Garrett’s Adventure

10 ай бұрын

I'm Garrett. I'm 19 years old, and for the last year and a half I've been learning to solo sail the Hawaiian Islands and prepping my boat, a Nor'sea 27 to travel the world. After months at the harbor working on my boat, it's time to leave the dock and sail to French Polynesia. This is a 2,400 nautical mile upwind trip and should take about 25 days.
Thanks for watching the first 11 days of my passage! I had too much footage to fit it all into one video, so make sure to subscribe to see the rest of my voyage. Also, follow me on Instagram if you want

I'm 69 and used to own this very boat. She is very strong and over 400 of them were made. Cruising on a shoestring is hard. He has a Monitor windvane which is like a second crew member, only never gets tired or hungry. We have one on our "new" boat a 1991 28ft Bristol Channel Cutter. His lines look a little tight on it. He's young and has a very capable boat.

Crossing the Pacific Ocean at 19 years old is a remarkable adventure that embodies the spirit of exploration, discovery, and adventure. It requires careful planning, preparation, and perseverance, but the rewards of experiencing the vastness of the ocean, the beauty of the natural world, and the camaraderie of the sailing community make it a truly unforgettable journey

I respect it. Most rich kids prefer to flaunt their parents wealth and know nothing of hard work due to their upbringing. This kid, whose upbringing we know nothing about, clearly has spent a lot of time learning to sail and pushes himself into these kinds of challenges.

So far a wonderful adventure. When I was in your age area I was living aboard my S&S Chris Pawnee 26. I sailed her thousands of ocean miles. She lacked 2 things that your boat also lacks, as you found out the hard way. 1. A sea hood to protect the companionway slider from water forcing in. And 2. A cockpit dodger. And with skin like yours ( I’m the same) some sort of Bimini top or cockpit shade. Watch that sun, it killed my identical twin brother in his thirties. All of my cruising boats in the future had these 3 features. You, otherwise have a very nice boat. She goes windward well, especially for a heavy displacement full keel, and with that narrow beam (like my Alberg 35), she is easily driven. Interestingly, you have about the same waterline length as my A-35! Very good for you. My next boat a Kelly Peterson 44 had 39’ waterline. I shopped for waterline! Well enjoy the adventure! Looks like you are. Love it. Great job! PS. I’m now near 80 and still sailing!

As Christian Williams says on his channel, it's cheaper to just buy a large umbrella for a patio and put that over your cockpit as it will will just fine in most weather and you can take it down and heave to when it's not. Best to spend some effort modifying your entrance to be more water resistant
