  • Thanks for watching. This was going to be my best video yet, but I lost almost all of the good footage into the void. I have no idea how or why that happened, as it was backed up. Until next time.

    Hi Garrett! We used to own your boat. The engine was not installed in 2018. 2013 sounds about right. It's so nice to see her being enjoyed and it looks like a good fit for you! If you have any questions about her past I'd be happy to help. Fuel tank was replaced with the engine. Stainless steel glasses over. We have another Lyle Hess design now. A BCC 28.

    Just surfing through the web and found your site. I have done much of what you are doing and watching your videos lets me relive my adventures. Thank you for that. I am 64 now, not too old, and probably much more agile than others of my generation, but don't have the way or means to cruz. My days today are in the mountains/Forrest where I teach snow skiing, go snowmobiling, dirt-biking and mountaineering. But I can't help but dream of days gone by under the hot sun, warm water, green jungles, fresh waterfalls and white sands. Be safe-Cheers!!!!!

    Hey Garrett. When first installing your motor, not sure if you attached a 'saftey chain.' If not, make sure you do. Anything can work, even a small length of rope attaching the motor to the transom. If the motor ever comes unattached, it's gone. You'll never regret putting one on. Great video!

Obviously he is the product of some great parenting, and (not saying this with any animosity at all) financial backing. Don't feel down on yourself for not having the opportunity to do this yourself. Best you can do is try everyday to be free in your life, whatever that may manifest itself in.
