OUTREMER 52 OWNER’S REVIEW: www.katamarans.com/owners-rev...
🎶 MUSIC by Epidemic Sound
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello! We are Holly and Stephane 🇺🇸🇫🇷
We have made the transition from full-time software professionals from the SF Bay Area to liveaboard sailing explorers who always keep one eye on the weather and our hearts in a song. Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We are working with Outremer in France (with the help of Google translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it’s not a race or speedtest, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we’re learning living without Amazon, (but with Starlink), and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our KZbin vlogging skills. Our goal isn’t to make our life a movie, it’s to give back to what others have shared with us, which is why we don’t monetize our channel.

As exciting as it was, pleased to learn the Outremer arrangement was non-financial, just helping each other. Outremer deserves help for building such a comfortable, safe and good looking boat with such long legs capable of averaging 11 knots over 24 hours. Congratulations on the high speed cruising and video editing and thank you all.

[@BilldalSWE]

You don't think 1,5 million is enough thanks for them building the boat? ;) I agree Outremer definitely deserves getting to show of the boat in Miami after how they came through and helped with the whole repair so quickly but without the accident I'm not so sure I would have gone days/weeks out of my way for a boat show without compensation or discount as per the original agreement...

Got a little worried when you didn't have a post on Sunday but then "no news can be Good News" and so it is. I also figured you were so elated in accomplishing your goal you just had to take one minute at a time. Thanks, much appreciated to the two of you and all of your Captains and Crew - for all the filming, editing, commentary and being who you are. Now you can relax and enjoy the boat show and then a nice leisurely sail⛵ to the Bahamas.

OH MY GOODNESS GIRL!!! YOU GUYS DID IT 🎊 🎉💯❣️‼️That was sooooo incredible to follow and such a remarkable testament of resilience and determination. Beating into the swell in the Med, dodging Orcas, a heartbreaking damage to the hull … to booking 250+ miles in the final 24 hours - stuff of legends right there. Now it’s obvious that you two are quite tough and familiar with the hustle of life, sticking through the highs and lows to get the job done. YOU DID IT! Now give yourself a break, a treat, and allow yourself to relax, recover and enjoy the new boat and cruising life. It’s clear that you have been a really hard charger at all things in life. It’s been a long, hard fought road. Allow your self the joys of this new life. Cheers 🍻

Loved how relaxed the crew was being on camera and felt comfortable filming footage too. This series had all the makings of a good story...adventure, beautiful footage, emotional variety, heartbreaking tragedy, and beautiful women. LOL This has been my favorite channel to follow over the last 2 months. Holly, you have grown so much and display amazing confidence in your sailing skills now. I loved your show of overwhelming emotion when thanking all the people that made this a success. Enjoy the boat show and please continue to take us along on your adventures to the Bahamas. Oh, and I love the fact that you have no financial incentive to be at the boat show (its ok if there was). This type of a relationship where you are mutually working together without a business arrangement is amazing. It really shows your character and what type of people Outremere truly are.

I’m sure you know but Great Circle helical wrap the base with line which reduces the humming.

It has been lovely joining you on this adventure! I have been looking forward to the daily videos … checking my KZbin feed each morning in Australia to see if the latest has been posted. As you got closer to Miami, I found myself eagerly checking the predict wind tracker throughout the day (and night) … Go! Go! Go! Like cheering on an athlete in a race … but just quietly by myself … a little fist-pump … “yesss!!” … they are still going so fast!! Go AWEN, go!! I was amazed by the boat speeds you were achieving at the end - you were flying! You broke the rule (don’t sail to a schedule) and you made it! What an achievement. Well done! Well done!

Holly, the moment I saw the continuance on your face, with the finish line in full sight, I knew this would be a fantastic finish to your “All Together” series. Even though I knew the result by watching the tracker and watching AWEN jockey around the finish, getting in line, and then finally at the dock, the way you weaved the story gave credit to those who helped and shared your feelings, which was fantastic. Stephane is a fantastic captain; you are a top CSO and video producer. Together, you were intelligent and humble in seeking professional help in this journey. The performance of AWEN under the proper direction was terrific. Outremer certainly shined high with the details of Outremer weeks, training, and handover; the support was unbelievable when needed. I hope you have a fantastic boat show and soon will enjoy the much-needed rest and recovery. This is a fantastic story, told perfectly, and the start of wonderful AWEN sailing adventures.

You have a great team that supported you and should be very proud. It's has come across that you are struggling with anxiety issues and I would suggest that you seek out some people that can help you with that. That can be a problem that can over take your time and health. The good news it's can be addressed. I know getting hit at anchor didn't help. You have a great partner and crew should have been a great help. Keep your head up and spirits high. Smile and be happy.

Way to go! What a wonderful foundation to build the rest of your journey on together! So inspiring. This just makes me so happy. Was waking up in the middle of the night to check your position and speed the last few days and so excited for your achievement. Gotta have the lows to know the highs!
