I am very glad to hear others like me discovered your books through this avenue...
so whens the next book?
I must say as the video continues I admire any daughter willing to be taught by dad!!! Good job, daughter!
Why? I'd rather say how obviously it's needed that daughters learn from their dads. I'll actually keep my mouth shut because it amazes me how you can admire someone just learning something basic from her father. As if it was something unusual or weird.
I want to say good job to all men for doing their best and being patient teaching people. God knows how anything is a problem these days
I have 4 daughters and although 2 like to sail they have no interest in “learning” to sail unfortunately!
Kind of a weird comment
It’s hard to learn a skill from a parent and not take the corrections personally. I think he did an admirable job at teaching and she at listening. Men and women, at times but not always, learn differently. I’m here because Christian Williams inspires me and makes me a more knowledgeable thoughtful sailor. And, I’m female. Just an expression of job well done I wanted to pass on to his daughter because I’ve been there.
A proud moment when my daughter said ( when you die I want your album collection and your boat )
When the Student is ready, a Teacher will appear. Thank you for making this video. Thank you for your years of hard-won experience, and bless you for sharing it with us. I am 1 solid year into living on my 32 Ericsson. I have so much to learn but the hardest skill to master is the confidence, for sure. You boosted my confidence with a video and frankly, I'm quite moved. Thank you again.
Well presented experienced advice - I'm self taught and a solo sailor, so far I have been the only victim of all the very many mistakes I've ever made. And I too never again did see the towed Bombard dingy, nor did I retrieve the boat hook, or my expensive life jacket. So perhaps the only advice I'm prepared to offer is, don't sail with me.
I started sailing a cruiser 10 years ago, and watching all your videos over the years has helped me a great deal. Still learning all the time.
I have learned so much from you over the years. Thank you for sharing you knowledge. You have definitely been one of my go-to sailing mentors.
Absolutely!
Congrat for this amazing video!! I was in the army before my dad passed away,7 years , one thing I learned and make me one of the best parachutes,pilot,driver,etc etc is that Im pretty good observer,some people just look but I observer and assimilate everything,then if you mix that with preparation,strong mindset, there's nothing you can't do! I'm arriving from a beautiful island now to Ibiza, is time to start to learn sailing and continue with this beautiful life !! Thanks again for your content,is full of information and experience!! Let's go !!!
No Christian, THANK YOU man ! ....(for all you have done, and I hope you WILL do), you should be given a medal for presenting Cruising Safety in a Humorous, Wise, and Totally Welcome Format. I hope you are able to cruise many more miles Sir, and I know you will enjoy all of them that there is......P.S., I'm 76 now, so I know where your at ......OnWard........
Very good info. One of my favorite sayings; " if you don't know, don't go.
I found you here on CZcams, admired you, and thus purchased and read “Alone Together”. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve recommended it to other sailors.
Amazing to me how many sailors don’t ever think about situational awareness. . .Totally trusting of their gear. . .wrongly. Really good video.
Well said 👏
Thank you for another outstanding, informative, and inspirational video. Last week I turned seventy years old and continue to sail, mostly singlehanded, my 42 sailboat. I began sailing in my teens and have safely sailed many miles alone throughout my life. You nailed the realization that a competent sailor anticipates possible issues before they happen....I pride myself on maintaining a high level of confidence. Another important fact of being confidentially prepared is performing maintenance from the smallest item to the larger ones, any of which can ruin a day on the water. Now don't let this comment go to your head...but, you're a great teacher, using a gift for skillfully explaining the art of sailing. I wish we were dockmates because it would be fun to be your sailing friend.
I'm probably never going to get to go ocean sailing, but I wouldn't miss an opportunity to learn virtually from Mr. Williams. Thank you so much for yet again providing that opportunity!
Always happy to listen to C.W. I love just narration and video.
I was wishing this morning you were able to put up another video. Then, tada!
It's always a good day when Christian comes out with a new video. Thankyou for your effort.
Dear Mr Christianson.I hope I spelt your name right, I have purchased a 38 trimaran a year ago lived on her for a month but returned to TORONTO to finish up responsibilities at Blackbird Boats.61 and ready to solo about.There are no words to Thank-you for your teachings.Im heading back to ...Kyote...100 miles north of Vancouver. I will look you up for a handshake soon.Thx so much
So glad for this video and you’re back in order to point out the important maintenance of our vessel and possibilities of failure while enjoying a coastal cruise. Thank you Christian. Forever grateful.
Once again, a very well produced video that is much appreciated. Calm, easy to follow narrations with plenty of thoughtful humor tucked in. Well done.
Your daughter takes coaching very well …. and I laughed when she handed it back to you. 😂 Good team!
Thank you from WI 👍🏻
I've had years of sailing, now with a 15 year break, I'm 61, and will buy a 40-42 foot Sabre/Tartan for my solo sailing life. I loved watching you walk your daughter through working the sheets when coming about. Just an amazing teacher. Too often I would narrate directions to my wife as she did something. How brain dead was I? Your post tack review is simply the way to go. Now I am going to consume all of your videos and books!
I don't think 4 minutes went by where I didn't learn something or get reminded of something I wasn't thinking enough about. I was embarrassed watching your controlled jibe. On my 31-2 Pearson, I would head up a tad, bring the main sheet in a little, maybe even try to grab the boom (yes, dangerously dumb), and allow the jib to happen in a "controlled" manner. I watched your example 5 times. They say if you can't pull the door open, try pushing. I cannot wait to try your example.
I want to be your crew and go sailing with you. I was taught to sail by my father, a navigator on a sub in WWII. He was a luddite, and it took us years to convince him to buy a VHF. From 1967 to 1992 he sailed his three sons/wife/dog to every island from Puerto Rico to South America. My brother once asked him "did you ever get scared?" He said "YES! Often shitless." Yet, all we saw was a confident man, a captain with a plan, and ready to execute a calm plan of mitigation. Always paying close attention to everything on the boat and all around us.
Love your teaching style and absolutely agree that a sailor sails in his mind before falling asleep and before entering a business meeting. Keep up the great work. We all have something to learn about the greatest sport.
Great videos Mr Williams! Thank you for your latest edition.
Christian - you are quite inspirational.... I sail a little Golden Hind 26 - almost always solo - because I am confident in the size of her, and know I can handle almost any condition (and know when not to bother!). I havent been sailing as long as you - only 10 years - but your advice and charming mix of music and humor are easy to follow... Plus, you convinced me yo buy an old industrial sewing machine, and make sail covers :)
I don't have a sailboat and probably never will, but i read your books and never missed a video. Thank you for taking me along.
Hi Christian! Glad to see you are back! Greetings from Europe.
Someday… it’s all I dream about. Envy runs strong as I watch this. Glad you’re doing ok. Blessings.
You are one of my top channels. I have enjoyed every video. This one offered such valuable advice, and is also very timely for me. Let's raise a glass to another ten years, Christian.
Thank you for taking us along. . . we appreciate your tutelage, guidance and wisdom from the sea.
I love these videos. Just a pure love of sailing and the ocean from an accomplished author. Thank you for sharing Christian W!
Good tips. Learned a lot. Good tacking lesson. You focused on the one error without interfering or interrupting. I think we're all used constant over monitoring and maybe a little shouting. She will get it the next time. That's learning.
You assessment and experience of MOB is common and sobering. The last time I did some MOB drills with an instructor he brought along a friend to be spotter. The guy had no sense of distance. Everything was always 50', even when it was under the bow heading to the opposite side. How do most of us pass the MOB lesson? We're either in a 22' boat on a calm day and it's easy, or something kind of eventually works and the instructor shrugs. (My MOB plan is: No matter what stay with the boat, and if I go in the water, the boat just gets close and stops and I swim to it. I have little confidence in most of the people I've sailed with, or with my MOB rescue ability. At night on watch I wear my PFD with safety lines.)
Little things like how the life lines are secured can become critical. If it's a bolt and a cotter pin, then the cotter pin can chafe a spinnaker line. If it's those little loop springs, then they can snag and get yanked out. (If it's a bolt and nut, then you can't open it. But when was the last time you opened up a life line at the bow?)
The clevis pin? Yikes. Okay, you just lost one -- what do you replace it with? How long will it take you to find it?
You have multiple factors here. First of course is constant deck checks, second is having replacement solutions available but third is how fast and efficiently can you fix this stuff? I noticed during a recent, very cold and damp, ocean crossing that working forward if I got splashed it wasn't because I was up there, it was because I was up there too long -- caused by inefficiencies. We ended that crossing with fishing tackle clips holding in the pins on the life line and the pin on the jib car. (That one got damaged but held on.)
Our jib roller furler line chaffed through twice. The cage was installed 90° out, so the line had to pass through a frame rather than no frame. Others with the same model boat suggested adding a low friction lead off the seagull striker (catamaran) to better direct the line to the center of the drum. I never once saw ours rubbing against the side of the cage, but it clearly was doing just that.
Right before the long crossing, our owner insisted he didn't need to buy anymore rope. We had to repair the furler line, one of the reefs, the four kite control lines all had core hernias in the spliced loops.... I brought to the voyage a lot of ''stuff'. Things I bought locally was further derided as "more crap.' (My favorite line was 'Why did you buy duct tape? We already have a roll.") We used just about all of it which told me I hadn't brought or bought enough.
Things break on a sailboat. You need to have the means to fix, repair, replace or you will do without. You need good tools.
What you also need is an obsessive practice of double protecting every thing. I watched bits and bobs go right over the side. Other things that got loose miraculously stayed onboard. Dumb luck is not a method. I tie lanyards on everything (I still get a kick out of multi wrap fisherman's bends).
re: Reefing. We never got around to reefing in my 100 level sailing classes. One day solo sailing a charter to get some practice, the wind was up, all the sailboats in Santa Monica Bay were healing - very pretty. I decided to try reefing. Wasn't too difficult. My boat speed didn't change much but now I was comfortably level. No one else that day reefed. I was sure I had the least experience of anyone out that day. Of course they didn't need to reef, but why not?
On our recent crossing I was always in favor of reefing. I always wanted to reef before dark. We didn't reef as often as I would have, usually we didn't need to, sometimes we ended up reefing when we clearly should've already been reefed. All in all not too bad. No complaints. Initially reefing was complex, slow, fussy. After a while we could just do it. However the fumbles, redos and errors we made we made over and over. They weren't significant, but this is information.
What I learned on that voyage was: Things deliberately practiced in isolation as practice and to create efficient steps got better and better. Things we did because we needed to, got better, but not much better. A good analog of this for me is knots. I can sit around anywhere with piece of rope or string and practice my knots. I can do a bowline one handed without looking. (BTW Pausing and redoing a bowline is not a method.) But I didn't have this level of competence with the cleat hitch or the fender hitch. But what about after doing both onboard hundreds of times? Even on our last day I probably tied on four fenders three different ways. Still wonky. I figured out that this is because I didn't have a cleat or a railing to practice on. (So I got a big plastic cleat, screwed it to a piece of 2x4 and have been deliberately and systematically practicing. I want every part of my skills to become automatic and bulletproof. They need to be this reliable in a crisis. Automaticity.
I got dinged a lot by everyone on board for complaining. A fixed mindset is that a good experienced sailor is someone who can do just about everything. They were all 'good sailors,' (Many still fumble tying a bowline) What should really define a good sailor is being able to not only work efficiently but to always be making everything on board more and more efficient. This makes it more reliable, safer, better all round. (If you're an experienced sailor and you still flub the bowline, you have a fixed mindset.)

Her timing & intuition is wonderful
Thank you Christian, for taking us with you on all your journeys. Inspiring video as always. I am confident enough now, to learn and challenge myself by going out on these windy days with my "other boat", the "30 knots boat", and must say, it is fun, if you are prepared and nothing scary about it. That was unthinkable two years ago. Learned so much on your channel, so thanks again and fair winds! Frank
A sailor after my own old heart ! Sailor for many years . Built my own ferro 69ft and sailed it around the world in '82 after completing the Chapmans school , the Louisiana Marine Institute and sailing as a merchant hand for about 3 years first . When on to get a tug captains license to run ocean for Crowley Maritime tugs to the artic base at Pruedo bay. ALWAYS used jacklines at sea . Tacking/jibing techniques are always an example of feeling your craft (tuning in to it so to speak) and doing it gracefully enough to minimalize stresses to the rig . One thing I discovered was that I preferred the Australian innovation of using 2 hard point connects for the main sail instead of a traveler rail .This is set to midpoint on a jibe and relieved and taken in as you do the maneuver . Easy to feel correctly .Happy sailing !
Over the years, I've enjoyed your adventures and wisdom. It hasn't cost me anything but the moments in my life that would have remained unremarkable. The world needs more of you. People with their head screwed on straight. I know I am not one of them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Fantastic video! I am an experienced sailor and boat owner/skipper. But this video reminded me to rethink and revisit many things about sailing and my boat that I haven't thought about for a long time. Especially man overboard plans and tactics. Thank you!
Although older than I should be to be transitioning from a land lover to a sea lover, I have recently come upon Mr Williams videos and much say am happy to have found them.
I do enjoy his insight and wisdom and find them necessary in developing a sailors mindset.
I would really like to thank you for your wisdom. I’m a Texan and not familiar with sailing and would like to enjoy the idea of being propelled by Mother Nature. Thanks for all of your knowledge that you have bestowed upon us and I would really like to be a student of yours. I’ve seen most of your videos and I like the way you teach. Keep making these please because I feel your helping people like me understand the dynamics of sailing. I do appreciate your content. It’s not going unnoticed. Thank you sir
Thank you Christian to keep us dreaming.
The main lessons I've gotten from your channel is focusing on prevention of catastrophes through routine checks, practices and having sound procedures/Checklists. This is especially evident from this series as well as the footage of you doing your daily checks in the Hawaii Crossing series as well. Thanks for putting the time and effort into these videos.
Once again Christian a thought provoking video. At times when trying to think through a strategy, problem or situation I find myself thinking "What would Christian do?" . Clearly I respect your view and opinions. Thank you. DJ
I had to check. I've been watching for 6 years starting with the 2 part Bermuda series. I've loved every minute of it. Thanks for allowing us to tag along.
Christian, I just want to thank you for producing these videos. I purchased a 1967 Morgan 24 back in December. First-time sailor (@60) and have it on the hard doing a bottom job. This particular video has to be the best on tacking and jibing. At least for me, it made perfect sense. Thanks to your daughter also, she did a great job taking in the instructions. One day, I hope to be a 1/10 as good as you. Thanks again, so much!
I have just recently found this channel and I am in awe, this man is more man than many men I know!
I admire you Christian and can only dream of sailing with someone like you
Godspeed and May the wind always be on your side
I like the advice that developing a routine of observation becomes a smooth ritual. Taking a stroll forward every hour or so and checking all the cleats & lines as you go becomes part of the joy of sailing. Sweet. 🎉
Love the camera angle looking aft from the mast as the sea rushes past and the deck gently tosses from side to side. Gives such a feeling of calm. Perfect.
To spend this time in the company of such a competent seaman is incredible. Thank you very much for these invaluable insights into your expertise.
As an old sailing 'geezer", your imparted wisdom and common sense is 'right on'! However, after sailing for 53 years I still control the main to center when I gybe 😊👍
Thank you Christian! You have inspired me over and over. And congratulations!
As an owner of an Ericson 35-MK 3 I was drawn to your channel a few years ago. Thank you for the entertainment content as well as the useful expertise. It’s always a pleasure to find a new video.
Thank you for having us along. Much respect. I look forward to your next video. My family owned many Ericson boats and I love that you sail one. Thanks again.
We did a man overboard run in the San Francisco bay, I simply pointed to a floating bag and said, "OK guys, let's see your skills, bag is man overboard. Important person in water keeps one arm raised for sight and a sighter on board keep pointing to the person in the water if there is more than one person. We did this under sail and it was amazing to watch the 50' vessel come along side in a wink and the item was retrieved quickly in one try. Now to be fair, we had a boat full of sea scouts who were now 60 year old adults who sailed the bay since children. Over 100 years of experience on board so if that gives you an idea of how much practice this takes, you must practice often!!!!!! Many of these guys were rescue coast guards so please listen and get a clue!!!! Christian, you are the bomb!! One of the few who get it. Most of these young people build a boat and go out without realizing what is involved here.
Could listen to you every day and twice on Sunday! Your episodes are insightful and delightfully entertaining! Not to mention inspirational to a 63 year old who wants to buy his first sailboat!
I took my 23ft Ranger Sailboat out for the first time Yesterday! Left my bouys over the side oblivious to certain things as I was more concerned with low tide and keeping my passsenger safe from incoming speed boats. I didn't raise sail. there was no wind to speak of near sanfransisco in the early afternoon. I used the 6hp tohatsu 4 cycle for the trip. So peaceful and wonderful to finally be out on a Sailing Yacht. It feels amazing to be in the ocean and connected to the experience. I was veryt inspired to see your videos online. I love your Teaching methods. I find you to be Smart and realistic,Honest and Reflective, Transparent and Caring. I Would love to Take a Lesson from you. Are you ever near San Francisco??? Do you have a few moments to spare to possibly save a life. I could offer a Vintage Sea Ray Ski boat fishing experience in exchange for Sailing knowledge??? My name is Brandon and I'm pleased to find you Christian... Your my kind of Teacher....
i bought your books! And then I bought the audio versions so i could listen to them again on my daily commute.
What a treat Christian to have a new video from you, after all the other videos, your two sailing books, and Rarotonga novel, all watched/read with absolute joy these last few months, when I discovered your channel by chance ... Cheers from Belgium
Glad to see another video out. The new sails look great by the way!
I am one that read your books because of your youtube channel, I acquired a Catalina 22 and started researching sailing. I then got an 11 foot sailboat and it was a whole different world. I hope to build confidence someday.... I'm sure under your instruction I one day will.
Oh, the inspiration is overflowing. Thank you.
i just prescribed even though ill probably never sail. but i learned more about sailing in this one video than i have in two hundred sailing videos I've watched prior. thank you good sir.
I stumbled upon this video rather by chance and it caught my full attention with the ski instructor story in the beginning. I was a ski instructor myself in my younger years. And that's right what you said. An experienced skier comes down almost every slope in normal conditions. Things will change when those circumstances get tougher. And then you have to think and anticipate. Just like on a boat. In all those years I have not often watched a video that I wholeheartedly agreed with at the end. And that is now the case. I'm going to refer people to this video. And ask them to pay attention and remember the wise lessons. Thank you and very, very much respect.
Hello and regards from sunny Singapore. We're enjoying watching your videos and are gaining value from your experience. Kudos to you, sir
👍🏽😀
Another great video, particularly the last 3 minutes or so. As you are much older than i am, OK just 6 months older, I particularly enjoyed seeing what I assume are photos of you grandchildren behind you. You would find the same on my boat. I am still single-handing and still grateful that I can open my eyes each morning, can still go to work and can still plan my next single-handed adventure. Please keep making these videos and writing your books.
Another good one Christian.
I leave my fenders hanging off for day sails since I am 90% time singlehanded and it’s one less thing to have to remember and go forward to deploy. If I plan a 12+ hour leg they come in.
Being a pilot for a career I always “preflight” my boat before setting off from stem to stern. It only takes 10 minutes and saves a lot of headache!
Do you also fly with pitot cover still on?
Thank you! I so admire your wit, skill, and teaching! A very content and smart fellow, you!
I really enjoy his measured, clear speaking style. The videos I've seen from him have been very informative. The dry wit is just an added bonus!
I am so glad that I found this channel! Thank you
One of the best on the topic.
Ahoy! Love the personal touch at the end Christian. And I can confirm that your CZcams channel does indeed sell your books. I have bought two of them and one will live on my boat (a 1975 Contest 33) as a constant dip-in curio, once she is back in the water after the refit which is taking far too long. Cheers from the UK!
Boy Mr. Williams if a person ever wanted to learn how to sail and handle a boat, you’d be the right guy to learn from… very impressive Sir 🙏
As someone newly interested in sailing; there are so many books out there it’s hard to know where to start, so it really helps to be able to see the author doing what he or she is writing about, and seeing not only their competency, but also their love of the topic.
It adds a lot of extra (font) weight to those words.
I can see why this channel has had such a positive effect in getting eyes on paper. Or earbuds in ears in the case of audiobooks.
It worked on me!
After discovering this channel a few days ago I’ve nearly watched everything, and I’ve already got the latest audiobook downloaded, and will be going through the rest of them too afterwards.
The next step is trying to get on a boat to see it all in action and maybe even make myself useful.
I would highly recommend talking the ASA lessons. I’ve completed through ASA 104, learned so much, met a lot of nice people.
Thank you Christian for another great video.
And thank you for an ever educating and entertaining channel.
I give your channel coordinate to (almost) everyone I meet! L
OMG. . .I’m subscribing. . .your joke supporting my previous point about situational awareness. As a sailor on Lake Champlain we used to point out all the cruising boats from Canada. . .most of which had their fenders out. These were the same people that would anchor 50 ft off my beach, walk around their boats naked, and bath in the lake, soap and all, as my young daughters pointed and laughed.
Love your videos, hope you continue to post with information and sailing entertainment.
I am not a sailor but love your descriptive talent Christian, thank you for sharing this insight into what it takes to sail with the knowledge and conviction of acquired learning.
BTW I loved the ending where you touched upon the subject about like share and subscribe and all of that CZcams Malarkey. You don't need to plead with your viewers when you are naturally gifted at communicating and sharing your experiences ... 👍
Thank you for sharing your experience it’s good to get a refresher from someone else
It is always a treat to watch your video’s and stories sharing your experiences. I have become a better and more confident sailor because of you. Thank you for all you do in making sailing such a rewarding experience!
Great Channel and loved your book "Introduction to Sailing". I'm inspired to sell my motor boat and just get a sunfish.
What a true gentleman! Full of knowledge, experience and sense of humor! I wish I could have you as my captain to learn from you, thanks for all! by the way, I love your monologs!
Christian, thanks for your videos. I really enjoy them.
Thank you ! You have created 2 sailors up here in the SF bay. My son and I are in the middle of lessons and looking forward to time on the water.
Thank you Christian. Excellent videos! I appreciate each one of them.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge
These videos, so well presented and informative, have contributed to my decision to purchase my own little 53 foot sailing vessel. I may not yet be a confident sailor, but it has thus far turned me into a confident plumber. :)
Congratulations on your CZcams 10 year anniversary! Your channel and your books are an inspiration. I'm taking my ASA101 course in a month and I look forward to continuing to learn from you. Thank you!
His first solo to Hawaii inspired me to learn 8 years ago!
Your videos are simply great.
Thanks Christian! I found you ten years ago, because we both had Eastport Prams.
Excelente y muy útil video, Mr. Williams.
Muchas gracias!
Another wonderful video for every sailor. Thanks for all your efforts!!
Always great to see a video from CW! I always learn something(s) and often nod to myself "of course, that's how to think about it!"
Enjoying every minute of this video. I am sailing mostly single handed and I have had to learn that attention to detail is a life saver. Had one of the stays breaking under power and barely made it back to the shore with ripped sail and total mayhem. Everything can go wrong so fast - when you are at sea. Thanks for your time to create this master piece
Bravo, concise, well thought out, very entertaining…as expected after these many years
As always an insightful and well presented video! Thanks again for all you do Christian.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos and gain another nugget of knowledge to add to what I already know and review what I have learned but probably forgot. Thanks ⛵️
Thank you Christian for sharing your wisdom with us, your channel is inspiring and teaching us all to be better.
Excellent episode. Your knowledge of sailing and the proficiencies needed to be a “confident” sailor are spot on. I enjoyed the flashback to you and your daughter tacking in the channel. If I remember correctly, someone made idiotic comment on that episode and your reply was something like, “If you were here, I’d punch you in the nose.” I would have been right with you. As a novice sailor, this episode was very instructional. Bow to stern review of every little thing. Jack lines and tethers. Deck checks. Casual eye on all of those little thing. By the way, I am glad you continue to produce these videos.
Glad to continue to be part of your voyages ! Congratulations on 10 years !...and agree with your closing comment in that I too, sail many days [in my mind] on my 29' sloop, Therapy. Your channel inspired me to recently undertake a ~750 nm sail from the southern Chesapeake Bay to Buffalo, NY. Continue to have Fair Winds and Following Seas Christian.
What a fabulous, informative video. You continue to help me develop the knowledge I need to continue my sailing journey.
You are a good teacher, and full of sailing knowledge . It's a real pleasure watching your videos. Thank you.
Thanks for a new video.
Mr. Williams, I look forward to seeing you too. Your videos have been an inspiration to me as I commence my epic as a sailor. Best wishes to you and your family. Thank you.
