Thanksgiving Boat Life Edition | Boat Life Ep. 26

[@WildWeRoam]

When Lou and I think of what we are grateful for this year, this community is top of the list! Taking the time to celebrate Thanksgiving aboard Penelope was such a fun challenge and made us appreciate our tiny kitchen even more. I feel like we need to have more feasts like this in the future!! What are you grateful for this holiday season?! Sending all our love, Dana

[@CruisingAlba]

Grateful to live on a boat and feel sheltered from the world's events 😀So grateful to discover your channel this year, honestly! You guys are so much joy ❤️

[@vincentthart4708]

Grateful to see you guys cutting onions with safety glasses 😂 Use snorkeling goggles, they probably work better 😉

[@veganlyncat]

I’m thankful for my family.💚🌱

[@kkrot81]

Dana seeing you so full of gratitude is beautiful. You two compliment each other so well. I am older then both of you. Am I am just now (about a year away) from embarking on my dream. I’m selling my home and going to live full time in the road with my 110 pound 🐶 dog! To be as young as yall are and already living your dream is a wonderful thing. Sooo so so many people go their whole lives never doing so. I’m happy for yall. Genuinely happy for yall!! Happy sails! Bless you both and Penelope! ⛵️

[@WildWeRoam]

Thank you so much for this sweet comment, Kami! And how cool that you are planning to embark on your dream--we wish you so much happiness and contentment, for you and your dog ❤️ happy adventuring!!

28 minutes long video? Did Christmas come early this year?

[@haywood12]

It's all about watched minutes.

[@luvslyfe1]

Lol, tis’ the season for feasting 🥗 🥘

[@honumikey]

videos are such a rainy day vibe and I love when it rains.

[@RyanFila]

Rain makes for a good indoor day 😊

[@msdenise1234567]

[Dana/Lou laughs] or [Dana/Lou giggles] are my favourite subtitles haha

[@UntilTheEnd123]

i’m only 5 minutes in and this video is just BEAUTIFUL

[@summergrace5102]

of course just like about everyone who watches you, I've been watching you guys grow ever since you were living in NYC, I love your hard work and dedication. I would love to see a video where you guys talk about your relationship and the pros/cons of living around each other 24/7. Thank you so much!!

[@youtubename1234]

Lifehack to keep stuff warm: wrap the pot or whatever in a towel and put in under the blankets in your bed :)

[@WildWeRoam]

Oh! That is a GREAT tip, thank you!! ❤️

[@akontilis1792]

So artistic, I love all the sights and sounds you share! Happy Thanksgiving!

[@RyanFila]

Also doubles as a bed warmer 😊

[@krewetkaaaa]

@@WildWeRoam and it really works. Couple of blankets or bed quilt and your pot of potatos or some other stuff can be warm for an hour or more. Just remember to cook it slightly less than usual :)

[@larrylittleton8702]

Sailing skills...check Cooking skills...check Captioning the whole video with visual sound notes...SPOT ON!

[@erickstiner1668]

To help with the cold food. Just plate it and put back in oven to warm up the food. Just like grandma used to do......

[@gianstranger]

You guys make life look like a utopia, love you guys.

[@veganlyncat]

So beautiful and thank you for caring about animals, that feast was mouth watering!

[@carolann811]

Blind backing a pie crust: fill it with dried beans to keep it from puffing up. Or just poke it repeatedly until it deflates. It's all good in the end :)

[@SunsetSpecter]

I just want you to know that every time you played audio of your yanmar alt warning horn/buzzer that my cat Sophie got excited that we were going sailing... We both live aboard our S2 9.2c down here in SWFL and she always climbs up to be with me when we are moving. She's very confused right now lol.

[@AnaloguePhoto]

I just had my breakfast and is still feeling like a piece of that thanksgiving meal would be fantastic... It just looks delicious.

[@elainehickman4200]

What a great video. Fascinated to see you both work in that space. Yes it is sooo much better than the van. Thanks for sharing. Great to see you relaxing more into sailing. Let's all hope for better things for 2021, can't wait. From North West England.

[@Lovebeing543]

I'm in love with you both already. Your new home is beautiful and I'm so happy for you ! Smooth sailing I wish for all your new ventures.

[@asinfysh6973]

Hello Dana and Lou, Love your warts and all videos, like the blocked sink. Followed you all over Europe in Ody and enjoyed refitting and sailing with you both in Penelope. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Bye from Tuggeranong, Australia.

[@RyanFila]

That’s so dope! All the way from Australia 😊 I love it. I lived there and traveled for 10 months. Beautiful country!!

[@alicesomhusbands]

It's nice to see a more personal, less technical video (even though those are interesting !), will you make more? Like what about your routine on the boat etc..thanks 😚

[@liatori6214]

I agree. Like, for eks. do you still keep a travel journey?

[@WildWeRoam]

Thanks Alice, that is great to know! We are so in deep with learning the technical side of things ourselves so that is why we have been focused on that this year, but it's nice to know you and others enjoy these kinds of videos! Will definitely keep that in mind :) Especially once we are further along with the boat and ready to properly set sail and travel, we will have more of that content. Thank you for watching ❤️

[@terristenacious2279]

I love living through the two of you

[@Robert-cg2bj]

I pulled the subscription plug at 8:12. All the best in whateveer the future holds for you two; you truly deserve each other.

[@dadthegrappler4125]

Love the thankful hearts. That is what it's all about. It makes all the difference in enjoying life. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@coolhandluke45]

WOW what a feast !!!!! You guys make sailboating so much fun :-) , in turn which gives me energy to finish up my 38" sail boat faster so I can be in water I am doing interior and exterior upgrade , like total off the gird living, electric conversion solar panel and wind turbine, compose toilet, etc, all great for mother earth!! I am about 6 months away, and main while I watch your channel for great energy , keep it up.... you guys are fun :-) PS I love you boat make and model :-)

[@caroniestijl8723]

It looks great! Very inspiring. If you are loking for a safe sustainable way of cooking, there is also the Ecostoof. In the Ecostoof the food prepares it self. Place your ingredients in the pan, bring to the boil and transfer the pan into the Ecostoof. The Ecostoof is suitable for any type of pan. The insulation ensures that the food stays heated and cooks automatically, without consuming energy and without burning.

[@samuelandaudrey]

You guys did such a good job with your Thanksgiving meal in a tiny kitchen! I'm watching this at 11pm and it made me SOOO hungry. Loved the presentation - the bedsheet was a nice touch!😄✨

[@themileyj]

Thanks for sharing the sailing experience. It was very calming :)

[@donlehman142]

Cooking a feast on a boat is always fun.

[@Twelvestonestacking]

do you know what you call "no wind sailing?".... "floating"! ha

[@RyanFila]

Haha free flow floating 😂

[@thehologram]

You are such an inspiration. Love the courage and freedom of spirit I, but above al the kindness of heart and the peace you cultivated in between the two of you. 🌈

[@Andrew_Kohn]

I love this channel so much. Happy thanksgiving ❤️ thankful for quality, organic KZbin, just like this.

[@rays.5800]

nicely done ! To keep things warm use a cooler you can stack things as they are done.

[@MrJerobona]

You guys are wonderful !!! Happy Thanksgiving from West Hollywood !!!

[@edwardparkhurst9804]

You both make us that watch your channel feel so at home each and every time we watch. Thanks for sharing your life and times with us. Well done. Happy Thanksgiving.

[@RyanFila]

Thats awesome 😊 I love that y’all watch this together!

[@edwardparkhurst9804]

@@RyanFila thank you Ryan.

[@RyanFila]

@@edwardparkhurst9804 you’re welcome! Keep enjoying 😊

[@terristenacious2279]

I watched this again and started thinking about you cooking and not have enough space to have everything hot. A griddle would keep a couple pans warm and you could pick one up second hand, you have the space!

[@cginer3787]

Its so peaceful watching you guys

[@RyanFila]

The music makes their videos really peacefully too 😊

[@richardmabe1763]

Love Love Love this! Thank you for sharing your sailing journey with us. I love to hear all of the tips and tricks you are learning. I love sailing and just purchased a 24ft Seaward Hake for next season.

[@terristenacious2279]

What a great finish to a great day

[@josephinemaclellan2140]

Ah it's always an absolute treat when you guys upload a video. The best kind of escapism.

[@svbarryduckworth628]

That meal was incredible. Bravo Zulu! Seems pretty warm and a late sunset for Thanksgiving way up there in the northeast. We have spent a few cold nights and even days last week ourselves as we have travelled from South Carolina through Georgia and now into Northern Florida. The Rasmus sure can be a rocky boat, on anchor or just motoring. We try to always at least motorsail if we can not just sail because motoring without a sail to stabilize the roll is often uncomfortable unless there is a dead calm sea. That's the downside of a shallow draft keel. But it sure comes in handy in the Georgia ICW shallow waters. I hope you guys can stay warm this winter.

[@RyanFila]

That’s gotta be tough to stay warm on the water like that during the winter ay? I have no idea, just curious though 😊 ❄️

[@sashastarshanti3599]

Such a beautiful Vegan Thanksgiving meal. (I'm 13 years vegan so I appreciate your recipes, so much!) And a lovely, lovely video. You will remember this very special Thanksgiving meal for the rest of your lives. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@_sootyfoot]

You two have really inspired me to move towards a vegan diet - your meals always looks so colourful and enticing and prepared with such minimal equipment and space. And now this! A feast!

[@cindygagnier2250]

I'm on the same diet. Whole Food Plant Based. Really great for you!

[@gerrina9731]

For keeping all the food warm you can put it in a sleepingbag or something else that you can as a haybox... Maybe something for another time...and so you can use more pits for a meal... Your Thanksgivibg meal looks great!

[@bajaboolie]

Everything looks so good, and your pie is beautiful!!!

[@steelboss337]

I tell you what...if this sailing gig doesn’t turn out for you, there’s a pretty good future for your cooking channel! Literally drooling on my phone. Where did you learn to cook? You seem to have real grasp of flavor combinations and the essentials of healthy fine cuisine.

[@julies4718]

Y’all “blow” me away! Sailing like pros! Beautiful shots of leaving the marina - serene!

[@sailingstardreamer]

Food looks amazing just goes to show what you can do on a boat well done both of you

[@nikg1335]

I love watching your videos. So wholesome and lovely. Makes me forget my own life for 20 mins 😌😌

[@lauren2835]

You could just fill your plate once it's already, and warm your plates when it's time to eat :) Next feast!

[@victoriagoodman7294]

So sweet! Happy thanksgiving!

[@Maob08]

When baking the bottom part of the pastry, you always need to put something heavy on it like dry beans or chickpeas with paper (the one made for the kitchen. I'm not English, idk the name of it) between the crust and the beans. Besides that, everything looks amazing! 😁

[@leviathanesque]

parchment paper! i use ball bearings and parchment paper for my pie crusts.

[@Maob08]

@@leviathanesque thank you. That's what I meant.

[@louibeans]

Yep, alwys important to blind-bake the crust :D I was always curious to see what would happen if I don't. So I feel like this video was very educational for me!

[@moistsocks1152]

Whenever I'm early, i like to send some love to you guys!! Your videos have gotten me through a lot. I'm not exactly sure why your vids calm me down so much, but I'm grateful no matter what. Thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️ And happy holidays

[@WildWeRoam]

Aw, thank you so much for leaving this sweet comment! We are so glad and humbled our content can be a source of calm for you (even as we are creating chaos in our little kitchen, ha!) Happy and healthy holidays to you, too

[@bobrose7900]

Beautiful video, heart warming and tingling. After a day at work these are just the ticket to relax to and start believing in mankind again... terrific. Oh, and the food looks amazing too!

[@lindakurtz2653]

When you prebake a pie shell, often you put "pie weights" in it so it doesn't puff up. My pie weights are either rice poured over the crust on foil or beans poured over the shell on foil. Great looking meal. Its inspired me to get on with my Thanksgiving meal (its Tuesday b4 Thanksgiving)

[@sukierusso5738]

You two are precious! I love how passionate you both are about whatever task is at hand. Happy Thanksgiving!

🇨🇦 here too. 😁. I found laptop vagabonds on Instagram this year. Now I’m hooked on seeing how folks live an alternative life style.

That is such good advice, Cameron!! Especially love the "Find your why and keep it close"--very true ❤️

[@kristenfader2088]

@@CameronCJE absolutely! I've been vegetarian for 3 years (mostly vegan, the only thing I have every couple of weeks is cheese, other than that no animal products) and have evolved so much in my cooking! I dont use recipes anymore It just comes so second nature to me a this point, practice practice practice!

Love it! I know it’s too late, but you can keep things warmer by wrapping them in a clean towel.

[@ArtfulOutdoorAdventures]

I enjoyed seeing how you cooked so much food in a small space. Everything looked delicious!!

You should look into a grill, you could install it off the transom rail and free up some of your kitchen cooking space. Grilled veggies are great. I love your videos, God Bless you both. Keep on Keeping on. Rgds, Mark

Wonderful video. You guys are pros at making videos. Do you plan to travel on your boat? If so when?

[@frozenBURRITOforBILL]

Man, that food looks so good. You're making me hungry. I'm gunna need recipes.

[@benshke]

when your sink is clogged, never use the suction thing, your in danger of creating a vacuum and pulling outside water in, when the sifon starts drawing it's very hard to stop!

[@charonstyxferryman]

Every boat that i know of, has for each through-hole, a seacock (valve) just after the through-hole. BTW, I don't like through holes below the waterline.

[@victorsvanventures6753]

Beautiful video you guys 😍❤️ so proud of you both for the journey that you've been through 😎❤️

[@WildWeRoam]

Thank you so much!! ❤️
