[@davehine724]

You bring a tear to an old mans eyes. The inspiration you bring to people across the world is incalculable.

[@Birdii1980]

Good lord.. 100 episodes! Big thank you to everyone involved for all the fantastic hours of fun you have provided. So much fun to look back and see the journey from the place you started at and then where you are now! All the best! 😁

[@keithhallam3519]

Congratulations guy's on reaching the 100 episode milestone. Sarinda's come a long way since episode 1, here's to next 100 🥂🍾⚓🚢

[@MrOVERANOUT]

Whatever I say could never fully describe the amazing job you are doing on the rebuild of your ship project. Two years of hard graft has provided entertainment for your subscribers whilst at the same time has made such a huge difference to the boat. I love you guys and all your helpers. Keep up the good work throughout 2023 and beyond. Happy Christmas.

[@jeremyfdavies]

🎉 So happy for you. 100 episodes and look how far you’ve come and what you’ve achieved. Can’t wait to follow you on your journey for the next 100❤

[@SailingMelody]

Congratulations guys. We love you all so much and are so proud to call you our friends. Well done on 100 amazing episodes making us laugh and astonishing us with you fierce determination: Love from Andy, Melissa, Captain Jack and our new little Sprocket.

[@marcandrew777]

When you watch it like this in time lapse it just shows how much more AMAZING you guys really are and what you've achieved so far!!! Congrats on the 100 episodes, it's flown by and I always look forward to seeing the next one xx

[@thomasmixson7064]

Knowing little of sailing & MV's, I marvel watching the restoration. Such a beautiful old ship properly repaired, the friendships developed, the sweat & blood....I wonder how well she'll sail. I bet it performs exceptionally. Thx for sharing the journey!

[@howardtennant5766]

One of the biggest things you've learnt over the past 100 episode's is your choice of tools and techniques which have made your efforts far more efficient, And your decision to paint your efforts as you finish them, My best wishes go out to you

[@ShipHappensUK]

Everything looks so much better after a lick of paint

[@rongreen4766]

Great work Gemma and Simon, thank you for your humour and humility. Keep the Ship happening.

[@michaelbird3183]

Wow. 100 episodes. Congratulations and thank you so much for sharing your enjoyment and enthusiasm. The fact you have chosen to restore a really rather poorly ship of historical significance and at the same time document both your wins and fails is a massive testament to you and your family. Thinking how far you have come in these 100 episodes, it's very exciting where you will be in the next 100 episodes. Perhaps there might be some serious engine activity?????? Thank you!!!

[@jeffknapp7094]

Two of the most enjoyable You Tubers in the world. Never discouraged. Always thankful. And yes Robo deserves major props. I cant wait to see Sarinda on her way to the Normandy Beaches. I will be with you on the journey.

[@donfl3344]

Hello Friends (I call you that because I have known you for 100 videos), I just want to thank you for sharing your fantastic journey with the thousands of fans who follow your progress and admire the dedication you have. I saw what you had in store for you and, I'm sorry to say, had my doubts. But couldn't help myself, I was hooked, every bit of bad wood you came across just seem to inspire you to dig deeper. Please keep your vision alive and make sure you always take us along for this amazing journey. Cheers and may you have gentle breezes and following seas.

[@ShipHappensUK]

We are all doing this together, so you are stuck with us!!!

[@donfl3344]

@@ShipHappensUK Many thanks for your reply to my long winded note, I will do my best to hold up my end of the job by watching every video and viewing your unbelievable work ethic, your wiliness to tackle jobs for the first and getting them done and by laughing with you through the whole process. See you in the next video. Johnnie - South Carolina, USA

[@catherinewatson9234]

Congratulations 🎉 yes this is Great, Love your videos and your enthusiasm, as you restore your ship! You and your husband and children have such great chemistry! And your honey is so smart and imaginative, life is good and your journey of reconstruction of Sarinda is very imaginative. Love you all, Catherine and Tamara 💗

[@melanieronbrooks80]

I have been watching from the first episode and seeing how much progress has been made is amazing. Gemma you put the meaning in "Gem" because you are a true Gem. Cudo's to Robbo for all of his help. Looking forward to what the future holds for Sarinda and this channel.

[@robinday2392]

What a incredibly touching and beautiful video,it just shows how far you have come on your journey, and how much time,effort,money and love you have already put into the project, I raise a glass too you both and your team of volunteers x

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you so much

[@GatoLand]

My most sincere congratulations, you have managed to get a Spaniard who lives inland to become addicted to your work and your boat, with your sympathy and good work, you are an example of tenacity and enthusiasm. I wish you all the best and may the 200th episode be from the sea, on board your wonderful Sarinda. A big hug from Madrid, good job!!!

[@dlfendel2844]

Such a voyage of love! So glad to have taken it with you from the start!!! Can't WAIT to see what the next 100 will bring! Yes, we love Sarinda and the project, but most of all? Your perseverance and dedication to the project each other, your family, and friends is what makes this whole enterprise so special. Y'know, I was watching a documentary about the Armada the other evening, and tell you what: Sir Francis Drake would have been PROUD to have you among his crew! God bless this ship and all who sail with her, even if only virtually here on the channel! All the best dear Simon and Gemma. Celebrate! Congratulate! Enjoy the moment......then get back to work! (Smile) From our family in Tennessee to yours, all the love across the waves!

[@ianthorpe9652]

I am in awe at the amount of hard work you two are putting into this boat. We watch everyone of your vlogs and are so jealous , but crack on you are achieving a fantastic thing. All the best, and we hope you achieve your goals. Xx

[@DirkvanZyst]

Congratulation Gemma and Simon, you have given me so much enjoyment sharing your epic effort in restoring an historic vessel which l have always liked since a kid. I particularly love the Vosper 70 MTBs. I hope you keep going as you have to see a beautiful ship come alive again and be afloat. Love you both. Australia.

[@WimvdBrink]

Congrats on the 100st episode, great to see this .. soo much work done, always a pleasure to see you both at work and talking, you deserve all the love and help.

[@garyfairbrother5532]

You certainly have earned the admiration of all of us that you invited on the 100 visits to your dream. You are an extraordinary family and most deserving of our praise. Blessings at Christmas and always.

[@malcolmadams1051]

4.1 seconds in, tears started. I love you all. I get so emotional about what you all are doing.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Happy tears are okay! Thank you for being here xx

[@davedave6404]

Hard work pays off. Wonderful tributes and an uplifting video to watch on this cold damp December day. You mention "spare time". What bloody spare time? You seem to me to pack 28 hours into 24. How do you keep this up week in, week out. Outstanding.

[@arthyland]

100 episodes already!!! Just seems like I started watching your videos , the time has flown right by. Sarinda is looking so awesome. She's going to be a fine looking ship for sure. A happy ship. Great job Gemma & Simon and all the volunteers!!

[@williambailey5405]

I follow all the boat building channels and have followed you two from the beginning. You two fit perfectly into the the ship builders community . It's no wonder that they congratulated you.

[@nicktomlin9137]

Just amazing you 2. I knew from the start that through your enthusiasm for the project that you would make it this far. Here's to the next 100 and beyond. I've never missed 1 single episode. In fact, I went back and watched the first 15 to catch up. I'm love the channel, and you 2 are special. Keep up the great work x

[@12jsteve]

Huge congratulations on your 100th episode! You guys are a massive inspiration to everyone! In a world gone mad, watching your progress lifts the spirits and feeds the soul - many thanks. 🎉👏

[@martinbarker5045]

well done guys. I can't wait for the next 100 episodes, I always look forward to Friday nights.

[@timothyprice9083]

I'm so proud of you guys for sticking to it and reaching 100 videos! I have watched every one of them.

[@markhorrell9213]

I know how much work you've achieved,and what's likely ahead b4 sarinda is sea worthy. Kudos to your family and supporters. Absolutely Well done from Queensland Australia!

[@macbilling6410]

I've got a tear in my eye. What a wonderful occasion 100 episodes. Good luck to the next 100+ episode's

[@stevesheils6653]

Congrats on episode 100! Can't wait to see your whole family in warm, clear blue waters, and sandy beaches!

[@ShipHappensUK]

That will be the perfect day! We will get there in the end!

[@chiefairsoft8277]

I love your videos. To see people breath not only life into an old boat, but keeping a peace of world history alive for future generations. The fact that you have done so much for the boat, but the research into the history of the boat. It shows a true love and passion. Thank you for all your hard work. And for all of the people that have been there to keep the dream alive. Sincerely, Chief

[@royhowdyshell241]

Roy from the USA I have been with you two and others from almost the beginning. Love you guys and so proud of what you have done.

[@SamDeeksRelovedGuitars]

You guys are the living embodiment of perseverance - proof that life, marriages, projects... they all get better and better the longer you stick at it and put the work in. Perseverance has a true magic of its own and I love that you've tapped into it and it shows. When I first watched I didn't think that you'd be able to do this. Now I'm confident there will be a day when you do the D-Day run with your helpers and a day when Simon gets to leap into the blue water from Sarinda's roof!

[@garyaskam5418]

I love your updates and it's lovely to see this old lady coming back to life, having helped build and fit out a 60 ft barge I know the challenges you face. I also am fortunate to have shared the Queens Jubilee pageant with Sarinders sister ship HMS Medusa. I skippered my friends 85 year old Historic vessel St George. Keep up the great work.

[@tracybooth9665]

So another 300 episodes til completion? I’ll be watching every one! Love you guys and I’m thrilled you have so much support.

[@Sircraig7963]

G'day Crew, I knew you were on a winner the very first episode.. To be recognised by all your peers is a true credit to you both . Can't wait for the next 100,,, Bring it on ... RESPECT .. !!

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thanks for believing in us Craig xx

[@kimpulsipher647]

Congratulations! 100 episodes is amazing. You do wonderful work.

[@rogercurnow180]

That's a milestone! Well done Simon and Gemma! The timelapse shows such a huge difference in those 100 episodes I was amazed! Love Robbo's T shirt!

[@MrPotato-Head]

Congratulations 100 videos love watching Ship Happens. 🎉

[@Rhinexing]

What an achievement - 100 episodes! Congratulations & thank you for all of your efforts. It made me so happy to see the kind message from another one of my favorite channels... Project Brupeg!

[@graemeatkinson8411]

Without Travels with Geordie I wouldn't have Ship Happens and Aurora in my life, well done guys, I'm going to come to help next year, that's a copper nailed on promise.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Peter is awesome x

[@marksmith-ew7ir]

It been a long journey from the time you got the boat, and the love that's been put back repairs, Simon doing the heavy lifting and jem for picking up skills to push forward well done all that helping on the boat

[@heatherrawls6015]

Gosh! I had forgotten just how she looked in that bow area. You really have done the most excellent job on her. Bravo both of you. And of course everyone who has helped you in the restoration so far.

[@irishseadogoz]

Hi Guys, I can’t believe that I’ve been watching your journey for 100 episodes, Wow what a trip! Yep I been here religiously since episode one. A huge congratulations to such a beautiful family whose dedication is such a joy to watch from out here in Australia. BTW, I’m an old (3 score years & 10+) retired Ships Captain (Merchant Navy) and you brighten up my day every week, you touch my soul with your positivity and warmth. So here’s to another 100 episodes. Love you guys. ☘️

[@Alaskalad]

That is one hell of an achievement 100 episodes, keeping up the momentum of continuously going over and over the same task, but you kept on going no matter what, here's to the next 100 episodes, love to you all and your army of helpers ⚓🏴‍☠🛳 A merry Christmas to all of you and your viewers

[@geoffhaylock6848]

Very proud of the work you have done over the past 100 episodes. Your enthusiasm has not waned one bit since that very first episode. Looking forward to the next 100+ episodes. Thanks for sharing.

[@jontaylor1652]

Congrats on hitting 100 guys. It's pretty amazing how far you've brought this boat. Great job and great channel.

[@frankygdanga2999]

From the first video i seen of you guys pretty much at the start and after watching other boat builders i knew you guys would be great. Not only funny with the mundane tasks but also adapting all the new challenges you both come across every new step of the way. Most of all i love the fact that your restoring a legend as in Sarinda its history is epic and i personally am so glad her journey to restoration is in your hands, cant wait to see her back in Normandy and will watch with pride all the way. ps what a crew you have 👏👏

[@alantuttle492]

Nothing appreciated more than hard working people with determination and grit.congrats!

[@lchris2703]

Congratulations to you all! You are such an inspiration, thanks so much!

[@davidedmonds3637]

Well done you 2 . Every week I eagerly await your videos. Looking back over the 100 episodes just shows how far you’ve come along. I hope when it is finished you will carry on taking us with you on your journeys.

[@ShipHappensUK]

We sure will!

[@marcobrian1619]

You two have taken on a huge task and abig part of history. What your all doing to get this vessel back into ship shape order is mind blowing. Your not cutting corners or doing Morden shoddy repairs your going the full hog on proper restoration. Well done guys and all that have helped out. Looking forward to seeing her sail again.

[@ShipHappensUK]

No point doing it if we don't do it properly!!

[@stephenrouse2233]

I think you both should sit down and realise that without your vision, desire, efforts and knowledge, none of this would have happened. You may have started this project without knowing much but you must have researched and studied up about how to proceed with the restoration. Without your hard work there would be nothing for all of us to get behind and support. So well done to you and we look forward to seeing you complete your vision for Sarinda.

[@richardball9724]

Well said

[@stevenjohns1322]

You are doing a very worthwhile project, your boat never deserved to rot in an estuary like it was doing with all the history it has, but with you and many others are breathing new life into her and are to be commended hole heartedly, I wish I could help but unfortunately my circumstances cannot enable me to do so, all I can do is follow every episode on KZbin and wish you god speed in your adventure 💕

[@ShipHappensUK]

Just you being here means the world to us xx

[@chrishobbs236]

It is not just the boat that pulled us in it is your family and the way you interact with each other and friends it is pure joy to watch

[@shelleyregnier6671]

Thanks for including that historical section; I didn't know that is how Sarinda got her name! I would also enjoy a visual retrospective of all of Robbo's hilarious T-shirts during the past 100 episodes! 🤣Well done, guys! You deserve all the love and respect coming your way as you celebrate this milestone.♥ Looking forward to a summer solstice mud bath!

[@CanandianPeriod]

Congratulations on 100 !! I look forward to episode 200 when ML1392 is completed. Many of us Canadians wish we were closer so we could actually help.

[@dennisrobbins5451]

Congratulations on 100 episodes. You guys are simply amazing!

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thanks Dennis x

[@robs9023]

100 episodes is a fantastic feat. Congratulations! The time lapse is great and really does show that many many small steps go into the finished product. Keep up the great work and we will all keep watching!

[@TheMrShinagami]

Congratulations on the 100th Episode, Your doing a great job and I'm not surprised you have picked up so much support in the you tube boating world.

[@yifftoy]

I can't believe it is already the hundreth episode, I can't wait to see what the future holds for your family and your classic lady of a boat

[@switchedon6530]

The message you guys send out to nations is that anything is possible if we ALL stand together. Families and friends are so very important showing those we will always stand firm and strike hard in every eventuality. Incredible job guys people feed off your respect for each other along with your work ethic. Thank you for mentioning we vets, Patriotism and respect lacks considerably in the UK unfortunately. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@flyingfox7854]

WOW !!!! What an amazing achievement …. 100th episode … congratulations guys 🥃🥂🍻🍺👍

[@hamshackleton]

That time zipped by! Here's to the next 200! Watching the freeze-frame timelapse shows just how much you have achieved so far.

[@tomaldous6192]

You two and your volunteers have done such a good job of restoring the rusty rotten seventy -year- old ship, many people will thank you for saving history. Thank you. One hundred episodes I have seen them all, sometimes I do not understand your speech as I am in the United States, but I catch enough that I can follow you. Keep up the fine work.

[@bobmcdermott9535]

Well done on reaching 100 episodes. I didn’t know a thing about boats like your until I started watching.( now canal boats are a different thing ) Simon you are a great teacher, and very good at explaining things. I love the humour between you both,you have a very strong partnership! I will enter the competition and if I win it’s yours Simon.

[@ShipHappensUK]

Aww Bob you are too kind xx

[@davidsalisbury4290]

One of the most inspirational changes has been the confidence personally and in front of the camera that has grown in you both. Love the honesty of your videos. Good luck guys.

[@johankotze42]

About two years... You have come far. You have done well. Whatever the destination, your journey is great.

[@nick-c]

Congratulations on 100 episodes! It's fantastic to look back and see how far you've come!

[@russellpaci2562]

Believe or not. You are one of the BIG GUYS. There is a lot of people that watch your channel. I myself is one of them. 100 episodes. WOW. Love you guys.

[@gazgrill3700]

Congratulations on making it to 100 episodes, I've been hooked from the beginning. You have inspired me to complete some small projects of my own. I very much look forward to the next 100 episodes. Seeing your boat return to Normandy will bring a tear to my eye. A ship worth saving!

[@jimmyccam]

Congratulations 💯 What a wonderful memory of all the hard work you have done so far. Sarinda was, is, and will be, a ship to be proud of. Well done to you both and your family together with all your volunteers. Looking forward to all your future videos. Best wishes.

[@ChasingCurrents]

It's so crazy that it's already been 100 videos! Everyone has said it in the comments already, but your hard work and positivity has been inspirational to so many people! Keep going, proud of you guys and cant wait to see the rest ❤️

[@shogun666able]

I can say I have watch you two from No. 1 and will be watching No. 2000, as you bring a bit of history back to life. Congratulation on a 100 and good luck with the many more stepping forwards to come. Your kids have the classic lesson in what determination and sticking at it can get them, as you two are on your own with both. Really looking forward to your D day trip as I am sure both of you and your family will be full of even more smiles. Good luck to you and each and everyone that has helped. Emily may even want her engagement party on board so crack on.

[@ShipHappensUK]

I hope by ep 2000 we are somewhere warm with clear blue water!

[@michaelhibbert4393]

David from Cruising the Cut introduced me to your utube channel…..have followed you ever since….I really enjoy your restoration project ….you even have a impact on us people watching you….thank you

[@clivewiddall3430]

Onwards and upwards, new episodes new adventures and new skills to learn. Keep on keeping on doing what you do so well.

[@pouimette63]

Quite the achievement! CONGRATULATIONS - 100 episodes AND counting! Steady wins the race: I love your channel and productions (more importantly: the progress on Sarinda)

[@nick.caffrey]

You deserve all the plaudits you get. You work bloody hard for them. I remember the beginning, when even getting rubbish off the boat was a major undertaking, so much of it there was. And then bit by bit it became routine, you organised, simplified and just solved it. And now everything has become (mostly!) a smooth-running system. And whilst you were doing all this, you were filming and moving the channel towards 100K subscribers. This, too, shall come to pass! If Acorn to Arabella think you are special, you are!

[@robertengster5643]

Here's to 100 more. Celebrate your success And look forward to new progress.

[@looyosummers5796]

Congratulations on 💯 episodes, it really is amazing what you've taken on in this project. 🍻 I'm looking forward to watching what's to come.❤️

[@levlmoore]

Congratulations on your 100th I hope to see you for 300 more and hopefully by then the the ship will be done

[@AcornToArabella]

🎉🎉🎉What a wonderful celebration!

[@ShipHappensUK]

Thank you so much for your support and awesome message of support xx

[@jannerkev]

Well done for reaching tye 100th episode. Good have I been watching you for that long. Lol. Love your comments from fellow KZbin builders. 3 of my favourites. Acorn, project, and SV. When I commented on his site after he completed you , you replied to me saying thanks. But it wasn't needed, credit where its due. Your amazing channel is something to look forward to. Xxx

[@Georgio80AU]

Congratulations on 100 episodes guys. I’ve watched every episode from the beginning and have enjoyed every minute. You offer inspiration for projects that we all seem to take on. The give-it-a-go can-do attitude is both positive and constructive, with clear end results. I can’t wait to see what you do over the next 100, and hope that I can one day get over to the UK and take a ride on Sarinda in person. Keep up the great work 🎉

[@MarcelEling]

Goodjob, well done. And not only for the boatrestauration.

[@geebopbaluba1591]

What a wonderful video of the time lapse of the restoration of such a historic boat just left to rot and y’all are bringing her back.

[@loishope6605]

Simon, Jemma I have NO DOUBT that you will not finish. I watch a couple here in the US and they have spent their lives building homes. Just think what your children are witnessing! Mother and father working for a common goal, your daughter is even working on her own boat. Keep going

[@supernewt]

Loved the flash back video on how far you have come in 100 episodes, being an ex-wooden boat owner that has a history I know where you're coming from. Well done and hope to meet up with you possible next year, which aint far away. Take care and love to your kids who are putting up with all this.
