First Offshore NIGHT Passage on our Leopard 45 Sailing Catamaran Puerto Rico to St Augustine | Ep 13 

Holy Cow Girl, you should be dang proud of yourself. You Rock!

Kwell are a great travel pill for seasickness, anyway great to see you underway and on your adventures, need to do a little work on the night vision filming as it was very course and hazy vision, otherwise good episode - Take care, be safe and God Bless America 🇺🇸

You are learning it will all seem normal soon

Great start to your YouTubing journey- well done. Would recommend you try to post once a week on same day/time each week - you’ll get better follower engagement and numbers.

Nice trip. I bought my Leopard 47 in Grenada, and my girlfriend and I sailed it up the Caribbean on the west side of all the islands. Checking into any of them was not an option as it was during covid. We got to St. Johns, then went to St. Thomas, Megans Bay, and then on to Puerto Rico. We anchored in that harbor in Culebrita which is amazing. Then on to Port Salinas where we left the boat for a month and went home. Then we came back with my son and sailed the north of Dominican Republic with stops in Puerto Bahia and Ocean world. Then on to the Bahamas through Mathewtown, Acklins Island, Crooked Island, Long Island and then all through the Exumas which was awesome. Saw the usual suspects there like the grotto, Staniel, Normans, etc. then on to the Berries for a night in Chub and on to Bimini and then Fort Lauderdale. The nice thing about making your way through the Bahamas is that there are calm anchorages everywhere, great things to see, and you can pick your weather.

Such an exciting journey. Love the true life, no holds barred view. You are getting me prepped for my boat buying adventure!! Keep it up!

It was have been such a relief to get on your way and leave some of the stress behind you!

Just checking…. did you try a bit of reverse on the prop first to see if that takes the weed off? Apparently it sometimes does. Thanks for sharing your journey and beautiful boat.

We found you guys today and love your channel! 💙⚓️

When you pick up seaweed on a prop, try putting the engine in reverse for a minute or two. Usually clears the prop.

You guys are doing great hang in there ! New to your channel ! Can’t wait to follow your journey !

My experience with moonless nights is that you need to turn of all lights, dim as much as you can even minimise the red lights and try to sit with lights in your back… then your eyes can adopt much better to the darkness and you’ll actually see, unless large squalls rains snow etc makes even that impossible. But otherwise that works best. Your instruments look very bright, likely they have a night /dark mode. ( that includes wind depth speed and navigation) Life at sea, once your hooked.. it’s forever.

Bananas on a boat is bad luck lol, enjoying the videos so far congrats on the boat, we were on a similar Cat in the BVI a few years ago, great place to be huge inside and didnt sail to badly either down wind, up not so much

We discovered you a few days back and have now seen all of your videos. We are RV owners and they can be challenging at times but boats are a whole different thing and have so many more challenges to tackle, however seeing your progress to date we figure you will be fine. We think that Shannon is amazing and are looking forward to your future adventures. One thing is that it seemed to me that it would be very easy for someone to fall off the back of your boat, but maybe that's just the perspective we see through the lens?

scuba fin under front of microwave is how we fix that on charters

Caught fish but cooked pork chops nothing better than fresh fish fresher the better.

Bananas need the SUN to ripen. It's called photosynthesis. Look it up, city slicks.
