marena and i go sailing [S5E17]

[@victoriaimmonen7421]

Oh you sail in my waters 🧡so nice to se my paradise … Spring is soon here and the boat is going in to the water❣️ Victoria

[@philipwright7186]

Technical sailing videos have their place but nothing nourishes the human soul like art, which I'm inclined to believe is the essence of sailing. A perfect match.

[@Rungaul]

Loved the Navionics at 8:00. That zigzag is satisfying. Absolutely love watching this journey.

[@gl2856]

Once again an amazing video. I’ll be sorry to see the season over ,

[@jonasnyqvist5742]

Carl Andersson, the Swedish boat builder behind the Vindö yachts is smiling from heaven after watching this episode.

[@taleg1]

Along the coast of Norway and Sweden, there are thousands of places to anchor up like you have been doing in this video and many of them are so nice that you almost don't want to leave or so safe that it almost feels like you are in a marina. I grew up doing just this each summer with my parents and my brother from a fairly young age and up until I turned 18 and even then I joined them now and then just to get away from it all. So everything in this video seems familiar to me and if I'm right I've also anchored up close to where you have stayed more than a decade ago. :D Oh, and I almost forgot. Get local sea maps as not all underwater dangers are properly marked and a few are even unmarked just so the local can sit around being hopeful that some sucker will run a ground. My family has a cabin a few leagues inside the Norwegian border and there within sight from the windows there is a danger right under the surface in the middle in a huge open bay that really shouldn't be there and it should really be marked as you can stand on it in a shorts and not get the shorts wet on low tide. But there is no visible marks on the surface at all. So maps are a NEED and you need local maps to be sure. It's annoying that many such places has still not been added to the online charts. I know this because I have checked.

[@georgegilbert7347]

Two ladies and a camera. A bit of night sky with a sailboat in the backdrop. And you have magic!

[@silverfoxes65]

When I first saw Marena I thought she was one of your other two sisters. Wink. And she even plays the violin, very well I must say. Enjoyable series. thanks.

[@loripeaceandlove6391]

Wow! What an amazing video. My favorite part Maya was when you were in your beautiful blue silk dress with magic carpet in the background at the most beautiful anchorage and you making music on your violin what a blessing it was just stunning. Also the individual pictures all of them are absolutely beautiful and it was wonderful to hear your best friend play at the end. What an awesome video I absolutely loved it. PeaceAndLove Lori

[@jmdibonaventuro]

This episode was phenomenal! It’s gotten to the point where I may have to use a thesaurus every time I write these comments, for fear of repeating the same adjectives over and over. This episode, like all previous in the series, has wonderfully captured the spirit of summer. Can’t wait for the next one, and many more after that! Fair winds, -J

[@SailingMagicCarpet]

This comment just made me SO happy. Thank you so, so much for your support, and for taking the time to write this. -Maya

[@brentbauer8258]

Magic Carpet seems to capture people with beautiful souls. Marena seems to be another one of those exceptional souls.

[@johankist8097]

Beautiful episode with the violin playing in the moonlight.

[@stevebutterworth1937]

Marena and ‘the living is easy’👍🏻

[@NoahBullen-Smith]

Wow! I'm in awe at the videography and sound design in this one! Your channel is one of very few that truly capture the beauty of sailing in such a simple yet complex way. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of time and effort that it takes to make one of these videos to such detail and polish that you do. The ambient sounds like the winches and sails flapping are like music themselves and when coupled the with beautiful music its like magic! Really captures the beauty of sailing. Thank you for continuing to create these videos they are an absolute gem!

[@SailingMagicCarpet]

Wow, Noah, this comment is so SO kind!! Thank you so much, this just made my day. I'm so happy you enjoy the videos, it's such an honour to have the chance to produce them.

[@stevencollins4981]

Hi both you have shown some amazing places and put everything across so beautifully you are doing what most people dream of be safe and look forward to next week x

[@treehuggingmusician595]

Perfect ending song, "Summertime, and the living is easy. . ."

[@paulbarnett4021]

…most beautiful episode. Love the music and photography.

[@richb313]

Beautiful video scenery and music thanks for posting this video.

[@robbywittlin1631]

This episode is not of this world, specially the last sequences with this poetic pictures of Marina and Maya! And Aladino, all the gentleman he his, setting the heater for you for not to freeze…

[@Sailing_Antrice]

Another lovely video. I just loved the mid-tack bite of banana! Fantastic!

[@davidmacdonald5907]

Beautiful light and scenery. ❤

[@billkurek5576]

Everyone forgot about Aladino, what a wild and crazy guy…..! Excellent video. Thanks.

[@larskronqvist9170]

Tacking in narrow canals are fun! The trick is never to lose stearing.

[@RBMawby]

Marena, a wild rendition of "Summertime" Thank you.

[@nancyhunka3059]

Beautiful - in so many ways. Thank you.

[@einarquay]

Magic, just magic. You make us feel as if we are there, the pace, the sound…thank you.

Mind blown beautiful photography!

[@janiscommentz7732]

So. Enjoying these restful episodes. We had a fried who was from Gothenburg so it’s extra special!

[@nick.caffrey]

Maya channeling her inner Jonna Jinton! Marena's style on the violin is different but really engaging. Can't wait to see what the teaser is about!

[@RoyClare]

“We love motorboats” says Maya … 😂 … love your channel, thank you for sharing it with so much skill, insight, reflection and joy. 🎉💙

[@williammcknight4274]

Thank you. You make me look forward to friday evenings. I can't wait to see the next video!

[@danielorr2972]

Wow! Violin twins! Aladino has great music which makes it twice as nice! Your Scandinavia Summer will be one to remember, long after it is over. You two + one are the luckiest! Savor the moment. Carpe Diem!

[@normanrubenis7283]

Such a great episode. Love the last section and some beautiful images of you both.

[@AlaskaRog]

Thanks for the nice video. Good sailing, good music, and great nighttime shots, ladies!

[@Tomm9y]

Lovely tacking in narrow channels, memories of the same in Ireland and some tide running too.

[@saenole66]

A beautiful video with typical beautiful scenes and soothing music.

[@FunsongsMusicByPeterRahill]

Your violin Song is so homey and beautiful…love it!

[@tomv2302]

People, scenery, sailboat... absolutely stunning video and a super hero in his cape to boot. I too am looking forward to the building series to reconvene

[@TheJohnlindsey]

I have to complement you on your great audio. The surround sound and music is incredible.🥰😃😃

[@StemtoSternSailing]

I'm glad you took the time to visit botnen at the end of fyksesund. My favorite sailing destination! Best regards from Jarle

[@oldshad65]

Love that sound of the rig creaking after a tack when a nice breeze tights up everything up and sends the boat soaring.

[@MikeSantis]

As always, another beautiful video guys. I finally began the editing on my Swedish sailing trip from last September. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks.

[@PatrickPoet]

I always admire people that prefer sailing. It's the only way to develop the skills all sailors had to have before engines

[@kevinhealy4253]

Lovely to see you Maya, literally glowing with your friend Marina.

[@40watt_club]

thanks to Marena, playing my favourite tune.

[@keithh3463]

The Photos of Marina were amazing the moon her reflection WOW.

[@norman4991]

Absolutely awesome, thank you.

[@markdaltonvanisland]

Best episode of this series, photos are outstanding... well done!

[@cajuncustomizedexcursions7064]

Your videos are so relaxing and I look forward to watching them!!!❤❤

[@mannsonthemove2958]

Wow you got incredible content this past summer. Well done! You are way ahead of where most vloggers usually are. I look forward to Fridays because of you guys. Thanks.

[@ATHPSEneegylVer]

The colors... the sounds... the music... the unreal editing!!!!! Another magic episode. Keep on loving, keep on living keep on sailing!

[@shirleyboy8859]

Simply Delightful.... I do Love the Blue Dress Maya... Very Elegant and Graceful.... The photos of you both are stunning..... It always warms my Heart to see you all Smiling... :-)) xxx

[@darrenstarling3975]

Another wonderful episode. I would say though, that the state of Magic carpet shows Aladino as a true artist... 😁

[@Mark-ww9sb]

Truly lovely series. Such articulate choices, commentary, video graphics, editing and sound. A very talented duo with interesting and talented friends. Can't wait to see what you decide to do next. Thank you.

[@Mark-ww9sb]

Blast all spell checkers. Videography became video graphics...

[@fgonelli]

Thanks a lot! I love to sail with you on Magic Carpet!

[@chrisfrench8323]

Coastal Sweden is so unique. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. God bless.

[@waynerudiger1756]

Incredible! Maya, your work is always exceptional. This collaboration takes it to a whole other level, just amazing.

[@Just_Your_Average_Guy]

What beautiful photos and video of two gorgeous ladies! Your framing and vision is spectacular. You'll treasure these photos for long after you're in another place exploring new adventures. Very nice!

[@michaelganshirt8795]

So close! A valiant effort!

[@aarondodge1913]

It fun to see how much fun and enjoyment you guys have with your friends aboard. Bless you! You have blessed us all.

[@chriscardwell3495]

Lovely episode, wonderful art. Maya lots of the real you does shine through the on-camera version 🙂

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 It almost gets more magical every episode in Sweden. Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.

[@19Loretta69]

I miss the summer. Thanx for a nice episode.

[@gus2747]

A beautiful episode,...... After sanding Magic Carpet 2 for months, you deserved this summer

[@robertnixon3816]

The only bad thing about this Swedish summer is that it will end! Such a good video filmed with and by your friend Marina! Its going to be hard to get back to work on Magic Carpet II! And the music....oh my!

[@janetkennedy5940]

Lovely sailing, beautiful music.

[@myhillslife27]

As a photographer and creative I loved what you both did at the end.. love the images.. really beautiful its lovely to brainstorm with another Yes Maya,, ..

[@wynnehonsinger5217]

Wow! The pictures and scenery at the end of this video are just spectacular.! Thank you.

[@deemacvee1]

A beautiful episode. Bit stressed tacking in those narrow channels so close to the rocks. Always pushing yourselves is where the excitement comes from.

[@russbowlus]

Richard Henry Dana has a bit at the end of his book describing hanging the bowsprit over the walls of a fort as they were tacking into Boston Harbor--your path up the channel reminded me of it. :)

[@braithmiller]

Beautiful austere rocks. Similar attitude to tack through passages without motor. Excellent having your friend along.

[@CowboyDave1957]

Amazing video! Loved the mirror shots of you ladies in the small pools sitting on the rocks with the moon in the background!

[@robertgranafei2781]

Every Friday you make my day better. This one was super special.

[@Tristan_de_Kermadec]

The final part of the video is purely magical: beautiful friendship, beautiful landscape, the music, just plain happiness.

[@shaswatidas8552]

You are always an amazing violin player, but today's playing was so beautiful...the ambience was so magical, its was kind of a total...full circle. Thanks for sharing.

[@banyameadow8864]

It’s so enjoyable to watch your videos! I’m waiting for a new one every friday. And by the way, you inspired me to cruise the swedish westcoast next summer with my little Gazelle des Îles, a very tiny and cute french sailboat. 😊⛵️

[@beatamontgomery2242]

You bring us magic week after week! Sensational as always! Thank you :)

[@user6619-k9t]

The lighting in those photographs is so beautiful and creative.

[@kimhorton6109]

Here in Arkansas it’s January and we have had a ‘Wolf Moon’??? It’s down on the horizon and looks very big. I love the light that sticks with us so late in the evening.

[@pinebearclub]

Such a great episode Maya! Yes, the summer lasted long, even here on Gambier Island and in the Vancouver area. Sunny and dry well into the end of October! Really unheard of for these parts! Bryan from Vancouver

[@ewoutvan-manen3583]

One of the most beautiful episodes. Thank you x

[@davemccabe7040]

Love your videography, poetry and music. Many thanks!

[@kellyh1316]

You make us landlubbers so happy! Sooooo perfect and beautiful! ❤❤❤❤❤❤Thank you all!

[@motoretro1972]

Nice that Marena is back on board with you. I remember that she has an absolutely lovely singing voice. I hope we hear about it.

[@dougsrepair1060]

Your content is always a pleasure to watch. Thanks again.

[@laclefdeschamps28]

Bonsoir Magic Carpet De sublimes images et superbe moment de partage merci.

[@lentongrovetrust5201]

Those photographs match the twins and are stunning, nice to see how you put things together.

[@bevtrue6937]

I bet there is a different version of yourself around Aladino, too. Perhaps the best one, since you chose him for your life partner. 😍 Love your music, both of you. Awesome location.

[@stevebendelack3935]

Maya this is so ridiculously gorgeous.And Marlena did a pretty good job of photographing you as you did her!

[@FunsongsMusicByPeterRahill]

Okay - now that's a pretty cool 10:14 capture. "The Shadows Know". 14:38.

[@phillipobrien7365]

After copping a few motor boat wakes Everyone loves motor boats. Almost as much as jetski`s.

[@christip20]

What a wonderful episode, I loved Marina playing “Summertime”, you’re both such a treat to listen to.😊

[@gaylarice3716]

My favorite one this season so far. Thank you so much!

[@roncooper6302]

I sailed in the Stockholm Archipelago, a stern anchor really adds to the enjoyment.

[@moneymarty1]

Stunning pics of that beautiful biologist!

[@hgarbade]

Photo shoot was magical!

[@stevebendelack3935]

So so pretty this boat looks at magic hour.Stunning as ever.That mahogany varnish….
