Why I always carry a saxophone onboard 

Out of all the sailing you tubers I follow, Sam your the most realistic and down to earth. Keep up the good work, and good luck with zoie

The image of Sam humping the air while playing a sax will be burned into my mind forever

I knew it would happen eventually - adding saxual tension to your videos to boost viewership!

Keep smiling and participating Zoey. It's great seeing you enjoy life with Sam.

The folks on the party barge looked a little uptight.

Best sailor on RU-vid

Thank you for making my day with the epic sax battle - was laughing out loud here 😄 Having owned an early-sixties small mahogny project-of-a-boat I really appreciate your quick fixes done on the fly and the ability and willingness to use recycled parts! Keep up the great attitude and good luck with the Atlantic crossing, if it's still in the cards!

You trolling the other sax player was great man! Good to see more videos! I can't wait to see you sail the Atlantic! Stay safe out there!

Take us home Sam! Another great episode!

Funniest moment in San Holmes videos in a while

They call him the Kenny G of the docks...

Channel gets better every vid. Glad you're getting more comfortable talking to the camera, I appreciate you sharing your journeys with us.

Omg this was a great one Sam! Needed this today, thanks!!

Your trip to Hawaii was the first sailing video I watched, 3-months later I picked up an old Snipe and have been loving trying to sail since. Like others have said you are great at hosting, feels like we’re sitting down having a chat together. Thanks for sharing!

You are just like Ferris Bueller - never even had one lesson! Another great video. Always enjoy watching your travels. Fair winds

Good move diving the engine water inlet. South of Fiji once the engine on my boat was running warm but sea strainer was clean. Small floating pumice bits from an undersea volcano had clogged up thru hull inlet.

I proposed to my wife on that free dock. First date was there, hence the sentimentality for the proposal spot.

More Cow bell!!

Great to upstage the sax snobs

Ok you had me belly laughing at the sax battle. You were getting down! Lol

That was an epic sax battle. New side of you I've never seen before lol.

Everyday you post a video is the best day of my life.

I grew up on that canal. Our house was about 500 yards down from Schaefer’s. Cool to see it in here.

Sam, All of us shouldn't underestimate your commitment for adventure. Dealing with ulcerative colitis is no joke, even land bound. I hope your earlier posted surgery went perfect. You possess a great spirit and obviously, nearly unstoppable will to follow through with your dreams on a small boat in many different directions. Keep smiling, keep us smiling with all your adventures generously shared... and thanks.

That was great, and you guys have a style all your own. Thanks!

Man I can’t imagine all the sweet sights and experiences he’s lived through. How cool would it be. Unfortunately, I’m landlocked in Ohio with a wife and children. Hats off to Samwise for making his dreams a reality!!

I call my wife's tights "a baselayer" too when i have to wear them...

Just love these videos. You're a guy that actually sails his boat and doesn't have a bottomless pit of cash to do it. A real inspiration, thankyou so much

Thanks!

Your definitely my favorite sailing RU-vidr Stay smiling and stay at it

You totally won that sax battle! Well done sir!

As a sax player, that was funny. If I were on that gig I think I'd probably have good humor about the impromptu "duet." A good player would take it in stride and make it a fun little thing on the gig. The ones who get pissed just take themselves too seriously. It's jazz, improvisation is the main feature of the style.

Great video Sam and Zoey. Keep on having fun!

I’m a sax player and do that sorta thing often where I come play at lil venues and stuff and the only way to not look like a total ass was to get goin with Sam. Lol we’d be jammin out if that was me. Great video bro

I love all your videos Sam! I dig your musical stylings...that really made me laugh! I live in Texas but I'm moving to Maine, hopefully I'll see you on the water one day!

Sick sax solo moves bro. Reminds me of Ron Burgundy’s epic flute solo that melted Veronica Corningstone’s heart

Classic sax battle fo sho ....that was so funny 🤣 well played sir well played !!

Hey Sam, I really enjoy your videos, lots of good information there for us wannabe's . I'm 77 years old and still plan on sailing my boat down the ICW soon. Did you make your stack pack sail cover? I have been admiring that and have started converting my old sail cover into a stack pack. Do you have any hints or clues for me in building it. I noticed that you said the lazy jacks should be positioned more forward to avoid being caught by the sail battens while being hoisted. I'm gonna make that change.

hell yea, very awesome. one of my many reasons for buying a boat is so I can finally practice my instruments.

Love seeing all the small improvements and shit you make

I loved the epic sax battle. Be careful cause they didn’t seem to like it too much. Funny.😆 You’re passing all those beautiful bridges, I’d love to know their names. Looks as though you and Zooey worked it out fine. Happy to see that, it does happen eventually, you’re right. 🙂

Another victory by Sam, the quintessential winner of all things !!!!!

That was hilarious! ⛵🎷😂🤣😂🤣😂

I enjoyed this episode, a little bit of day to day stuff and a few larger things, things of all nature. Thanks for sharing!

Well done Sam!!

You need to post a warning at the beginning. I didn’t know there was going to be saxophone violence!!

Looks like you have a jewel of a woman there whom can lighten your sailing duties. Your a very lucky man. I’m jealous but happy for you both.

Great getting to see that side of you. That was epic.

Lol love the sax war

Seems Zoie is happy now. Good luck

GREAT LOVE THAT AREA. HAVE FUN

Sailing into freedom is a killer channel on RU-vid!!!

Love it 🎷🎷🎷

More Sax battles YAY! Cheers Gray Australia

Keep on sailing sam. You are my idol

I was hoping for the "epic sax guy 10 hours" song

Awesome Sam!

Nice

A concert tuba and kettle drums would generate more conversation.

Dooood! Nice riffs.

That's a mean looking sax!

Saxy!

When Sam does sax battle.... Sam don't give af. Get em Sam!!

This is awesome, Chesapeake inn is a great restaurant and i live 20 minutes north wish I could’ve seen you coming through the canal! Hope you got to stop in Lewes DE on you’re way out of Delaware too

On the engine issue: I have a Yanmar 2GM and was getting low water output. It was a combination of the block needing descaler and having to replace the exhaust elbow. These engines clog up after a time at the exhaust elbow, you can get a Yanmar replacement or a guy makes stainless ones if you Google "exhaust elbow . Com"

What a howl! Now that's entertainment!! 😆🎷

More good stuff as always 👍

Cracking me up today Sam, I think Zoey likes goofy Sam too. She looks alot like Hayley Williams from Paramore.

Wooooooh! 420! Woooooooh!

My style of comedy, love the sax performance. I am sure that fuddy duddy on the boat thought you were obnoxious, hahahahaha. Means you achieved your goal :)

ornette sails again!!

Dude, My son Nevan plays sax and I need to know about this micro sax thing you have!

I need a back story man. You seem to be the chillest person I've seen. What did they do to make you blast your sax at them

Sam your videos have made me believe in that I dont need a large sailboat to get into liveaboard sailing; your other boat was some 24 feet yeah? Have any deep hatres for no standing headroom after that? I mean you already went bigger soo... Still, it has me looking at a Pearson 26 thinking man if I can get over the lack of headroom it would be perfect boat

Looking forward to you doing the sax on Baker Street.

Omg that was great "look at the faces" they so we're not amused..... Debbie downers 🤣

Awesome vid

Getting the coldness shoulder from the musicians

Epic Sax Battle™️

Hi sam I am not quite on my boat yet but almost there. I have started posting videos. They will be good eventually. Thank you sam good job

I want one of those saxophones now lol

Omg..an instant classic. A freakin classic Sam and Zoe. Lmao.peter pan pants and Take me home and battle of the bands. Dropping to your knees on the dock. Lmao. How many beers prior?

Yo I was just there we live near tollchester

I just found your channel and these videos are awesome. I can’t wait to be back on my boat. If you’re ever near palm beach let me know I’ll buy drinks lol.

You could give The Sexy Sax Man Sergio Flores a run for his money. Almost seemed like you were channeling him there when you were down on the dock writhing around. If you haven't seen him check him out here on RU-vid doing his rendition of Careless Whisper in various locations. Extremely entertaining.

Sam, now that you've gone all the way up the east coast. Would you ever consider a electric motor, would you stay offshore more often if you had one. I have the same boat with a old engine, and I dont have the money to get a new deisel, I could afford to get electric, I could do a outboard bracket, or I could just fix and maintain the old Volvo that's in there..which I would prefer not to have to mess with.

Zoe is your Yoko Ono.... please stay nice ;)

Supper!......Run!

Wish I could meet you your in my city... yeah our water is pretty gross full stop!

Whoa...whered you get them dunk a roos? 1995?

Who eats snapping turtles? Really?

Awesome

Love your videos. What do you cook on your boat? It would be good to see your galley in action.

Where can I get one of those saxophones? Would love to add one to the arsenal.

Hey @Sam Holmes Sailing. How do you find the Nuvo jsax? Do you play Sax?

Funny !

Lol, I have a xaphoon, I can't play it yet, I bought it for when I get a boat and I'm far from everyone to learn it. If I ever see you on the water we're battling!

I'm curious, when you get in the "dog house" with your lady on a yacht, where do you sleep? Lol. Glad to see everyone in good spirits afterwards. Still loving your videos Sam.

I'm from Maryland they eat anything that swims.

Hope do take same trip soon
