But to cross the ocean, don't you need a Yachtmaster certificate?

Is this guy lying?

Very nice...thanks

I have albin vega 27😃🤝🇩🇰

I have £34,000 in investments. No bills. No debts. I have a £300,000 house, no mortgage, rented out, which gives me £1000 pcm. Why don't I have a yacht yet?

Miss you and the videos. Good winds always

Malou, please sail to Cape Horn, Cape of Good Hope. Sure exciting

Lin is a super girl...😊

My son has a 41 ft boat and he's installing a thousand Watts with eight batteries I want to counter that's all room we can find room for panels

Really support the advice regarding smaller boats. I’m currently in a bigger boat, and it’s a completely different deal cost wise.

I'm from Portugal Is it possible to buy a boat in Sweden ?

Can you take pot to smoke up on the ocean?

Kitchen on a boat lololol. what a goon

Tack sumi keat...so nice video.😊

Maybe you can find someone to trade their boat for my travel trailer😊

My wife and are doing this next year. We own our own company in landscaping now and we are just going to finish this season out, and in the meantime we are selling all our pocession as we speak. We have roughly $50k in equity in our house, one fully paid off truck worth about $25k, all our mowing equipment at about $20k, regual tools and valuable pocessions like furniture etc at about $15k, and we have $10k in savings and hope to save up another 5 before next year. So we are hoping to have $125k ish in cash when we finally sell everything. Then, we plan on getting about a "ready to go" boat in the $30k range, or around that, and have $100k left over to use to travel the world. We have no debt besides our house, so we will literally have no payments. We are only 27 and 28, so obviously it wont last forever. We will cross that bridge when we get there.

I just purchased a 1964 Contest 25 for $20. It cost me about $1000 in trailer upgrades, fuel and trailer repairs to get her home. She is not in horrible condition and I hope to be sailing her next year.

I just bought a 1964 Contest 25-1 for $20. I transported her home on a trailer made for my Catalina 22. I pulled her with my 35ft International school bus from Washington DC to Huntsville, AL. I spent $1000 or less in fuel, trailer upgrades and emergency repairs. I am going to begin restoring her and getting her ready. The trip home was a long one. I stopped often to let the trailer tires rest. I had to jack the boat up and shift her forward. I had to hit the brakes hard to keep from hitting a car that pulled in front of me. That required trailer repairs. I managed my speed and my equipment. I crossed the Eastern Continental divide with no trailer brakes. At some point, I realized that getting this boat home was training me for sailing. The journey took far longer than expected and it required me to be innovative and repair things along the way.

What kind of man does that thumbnail with that toothy smiley thing - Dude, seriously, at least try to act like a man. Such a turn off.

Nice vídeo! Thanks! What about if you double the bet?!

Milk run stays low latitude where seas are relatively calm and stable.

How in the heck do you find a ,$2000 boat with an inboard that is sea worthy?

I wish i could get healthcare for 2400 a year

That was funny listening to you re "the milk run". Keeping shooting the breeze!

Yeah. 10-30K for multiple people is not just doable, it’s being done on the regular

Cruising permits, cost for Panama Canal? So I would add a few 1000

How about just not sailing if you are broke? Thats not a lifestyle for poor people to have.

for me its less about money and more about being "locked" to my current lfe. I have a 3 bed house i could rent out i guess which would pay for the life, but i also have a wife who hates the water, and would never give up her home two cats who id miss and feel like i cant escape my corpo job which sucks arse. no kids though thank god only option for me, and most others is to earn more pennies to do both..

I love the Albin Vega since long, long time. So after a long period of none sailing and far away from the ocean I just bought one for starting sailing again.... Best boats!

We're a family of 4 living on a 32' ketch, we've been cruising and full time liveaboards for almost 12 years now sailing about the world, we live really really well off of $10k USD a year. We've never felt like we've been without. Don't let anyone tell you you need a gigantic boat or a gigantic wallet.

What’s the latest big dawg

Hallå mannen

It's been a while 😔😔

I was looking up cost of flying a private airplane and now im here lmao I'm just trying to shake things up in my life

This is perfect as someone trying to start long distance sailing at 22!

My friend bought Storfidra for 560 euro in 2020. You may find a video about it "storfidra for 500 euro".

When sailors talk about "The Milk Run," they're referring to those routes that are pretty smooth sailing-kind of like taking the easy street around the globe. It's the kind of path you'd pick if you want to keep things straightforward, catching the best winds and currents. Take the Pacific crossing, for example. That's a classic Milk Run. You ride those trade winds from the Americas over to Australia or New Zealand. It's popular because the weather's generally on your side, making it a reliable choice if you're not looking for any rough and tumble at sea. It's all about getting from A to B with as little fuss as possible-just cruising and enjoying the ride.

Are these numbers realistic now that they are 3yrs old?

Hey Gustav, question: I’m deciding between a Vega and a Ballad, I know they’re both legendary, seaworthy boats capable of long passages and live aboard. But I see some conflicting info on the compared sturdiness. Some people have said a Ballad isn’t as sturdy as a Vega because of its fin keel-it was primarily envisioned as a racer. But still, it displaces more. It’s heavier and that skeg provides sturdiness right? I’ve seen some forums claim that a Ballad is a much more comfortable sail, and other say they’d rather do a long passage in a Vega because of its legendary seaworthiness. What’s your opinion? Is there a real difference or is it useless fine picking?

Bostrom looks decent. A bit more expensive, but trailable, still very, very cheap for 31 feet and sea capability.

nah imma just build my own boat out of wood, make it cool and classical, it'll be slow but it'll make up for this in its size, i'm thinking 30-40 feet, then i'll rationalize the fuck out of my food supply's like it's the golden globe race, spend some good time in the roaring forties, maybe spend some time in new zealand or other south pacific islands but i love the isolation so maybe i could go non-stop. for auto steering i'll just copy and paste joshua slocum lmao. for navigation i'll get me some charts, a compass and a sextant cuz there's no point in that stupid ass digital shit when they're both doing the exact same thing, route wise i'll either do something like harry pigeons solo sail around the world or if i'm in a hurry i'll take the golden globe race route.

Fuglen heter rype tror jeg⛵️⛵️⛵️

Probably cheaper to go around south america these days

👏👏👏⚓️⚓️⚓️

👏👏⚓️⚓️⚓️

Thank you for milk run

Excellent video. I want your boat.

Hey ! Just found your channel! Hope your good. I love your boat!

Really? I can go on a sailing trip for days on a boat for only $2k? ??? (I am new to this I know absolutely nothing about sailing-this blows my mind if true).

one day this will be me when i get older (im 17)
