Ep 137 James From Sailing Zingaro Visits Us In SXM

James has been friends with us now for several years, really since he bought his Oyster 485, a sister boat to Talisman. James is a character and has so much energy it makes you feel lazy. Through his podcasts, live streams, and YouTube Sailing Zingaro episodes, he has created an impressive following.
James is typical in some way of the YouTube influencers that have manage to make a living out of the cruising lifestyle. And to do that, you need loads of charisma and creativity. James is a machine when it comes to reaching out and keeping multiple chainsaws in the air as he juggles his life and business interests.
James had just arrived with his girlfriend Anna when this episode starts, and despite a rough passage from Aruba, they made it in fine style. But drama stalks James, and they were immediately turned away by the Dutch Sint Maarten officials over paperwork issues. But we gave them the secret sauce for clearing into the French side (St Martin is an island shared by the Dutch on the east half, and the French on the west). Soon, they were laying at anchor in Marigot Bay, under the now silent guns of Fort Louis.
James had managed to destroy his new furler, and even damage the headstay during his epic trip to the island, and Marigot was not in a kind mood while we were there. The winds were blowing 20 knots and the anchorage was rolley. I had offered to go up the mast, but when I saw what I suspected to see I knew that even if I did go up, James would need to go as well, so decided to play cameraman instead. Wendy did the winch operator honors, as it’s a job she does well when I’m in the bosun’s chair.
Anyway, it’s a good episode, with a nice shopping tour of the marine support operations in Cole Bay, Sint Maarten.
