How much was your total fuel cost for this trip?
Awesome! Should be an awesome trip! Lots of history and new sights to see. All of that maintenance will pay off. Good job!
Great. I'll be sure to tune in. If you guys like to snorkel, be sure to look into dive locations off Islamorada--they're not far from shore, and the marine life is amazing out there (just don't go on a windy day). Postcard Inn at Islamorada would be a great stop. I used to live in Coral Gables and know Islamorada and Key Largo well. Love your channel, guys!
Looking forward to your journey.
Safe travels, Peanut Island is dog friendly, while you are there on Singer Island the Sailfish Marina. Then in Lantana just north of Boynton Beach is the old Key Lime house. When you reach Boynton Beach either 2 George’s or the Banana Boat. I will be looking forward to your vlogs.
Thanks for that info! Glad peanut island is dog friendly. We plan to spend some time around that area.
You two are going to have a blast! Enjoy and be safe. Can’t wait to watch the videos and hear about your big adventures. The crew of New Adventures will be watching!
Hey that’s my fishing spot buddy.
Now don’t give away your secrets. Lol
Hope you have a great time. Be safe.
OMG! I’m jealous. Sounds like a great trip. I don’t know about leaving in June in Florida. It’s going to be brutally hot 🥵
Hope our AC and generator works ok!
The water color is naturally occuring from mangroves that produce tannin, not lake O releases -- thats blue green algae. idiots
This is so exciting, and we are envious of you guys. Norma and I can't wait to follow along.
Yeah we used to have beautiful water
A great Florida adventure! 😎😎
Thats so awesome.
Disgusting discharges to the gulf and into the Atlantic ocean from the huge so that we call Lake Okeechobee
I hope to be down there around that time.
It’s going to be awesome following along!🎉
Looking forward to the trip. 👍🇺🇸🚜
Sounds cool! Can't wait to follow along
Heck yeah, I’m going to tune in
more great videos coming thanks for the update will be watching for them thanks BE SAFE alk in michigan
Ours was a land trip south through the keys. We based our itinerary on a travel blog which was something like "Eat your way to Key West" that was an array of notable restaurants on the way. Of course, we didn't stop at everyone of them but concentrated on things like alligator or key lime pie recommendations. I am looking forward to your trip to recall my memories.
Add Boat command to your boat. Order the thermistor that will keep track of your cabin temperature to protect your dog. We installed ours 4 years ago. There may be times when you are away from the boat possibly. Boat command is easy to install and monitors everything on the boat. Sends you a message to your phone if you have any events. We plan on doing the same trip 7/10/24 leaving from Tarpon Springs. Will be following you!
Good anchorage, restaurants and walking distance to West Marine at SmokeHouse Bay, Marco island.
Hello cap. My suggestion is if you have time the bahamas is mutch better then the Florida Keys since you are in the Atlantic already
That’s another trip. Need to stay close this time around for the Admiral to work.
@@AdventuresofHappyOurs I understand captain.My wife also needs internet to work LO.L
@OutOnTheReef that why she stay home? Lol
Just in time for hurricane season ????? stay safe, Tim and Cat
Can’t hide all summer!
safe travels captain
Worst City in FL to live....
Sounds like an awesome trip!
So Nice have Fun can't wait to follow
Great idea👍👍. Hay, in your spare time please check out (Back Waters and Back Roads). This guy is doing the loop on a shoestring 😀. He seems like a genuine good guy and has his little Beagle, who is sooo part of his story. 30’ aluminum barge with a good size cabin on it…..60hp Honda 4 stoke! Quite an interesting dude and journey. My fiancé and I are going to fly to Ft. Meyers and take the Key West express (large catamaran) down to KW. Enjoy your cool journey! Remember: Law Enforcement Memorial week. Pray for the officers. I have a few very close friend who’s names are carved in that big piece of stone in DC….truly heartbreaking stories…blessed to be retired.🇺🇸 Live Every Day.
Thanks. We did the key west express a couple years ago. Loved it. Have a few videos on it.
You guys are awesome… I would like to see you guys take the. Regal out to Bimini Bahamas … i would be awesome to see how the 26xo do..
Maybe! That’s a big trip on a little boat!
I see guys do it from Miami …
Sounds great. Do you have a folding bike (any bike) that you could use when you go ashore to get provisions? That's the hardest to me. When you get ashore you need to walk to grocery store. Let alone carry stuff back. No matter it's an adventure.
No bikes aboard. But with Uber, we’ll manage.
That's how long I've gone boating! There were no Uber's. I remember having to walk. Funny.
Sweet, that will be awesome. I'm looking forward to tagging along via your video's.
You will have fun! Stuart sandbar is a must, also Jupiter and Peanut Island in West Palm (weekdays are better).
Where exactly is the Stuart sandbar?
@@AdventuresofHappyOurs before exiting the St Lucie Inlet to the left, send me your email so i can send you the info...
Could the Admiral captain the boat if anything should go wrong?
Sounds like a question for the live to put her on the spot. Lol
Exciting news...I can't wait to follow along!!
Great news and update!! Looking forward to your vids and live coverage of this trip!! I’m in Baton Rouge, La. Been a fan and following your channel since you brought the boat down from NY, I’m only about two years out from doing the same boating activities as you guys, will be purchasing about the same size boat etc. Your channel has been so informative and entertaining!! Great job sharing your discoveries and knowledge with us!!
Thank you! Good luck to you!
Wow,This is so exciting,God Bless every Plan and each wave you cross,Looking forward to this New Adventure
Is that the original Clocktower or did they rebuild it?
Not sure
Oh wow this is going to be great .Cannot wait for this trip its going to be a blast
sounds like big fun
Safe travels…looking forward to the videos!
May the hurricanes miss you!!
Highly recommend Marlin Bay Marina in Marathon (we will be there June 20 to 23) and the Esplanade Marina on Marco Island (we will be there June 29-July 1), Marlin Bay has great restaurants within a short walk and there's a huge Publix about a mile away for reprovisioning.
Fantastic news! I will be following the journey 😁
No Bahamas???
Not this trip!
Wow, so fun!!!.......Living the dream. 😀😀😀😀 (Or at least my dream) 😊😊😊
Love it, can't wait to watch the video's.
This is the content I've been waiting for! Day by day trip coverage like the Ny to Fl series :) excited to follow
