FISH OUT OF WATER

[@johnholloway6382]

others have said it in various ways but i feel i must say it too. this is the best sailing video production on youtube, technically and artistically. the script is poetry. all the best captain olivia.

[@wildernessofwaves]

I cannot thank you enough for this comment. It takes me a long time to craft a video for youtube and sometimes I feel like giving up, but your comment has helped stoke the fire to keep me going! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@nickrolandwolf]

You are a really tough lady. Chapeau. I wish you a lot of luck and happiness with Juniper. And always at least a handwidth water beneath your keel. You are living the life I‘m dreamin‘ of, I‘m not able to. Take good care. Aloha. Yours Nick.

[@MudChips]

You are an artist and a poet!

Took a chance & clicked on this while soaking in the bath anddd so glad I did! This is ittt! Absolutely captured the epic grind, rad randomness and boaty vibes of life on the hard! We spent a few weeks in a similar world earlier this year. Very much adore & appreciate your artistic energy and creative spirit. I watched your others and now I'm hooked. Keep em comin fellow sea gypseyy -A

@@wildernessofwaves I could see the work you put in, the thought and art, a little film in it's own right.

[@ashley-tm1uk]

so good to hear from you Olivia! The boat i’m picking up is going to belong to a friend who is a novice at sailing… should be interesting since i’ve never sailed a performance cat…im not concerned because i’ll be conservative until i get comfortable with her….can’t wait to let ‘er rip when the time comes… im going to wind up with a boat a lot like yours…tayana 37, young sun 35, …baba 35…i don’t need or want any more than that…i think the 37 is the boat in the end… i still love you olivia! xo

[@kenoath007]

The first vid of yours I watched (after seeing you with Holly) was your boat tour. Really beautiful boat, was shocked at the amount of work it needed! Thank you for the beautiful share!

[@wildernessofwaves]

Well it sat empty for ten years then I bought it and sailed it across the pacific to Hawaii, so this was all the work it needed after that crossing

[@kenoath007]

​@@wildernessofwaves I have been doing a lot of searching and research for my perfect boat for my budget and intended use. I already had planned to get a thorough survey of any potential purchase . I so appreciate your experience shared!

[@sergeidolbin2775]

What a beautiful spirit, creativity and energy that swings in all directions. Your vibe is so memorable to, I'm sure everyone you've met. Fair winds in Love ⛵️

[@wildernessofwaves]

Welcome aboard! Thank you for watching!

[@SailingNV]

Best boat yard vid eva 🤙

[@wildernessofwaves]

Only because your genius mind watched it a thousand times and gave notes 😘

[@mjcooke2sailingmostly]

You tell a good story. You must be looking back now one to two years but the time with all the good people there will always be with you.

[@wildernessofwaves]

Thank you so much for watching! It’s so fun to go back and edit all of this and remember the amazing people I’ve met along my journey! With the videos I’ll catch up to where I am on the water one day soon I hope!

[@davethemmp]

Great boat work skills 😊

[@daveg4963]

You're pretty darn groovy!

[@SailWithGreg]

Awesome video! Being in the boatyard sucks and honestly just the thought of watching a video about being in the boatyard would suck too but you made it fun to watch! 😜

[@wildernessofwaves]

Awe thank you so much for watching!

[@wildernessofwaves]

P.S hope you are doing well!

[@flunitrazepam]

[@paddymotion1]

@@wildernessofwaves of course, hopefully on the water tomorrow again. Just moved back to the sea 😁

[@saylaveenadmearedead]

I can only pray that hauling out will be 1/2 as fun!!! AS YOU MAKE THINGS....

[@wildernessofwaves]

It will be so much fun! Wishing you good luck on your repairs!

[@SeattleLifeguard]

Yes, Ala Wai is super sketch...that's why I live aboard at Ko Olina! :)

Life is simple, see yourself as God sees you, not how you would like to be seen, happiness does not depend on circumstances, but on your attitude, every day. Dont'n worry, be happy🎉

[@ashley-tm1uk]

Olivia!…great that you are sharing your beautiful presence ( presents ) again… what happened to your Baba 35? no need to respond …i’ll be catching up with you regularly! I hope our paths cross one day…i think you’re incredible!…heading to the Caribbean any time soon?…i’ll be sailing a seawind 1000xl…picking it up next week in sarasota, and sailing her back to new orleans home port for outfitting ….xo

[@wildernessofwaves]

Hi. I never had a baba 35, I have a panda 34. That is the little sister to the baba :)

[@wildernessofwaves]

Ps- congrats on your new boat!

[@singlehandsailor]

Boatyard life! Kind of like being in the jailhouse. Got to do the time in order to get ones freedom.

[@RippleSmith_Sailing]

You have all the various aspects of my favorite sailing channels; incredible scenery, boat projects, a sexy monohull, adventure, and… a beautiful woman! 😁 What really sets you apart for me, what I really love about your KZbin vids, is your writing in the voiceovers. Please keep these vids coming!!

[@wildernessofwaves]

Awe yay! Thank you so much! I will definitely keep creating!

[@sailinggreenpearl2571]

No point moaning about boat work, it just gotta be done.

[@rosiegreddogyachts4135]

OK Olivia… I give up. If you want to rebuild Juniper you have what it will take. Get her into a yard with access to decent materials and equipment supplies (not Apitaki ;), hire some low cost labor (like Malaysia or Thailand) do the hull deck and the rest. Rebed everything, hoes it hard to find the persistent leaks, then sail around the Cape to UK. By the time you get there, you will know how to celestial nav, and be halfway tested for round the world. GoGirlRockin’. I never saw this until now. Changed my whole picture of you. You have what it takes.
