Wow Guys.. I don't know what to say. What an awesome Feedback! Actually I was a bit grumpy because it was really difficult to get the video uploaed in Grenada.
I used my dinghy to try the WiFis of several bars and finally found one which had an upload speed of wrapping 500kb/s ... So I had to drink several Carib beers to get the 10GB clip up :)
Boah, ich hab alles gelesen, das Video muss warten. Gratuliere euch zu eurem Mut und eurem Durchhaltevermögen! Genießt euren Erfolg! Resteem! !giphy sailing
Trotz leichter Seekrankheit nach dem Lesen Eures Abenteuer Berichts, war die Begeisterung mal wieder groß.
Weiterhin viel Spaß und Danke das ihr uns mitnehmt auf Euren Segeltörn. 😎
Great narrative and photos (I hope google translate did it justice)!
These types of posts are what need to be showcased on STEEM! I am part of a curation initiative to help ensure high quality posts such as yours continue to get the exposure they deserve.
Some friendly suggestions to that end:
You probably could have broken this up into 3 posts and posted as a series, as about 2000 words is the sweet spot for blog length.
Also the use of markdown to create some headings and dividers would have really helped with the flow of your article.
A few notes from my end. In the past I did german+english posts + english subs in the videos. But this is so so much work. We wrote the post while sailing, so the memory is fresh ;) Doing this in english as well is close to impossible. I think my english is not the worst, but here and there I have to look things up. But without internet .. heh ...
Adding subs in the video is way more time consuming. I thing I need around 4..5 time of the lenght of the video to add proper subs... so no, I want to make holidays and let people know what I'm doing, not sitting on my boat the whole day looking up the proper wording for subtitles ;)
About the splitting, hmm ... on the cape verdes we kinda split things between the islands. On this tour it would have been possible aswell but we are on Grenada right now an new content is stored on my SD card as we speak. To do this in weekly updated would cause huge delays between the blog and the actual journey.
We really would like to prevent that, because we meet some nice people already, who were reading our blog. It would be a shame if it hangs like 3 or 4 weeks behind because of splitting things.
I think this one was a massive one... next ones will be shorter because there is simply not so much content for such a short time.
e.g. the whole last week we did mostly nothing ... relaxing, a couple of carib beers ... not worth than a single line in our next post ;)
The images are located on my own private Server, I pay for since 2004. So I can be sure they won't get lost. This is not very cheap, around 1500€/year, but well ... That's actually also the reason I don't use dtube. Uploaded over 100 vids and none of them is working anymore.
So I switched back to youtube and martin-kuettner.de (my domain) to host the images/videos. I want the content still beeing up in lets say 1..2 years. I know steemit is a short term platform and I really hope the devs are going to change that in one of the upcoming HF's. ;)
lol joshmay, you're the man. In contrary to this I really thank you for your little criticism. We'll keep them in mind on the next posts. Well better than a downvote and just a comment: "TLDR" ...
You're welcome. We are more or less hunting for authors capable of making magazine article quality posts for which we can boost to trending. Any criticism I made was based solely on that goal. Your work stands on its own just fine.

That makes sense. There's nothing to apologize for really, it's still an awesome post!
