Leaving The Dock in My 30 ft Sailboat!
September 08, 2023 by Captain Christa | Language: EN Play Time: 00:10:21 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
My journey finally begins! After a long day of getting the boat ready to go I am finally able to shove off and begin my trip! It was super windy though! 14-15 knots of wind so backing out was not as smooth as I wanted it to be. The gust of wind right as I was backing out caused my boat to turn to the opposite way I was driving so instead of doing a power struggle with the wind I work with the wind. Once I saw the gust hit the boat I switches my plan and turned the wheel the other way. Turning with the wind allowed me to straighten out the boat and then reverse out of the finger. Not my best time leaving the dock but we did okay and didn’t hit any other boats so thats a success! Before I start on my journey I also needed to do the dirty job, have you ever seen the movie RV? thats what I think of every time I pump out. hilarious! but its a dirty job and its got to be done. Its adorable to look back at the footage and watch how much maui follows me around the boat. I love that pup so much. After pumping out I head out of the harbor and its quite choppy and bouncy as you can see by the footage it looks like my boat is on a trampoline at times. I tried something new so you guys would be able to hear the sound of the boat hitting the waves and didn’t put music over those clips, let me know if you like those clips! I think they add to the experience and it feels like you’re actually on the boat! getting around the bend I have a long sunset sail into Newport. In the next video we will be finishing the sunset sail and heading into newport and anchoring. I am really glad I got my dinghy together, on the bridle tow lines, and was able to go, so far it works great!
