So how remarkable your are: sail 36 hours thru weather bands, get no sleep, deal with boat stuff, keep an amazing positive attitude and still hv time to make this great video. Your sharing your lives & adventures is soo much fun. Thank you.

Glad you made it with that horrible storm, that's the huge problem in sailing high risk against storm and big waves, and sea sick, but your boat is tough, old boats are durable than new one's actually 👍

Yes indeed, be proud of yourselves, few do venture this far. I have been to Bequia and anchored at the same spot where you were, However I moved NE closer to town to avoid the swell coming in the bay. I was anchored in Carriacou when Bret went thru and I there was high winds only Saturday morning till noon. You took the right decision to come down south to avoid the worst of the storm. Cheers, Richard

Yikes!!!!proud of both of you.good job😊

Nice job you guys! Experience well earned!!! Thank you for taking us along!

I’m so proud of both of you 🫶🏼 you guys are amazing!!

Well that was crazy!!! What a passage into the fire! Good job guys!

Well Done!

Great job. Staying calm and thinking it through.

Wow! You two had a week 😮 I'm so happy you are safe and made it through. Salty sailors 🤙⛵️

A couple tough hombres ! Wow, tough sailing but, Tanner, you made me hungry with your Philly description. Way to go ! I felt sorry for Jaclyn but, she's tougher than she knows !

You took that pretty well. I understand about Tanner's stress. We were on a passage like that one time, and my wife kept taking pictures of the waves we were in, saying, "I'm going to send these to my mother, you're trying to kill me!" One of those passages, where the whole time you're thinking, "The second we get to port, we're putting this boat for sale!" They you finally get there, get a good night's sleep and you're sitting in the cockpit drinking coffee and thinking, 'That really wasn't that bad."

... Keeping calm and clear headed I would say is a biggy and you look like you have mastered that ... also talking with others and gleaning knowledge, well done .. those that are afraid to ask questions, is a sad thing and hurts themselves the most, Ego be gone .... Laughing ... when you mentioned steak and eggs, I was just finishing the last couple of mouthfuls ..... great video ... thx for the share ... as always ... never stop dreaming, just dream bigger ... have fun be safe, save our oceans ....

Nice Job! Glad ya made it through safely!! Nice courage both of you!

Wow hitting a wave reminded me of a time I was fishing along the coast of Western Australia , when my mate told me to never take your eye of the sea in front of you .here we were fishing in about 40 feet of water no wind flat calm water , after being in the same spot for about two hours when all of a sudden out of nowhere is this wave about 60 foot high thundering towards us I yelled out to my mate get your line in I started the outboard and went flat out up this wave almost stalled the motor the top of the wave was frothing white there was nothing behind the wave it was a sheer point the boat crashed over the wave I looked-up and there was another wave coming my mate was white as a ghost hanging on for dear life again going flat out up the second wave the first wave crashed behind us with a very load thunderclap, managed to get over the second wave only to see another 60 foot wave coming towards us again flat out up the third wave again a loud thunder clap behind us ,after getting over the third wave there was no more waves the water was flat calm . We were both so distressed we packed up and went back to camp . Will never forget it since then have learned that this can happen when there is a earthquake under the ocean which creates shock waves and move under water until it hits shallower waters and than shows up about the ocean level into a massive wave just like in our case we both survived but have a very healthy respect for the oceans

Good job on taking on that terrible storm 👍👍👍

Super proud of you TJ! I was kinda scared watching you go through the storm. I am so glad you were anchored in a solid place and persevered. Love you both!

Awesome job both of you

YA'll should probably look into catamarans. for the sea sickness! LOL

Adventures abound my friends! This life is not for everyone, but you guys are proving that your meant to do it! Keep it up guys!

Wow. Great vid and Bequia was one of my favourite places . I had 22 years cruising on my Fontaine Pajot Antigua 38 Cat called 'Alchemy' 5 years in the South Caribbean (Soca) in the 90's trying to do charters. I recommend you look at going down to Trinidad for the rest of hurricane season. Its latitude is south enough for the storms to form and track to the north so it felt a lot safer back in the day. Trinidad is English speaking and has some great yachtie facilities . And the best carnival. If you are going right round I'd avoid Venezeula totally ,but Panama is a lot of fun,and all those Pacific Islands are fabulous. I loved Tonga for a couple of years, then Brisbane to park it while I did a project for funds. I got as far as Phuket before the arthritus made me stop. So enjoy yourselves while you are young! Good luck

Wow that was nasty! I sailed for several years in my youth, although it wasn't ocean sailing I do remember getting tossed around during some squalls and some nasty summer storms. Nothing like you went thru, and definitely not over several days. Bravo for keeping cool heads.

Way to hang in there guys

Glad you guys are doing well. You’re always in my prayers for safe journeys. 😊💕💕

Congrats to you both for staying calm cool & collected! Cheers 👍🍻🙏🏼🙌🏼

Been binge watching your channel. We also have a 424. I'm curious to know if yours was a ketch and the mizzen pulled or was it built as a sloop? Keep up the good work! We're currently doing a major refit and we'll hopefully be out there next year!

Just saw the video and have been following the storm / you guys during Bret. Your video captured the true emotions! And both of you did excellent preparing for the unknown. Hate you had to go through it but you did excellent! And yes the video was excellent. But now time to get further south so you can enjoy! Keep up the great work!

Try to idle at least 1000 rpm, it will stop from glazing and carbon build up. Went through a NorEaster 60 miles per hour winds for 2 days. Sucks, but you did a great job with your ground tackle. You have too worry about others dragging..

Sorry, you guys having a tough time. Tanner, I only live 15 minutes from south philly. What type sandwich were you talking about? Cheese steak, Italian hoagie?

I’ve been thinking about you all week,hoping you were safe during the two tropical storms.

Oh , and I now see you are doing Panama ,,,, So a bit more free advice if you can take it? Its VERY seasonal ! Now is hurricane season till September . Dont believe me, Believe the Pilot Books that you need to have for this stuff , Me? I did go down to Trinidad . Good place to sort all out .Then a big one round to the Canal . There will be up to date info on stops if you need them I dont have that info anymore. Once in the Pacific it will be light wind out to Galapagos, Then once you find the trade winds you will have many days downwind and perfect. I do hope it has not changed ! I gave up on spinnakers for cruising after my Atlantic crossing . That Frenchman in St Martin sold me a 'Whopper', ha ha . Twin light weight genoas on one roller luff . Great to go goosewinged for days . Then when a squall comes thru you just roll it in . Or reach off and halve the sail area. And it was pulling from the front so easy steering for the autopilot. Go slowly through the French Islands! I had a big falling out with my American ladyfriend in Tonga as she was always rushing to the next . Thats why I like you two! Enthusiastic, competent and compatible Enjoy, and as that Trini loved to say ' May the wind be always at your back side ,,,,,,' Jack Alchemy

You guys be safe no reason to take unnecessary chances and try ginger!

Well done. I would call that from mildly brutal to fairly brutal. I now know a little more about you, you're a two patch girl under pressure. It doesn't matter that this video shows a situation from months ago, you prevailed. ❤🙏

C'est le métier de navigateur qui s'apprend 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
