We have finally moved aboard our wooden boat, a 1960 Ingrid Ketch, and cast off the dock lines on an open-ended adventure, sailing north to the San Juan Islands. We enjoyed this spectacular sailing ground for six weeks as a shakedown cruise for the longer bluewater voyages we have planned. The pristine waters and easy conditions of the San Juan Islands are the perfect place to gain confidence and finish preparing the boat for the open ocean.
The dinghy is an Annabelle Skiff designed by Dave Gentry. I shortened it to 9 ft to fit on the cabin top. gentrycustomboats.com/Annabell...

Always impressed by these Ingrids sailing qualities. Lovely cruising weather, how lucky can you get. I bet the rocks and reefs up there must get stressful at times, I don't blame you for not hanking on more sail as tempting as it must have been. Nothing ruins a great days sailing like hitting an uncharted rock at seven knots..

Just found your channel. Has a great vibe. I used to live in the Gulf Islands for 20 years but now back here in Australia. I needed more sun and birds and definitely less rain. But you cannot beat it there when conditions are right. We still like wooden boats here and there's a great wooden boat festival in Hobart every 2 years. Iron fastenings don't do well in the warmer water when you get in the tropics just be aware of that.

The sound is some cold water to be swimming in. Even in the shallow spots in the dead of summer. I remember diving in Hood's Canal when I was a kid and being too tired to get back in the boat. We tied a string of old inner tubes and just pulled up on those until the sun warmed us up enough to clamber up into the boat. The end of that boat was coming in off the strait in a storm. Snapped the boom, tore up the storm jib.

Just found your channel. And it was kind of heartbreaking. I've been watching Salt & Tar for years. And have so LOVED every single episode. As I did your first couple videos. Then you set sail. I'm subscribed to every wooden boat channel I've been able to find. And yet I subscribe to ZERO sailing channels. And that breaks my heart. They're about to set sail. Will it be a bittersweet departure from their channel? I'm sad thinking about it. Who knows? Wait and see. The improvements to your beautiful boat were wonderful. Stay safe out there and fair winds and following seas. Enjoy.

@MadisonBoatworks 2 жыл бұрын

We row, unless the distances are long and then we use the sailing rig. In practice we row most of the time, sailing mostly for fun. It saves a lot of headache and expense over an outboard. Of course the average RIB doesn't row very well so most people never know how pleasant rowing can be.
