Heaven and Hell - Sailing A B Sea (Ep.217)

In this episode of Sailing A B Sea we celebrate another trip around the sun for Aannsha and get to see a cool new watercraft designed to clean up rubbish in the water.
Also Baz gives a breakdown of his UK work experiences, while Aannsha sits back and relaxes in the sun with friends. There's a difference between heaven and hell.

I have enjoyed following your channel from the beginning. Thank you for posting all of your inspiring videos. I hope you are doing well.

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you so much!

[@alanlovesmusic6442]

We're sad to have learned you're back on land again. Please keep us all updated from time to time. Best to you! Kirsten and I have really enjoyed your adventures and videos. I think the Med. will miss you too!

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you so much Alan. 👍

[@murrayspiffy2815]

I can't imagine how hard it was for you Baz - to go back to work - mentally - and physically. At the same time - you look and sound much healthier than you did a year ago. It's quite evident though - at least from Aannsha's editing - you're holding her back. Five Star hotels - wine - swimming pools - she had it all. Happy birthday again. Glad to have you back Baz...

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) Hahahahaha I'm definitely holding her back from the life she deserves. 😂

[@murrayspiffy2815]

@@SailingABSea - seriously - I admire your tenacity and your taking one for the team - I stopped working during Covid - and I would not enjoy having to jump back into the workforce. It's in the news about Turkey's runaway currency deflation - I hope that helps you stretch your money on the conversion. I hope your reunion was as good as you "hoped" it would be.

[@benrandomly2016]

I'm happy to see this video and know you both are doing well. Really happy to hear Barry's health has improved. Stay well and stay safe over there.

[@SailingABSea]

All is good in Turkey Ben, so long as we don't look at the inflation. 😂

[@user-pf5xq3lq8i]

Miss your adventures every Saturday mornings. Hope you are settling into land life ok.

[@SailingABSea]

Yes we are. Episode 218 is released tomorrow. 👍

[@alwaysinsideout]

So glad your feeling great. It is very noticeable, you are feeling better with yourself.👍

[@SailingABSea]

Yes! Thank you!

[@petyrkowalski9887]

Great work Baz and welcome back! I worked for about 18 months in an iron foundry and aluminium smelting plant so I know what you are talking about. Fantastic to hear your health has improved.

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) Thanks Petyr. 👍

[@stevebrunning3432]

Great to see you back and everything is finally settling down. As they say onwards and upwards

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) Cheers Steve. 👍

[@windwaterandSandra572]

I have very much respect for you Baz.

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you. 👍

[@jayschafer5385]

Just wondering how you two are doing? Where you are? New plans/lifestyle? We miss you vids and following your sailing journey. But, things change and new adventures beckon. Best to you both. Jay and Susan

[@SailingABSea]

An update video will be coming in the new year. We are settling back into life in Australia. 👍

[@bayanicustodio3998]

Thanks for sharing your onboard life with us.

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you so much Bayani. 😀

[@mariusgrobler4235]

Reading the comments below, it appears as if you sold ABSea and you back in Oz. Well thanks for sharing your journey with us over the years, I really enjoying checking in and seeing what you guys are up to. That said boat life is not easy and the jobs never-ending... So what about a 'final' video to wrap up your journey over the years, the good, the bad etc? It would also be great to hear whats next on your radar? Keep well and I wish you great health and happiness :-) Ps: A last comment....you guys are super brave and did more than the large majority of us that watched you over the years...well done!

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you for your kind words Marius. Episode 218 is out tomorrow and we also have a final episode 219 on the way. 👍

Thank you! You too!

[@donnaber4918]

Something satisfying about hearing bugs getting zapped.

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) For sure, I love laying in bed and hearing the zit sounds. 👍

[@nick.caffrey]

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) She brushes up pretty good. 😆

[@garyhopkins7705]

Morning Baz, I’ve just come home from a week in Tenerife. First time back since 1992 and a lot has changed. I revisited the Veronicas bars and clubs complex to reminisce which was fun. Do I recall you once Dj’d there?

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) Hi Gary, yes I was a DJ in Tenerife from 1986 to 1996. Then I moved to Australia. Great memories.

[@nooneanybodyknows1321]

Baz, nice to have you back. It is my belief that if more people experience hard work we would be a healthier bunch. My grandfather always said there isn't anything hard work won't cure. I've worked 16's and know the drill. I ended up with Mortons Neuroma from wearing steel-toed boots with swollen feet. I've gone to wearing footwear with a wider toe box. Anything to increase circulation in your toes will help you recover your feeling. The aquatic Roomba looks gimmicky. I'm skeptical. Happy belated birthday Aannsha. I hope to see and hear more about your adventures.

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) Aquatic Roomba. 😂 After we filmed it I did say to Aannsha that it would be quicker for the marinero to zoom around in the dinghy and scoop up the floating rubbish by hand.

[@TurgutKalfaoglu]

Glad to see you back! And happy birthday!

[@SailingABSea]

Thank you so much 😀

[@TurgutKalfaoglu]

Btw are you alright we haven't seen a video from you in a long time..😢

[@jorgeconcheyro]

I knew you sold the boat and went back to AU. Hope you are doing well, my regards to you guys!!!!

[@SailingABSea]

Hi Jorge, update videos coming soon.

[@bayanicustodio3998]

Your description of your work safety boot reminds me of a lineman’s boots. BTW wiring work only gets easier with practice…. Belated Birthday.

[@SailingABSea]

Very true!

[@6969allgood]

Another great vid :-)

[@SailingABSea]

Glad you enjoyed it mate.

[@richardg7758]

Where are you guys hiding?…..happy new year!

[@SailingABSea]

We're back in Australia. Two more videos to come to end our 5 year story.

[@richardg7758]

Look forward to the up and coming videos……I hope its not the end of your youtube contributions.🙏🏻

[@user-pf5xq3lq8i]

Deep sleep is essential to mental health. Working a 12 hour shift would make you sleep very deeply ;)

[@markrodger276]

Hi Baz, I know what you went through with the boots. After spending so much time barefoot on the boat when I went back to work I found that my feet were wider, so had to buy my own wide fitting boots

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) it's a really weird sensation knowing that your toes are there, but not feeling they are there.

[@markrodger276]

If you can't feel your toes, might be worth a trip to the doc, could be a sign of diabetes

[@SailingABSea]

Bugger, that's concerning.

[@markrodger276]

Seriously Baz I am not one for scare mongering or giving unwanted advice nor medically qualified but I had a friend years ago who had similar symptoms and it turned out he had diabetes. Worth a checking out mate, sorry I don't mean to over step the mark

[@Div3r]

The mind can be a wonderful thing but can also be our worst enemy. Not wanting to make light of your feeling but I wonder if when you were back in blighty you were too busy to dwell on things and that helped alleviate some of your symptoms. I too have had unwelcome visits from "the black dog".

[@SailingABSea]

(Baz) The black dog has left the building. It feels great to have my mind back. 👍

[@bellullabob]

Did I see correctly that you guys are selling the boat? Will you cover that in the next episode? Hope all is well...

[@bellullabob]

Never mind. Followed the link on FB and read your post. Sorry to see the journey come to an end. It was fun following you guys and wishing you good new horizons.

[@mralanvideo]

I've followed you from the beginning shame you had to go back to work just think if you worked half as hard improving your youtube profile life could be so much sweater time for a rethink I really loved your adventures time to bring them back

[@SailingABSea]

Do you have any useful tips on how to improve a KZbin profile?

[@liamwhelan57]

Baz, few viewers would possibly realise the amount of work and indeed time it takes to produce these weekly KZbin videos or how difficult it is to make much money from them. Being a sailing channel and located in mainly one country must make it very difficult to come up with fresh, interesting content to improve your KZbin profile. Your health is your wealth so I sincerely hope you can find a way to make it all work for you both and I wish you health and happiness.😀

[@mralanvideo]

Look at all your past videos find the ones with the most hits then try to work out why but I think you know as well as me it's drama , solving problems ,adventure and top of the list sex you know what I mean hope this helps

[@SailingABSea]

@Liam Whelan thank you.

[@leehuxford8252]

When your next video

[@SailingABSea]

Once we have moved into our apartment and bought everything we need to make life livable, we will begin editing our next episode. Maybe 3 or 4 weeks.

[@sarascott2217]

They have something similar in the Bangor marina northern ireland what happens to all your patrons and subscribers now you selling up

[@SailingABSea]

The KZbin channel will stay up, we think it's a valuable resource for those considering this lifestyle. Our patrons only get charged when we put out a video, so if we don't make any videos they won't be charged.
