On this episode I start my crossing of the Indian Ocean, 6000 miles lay between me and South Africa where I will end the year. But first we have to cross the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal !

I was bound for the Maldives but the incredibly light winds I was faced with during this transition season would soon change my plans!

Make sure you tune in for the next episode as well to see how we make it more than 1200 miles with almost no wind at all!!!!

I think it's safe to say that we can feel your happiness and love of the sea where ever we are. Grateful for sharing your adventures with everyone.

This is probably the most peaceful channel I've seen on YouTube. I just hope James stays safe.

The big ocean crossings is what initially brought me to this channel. You are an absolute madman. There is nothing like this channel anywhere else. Singular, riveting content. Thank you for another great video.

I am sad and going through a bout of depression. I follow The Sailors and enjoy the content with you all; you make me happy. Thank you. I hope Arabic dubbing gets added.

I like this style. Less talking and just rawness

Your ability to somehow deal with adversity and problems is amazing. I don’t sail but find the ocean crossings bizarrely engrossing 👍😀. Keep it up!

as a truck driver of 25 years, id crack each injector line at the motor 1 by 1 , id crack the injector then crack engine to see if fuel is geting to each injector then retighten. also chech fuel tank pickup hose depth, do you have the ablity to remove and inspect fuel tank pick up assembly, check for FOD ! , somthing is starving your engine of fuel. or you have a possible crack in a fuel line , check all clamps for air leaks , but then you would see and smell fuel so im leaning towards FOD in the fuel pick up assembly.
