Those dolphins always showing off. 🙂
Nice video Capt
What could be more awesome.
Hi LiteSpeedRC, Westsail 42 Fiona’s hull was made in 1975 by Westsail Corporation in Costa Mesa, CA. It was sent by truck to Eric Forsyth in NY, where he spent 8 years building the interior. There’s a lot of great stuff about Fiona at Eric’s yachtfiona website.
What year is Fiona? She’s a good ship you can tell.
Drake, Beautiful – I use iMovie too – you’ve done a fine job. Cheers
Thanks kex, we get a lot of our music from Jewel Beat and the name of this particular song is Wonder and Magic. They have a wonderful catalog of songs and are extremely easy to use. —blue skies, mo
Great video! What music is in the background?
Thanks Drake… there’s so many cool experiences on the water… lot’s of surprises. I’ll check it out the Audacity program and give it a try. Love your videos… keep them coming 🙂
Hi Mickeysail, thanks – it was amazing to see that cormorant bird visitor hanging out in the cockpit of your boat under sail. I do all of my video and audio editing with a Macintosh using a variety of different programs including iMovie, Final Cut Pro and Audacity. Audacity is an audio editor that is also available for Windows. Happy sailing! Drake
Hi Drake, Thanks for subscribing to my videos. I have recent dolphin videos to post as well. I like your music and sound over the music. How did you do that? Great footage on your videos… love it!
Absolutely great footage.
Super cool. Looks so warm out! What kind of dolphins are they?
Awesome video Drake, Thanks for putting up all the great vids
@cougar0189c – Ya no kidding ay? Congratulations on your new boat! Fair winds, calm seas and happy sailing..
I can’t believe you posted a video where hell fire and brimstone is not raining down. I was starting to wonder it you had the worst luck ever or that’s just the way it is. Just bought a 38’er and hope to head out soon.
Hi Bob, Thank you. It was a great voyage! I hope Eric can find good crew for the next big leg across the Atlantic. Wish I could go, but I have to work on my boat to be ready to push off in the Spring.
Nice video. I hope you’re having a good voyage – Bob, former FIONA crewmember
