[@gomigman5936]

Lucky guy to have such a gorgeous companion with such an easy-going personality who loves to sail, and she doesn't mind roughing it out going 10 days without a shower!! Hope you had a safe crossing of the ocean back to Australia. That's no joke of a trip.

[@hommie789]

This is awesome, I met these two at Maple Bay Marina, had a good conversation while they were anchored here. They are just as nice in person as in this video. Good luck guys hope you have nothing but great weather, seas and travels.

[@ronprince1478]

Everyone gets to die but only some get to live. Good luck guys.THANKS

[@j.me.0311]

Such an incredibly bright dude and happy spirited girl. Thanks for taking a little extra time to explain things clearly with background information. I wish you two many blessings!

[@hydrangeaism]

...."spirited"! So evident and refreshing to witness! Good call.

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

Cheers to you John :-)

[@SailBeforeSunset]

Really charming couple. Full of life and personality.

[@hydrangeaism]

Agree! Inspiration for sure!

[@ccjohncc1]

I was thinking the same thing. Also a bit jealous because I want a woman like her to wake up to every day. 😍😎

[@robertrusso5592]

Her energy is awesome

[@CheekyMonkey1776]

What a joy this Eyrin is, Simon is a lucky guy to have her aboard. I envy both of them taking on this adventure. As a retired sailor (due to disability), I must confirm Eyrin’s pleasure of being rocked to sleep by the waves, there is nothing like it on land and it’s something I truly miss. Bless them both, I pray for their safety and fair winds and weather.

its so nice, a father and daughter taking a sailing trip. good father.

[@flower2364]

Nothing but admiration for these two...good luck...enjoy your trips.

[@MidnightAmratha]

Those two really complement each other.

[@wordswritteninred7171]

Simply wonderful to see people with amazing amounts of passion on life and wanting to cruise the 🌍

[@SVELFARO]

So good to see them again, they were in my marine store in Vancouver quite often.

[@mynhardtsaayman1]

The more I watch this couple the more I like the rawness you might call realness, the memories they are going to make money cannot buy. Goodluck you guys and have fun and grow .

[@joejoe2928]

VETERAN STORNOWAY ISLE OF LEWIS , "I love your boat ,im a sailor ,62 years old ,but now disabled so having to sell my 15 foot kirie sailboat ," but I still dream of sailing the oceans ..So I will enjoy following your journey on the ocean wave.. Good Fortune and a fair wind in your sails ,I respect you so much for giving this wooden sailboat a new life on the ocean lots of work but so worth it as a sailing craft like this will look after you and looks very forgiving...😇😮O

[@captlarry-3525]

I just cannot watch one more ( of the 100's) of Blind Leading The Blind Videos made by clueless souls who think a boat is like a car.. you just buy one and go. Everybody starts from zero and works up.. but everybody doesn't drag along other people, virtually or in fact.

[@LearnToSailMexico]

How does that work, what do you get in return?

[@badb8485]

Can you give us a update on them

Awsome video! Thanks for the frank words.

[@walterthorne4819]

Great performance....many thanks

[@RickZackExploreOffroad]

I just stumbled across your video and it rang true to me. My first live aboard was a 1939 William Hand ketch. The old woodies just smell good. People would ask how I could live in such a small space. I would just point at the Pacific and tell them "Yes it's small, but I have one helluva back yard" Good luck and fair winds.

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

Rick & Zack Explore Offroad Absolutely!! Fair winds to you!

[@robertorzech2466]

I hope I meet both of you's out there some where , some time. You are truly real.

[@tammybackus1526]

Oh yeah I'm following this one!!!

[@clydecessna737]

Fantastic. Finally someone has a wooden boat! There are two kinds of people: those who like wooden boats and those that don't. Actuallly, there are two kinds of people: those who think there are two kinds of people and those that don't; but I digress.

[@Wv8675]

Lmao hilarious dude

Now that's a boat. What an endeavor. Best wishes to them love’em already

Someone should convince these two that they have the magic for a great KZbin channel!

[@tarDrp_]

They should may their own youtube channel, about their trips around the world and the food they eat on their travels. I would definitely watch that.

[@SailingSolo4110]

What a lovely short film, with a lovely charismatic couple! He sounds like a Geordie to me too? The open sea is tha last wilderness.

[@sailingyemaya9781]

Cool old boat

[@iTrove]

Cool stuff, I look forward to following your adventure. and... yes she is gorgeous.

[@0mekandrew803]

You two have some fun hard work coming , bring it. I've been on the water my whole life can't get enough then when I do I'm a road Trekkie. I'm sure you'll plan around the weather with that style if sailboat. And purchase a salt to fresh water converter. Then double your solar and add a water geni and your set. I'm envious. Don't forget a drag line left in water when running for accident s over the side. Sorry for sounding bossy and you probably know all this. But I want to follow your channel with less worries. I lost a close very intelligent brother who made one small mistake. Be safe Rock on. .

[@snowdingo7283]

Beautiful and well spoken !

[@toptoptop777]

very, very cool Sailboat!

[@hthring]

we watched all their videos on their channel, now this one, great to get some early content which they didnt have much of. theyve made that boat really nice and ar back in aus now.

[@mazwt44]

Wow.. what a stunningly beautiful woman...can't imagine why anyone would buy a wooden boat? Good luck look forward to your crossing.

[@timothyblazer1749]

I can understand it completely. Wooden boats feel better than plastic, and they can be repaired and maintained with no modern materials. Hence, you can be literally anywhere in the world and be able to fix her with hand tools, wood and a few fasteners. Throw in some modern epoxy, which keeps very well in storage, and you have a simple way to be self reliant. Also, wooden boats don't blister. All you need to do is keep her bottom painted with normal. oil based marine paint. No need to use LP paint.

[@constancesheeran7561]

dis-agree massively, if you have a wooden boat and something holes is you have to take all the wooden planks out that are affected and replace them, which means steam bending them (normally) to the shape of the hull, re-pack the gaps in-between them and then allowing them to swell into place. if you hole a GRP boat you make sure that area of hull is clean and lay some glassfibre matt over it, cover it in resin, wait a couple of hours and its probably now stronger than it was before and perfectly watertight, and if done properly with care you'll never be able to tell. I hate to say it but I fear when the boat starts to rot and they don't realise it the maintenance and cost will force them to abandon her.

[@speckspeck]

yeah, like wooden boats are going to easily get holed, have yet to see someone have the problem you have described, and insurance will cover it if it does happen, so keep it up to date.

[@crawfordwhite8549]

All the best from Melbourne Aus.
