Double Breasted - The Skinny Water Route to Paradise
Рет қаралды 93,008
5 жыл бұрынRide along as we take a very shallow route into the inner anchorage at Double Breasted Cays, Abacos, Bahamas. You'll see how seagrass can be deceiving and the way currents grab Clarity and push her toward a sand bank. But all the stress....it is worth it! This is one of the prettiest spots we've ever been to!

That was one of best anchoring episodes I have seen as you just took the time to narrate the entire procedure and details / depths , scope etc. with the graphics. Just a really great episode to watch. Many of my fav sailing channels have done anchoring episodes but not like this detailed and such a good pace to follow you guys in the shallows with all of your commentary.

Something I enjoy about this channel is I can see a phrase I don't understand mentioned, in this case "short scoped", and being naturally incessantly curious I tab over to dive down a google-fed rabbit-hole and hop back to this tab 25 minutes later, having an elementary but solid understanding of basic anchoring principles. The things you guys talk about inspire me to learn and that, I think, is one key factor to what's drawn me to your channel and this particular kind of content. In most every video I watch, you either teach me something new I didn't know (and didn't know I wanted to know), or you point me towards something new to learn myself.

Hi Nick, I really enjoy your videos! I'm two years and counting from transitioning to the mostly-liveaboard lifestyle and your videos are a great source of information for someone without a ton of experience and no boat yet, but a mind for learning and planning. Thank you for that. If you ever find yourself looking for topics for video content, I think it would be very interesting to learn about your camera(s)/editing setup and your solution for internet access. Maybe you've already covered that at some point - I'm still making my way through your videos. Cheers!

That was real heart-in-mouth stuff ! Those rudders look a little . . . ummm . . . _exposed_ . We're really spoilt in our little trailer yacht - bump the bottom, no problem - just pull up the swing keel & rudder and she floats in 12" of water. We're starting to wonder how much it would cost to freight our boat to the Bahamas in a shipping container. It looks like a trailer sailers' paradise - almost as good as our Australian Whitsundays & Fraser Island ! Thanks for a fantastic video, Gavin & Amanda.
@TheOKellys 5 жыл бұрын
Oh now that would be really cool. I do wonder if Bahamas customs would ding you for import if you did that. It's really intimidating, but you could actually Cross from Florida in just about anything if you had the right weather. Follow me here: instead of waiting for hurricane season to end, take it over and find a nice quiet spot for the boat when the winds are still mild - say in September. Then come back and cruise it when the threat of storms is gone. It could be done. Would be an amazing adventure. Draft like that could get you into some really sneaky little spots that the rest of us can't touch. Hope we see you out there!

@@TheOKellys - I wrote that post from the heart Nick. I've seen your videos, watched the Shards on Distant Shores, Sailing Nahoa and of course, Sailing la Vagabonde. The Bahamas look almost beyond description. You can keep the tiger sharks though 8-). BUT it's so very safe to comment on a KZfaq channel being run by dangerous people - the people living their dreams with their eyes wide open, making dreams into reality . . . Seriously - you are both living the life I have been steadily heading towards for the last 18 years. I bought "Live on the Margin" this morning. I am looking forwards to reading it and seeing if there is a way to help accelerate the process. I have already "Got her onboard". I also have a background in small business, and am painfully aware of just how precious my time is. We just have to figure out the way. We are on the path. Will definitely look you up when we make it to the Bahamas. Cheers, Gavin.

Excellent. That's fabulous. Pat and I wrote LOM because of getting the question all the time about how we'd done it so young. Everyone thinks it is about money. It isn't strictly about the money. It's not about the boat. Or rig. Or whatever. Our consumerist society has us programmed to think it is about having the right toy for the job. It is about the attitude and the mentality, and that's what you learn once you go do it. Because you are going to end up one day in an anchorage (and I don't mean this metaphorically or symbolically, but in REALITY) anchored next to a $80M yacht on one side and a $5000 yacht on the other. And you are going to be swimming in the same water, going to the same beach, chasing the same lobster, etc., etc. And the more you do that, the more you see that the adventure is maybe greater for the guy on the small boat, and that's what really matters. So yeh, you gotta have some dough to make the show go, but that's not what it's all about. I am really inspired to hear of anyone who is putting together a plan to do this stuff in whatever manner or fashion, because while they might think the adventure still awaits, I know that their adventure has already begun. It is a magical time. Soak it up.

@@TheOKellys Thanks for your thoughtful reply Nick. You are spot on - we are on our way - and loving it - living our dreams the best way we can right now. The Pardy's idea of go small, go simple, go NOW is beautiful. That's why we still have a trailer sailer (and a _reliable_ 4WD). We both work full time, and we sail all over our local area most weekends. Our holidays are spent on longer trips to interstate destinations that would take three weeks just to reach by sail, one way, weather permitting. We get there in two or three days - have our adventure & tow home in two or three days. We keep our boat in the carport, so it's easy to maintain & she's (hopefully) fairly safe. The Bahamas keep popping up in our KZfaq feed & it's really caught Amanda's imagination. We'll just have to find a way . . . Thanks for your wonderful videos and making the time to chat with me. Hope to share an anchorage, one day. Cheers, Gavin .

Then the play by play from the aerial footage was great. Then we saw sugar and our heart just melted a little bit. Because we have several animals that are up there in age. Anyway, one of the things Annette mentioned was, "honey do you see how calmly they speak to each other when they are in shallow water and anchor". lol I have to admit just watching that under water cam video and how close you guys were had my heart racing.

Hey Nick - second the kudos on the underwater view... really adds ‘depth’ to the various perspectives (pun only partially intended 😁). I actually used a similar trick a couple of years ago when helping a guy deliver an old cat across the Gulf to Kemah TX - we had snagged a crab pot line that had apparently broken loose and was in about 1000 ft of water, and weren’t sure if it was going to foul the prop. We were doing about 5.5 kts though, so I had to jab the makeshift camera extender down into the water along side the port hull and let it swing through an arc - took me a couple of tries but eventually got a really good look at the line snagged up close to the hull... we ran that way all the way across the Gulf. Great video, love the ‘this is how we did it’ content.

Nick O'Kelly I’d brought my mask, fins and snorkel for cases like that, but we were in 5-6’ following seas and my experienced friend who’d come along for his knowledge (8 years of full-time Pacific cruising, but mid-70s with some diabetes-related health issues so not able to contribute physically) was concerned about possible injury if the boat came down on top of me... the only other able-bodied crew was the owner, as his friend got seasick less than 25 miles off Ft. Myers Beach and basically wasn’t seen again for 6 days until we were inside Galveston Bay. I didn’t think about it until later, but I had a serrated-edge Spyderco knife that I could’ve lashed to the boat pole and sawed the snag away from outside the hull shadow. Turns out it didn’t cause any problems until we were dodging ships anchored in the fairway anchorage at the entrance to the Bay, so we just motored up the bay and into the marina on the starboard engine without issue. Unfortunately for my friend Stu, that trip was when he realized that he no longer had any business doing off-shore passages...
@TheOKellys 5 жыл бұрын
Well that's a good reason not to go in. Your friend is smart. I once sawed through a huge kelp wrapped in the prop off Pt Conception using a dive knife hoseclampled to a boat hook. There was no chance I was going in that water while single handing... one knock to the head and that'd be it!

Thank you Jim. Appreciate the feedback. I am going to buy a bunch of gopros when I get back and just put more an more angles into these videos. I agree it makes the coverage more complete. Nick

Great job on the video with introduction of chart graphics, pointers, description and view of the hull. That water is amazing. Thanks for not overlaying the video with music! Keep it real!

Awesome video Nick! just love the camera in the water for the delicate maneuvering required and on the mast. Keep up the great videos guys and keeping it real. We will be taking our RYA Day Skipper practicals in the next few weeks in Greece. The plan being to get out there in the next couple of years.

I think this is the second time I watched this, and had to drop a comment on the use of multiple camera angles including underwater and editing and drone support shots and graphics. You did a really excellent job of cinematography.

Hey thanks. I'm one lucky guy! Places like these are why I keep buying boats and doing this craziness. Sugar has been loving it in here. Can't even swim over to shore without her barkin to come along. I love to see it! Thanks for the note.
