Today in Cape May did not go according to plan. Instead of dinghying and exploring the historic areas we were putting out fires! Not literally though, it was more of helping boats that are dragging and tangled anchors. Hope you enjoy this day showing how anchoring can be a bit of a challenge but all works out in the end!
Thanks for watching!
Cheers from the Loop,
Jennifer and Elliot

ABOUT US
Hi! We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive headfirst into boat life, and kick-off America’s Great Loop.
The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.”, just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem.
Thank you for following us along our journey!

Jen, you don't have to explain staying on the Pivot. Under any adverse conditions a person should be on watch for safety reasons. That's common sense. Eliot did so well, helping 4 other boats in one morning. Just shows how good of boaters you both are. Jen, don't get so stressed out. You are going to be a wreck before loop is completed. You and Eliot have learned so much since you started and it shows. Be alert but relax a little, the challenges you face is something most all boaters experience on a long adventure. Aloha.

Elliot, you did great! It has always surprised me how few people want to get involved in an emergency. There had to be 20 others in the anchorage yet you were the only one actively assisting. Way to go. Semper Fi!!! Jen, you did exactly what you should have done. Handle your own situation. Then and only then should you assist other boaters. I'm proud of both of you.

You both provided a good example of CRM in action. Our first duty is to ensure the safety of our own boat and crew even if it means not rendering assistance to another boat in distress.

One night i heard a mayday from a 45 ft meridian in Bear Creek MD my home port that had run a ground at near top speed after passing on the wrong side of the marker. On board were two very injured women and a man. I was the first one there and carried the three over to a marina where an ambulance was waiting. The coast guard and a tow boat arrived but neither could help because they drew to much water. I ended up taking all the passengers plus the captain to the coast guard boat then went back and helped the tow boat connect lines to the grounded boat so he could pull it off. It took many hours to get that done.

Boy that was a lot of drama for one morning. It’s a darn good thing you two were there,especially Eliot. Do some people just not think. It’s almost like hey I’m here drop the anchor let’s just cause some mayhem. Anyway you are good people lucky for them.
@SchoandJo
@SchoandJo 2 года назад
Hehe we are all coming from different levels of experience and so much of it is the day before too. If you don't have a checklist its so easy to lax on some anchoring steps that are crucial especially in "rough" weather like this. Thanks for watching Kevin!
@timkenyon6088
@timkenyon6088 2 года назад
This is one of the situations we avoided by staying in marinas during windy times. It is a cost but can potentially avoid these kinds of situations. Handling your own boat is one thing. Being subject to the lack of skill and preparedness (would say idiocy but trying to be nice) of other boaters can be avoided...sometimes.

Everyone seems to want to anchor in busy Cape May harbor. A mile or so up the NJICW is a well protected anchorage in Sunset Lake. It can pay to get off the beaten path sometimes!
@SchoandJo
@SchoandJo 2 года назад
Good idea! The only thing about Sunset Lake, if I recall correctly, is that it was behind a timed bridge. Most people want to have a bit more freedom of leaving when they can I presume. However that would be better than dragging anchor though!
