill tuna steaks and cook extra filets for tuna salad the next day. Fair winds and following seas.

    For a guy that never caught a billfish before, you did a great job of reviving that one. You looked like a pro. As for those strainers, see if you maybe have the inlet & outlet sides reversed. The outlet passage on a strainer housing is often smaller & clogs as you described if you mistakenly use it as an inlet.

  • @cliffblakely4008
    @cliffblakely4008 Před 24 dny +2

    Next time you paint the bottom, get a fresh jar of ground cayenne pepper. Have it shaken into the paint. Doesn't change the color and it works wonders. I learned that from a Capt I fished with in CR.

    At 22:49 that’s a Bahama Mockingbird singing. Those occasionally show up in Florida. They are a little larger than our Northern Mockingbirds with a white-tipped tail and without white wing bars. The underside is streaked mostly on the sides.

    The Laurie Sue rode out the hurricane in Egmont Lagoon in the mangroves. A new channel I watch is the Adventure Crew and they filmed all the boats holding on for dear life. The Video is in the live feeds. It looks like it was the safest place in Grenada. It might be a good site to look at since they had some real time interviews on US network news.

      The safest place in Grenada was Trinidad. Been here 9 years and finally had to flee. I have to say if I were in Egmont I would have stayed. 14+ boats grounded in Prickly Bay and several more unsalvageable still afloat.

    We sailed down from St Lucia last Friday arriving Saturday. We got Mediterranean mooring at Ft Louis Marina in Grenada. Stripped the boat down on Sunday and rode out the hurricane. Watoosh and us came through fine but Carriacou was devastated. We are now out in the bay putting the boat back together. I agree with you on bottom paint.

      @@spaRTan3246 granted that would probably be the best choice but long radius 90s would be the most economical and fastest and easiest remedy, if they still have clogging problems they can still upgrade

      @user-pi3yq7zl1x Před 24 dny +1

      Sometimes the fittings are called constant radius fittings. Check out a race car fabrication supply company. Not cheep but won’t clog like that and give full flow very close to a straight fitting. Love the show. Glad you’re back on the water.

    Can you pressure back wash those strainer pipes and elbows ... If you have to go through a 90deg turn its better to have a smooth bend than a sharp elbow.
    Better still is to have a closed keel cooling loop .
