when the bell rings you know its bad

Love that you enjoyed it here on Canada’s east coast and thanks for Two thumbs up for Nova Scotia! Glad to hear that Canada is “first world”. 😂. And watch out for the Bay of Fundy tidal current.

Excellent share, have a great day

I think the bell is telling the tale. Great video.

Been a while that the bell announced that it was time to hunker down...thanks for keeping it real Kevin.

Good video, always enjoy your true sailing skills on a small capable boat

Nice sailing

I wish we would have met you while in the usa

That's some nasty, steep choppy waves. Once I hear that bell , I know it's getting gnarly. Great episode. Go figure, forecast was right about the light stuff.

Fantastic! Loved the video of the rough seas.

once again, Kevin, thanks...

Great to have the Code Zero option. With her speed up, Ruth Avery was cutting through the swell as if on rails.

Another good one

Thank you

Thanks have fun !

With each of your videos, Kevin, I am reminded of my own impatience. I watch you do what you do while thinking that I would surely slap that outboard on the back to pass into and out of harbors, at the very least. That is a choice, of course, an expedient one at that, but it brings up the spirit of the idea of the road less taken. I'm sure that I gain time on every occasion that I turn on the diesel, but I never think of what gets lost, of the opportunity cost of doing so. In the mad rush of ordinary life, time is the master we often serve, but isn't the escape from that one of the many pleasures of sailing? Why haul that urgency onto the boat with me, and make a place for it inside my own mind? Your approach inspires in me the memory of a line from A River Runs Through It, "To him, all good things -trout as well as eternal salvation- came by grace; and grace comes by art; and art does not come easy." I guess I see in your style, and am made jealous by, an attempt at art which I so easily and consistently forego. I hope this speaks to the depth of gratitude with which I enjoy your channel, so thank you. Keep it up, Kevin, and stay dry.

We are near 4 months behind Kevin and I'm,sure your in warmer waters , catch a few rays for all of is in northern New England.

I'm from Argentina but I think it's great that people from the US travel and spend their money in the US. Tourism helps local businesses a lot and is a way to make the country grow. Your advice seems wonderful to me.

Another great episode sailing Kevin well done cheers from Australia

Amazing sailing and great videos, really enjoy seeing what you do!

That was a real nice video Kevin. Thank You for sharing.

Exciting adventure sailing. Thanks.

That was some serious current kicking up those waves.

Great videos brother

I cruised Nova Scotia 30 years ago. Loved it. Sounds like it hasn’t changed. Your next destination should be New Foundland. When I left Nova Scotia I sailed direct to Bermuda. It was late in the season and I didn’t have time to hop down the coast.

I agree completely with your recommendation for Canada as a destination. I did not make it to Nova Scotia, but was as impressed as you were with my voyage to Newfoundland. A great alternative to the Caribbean. Fair winds.

Great videos! Youre a seasoned sailor and your comentaries are always interesting and positive. I have really enjoyed following this seasons voyages. Can youvsend me the link to your video on wind vane set up. Im hoping to get into this in my off season down in New Zealand

Shelburne is also a pretty area for bicycling... I was there in the 90's, and the roads there are better than in the US! The drivers seemed more considerate too.

Round Rock, with no GPS, in Fog. At least I had a motor .

More gnarly please.

Do you get alot of wear on your pintels and gudgeons? Do you have anodes on them? How about wear at tiller- rudder connection? Have an SC 31, cutter rig with Monitor windvane. One of the best channels btw

Thanks for the great video. The line that holds (wraps?) the mainsail to the mast seems small in diameter. The video at around 5:00 gives a good view. Do you use something like Dyneema for that line or is there just not as much pull on that line as one would think?

First world in Canada go figure 😂 were you expecting snow and dogsleds?

no lobster pots in summer either. Maine is beautiful but treachorous. I think what keeps many from going up to Canada is the 12 month max or risk paying major fines or import taxes on your boat. If they stretched that to 24 months and you could get two seasons our of the journey, many would venture north.

South, south, south ho!

Kevin you crack me up. Those Caribbean sailors won't be caught in Nova Scotia. They want babes in bikinis. 😊 Or guys in speedos. 😮 The northern sailors are beasts in boats. All kidding aside, I'm glad all is well. When you get to an address, let me know.

Did u get the waves right on the beam? i had some big waves and got really pooped when i went wind against current and scared for taking them beam on again.. does waves on the side concern you at all?

I have not seen a video about entering and exiting Canada as a US citizen. In my case I have an Asian wife with a US green card so knowing the process and seeing what you do would be interesting for anyone actually planning to stop in Canada.

I like this channel, but 4-5 months delay on the videos is quite long......

I enjoy your videos but 4 plus months behind on content. I keep waiting for you to catch up. I’ll be unsubscribing. Been watching your channel for a few years. Good luck wherever you are now almost 5 months later 🤦🏻‍♂️
