Ahoy everyone!
My name is Nike and I have been living and sailing on my sailboat Karl since 2013. After a massive refit marathon, I finally cast off the lines and learnt to solo sail my 37-foot Reinke Super 10 that I called "Karl". I am publishing videos (at the moment every two weeks) about the ups and downs of living, repairing and sailing my boat.
Since January 2022, I have a new permanent crew member: my furry friend Boga. When I started out, I did not know much about boat repair or solo sailing. Since I am still out there, I hope that my story inspires others, to chase their dreams, even if they might think they are not cut out for it. There is always a way, so I'll see you out there!

Thanks to everybody who has supported the creation of these video and has shared this epic adventure with me so far. It would not have been the same without you!
Lots of ocean love, Nike🧜‍♀, Boga 🐾 and KARL ⛵

Nike always reminds me of my Grandmother… hardworking and fun. And the list of jobs she completes…outstanding sailor.

[@sunline24]

Of all the sailing channels I have or do watch over the years, you have always remained at the top of the list for enjoyable content. You have a unique video and editing style that I really like.

[@markmark2080]

Her ability to capture beauty and her editing skills are equal to the whole of any corporate media...imho

[@surferx66]

Agreed, plus her personality adds a lot! And I love listening to her voice.

[@runristaren2]

Yayyy You always find things you looking for in the last place you look.. great to see Carl back in the water Prost 🍻

[@skaraborgcraft]

Never a dull moment....... Enjoy Karls clean and slippery bottom!

[@craigkepchar2619]

I'm sure you're as excited as we all are to get back to sailing Karl. You did a great job putting this episode together. All the Love, All the Power

[@saqibkhan7377]

I am a geography professor and I watch your videos with great interest. Next time you come across an ocean current, please make a detailed video of it. Also, explain how you gather information about weather during a voyage. Thank you!

[@rickchollett]

Not only is your smile contagious, it brightens your eyes! Hugs from Texas!

[@markmark2080]

One thing that makes a YT channel really interesting to me (besides subject matter) is the ability to follow the locations on google earth, if I can't do that I'll lose interest fairly fast. You have ALWAYS made it easy to pin point the locations resulting in a 'feel like I'm there' experience. There are a number of channels that should be shown in school 'social studies' or 'geography' classes that would do much more than lectures or book reading. Your channel has been a wonderful window to coastal Central America, a place MANY wonder about but few experience...❤You, Boga, Maria, and Paul, AND all you do.

[@RoyClare]

Wonderful episode, again! 🎉 PS …. when landing some stuff to make space onboard Karl, keep the propellor puller. #toptip 😅

[@skjoldmail]

When you are looking for something you will ALWAYS find it at the last place you look! The trick is to start at that place. 😁

[@WhiteSpotPirates]

@@skjoldmail 😂😂😂

[@robinfulton9057]

I know you're glad to be back on the water, nice touch with Donovan.☮

[@PinwheelHomes]

Thanks for promoting the Mision Surf Project. I have to look into it more. Looks like a great cause and maybe a reason to travel there. Viele Gruesse aus Kanada. HaJo

[@bonthewater9214]

Great video Beautiful ❤❤❤

[@cvs8545]

Your videos always put a smile on my face!

[@electricsushi]

Can't wait to meet your new crewman!

[@russellthomson5571]

Use res-q-stel under the prop. Easy to get off next time.

[@GoPoundSalt]

5:05 baton is for the mosquitos Impeller, a grand classic. Great work.

[@2000jago]

Introduce the new crew? And more Boga footage please! :)

[@njbaskipper]

Good morning..first of all you have done a very good job with Carlitos 😅 P.S. If you look at Yoilp GL-21 you will realize how important it is to have a portable filter between the pump hose and the diesel cans or at the mouth of the Carlitos tank, you considerably avoid mixing water in your fuel. Hadn't you had a bad time in Costa Rica with this matter? Well done 🇩🇪

[@gunterford7014]

nice video as always.. fair winds nike.. g

I always put Important stuff where i can find it, and never see it again LOL AWESOME Vid ;-)

[@sailorstu]

Welcome back to the water 😊

[@SailingPAPILLON]

Best 12min of my day! As I sit under the boat in the shade! There is a new boat where Karl sat, “zephyr”-sailing with vampires on YT is what the hull says! 😂☺️ Ty for the video, I needed a push! We’ve been at it only for 1wk of 12hr days but mannnn…burnout happens fast! PS: how did you fly the drone at the marina? We were told it was not allowed. Love the shots tho!! ❤❤

[@DennisMacdonald-r7d]

Nice happy to see u splashed Nike

[@bogsplash8612]

Glad you moved out of the mould trap room. Good to see Karl back in his element.

[@faelsinnes]

When the impeller shreds itself , it's a fiddly little job finding the bits 😅😅 but well worth it.

[@Mechone11]

Never use a pipe wrench on shaft ,use a piece of wood off the prop to hull or ground to stop shaft from turning pipe wrench will damage shaft

[@Coyotehello]

Niiice. So much work, we are going to our boat in Maple Bay BC later today for the weekend, to prep it. Next week we have ten days of sailing yeah!

[@Cacheola]

Splish splash she was takin' a bath... boy oh boy, you're handy :)

[@AngusJohnson-ei1kk]

Thank you .

[@johnbianchi3877]

I have the same Beta engine and my impeller is much more accessible to reach and change. I LOVE my Beta 38

[@robertcarkeek8391]

❤

[@johnwishart7950]

lovely again

[@olegtkachenko2556]

Thank you, Nike! do you need zink protector on propeller shaft? Please, describe Karl's behaviour with three-blades propeller instead of 2-blades one! when you have crew member onboard - you are a bit differ from you, when you are alone :)

[@tahirsargin8236]

👏👏👏

[@ezequieldiaz1950]

You shouldn't push on this issue. Privacy and safety concerns play into these decisions sometimes. It's best to respect the actions being taken and simply appreciate this content aa it's provided. Peace in every breath 🙏 🌞⛵🌴

@markmark2080

[@TheWibbo]

unbelievable you did not grease the rudder bearing.

[@WhiteSpotPirates]

@@TheWibbo I did actually 😊 it just was not in the video 🙌🏽 things went fairly quickly because they came earlier to splash us than planned which is why some stuff was not properly documented on video. 😊

[@ZoltanKinczli]

2nd best parts are when Nike is down in the engine room and the word ‘impossible’ is not in her vocabulary

[@danbutts3650]

Did I hear you call a vehicle Mexico a Tuk Tuk?

[@rolandtb3]

Making space in a tiny home.

[@rocketscientist007]

I didn't see you pack the rudder bearing with Corrosion Block grease.

[@SuperChriscunningham]

Thrush washer

[@tujuprojects]

You need a bigger boat.

[@beedonn9260]
