The city of North Miami Beach no longer wants people to anchor here. In this video, I show you how the city of Miami has now gone into overdrive in an attempt to get rid of people anchoring and mooring off their city and shores. IAND... show you the famous Flagler Memorial Island, the best anchorage in Miami.

Appreciate the effort Captain Mike. This donation is strictly earmarked for beer. Kidding😂 I’ve got sailing lessons coming up this summer! If you get a chance, I’m a very amateur filmmaker but I’ve done some stuff on my channel. 48 hour film contests and such. Might give you a laugh or two. Cheers Mike

Problem isn't cruisers. The problem is with squatters living on un seaworthy junk boats, dumping sewage over board and abandoning their boats when they deteriorate too far to live on.

Instances are relatively few and far between and not worth continuing restrictions on people just trying to live. Miami wants to be only mega mansions and high rise condos if it can help it but where does that leave room for normal everyday people?

@tee4222 3 месяца назад

@@manazo16⁠⁠⁠just to throw it out there, had you been there 6 years ago for hurricane Irma and not vacated, your boat would have likely been in a huge pile of vessels stacked up by the park. Nearly all the sailboats that stuck around ended up in that pile. And in that case the eye was about 100 miles away. Just saying, making it through a tropical storm doesn’t say anything as to how it would fair through a hurricane and I hope(and assume) you would vacate the storm if necessary.

Thanks, mate! Hard work patience and planning seems to be paying off right now. I'm going to be doing a full shakedown passage further south in the next week. I'll be diving the hull at 7am. To scrape the hull down and do inspections first thing. There are barnacles the size of quarters all over the hull. There has been so much time sitting in anchorages while doing repairs and EV has grown quite a beard on her hull. It's time to get out on the ocean where she belongs! Thanks for commenting I love answering questions. Good to hear from you Cap.

@Rm6.23 6 месяцев назад

Another great episode in the saga of boat life. Hey Michael, haven’t heard you talk about the oil leak in the dinghy. Were you able to diagnose and fix it?

@sailingEV888 6 месяцев назад

So the oil leak in the Tohatsu 9.8 was 2 things. A loose bolt on the lower oil pan cover and the new fuel pump was leaking a bit. So I put in a new bolt tightened to spec and then just took the new fuel pump off and put it back on again and it's now not leaking. Fingers crossed. With out that dingy and engine it would be rough out here. Next season I plan to hand it in for a full service and gear oil change to a certified outboard place. For now I check the oil everytime I start it and do an inspection for leaks.

@sailingEV888 6 месяцев назад

There are lots of fix it videos coming up. I replaced my entire fridge system. Compressor condenser and evaporator plates. THAT WAS EXTREMELY COMPLICATED! but eventually, after many, many hours of research, I now have a really really cold fridge with a new efficient Danfoss BD35f HD compressor. She hardly pulls 4 amps and freezes 5 lbs of ground beef in 7 hours!! Revolutionary! She is packed to the brim with meat and provisions, and I'm heading south!!

So,are you just gonna keep hopping around Florida anchorages or are you ever going on the cruising life?

@shortwidgets 6 месяцев назад

I live on an older sailboat in Florida and my family and best friends even after I talk about my hardships of cruising an older boat don't really understand what's going on. Those people even though I love them are called landlubbers. Not a bad name just people that don't really get how difficult cruising can be. 😂 Recently I had taken my dinghy to land and a buddy of mine asked me how it was going and I said man I'm having to work on my hydraulic steering again. He said come back to me after you've fixed everything on the boat twice. 🤣 The difference with Captain Michael's sailing channel he is actually letting you know the hardship involved in cruising where I'd say all others don't. I enjoy his videos because he tells the truth of what's going on and also gives insights on different anchorages and provisioning. Take it easy and thought I might give my insight on the insanity called cruising. 😅

@sailingEV888 6 месяцев назад

I thought I'd fix 1. Alternator 2. My head gasket 3. Replace my main battery 4. Retrieve a sunken cell phone. 5. Lose my anchor in a storm 6. Scuba dive and find my anchor 7. Replace my entire refrigerator and compressor and condenser 8. Replace my starter... don't you know? This is cruising life! The real one...

As a Canadian visitor and cruiser, it seems to me like the mayor of this town has his priorities mixed up. Mariners made this place what it is by sailing here in past centuries. It's a shame the city has turned its back on us and is actively trying to wisk us away. This is America! I tear up when I say that! (As a Canadian) it's a special place in America's history that should be welcomed by all! I've sailed most of the east coast of this great country. When you can't go ashore without getting a ticket, it's a shame.

@sailingEV888 6 месяцев назад

Any vessel within 20ft on the sign will be fined and towed even at anchor and not touching the shore. You can anchor all you want in the harbor just be carefully when going ashore. They are actively trying to get rid of people who live on boats. It was just to convenient with all the stores there. Just make sure you have everything you need if your going to anchor here.

I once tried to salvage a derelict that washed up on a certain marina beach in key Biscayne.... The marina gave me all the help in the world was glad to have me take it over (only thing wrong was it broke its morning and went hard aground it was a small light centerboard).... Long story short the city of miami marine patrol officer who ticketed it for environmental transgressions (obm) said tracked it to an outof state dead end who sold it to locals who never registered it...(Long arm amputation) Long story short said it was eviidence in a ("environmental") crime then tried to close his case by pinning it on me.... Florida 's state derelict removal program gouged and unfunded for decades would make everyone wait ten years to remove what was left of that boat.... When i would have helped everyone on my dime (and would have received papers after salvage legal process but for johny law)....dumb... That boat would have been perfect for me at the time.

It's a common theme up and down the Eastern seaboard. I'm not sure if we will be able to live out here like this for much longer? Maybe they will change the rules? There is a reason there are so few of us living out here. Mainly because of the cost involved with being a mariner and cruiser but sooner or later people will realize it's too expensive to live on land I'm not surprised people have dropped there hook here and make there trek onto shore to go to work. The city has realized if they can't get ashore then they just won't be here. The moral of the story is the wealthy ones in this town don't like the thrifty swashbuckling sailors of late so the city spent 50k$ in signs to warn them your not welcome if your going to try and live at anchor..
