You are one of my top 2 favorite travelers. The reason why is that you don't NEED to sail with others. That doesn't mean that you don't like sailing with others, it's that you don't really mind setting out alone.

The old question, should I cut the red wire or the blue wire? When they're all black, check the polarity and mark them so you know. Glad you didn't let the smoke out of the new auto pilot.

So nice to see that sparkle in your eyes again. Great to see you in the sun, out enjoying adventures with friends. Bill has gotten great at tackling the projects with ingenuity, and has such a wonderful attitude doing so. Can’t imagine doing video’s while still completing projects and maintaining your composure when things don’t go right, but Bill continues to master this! Not everyone is as positive as the two of you. The videography has really improved, looking great. Keep up the wonderful work you two! You’ll be off to the Pacific in no time.

Glad to see that auto-pilot finally updated and ready to go, boy it won't be long now. Having watched Delos and One Life this past season, I really can't wait for you to make your crossing and finally be rewarded for all your hard work, all the delays, the health issues behind you and the south pacific's beauty to behold. No one deserves it more, that's for sure!!

I love your vids as they have proper sailing and you have underwater diving, what makes me laugh as a UK diver is if you have what you think in bad vis, UK divers would be over the moon with a quarter of what you get, if we can see our feet it is plenty for us.😉

Is that town expensive ? Do they have an airport ? Or do you need to sail in or drive in ?

Not too bad.. the closest airport in Manzillo about an hour away. Although it’s seems flights are cheaper to Puerto Vallarta

It seems like almost everybody. Auto pilot goes out when they’re crossing

@evinwhiteson4902 5 ай бұрын

Very true. I sail solo and carry 3 complete pilots. Cause they always break. Theres too many working parts. But they are reliable. It's the ocean state that breaks them when it's rough. I have 1 that's 10 years old.

@CalicoSkiesSailing 5 ай бұрын

Ya that’s for sure. We def needed a fresh one before setting off

@terryandhope 5 ай бұрын

@@CalicoSkiesSailing if you are going to say that the auto pilot is broken I understand that. However, if you describe every nut and bolt that goes into that you lose me there. You may have an audience for that kind of thing, but I would think it’s mainly men. I love to watch you sail and I’m sure that you will get to that when you are ready.

@CalicoSkiesSailing 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for the response Terry! Soooo I (Grace) myself am with you 100% But yea the male contingent is a different story 😂 There are other aspects of our lives that we can film even while in this 'prep' phase but I always struggle to know what viewers are interested to see and since we've been focused on boat projects and we're not truly 'cruising' atm its an easy one! But my jam is the diving, sailing, anchor life and I know there is a portion of our viewers who favor that which makes me so happy because that's why we're doing this. So happy to hear you're looking forward to the sailing, I'm right there with you. Real time we've got just over a month so call it 4 or 5 more 'prep' videos and we'll be at sea again!! ha.🤗
