Sailing South Into Vero Beach, Walk To Atlantic Ocean | Ep 44 #svaguaazul #sailboat #boat

0:00
okay guys me and my babe we stopped up
0:03
here in Pine Island such a beautiful
0:06
place no wakes from the
0:09
icw and uh pretty shallow it's a very
0:13
narrow area so all we got is see where
0:16
that bow is back there well a little bit
0:19
uh about 50t over pretty shallow same
0:23
with our bat but uh while I'm here
0:27
decided I was going to patch up my Bim
0:30
me a little bit and uh what does my wife
0:33
think of this patch job I did I hope we
0:36
can get that
0:38
fixed that looks
0:40
[Laughter]
0:42
awful there's not enough material to be
0:44
doing it no there
0:46
isn't cuz if you see here I used uh uh
0:50
basically this is just binding twine
0:53
I've
0:54
got uh safety pins holding here safety
0:58
pins down here
1:00
but uh it keeps out the sun I'm sure it
1:04
won't keep out any water but you know
1:07
it's a start you see the boom right
1:09
there that's pretty
1:14
cool there goes our friends they're off
1:16
heading to
1:21
Vero she passed us we
1:25
waved okay so we're leaving and we're
1:29
heading to Vero it's about hour that way
1:32
that's South but uh it's
1:35
cold so it's the flannels yeah it's
1:38
supposed to warm up but we uh weathered
1:40
the 3 days of co cold down here in uh
1:43
what's this Pine Island Pine Island so
1:47
great very calm protection from the icw
1:50
wakes protection from the wind was a
1:53
nice place to be but now we're going to
1:55
get down further south we have uh a few
2:00
friends down there we're going to see
2:01
them and uh get some fuel and water and
2:04
we got to pump out our uh blackwat
2:08
tanks so yeah so she's going to pull up
2:12
the anchor I already got the snu off so
2:14
all she has to do is push the little
2:15
button
2:16
right and then wait for us to spin
2:18
around and then pull it up again spin
2:23
around and there she's
2:28
off I'm going to get behind the
2:31
wheel and do do the easy job got the
2:34
autopilot working that's a good thing I
2:36
screwed that up myself yes but uh I
2:38
fixed it don't put magnets near your uh
2:42
GPS
2:44
dongle it's amazing how deep it is so
2:47
close to the island here and how shallow
2:51
it is over
2:53
there so we're just inching our way
2:55
through let's see right right
2:58
there and of course so I wided out all
3:01
the safe areas for this
3:03
boat there's our
3:05
Anchorage if you're heading uh North
3:08
it's not very hidden from the south you
3:10
can't see
3:11
it here we go Danielle's uh on watch
3:16
making sure I navigate
3:20
correctly I all
3:25
[Music]
3:26
these it's pretty easy you just you look
3:29
at the markers and you point towards
3:32
them and stay closer to the red ones
3:35
than the green
3:37
ones these Pelicans a lot less up
3:42
here but there's plenty of speeding
3:45
boats coming through here rocking our
3:51
world great news guys autopilot is
3:54
working
3:56
perfectly so
4:01
I can uh now rely on it to hit things in
4:04
the uh icw and not me which is a good
4:15
thing okay guys we got another Bridge
4:18
coming up Bridges always make my babe
4:23
nervous she's trying to figure out which
4:26
area do we go under
4:29
light you see it now I see the light
4:37
yeah
4:41
mhm now this looks like a narrow opening
4:44
on this
4:47
bridge it's almost a one at a
4:51
time here comes a boat behind
4:54
us and see if he's going to want to
4:56
squeeze in while we're going through
5:04
oh nice and
5:22
Shady so we just passed the marina back
5:26
over there that's where we're going to
5:27
probably get fuel tomorrow this
5:30
week and uh water but we're heading off
5:34
to our Anchorage somewhere over here
5:38
just got to find
5:40
it and a lot of boats out
5:46
here there's my
5:49
baby it's like this is a mess out
5:54
here a lot of people out here
5:58
though okay guys so we made it to our
6:00
Anchorage and uh it's uh pretty narrow
6:05
in here so we've only got
6:07
like about 70t of chain out is it 6t
6:11
over there it
6:14
is yeah it touches on 6t but we we wrap
6:18
around it squeezes really close to the
6:20
land so we have a a good swing radius
6:25
here and uh hopefully we don't knock in
6:31
anything this is one of the tightest
6:34
aneres we've ever been at well the last
6:36
one was pretty tight it's about the same
6:37
as the last one kind of yeah but this is
6:41
on both sides so it's the the illusion
6:44
that it's tighter even though the entire
6:48
Port of our last Anchorage was really
6:51
shallow over there for a long ways so we
6:55
got some friends we're going to meet up
6:56
here first we're going to get this boat
6:58
tied up and
7:00
uh wash the poop
7:02
deck yeah I don't know what she did up
7:05
there but she exploded
7:08
landmines it's much quieter we didn't
7:10
back out we didn't back on it oh I got
7:12
back on it so you make sure we're snug
7:16
get get snug y let's get this started
7:18
we'll back down
7:22
that so I'll show you what we do
7:25
here so we're going to apply some
7:28
throttle
7:29
[Music]
7:32
and see if we
7:38
move are we
7:41
moving it looks like we
7:44
are okay now now we're set yep we
7:48
weren't before I'm watching the
7:51
depth the
7:54
chain nope we're hanging
8:00
yeah I felt it yeah it was dragging
8:04
yeah this is all sand here no
8:10
mud that would and there that we would
8:14
have been dragging into that boat
8:15
there's what it looks like on the chart
8:16
so we got a little swing
8:22
room okay we're in buau there's our boat
8:26
right there we got to go check out the
8:28
town there's my
8:30

8:36
I was going to warm up something but our
8:38

8:42

8:45
uh yeah I'm just going to see what this
8:48
town has to
8:50
offer wow you could see the bottom
8:55
here that is
8:58
amazing well our props not hidden I
9:01
that's why we didn't hook at first it
9:04
that's sure we were on glass I think we
9:07
were on uh yeah could have
9:11
been tree okay guys so that's the Viro
9:16
uh Beach Marina right there and we are
9:18
on land and uh the land is moving it's
9:22
still moving
9:23
so I I feel like I I'm I'm I actually
9:27

9:29
land than I do on a boat I'm getting
9:32
better baby's out experiencing land

12:38
a boat but uh they tough and uh but
12:42
we're just going to enjoy the night and
12:45
we're going to stay here through
12:46
Thanksgiving this is uh Vero so it's a
12:50
nice little Anchorage has a a dock we
12:53
can pull up and get fuel water pump outs
12:56
all that good stuff so good place to
12:59
hang around for a bit and you can do
13:01
Mings here you can do the marina or
13:04
we're on the hook we're way out in the
13:06
middle of nowhere beaches down the road
13:09
yes so walk well we can go that way and
13:13
it's a shorter walk from the
13:16
dingy but uh yeah
13:20
so that's our
13:22
story okay so I got to go fix the
13:25
rollers I got to rotate the rubber
13:27
roller around to the bottom move Mo the
13:29
nylon roller to the top because my
13:31
wife's having trouble putting anchor
13:33
down and she cut her little finger the
13:35
other day and I don't want her to do
13:36
that but I don't know if you can see it
13:39
yeah the Christmas trees is on and it's
13:41
uh not even Thanksgiving yet it's
13:44
towards the end of November but not
13:46
Thanksgiving yet so let's go move these
13:49
rollers around also may we started
13:52
working on my beard on my boat yesterday
13:54
but still got some more beard to work on
13:56
there too so as you can see I got my
13:59
little scrubby Sticky Thing I got my uh
14:02
beard scraper thing and I got my uh
14:05
Crescent Wren tied in
14:08
uh tied to the dinghy so I don't lose it
14:11
but look at this
14:12
tide yeah I cleaned that yesterday but
14:15
yeah this tide is kicking
14:17
it yeah so maybe I scrub it a little bit
14:20
more I still got some green down there
14:22
though the oh yeah this is this is where
14:25
you want to do projects is that here
14:28
nothing like uh sitting out
14:31
here take in the view so this is what
14:35
I'm going to do I'm going to REM remove
14:36
that nylon roller up to the top because
14:39
that rubber
14:41
roller isn't rolling well enough I'm not
14:44
tied on here but seems to be rolling
14:48
okay I guess the nylons roll better and
14:52
uh I don't want this to bind up when my
14:55
wife is trying to PR it
14:56
down and as you can also see
14:59
that sucker really scarring up
15:03
my uh Furler up here
15:07
so I got to get that got to get that
15:10
smoother so taking this off with the
15:12
wind blowing and uh your
15:15
direction you're going to get some dirt
15:17
in your eyes it's kind of irritating but
15:21
one down one to go when you're taking
15:24
these
15:24
off I got this one almost loose you'll
15:27
see there's a square hole in other side
15:29
so you only need to to loosen one side
15:32
makes it
15:34
easier okay that's all done in the
15:37
future I'm not going to go back with
15:39
these rubber uh these rubber ones cuz
15:44
they seem to be a little bit too big and
15:47
all that but I'm going to find me some
15:49
more nylons and put on here but yeah
15:53
this should roll that anchor off right
15:57
nice I just to untie my rope and put my
16:01
chain back in place which my chain I
16:03
just tucked back over here and there we
16:05
go job complete and the reason I'm doing
16:08
this in the dingy versus uh hanging over
16:10
the edge like I've done
16:12
before is if I drop anything it's going
16:14
to fall in the dingy which if it drops
16:17
down there that's
16:21
problematic now when scraping our our
16:24
beard off our hole You see I've already
16:27
done up here
16:30
and uh going
16:34
down we'll get down here and we should
16:38
end up somewhere where there's still a
16:41
beard let's
16:44
see going
16:46
down I think I'm almost made all the way
16:49
down this side of the boat yesterday
16:51
before our friends came and hosted us to
16:54
do something else
16:59
[Music]
17:00
here we
17:03
come let's
17:08
see
17:10
and whoa got to grab on there we still
17:14
have beard
17:15
here so that's where I just take that
17:19
and lightly scrape it
17:21
off okay that looks a lot better now I'm
17:25
going to take my little sticky thing I'm
17:27
going to go under there
17:29
cuz most of this stuff grows in the
17:31
light and this is basically just
17:34
algae I did pick off a couple
17:39
Barnacles and uh not excited about that
17:44
but they just picked off with my fingers
17:47
so they're not really
17:50
attached okay so with this pole this
17:54
sucker's 10 ft
17:57
long I can get all the way to the kill
18:00
and uh the uh biocop TF from SE Seahawk
18:06
working really good cuz all I'm getting
18:08
is a little bit of uh you look at the
18:13
sponge that's what it looks like so I'm
18:17
getting uh of course a lot of grass and
18:20
a few couple Barnacles where the Sun
18:23
hits but I'm not getting it down
18:26
below and I still have to scrub that off
18:29
that's from the hurricane where we are
18:32
rubbing our fenders really
18:34
hard but you see I have my fenders out
18:38
cuz we're going to have to go get some
18:39
water and fuel here
18:40
soon cuz we're almost out of
18:43
that now I got to work on the other side
18:46
hopefully you can see that
18:47
hair but yeah it's it's furry over
18:52
here so I got the hole clean I got them
18:55
rollers moved now my bab's cooking me
18:58
egg
19:02
sandwich I don't know about you but we
19:04
kind of like our eggs a little yokey not
19:07
our
19:11
sandwich and uh she takes care of all
19:15
the pink jobs dishes are
19:18
done and lunch is being
19:22
made you're my a tri
19:26
wife look at that look at them eggs oh
19:29
