Man I don’t miss that timing of the tides, and unpredictable storms. When we came down the Rio Dulce, we didn’t have the map (with depths) and that was a bit stressful. Thank God for locals and their knowledge.
Might want to consider a good store of ginger bread for your snacking during passage. More nutritious and the ginger helps settle motion sickness. And the burn of good ginger in the mouth does wonders for keeping you alert at night.
Nice seeing 👀 ya'll sailing ⛵️ again. Hope to see ya'lls sails on the Horizon someday from our lanai. So until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii! Cheers 🍻
@@Spoondrifters Most probably don't bother with them because they're smallish but with small fish like sardines and anchovies you don't fillet them, just gut them and cook them whole. I guess it depends on how open minded you are too unfamiliar foods. In my wife's culture all fish are cooked with the bones in, head on etc, the fish eyes get fought over and you use chopsticks to pick the fish meat away from the bones, the meat around the head of the fish is considered the best bit and this is what most westerners throw away after filleting. I've only seen one YT channel cook the flying fish and she just fried them with an egg and a tomato for a nice simple breakfast. I guess try and see if you like them, at least you know there's less risk of ciguatera with such a small fish 👍
There are electronic anti-seasickness wrist bands- run around $85-$100 each and rechargeable battery lasts around 10hrs. Somehow a tiny electric jolt to wrist nerve interferes with the confused inner ear to brain signal that causes seasickness.
Hey guys. This is Cher. I'm using my hubby s phone that why his name Lester shows up! Just wondering, how "old" are these videos? I'm seeing Abigail in these and RU-vid says it was just posted two hours ago. I hope this question isn't being disrespectful bc that's not what I intended it to be.... ...I'm just really confused.❤
@@Spoondrifters . Thank you for responding. We, Lester and I, ❤️love you and your family so much and have enjoyed your sailing journey. Hope you are doing as well as you can and hope that you can gradually get back into enjoying the sailing life. Love to you all.
@@Spoondrifters ok thank you. And how did yo about your solar arch plus cost. Did you create diy your self, did your boat come with it or did you pay to have it built and installed. I just got 660 watts 2 panels, renogy 3000w inverter, need to lifrpo4 batteries and solar arch. Thanks for sharing info!
@@ProspectingMonkey we bought our arch from Fish On Sports in Florida, they ship anywhere and are great to work with. We have the Sir Admiral Uni model.
