Today I am taking you guys sailing on my 31ft sailboat all the way to an Island! We got rained on, stopped for fuel, and had great wind for about half the trip! It is my first time sailing this boat to Catalina Island! I build a rocker stopper along the way which will help the boat be less rocky at night! My pups will also be joining me for this sail as well as a camera man. I will be showing you guys the complete sail over, which we averaged 4 knots while we were under sail power. We also grabbed some ballon’s on the way and we saw a huge oil tanker! Once we get to Catalina we chat with the harbor patrol and grab a mooring for the evening! I’ll also be showing you guys how I get the mooring on the boat and how it holds the boat in place! It was a beautiful day after 9 hours of sailing we finally made it to Catalina! Thankfully everything went as planned for this trip! Thanks so much for watching, I hope to see you join in on the fun by hitting that subscribe button! In the next video I’m going to be anchoring my boat in Catalina, catching some fish, and snorkeling! It's going to be awesome! If you made it to the bottom of the description, please leave me a comment and let me know because I will respond to you!

I’m impressed, not only did you get a home, but one that you don’t mind coming home to, and you get to take it where the weather lets you go. How awesome is that! Very well put together I enjoyed watching. Good looking too ⛵️. I want to do this as well but I think Florida and the Bahamas. Tacoma is to dreary among other things. Good luck I’ll keep watching! Thank you for taking us along.

My first time seeing your channel and I'm duly impressed with your seamanship knowledge and prowess working your boat solo.. It's a lot to do and you have the muscles and brains to get er done... and you seem to truly love sailing as I have all my life here off the New England coaat on schooners and sloops.. My dad in the Navy .. Can't wait to see how the Rock Stoppers worked. All my years sailing here and there ...never heard of Rock Stoppers.. Cool.idea !!

You got that mooring ball so easy! I had a catalina 25 and bringing it in to dinner key mooring field in miami was the stuff of nightmares. It was as packed as a walmart parking lot and missing the ball had you running to the stern and pulling off magic tricks so as not to hit another boat. I finally just started staying at the stern and grabbing the ball from there then walking it forward.

Just wanted to say my first sailboat from San Diego bought it in Vancouver 34 ft no radar nor no radar reflector single engine Yanmar when coming around West Van close to Bowen Island at around midnight the wind died down very dark and I went to the bow a freighter from Squamish was coming directly in front close call. AIS, Radar is important never without them now. Also crossed the wake from a container ship that was steaming out from Vancouver saw it on my radar from 5 mile setting. The wake though it was one third of a mile when created by the ship when I crossed it in my 34 ft wooden fishing boat created such a shake hit it at a 45 degree angle only about 2-3 ft high the power in that small wave was tremendous in my heavy wooden. Take care.

I was on a friends fishing boat in Key Largo Fl and watching the container ships go by and they are HUGE. He says like you that they have the right of way and never try to cross in front but also to cut them a wide berth when passing behind as they sometimes are dragging cables from buoys they hit that could snag you and drag you with them.

How do you know when the sail is at its proper tension on the wind & I noticed some sort of small medical device attached to your body! What is that medical device? Your channel is fun to watch since I live close & walk the harbor every day!

@CaptainChrista Год назад
There are sail ties and tells and based on the direction of the wind you place your sails at a different point of sail! The harbor is a beautiful walk!

Christa, I am new to sailing and just bought a 27 ft Hunter 1981. Not a bad boat but not as nice as yours. I also am in DP Harbor. I noticed that you have a backup electric motor, an EPROPULSION 1.0. How does that work out for you? enough power to motor into the harbor with the usual late afternoon prevailing westerlies? Also, how long can you run the motor at whatever speed works for you? I am considering adding one to my sailboat for emergency use. 5 miles max before my LIFEPO4 100 amp/hour battery dies? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Al

Captain Cuteness, how large is the gas tank and how long it last filled up?
@CaptainChrista
@CaptainChrista Год назад
It lasts a long time! I’d have to check the specific amount but I think it’s 25 gallons!

Just curious - was the Hunter a purpose buy (meaning that you wanted a Hunter) or just a boat that matched the needs/budget at that time?
@CaptainChrista
@CaptainChrista Год назад
A bit of both! Its the best boat I could afford at the time for my needs! Definitely will upgrade when I can but for now I have no complaints.

@@CaptainChrista I’ll check out your first videos as it looks like you go over the buying process there. Looks like a good boat (there’s no such thing as the perfect boat). A boat that meets your needs and budget is a good boat! Stay safe.

Good to see you out there sailing. One suggestion, I strongly recommend that you get the boat ready to sail before you leave the dock. Boom cover removed, halyards connected, and anchor ready to deploy. Engines die, things happen, and luck favors the prepared. Great video, thanks.

Perhaps you should talk during your journey, instead of scripted exposures during your trip? That would be real and longer and probably contribute to your RU-vid audience. Not a hater, much love ❤️ Ps. Thank you for cleaning up the ocean. Every little helps 👸
