I finally retired and I wanted to sail around the world. My wife said if I bought a sailboat she was going to leave. I sure miss her.

I can speak on the "wife wont like it"...My wife thought I was an idiot for buying a sailboat UNTIL I brought it home and after our first trip on the icw....she is obsessed now LOL

Its always good to see you guys!

Good to see Lady K together again on video, This will have to do until winter breaks and you're back on the adventure trail

We're so glad you're making videos again. You're a funny couple. Please make more.

Glad to be getting lady k vids again we missed them

Great video. Except #3. She liked it so much that she jumped ship and left you to figure out how to get back up the East coast...

Great video! I especially like #9 on other people dissing your plan/dream and the suggested response. Hearing you take the positive position and following your adventures of the past, makes "ME" feel better chasing my dream. Thanks for being one if the most technically informative channels out there! Glad to see you two making videos!

i just stumbled onto your site. finally the truth about the myths. love the commentary while watching the vidoe in back ground....

Cant wait for you all to get back sailing.

Great video.. missed you guys.. Can't wait until your out there again!

I liked the spontaneity of this video!

Greetings from Grand Island, NY Niagara River. Would love to go sooner, but will have to wait a few more years. Thanks for the videos ...very informative! Looking forward to your next cruise.

Haven't seen you guys in ages. Some how you got off the viewing rotation...but here you popped up. Candice, you look better than ever. What who....I mean "what" have you guys been eating? I missed a ton of your episodes so will go back and catch up. God it's good to see you two back together. Little John Sends his love....

Good job, folks. I'm guessing by now, you two are experiencing "cabin fever" as I am here in Maine. Can't wait for warmer weather to get back out on the water. Someone commented (to me) the other day about how wonderful winter is here in Maine and I responded: "It's better in the Bahamas!" We just have to hang on a little longer before we can all once again be eating "cheeseburgers in Paradise." 👍

Great idea for a video , loved it

YES Thank you guys

Your best episode in awhile. Great work. Keep on sailing and filming!

good to see videos again!!! pretty interesting and most of the people I know are using Navionics :-) I have a friend who was in the Navy and demonstrated using the old paper charts and how that worked.. Navy in the 70's :-) It's all pretty interesting.. wonder if I'll ever get to go lol.

Love seeing this!!!

F*$K Em...Just do it... Love it guys, glad to see your are back releasing videos!

Good info 👍looking forward to new sailing vids

Best video so far!

Thanks for keeping it real.

Well I’m loosing weight , after buying a boat. I can’t afford to eat . Lol

Four words from me on this: Lin and Larry Pardey Great video folks.

Actually it's David Letterman who has the Top Ten List. Also he starts at 10 and counts down. P.S. Looking forward to watching your next adventure.

Just looking around for my first boat and out I go ;)

Anchored in that same spot in Bimini

Awesome episode guys 👍 Cheers from downunder

very nice video !!

Looking for my first boat right now. Great video 👍🏼

Great video, and nice to see both of you again! While I have Navionics loaded on an Android pad as a backup, my primary nav system is OpenCPN running on a small touch-screen laptop. The NV charts for the Bahamas run on OpenCPN, and are excellent!

Love the channel. Most of the comments are around the Caribbean and its requirements. Would love more info on sailimg around South America and South Africa and the additional boats requirements etc

Just stumbled across your video. I have just looked up a little about Lady K that you describe as a Hughs 35 (also I believe known as a Northstar 35/1500) designed by Sparkman and Stevens and described as once a racing boat. Lets back up a little because I find many modern day sailors don't know too much about this. In the sixties and seventies a yacht racing handicap system evolved called the IOR. Boats were measured and obtained a rating. Designers started designing boats that rated well and a boat could be slow for its size but fast for its rating. Many of these yachts had quite distorted hulls, wide beam, narrow sterns, masthead rig with HUGE genoas etc. A distinct style of yacht evolved and the Hughs 35 is an IOR style yacht. Further competitions evolved where boats of the same rating would race each other the 'ton' classes quarter, half, three-quarter, one and two ton being the most common. The term 'ton' has nothing to do with weight but long story short relates to a French yacht racing trophy of the 1890(?)s. Many of these racing 'ton' designs were then produced as racer/cruisers such as the Hughs 35. Lady K traces her origins to a three quarter ton design. Modern designs are not designed to IOR rules and are better for it but that said a lot of old IOR yachts are good solid boats that come well equipped and make adequate cruisers. Google IOR you strike me as the sort of person who might be interested in this stuff. Also google the Admirals Cup an international team sailing event sailed in the UK under IOR.

Myth #11 everyone out cruising is young

"As long as you're intelligent and keep your shit together". Well that rules out a few folks!!! Navionics is GREAT, but having fixed equipment to interface with auto-pilot is very nice also.

Great slogan: LADY K SAILING fuck’em, just do it!! 🤣

Another great video guys! I do have to hold you accountable and blame you guys for something.... we bought a small O'Day 19 day sailor in late fall. Hahahahaha. It's been under a tarp since the day I bought it, so I can't wait for the good weather to start fixing her up! So begins our sailing odyssey and you are completely to blame :P Keep up the great work!

As far as safety equipment. You just need to take caution and what ever you do, make sure you rent and watch “All is Lost” and what ever he does in that movie do the opposite.

“ I don’t mean to be sexist but the women usually think about the practical stuff, laundry, dishes”… no need to try to be PC. Generally there are blue jobs and pink jobs. Fact. Acknowledging and addressing such realities will help u achieve goals together. “Just go, do it” love it

Great video. I will say that my boat came with a nice garmin touchscreen chart plotter and I love it. However I have Navionics on a tablet and on my phone as back ups.

thought this was going to be horriable but it was really good! keep it up

Too real 💚💙💚💙

Are we hinting about a possible new boat?? And also are you planning on heading back to the Bahamas this year at all?👍👍

Have been bindge watcing your channel. and stopped for a short while to clean the inside of my truck ..... and OMG your theam tune ....I started humming it... please tell me how to stop humming it.

When I'm was asked how much does it cost to go cruising, I say whatever you have. If you have very little money, that what it costs; if you have lots, that how much it costs (you buy lots of toys and a watermaker). Interestingly, the view from the cockpit of a 28 footer is the same as from a 60 footer.

Great informational episode !!!! Are you two leaving out soon and if so do you have a tentative date?? Thanks

Hey, my Friend. When are you going back? Find sponsor. Boat Seller. anything related to the boat. Get Patreon. Go back we enjoy it!

Fuck'em! Great to see another video guys.

👍😊

First time i went sailing we were beating passing everyone then boat go overpowers stated blowo g 25 to 30 first time reefing with knowing nothing and gettong directions yelled at i couldn't hear Lord I was out of breath when i got her right lol

i know this is like 2 years old.. but have you guys done a video on MEDS.. like what if you have to have a particular medication, how do you handle meds? where do you get them? is it hard? and so on..

Let me see...less editing, easier flowing, more natural, treating audience as 'adults', picture in picture format, good humor,,,what's not to like about it? I'd thumb-up again if I could.

Number nine, Fuck'em! I love it!!

✌

More unseen footage when Lady K anchored next to me in Titsusville and came over for a visit. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hat0qpCLvdmRZ2w.html

Hey Guy's we are missing you! When are you back in your adventure? When are you coming to Panama? I wish you all the best and be back soon in the hot sunny temp of the south. Robert

I'm 45 I've been putting this off for 10 years just sold my house you're right buck'em I'm doing it.

Soooooo ... Are you two back "together" again ? Are you likely to do any future cruising together ?

I've taken off on a C130 far more times than I've landed. I love the chemistry with you two. She's fully onboard as well. Pun intended. You can't buy a boat for that sort of cash in the UK. I'm happy to buy a US registered boat and sail the Caribbean though. Is that allowed?

You said you would add a link to the other sailor guy! I'm not seeing it...

F#*k em....haha made me laugh cause it's so true.

You guys are great, I like your videos, if I could make one suggestion, get a T shirt that the collar is not stretched down to mid chest, you're a good looking guy, just put a little shine on things.

Hi guys, we are leaving from Lake Champlain this summer with a 28 feet sailboat. Your videos are great ! You mentioned one of your cruising buddy having a 26 feet boat, do you have the link for his videos?

F em. love it

on land it isn't knots for the wind - it's either mph or kmph - lol

Just that you want to get back at it after almost sinking is enough. What episode shows the glass over of the hull opening? Or could you do a video of all your repairs and discuss them. Pray and Thank you

I've been considering the cruising lifestyle and really enjoyed/appreciated the info. (And yes, you gained a new subscriber!) (Edit! Please see end of comment.) Can you provide any insight on your monthly living expenses? I'm trying to get the warm fuzzies on what to expect with the basics (ballpark $$). This will help in knowing what I can put aside for repairs and the unexpected. Many thanks! (Info: Just me and maybe a dog, and I'm looking at a liveaboard, 36' max.) Edit: Just watched E7: 'How much does sailing cost?'. Great info! Any major changes to it? Cheers! 🙂

Garmin owns Navionic haha and i have Navionic one my boat

What are your (or anyone) thoughts on towing a 13ft Boston Whaler behind a 35ft sailboat, from Fla to the Bahamas and South ?

Fuck em...love it 👍😂

I have a sparkmins stevens 35 foot 1975

Greetings from Hamilton. When you were talking about cats, would you be able to take one through the Erie canal or are they too wide? Are you going back down in the Spring?

Nice to see you back on KZfaq. You never finished sharing your return to your home port. Will we see that? And one more question, when will you share your future plans?

*I had to lower the volume for number 10 to make sure my wife didn’t here you 😁*

🤣😂🤣😂👍

F'em...just Do It..!@

Who built the boat? What is it called? (Not Lady K but the model)

My wife is scared of large water and cant swim. So why do i have that one :-)

I just want my gf to go and love it

Loved it! I agree fuck em! Everyone calls my wife and I crazy for our plans to sail. I say the same thing to them. Fuck em. My plan my goals my life!

Fun vid lucky man she’s a hottie! Cheers from St.Augustine

Welcome back! Can we get some f*ck em tshirts made? Pretty sure no one understands - @clarks.on.board

Easy fix.. stop using Facebook

I enjoy your videos, but you have hands down the most frustrating opening ever.

Lost patience at 2.30 when you were explaining yet again, what the video was about.

Why would you ever want to hang out with cruise ship people? Or even stay where cruise ships dock? Seems anti-cruisesailing to me.
