How many does a boat like that cost?

(Sorry for bad english)

She makes my sail raise.

[DinoDoesStuff]

@NowLifeStarts I agree - she hasn't a clue what she is talking about but her good looks and great ass compensate! LOL

[dejavu0011]

great, it just helped me for my first boat sailing!!! Greetings from Holland!!!

[sailor2233]

your sailmaker will die when you abuse his art by tightening the luff until you have a girt (crease). Are these people for real? Very entertaining many thanks

my ropes are red and all sorts of pretty colour flecks and they get in a tangle too

I don't think editing is necessary; This shows how easy and laid back we Sailors are. Enjoy the laughter and small errors are easily corrected.

Editing is for Power-boaters as they never make-mistakes; Their egos don't allow for it. Just playing. I don't care either way.

jeez women can't sail, c'mon!

[kneekolas]

do you have to use the winch the whole time to raise the main?

[thegoodners]

Try editing this, I'm sure you can find videos on how to do that on expert village.

Do you think they should have rehearsed this before they posted it?

She sounds like a complete Elmer.

This video is a waist of time.

Could a boat that size sail across the Atlantic?

say if I wanted to go from Baltimore to the UK?

[morse778]

Atlantic crossings have been made in boats of around 24ft before. Not very comfortable but possible!

[SeeYouNextFall]

Thanks.

Hopefully next year I will be able to buy my first vessel.

I think i will look at one that's only a couple of years old, that way I can get something in the 40 foot range but still save some money.

I wonder what the laws are on having firearms on board when entering another nations port.

[watercolours123]

Probably. Being able to cross Blue Water or an ocean is based on the strength of the boat and hardware, not on the boat's size.

Without knowing the manufacturer of this boat, you can't tell.

Plenty of people have crossed the oceans in 24 ft. boats. It's all about how much comfort and speed you want, combined with the engineering of the boat itself.

[SeeYouNextFall]

Thanks for your reply.

The more I look into this, the more excited I get about the possibilities.

I think your right about the 24' boat. I may go a little bigger.

[OperaBaritoneJoe]

close and on to the next learn to sail vid

[Meishu55]

its a company that does it... expert village, lots of people there

[Mettezz11]

probably a stupid question but if you want to sail north and the wind comes from the nort can you sail to the north then?

[hmmcrunchy]

yes you just have to tack (ie go to the north east almost into wind then after a few minutes turn to northwest and go almost into wind) and you will be working your way north - a bit slower ythan normal but you'll get there

[morse778]

Depending on how far you are sailing you might want to tack less frequently, if there is enough space.

My bro is dead know

[animalover4life]

hmmmm...... i don't think i'll ever ride on a sailboat.... but this is interesting! thanks for posting in on youutbe.... maybe one day my husband will be rich and own a sailboat... idk. but thanks anyhow! i think it's amazing how you have posted 69,000 videos!!! that's AMAZING!!!!

[GHUJSE]

i think if ur husband will ever buy a sail yacht then he will take a sailing lessons, not trying to sail based on a youtube video!!! lol

BTW i'm a laser sailor and that's cool, if u don't have money to buy a yacht (and u really wanna sail) u can buy a laser, they are not very expensive either
