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.

Grab your morning, afternoon, or evening beverage and get comfy with us for an episode with literally ALL the feels! We have our worst emergency since becoming a #fulltimerv family. With 4 kids it was probably inevitable! Luckily we were able to balance out a crappy week with a great surprise for the kids (and Brandon) and our 15-year old Jadyn finally coming back to us. We are constantly learning while full time #RVing and in this case we learned what we probably should do when we get to a new campsite/location. We also threw in our favorite oatmeal recipe with one ingredient error (4 cups of liquid instead of 2)...see below for the the full recipe!

The best of the BVI's.. well kinda. We barely scratch the surface, but we have come to the end of a beautiful week here. After visiting the Bitter End Yacht Club, I checked out The Baths with @SpearItAnimal and @PiratePrincessChronicles before settling into a beautiful anchorage.

Give a little extra support 💞 The circumnavigation is JUST beginning... all of your help goes towards more gear to make the videos a bit better and the boat safer and more functional for myself as a single hand (and maybe an extra treat for Mako)

The Liger Crew discuss the interworking of the marine industry over a few glasses of tea. It's depressing how this all played out, being that they spent the majority of the last 4 years on the hard fixing their boat, after buying a BRAND NEW LEOPARD 45. Trent was almost defeated, but Talisha powers through! This is not something that most sailors want to hear about, or talk about, but it needs to be documented. Check out their YouTube channel Travel Sketch- https://www.youtube.com/@travelsketch

Video tour, and discussions with Captain Blackie aboard his yacht LOVE. Blackie created LOVE from mostly scrap metal over a period of 8 years, and he has sailed her around the Pacific for the past 24 years. He captured a Mermaid in the process.

How many captains do you know that built their own boat, sailed it for over 24 years, sailed through a typhoon, got knocked down a twice, countless crossings, spent 84 days at sea on one crossing, and is still enjoying the cruising life?

Well, I know ONE..... Captain Blackie....

I thought you would be interested in what he has to say about sailboats, sailing, and the cruising life!! So, sit back, and grab a full case of beer, because this one is a long one.

Cheers!!

From the first few days it became clear that our Leopard 45 had leaks all over varying in severity. We are trying to group similar issues together to help paint an overall picture of what brought us to here and why we are handling it the way that we are.

In this short video, we take a look at which of the Lewmar hatches on our catamaran leaked, the possible causes of the hatches leaking (which can apply to other brands of yacht) and what the warranty/rectification response from Leopard Catamarans and Robertson & Caine was like for the boys in Cape Town. We also show you how we leak test our hatches using a hose or bucket, just in case you're buying or handing over a new boat.

In the past videos we've touched on leaks from the windows, exhaust mixer hose, the skylights and deck fittings; now we're going to share what we've learned about leaking hatches based on our experiences on our new Leopard catamaran built by Robertson and Caine.

Please note that many shots are close up or cut down as they feature Robertson and Caine employees in frame. If we show their faces, Robertson and Caine may use another legal challenge to take the video down even though Trent made it completely clear that the boat and employees were being filmed by his friends and obtained permission, which middle management later withdrew as the warranty issues accumulated. Trent then said it is a condition of entry to the boat that you may be on film and everyone accepted these terms. One guy later said he no longer wanted to be filmed who Tynan did not film after that date to make Marcel's life easier. This is the same guy who allowed filming during the handover test sail then decided to lodge a legal complaint with Youtube breaking his verbal agreement. If they didn't want to be on camera they had the option not to be but instead chose to be filmed invalidating half the footage for use on this platform without a large blur over them.

Episode #138 : A weekend trip to Avalon before the Pandemic Hit America

Hello Friends,

The next few episodes were filmed in February before the Pandemic took hold of America and California declared the stay at home orders.

On this episode we push off from Los Angeles Harbor for Camille's first trip to Avalon for some diving and hanging out with James' little brother Colby Thorp and our dear friend Jimmy Shannon.

This was our first adventure trip since the haul out and while the winds didn't work in our favor we still had an enjoyable motorsail to the island.

In this happy days episode we are having lots of fun even though we manage to do quite a lot of boat work as well. My Swedish friends leave their kids with me and BE FREE is converted to a kindergarten. Hanging out with new and old friends her E-Foiling and dinghy sailing. I'm trying E-Foiling for the first time and helping Kylie out with her leaky window.

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:
I`m sailing sailing around the world in my Bavaria 55 Cruiser, making videos whenever I have time for it. Most of the time I sail singlehanded but occasionally I do have sailing friends onboard. Still in the Caribbean due to Covid and was supposed to be in Asia by now.

Even though this is season 3 on youtube I have already sailed 4 seasons full time but did not make that many videos in the beginning. Before full-time sailing, I have sailed several seasons in the Med prior to this, and obviously also in Scandinavia. I have been traveling the world before and also been an active regatta sailor. I had my first sailboat at age 7 and been sailing ever since.

PLEASE BE KIND IN THE COMMENTS!
I'm just a normal person sharing my travel adventure through my eyes and experience from my perspective! Remember how I do things might work for me but not for you. It might even not be the correct way to do things, and I don't have the blueprint either. I'm not perfect and nobody is. The day I believe I know it all and don't think I can learn new things I should go ashore.
