Just came across your channel. We have a later version of the Ingrid 38 - I like to call it “the tanker” in a good sense. Good luck!

We just made it from California to Japan in our Ingrid! Will hopefully get some episodes up soon. She is a safe boat.

Japan is a great place and I boat here regularly as a local, however it is not at all foreign cruiser friendly.

I had the pleasure to meet Julia, I hope I spelled it correctly, and Tyler in Alamitos Bay California. They are a lovely young couple and I wish you fair winds and following seas on your voyage to Hawaii and on to Japan. I am subscribed and will be looking forward to upcoming episodes.

@SailingRamona6 ай бұрын
Thanks for patiently waiting! Sorry for the delay (as always). We had a view all done, but then we had a sudden big change in our life / plans. Can’t go into details on here right now, but we have on our Patreon page through our weekly real-time updates. Either way, we are still sailing (hopefully) soon and in fact, we are attempting to sail our boat directly from California to Japan this year, in one month from now! So a lot going on for us atm. It might be a while before our next proper video, but we promise we have some good stuff in the future. Thanks again for sticking with us!

The information and entertainment seems to flow remarkably well in all your work. Just fantastic work from both of you. Keep up this work.

It was rather surreal seeing a yacht from Monterey being worked on, especially the Oriane. I grew up and still live in the Monterey area, and have seen that boat for years just hanging out. Good to know she's found what seems like a good home. I found your channel today, as I was just having a conversation about the potential of sailing in Japan eventually, once my family takes to the waters.
