Most people can't drop everything, go buy a busted boat and try to figure it out as you go. GOOD LUCK to those that can. That's a Big Money Game. For the rest of us , it's just a dream.

[@mattgraham1983]

Of course you can. You and your beliefs are the only limitation

[@ParlayRevival]

I saved for 10 years to buy a hurricane damaged cat. Thats doable for your average motivated person.

[@stellarluna2637]

@@ParlayRevival yes but you had a solid base of knowledge to start with, most people will spend tens of thousands to pay others to do it and in the end probably could have bought a better more reliable boat in the end and be sailing it instead of sucking in dust.

[@RiverWoods111]

@@stellarluna2637 Not if your motivated and willing to learn. You can do it too!

[@Daybreakadventures]

@@ParlayRevival that's is what I think is exciting the escape from the normal 9-5 life. I agree anyone could do it out 9-5 you make choices that allow you to live. Only difference is the choices your gonna make to escape and sail are different still life choices none the less. A change in mindset or surroundings and people that give you the boost of confidence to make the choice maybe is needed!

[@Alltakenbla]

This is the future of reality TV that most get so wrong. A straight shooter with a decent sense of morality. Good on you Colin.

[@wildaltarose]

I am not surprised at your reception at the boat show. You have a positive and honest demeanour that would be well appreciated. I noticed a change in your voice right away. I am not surprised that after all the people you met and talked to. I was excited that you were given a new anchor, can’t wait to see how it works for you. You pups will be so happy to see you back home, and I hope Parlay can get back in the water again.

[@ParlayRevival]

We are very close!!!!

I bought a Seawater Pro about a year ago and I have to say that Mike's customer service is off the chart! Amazingly cool guy, and the product is fantastic!!

[@paulhellewell9468]

You give out all your COMPLETE directions on Parley's repairs and you hear the replies here in the comments but I'm happy to see your reaction to all those who came out to meet you at the boat show. It's what you and Jamie did when you filmed every boost along with every let down while doing a mountain of repairs and staying positive throughout it all. You deserve the respect you get Collin. Have stay positive and safe.

[@faircompetition1203]

I like Mike - need more guys like him and we need more people to suport makers that build stuff to last and be serviced

[@ParlayRevival]

Mike is a legend. Lets me borrow his car every time i'm town, offers us a bed, lets me store my stuff in his warehouse, and this was all before we even cracked 50k subscribers.

[@faircompetition1203]

@@ParlayRevival I am Soooo tired of crap not built to last and you would swear they intentionally made difficult to repair , plus parts hard to get . All so you have to buy new instead of repairing , and that is really bad for the planet .

[@sailingsolo5290]

Nice one

[@marcryvon]

A rarity in this new world of cheap throwaway stuff. And you're not the only one being fed up of stuff made difficult to repair, or parts impossible to get. Ex: My neighbors redid their kitchen 18 months ago with all new appliances. She called me yesterday to ask if I could have some spare space in my 35 y.o. fridge. "??" Their almost new, 4K$ LG fridge broke down. They checked the warranty : One, yes, 1 year warrantee ! 😳 The problem is, people get used to be hacked by big box retailers. And they buy and buy again the same garbage. And it's the same sh..t wiith whatever brand. Madening.

[@sailingsolo5290]

@@marcryvon try 12v refrigeration costs. I am on my 6th 2,000.00 supper small supper cold machine. They last 3 years average if you live on the boat full time So huge cost for a miniature refrige.

Dude: You're that idiot that rebuilt that boat and shouldn't have, right? Collin: Nah, nah....you're thinking about that other guy with the boat beside mine. Just kidding David, you're killing it man ;-) Collin bud, you look like you had more than twice the legal limit of fun and made quite a few pretty friends out there. The voice will recover but those memories are forever ;-D

[@taylorfam0]

Woohoo thanks to you my wife and I are now internet famous! Was great to meet everyone at the show! Keep up the great work and continued humility which, I believe, makes your channel so popular! Can't wait to follow in your footsteps someday! Kia ora!

[@romanaroun]

Thanks Collin for helping me live the dream!!!!! And to all the parlays crew! CHEERS🍸!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Cheers mate!

[@PontoonPilot]

I remember when everyone was telling me I was nuts at 30 years old, divorced with 2 little girls to support, to drop my dead end career and chase my dream of becoming a Medevac Helicopter Pilot... it wasnt 5 years later an I was fully and quite gainfully employed as a full time pilot... Fast forward to now... 13 yrs later... and cant even imaging doing anything else (well, besides nose diving into a beautiful Cat rebuild, and sailing the world as well) but well worth the effort and chance!!!! keep pushing that positivity Collin! love it!

[@BillySargent]

Your humility and honest demeanor in dealing with the public, is a testament to you character. It is no wonder that you would receive such a warm reception. Congratulations on your potential sponsorship, and hopefully you will continue to provide an honest appraisal of the products that are offered. I am an old geezer who has owned only one boat in his LIFE. I bought it because my wife and I were guests (and married) on it in Victoria B.C. Moored at Roche Harbor, on San Juan Island. The CARVER (ancient) Mariner was an early 80's power boat (twin 351 Windsor-Ford V8) that was an absolute $$$ vacuum. And mooring fees were back breaking as well...so alas, she is gone. But if I were 40 years younger, I would probably insist that Annie and I at least entertain the thought of what you are endeavoring to do. But your weekly KZbin adventures give me vicarious enjoyment. Best wishes Mate, to you and all you host and meet in you journey.

[@ParlayRevival]

Cheers for the comment! Im happy you can live vicariously a little! But its never too late to get back out there...

[@ian-c.01]

I don't envy you going to the boat show and being swamped with questions from so many people, for me that would be very difficult ! I love the boat life and enjoy the rebuilding and re-engineering etc but I'm not great with too many people or too much attention. Even running a KZbin channel and trying to make regular uploads would become very tiring very quickly, there's only so many things that I want to put online but I respect you for what you are doing man !

[@ParlayRevival]

It was very tiring but also extremely motivating man. Each to their own I say!

[@glendacarterbennett912]

So love all the videos, but seeing all the fans/sailors at the boat show was tops! Stay safe and grateful!!

Okay. All caught up. Some epic progress and adventurous to be sure. I'm glad lagoon is stepping up to the plate.

hubby and I attended the Annapolis Boat Show years ago when we owned a 26 ft SeaRay motor boat. and worked in D.C We tried to go aboard as many boats as possible. Met a guy who sailed (?) around the world in a Zodiac. I bought the shirt off his back because he had no more left. His trip was to recognize nonprofit for clean the earth or something like that. Fun time.

Thanks so much for another great video. We're waiting for our deal to close on a Moorings 48 Leopard. I am anticipating all the work that will have to be done to get the boat up to snuff. It's one of those deals where if maybe you knew all the work and challenges coming your way, you would just say no... we're not that smart! So thanks for the inspiration. We're going to follow your work ethic and philosophy... and do our best! Your recommendations are invaluable. Already saved us $7000 on a watermaker! Be sure to let us know how that anchor works out. That'll be another one of our first purchases for the boat! Thank you again!

..... so much in this video .. is the easiest way to sum up .... we have always known that Colin is a people person and here that realization was taken to another level, he thrives on being with people and hearing them .... thx for taking us along Colin .... an economical water-maker, how sweet is that .. think that anchor is going to be ace, just a hunch. Quite the box it comes in. .... as always .. never stop dreaming, just dream bigger .. have fun be safe, save our oceans ...

Hi Guys. Great video. The Ultra is phenomenal! We upgraded in the summer. 21Kg Ultra. We dont do sponsorship, we like you tell it how it is. Good or bad! The Ultra is miles ahead.

When your boat is your home you will be glad you went with the Ultra! Sail Safe Guys, Ant, Cid & the pooch crew.

[@beverslayer]

I binged watched every episode. Used to build 50m and bigger super yachts. You and your neighbors cats have beams Not sitting in their pockets where the glue failed and/or gaps in the glue. I would glass it to the pocket and the bulkhead. Every time the beam moves up your hull moves in. Every time the beam dips down the hull moves out. This creates an accordion effect and helps flex the glass (bad) and eventually vibrate it apart over time.

[@ParlayRevival]

What shipyard? We did a 55m Heesen a few years back...

[@beverslayer]

@@ParlayRevival Westports 50 meter yard in Port Angeles WA. Then I worked for Delta over in Seattle.

[@beverslayer]

@@ParlayRevival I was the structural framing lead at Westport. I built the boats. Beams, set tanks, bulkheads, soles, stacked the super structure, all exterior hardware ect. All the rough construction then finish the outside, then repeat for years.

[@beverslayer]

@@ParlayRevival weird question that will scratch my curiosity itch....the bulkheads that broke, on the out side smaller sandwich pieces....what was the angle of the cut? More than 45 makes it harder the glass. Less than a 45 degree angle is easier to glass. And can you tell if that piece had a radius on it or is it just an angled jig saw/ban saw cut. I have a feeling it's just a cut. Not been rounded over, creating weak glass bond...on top of not carrying the load correctly.

Perfect and so good to see you having a good time and getting to meet your fans/patreons to put faces to names. Wish I could have been there but age and finances are an issue. I really loved the message at the end as it was 100% true. Anyone can do this who's health will allow it, age doesn't really matter nor does physical conditioning to a point. Thank you Colin for keeping the dream alive and it helps me as I work towards being able to live my dream someday. Physically I'm getting there and when the day comes I will jump in with both feet because what's the worst that could happen. I fail, well that just means I get another chance to do it right... By the way both the Water Maker and the man behind it as well as that anchor caught my eye and will definitely be on whatever vessel I end up with... Fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless.
