  • Properly welcoming the new year. Short single-handed sail on a breezy Puget Sound near Seattle. That cool tune you're listening to is "Extreme Ways" by Moby. Couldn't have dreamed a better soundtrack. If you like this video, check out Desolation Sound 2015 • Sailing Pardon My Fren...

    I just started learning to sail, but when I saw 15-25kt wind and it switched video to full jib and main I was super stoked, rarely ever do you see someone as strong as their vessel, most people would have turned upwind when the vessel keeled half that. I'd like to sail with YOU sometime sir bravo!

    Thanks John for the comment! The 36 is a great boat that is relatively easy to single hand. That day was such a great day to sail, good steady wind and no-one on hte water, and the boat was just flying on a beam reach. I envy florida for warm year around sailing; we sail year around here, but it is wet/cold, sometimes freezing. The really cool thing is that sometimes you can get some skiing and sailing in one weekend -- that makes it worth it altogether (or that's how we convince ourselves :-)

    Johns right about the cinematography. Its a nicely done video. I live and sail in the Chesapeake bay but I am from So. Fla. I sail all year here and there and often thought if I was in the sound......I'd sail year round there too!

    Thanks! I shot this with my samsung focus windows phone then edited quickly on movie.
    The music is Extreme Ways by Moby.

    Cool Video. Perfect music too. I have a 2001 C36 MK11, so I can appreciate your single-handed skill, especially working a camera and in those conditions. Amusing to read 'start off the year' Here in Sarasota, Fl., we take for granted sailing year round. Impressive to see that SOG 8.5! I rarely see that in mine! Hope you've had a nice season.

    Nice video, looks like you had fun! I try to sail every Jan 1st, it's become a tradition. But my cold numb fingers can hardly hold a pen to write in my logbook :-) (Vancouver Island) Cheers.

    @0Howlin0 thanks! my catalina is a 1989. I was wearing a Helly Hansen coastal jacket and slam foulies. I was totally toasty.

    Nice video! What camera did you shoot this with? What video editing software? One more question: what was the nice music with it? Well done. Thanks for posting this on the C36IA website.

    Nice! Just went on our first sail of the year. Here is our sailing song, with a photo montage of sailboats in the San Juan Islands, a little north of you. Fair winds! czcams.com/video/NWdNZci2TDE/video.html
