Vlog #6

Another update from Krabi Boat Lagoon as I continue to prep the boat for departure. Planning to head out into the wild blue yonder tomorrow. 

In this episode we rescue a cat from Neptune’s embrace, continue repairs and maintenance on the boat, and welcome Alex the Russian for a visit. 

Due to the high quality love story crafted into this video I’m making this a paid post. Love ain’t cheap. 😉 

Vlog #5

First vlog from Krabi in which I attack the todo list, go shopping, talk about the tide, and play with gas. 

I have a few more days in the marina, during which time I’ll continue prepping the boat. Early next week I’m sailing out, and heading up to Yacht Haven Marina. Hope to cover more boat projects, talk about Pirate Jam, and capture some more of beautiful Thailand in upcoming vlogs. 

As always, thanks for joining the adventure!

Vlog #4

The latest vlog, in which I travel from Shanghai to Krabi, Thailand. 

After arriving at 4.30am, I slept for a few hours, was able to edit the final bits of this video, then struggled with uploading until the late afternoon. That’ll teach me to complain about the Internet in China! 

Skipped recording new footage today – had to clean mold out of the boat.. not something I think anyone really needs to see made into a video log. Will start a new log tomorrow. 

As always, thank you all for your feedback and support! 

Vlog #3

A typical Sunday in Shanghai. Sunrise, jackhammers, shopping, and dumplings. 

For all my wonderful Patrons: I neglected to add your names (as promised) to the previous vlogs. Apologies for that! I’ll be sure to include you in future videos. At the same time, I’ve not yet made any of these posts paid, and don’t know when I might do that. Maybe when I start running out of beer money 😉

I’m heading to Thailand about 36 hours from when this is being posted. Will capture and share travel, arrival at the boat, and all that follows. Happy to have you along for the journey! 

Vlog #2

In this vlog we talk about Lulu, seek out jackhammer noise, visit the Shanghai camera market, and zip through the city on an electric scooter. A typical Saturday, ultimately interrupted by a typical noise.

Only 2 days remain before I head off to Thailand where I’ll be getting the boat ready for an outing, prepping for Pirate Jam, and sailing to visit friends in beautiful locations around the Andaman Sea. 

Captain’s Vlog #1

Dear Patrons, 

Huge apologies for not uploading this first Vlog to Patreon at the same time I posted it on YouTube. Still getting used to this whole Patreon thing! 

More importantly, I wanted to send out a big THANK YOU to each of you who’ve signed up to be Patrons so early on. It means a lot to me that you have faith in my creativity and are willing to support my adventures. 

Here in Shanghai I’m making preparations for the next sailing adventure in Thailand. I’m heading out to Krabi early next week, then making regular update as I sail around during the month of August.

In these upcoming videos I’d love to include content driven by your requests, so please let me know if there are any questions you’d like answered, aspects of sailing you’d like covered, or other bits of info you’d like me to share. 

Cheers,
