One of the most honest, thoughtful and informative videos on the real life of boat life. There is also the endless maintenance, the time spent on visas, etc. Many people now watch a KZbin channel, see a few hours touting the great things about boat life, and they don't know the reality until they're well into the stresses. If they are aware of the things you talked about, and they have plans for how to deal with these problems, sailing/boating is incredible. And not everyone needs to sail around the world. Just having a boat at a marina for a few years while learning to sail/motor, venturing further and further away can be a totally fulfilling lifestyle of boating. That eliminates many of the problems, but takes away much of the adventure/discover of new lands. Everything is a choice. Thanks for these beautiful, literary videos!

All that you have related is very true, you must have put a lot of thought into this vid. Currently I own a 43' cruising cat, and for the last 8 years I've been cruising in the Caribbean for 3 months of the year, and working the other 9, so I can kind of relate. One of my biggest problems is budget... invariably something always comes up that blows the plan out of the water, and I tend to spend more than average on berthing, hotels, dining at restaurants, and paying to have some of the drudgery work done. When the weather is nice with a fair wind from the right direction, and everything on the boat is turnkey, I can't think of a better way to spend my time, and I contemplate putting the house up for rent and cruising full time, however sometimes there are those days when I feel perhaps I should have my head examined.

But choosing a lifestyle like living on a boat, or anything that may bring with it periods of isolation, you’d best know whether or not you enjoy your own company. And, as stated, you can’t run away from your demons. Reminds me of a wonderful book on meditation called “Wherever You Go, There You Are” - with the key point in the title!

This might be the first youtube video I've commented on, but after getting a small 50 year old sailboat for free recently, and fixing her up to cruise my local waters, I've been having a lot of thoughts about living onboard (a larger boat). Not only has this video made me feel like I might be making the right choice by wanting to live onboard, but it's also put my working life into perspective too. I've spent the last 6 years sailing cruise ships as a junior deck officer, and the constant stress and anxiety used to really bother me. Your description of your own experiences has helped me to understand the feelings that I've had throughout my career so far. So thank you. For two reasons.

Well said! Regarding boat size, I would also say that no one should buy a boat until they've sailed on a number of them. A 28 foot boat in four foot seas (common in many places) is a rough ride. A 45 footer just shrugs it off. But, one person can't fight a 45' boat, when brute strength would work on something smaller. A wide cabin is nice at harbor, but just allows you to be thrown harder at sea. There are so many differences in boats, there's no replacement for actually learning which "shoe" fits before you buy one.

I have owned, sailed and raced catamarans, dinghys and small keelers for 30 years. I once did a 3 night 4 day trip from Cape Town to Cape St Frances along the southern coast of South Africa. After a lifetime of dreaming of sailing around the world, my dream died in its tracks right there. I loved the trip, I loved the sailing, the big seas, the rough weather, everything. But I realized there was so much more I wanted to do with my life than watch the horizon drift by at 7 knots, day after day. Well done, Sailing Magic Carpet - a thoughtful and highly relevant piece that does investigate some of the challenges - especially the life challenges, of a life at sea. I still love my sailing, I still love boats, but I am no longer under the illusion that living on one over an extended period would suite my personality type.

With so many sailing channels out there now, competition is huge. If you want to grow and have many subs (over 100K) you actually have to be good at something other than sailing AND good at making videos. You need a mission (as opposed to being an influencer, doing ads). What I like about this channel is that it is destination-focused and Maya's musical accompaniments are something unique that brings a lot to the channel. If this channel featured a million dollar cat, videos about boat maintenance and a family soap, I would not watch. Here instead we have modest boat, excellent narration (I love the background research) and two young talented people following their passion. There is a sense of adventure and delight that lives on.
