Great videos Jeff. You missed your true calling:)

Thanks Tim,

Had this YouTube page for a while now and I thought I would finally put some sailing clips up there. I have been documenting my adventures on DVD's for a couple year now thanks to the ease of the iLife features on my Mac. Those are too big to post but little clips are not. Now I need to get a better camera than my little Olympus point and shoot that does video. I would love to see some of other EY.org folks post some vids as well. Great way to check out each others boats.

Jeff,

I just came in from 2 hours of solo sailing out of Dana Point. Not a lot of wind but it's always good to be on the water. Thought I better get at least some sail time in before the weather moves in.

Thanks for posting the videos. Its great to see you under sail. Were you solo? "On the leash" is always a good idea when alone.

Good to hear from you Sam,

I am anchored to a desk right now. Wish I could have been on the water today. Yes I was solo in that video when I sailed to Cat harbor last August. I always wear my pfd when I'm solo, and try to stay leashed as much as possible. Especially when I'm using the auto pilot solo!

Thx for sharing! Always nice to see another 27 in a video; unfortunately, we're on the hard for a few more months up here so we can only dream!

Jeff, I loved the dramatic scene...." pretty tired... been on the helm now for 4 or 5 hours"..and then the camera pans over to "Otto" :egrin:

Great clips Jeff.

Hey Dave,


Regardless of "Sinbad the Simrad" sailing the boat, it still gets tiring just keeping your eyes open. What should have been a 6 hour trip became a 7.5 hr trip. Also I find time passes faster underway when I have crew. I was solo. I know, I know, life's rough.

Let me guess? You Sven?

I have a lot more sailing clips on my YouTube main page. Go to: http://www.youtube.com/user/jazapuss

Thanks for watching all!:egrin:

Very nice, Jeff - I especially like your friends reaction to your announcement of filming ("Ahhhhhhhhhhh nooooooooooooooooooooo...........).... :egrin:

Thanks Sean. Those Guy's are a little dinghy. A couple of retired live a boards that hardly ever take their boats out, let alone go aloft. They are good for one thing though.... hoisting me up there.

Oh, yeah, they both own Catalina's.:esad:

Hahaha...yes, a sailor's lot is rough, but someone has to make that sacrifice :egrin:
