That’s what I call fresh fish❤

Are you guys OK ? Did you guys quit on sailing or split up ?

Great job guys! And the bird, did the bird make it to dry land?

gj

Gj guys. Also I laughed so hard when you panned to the bird under table. He looked miserable haha

Total risk to boat and crew for a junk boat. Bad call to tow captain. Rescue and leave.

Amazing job guys. So many would have left the boat behind. When towing you could get the boat being towed to chuck out a stern line with a few knots in it. They will stop his boat surfing down the waves and turning sideways. Anyways in the end you made it and that in itself says you did something right. David may not have known you were trying to hand him over to a more suitable towing vessel the coast guard. In any case the most important thing is you did what makes the world a great place, the good shines bright in some of us. Well done and happy sailing.

I think you did as well as you could, it's the Frenchman who was under-prepared.

You should have spoken the universal language of $$$ for rescue.

Lets see rig a sail out of anything available or bob around on the ocean for 3 days hmmmm tough one.

Why would one not rig a temporary sail? when I sail the oceans someday a fully expect this as a possibility or a broken rudder.

Great video!

Shame on Grenada and Trinidad smh

OMG ! You guys are amazing! We need more people like you in the world. ❤️

Sorry new to your channel. Im assuming you had the air con installed from the factory? We are looking at a 2020 Lucia in Greece no air con. Would it be impossible to retro fit?

Did you end up financing the boat?

One of the best sailing videos on YT,the stranded gentlemen was so fortunate to cross paths with your vessel in the great big ocean❤❤❤❤ Did you ever get your fenders back?.

Next time remove the anchors from both bats and connect the two chains together for a weightWhen the line goes tight it will dampen the shock. That is why you have chain on youir anchor, to dampen the shock on the anchor so the shank of the anchor stays paralell to the ground. If you have a big heavy plow anchor, leave it on. Tug boats tow with steel cables that dont stretch so they have to be far enough away from the barge that the weight of the cable does the job. They can get as much as 1/2 to 3/4 mile part. Dont try to go between them.

Over and above the call of duty. Your humanity is to be congratulated and admired. Thank you for your amazing efforts to save a life. 👍👍👍👏👏👏🏆🏆🏆🙏🙏🙏😎😎😎

Amazing work you guys did. Everyone of you are heros.

You did an amazing job. And over here we have this saying: In hindsight you look a cow in the ass….

You guys were brilliant. Awesome humans. Merry Christmas

Is there a way to make the Line like a spring maybe by using ancore chain or something heavy that you will not get the snapping of the rope?

Coco Real Hero !!!

What do you think of the Isla 40 compared to yours? :) Nice boat!

You guys were amazing 😂God bless you 🙏.

great job thank you!

great video until she put on a mask. sad

Where have you guys been? Is all ok? Are you still sailing? Miss you.

Good job, you should have a tow line as long as possible a extra 30m + would be ideal for this job. The long rope under water acts as a hydraulic shocker, a spring effect, plus alonger line has more elasticity, all this relieving a lot of strain on line and boats.

Thank you for saving him from South Korea! ❤❤

Yet another sailing channel gone missing without any explanation to the thousands of subscribers!

wow, you guys did amazing, real heroics, well worth an hour's watch

I see people typing about fuel cost ,I've saved more then a few lives and there's no feeling that compares to saving a life ,Compared to a stack of cash!

Don't shed a tear often but i did here god bless you guys

Can't believe there "coast guard" would not help!

YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME

you are the heroes

great video, funny part was the bird under the table

Two ropes, fantastic guys. You know what you are doing 😊

Thats Good you put your health first.

hey guys, where have you gone??

From an American view, this is not the first time the Brits have rescued the French...

From your experience, what length of tow rope would be/have been ideal in that situation?

You were there. We just saw a video. You guys did the right thing and it worked out. Case closed. Great job!

fishing with a squid JIG ??

You guys still sailing, not seen a video in a while?

Thanks for this French guy (I am also French 😊) I didn't read all the comments, and can not anderstant every thing you say due to my average english level. I assume that people certainely told you that having a rope, then a chaine (for the weight) then a rope againe could have helped to reduce extreme tension due the waves. And maybe avoid rope breaking. The weight of the chain in the middle would have act as a tension absorber. Anyway, you did a wonderful job! And you did great by using very long ropes to absorb as much as possible tension peaks. Greeting from France.

Hi guys, we have a Lucia as well. Looking for a clip when you did some work in anchor locker to make platform for diesel jerrycan storage. Can you let me know what episode? And any footage on lining your forepeaks?

It takes a whole truck load of compassion and empathy to perform a rescue of any description, hat's off to you, you performed well and made an epic rescue possible. Humanity at it's best, no borders and lots of care for others. Let's hope the fellow sailor is prepared for his next sailing trip.
