This is the first single handed trip I was on. Also the first night I spent on the hook. Everything went quite well. And I even got to go kayak fishing the next morning. I launched right from the boat! Pretty cool, me thinks ;^)
i loved how you edit the video together with the music " really relaxing", i hope one day i can be like you, owning a boat or a kayak at least.. great job marty... keep it up..
Marty, thought that was dinner ? Man..I must say it is my rainy day off in under paid over worked old dude..land locked in Hott Atlanta and I've binge watched your #1 boat update till now all today. You are Living my Dream..too late for me my friend, so be sure to realize just how good you have it. from a suicide survivor hitting retirement age..life goes by so fast. THANKS MARTY !!
We all knew that if we were patient throughout your Boat life transition that we would be taken on a awesome adventure with you...when you bought your boat I traded my motorcycle for one almost identical it is still sitting in the corner of the farm...can't wait to put my Kayak on the Bow and head out to one of Virginia's many uninhabited islands....a "Zoffinger Inspired Life"..... have a feeling that phrase will become synonymous with us "Zoffingerians" define- a person who enjoys the water, fishing, kayaking and boating in the manner made famous by Marty Zoffinger... tight lines
Marty, I can only imagine the feeling of Freedom you must feel when out on Anchor. It has to be amazing! What an amazing dream come true this must be. Drink it up my friend and enjoy every moment!
I love your channel because it shows you don't need to have all the technology and money in the world to be happy. You can be happy doing what you love in nature. Love your videos!
wish i had a friend like you. we need more people like you in this world. makes me envy what you have something i would like to learn. how to make decisions towards a more free life.
Just finished binge watching quick boat videos. My 1978 Chris Craft is snowed in right now. Did most of the same things you did to your boat. Took a few years on budget. But doing pretty good now. Like you,still lots more to do. You inspired me to keep on going. Thanks
Great videos! You are a natural. You have a story telling voice. Your videos flow well. I think you got a future on the channel. I hope you get a chance to do the loop. Good Luck and smoothe paddling.
Thank you for all your inspiration and knowledge Marty. Today was the first day I went out in the flats of St Pete and went kayak fishing for the first time! I knew exactly what to expect from watching your videos. Looking forward to my next adventure.
Running that generator, you need to get yourself a carbon monoxide detector for your boat. Play it safe. Enjoyed the trip, as always. You've a real creative touch with your angles and editing.
Jim M It really depends on where you keep your genny. There's nothing to worry about when you have it where he keeps his. If your generator is in your engine room then a monoxide detector is a good idea.
I had one already in the cabin to test for the exhaust coming from the two main CO pooters. A tester is a must. Even when on the swim platform, because you're not moving, the fumes can creep around the inside of the boat.
I have a very tough life with my career, everything is hectic all the time and all people (including myself) only focus on making the big buck. To be honest, its great to unwind and watch these videos. Maybe someday Ill have the courage to live like this.... though I do enjoy getting stoned after a long week and watching these.
Zoffinger I have seen almost all of your videos from your very first kayak to now and I must say, you sir are living the dream my friend! Haters gonna hate but you just keep your head up, fish to your hearts content and keep the videos comin my friend!!! P.s I think it's rad you have sponsors! Why not? You've taught and reached so many people! Live long and prosper!
It's great to see your journey! From watching you over 4 years ago before I bought my first kayak to where u r now is just awesome! Keep it up Marty! I have family in Wesley Chapel and some day I hope to see you down there. Opa!
Man you are really in a good place in life! I really envy you and your videos are about the best and most enjoyable thing I have seen on RU-vid! Thanks!
Great video ! Loved watching the dogs run (they will need a fresh water rinse when you get back to land). Your camera work and editing in the 2 angles is looking down right professional. Keep enjoying life and can't wait for more videos !
Federal regulation USCG all gasoline powered vessels with inclosed cabins must have a Carbon Monoxide detector onboard especially if equipped with a generator. Great videos absolutely love them!
man, i thoroughly enjoy the new style of your recent videos. very relaxing and entertaining to watch. Also, congratulations on leaving your house to live on your boat. that must have taken a lot of courage.
Hey Zoffinger, get a 2x6 lumber or plywood and staple carpet to it, and make a Latch of some sort, so you can put on the back of the boat for the dogs to walk up and down from the bassbuster. (A bridge)
Great video as always, but I think this one displays the fruit of your labor. Loved the kayak, I feel that you have been one of the inspirations to Pelican to keep improving. Can't wait for the next adventure and I think the other viewer that recommended a bridge for the dogs is dead on. My wife watched for the first time and loved the interaction of the dogs. Tight lines til the next endeavor.
I have been enjoying your videos for years. You seem to be a gentle and practical man. Don't let the, I guess Trolls is the word, get you down. They appear to be poorly behaved teenagers (Even though they may be grown men)!
Ive been following you for over a year now. Your videos are so peaceful and serine!! It's made me change my lifetstyle completely and I have to say, I love it!!! I'll certainly keep watching!!!
@@jennajobasiaz5559 😂 the fact that you took that of all things from what I said is laughable. I hope your life gets better and you don’t have to spend your time scouring comments to be rude. Best of luck to you. With love 🤙🏽
Your hollow sincerity is what was rude. I suggest you work on that after youve used your new dictionary to check words youre not 100% about. There is no shame in not being sure, the shame is not caring to learn. Im a teacher & darn proud of it & I will not let someone like you rain on my Easter parade.
@@jennajobasiaz5559 if being rude to someone for a typo is your way to correct someone, I’d hate for you to be my teacher. Or anyones teacher for that matter. I’m definitely not raining on your parade. I’m out here enjoying my own. Let’s remember that YOU brought the negativity. I responded. As I said before, with love, I hope your life/situation gets better and you don’t have to spend your time being a Debby downer over typos. Good day! 🤙🏽
Your problem is not being able to stop causing a commotion. That is not something to admire or to pass on to younger people. Time to be born, time to die....time to refrain from speaking. Silence is a virtue. Dont shame a teacher.
Hey Zoffinger. Hope your doing well. I really enjoy your videos. Feels like I am with you right there. Your having to much fun man. If you can keep those videos coming please.
I really enjoy your videos. Especially the one when you caught a big sheepshed and cooked it in your boat. Yum yum. You should really do a catch and cook video once in awhile. Please :)
Watching you in that Bass Raider the last few vids made me buy one....Today I bought a 2.5 Suzuki outboard for it. Really is a great little boat..... thanks for showing yours which lead to making me buy one! Now it's mod...mod...mod.... LOL - Thinking deck section so will have casting deck with storage under. Already added Scotty mounts and extra handles, bow & stern lights and such. It needs a live well now! :) Really looking forward to seeing vids of you modifying yours.
A man can be himself only so long as he is alone; and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free.
Man I really like your videos I used to work on a commercial boat that docked in Ruskin on the little manatee it's a nice area.Keep up the good work your channel is good it's just the kind of stuff I like to watch
You had premonitions of the future in this video with that buff around your neck ;(. Love the channel...jealous of the lifestyle my friend. Can't wait for your next adventure.
