We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream. So, we created "Odd Life Crafting", a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons.
The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn't have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat 700km away from our hometown that was neglected for over 22 years and we spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3). The last season has been a dream coming true… we are exploring the Brazilian coast with OUR BOAT that we called Odd.. But wait? What happened to the house? Check out our website to know more about it www.oddlifecra...
We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.

You gave odd a new lease of life, seeing the new owners face was a picture. Here’s wishing you all the very best in the new chapter.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@paulfredrickson2181]

Thank you for allowing us to be with you as you said goodbye to ODD. You both gave ODD a second life and the opportunity to live again. The new owner looks like he will care for ODD as you both did.

[@bobbykeyz1263]

I just want to thank you for many years of great content. I'm looking forward to many more. Im exciting for your future.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@sboileau2]

A deserved heart felt goodbye to trusted friend .. Odd. What wonderful adventures ahead

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@jonathankarlsson1766]

Odd is the reason I started watching sailing channels. Thank you for the adventure! Looking forward to see what's next.

[@roberta4989]

I thank you guys as well as Odd, for giving me so much enjoyment with the sights and experiences I would never had known without you. I am full of praise and love for you...

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@RonaldJHElzenga]

Bye bye Odd❤ So funny when following other channels of your friends to get flashbacks when they showed the meeting earlier❤

[@jonathanworthing6278]

Two of you and odd had a lovely journey and lots of memories. Now it’s a new chapter for you all. Be nice if you meet up with odd with your new yacht.

[@gregemoates1729]

What a Great adventure BUT, Looking forward to the new one. Good Luck!

[@rudirednose1903]

I would also have cried, Duca. When I sold my first yacht, a HR352, end of the 90-ies, it hurted and it took years to overcome. Keep going strong and allways some water under your keel. 🍻

[@MyOldSled]

Awe…hey guys, those tears are just to remind you how lucky you were! Another great adventure ahead! Dress warm for Canada…its cold here…

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@fireblade1986]

wish you all the best, for your new plans and the future, love your spirit

[@davidnichols147]

Roberta & Duca: posting this "Goodbye" episode was so thoughtful, we all cried seeing you and Barnacle sailing on Polar Seal in the Chesapeake. The Shrimp Fried Rice looked elegant, I hope Roberta wrote down the recipe. Enjoy France and we are looking forward to your Van Conversion. Enjoy!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰 we were to busy talking to get the recipe, but we can always call our friend to get it 😁 thanks for the best wishes

[@uio890138]

Thanks to your vision and amazing dedication, Odd will have years of sailing in her future.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰💕⛵️

[@reclusivegrub]

Okay guys, you succeeded in bringing tears to my eyes with the goodbye to Odd. I am very interested in seeing what the future will bring with your new boat and adventures.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@vorovee3]

Damn, I never thought I’d cry at a KZbin channel! But you guys feel more like extended family. Goodbye Odd and safe travels to you and your new own.. and of course much love and best wishes to Roberta and Duca!

[@robertmarquis3529]

Congratulations to your new adventure I’ve been with you guys for a long time and I’m not going anywhere see you in France

[@chilly6883]

Thank you Mr. Odd- Thank you Odd life.. Thank you both I have enjoyed the journey... I have been since the start and will still be- I'm excited for you! And I'm sad with you! And I have tears with you.. Time to move to the next phase in life....❤

[@melinda5777]

Oh, Y'all had me crying with you! My heart was breaking watching Roberta kiss ODD and Duca when Y'all were walking away!!! Took me to the end to quit the sniffles! I love a sensitive man, and Roberta the strong shoulders he needs!!! STAY SAFE!! 🙏❤🇺🇸🇧🇷🧜‍♂️🧜‍♀️⛵👣🤙🤗

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕💕

[@mr.vancouver007]

Awwww!! You could see Duka had been crying 😢 when he said goodbye to odd. It's been a incredible journey watching you guys find and bring her back to life and making her so beautiful again with her orange paint you've got some wonderful memories but now a new chapter begins and I'm looking forward to the months and years to come

[@johnjilson4056]

you guys are awesome and make me tear up. Look forward to your new upcoming adventure

[@donras564]

I thank you for allowing your feelings to become transparent in this transfer! It’s amazing how a boat can take on a personality after investing your spirit and loving and laughter and work into it! We all will miss that pretty orange boat but I am so glad that the ones who gave her a new life will go on to new adventures!

[@MinneapolisRaven]

The two of you put so much love into restoring this beautiful girl. She will have more many great adventures because of you. Thank you for sharing her story with us.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@gillesgomez3091]

We will follow you along in your next adventures, of course! No doubt about that 😉

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@brucemckelvy9920]

Awe.. That brought a tear to my eye aa well. You guys are the best. Looking forward to the next chapter and your building the next awesome boat. (The big guy). :-)

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕🤗😘

[@pjotrh]

You brought her back to life and she surely will continue to be a joy to sail for many more years to come.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@77Slamvan]

I’ve followed you folks since the beginning, you both have worked so so hard on the restoration and did a fantastic job! Looking forward to the new adventures to come! ⛵️

[@fxpthl]

Saying good bye to your beautiful “Odd” wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be! After participating early on as a Patron, made you selling it even more difficult, but I understand your hopes and goals for another boat to create!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰 it’s always hard to say goodbye to something that brings you so much joy and good memories. But here we are now, creating new good memories 💕

[@sailingvesseltradewinds7764]

Thanks to you guys and the lovely refit off odd we got the sailing bug back in our vains❤️❤️ We followed you from day 1 to see a beautiful swan emerge behind that stranded boat on the hard. When covid struck we sat for hours and hours to watch it all. THANK YOU AND ODD🫶🙏❤️

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕💕

[@jackdedonato3512]

Good Luck in your future endeavors. Really enoyed watching you both. Can't wait to watch your next adventure.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

[@leon2060]

You guys gave ODD a new lease of life and she kept you guys save in her hull, it's very sad saying goodbye I wish you all the very best can't wait to see your next venture

Odd is a legend. I think we'll all remember her affectionately. Sad, but time to move to new and exciting things.

[@Rogster559]

Muito bommm! Vcs são demais! Boa ida a França. Amamos vcs. 😘😘😘

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Valeu pelo carinho sempre primo!!😘😘

[@marcvanbiesbroeck7276]

Je dois vous avouer que j’étais presque aussi ému que vous de vous voir dire adieu à votre voilier et ce, d’autant plus que j’ai connu la même sensation lorsque j’ai vendu mon voilier après 19 ans de navigation pour en acquérir un autre. Je continuerai à suivre vos aventures. Vous êtes formidables.

[@lonner98]

You two did such a great job with ODD. I wish you two the very best on your next adventure in life.

[@martinlarsson-wahlberg7120]

I found you in 2019 when I had an accident and now I’m laying here hopping the hospital finally manage to fix my foot. Through these time you have been a light to look forward to see, your spirit and love. Remember that even if departure comes with sorrow, its a beginning of some new and beautiful. I wish all happiness with all your endeavors and I’m looking forward to follow your adventures in the future. Greeting from the north of Sweden

[@user-nm2cw5ek7f]

When you said ODD was awesome and you new boat is going to be awesome, You may have just found the name for your new boat . "AWESOME " Good luck

[@OddLifeCrafting]

😁

[@lovingcars]

Tough to say goodbye. But you guys have so many new horizons to look out for.

[@JR-bj3uf]

It is good that your recognize the turning points in life and celebrate them as well as morn them. There are good memories full of creative hard work, adventure, friends and growth. It's OK to be sad while moving on to the new. You will always leave a little bit of yourself on Odd to sail off into the unknown.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@johnclark2660]

Seems "Odd" leaving without your home.😂 HOWEVER, I feel a bit emotional seeing your farewe. Loping forward with excitement to the new venture in France! Love you both. God bless you. ❤😏

[@wigglewiggle3789]

Ahhh you made me cry guys, but, a new beginning. Take care guys.

[@randyarnold6361]

Odd has been a great experience for us all. Now it is up to you to create a better experience for us now! I am looking forward to it!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@damiendoyle9948]

I've been watching you from the time you started the renovation of Odd. I hadn't realised four years had passed. It's been most enjoyable, you have shown that you have great perseverance and I'm sure that will put you in good stead for your future project, I'll be watching Cheers🥂🦘❤

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@CAPTJohn47]

I'm retired US Navy so lots of ships/boats in my history but, on a personal level, I've built or owned 9 boats. I've loved them all but still they were only "things." The human connections you make through these "things" are what matter. You will always love Odd, but you will always treasure your human connections. On to the new adventure!

[@richardthaxton9890]

It’s hard to leave something that’s been a part of your life like Odd has❤

[@craigeaston-bk5ct]

Hi guys, it's a sad ending but a New beginning, Odd was awesome over the last 4 years, and we loved every moment. We will definitely be with you both on the next chapter, and it's going to be a blast. Sails up and let's go sailing, Thanx Craig UK xxx

[@Mr1990hjc]

Good video, when Roberta kissed Odd goodbye, I was thinking, No don't leave, let's think about this again ! However when your friend was excited about getting Odd for himself, I felt proud for him too !

[@OddLifeCrafting]

🥰

[@steveraleigh100]

Tchau Odd. fair winds and safe travels. I hope we get to see you again somewhere, someday.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@inmyopinion6836]

Great journey, what's next? Are you going to start a family??? Seeing you two happy and well is enough, thank you for including ME! We hope you don't stop KZbin

[@OddLifeCrafting]

We made some videos talking about what is next , like this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYPElnVqrs1pnMksi=EWOtCA2K5ajZsjkk ☺️

[@baidarka-guy]

Odd is a vessel whose soul and character was born of your efforts. The 2 of you will do that with whatever boat you end up with. Good luck and looking forward to the future as that what matters.

Now that i have found you 2 again i have been binge watching all the episodes i missed .and i realized the one thing i had missed most ,Roberta your smile is like seeing the sun coming out after a storm . seeing you 2 say goodbye to ODD I too said goodbye while flashbacks of the rebirth came to mind . Safe journeys my friends .

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Welcome back 🥰

[@Aequitas-sailintothesunset]

Odd anchored just behind us in prickly bay Grenada at the moment . She’s in great shape and looks fantastic , sorry we missed u , our Atlantic crossing was a little slow 🤣. 👍🏻😎.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

That’s cool! 😁 I guess you had a good crossing ☺️ enjoy Grenada. Eat a pepperoni pizza at One Love for us 😁

[@Aequitas-sailintothesunset]

@@OddLifeCrafting we’ll give that a try. Yes crossing was slow - we came over with the ARC+ so via Cape Verde which was a nice break. Crossing from there was 15 days (2200 miles) guessing you might be doing a crossing yourself with your new boat at some point, will be watching your progress with interest as we did with Odd 👍🏻😎🎅 congrats on your Wedding🎊🎊🎂

[@andrerothermel4645]

awesome video!!!!👏👏👏👏👏

[@OddLifeCrafting]

[@DanP001]

guys its good you create a new project. maybe for one year i was away cuz the sailing content was not what i like. wish you good luck for the future and i will follow you now.

[@JimKJeffries]

Beautiful

[@klazyy641]

Starting a new episode in one's life is quite often bittersweet---as is leaving Odd. But this particular episode's editing was spot on! The pathos of saying goodbye to the soul of Odd and flying off to old/new friends has a sweet tang to it. I am excited to have followed you from start to the present and find myself almost as excited as you two. Eagerly looking forward to each and every moment of your future.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

[@richardrap1818]

Thank you for letting all of us in on your life. Though vicarious, its been a really rewarding trip. Know there are a lot of us out here looking forward to the new adventures albeit RV or Sail. As an ex pilot I'm only waiting for the airplane. Congrats on the marriage. Never forget its a true partnership. One question: Where does the Italian citizenship come from?

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️ Duca is the 5th generation of his father’s family in Brazil and one of his cousins made all the documents for the whole family. I also have the rights through my family but I would need to get all the documents and it takes a while

[@patrickconway5542]

Growth can be painful , but it will make you stronger and better person, Odd will always be with you so don’t think as if you’re leaving Odd but she has out grown you and she needs another adventure! So please don’t be upset but look forward to your new journey with a new friend 😏👏 keep the good times going and enjoy the trip with an amazing wife 🥰 !!

I will admit for a while I wasn't watching the channel as often as I would have liked to. I'm sorry that you said Goodbye to Odd, you put so much work into her, but what a beautiful yacht she was when you finished her. I basically watch four sailing channels, and of those four, you are the third one that is getting a new boat. Nick and Terysa over on Sailing Ruby Rose has their new Catamaran, Jason and Nicky on Gone WIth The Wynns should be getting their new catamaran soon, so I'll be looking forward to seeing what the replacement for Odd is going to be. Did you ever finish or sell the container home you were building in Brazil?

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️ here is what happened to the container house www.oddlifecrafting.com/blog

[@GaryMCurran]

@@OddLifeCrafting thanks Duca. A totally wonderful solution!

Hope you are making a serious upgrade in a new yacht similar to the Vitters' Carmella......... since you like to have guests on board affording space for such.

[@annhysell6064]

Be well both of you. Good luck. I'm not into all these new gadgets (certainly not autopilot, a windvane would be much more useful, and other expensive gear..only if one has $ to waste). Chesapeake is always fun, challenging, & beautiful.
