We have a large pontoon boat on a lake with a house. I’m ready to sell the boat as we have barely used it! My husband is a retired Naval Officer who cannot get away from being on water, driving it etc… what is Phillip’s reasoning?

[@SeldimSeen1]

I lived on a sailboat with my husband for over a year. Then moved off and had kids who loved learning how to sail. A very blessed time of my life. Owning a boat is expensive. Especially the upkeep. But you guys handled renovating a Chateau, so I think you can handle this. Save yourself much grief and get sailing lessons for the whole family. Remember safety first. So keep the hatch closed at all times to avoid injury. It will feel so much better when you have the main sail up, sailing close to the wind and putting the sloop on her ear. This is a great idea since you live so close to the coast. Beautiful sloop. Congratulations.

[@bobbiejay2085]

They've already had sailing lessons. I'm sure they will upskill as needed.

[@knjmoorhouse5093]

If you’re supporting the channel, does that mean that they don’t have the right to pay for a vacation, their cost of living, the children’s extracurricular activities, etc.? If they bought a boat, it’s because they are fortunate to make enough to both renovate the chateau AND buy a boat. Kudos to Philip and Anna!! My favorite episodes are when Anna makes wallpaper, color schemes and room designs are decided, and when we get a tour if various parts of the chateau.

[@alexzachary3527]

Well said!

Is this sarcasm or compliments? I think they are a hardworking couple and we do not know anything about what they do when the camera isn't on.

Buying a yacht is merely the beginning of a great and very costly adventure. Oh my, I recall mooring fees, slipping fees, electrolysis issues, painting, varnishing, motor issues, bilge pump issues, sail issues, mould issues, so very much hard work, ….. and so much beauty. 🇦🇺

[@28105wsking]

What a beauty little boat!!. Congratulations! When I was in 9th grade, 13/14, in St. Thomas, USVI, we lived on a boat, The Noah's Ark, and my sister and I had bunks in the bow in the foc'sle. I was lucky enough to have the bottom bunk and slept just below the waterline. So I fell asleep and woke up to the sound of gentle waves slapping against the hull, Lying in bed, I could look up thru the open hatch and see the stars rocking back and forth in the sky. Sometimes the moon would shine right down the ladder and wiggle a puddle of white light back and forth across the floor. Every morning, there was a dirty old greasy pelican who came and sat on top of the foc'sle hatch to eat the fish in its beak pouch, wiggling furiously, still alive. Then the pelican would cough it up, tossing it into the air and catching it and happily munch, occasionally dropping fresh pieces of fish down the ladder and onto me!! I would scream and get so mad and whack at it with my pillow! I'll never forget looking up at the pelican! Every morning, without fail! It was fun! I wish such wonderful memories for your girls, too. All four of us took the dingy into the West India dock where we tied up and hiked up the hill to Antilles School, which still exists! So much fun. So many great memories. Two boys, two girls, a cat, a dog, a parakeet and parents! My dad built a cat box off the stern with a slot in the back of the floor and we just pushed the kitty poops thru it! A baracuda who lived under the stern, named Gil Evans after the jazz great, ate the kitty poops and got very big, long, and quite fat, but my mom fed it all the dinner scraps as well. It was the happiest baracuda you ever saw and never hurt us when we went diving and swimming off the boat. If we were naughty, we were pushed overboard and no mercy was given! My mother was a pirate wench! And my father? Har! Har! Har!

Oh how exciting! My dad had a sailboat many years ago that we used to sail on the Hudson River in NY state. Lots of great memories. There is something so special about being out on the river that has stayed with me for all these years. My dad passed away many years ago, and I never bought a boat, but I do enjoy walking down by the beautiful Hudson River and watching the sailboats majestically glide by. Its wonderful to see families out there enjoying the beautiful scenery along this magnificent waterway.
