That was a very interesting episode. The way the legend of the monsters developed in an area with navigation made treacherous by fast currents in ancient times is fascinating. How people attempted to explain their world is very interesting. That Italian navigational book looked really cool.

[@silvestrolisitano]

From Messina, thank you very much for this Amazing video. I'm very proud of this beauty, my sea, my colours, my Sky. Each wave carries unique smells and legends. I Hope you enjoyed it. God bless you

@@SailingMagicCarpet Definately worth it :-)

[@sebastianreitz]

Aladino I like your cap, I learned sailing on the lake of Thun, in exactly this school. Thank you for this nice video.

[@SailingMagicCarpet]

Hah, that’s so funny! Aladino’s friend from switzerland left it on board when we came sailing with us!

[@satchell78]

Awesome seeing the boaters, but not to often is Italy on the tour. Grew up in Napoli and been there a few times...Thanks for sharing!

[@larskronqvist9170]

Syracuse The home of Lucia! Today we celebrate Lucia (SWE) The saint who comes with light in the darkest of times. We visited Syracuse and Taormina a few years ago. Beautiful places but steep hills-we took the bus up to Castelmola. Thanks for sharing.

[@MrA1582000]

Such a beautiful city and so beautifully presented by your video and narration. Thank you.

[@SailingMagicCarpet]

Thank you so much Mary!

[@dlswede3912]

Even sweaty Dino looks great LOL

[@paulolodicora4471]

Hi there guys, what I like the most is this incredibly well done videos with very well taste musics, and not to mention good editing. Merry Xmas! Cheers.

[@Sharpiesailor31]

Another charming video. Mia, your narration is absolutely marvelous! Your words play like musical notes and your voice a beautiful violin. I don’t mean to wax poetic here, however you certainly are deserving. Oh, and happy holidays to both of you. Cheers.

[@omarkn4371]

Beautiful!

[@keebearfull]

Thanks for once again taking me to beautiful places. Especially to the top! And I don't mind seeing the highlights of grime, sweat and struggle saturated provisioning. .

[@sailing_helouise]

Wow I’ve always wanted to go to Sicily. Btw there are loads of whirlpools when the tide is running here in Plymouth near the famous “Devil’s Point”.

[@sailingavocet]

really? we will have to look that up for ourselves!

[@chandrqputra7393]

I note that every now and then Maya plays violin, seemingly good at it. May I suggest that you play at it in one of episodes as the full background?

[@steveqhanson6835]

Beautiful area!

[@englishmaninfrance661]

Good stuff guys :)

[@greggronemeier1256]

Great episode !

[@RVLifeNOW]

Thanks for the ride on the Magic Carpet! -Rebecca on SV Brick House

[@allansparkes6224]

Happy Birthday Mandy 🥂

[@bobmiller5352]

Nice as usual...You reminded me about your little boat back in Canada. That is a special boat indeed. Do you still have it? I fished tuna and swordfish for a living for many years, splendid fish, no doubt. Cheers and Happy Holidays !!!

[@clarisd]

My nieghbors are from Messena and it is also there family name!

[@dianseib818]

[@SVImpavidus]

👍Ant, Cid & the Pooch crew.

[@grisofpv1286]

i'm sorry, once the up anchor sends an alarm to your iPhone even if you are on the ground? Thank you. Ciao from Chioggia

[@vandbaxelrad6902]

Love joining you on your sailing adventures.👍 One question... Could you please tell the story of the Magic Carpet logo? Obviously the Genie lamp from the Aladdin story cleverly combined with a sailboat. Who designed it and how did it come about?

[@SailingMagicCarpet]

Hy Axelrad Glad you saw it It isn’t obvious to everybody. Also why the boat is my magic carpet. Aladino being aladdin in Italian..anyhuu The Logo came about as a Sketch made on paper wich then with help from a friend and Maya got digitalized. Maybe we will have an updated version soon but that always staying the core of it of course:) Thx for watching Aladino

[@Brago.Oficial]

12:02 music name?

[@srfrg9707]

In greek it's Skylla with a k and Harybdo with a h sounding like the spanish jota. Too bad Ulysses had no GPS.

[@hansguenter6263]

Oh das sind bestimmt fröhliche Frührentner;!?

[@Luzviminda777]

Pico means little , as little current ...

[@Hunter-ym2kk]

when the angle is right, Aladino looks like Johnny Weissmuller, who first played Tarzan.. what a hunk is Aladino..

[@alicecoppers8980]

My favorite part is Portofino Italy

[@compuface100]

why you are sailing with a dutch flag ?

[@xk1sv]

Another beautiful episode! I’m glad you persevered to the top of the mountain, the views were worth it :)
