I’m sorry to hear the sadness in your voice! A dream that didn’t go as planned and changed your priorities! All the best for you and your little family, hope to see you sailing again!

@thelastpirate Месяц назад

My friend, you're mistaken. I have fulfilled my dream to a potential I never dreamed of. I never thought I would sail 80,000 miles, meet the love of my life, and have a beautiful daughter. Any sadness you hear is natural nostalgia. I cried when I lost my catamaran because it wasn't my decision. I'm not crying now.

The essence of James from the jump was living his own life which is why so many were drawn to it, even in the midst of chaos. Taking a new path with the fam is beautiful to see. Hoping the way keeps getting richer and deeper with this choice.

@Antipodean33 Месяц назад

I remember back when you bought this diamond in the ruff and done a ton of work on her in the heat and humidity (you're a genuine doer champ), then just kept on spending more money and elbow grease bringing her to this lovely standard. Mate she's a 50 foot Oyster, it really is a top quality vessel, I'm looking for a boat and i swear I'd jump on this in a heartbeat if I had the funds. Hey people I got around $200,000 do you wanna crowd fund me and we'll go cruising together? Jokes aside that is one quality boat, you should tell people about the hull lay up and it's thickness, it's a fekn' battleship. Good luck mate whatever is next

@Tim8mit Месяц назад

wow Ana's English has improved immensely, Luna is growing fast, such a cute baby, James, hopefully the boat sells quickly. If you choose Medellin maybe I will see you there ( two years and counting down till my Colombian wife and I move from Canada to Medellin) cheers

Bummer but also a new chapter! We all have to make those decisions. Only sad that I don't have the money to buy her myself, because I'd do it in a hot minute if I could, knowing how well you've taken care of her. Best of luck to you and the family, and can't wait to see what's next for you all!

Not going to lie. When I saw this video I was scared to death. You were giving up sailing... I remember years ago you and I spoke and I told you I wanted to do this and you said do it... That is stuck with me all this time and my wife and I have been working very hard saving money to get a catamaran seeing everything you've seen and all the places you've been has made me realize just how important seeing the world can be. Can't wait to see more of your videos and I wish your entire family the best in life. You and thank you for taking the time to show us everything you did

Life goes on. My wife and I supported ourselves with the crewed charter trade. We specialized in Scuba and sailing in the E Caribbean and then in the San Blas. We were the first licensed crewed charter in the San Blas. Licensed in Panama. We were very busy. This was 25 yrs ago. No RU-vid. We were virtually the only way to get to Scuba in the San Blas. There was nothing else there. We were totally self contained of course. There was nothing in the San Blas for facilities. For water we would take the dingy up the jungle rivers and Jerry jug it. Fun. We got Gunas to help. Back then they were called Kuna Indians not Guna. We were slammed with back to back charters. We only had to do it for 3 months a yr. But yeah, it gets old. We had a 15 yr old KP 44 cutter in excellent shape. I am a 100 ton master and Scuba instructor. We sold that boat in Ventura CA. Life goes on. Now you have a WONDERFUL family. Wow, so cool. You guys will do well anywhere. As long as you have a channel, I’ll watch.

@jorgemarin6221 Месяц назад

James, you did a great job on the boat. I've followed you for the last couple of years and have enjoyed watching you live the life I can only dream about. But priorities change and you've made tons of memories and will continue to do so. Going smaller is also fun. I hope you recover all the work you put into the boat. As a Venezuelan, I would recommend you stay close to the caribean where you can continue to enjoy the sea life. Best of luck!

@michelbedos9371 Месяц назад

We are sorry to hear you and your wife have decided to part ways with your Oyster 485. Over the past few years, we followed you as you poured your heart into bringing back, not only to life but to the beauty she was initially. Whoever the lucky new owner may be, he gets a rare jewel. We wish you and your family smooth sailing, with no events to speak of. Both of you are wise to look at the long picture of your lives. Please keep up your website so we can share your new adventures! Thank you.

Everywhere in that video, I can see the results of your enthusiasm and abilities.

I saw his boat for sale on the internet before he posted this ... And I was thinking his channel must be behind.. But I was totally shocked when I saw the boat. .Because I recognized it one hundred percent. But then I thought ..maybe he's just flipping it ,,because he put a lot of work into it, so he should come out ahead. I'll. I will admit his channel. Was in my top three of favorites , more sailing and less drama of bullshit

James hi from Alberta, Canada. I saw Zingaro day one it's not the same boat, she looks freaking AMAZING !!!!,. You should be proud you invested a lot of time, sweat and money to get it where it is today👌. Huge decision to sell her but life changes you've got a beautiful family now. There is no reason Zingaro shouldn't sell for top dollar. Very well done man.

@msgoogle4565 Месяц назад

It’s not easy, although you made it look smooth. I lived on a sailboat with my parents for about 5 years, we traveled from North America to Central America. There is always some danger involved, repairs and maintenance eat up your time and $$$$$$$. You’ve done well , time to turn the page.

Calling in from Nz. You know what I'm going to miss James.? One of many. Is your intro. "Hullo my beautiful people." I'll say it again. "Hullo my beautiful people." Thank you mate for 2-3 years of fantastic viewing. One of many episodes I enjoyed, was you visiting Pitcairn Island, in the Cat,and in particular spending time on Henderson Island cleaning up other people's crap (plastic), off the main beach, none of which is generated from the main island. It can't get there from the main island, because the South Pacific Gyre current flows anticlockwise. So I thank you and your crew, on behalf of the Pitcairn Islanders for taking time out for the cleanup. That is one of many episodes i enjoyed. Here's wishing you and your family, the very best for your future..Btw I'll keep my beer fridge full. (Just in case,!!) Stay safe. Much Aroha., (Love...in Maori.) To all three of you.

Wow James....your before / after photo's are incredible. I can definitely sense the antipathy you have in deciding to make a lifestyle change choice with your boat. However as a father of 5...priorities shift when new lives come into the fold. Wishing you the best of luck and I hope you keep tubing and sharing. Your videos are always informative and full of wisdom.

@DarkSevariant Месяц назад

She's a beautiful boat...sadly, she's older than 20 years, which will make it nearly impossible to get financed. Someone may be able to get a signature loan, but someone able to get a signature loan for $325,000.00 probably isn't going to be shopping for a 1994 Oyster. The interest alone, would be at least $30,000 a year over a newer boat loan. Also, a signature loan isn't allowed to be that long of a repayment period, compared to an actual boat loan. You're going to be dealing in a very, very small niched market. Someone that want a 50ft Oyster, has $325k lying around...I just don't see it. Oyster isn't Ferrari... To anyone out there...if you're going to invest in a boat to flip, make sure the boat, once completed, will be able to be financed. Good luck.

Can't wait to share in your future endeavors.

@usabayermicha6178 Месяц назад

keep sailing until the baby is at least ready for school. Sailing is a lifestyle different from Land Life. Enjoy while you are young, and the baby does not need schooling. On the cost side: downsizing is good to keep sailing. Yes, you have a beautiful vessel, watched you restoring it from the start, but, yes, it's not a maintenance wise cheap boat.

@captbuzzli4163 Месяц назад

Very nice work, bro! You really put your heart into her and it has been apparent from your videos and travels. I'm in the same frame of mind as yourself though, I'm looking at boats that are in the 38'-40' range. Easier to maintain and not too big where I can't single-hand her. I'm sure she will go to someone who will appreciate all the work you've done, and I hope your future with the family is filled with Love and success. Portugal! Fair Winds & Following Seas!
