"26 miles across the sea, Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me..." Last time I was there was in 1965 while I was still in the Navy. Ahoy!! :)
Fun to see this! I used to sail (motor mostly) from Dana Point to Catalina on my Catalina 30 back in the late 70s, early 80s. Great times!
Dana Point is downwind in prevailing wind conditions from Catalina Island. Long Beach is the best to reach fore and back to the island
I've done this trip dozens of times and it never gets old. Great blue 🐋 sighting!
We want all the sailing stuff. Woohoo
You will like this one. Right up your alley. 😄
I’ve heard “Catalina Island” a lot but never actually saw any footage of it… really nice thanks
Great to see you back sailing your own boat. Nothing like it!!
This is probably one of the best sailing videos I’ve ever watched….the format in particular…..
I love your videos. I have learned so much. Catalina will be my first destination when I get my boat. Thanks Josh!
Excellent description of the mooring balls. You've got a true talent for description and teaching. Great trip with beautiful pictures. Great map overview of SOCAL.
Wait, I know you. You’re that dude in the video. 😄 Thanks for going to Catalina with me. Next time we’ll find a buffalo. 🦬 Good times. 🤙
I'm glad you decided to share this one. I love seeing the practical side of things too and not just the "Instagram photos" version of Catalina.
Great island.... use to go once in a while.
Thanks
Ok I had no idea about the islands and yes I can relate to perfection being my worst enemy. 🙃 thanks for the consistent vlogs.
Very enjoyable. How majestic was that blue whale? What a privilege that was. Thanks Josh.
Sailed for a long time but never did ball mooring. Nice to see how it's done.
Nice background music. It really sold the adventure! Thanks for sharing. This seems like what sailing is all about.
Nıce boat and nıce vıews. Thank you.
I just started raciing Lido's at BAYC. Looking at my first 27ft sail boat out of dana pointe. Excited for what the future holds great videos my friend.
"Catalina whine mixer" (Will Ferrell)....Excellent work Josh! My only issue was that is should have been longer. Great shots and music - I really appreciate how you detailed the sailing event and how the mooring balls worked - pretty cool stuff. 😀
Seeing that whale, I would've grabbed my mask, snorkel & fins and jumped overboard not forgetting the GoPro!
Noticed, your boat has no boom vang?? Will sure help to trim the mainsail better and get that flying boom down!
Excellent video. I live in San Diego and go to Catalina by Ferry but also had a 27 foot Erickson but never sailed to Catalina. Was unsure how to do it. Very best video for sailers.
You might want to have the sail cover off before leaving the mooring in case your motor quits in harbor.
Thank you for the video 👍just a beautiful boat
The blue whale sighting was awesome! I normally head to Two Harbors. Can you tell me if there are mooring fees for Moonstone Beach?
Good day. Yes, mooring fees. That’s what I forgot to mention in the video. My experience is that pretty much any place with moorings is approx $50 per night. They have good deals in the off season though like buy 2 nights get 5 nights free, but only in off season.
Nice mackerel! Good vid, loved it, relaxing, educational... excellent. thanks!
Hi, Josh! I enjoyed watching your trip to Catalina! Not sure if you remember that I sold Peregrine Spirit and moved to Arizona several years ago. Your new boat looks like a fine sailing vessel. Couldn't help but notice that the pelican hook on the life-line gate was open in the last scene. :) All my best to you, Josh. Keep sailing!
Thank you, Tony! Great to hear from you. Let me know if you visit SoCal. Hope all is well in AZ. Cheers!
Thanks Josh, loved the vibe of this video!
Good, thanks for the video. How is the temperature of the water around the island. Regards
That blue whale must have somehow run away from ıts Norwegian and Japanese killers... Luckily. Beautıful.
Please do your best to reach John Depp or those who can bring this to his attention. After I watched this most excellent interview, I had the strongest feeling someone should bring all this to the attention of John Depp for him to produce and direct using all the real-life people who touched souls in this most lovely story of this novice sailor finding and resucing this women from the sea. Please make this happen. I am in Temple Texas and all of this has sooo touched my soul. What most wonderful of telling this one. Thank you for your excellent instincts, interviewing and soul "savvyness". I am your follower now excited to have this landlocked person taken off on adventures by you! mo green
that don't look like the beneteau 38 you had. you got a different boat?
Camp Fox
You're a nice guy.
How do the mooring balls work? How much too tie up ?
I forgot to mention that. Around $50 per night. In the smaller coves, you can usually just go tie up without alerting anyone and a little boat will come around from harbor dept. at some point to collect the money. In the two larger areas (Avalon and Two Harbors), you have to make radio contact with the harbor folks upon arrival and they will tell you a certain number of ball to go to.
Just returned from a week in Two Harbors yesterday. Great time. So much easier from Newport, Two Harbors is 100 nm from San Diego, makes for a long day. SDYC has an outpost at Moonstone, did you get to the bar?
Very cool! We went into the SDYC area where they have the BBQ grills and ping pong. It was a Sunday night so no one really there and no bar happening. Still a nice time and fun to see that area. No cell phone coverage at Whites / Moonstone so definitely off grid.
You tell us what kind of drone you have, your tablet, camera, and other gear but you tell us the most important thing. What kind of boat you are sailing.
Cheoy Lee Robb 35.
What happened to the boat with the tiller?
You mean the boat from my “How to Sail” video? That was a fun boat. A Capri 25. I had that when I lived in Annapolis in 2017. I have since then owned 3 different boats. The current boat I own is in this video about going to Catalina. It’s an old 1965 Cheoy Lee 35.
Are you happy with your new boat? What kind and size
Hey. Yes, she’s a great boat. A 1965 Cheoy Lee 35.
Hello mr josh, your lady doesn't like to sail?....bye and happy sailing
Love Catalina, but the mooring rates for my 43 foot sailboat are piracy!! Biggest compliant is that the mooring fields have completely filled in all the best places, forcing those who anchor way out into deep water. The powers that be should remove at least half of those damn things and stop being so greedy
I agree completely. I don’t want to anchor in the deep. I prefer a mooring but they are WAY too expensive. They should be half the price per night or around $25 per night. Even in the Bahamas where everything is highway robbery, the moorings are only like $20 per night.
