(UPDATE: SAM MADE IT SAFE AND SOUND TO HILO!)
Hello Friends!
This is a special episode where I interview my friend and marina neighbor Sam Holmes who, by the time this was uploaded, departed for Hawaii in his Ranger 23 named “Swedish Fish”
Our regular viewers will remember him from the episode where Camille and myself sailed to Santa Barbara Island ( https://youtu.be/bKYkneYs0z0 )
Since then Sam has outfitted his tiny 23ft sailboat for passage making including adding a wind vane steering system, solar power and more.
The day before Sam left I sat down with him onboard SV Swedish Fish and interviewed him about the trip and his preparations. Sam is a true maniac and I have full faith that he will make it to Hawaii with many stories to tell about the passage.
You can watch his progress at: https://share.garmin.com/SamHolmes
He told me off camera he will be filming the passage and after its all done giving the footage to a professional editor he knows to edit it into a long video or episodes. His youtube channel is there:

Fair Winds to Sam and SV Swedish Fish!!!!!
until next time,

My name is James and I have recently untied the lines for good and set off to start a slow circumnavigation of this big beautiful world. After 4+ years of refitting my 1965 Alberg 30 she is finally ready for some serious sailing. In 2021 I completed my first solo ocean crossing from Los Angeles to Hawaii traveling 2300 nm and will be heading south in the summer of 2022, bound for the South Pacific.
