Hello fine friends,

Hope you're staying cool and safe in these wild times. I stopped by Angel City Brewery in the Arts District here in Los Angeles and picked up the Most Amazing goody bag, specially put together by my friend Leticia. In the video I go over their women brewed Strawberry Blonde, and review the Plum Saison that Angel City brewed in collaboration with the Pink Boots Society. Such a fun beer! The history of the Saison is really interesting.
Also Leticia gave me a 6er of Avocado Kolsch (AND I DRANK IT ALL TO MESELF;) ha! but I say a little bit about it in the video, and highly recommend trying it if you can get your paws on some. I say its sort of like a brown ale in the video but, it is MUCH lighter, just to be clear!

Thank you so much for watching, please leave comments and questions that you might have. Thank you again Angel City Brewery!

Love,
Camille

Welcome to YARNS; Conversations with Cruisers, A Sailing Podcast

James Frederick sits down with sailors he meets around the world to record their seas stories in remote anchorages and far-flung ports. All the interviews are recorded as a video podcast that is released on the Sailing Triteia YouTube Channel. They are also being made available as an audio podcast for those who prefer this format of content.

On this episode I interview Lin Pardey and David Haigh onboard David’s 40-foot steel Van de Stadt sloop, Sahula. If you know anything about sailing, Lin needs no introduction. Her books have inspired millions of people to get out and see the world onboard small boats. She was one of the main reasons I thought this sailing dream, on a small boat with a limited budget. I had only just met David on the day of this interview but had done a bit a research on him ahead of time and read about his 11 year circumnavigation that was a combination of solo and short handed sailing taking him to unique places in the world, off the normal circumnavigation routes.

Episode 03 : Ventura to Santa Barbara - with Sailor Commentary at the end of the episode.

This video documents the recent sailing trip I crewed on onboard the sailing vessel The Intrepid. We motor-sailed from San Diego, California to the San Francisco Bay area. 10 days, 111 hours at sea and 470 nautical miles. The uphill battle against wind and currents, sailing north on the west coast is no pleasure cruise.

The crew were as follows:
Tim Brill (Owner)
Cody Brill (Captain and son of Tim)
Nigel Howat (English Sailor/45+ years sailing experience)
& James Frederick (thats me).

I have a blog where you can read all the journal entries about each leg of the passage: http://allwaysbutstill.tumblr.com

I will also be uploaded each leg of the trip as "episodes" that will feature commentary at the end reading some of the journal entries and talking about what happened or what we saw on that particular part of the trip.

Please subscribe if you like the video, there will be more !


About the Crew Members:
Tim Brill was a professional mountaineering guide for many years and has climbed all over the world. A few years ago Tim bought The Intrepid, which became famous in 2008 as it sailed around the world by the youngest person to solo sail around the world (Zac Sunderland).

Currently he is owns an Aerobatic Flight School in Reno, Nevada where he teaches people to fly and to do stunts. http://www.aerobaticcompany.com

The "Post Passage Post" series is only available to my Patrons and is recorded and released a day or two after I finish an ocean passage. I have decided to start slowly releasing some them to the public as ARCHIVE footage if they are more than a year old. This was the first PPP video I made and was published on September 30th, 2022.

----------------------
Ahoy Patrons,

I had an idea to start doing these Passage Debriefings (except no one was questioning me so not really a debriefing).

I hope you guys enjoy these video.
Love
James

Episode 369 : Season 12 : Sailing Australia

Hello Friends,
On this episode we awake in the fog at Twilight Inlet surrounded by birdsong, once the morning sun cleared the way we headed out to explore more of Cowan Creek. After getting fuel and water at Cottage Point, we enjoyed a slow sail amidst the chaos of the weekend boat (and plane) traffic and spend the day bay hoping to see as much as we could.

PROJECT VIDEO: Cutting Holes in Boats

Hello Friends,

This is the first part in a series of videos showing you how I replaced our original forward hatch with a Lewmar Ocean Series 65 hatch.

Our original forward hatch was very bad at keeping the sea out and the frame had rotted to the point of no longer supporting the hinges so it was time to deal with this problem. I decided to replace the hatch with a serious ocean going hatch that I new I could trust when we are doing ocean passages and large seas tear across the deck. There was really only one choice for me, a Lewmar Ocean Series 65.

I went with the trapezoid shape to keep the same look as the original and I picked mine up on eBay for 95 dollars. The lens has crazing but me and Camille were not concerned with this and it can easily be replaced later on.

On this episode I mark the position of the new base and cut out the hole for the new slightly larger hatch.

| Season 3 | Episode 49

Welcome to Season 3 of my channel!

On this episode we explore the island of Björkör and are shown around the original farm house and property by the groundskeeper Kaj. It was an amazing time capsule or sorts with most of the belongings left as they were when the owner passed away in 1962.

This season will follow my time on board SV Arcturus as we explore the Åland Islands and beyond. We sail into cities, tie up on small islands, anchor bows to and ride out a blow before heading back to Sweden. I hope you will follow along with us on the trip.

Ahoy Friends!

I am VERY stoked to present to you my first sailing book; SIX NIGHTS ON THE HOOK AT SANTA CRUZ ISLAND.

I have published a number of books in the past and worked as a writer for both in print and online publications but this is my first, of many, books on the subject of sailing.

SIX NIGHTS is perfect bound paperback book with 133 pages. It features all of my journals from my first solo sailing trip and solo anchoring experiences. This trip came 8 months after I first bought Triteia and 5 months after I had gotten her back into sailing condition.

This trip was documented in video episodes first here on my channel as Season 2. The book goes a bit deeper into what I was thinking, my highs and my lows and describes things that may have been passed over in the short video episodes.

The book can be purchased at:
https://svtriteia.bigcartel.com

This book is print on demand and will require approximately two weeks for delivery from the printer.

As I mentioned in the video I don't expect to make a fortune with this book but maybe it will lead to more writing opportunities with sailing publications.

I look forward to copies finding their way into sailors ship's libraries and would love to see photos of the book in the wild for any of you who buy a copy for your boat.

So head over to our shop and pick a copy up if you are interested!

Thanks,
James

Hello Friends,

This week I bring you the second part of our quick diving trip to the Isthmus. On this episode Colby and myself explore Little Fishermans Cove underwater. Not sure who much life we would see we were pleasantly surprised by the abundance of creatures we encountered including lobsters on a stroll, another shark egg, a large crab and the largest Octopus I have ever seen in the wild!

Later that evening we went on an amazing night dive out near the point close to Cherry Cove!

The next day we untied the lines and headed home making for a great quick weekend get away trip that was full of adventure.

These episodes were the first we have shot with our new GoPro Hero 7 Black that we were able to buy with help from the contributions from our patrons!

We can't thank y'all enough for your continued support!

Until Next Week,
Fair Winds,
Sailor James

| Season 3 | Episode 40 | PART 2 (After...)

This video is the story of what happened to us after we ran aground in the Stockholm Archipelago and the mistakes we made that nearly lead to the drowning of both the captain and myself. I have made this "Part II" of previous episode ( https://youtu.be/LRdur2e2pyU ) so it would be a stand alone story and a cautionary tale of sorts to try and help any sailors out there that might find themselves in a similar situation in the future.

I am very grateful to have not drowned on that day and felt it was my duty to other mariners to share this experience and the mistakes we made to try and help others.

It is very easy to judge our actions from he comfort of ones home but please keep in mind that when you are faced with life or death situation sometimes you have to make less than ideal choices or watch a friend drown.

I would have done some things the same and some things differently, either way, here is the story.

You can see where we ran aground on google maps in the satellite view... https://goo.gl/maps/PTicm89PQWN2 ( 59º 32' 30" N 18º 53' 36" E )

This latest season will follow my time on board SV Arcturus as we explore the Åland Islands and beyond. We sail into cities, tie up on small islands, anchor bows to and ride out a blow before heading back to Sweden. I hope you will follow along with us on the trip.

Episode 399 : Season 13 : Sailing Indonesia

Hello Friends,
On this episode we go on one last dinghy mission at Tual and check out the stilt houses along the waters edge. The next morning we head off and make our way to Ngurbloat Beach where we check out some of the local boats and watch the construction of a large FAD ( https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov..../national/bycatch/fi ) on the beach. We also had a nice time walking through the deserted board walk that fills with night life after dark.

On this episode I install the ports on the holding tank, get all the plumbing sorted out, install the Y valves and figure out the best way to align and find the best spot for the macerator pump. The hose that leads to the Thru-hull would NOT go on so I ended up getting a heat gun and after sometime was able to get it to seat.

I make my project videos on the slow side letting people see what I did and how I dealt with obstacles, in past videos my viewers have thanked me for not jumping over all of the details and getting right to the finished project so while this might not be the most exciting video it might help some people out there see how I dealt with certain aspects of the project.

Thanks for watching!
