YouTube Channels for Boating Content

[Jsherid1]

Would love to hear what you all watch—here are some of my favorites—

1) Travels with Geordie—a former Nova Scotia Homebuilder who lives on a Wooden Monk-designed 38’ cruiser in Victoria, BC. He’s the Bob Ross of boating and a master carpenter/boatwright

2) In Too Deep—Gus is a young guy who has a 50’ Hatteras Motoryacht that he’s doing a rolling restoration on

3) What Yacht to Do—a retired couple (Sam and Rev Crouse) who are multiple Loopers on their Carver 504 CPMY

4) Scho and Jo—a young couple who are doing the Great Loop on an old Marine Trader trawler

5) Blue Cat Marine—he does a variety of boat projects and adventures, a real good guy who is quite hilarious (think IRL Tommy Boy on the water)

6) Adventures of Happy Ours—boating stuff around Cape Coral by a recently retired couple from NY

Would love to find a few more

In to deep is an ambitious and talented young man, with a huge drive to do things. but recently he is taking a lot of risks, open sea transfers between boats is not the smartest thing to be doing.

Also Trying Not to Sink, lots of content on a Hatteras 58 MY

For something beyond the great travel content already mentioned, I enjoy https://www.youtube.com/@everythingboatswithCaptFrank

My Favorite is "Sampson Boat Co.- Tally Ho: rebuilding a 1910 Gaff Cutter" He has been rebuilding the boat for six years now. Go back and watch from the beginning, it is great.

That is one of my favorites - I would love to meet Ed and Lynn - Not a Hatteras, but check out Onboard Tangaroa. This couple bought a 1969 Stevens aluminum-hull 70footer in Alaska that probably hasn't had the level of TLC they're giving it since the '70s.

Let's not forget Sail Life!

(I know, but it is mostly working on the boat actually, especially the first 5-7 yrs of episodes.)

Thanks for the list, I didn't any of these existed!

Sail life is one of the best, for a guy that knew nothing about boat repair and fiberglass work he has done some great work. Boat works today has taught me alot and there is "renovation sportfish". He is very meticulous in his work.

If you like boat building there is only one “Sailing Yaba” old wood schooner that was sinking being rebuilt from frames out in Brazil.

Thanks Bob! Laura just released a new one this morning. I still don't think we have hit the mark yet but we are trying. When we get good with the drone and after boat launch this year I'm hoping we can do a little better job

I showed Ed and Lynn a 53 ED in Maryland before they found their 58 in Florida. Nice folks. They sure have become famous.

 

[Scarlett]

Hard to tell if Ed and Lynn are famous for boating or drinking. Boy can they drink!! We passed them going in opposite directions on the ICW and I called him on the VHF and told him I had a 53 MY in San Diego and that we watch their channel. The VHF call was on one of their episodes.

Love watching the haulover inlet vids. There’s some real nice CC’s running that inlet.
