That was the most impressive display of flexible solar panels I've seen to date. Not only the adhesive but being able to survive being twisted and flexed the way they were. Nice job on the edit by the way.

Never did I imagine this sailing channel would turn into an everyday diy tech channel 😔

Thanks Cap Maddy little Ricci😇🥰 and Crew ❣👍 Old F-4 Shoe🇺🇸

What a beautiful anchorage! The water is magnificent! I thought the video was well paced and enjoyable- of course it was great to see you and your present life. Keep it interesting and keep finding the things that are unique and informative. Really liked seeing the application of the solar shade, maybe something Nate can consider for his boat. Glad to hear its so durable and can generate 2 kw. Really enjoy your postings. Stay safe and well!

Nothing wrong with the editing could follow along great.

The nice thing about k&n air filters is that they are washable AKA reusable

Rick lookin' jacked!!! good job bro!

Great episode Bro always nice to hear from you 🤜🤛

I love all the solar panels. I was just talking about doing those flex panels last night. You have the best boat ⛵ in the Caribbean

Great video

Enjoyed the visit, thanks. I use the K&N filters in both of my 10 cylinder 8.4 L; 511.5 cu in Dodge Viper engines with excellent results. Very good quality in my 15 years of use. Looking forward to the next update.

Struggling trying to find my new bathtub but it’s seems so close. Great vid!!!!!! Love all of you ❤

Topstuff Captain Rick!

Tks 4 sharing video captain

That Dingy on the other boat is being hauled very strangely. That solar panel adhesive is pretty amazing.

Thank you for the great video my friend,,,watch you after work 😜

Voice has changed Good vid, Clear water

Great work Christian, clearly not your first rodeo. Rick,Who can focus on links in an anchor chain following the thong leiden bronze buns before that.

I don’t mind black smoke when it means horsepower and torque however in your case I wouldn’t like it either. In your case it wasn’t able to burn the fuel off fully during the combustion cycle due to improper lack of oxygen obviously caused by your clogged air filter. Pretty good idea going to something more universal easier to find as well as much cheaper. Glad to see you all doing well. Best wishes from Texas!

Its called MAINTAINENCE ! LACK OF IT ! Just like the exhaust system from 3 years ago ?

What a deal, buy a computer and get personalized training in the process! Nicely done video!

Some air filters are also tuned to lessen noise.

Gee he is a lucky fella to have you as a teacher your the best! Wish I could get you to teach me!!! My videos are still in infant mode 😅

Good job on the editing. I liked the pacing. too many editors in my opinion use too short of clips and dont hold the shot long enough. This video was so much more enjoyable to watch because the shots were not too short or too long. I think you nailed it. You kept the action moving, but it wasn't herky jerky. I do'n't know who all has been running the camera but a lot of the shots were aimed too low cutting off peoples heads or cutting off the tops of other boats. I enjoyed the still shot in the middle of Ricci. though it could have been held for maybe 3 more seconds. Just my opinion. I still think you did a good job. Last thought. Christian.. you seem like a good guy. Please lose the click click hand signs.. If you are going to do it, then only once per video. This is a sailing channel. this isn't hip hop. I would bet the ladies would prefer just a calm shot of you enjoying yourself and if doing the closing, then something simple. a hand wave. a cheers with a drink.. something like that. Just my opinion. everyone likes different things so please dont take this too harshly. I really did enjoy the video and the water was gorgeous. I'm so jealous. It has been so long since I have been to the Caribbean. Yall are living the life. Cheers mate !

Yes

NAPPA Auto parts makes a replacement kit for a Ford 2002 7.3, that will work, with a little modification..

Towing the dinghy on the backstay chain plate is stressing it in the wrong direction.

❤

I was holding out hope that Tiki might surprise return to the Lady but now that you're moving around I guess that's even less likely now.

It looks like your RPM was 1600. If that was full throttle you may have too much prop pitch. Larger Beta's list 2800 as max RPM so 80% of that for max cruise is 2240. That's a big source of black smoke.

Rick. Any updates with your throat? Thanks for the video.

Captain rick, can you please tell me those flexible solar panel names and wattage

😎

Black smoke usually means a clogged air filter or dirty air intake screen

I don't understand how that filter can be clogged up and so dirty already? Also, you can't wash the existing filter? My personal opinion is don't go with K&N, you have to spray oil on them and if the existing one got so clogged up, wait until you see how fast those get clogged. They are designed to keep you having to get new one's.

Hey Rick White Smoke is no fun either.

Hey, is Tiki back?

I’ve been away for a while what happened to ricks voice?

I'm a fisherman so you can imagine what I make 😊

who writes "condemned "on a life raft?

😎👍👍👍❤

adım baya uzun faro dedeler küsmesin diye kısaca abc abi desen yeter

Why has the voice changed?

So I know your on a boat, but your covered in tech , I begin to wonder where the boat is and the tech stops.

How old is Richie now?

faro baba şimdi nerdesın

Speaking of editing...time to update your lead-in and update Lit'l Ricki! The current lead-ins are several months old. Gotta keep current!

When are you actually gona take care of that voice Rick, surely the longer you wait the worst its gona get?

Sorry but her accent is too hard for us Louisiana people to understand. LOVE her though!

Hey brother please dont take this the wrong way but have you had your throat or vocal cords checked? The way you sound is kinds concerning. Please know im not trying to pry in your business. Just a concerned follower.

What may acceptable on the beach on aboard a boat, with a large audience a certain number of people will find such offensive. Ergo, in that such displays of near nudity add little to content, why alienate those offended

Do you guys ever do anything besides hang out on the boat? I've never seen you once go snorkeling or use your scuba tanks or go fishing.

Rick it doesn't sound like your voice is getting any better. You really need to get to a doctor and have your throat and all that stuff checked out, and I guarantee the sooner the better. It could be something very very serious.
