Only in the heart of the big cities are you really alone!... At sea, you're face to face with yourself, in your true place as a tiny animal in the heart of Mother Nature... You're where you belong!

Great perspective on being alone. There is a big difference between being alone and being lonely. I sail solo and in general, spend a lot of time alone. I have never been lonely and relish the time I get to spend by myself. As you said, when you get out there and turn off the noise, get in tune with your surroundings, it is immensely satisfying.

Pretty accurate.
I embrace the solitude. I am so enthralled by the natural world that I haven't taken time to read a book on passage.

Good point about inspecting the deck and rigging while at the mast and foredeck.

I'm about to buy my first sailboat and plan to sail solo most of the time and you gave very useful info - thanks! The "feeling lonely" risk was however nothing I worried about. I have done several long (4 weeks) solo trips hiking or skiing in the mountains. I share your experience - the connection to nature is much stronger when going solo, and I love that feeling.

It’s funny because if some of these myths are true it’d work out perfectly for me, I’m an insomniac and I love being alone, sounds like a blast 😂

Re trusting the AIS at sea... I would be afraid of running into the CoughSneese fishing fleet, they like to turn their AIS off from time to time. You never know when you'll run into one of them - literally.

Love the pith helmet, really suits you, there’s probably a great story attached to it 😆👍

already I like this channel better than the rest. there are some real poseurs out there, especially when they hit 60k subs they get real smarmy.

The takeaway: leave people with their problems on shore 😂

Of all the listening I have heard on sailing yours has been the most honest and forthright. I appreciate you.

I watch a number of solo sailing Youtube channels. The people sailing struggle a lot. Sometimes they're in a state of panic. I suppose they must feel some kind of sense of accomplishment for all the troubles and struggles that they constantly complain about.
