Well, hello everyone, slowly we are getting back with our vlogs. We have done a lot and you wouldn't believe it but we - or better said Gerben - managed to do a DIY installation of our WEBASTO heating system. YESSSS not boat yard - not what we normally do, but this shows that most of us can install a system like this 😎 Thanks for joining us again, next week winter sailing (yes we know it is spring and everyone enjoys the white beaches and turquoise warm weather sailing, but it is the first time sailing with Eleanora - a special one) Love, Rianne PS For the special podcast we recorded, follow this link: bit.ly/3p1TAWn ----- Little background of the podcast episode: Ever wondered how life would be as a start-up founder? Or more importantly how you make the impossible possible? You get a glimpse in our most recent podcast episode. Join me in an interview of Gerben about his start-endeavor of buying out seed investors and making a deal that was well challenging. To be honest challenging is a huge understatement. Gerben needed to raise 1.2 mio in just 6 months. If you are an entrepreneur or thinking about stepping into the entrepreneurial arena, big or small, this is a must-listen! And if you think why is this if any importance to me? Well this podcast is about so much more then buying out seed investors. It is about having a mindset to make the impossible possible, and that mindset is one anyone can use. As we all have desires or dreams that we maybe not dare to dream, but what if we did, and what if we were 10x more courageous, and what if we had a mindset that we just had absolute certainty that we would be able to do it, even though we had no clue about the how? That is what this podcast episode in essence is about. Plus we touch upon the investor scene, masculine energy, ego-driven negotiations, and emotional maturity.

Could you share the installation project ? A PDF. Thanks.

[@williambunting803]

I agree with your choice. The one tip that I can give you is, if your are installing the heater unit in a small area, use the heater air intake to cool the space where the heater itself is. I have 2 mufflers in a row on my Eberspacher (same) type of system keeps noise down. Also the water hoses from and to the unit should be isolated from the hull by suspending with rubber. The reason is that the hydraulic noise created by the coolant circulation pump transmit noise to the boat hull.

[@jentaly]

Installation for Dummies! Love it. I would've just cried! But you know me - I would have started at the beginning and kept going, tears and all. I am SO very happy you are back on the Tube, and it is such a delight to see Eleanora's face and how Benjamin is growing. Keep on keeping on. Sending love and sunshine. xxx

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Love it dear Jenny, warm and cosy inside. Much love from all of us 😍

[@waltervanderboor]

I thought let’s check out your podcast. I normally don’t like the podcast set up but then listening for 10 minutes wouldn’t hurt. #008 all the way to the end .. so much to recognise. Great I can advice anyone with little business experience to listen and consider.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thanks Walter for the beautiful words and recommendations, have a great day and hope it didn’t hurt that much 😍

[@SailingStormvogel]

Yes! They are back! ⛵️😎👌

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Hahaha yes we are, sorry for keeping you waiting 😍

[@miketcq8]

Nice to see you and the family back on the boat. Congrats on the new crew member Eleanora.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thank you dear Michael

[@lentongrovetrust5201]

So good to see you back on the boat, trust the family are all well.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Yes, it’s great to be back onboard, family is doing well given the circumstances

[@barryholiday8998]

Congrats on installing the heater. That was quite a task. Now the planning for Patagonia. It would give me heart palpitations. 😆👏

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Yes quite a task but very fun to do and always good to know all the details of a new system onboard so when things go wrong you understand the systems, especially in remote places like Patagonia 😂

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Hi you guys glad to see you are back and on the water again. Boy have those little dudes grown. 😊

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Hahaha big time, they grow every day in a blink of an eye

[@craigmartin8326]

It's good to see you guys back.

[@steveed1834]

[@ambassadorlight3146]

Thanks for the update and installation instructions! Happy to see the beautiful addition to the family🤠

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Love it! Thanks for watching and following our adventures

[@Antiaudits]

I installed one our boat a few years ago for our trip to the arctic coming up next year its was rather simple .good luck

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Great, the moment you know it’s indeed simple, was very fun and insightful to install it ourselves. Wish to all the best with trip to the arctics 😍

[@user-gv1lb9tb4f]

Bonjours vous quatre. Très heureux de vous retrouver. Votre projet de voyage en Patagonie est magnifique et le choix du système de chauffage Webasto est judicieux. Je connais très bien ce système pour l'avoir utilisé pendant des années ( j'étais routier international ) c'est un système très efficasse et très fiable. Bonne continuation. Amitiés du sud de la France. Olivier.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Dear Oliver, thank you for your beautiful message and welcome onboard, our plan to sail to Patagonia is indeed magnificent and preparation is key, glad to hear your experiences with Webasto. Much love from us and have an amazing day.

[@celinemercantini5037]

Happy to see you all in good shape and confortable on board ✨️

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thank you dear Celine, we are very comfortable aboard, completely changed our way of living aboard.

[@markwoods1504]

Just had a baby and now off to Patagonia you two are brave, are you going to New York on you're way for your life's dream ? If you get time go to the Falkland Islands and let Benjamin see the Rockhopper Penquinn's he'll love them and have a British pint in the Victory Pub there's usually some Royal Marines in there off duty of course. During WW2 my late Grandfather was in the Famed British Army Commandos he worked with the Free Dutch Commandos so you may as well have a drink with the modern day equivalent.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Patagonia, New York, Falkland Islands are all on the list for us and the Perfect Sense 😍

[@brentgordon8769]

Hay nice to see you back Breeze Family Great Video!!!From Brent Gordon of Canada.😃⛵⛵⛵⛵

I was wondering and checking often in hopes your adventure would continue. Happy to see four adventurers! Carry on! - Breezer

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Dear Don, thank you so much, yes we had kind of an unscheduled social break and happy to be back, now with the four of us and some changes in future plans but you will see in the next episode soon ;)

[@BohemianBeatster]

Groovy video. Nice to see you guys back - WITH A NEW BABY - CONGRATS.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thank you, yes we extended the family a bit, more deckhands 😂

[@bobbiejay2085]

Walked past Perfect Sense the other day :) She's beautiful. I'm back on track now. Great to see you have heat 🔥 and moving along with your preparations to sail south. Both your babes are looking gorgeous. Hope to catch you soon 😊

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Hi Bobby Jay, how cool, when do we meet? 😍

[@bobbiejay2085]

@@FeeltheBreeze ... just let me know when you're next at the marina. I'm possibly leaving mid to end of May for a month or two. I'll message Rianne now.

[@eborgelin1]

Congrats on finally getting that diesel heater upgrade sorted! A very natural option up here in the Baltic sea. Now let's hope the batteries can take it (or that the genset is up for it) :-)

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Yesss, the batteries are handling it very well

[@sailingjano]

Nice to be back. Eindelijk terug van weg geweest👍👍👌👌 we krijgen het er warm van 🤪🤪

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Hahaha mooi zo… duikje in het koude water?

[@user-om8jz8xr6s]

Ben has gotten so tall since I last saw your channel 😀.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

He is, he mad some jumps to become a real big brother 😍

[@TheShavrotin]

teşekkürler.

[@erikdehaan1267]

We hebben allemaal warmte nodig of het nou van een kachel, zon of familie en vrienden komt we need it. 💋💋👊👊

[@FeeltheBreeze]

De mooiste warmte is vanuit het hart Erik, liefs van ons allemaal. 😍

[@HansLuchies-nz6ms]

Webasto; goed spul👌

[@FeeltheBreeze]

O nie

[@jimlofts5433]

get a CO meter for safety - the heater hot air pipe can rust and leak and on a fault the CO and smoke can also come out of the heater inlet air pipe - also when running properly they produce very little CO and burn with little smoke - smoke means incomplete combustion due to excess fuel or carbon blocking the burn chamber etc - I am sure webasto advises running it on high for 15-20 minutes before turning off to burn off any carbon - well done

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thanks Jim for the great advice. We installed some CO alarms and run the heater as advised by Webasto to avoid any problems.

[@waltervanderboor]

Great decision we have one although slightly different from yours but with -20 outside we kept the temp easily at +20 inside. It’s a great way of heating but consider extra isolation inside cabinets. We actually put isolation and carpet on our floor. ( which we threw out in the tropics)

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thanks, yes the next step will be isolating, how did you isolate the cabins? Seems you had an amazing trip from -20 to the tropics 😍

[@BillyNewport-ez2vn]

Make sure you can remove and reinstall it easily. You need to clean the burner every 1500 hours or so or else the burner cokes up and that gets expensive.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thanks voor the insights, will do

[@JosePedroEspinosa]

¿Patagonia? ¿Chile and Argentina? You will enjoy the most beautiful land in the world.

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Yes, we can't wait, any experience?

[@JosePedroEspinosa]

@@FeeltheBreeze I am Chilean, I normally sail south of Puerto Montt. It is by far the most beautiful area in Chile. You can only navigate in summer. The extreme south (South of the Gulf of Penas) even in summer is hard navigation, with many storms, in that area you have to take 4 long ropes that float to moor the boat to the trees or rocks on the shore, you need 4 , one for each corner of the boat. It is not uncommon to have them wait a week or so waiting for the storm to end. Any questions you have let me know.

[@SADIK19631963]

👍🧿

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Thank you 😍

[@emilioplentz]

The heating doesn't causes condensation inside the boat ?

[@FeeltheBreeze]

No, not at all since it’s dry air coming from the radiators

[@leesydneyharry7958]

Where’s Patagonia?

[@FeeltheBreeze]

Google is your best friend, oh noo Chat Gpt ;)

[@giulianopasseri6626]

Better not filming while driving, not safe for you and the others in and out the vehicle
