This is the start of our winter sailing season! Happy New Year everyone and thanks for watching throughout the year. I went "full time" with video creation this year and it wouldn't have been possible without all of you that watch these videos, and special thanks goes to all the patrons.

I was a meteorologist prior to retirement, for 35 years. Many of those years were in Alaska. If you have any questions, let me know.

I worked 25 years in television and making documentaries, including National Geographic, and your channel is really very good. You have nothing to envy of the best and most exquisite productions. Really magnificent.

I single handed my 48 ft Crocker Ketch from Sitka AK to Caig AK back in winter of 1994. Got stuck in Little Puffin Bay for two weeks during a big storm. Had to run lines out to trees on the shore. One of the best two weeks of my life. Ate a lot of fresh halibut.

Happy to “sea” that you are wearing dry suits and life jackets while paddle boarding in those cold waters as cold shock is extremely dangerous, and so many people fail to realize the importance of wearing a dry suit when paddling etc. You create the very best sailing videos on YouTube !

“Not for the feint of heart” is the expression which extends to most of Alaska.

How sweet to have a coffee shop with panoramic views complete with live intertainment!
Thanks much for the field trip!

I was intrigued to see how mild the winter is even in December. Although I now reside in CA I was raised in the Midwest and I think they're having worse weather than Alaska. Alaska is full of surprises.

What a sail. What an amazing couple! Looking at your hat, have you had a hair cut! Happy New Year from Norway!

[annsheridan]

A wonderful way to visit Alaska from the warm comfort of the couch. Keep it up, most enjoyable.

Take care and safe sailing for the new year. Sohvi seems happy. That’s good❤️ Maybe it’s the new haircut?

I have never been on a sailboat in my 57 years it is on my bucket list and you’re content is amazing I wish the both of you safe travels 🎉🎉❤

Moment when Juho copied sea lion(and Sohvie joking about it too) roaring was brilliant. Thank you for opening a window to this wondrous and somewhat lonesome region. Fair winds, calm seas and 7 feet under the keel!
