If anyone has any advice on how I can improve my videos it would mean a lot

[@Cyndy101]

Colin is hilarious 🤣 Well done on his look for his appearance! 😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I can't help but wonder if that costume makeup was compliments of Daisy! 😂😂❤❤ #belowdeck

[@davidgrey4487]

An off east mast?? Doesn’t that throw the balance off on the boat given weight of mast n sails and all the kit ??

[@leeway777]

The mechanism of a lightning rod is well established. You need an aluminum mast and hull. Yes, aluminum boats are natural lightning rods. Fiberglass is a no-go.

[@seanpassant3174]

As someone that has spent the majority of their working life in the lightning protection & surge protection industry (over 30 years) I just want to add a little technical perspective. 1) It's not possible to attract lightning and people should be very wary of any person, company or product claiming that they can. 2) Lightning is only ever looking for a quick and direct path to earth, strikes to boats are incredibly rare, mainly because many boats / yachts are glass fibre / carbon fibre these days and these do not offer the quick and easy path to earth that lightning is looking for. 3) The "electrocution from the iPad" that Colin described is called 'touch potential' it's one of the most common ways that people are injured by lighting events. you can protect your electrical equipment (especially communications and navigation) by installing surge protection devices. When in an area where there is lighting activity quickly unplug any devices or equipment (ipads for example) that are not essential for boat safety and navigation. Happy & safe sailing everyone.

[@williambunting803]

Thanks Sean. I’m really interested in this area and am doing experiments with my boat to protect the system as much as possible. I’ve been suggesting to electronics systems builders that they incorporate optic fiber communication in the boat systems to break up conductive pathways between the various processors on boats such as the Navigation, remote processors, and battery management systems. Surge protection will be pointless if data lines become a pathway via capacitance or induction from a high current strike. I’ve installed all of my solar energy system MPPT’s, BMS’s and Lithium Batteries in a single metal case which hopefully will act as a Faraday cage, and can unplug the solar panels with a single 8 pin plug. The output side can also be unplugged as I have a DC/DC converter charging the house bank, and this can be unplugged easily too as it is just 2 wires. My current house bank will be replaced with FireFly batteries when |I can source them, as I believe these are relatively robust storage devices.

[@seanpassant3174]

@@williambunting803 You are correct William that isolating interfaces like fibre optics, galvanic couplers etc prevent the conduction of any lightning energy and would make boats safer

[@robeckel4965]

Wow, I can't believe you guys got Colin on the channel! What a legend!

[@marcelmulder649]

Plucky as expert nr 2 next? Nothing but quality peepol! 😃

[@danaparedes5613]

Colin from Parlay Revival!

[@TARS..]

Colin is a real one for appearing on show right after getting struck by lightning twice

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

Colin's and Riley's bathroom skit is Saturday Night Live worthy. 😂

[@suddenrushsarge]

Riley having an instantly positive reaction to the color sample was great :)

[@GuyFromGeorgia]

Yes.

[@kevinclark2642]

Yeah, such a good actor.

[@SingleSpeed427]

I am SO itching to see the boat finished and in the water! I can't imagine how anxious you all must be... and if your already on the boat... cant wait for the vids! 😊

[@GuyFromGeorgia]

Really! I mean, think how easy the video ideas are going to come to them over the next year or so as we watch them all get acquainted with their new mansion, and us to it, too. I gotta say, the quality of these personal productions just continues to skyrocket. I get more and more impressed each week. It's a truly fun watch. Thanks, guys.

[@johnphillips9025]

I’m guessing beyond feeling proud (deservedly), your comfort level is rising with the knowledge obtained by being involved with the build. Y’all make me proud to be a sailor.

[@haroldschaefer3777]

I used to have a 6 gauge copper wire run down from the top of the mast to the water. It actually worked when we got hit by lighting, all the instraments were fine.

[@MadroneHumanRights]

Oh so cool you had a cameo with Colin from Parlay Revival. That guy is astonishing, he can fix just about everything, so hard working and cool headed. Love that you are connected with him. Elayna I love the blue paint sample and that green cover was stunning, I would have that in my house. It's going to be so FANTASTIC to see a boat interior that DOES NOT look like an RV. So exciting, can't wait for the finished boat.

[@u4erac]

He is from Below Deck: Sailing Yacht too

[@MadroneHumanRights]

@@u4erac yeah I follow his channel, I have never watched Below Deck, even though Colin mentions it on his channel. His you tube channel is great.

[@carenclemmons5002]

Hey there Madrone. I must say I wonder if your choice of name has anything to do with the most sensuous tree I’ve ever seen in Texas; with it’s cinnamon colored inner skin, after the outer bark curls and sheds off, slick as a baby’s’ newt and cinnamon colored veins on its leaf surfaces. Awesome choice there!!!

[@thedivineenergy]

*I just came here with lightning speed. Sending you all good vibes. ⚓*

[@BTCxyz369]

❤🙏

[@traveller9625]

I can feel the excitement in this build and Elayna your reaction when opening the boxes was spot on. The only real thing I learned to do in a lighting storm is don't charge your phones and if you are right handed steer with your left hand

[@alisonarrowsmith2064]

Why steer with your left hand?

[@otovermillion]

​@@alisonarrowsmith2064 well, this was a sort of joke, i believe...Traveller could, as well, have said "if you are left handed steer with the right hand"...(at least you save the most handy one). Not sure if the word "handy" is appropriate as english is not my native language 😅.

[@LisaShankk]

This is my ultimate favorite boating Channel, thanks for all your hard work.

[@casslarkin4567]

This is what really charmed me about this video, in particular: you two are looking more and more in love with each other. Am I projecting this because you've captured my heart, or are other subscribers bearing witness to this 'look of love that's in their eyes?'~Dusty Springfield ♥

[@annabellegettingwell1531]

Absolutely.

[@SailingLaVagabonde]

We really have fallen more and more in love with each other over the years, you’re not imagining it ❤☺️

[@kellyturner7151]

I can’t wait to see how the boat looks when it’s done. It’s gonna be amazing 😊

[@Tyme_flies]

Freaking hilarious Riley saves animal and afterwards says"was i suppose to do that" 😂 ! The poor baby asked was the monkey nice. I dont blame Darwin after his other experience. Poor baby ! ❤

[@SailingLaVagabonde]

Hahahaha

[@Tyme_flies]

Yes Darwin most monkeys are nice, however your dad is the real hero ! Lol 😂

[@coleengoodell7523]

Love the blue that you decided upon. Being from an area of Florida with a very high level of lightning strikes, I make it a habit not to charge my phone, laptop or even keep TV's plugged in during a heavy thunderstorm. My TV and DVD player are only plugged in when in use anyway. Hope everyone is feeling well. Take care and God bless.

[@SailingLaVagabonde]

Florida has the most gnarly lightning we’ve ever seen. Absolutely terrifying 😮

[@John_Conner222]

When I worked in electronics retail there is a thing called a power conditioner. It was pretty expensive and very heavy but we sold it to our high end clients that bought larges amounts of AV gear. What it does is take power (raw power is rough even on its own and can damage all your stuff over time, even without lightning) and actually clean up the spikes and dips and smooth out the power levels. From there it's stored and then fed into the system as clean power (no spikes, dips, or pops). They always come with a pretty significant fuse system so if a surge powerful enough to do damage to your stuff happens, it breaks the circuit and protects your gear from damage. For a boat I would have recommended a Faraday cage built into the boat that would ground to the bottom or keel but its probably too late for that now. Maybe they could build a Faraday cage into the control console at least.

[@Zschneider91]

I'm not sure how often you kind folks read through your comments but I do hope this catches your eye. I've been keeping up with you guys for quite a while now. Something I've always loved from one of your videos was from a Mr. Jeff from Philadelphia Pennsylvania on your trip to San Blas. The way he explains how inspirational you guys are was really touching, something I feel a lot of your followers may agree with. Riley, you have captained your boats so professionally and safely but also find the exact time when to bring the perfect amount of humor / morale boost to power your way wherever the destination. Elayna, your leadership in managing the boat along with being the amazing cook for your travels (which deserves more credit with your larger family). Your cheerful and heartwarming perspective even when things don't go as planed or during a catastrophe prove to just how much you care for everyone and everything aboard your home. We all have some idea of how life REALLY is especially those who take pride in their work of Vlogging their travels. To do something like this while looking after your family is probably extremely stressful. Seeing how far you have come in life and the future your building for yourselves and little ones is amazing. I genuinely feel the power of how much you both love each other and your family. Sometimes when I'm watching your older videos I find myself uplifted simply by Elayna goofing around on deck while Riley may be having a nap ( most likely completely aware she's doing so but having a blast) or by the way you both smile and look at each others eyes particularly after completing one of many difficult feats in life. I always finish watching your videos with almost (for lack of better words) a euphoric emotional and physical body high of joy and calmness. Personally I have been on a very extreme, life changing journey the last few years. A lot of grief, sadness and anxiety, however on the other end of the spectrum comes peace, new found pleasure in the small things in life and a wider sense of imagination. Your family has assisted me in a way that words cannot be apprehended. Truly. I wish you all the best of luck with your new home and may it bring your safe passage wherever your dreams lead you. Looking forward to your next videos as you begin another chapter in life. Much love from Chicago, Zack. Apologies for the long message, as I ramble on from a long 12 hour shift before catching some sleep.

[@Zschneider91]

PS: love the cartoon animated sketches. Hope to see more!

[@chamberpaint]

Lovely message. Now I don’t need to write MY long rambling message. I’ll just say DITTO from San Francisco! The kids bring me so much joy & peace from pain & loss, with laughs along the way. Be well. 💗💕

WOW Riley and Elayna, This episode of SLV was so informative and educational too! thanks Mates, you're going to the next level of content for this channel !! Love learning things about your love of Sailing. Sure can't wait till your new Trimaran is complete and you put out to sea again with her!!

[@willmills1388]

I just love your videos and the whole family. The love flows through you all!

[@samstainer2288]

Being involved with the boat build it’s such a good idea. You learn more about the boat and you really appreciate it and can have more of a say as it’s being built. By the time it’s finished you will know everything in and out and know all the systems better then if you had just picked up the boat after it was built. Without seeing before.

[@annabellegettingwell1531]

This episode was so fun and informative. I may never need any of this information in my lifetime. But it was fun to watch you guys opening all the packages. Getting excited for the final touches and pulling it all together. It’s not relevant to you, but I have lived vicariously through your channel for a while now. I e been recovering from some ugly debilitating side affects from C19 and this has been a lifesaver! Thank you! Love you both!

[@saskiacole6537]

Fell off my chair laughing when Colin came on , made my day. Good one guys, well done.

[@carenclemmons5002]

Go Elayna, track those electrons. A jumping quick lass like yourself can surely learn a new connect the dot scenario. No worries. Read it til the lights come on.

[@Rphawkins]

At the 52 second mark, the aerial shot of the building with the red roof on the lower right with the white addition on the left was where my office was in 1970. The building was the Vietnamese Navy Headquarters Hai Quan Vietnam Cong Hoa HQVNCH. I faced the statue of Tran Hung Dao. It brings back memories when I was a Navy LT (Hai Quan Trung Uy) working with DD Tran van Chon.

[@gotpatience]

Getting more and more excited for y'all!

[@cliffdavis5244]

Love Colin's channel and his get-up here - looking forward to watching you learn and crush all the boat's systems, Elayna! You can do it!

[@willjohnson9368]

You are in THE BEST POSITION with your new boat.... to have electronics removed from circuits when not in use... ( isolated)... yes when underway you need them... but when at anchor or docked... have all that are not needed... removed from any and all electrical connections.... sure the builders want you to burn them up and buy new....

[@TLJH53]

[@ruthjolly]

You guys have me rolling on the floor. Riley's face, hardcore stare, reminds me SO much of how Garrett (my hubby) stares off when I excitedly ramble. Love watching you guys. Thanks for continuing to spread love and comedy! Yes, Elayna 👏

I can't wait to see the final picture of your Beautiful Boat!! Nice job saving the baby goat Riley!

[@trueconspiracies7945]

IMO - For lightning you need a Spiky (and well grounded) antenna on top of your boat as it helps to discharge the electrons into the sky rather than store them which causes a higher discharge potential.

[@wildaltarose]

I don’t understand much from a technical standpoint, but I must say this did help. Thank you to Colin for the laugh, it hard to make fun of a serious situation, but I laughed out loud with the first glance. It’s great watching the boys grow up, what an exciting and educational life they will have. I can see how excited you are about your new home, and I am so happy for you. Can’t wait to see the grand reveal at the end of this boat build and the launching!

[@Kiwisail]

The pink paint is referred to as Guide Coat. Often just thinners with some colour tint in it, but there is ready to go Guide Coat for $$$. This was applied by rag but is often sprayed. It allows the paint team to see they have properly sanded the surface and helps identify any low spots that may require filling and then priming.

[@ellencutspaper571]

This one was fantastically informative and really entertaining. I started laughing when Professor Electro decided to take a bath… 😂 and the extra giant glasses!!!
