When you stopped to appreciate the color of the water that actually made my hair stand on end. I have never stopped to think about it but when they are that deep of a blue it is actually gorgeous. Thanks for giving me some perspective on that one.
Lifelong sailor here and absolutely love this film of your adventure. Terrific instruction on docking as well as flying🎉😂❤ beautiful scenery, the ladies and absolutely badass yachts.
Yessir!!! I love these videos so so so much! They are just so exciting and fun to watch. I bought my own little 13 foot race boat last week and I’m working on it right now, I’ve got big plans for it and y’all are a big inspiration for me to do this. Thanks so much for making these vids and never stop! Have a great day!
Sweet!!! Another Howe2Live adventure with Mike & Sarah!!! So good to see you!! Such an awesome adventure!! Thanks for taking us along!! Love the camping on the boat decks! Had an opportunity back in April to spend a couple of weeks in Bonita Springs, Fla and Tarpon Springs!! We had gorgeous weather. Only thing we were missing was an MTI!! LOL....Commentating was STELLAR as always!! Video quality off the Chain!! I have been held down with a 3rd degree burn to my left foot for 4 weeks, your video came at an awesome time!! Was getting stir crazy!! God Bless!! Looks like the 4 of you had a blast!! Thanks Again!!
Mike & Sarah , my gf and I LOVE your channel , your humble and modest ways are so refreshing , living on Prince Edward Island we , boat , waterski , fish , snowmobile and camp together living life as a perfect combo of captain and first mate!
You two obviously have worked hard to attain this lifestyle. Thanks for sharing the fruits of your hard work, The speed is crazy, definitely living a great life
Mike, Sarah, Epic Epic...Amazing Video. We all have been waiting for this!!! The abundance of Info in this Video on History & Sites in Our Country in South Florida are Amazing. We've been to Dry Tortugas 4 times & Cosgrove Shoal off the Marquesas & shagged Some really Big Bugs. It Truly is a special Place. As Sarah says it's good to be Home ❤️. Nice to see Mike & Kelce. Tell Mike Not to ride any Mo-Peds while out there...Remember Key West 2023 😂😂😂 We're going to have to watch this Extreme Vid at least 20 more Times.
Another great video. I would say I keep watching for the high end video production and story telling. The truth is I'm in love with your boat and it makes me happy to see her run on that magic blue carpet. Can't wait for the rest of the series. 😁
For twin screw boat handling I always told people it's kind of akin to operating a zero-turn mower once you learn pivot point and the controls. My twin straight inboard 32 was a breeze to handle with no bow thruster. I could dock that thing anywhere it would fit barring conditions. Ie wind, current. Your cinematography and storytelling are second to none Great video!
Dude, I have watched hundreds and hundreds of videos. This is one of THE best I've ever seen! Enjoyable, informative, and beautiful!! The best 20 minutes I've ever spent watching.
Thanks for sharing - the Marquesas Keys in Florida, reminds me of the eye of Quebec, or the Manicouagan Reservoir, a lake in the Province of Quebec... It was also formed by a meteorite (3 miles in diameter).
What a beautiful day to fly/glide on top of the water! The dry tortuga looks like a great apocalyptic hideout… Justice or not the camera view of the water color was amazing. It actually made the other colors in your boats show up even more. I haven’t noticed a color that added to its counterparts as well as this one did.
The BEST channel on RU-vid! Your videos are not only fun, and educational, but inspirational. You 2 are the reason why I'm also going to buy an MTI boat. Sarah, you are likely the best wife on earth as well. Cheers, Martin.
So glad its summer. Hopefully see more frequent howe to live content. Mike, you have to be one of the busiest, most adventurous, fascinating and not to mention talented humans on the planet. And on top of that you have an even better second half. I wish we could see some more content on some projects and a few more adventures. Keep it up and stay safe. You guys def know howe to live. Loved the little nature fact thrown in there. Oh and im all for 30 min videos. I know your on that 20 min format
Brother, my wife and I just went to the Tortuga's in March. It took almost 60 years for us to get there. We are going back next March. It is an amazing place.
@howe2live Thank you so very much for taking us with you on this journey today. I have always wanted to explore west of Key West without taking the tourist boats and planes. Question: How do you know if you need permission to dock your boat in the places that you tie up? I would love for you to share about the "rules of the road" when it comes to where you can go and where you cannot in your boat... All I know are the red and green markers at the entrance to some harbors, but always wondered what the rules are "once you're out there" and then when you arrive at places like the Dry Tortugas. BTW much respect for not marketing/pushing the whole subscribe button thing like so many YTers are doing. It's akin to a pastor telling you to raise your hands in church. It's all about the organic decision of the heart, and for that I much respect you for having that position. Thank you again for the time and effort you put into taking us on your journeys. Marc.
Wow, what a thoughtful comment. Thanks so so much. At the end of the day, there are so many rules in the Dry Tortugas you're bound to probably break one or two and not even know it. We went to the government parks website - www.nps.gov/drto/index.htm - and studied them for like days. In the end we just try to mind all the rules and be respectful. Have a great day and hope to see you out there sometime. M&S.
perfect content to watch from norway, here the waters are most dark and without color, the beaches is stones not sand and just brown seaweed. wish we could have waters like tortuga! and the weather! wish to explore places like this my self, looks so much fun!
I sailed Dry Tortuga 30 years ago and had know idea the Fort Jefferson existed. Amazing place. Very cool place to visit and well worth the effort to get there.
So this is what people with a lot of money do to have some fun?! Not hating… Kudos to you! You worked hard, earned it and now living a dream. Very motivating. Appreciate the content…. Subscribed!
Your videos are so inspiring, I don't mean from a monetary standpoint either as you can make that trip in a 25 year old boat you bought on Facebook marketplace, but you're truly living. The memories you'll have in your 80s are the stuff dreams are made of. I'll keep exploring through your videos until I'm able to make a few of these trips myself. Thank you!
Wow, what an amazing video of your trip. Appreciate the education you share with driving, docking and navigating- great to learn from the experts. Well Done! Love the Tortugas.
Miss living in the Keys, Summerland, Sugarloaf, Big Pine lived in all those places. No Name Pub afterwork was my place to be :D. Enjoy living the life.
I love to watch traveling content and learning about the places each content maker goes to, Sailing SV Delos, Sailing Doodle, Curl Caz, Van boys and i can keep going and going. They are international travelers and tell a story but out of all of them, you guys are in my top 2 RU-vid channels that I just love to watch. Sure the crazy fast speed boat is fun to watch skip across the water and your new catamaran is as slick and sexy as a boat can be. (Not to mention that fact that Sara is a bomb shell) but that's not what sold me on your channel. I love someone that can tell me a story filled with facts and entertainment. Yall get my attention and keep it every time. Keep up the amazing content. P.S. Don't be afraid to make the vids longer, most of us will still watch it.
Another excellent video with fantastic story telling! LOVE the view from the camera mounted on the engine cross bar! WOW.... looking forward to the next episode
We have always enjoyed your adventures in the MTI! Amazing video, great soundtrack and still only 20 minutes long. How about some details on how you mounted your Insta360 on the tie bar, the angle was amazing. Keep the MTI adventures going! Living Our Dash... Here and Now
Love this Channel! Been watching for 2 years!! From Pennsylvania with a lot different Boat, iv got a 78 Avenger flat bottom with a 427 BBC. Be safe Guys!!
wow awesome show luv your smooth sounding voice man. key-deer🦌 and how do they taste😂your boat-s are beautiful. man that water is so blue wow, i live in 'Bay of Islands, North Island New Zealand' I've never seen that colour of a beautiful blue berry ice cream. so nice you were able to capture it for us. thank you both for great show guys🥰
I get so excited when I get a H2L notification because I know it's going to be fun and educational. My only wish is I would get those notifications more often ❤
As a teenager I was on vacation with my parents in Yellowstone when my dad stopped to get some cokes out of the cooler in the trunk. I went to stretch my legs about 100ft from the car in a wide open field with nothing around but tall grass. I have no idea where this deer came from, must have been laying in the grass nearby, but he's all of a sudden at my side. I pet him, and gave him some cookies which I'm sure he enjoyed. A wild deer, not afraid of humans? I've had quite a few experiences in those parks, fed the black bears from our car windows on two occasions. 😁Had a bird land on me at Crater Lake, also fed the squirrels at Crater Lake. As an adult, I took my wife to Crater Lake, and told her the story of the bird, and the squirrel, and I'll be danged if the same thing happened to her. A bird flew down, and land on her shoulder just as it had me, and then at the visitor's center the squirrels were still there mooching off the tourists! Love your travels, brings back memories of my own. 👍😎✌🗽
Great video! Mike, I find wearing my hat forward keeps it from blowing off on my boat. If I turn it around, the bill lifts right up and off goes the hat. Do you find that too? Now, my boat tops out at a senior citizen 60 mph, so it only happens at slower speed! lol. And of course I’ve got a bow rider, so it’s not exactly built for high speed
Oh man!! I thought I was only about 10 minutes in and it was over 😭My retention span can last hours for you guys! I wanted to eat that water too! 😂 Another…Fantastic…Video!! Can’t wait for the rest of the series!!
