We set off on our first sail in the Gulf of Mexico! After a day trip to Pensacola through the GICW (Gulf Intracoastal Waterway) with Kirk’s pops, we visit Destin via car to inquire about Destin pass. We were keen on stopping with the boat because it seemed like a fun town to explore, but the pass is notoriously shallow with shifting sands. After heavy deliberation over our final destination, we depart Pensacola on a 90-mile overnight sail.
Hope you enjoy!
Lauren & Kirk

As always, great video! Tapping tip: 1/4 to 1/2 turn in, then 1/2 to 3/4 turn out to remove metal burrs and prevent jamming and lastly, ALWAYS use oil. Last thing you want is a broken tap in your hole, it is not fun at all, I've been their unfortunately.

I had a whole pod of those bottle nose follow me from Savanna GA down to West Palm over 4 days! Really cool to watch them teach their pups hunt! Thank you so much for bringing that memory to mind! Stay safe you two! Get some safety harnesses and lines to tie yourself to the boat. That saved my ass more than once! My rum to sailing balance was WAY off!

@SailingSoulianis 4 года назад

How cool! What a great experience. We do have jacklines and tethers... we just don't always put them out. 🤷‍♂️

Thank you so much for showing what it's really like to sail and work on your home! I love seeing dolphins like everyone, but I appreciate that you show us so much of the blood, sweat, and tears that goes into this life! I loved seeing you sail blue waters! (I'm living vicariously for the next few years... lol) There's nothing that makes you smile like sailing!! 😍😍

@jukeboxhero1649 5 лет назад

I used to visit that little Destin Harbour in the 1970s as a boy. It was fun and almost nothing was there. There was a little 2 story place called the Sandpiper or Sand dollar where we stayed.

@SailingSoulianis 5 лет назад

Mm that's interesting to imagine how it used to be...

@charhassenboehler8882 5 лет назад

Looking pretty happy gang...

@Gunnie1961 5 лет назад

Soulianis is looking mighty fine. Kirk, great that you are able to spend some time with your dad on the boat making some special memories for all of you! Happy & safe sailing.

@SailingSoulianis 5 лет назад

Jimmy Buffet is the soundtrack to many of my best summer childhood memories. It was a blast to be cruising through his neck of the woods with my dad on board sharing a beer and jammin away. -K

I caught up today from episode 1 to date! Love your channel. That idea of a mock up using PVC for the Bimini sounds like a good one Captain Kirk. Great smile Lauren. Greetings from Port Elizabeth, South Africa.

@alphasxsignal 5 лет назад

Glad you are in the Gulf and lots of rain now but its warm.Lots of places to stop, maybe Tampa and go under the Skyway tall bridge. There is nice place to anchor in the Bradenton River behind the DeSoto National Memorial Park.

@cyndivanherpe9280 5 лет назад

Just found your channel today, and binge watched, while driving back from dropping our son off at camp (6 hours home). We own a Catalina 36 and love seeing all the upgrades, challenges, joy and experience you've shared with your videos. It's especially nice to see the things you've figured out yourselves, the costs and the pros and cons you've run into. MAN THAT IS A LOT OF LOCKS! Can't wait to see more! We dream of sailing further than the Chesapeake Bay one day...(lots to explore where we are, and lots of trouble to get into this close to shore too!) A few more years and then maybe we can consider some time living aboard and sailing the Caribbean!

I have been in Destin Harbor many times. We normally spend Thanksgiving there.

@yeolechief623 5 лет назад

When you venture to south Florida, you’ll find many more vendors for the type of tubular arch you desire. A lot of competition in Ft Lauderdale area for quality work so prices should be better as well. Many mobile welders/fabricators. Best of luck.

@chrisphinney6430 5 лет назад

i was just visiting that area of florida in January. enjoy seeing it from your sailboat

Beautiful video, love Destin, Florida, use to sail our catamaran up there from Key West, the tides are very challenging there, especially when you are 65 feet long and draft 5 feet........

Dad's got a squashy, best outdoor hats ever! Greetings from Australia!

@SailingSoulianis 5 лет назад

He loves that hat. He bought the original in Australia about 15 years ago. It flew off his head while boating 7-8 years ago and he was super bummed because he thought he’d have to fly back to Australia and get another. Luckily the internet made the world a smaller place and we were able to figure out what it was called and get him a new one online!

@thomasjohns8184 5 лет назад

Too bad you would have luved hanging out in Destin for awhile. The channel cut isn't bad at all, just hug the channel markers and your golden. Lots of fun and good eateries. World class beaches.

That’s one sweet sail at sunset !

@larryv825 5 лет назад

SSSOOOOOOO good to see you guys have some trouble free / relaxing sailing. Crazy to think ya'll had jackets on in the gulf when it has been so hot here.

@SailingSoulianis 5 лет назад

This was shot in the springtime ;)

@MrCaptbear42 5 лет назад

good call, I have sailed that route many times and pass Destin every time. As you know by know Panama City is a great place to stop. Umm... Was a great place.. unfortunately it was destroyed by the hurricane so no marinas to stay in. Enjoying the Videos.

@janmo1236 5 лет назад

nice vid gain - wonderfull colours.

@lazydays7470 4 года назад

When you put stainless steel screws into aluminum you need to coat them with Lanacote to prevent the screws from freezing into the holes.

I too came across your channel by accident, and couldn't stop watching. I binged-watched this weekend and I'm caught up. Great videos! Looking forward to more adventures!

I found your series purely by chance and decided to give it a whirl as my very first RU-vid show. I couldn’t be more thrilled with your adventures! Love the variety of peaceful moments, technical info, fun, life firsts and drone footage.
