Nice catch. :D Keep this girl. Something about a woman who's willing to help scrub the hull that is completely precious.

[rywalter]

This would be like a perfect love story mate. Great vids and awesome adventure!

[fr-ruep]

[jdmualia]

[unclerob]

I just found your channel and have been enjoying your vids. I used to live in Portland, OR but moved inland to Utah a few years ago. I was getting a kick out of seeing your groceries, Mission brand tortillas, Tillamook cheese. the same stuff I have in my fridge!
Good for you going for it!!!! You are living my life!!!

So cool to see what Jude is up to! I met her in New Zealand. She's one of my favorite people in the world!

[PreludeDee]

I really enjoy following your journey. It inspires me to chase my sailing dreams, especially since you started out in the Seattle area, my local sailing area. Look forward to the next episode! Thanks & fair winds!

[flooptydoo]

Another awesome video! Thanks for sharing!

[crazyify]

Damm man I went visit lukunor just for one day, I saw your boat and I was wondering who owned that boat..
Here we are watching your YouTube channel ..I'm freaking out now

[NoGreenSharks]

Very awesome! And great addition to the crew. Keep it up, man! I can't wait to get caught up on your videos. But then I'll have to wait in suspense for each new one!

[jessejnukuto]

I am from one of the outer islands in Chuuk, the northwestern part now residing in Japan, have you ever been to the northwestern islands of Chuuk ?or do you ever plan on sailing to Chuuk someday?

[gregcurrie]

Andy your story reminds me of "Dove", which you have probably read or have seen the movie. He was a bit younger than you but met the girl of his dreams along the way and ended up marrying her. Read it if you haven't already. Enjoying your trip so far.

[donalexander]

Andy, very i'm sure youve already heard this, but invest in some image stabilization love your adventure.

[USMCCGAGNG]

You're going where I'd love to go one day! I had planned to live on Yap a few years ago but bought a sailboat instead!

[chargeracing]

Looks like you need a longer fish gaff! Don't fall in trying to pull in your catch. Also, if you go back to solo sailing, you may want to set up a harness and jackine. Do you have one? I don't think I have seen you with one yet. Love your videos and Best of Luck from Vancouver, Canada.

[laurentfroggy]

Ok, I am new to your channel but have subscribed and will follow from now on. You may want to sort a proper mic though. Thanks for sharing. Best from Hong Kong 🇭🇰

[BruceInFlorida]

Curious why you don't spend more time on these islands? You seem to be in a rush to get somewhere? Awesome finding a shipmate! You two seem to get along well... A belated Happy New Year to you! Fair winds and following seas from this boring life in Florida 😄

[epgregory]

Andy, what make and year is your boat?

[benthrelkeld]

I love these videos. Keep it up. Has the Cape Dory 30 met your expectations for a cruising boat? How does a guy from WA know how to surf? This is a questions from a guy from CA.
