Why didn’t you try balancing the boat and rigging up some steering with the
sheets. A book by John Letcher is great on sheet-steering systems and
self-made wind vanes. He also designed a great 25-foot, 5500 lb ocean
mini-cruiser. I built one but never made it to sea. This video makes my
heart ache for a missed dream.
We’re new to the #sailing community and are so thankful for your
contribution to the wealth of nautical knowledge here on #youtube . Its
#awesome to be learning while away from the water, here in the office.
Excited for more!! #newportbeach #yachtsfortots #yachts4tots #501c3
I’ve watched this video five times over the last year. Love the music, the
sound of your voice, and the way you worked your way through the problem.
It all adds up to a great description of the pace of a voyage. Thank you.
A trip I took many times in the late 70’s early 80’s. I worked for a group
that delivered sailboats. They had a side of the business that would
deliver boats to Hawaii from North America. The owners would fly over and
meet their craft and sail around the islands. Most often we would then
return it to anywhere from Juneau to San Diego.
Great video Patrick … thanks for sharing. So, how long did you stay in
Hawaii … or are you still there?
Fair winds and following seas …. best always, S.
As soon as my 34′ is finished Hilo has been my planed destination for
years. Did you anchor in the harbor or was there a harbor to tie up to ?
Haven’t seen one driving around the area. Otherwise than that you made a
great video. Thanks
Was the boat insured for the adventure? What company if so? What
conditions on the policy?

I appreciate your camera work. All shots were focused and steady. Many You
tube videos are unpleasant to watch due to excessive camera movement.
Nice boat and video. Looking into which windpilot has what to offer.

I was looking forward to what you first seen of hawaii and your greeting!
I know nothing about sailing. So how do you keep from hitting things at
night? Or when you’re sleeping?
Nice video Pat. Thanks for taking the time to make it and share it with me.
WOW, what an adventure for sure!
Thanks for sharing. This video actually explained a lot of questions I had
about sailing solo and the equipment you need to safely do so.
