Welcome onboard Andiamo! This sailboat is made primarily out of concrete. But with all the rust inside the metal structure expanding and cracking the hull. This sailboat will eventually sink! But until then, "Captain Blake Sparrow" is going to get every penny out of this still capable sailboat & home. Living his best life in the US Virgin Islands!
The purpose of this video is not to glamorize the sailing life, nor is it to put down this boat for being a piece of junk. No, the purpose of this video is to show you that you don't need $1,000,000.00 to live a life of adventure on the high seas. That buying a boat you can afford now, is better than waiting till your old and grey and being on a nicer boat. That living with some discomforts, but being out in paradise making great memories will leave you with a life of no regrets! But fulfillment in your decision to cast off the dock lines and sail away from safe harbor.
THIS, is the way to do it!

Hello & welcome! I'm Daniel aka "Adventureman Dan." I've been living on the edge, from one adventure to another for the past nine years. Stating in Central California with my first GoPro, through SoCal, Baja, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Alaska and throughout the whole USA. But for the past five years on my sailboat "Adventureborne" I'm open to unlimited possibilities of where I can go, and what I can do!

CAPT Sparrow gotta get a channel going. That storm story was epic. Reminded me exactly of my first ever solo sail.

Hey I asked for more budget sailor tours and here it is! Keep it up!! There are far more people in thier 20-40s who can afford a 30k and below sailboat over these 200k+ folks

@adamgriffith768 14 дней назад

Really is true this is what we want to see! 30k and below!

@Bhartham888 11 дней назад

Yup more budget ones

@RamblinRoverMatt 14 дней назад

hell yeah brother! thanks for posting...this is roughly my budget for my first. Maybe 20 total after refitting for coastal cruising. Im looking for under 30ft though since im coming from 3 years fulltime vanlife itll be an upgrade hahah Anyway keep these tours/interviews coming - some of my favorites ! Much appreciated!

Props to this guy for following his dream but goodness, that is a ROUGH boat. Prioritizing a TV and video games over the actual base level maintenance that this boat requires is truly a fascinating mismanagement of priorities. I'm trying my best to look past the rotting concrete, rust, and other critical areas that needs to be addressed. But you know what? Good for him for living his best life - he seems to not take life too seriously and we should all take a moment to be less serious on the daily. But maintaining this life means putting a modicum of effort to make sure he can continue having a view of those islands instead of having the same view Dan has when he's spear fishing because that is one sinking boat. Cool dude though. Fun interview. Lots of space inside the boat. Really fascinating challenge he put forward for himself. Hopefully he can get that upgraded boat he wants so he can continue his adventure above the waterline. Love his passion for wanting to learn more and explore. Fair winds, Captain Sparrow and Adventureman Dan.

youre assuming a lot there buddy, maybe calm down and just relax. enjoy the video instead of over analyzing things lol

@Pxbsd 14 дней назад

@Dawgmeatt not sure I'm tracking - I watched the full video, and around every bend, Dan emphasized the condition of this boat falling to pieces - it's clearly a boat that has been a victim of gross negligence. I personally think its amazing what this guy has accomplished and how well he's doing for himself, all things considered, but this boat needs a lot of structural and aesthetic TLC. Literally wishing him well and hoping he can upgrade to what he wants, considering he's working for it. But let's not pretend like this boat isn't in incredibly rough shape and needs some important, prioritized fixes if he intends to keep living this lifestyle.

@jameslackey8683 10 дней назад

As he said in the beginning of the video, the previous owner had neglected it, and once this type of boat starts to get in the condition, there's NOTHING you can do to stop it. Keep some epoxy paint on it and try to slow it down, but it's slowly rotting. So he's just getting out of it what he can, while he can, then I'm sure he will have a plan for the next move.

St. Thomas changed a lot about me when I solo visited this beautiful place in 2021. Made a few great friends there! You guys are doing what I’m wanting to do in the next few years. Coming from owning a successful hardwood floor refinishing business for 17yrs here in Michigan I’m ready to learn the sails and live the next 20years on doing away from this race. Not saying I haven’t lived bc I definitely have but sailing has been a big thought over the past few years. Keep it real guys 🤙

@garygerard4290 14 дней назад

I think it's only fair either one of these guys comes and lives at my place on the mainland for a few weeks and I'll take over their boat. They can deal with my crazy neighbors with their dogs barking all day and crapping on my law all night, not to mention their ever playing rap music and non stop fighting. In exchange I promise to keep their batteries charged up and scrape the bottom of the boat. let me know / thanks

@ericlangenfeld7523 12 дней назад

Outstanding, Blake. You are an epic adventurer. And please don't let these maintenance nancys get you down about your boat. Having owned several...elderly?...boats and automobiles there comes a time when literally no amount of work will make them great but they still have life left in them. I think you're doing it exactly right. When the time comes a new boat will become available, and until then the one you have is better than the one you don't.

@Adventureman_Dan 12 дней назад

Well said! You have the exact right idea about this adventure that he's on.

@Liberta_BR 14 дней назад

I love your boat tours,man. They deserve their own playlist (Maybe you already have one and I could not find it) .I dream of having a boat and those prices you have. Here in Brazil, everything costs 2 or 3 times ..You should consider coming down here. Look for Paraty and Ilha Grande (Rio de Janeiro State). Cheers

@jaysmoke3132 14 дней назад

Great video Dan, thank you so much for doing it. Well done Blake. I respect people who just say F-it and go for it. A lot of people know how how talk and can't do. You my man just do. Hats off to Captain Sparrow. Much respect.

@lazzj4995 9 дней назад

OMG this was so fun to watch. I dont care if people are afloat on a 10million dollar gin palace or rowing a bathtub from a sailing perspective but I know which provides a captivating story. Loved that Blake is keeping it real with the TV and gaming. Hope to see your paths cross often. Not sure what Blakes boat is called but I guess we all know it as ‘the sinking boat’ now. That would make for a fun radio call to ports. Lupon, Lupon, this is ‘The sinking boat” over

@russellmckinley9916 8 дней назад

That was incredible. What a cool dude and cool story. I love it!

@LeonardoCossio 12 дней назад

i think the pieces of wood/panels are meant to be a kind of a nest protection for sailors to hold them while they are asleep...maybe it is missing the piece/mechanism which holds them up.

@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 7 дней назад

They are called lee boards or cloths.. but they do the job youve described .. basicly keeps you from rolling off your bunk.

@aquious953 12 дней назад

Be careful where you take it. 3.5 knots? Must have some bottom growth. $7,000 is $6,500 too much.

@JanieCoffey 12 дней назад

Is there no fear of that “rust explosion” happening at night while he is sleeping and sink quickly? (Too quickly)

@davecopp9356 14 дней назад

The boat is growing. First it was 39 foot, a few minutes later it already grew to 40 feet. If this keeps up, he will soon own a cruise ship.

Your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorite ones to watch. Your content feels very authentic, which is refreshing to some of other travel content that’s out there. That feels more for the views than authentic. Curious… What apps do you use for Weather or navigation or chart plotting?

that was fun to watch definetly follono=ing mr sparrow. would be good to see you guys hanging out doing some blogging.

@necrokittie2291 11 дней назад

I'm pretty sure those boards are supposed to be partly raised up but still in their holding tracks and a rope holding them up attached to that center hand hole and then onto the shelving behind or the trim above. not sure which makes the most sense.... they are there to stop a sleeping person from rolling off the couch while the boats rolling in the waves.

@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 7 дней назад

Its a great pity that they didnt build concrete boats with Basalt mesh and rebar it would save tons of wt be stronger and could be built thinner as the basalt doesnt react with salt water and doesnt corrode...also being made from Rock it expands and contracts at the same rate as the concrete. ..its almost immune to any temperature extremes. There are other channels out there with concrete hulls and one Huge one in the UK thats being completely restored and reffited. From memory its a 65 or 75ft ketch rigged yatch. The same mass that keeps the boat cool in the heat can also keep it warm.. an insulated boat is an energy efficient boat. 🧙🏻‍♂️😉🇬🇧 Kleening the hull off would add at least a couple of knots of speed .. The other thing is that boat is going to be stable at anchor and under way in a swell quiet.... when pounding and will mush all but the largest waves ...its a steam roller.

@jamesflake6601 13 дней назад

Do you need a permit to put grab a bite to eat from the ocean where your at? I'm talking about foraging for food with a fishing rod

@captainblakesparrow 13 дней назад

You have to have a commercial fishing license if you want to do that but personal Fishing does not require a license in the US Virgin Islands

@captainblakesparrow 13 дней назад

And if you enter a country like Bahamas, the entry includes your fishing license

@jamesflake6601 11 дней назад

Nice.. You wouldn't belive me but there's absolutely no info on this topic on line. Thanks. Effin love the boat you call home. It's truleuly epic. Some day I'll just sell everything and sail away. Some day. I been to Nasaw but illegally via sahdy employer. That's a great story for another time. 🍻
