ASMR The SOUNDS of The Sea 🌊- DAY 5 / North Atlantic Crossing | Sailing Uma [Step 192.05]

Here is something DIFFERENT!
Day 5 of our North Atlantic Crossing was a beautiful day. We stayed hours in the cockpit, just listening to the world. and to share with you exactly how ZEN we felt, we decided to ONLY film the sounds of the sea around us. This mini-step has NO VOICES, NO MUSIC, only the beautiful and peaceful connection between our sailboat and the ocean.
We understand this type of video isn't for everyone, so if this isn't your cup of tea, no need to be mean or dislike, just come back tomorrow 😉

Sometimes silence speaks volumes and you just wrote a novel. Well done!

[@gwalsh1972]

Many would find this video boring. Listening to the hull displace the waves was pure joy for me.

[@abuluqa7348]

Crossing the ocean, with today's available technology, with the person you love...I cannot imagine a better experience in life.

[@gunnerandersen4634]

doing it how they did back in 1700

[@yoyoo50]

@@gunnerandersen4634 Yep.Thats something i'd be willing to try. Microwave popcorn (see previous episode) is good but kind of irrelevent in a passage like this. Cheers.

[@arfyness]

@@gunnerandersen4634 Exactly the same.

[@JKSSubstandard]

And the academy award for best sound in a youtube video goes to.....

[@bdphourde]

The North Atlantic!

[@edrussell7960]

I have been dying for someone to do this. I have asked many bloggers to do this, no music, no party, just the sea and a vessel going thru it. Absolutely awesome. Video and sound are perfect.

[@carolbopp7736]

That sound of the water on the hull is heaven on earth, beautiful and peaceful. Thank you!!!

[@andrewsteinhaus8267]

I’m going to fall asleep to this every night. Thinking about how to break out of the cubicle

[@Neverwho667]

Beautiful. I have not seen another sailing vlog portray so well what it is like being at sea. The vast openness, the constant motion, the endless rush of water past the hull. Thanks.

[@Grant-vk6zo]

Please record one of these a few hours long. I could sleep like a baby.

[@berndheiden7630]

Grant Marshall Just copy the clip as often a you wish! Any length of time you need. Put it on a SD-Card or USB-Stick and done.

[@robertomejia3213]

Same here!

[@Seawizz203]

I don’t need music or any other distractions when sailing a reach like this. How peaceful it is. The boat cutting through the water. The water in harmony with the hull and the wind. Can listen for hours on end and not be bored. A sound land lubbers will never know and know not what they miss and be the worse for it. Nice video.....nicer audio.

[@wernerjacq]

You did it again! Breaking the mold, by capturing the essence of sailing.... importing the feeling into my living room. Your creativity pays of. Very much appreciated!!!

[@BRYKS22]

I could loop this episode and go to sleep to it...listening to the wind and the water on a passage is the most relaxing thing ever!!!

[@rosserpace3602]

I have watched hundreds of sailing videos and this may be my favorite.....well done. Sail well....

[@nicklandon2595]

Nothing ever made me feel like commenting before, so 1st is to you for a phenomenal film, as a sailor you put me straight out on the water. Fantastic!

[@wjhann4836]

I have to agree - this is a seldom example of a film that atmospheric shows the calmness of a long journey. My friends and I often tried to take pictures and films about sailing, but it seems to be very difficult to get the feeling to the auditorium.

[@bernadetteotesanya9193]

Great first comment loved it 👏👏👏👏👏

[@Itsp3rsonal]

Thank you for the respite from this noisy world :)

[@theelephantintheroom8016]

The great Atlantic crossing under wind and sail Uma slips through the waves determined and able The traders, the privateers, the brave explorers took on the same challenge that Uma has before her To cross the great sea, only wind to move forward Uma, her quest and the brave crew aboard her

[@grantrodgers2829]

I think that may be one of the best sailing blogs I have ever seen. Thank you

[@andrewfyakim525]

This was wonderful!... I think I'll go back and watch it again..... I prefer hearing this; much more so than dubbed in music. This is music.

[@georgebetar923]

It's artistic in its simplicity. A pleaseant change of pace. Thank you for sharing.

[@uprightfossil6673]

I love it. I have been on land for twenty years now and THIS IS MUSIC TO MY EARS.... What others call music is noise to me. Thanks to you and others, I will be back on the water as soon as I get back in good health. Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Peace

[@TraneFrancks]

Best of luck on your healing path. Fair winds and following seas, Robert.

[@daniseakey6773]

Simply irresistible.....there's no telling where the money went.....simply irresistible, there's no other way to go.... lol couldn't help it

[@colinhoward2200]

For the record, this is perhaps one of the best sailing videos I have ever seen. It totally encapsulates the sense of sailing for those of us who can’t at the moment, as you just capture the sense and noise without needing to say anything at all. It is totally inspired and thank you - I could watch this on loop :)

[@robertgrimsey3442]

No talking, just the sound of the sea. Loved it

[@steware]

Robert Grimsey I need to find a way to loop this 💕

[@larryboles629]

Thanks to both of you for keeping "us" in the loop.

[@JoanOfArgghh]

This was brilliant. In today's media world vying for short attention spans, we're lucky to enjoy more than a 2-second clip before the next image bombards us. So, so, beautiful to hear the ocean without the need for other music! We lived on a boat for two years, but now we can no longer experience the ocean unless we are alone on a beach without someone's idea of music taking away the very reason for being there.

[@littlejohnny47]

This is what almost all sailing channels miss! Sailing is what it is about! Travelogues are okay sometimes, and making port or leaving are an important part of sailing also, but this video hits all the highs! Thanks so much for reminding me why I love sailing so much! Safe journey!

[@RenegadeRussell]

As I sit in my office, listening to the sound of the water rushing by the hull, the wind in the sails, and the waves lapping, I can't help but be thankful that this time next year this will be my wife and I sailing across the Pacific and all these 14 hour days will be nothing but a distant memory. Awesome post today Uma....Now back to designing buildings I can never afford to live in myself!

[@bartonrobinson4266]

Very mesmerizing..closed my eyes for 10 minutes and almost felt the movement of the waves..very cool. Continued safe passage !!

[@justchillinout2002]

I had to go take a Dramamine!

[@bubbagail7450]

Just a day of sailing, beautiful.

[@lets_go_see_]

Melodic. perception is challenged. The Earth to the Sky. The ocean to the Earth. Your boat to the ocean and your being in relationship to all of it. Surreal

[@colleenbalch328]

As someone who is also sensitive to noise, I admire how you keep your boat quiet. You design for things to stay put, make sure your latches work and are secure, you tuck things away, halyards aren't tapping on the mast... it's soothing to listen to Uma work her way through the water.

[@jimguy08]

FWIW, I absolutely LOVED this episode. I frequently watch KZbin videos like yours to relax before I fall asleep at night, and this step was PERFECT. Please consider making more episodes like this -- it really highlighted the beauty of the sailing lifestyle, I loved it.

[@SailingUma]

Thanks for your input :) definitely thinking of producing more of these along the way

[@abbbee8918]

This video portrays life at sea better than any other. I feel so much closer to knowing what it would feel like crossing an ocean. A brave video, thank you.

[@scotyfilms]

If only the ocean could be like that all the time! so nice.

[@deanie3246]

My 7 week old granddaughter fell asleep listening to your episode. Thank you for that. It’s calming, though amazing too, how much sound Uma produces in the middle of the ocean.

[@SailingUma]

❤

[@paulcampbell7518]

You two are MOVING! Nice to see a well-trimmed boat catching a great breeze.

[@denisperret4175]

I crossed the Atlantic once, it was just like that. Crew, boat, ocean, wind, stars, space, freedom, peace, reading, writing, music. There is nothing like it. The feeling was magical and watching your video took me back there. Thank you.

[@ChisWest]

I agree ... Crossing the ocean, with today’s tech, with that very special someone ... that’s truly a memory of a lifetime.

[@jdawg-j2u]

I could easily have enjoyed a few hours of this. Well done!

[@tardusmerula6102]

This is a part of beautiful planet that God has given us to respect, enjoy and protect...

[@dutchglobetrotter4513]

You could make this an hour long and I would still watch it a couple of times. So relaxing.

[@clarisd]

Today featuring UMA! Her slicing through the waves and almost like a ghost ship she cutting the path! Lovely I watched till the end!

[@philgladwin6863]

A sound that I have loved many a time :-)

[@toddr2265]

OMG, I'm so relaxed now

[@janethartwig774]

This is such a relaxing video. Whenever I’m having trouble going to sleep I put on my CD of ocean sounds and storm/rain sounds. This is so much better. Thank you from California, USA.

[@specialty_k]

Oh my gosh Uma is sailing isn't she? I had to come back to video to listen to the Atlantic ocean one more time!

[@tombarker3608]

Sailing UMA and Gone With the Wynns have given me a new perspective on ocean sailing. I thought you would have waves like on Deadliest Catch and I was afraid for all of you. Continued safe travel Dan and Kika, Jason and Nikki.

[@kenbrown2540]

"Hi, I'm Uma. Welcome to my ASMR channel, Sailing Kika and Dan!"

[@thomaslycke6990]

What an epic video, wind, wawes, sea and sails. No parrots, no disclaming. Just reel sailing. Just Epic.

[@Doctoberfest]

I think sailing channels need less music and more ocean sounds. That's one of the reasons we all love this lifestyle.

[@jamespriyam9362]

The idea of gifting us with the recording of the ambient sound over the ocean while sailing through it, is great. I congratulate you for this and for your beautiful videography and very honest and sincere conversations

[@billb.6109]

This was something very different, ...we loved it! Safe travels.

[@yamarblackburn5642]

Love sound of the sea I’m relaxed thank you

[@bigbobear_tv2917]

Wow, this way u can get a real sense of what its like to cross the ocean! Great video, it should last 3 hrs :). Bon Voyage

[@sailnice]

AAAAAAAWESOME!!!!! A video full of emotion. It touches me. ❤

[@lPaulSaltzman]

After listening to the sounds of the sea, I was ready to pull on my foulies and fetch my harness so that I may assume the watch. Love it. Thanks.

[@bthoreson13]

The ASMR experience we didn’t know we needed 💕

[@ratusbagus]

Hands up who looked that up.

[@kenmerrifield233]

Dan and Kika, that video is soooo representative of the most beautiful aspects of long distant sailing! Near perfect conditions, perfect point of sail, the boil and bubbles of the water rushing past the hull and vane, the subtle sounds of the wind, the images of the sails set and working optimally! This is the closest video I have watched, that matches my feelings of why I loved to sail. Thank you so much!! The video title should have been... "The Zen Sights and Sounds of Sailing at Sea" One question is I estimated you were travelling between 6 - 7 knots? Correct?

[@SailingUma]

Thanks Ken, it's easy to capture what sailing looks like, it's very hard to capture what it feels like, glad you felt something watching this. And yes we average about 6.5 kts, I think in that wind we may have been bumping closer to 7. Good eye.

[@kenmerrifield233]

Thanks for the quick reply, guys. I wish you "fair" winds and the seamanship (with a touch of good luck) to handle the "foul" ones!

[@marcgini1443]

I could use this vid to drown out my tinnitus. Its so calming as well.

[@berndheiden7630]

Marc Gini Just give it a try and listen to it, relax and feel good, close your eyes and get in touch with your inner healing powers! If nothing else you will feel calm and refreshed and that might just be what you need. This video has a hypnotic setting which can be very helpful with your tinnitus!

[@MrAlbertamike]

I never even thought of thanks for the idea.

[@smokedoliver1]

Closest I can get to do this without actually being there, thanks. It’s what I watch sailing videos for.

[@cjamachado]

Monotonous but good sailing. What an immense sea. No crossing with other boats or ships. Incredible.

[@dougschnelzer9168]

You both are artists. In your videos and in life!

[@stevestrout3782]

Love the dancing foul weather gear....

[@egolliher6933]

That was pretty for someone who will never reach ocean it's great to have someone to film it for me love your videos

[@hatexmas]

Great.. Now i gotta pee

[@BEElaine1008]

😂😂😂

[@juans3728]

What a wonderful sound for when sleeping at night is impossible the sounds of the boat sailing through the waves will make you suave and sleepy.

[@lotophagi711]

Lovely. The only things I do differently are to stow the dinghy so that I don't have to worry about it in a big sea, and bring the jack lines to the center of the boat.

[@archiprog_design]

live a crossing of the Atlantic, after a few days, there is no need to speak, the ocean takes care.

[@k-0017]

Excellent video. It's nice to just take a step back from all the craziness and just BE. Thanks.

[@mystisith3984]

That's it. Binge watching for a few days already but so far this is my FAVORITE step. Meditative and calming. Just what I need right now.

[@AdamPearce]

This is super relaxing. I'm steering my desk at work listening to this in the background ... saving my peanuts to not buy a couch.

[@bumblebeehald]

Now that is as close to reality sailing you can get through a KZbin vid! Raw and unpolished. This will clearly divide the Palm Beach sailors from the ocean sailors. Thanks.

[@msskimbot]

The calm and quiet in this step as compared to the full lot is artistry. Thanks so much! I felt like I was on a crossing myself.

[@ericlawrence01988]

Just power watched all of the previous videos. So glad to end it with calm ocean sounds. I love following y'alls adventure. Cant wait for to see whats next.

[@SailHosailing]

Astonished at the amount of "unlikes"! It was not too long and perfect for us to feel a little like we were on the boat. Not everyone's cup of tea, of course, but it was clear what to expect in the description. Why bother watching this kind of clip if you don't like it?

[@berndheiden7630]

Sail Ho Totally agree with you! I do hypnotherapy and I pity the people who cannot let go and be relaxed and at ease and enjoy a beautiful undisturbed record of nature! As somebody realized above this is pure Zen. And thanks Kika and Dan for not spoiling it with intro, dialogue or God forbid music. A perfect video in so many respects.

[@gro9465]

You have just shown why I fell in love with sailing as a 6yo boy, owning my first boat at 18yo a delightful but very basic Moody 29... I thororoughly enjoyed this video particularly. Sublime. Been unable to sail for 2 years for various reasons, so miss it terribly. Hope to bump into you somewhere on this wonderful planet, just to thank you in person for your constantly stunning and entertaining videos. Try to never stop what you are doing now.

[@gorodtekeli]

The sounds is stunning. Keep doing this stuff. You are best.

[@katemalkin4723]

absolutely love the choice to limit editing out the extended footage of the rise and swell, the long roll. So evocative of what it must have been like. Thanks you for NOT catering to the instant gratification and the quick fix society. Love this episode - and both of you.

[@rice0009]

Love this video. It gives a chance to put on headphones, lean back in my chair, close my eyes and imagine I'm on a ship at sea (without the motion!). Thank you for this!

[@DBartWest]

I loved it. Very different but nice. One can go back anytime and listen while doing something else, like exercise ... 🤪😎

[@johnlatimer72]

Would love to see and hear this in IMAX instead of iPad

[@escunaharmsen2365]

A soul-mending sound video! I miss the water. Locked in and and threatened every day, the sound of the sea is really a life-saver. Thank you guys, for sending this awesome piece of peace around the world.

[@telepater]

Just pure magic . . . Actually gives you a small sense of what the experience is . . . .

[@johndavidson6867]

I often spend hours just listening to mountain streams, no other sound but the water, it was nice to see the different aspects of the sounds from different parts of UMA. Thank you.

[@60trickpa]

So awesome! Relaxing but a bit scary thinking out there all you see is water in every direction. You two are amazing. THank you for sharing your life with all of us.

[@hughkeith9185]

This video brought back some memories. During our 1989 deployment to the Western Pacific the US Navy ship I was on commissioned and published a 'cruisebook', akin to a yearbook, to commemorate our deployment. It was aptly titled "Our Song Of The Sea'. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us.

[@NigelMarston]

For those who voted a thumbs down for this, you are clearly short in concentration and/or children. This isn't about storytelling - this is magnificent experience, pure and simple.

[@Tom_From_Alpharetta]

I'm binge watching this Atlantic crossing series. I was riveted to my big screen with the sound adjusted to replicate the sound of being there... Your different camera perspectives were captivating beyond description. I've always wondered what it would be like to do this... Thank you so much for filming this, sharing it with us, and teaching us so much. I'm signing up to Patreon to contribute to your noble project. Merci avec toute mon coeur.... My dad was in the US Navy in WWII. His first time on the ocean was in Operation Torch where they made this crossing with the largest naval armada ever assembled in the history of the world. He was captivated by the sea and longed his entire life to return to it... never did. You're helping pacify my wanderlust for this adventure...

[@paulhellewell8762]

I absolutely loved this video, the sounds of the sea as it bled past the UMA, the sound of the few short whispers of the wind in the shrouds and through the lines. The most amazing video parts of the UMA from the bow and the stern with nobody in the cockpit. Like she was alone going through the seas and wind. Then the duet of both of your jackets swinging in unison and stopping almost at the same time, representing how well you two work hand in glove together. Damit folks, I'm a rough, gruff Canuck truck driver and I'm not supposed to be able to spin into a romantic, gentle description of what I'm hearing and seeing...ahhhh but that statement has it's own answer....Canadian, okay. I'm going to shut up and watch and listen again. I can understand how some people would find it maddening to just listen and watch the ocean and wind, if one cannot and just as you say, do the zen thing, then they never will. Fair winds to you both.

[@joekavanagh5708]

Kika and Dan, you are artists with a video camera. Sublime editing.

[@jamescarey6559]

Simply exquisite ...sublime .....transcendent. Thank you.

[@daneatherton7886]

Academy award worth!!! The adventures of a John Ford mixed with Francis Ford Coppola and Steven Spielberg.......or not! Love you guys

[@ABeriault]

Wonderfull..the silence is magic! Really captures life at sea Cheers Godspeed

[@nateb4630]

Oh, wow. I grew up on a sailboat (in the great lakes, hello from detroit!), and this made me miss the water like nothing else ever has.

[@BigPotatoChill]

This series is my favorite thing to watch atm.

[@nathanielramos3998]

@groovetrain2010 Is this the first time you watch this channel? f you have watched them before and you do not like them, that is fine. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you have not watched them before, look at some of their other videos. The last five videos have been about taking their viewers with them along for a ride to see what an Atlantic crossing is all about.

[@daneatherton7886]

@groovetrain2010 I think grovetrain woke up on the wrong side of the tracks. Why do you care what somebody watches

[@daneatherton7886]

@groovetrain2010I dont presume to speak for Uma or M, but how dull is your life to be jealous of an exchange that you are not part of. No one asked your opinion and Why do you think yours is better than M's opinion anyway? Based on how small minded you are, I'm certain it didn't take more than a crumb of black powder to blow your mind, and there was no risk of collateral damage. BTW, any one with a user name like groovetrain should not critique any one elses judgenent

[@daneatherton7886]

@groovetrain2010 I understand why your limited intelligence would need to be "insulating" to protect it from environmental damage. Your dullness of wit is superlative

[@robwright8624]

groovetrain2010 IMO the last 5 Vids are what sailing is about , if you sailed yourself you would understand. Some of the best this Channel have shared

[@TheAtma50]

What a wonderful idea ... I'll be replaying this episode on a loop .. all the more special that I know exactly where the sounds come from !!
