Your light-hearted enthusiasm is like a light in a thunderstorm. To be young, free, and willing to take on new adventures is exciting to see. There are not enough of you wanderers out in the world. A breath of fresh air, no serious downtrodden attitude, just a willingness to go forth. Confident, obviously intelligent and maybe a bit of naivety which keeps you humble. You two are not about to succumb to hesitation, and definitely an inspiration to others. Sounds like you know your way around and the two of you are young enough that it is the perfect home! Beautiful boat and a lot of work ahead. Remember, buying it is the cheap part ….. enjoy, have fun, safe sailing ahead.

G'day from Brisbane Australia .. you got my dream cat.. actually used to work for Seawind ... believe me you've got quality, grace, space and a very seaworthy boat... delivered many of their earlier models in all conditions.. treat her well and she'll look after you in every condition.. fair winds and following seas lovers...

Wow, congratulations on this video becoming your most popular video by view count in only 11 days! Crazy that your subs are up by 25% too. Awesome. I have been watching your channel for a few years, and wondered why it wasn't much more popular. While I love the overlanding content, it seems like sailing videos are where the viewers are. Again, congratulations.

You look so much more relaxed and happy to be in your new home than you were on your last adventure of sliding on those greasy roads in Vietnam. Don’t get me wrong, I loved that adventure, too, but your smiles were more through gritted teeth. Congratulations on your new home! I can’t wait to see what adventures you take us on!

Hi. Your excitement and enthusiasm is incredible. Hope you can maintain it as the adventure evolves. Both the seller and you folks prove the old saying, the two happiest days in boaters' lives are the day they buy their boat and the day they sell it. The best part (in my experience) is that the learning never stops. Enjoy the ride.

Speed sensor = transducer. Baptism by fire…awesome! Since you are a sailing channel now, you need to know the formula: any future bottom paint episode requires footage of the painful prep work…powerwashing, scraping, sanding, filling, sanding, taping, cleaning, etc. so we can revel in your boat-work cred. Awesome episode! 😀⛵️😀

I just found your channel today and I've watched several of your videos on you 'new' boat. So excited for you! We plan to do the same in a few years and I wondered if you plan on making a video (or 10) about the boat buying process. Considerations, costs, resources, etc. I've heard insurance and financing are some of the bigger hurdles. Hoping you can share about your experience so we can have some updated (post-covid) information about how it all works. TIA!! I'll keep watching. Cheers!

Ah, what the heck. What's one more channel. I'm subscribed to literally many dozens of sailing channels on youtube, and yep, all the top ones and some obscure smaller channels, which I have to say are often times more entertaining than the top channels are. So, I might as well be subscribed to your channel as well. I am always interested in seeing how newbies start out and where they take us. So, a couple of rules. Don't be afraid to show the boat work, because a lot of us old farts like to watch how you guys fix things, then there is one other thing that does kind of disappoint me a little and that is the lack of stormy weather on film. And no, I am not saying you should be filming while it's blowing 40+ knots and you are at the helm trying to stop the boat from dragging. Heck, I wouldn't even think of a camera in that situation. I am just talking about the heavy rain, thunder and lightening, you know, the typical stormy wet days and nights that keep you stuck on board. Hardly any channel will put that on film. Yes they put a few seconds on and then switch to a bright sunny day and the next activity, because they think no one wants to see the inclement weather. Well, I know I do and I know many others like it too. So don't be afraid to put some of that on film too. Gosh, just put a go pro out and let it run till the battery goes flat, then add that film into an episode unedited. Just warn us that it is raw and I can tell you that you'll get a lot of likes and people asking for more of the same. I wish you both the best with your new home and can't wait to see where you go. By the way, I'm an Aussie, so it would be interesting if ever you decide to sail that boat back to where it came from.
