Rebecca Childress has new crew arrive and after some chores we take off sailing to Carriacou on a windy stormy day. The boat is well prepared for the rambunctious sail across these familiar waters, and the crew does great. the captain is feeling a bit of anxiety, but at least we are sailing and make it to the next island without incident. Sailing the final leg to complete my circumnavigation....it has begun!
Thank you Suzanne Bokat Stone for providing some of the footage for this video and being a good movie star in it! . You were awesome fun crew...enjoyed having you aboard. and my boat is much cleaner for it!
Thank you Rick for coming along for the ride!

I wish you would get rid of all the music. We can't hear what you are saying. I would prefer to hear what you are saying and not the music. If you must use it then please turn the volume way down to a dull roar please. Otherwise from what I saw and the few words I heard it was a great video. Thanks.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Thanks. The words were not so important in this video…I just wanted it to be fun ;) I was saying nothing important at all ;) But I appreciate the feedback ;)

@jimmyjohnstone5878 Год назад

I agree. Even if the chat was of no consequence, music played over the top is irritating.

@stevejohnston1103 Год назад

Sorry to be negative but it's so nice to be able to hear what is being said when the music stops - you are so often drowned out by it.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Basically what I’m saying in some parts is just so not important in this particular sailing video. But alas I need a reminder every so often that just because I like the music, many people don’t. So thanks for the reminder

@stevejohnston1103 Год назад

It's not so much not liking the music, (I do)- it's ok when the music is very quiet in the background or there is no speech. However, when it is the same volume or even louder than the speech it makes it difficult to hear

Just wanted to say your strength is an inspiration! I came across your channel by accident watching some other sailing content and it caught my eye because it was in Cape Town, unfortunately at a very hard time. I'm sitting 4 months today after losing my wife; when we met we I was living about my boat and sailed the Indian Ocean together before settling and having our family in South Africa. We relocated to Northern Ireland in Dec 21 and we're planning on buying a small yacht for coastal cruising but after losing her I just want to get back to living onboard again but my mind has been all over the place until I was listening to your words and struggles. Just wanted to thank you for documenting and posting your thoughts through very challenging times, it's helped clear my own mind on the way forward and just to get on with it. Thank you

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Ah so glad it has been helpful. I’m so sorry for your loss. It slowly gets better but I can tell you that it just affects you in ways you can’t imagine…different for everyone. I can’t quite let it go but I’m hoping once I complete this circumnavigation and figure out what’s next it can keep getting better maybe faster. You just have to do it. You just have to keep moving.

@rantmaker6427 Год назад

So … you did your research … made your plans … and are now executing them. I became aware that I had narrowly defined your existence to the three of you: Rebecca, Patrick & Brick House after so many years and so many videos. The sovereign land of BH. But things have changed. There are new faces in the realm. I’m going to have to adjust! Good video. I remember you asking us back in Cape Town land, “tell me what you want to see going forward … let know. More DIY? Something else?” I asked for “life aboard Brick House”. You delivered in this video.

@larsnordberg5328 Год назад

Hi. You are discovering the different sides of beeing the captain. It is a challenge and you have to clear and precise and take decisions. This is not a democracy, it is dictatorship and you are the dictator. Written rules and information is very good, and those who do not like that and that you are the captain have no business on your boat. A sailingboat is a very small place to live in for a long time if you are crossing oceans and it is very important that one person is in charge. The others may give advice and you can have discussions but in the end it is your decision that counts. This is nessesary for safety and because it is your boat. I'm following you on your sailing, I have two sailboats on my own but I only sail along the swedish eastcoast and on my homelake Storsjön in Jämtland Sweden. God luck to you and take care.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Yep trying to find the perfect fit, mood and way to be captain ;)

@rogerprout5574 Год назад

Rebecca, that genoa sheet will not last rubbing/chafing on the cap shroud like that. You are at max speed at 7 kts so you could furl it a few more turns and sheet it between the cap shroud and the inner stay. But that setting should be marked on the foot of the genny when you are in calmish waters. It would be very difficult to change the sheeting angle in those conditions. 30kts apparent you should furl the genny completely and stay with just the staysail. That sheeting angle looks ok. You look anxious in that benign breeze so reduce sail, roll up the genny

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Yea I’ve since noticed that happens with the spreader if that’s what you mean. If you actually mean the sheet on the shroud… that’s what the plastic PVC pipes over the shrouds are for… something Patrick put on years ago for that reason. But that’s a good idea to mark it how far to let out the genny in what will be upwind conditions to avoid the sun fella touching the spreader tip because that WILL become a problem sooner rather than later. I’d it’s the sheets you are concerned about… 30 years with those sheets possibly even original to the boat ;) I have spares in the bow… but so far the sheets just keep truckin ;) Tha ks for the feedback…I do appreciate it. And you bet yaAt 30 I really should have rolled in the genny but it was pretty short lived… 25 wa the average and was half reefed on the headsail anyways.

@geoffreyjenkins4086 Год назад

The noise is familiar, it's a mooring ball bouncing against the hull due to the lack of wind and/or light wind and a bit of current. We've found that if you pull the mooring pennant up tight in these light conditions so it's pulling straight up on the mooring ball you can often stop the bouncing.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

So true… it’s what we found too. But sometimes there is just no way to stop it completely ;)

I couldn't share a boat without having a cabin to myself. No sleeping in the saloon or share a cabin. I like the company of sailing with others but need a space I can get away from them. I would keep all my stuff in a couple of sealed bags in my cabin. None of my junk would be anywhere lying around the boat. I don't drink so when the tipsy crew start silly games that's when I take to my cabin.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

Yep I give all my crew their own cabins with doors. Of course not possible on every boat. And I got the bunk in the main saloon with no privacy. It’s drives me crazy but I’m more used to living in a small space than they are so I just deal with it.

By the way, your channel is the only one , that has the subtext and the thumbnail text translated to, what some kind machine thinks to be german. Could or did you choose that to be done? That is always so ridiculous, and sometimes harder to understand, than english. Especially in the thumbnails because beeing just a title, lacking any syntax or content. The results get ridicoulous. This time in the subtext, for instance, you got your sex changed to male, and in the thumbnail the name of your boat got changed from a name to a subject, beeing a real sailing house made of bricks. I think all this can only be the result of some kind of automatic "translation". It really is not. But we understand you anyway and love the channel, but why always the thing of becoming a captain?? You already were, since years, just feeling Patrick would be the only person of knowledge. Get self confident by doing, the learning goes on anyway.

@RVLifeNOW Год назад

You may be somewhat right about always having been the captain. It’s what I should have called myself from the beginning of carrying in without Patrick. But yes confidence is a big one. I know I can do it but being challenged or in disagreement about stuff is difficult for me. Trying to keep everyone happy is hard for me. And that makes me cranky and not wanting to be the captain. Yea I can’t really surrender that totally to someone else either.

Rebecca was always competent to sail Brick House and be the captain. What she lacked was the self confidence to carry on after Patrick had passed - God rest his soul. I am glad to see that Rebecca has now progressed to the "lets get it done level of confidence." Although you may not have liked Michael I believe that Patrick in the afterlife helped bring the two of them together to help Rebecca navigate the confused seas of grief and steer her safely in the direction to complete the circumnavigation they both started together. No ill will too you sir but my honest heart felt observations.

It was just that the feel of the videos changed, and I lost interest. The last couple of videos felt like you again, I like that and look forward more.

I'm surprised you found any crew at all.

@flasher702 Год назад

eh, these people that leave negative replies where you can't even tell what their point is: ignore them. Either too stupid or too lazy to make a coherent point.

Sometimes your expectations aren't met. Life is brutal. LOL
