Anchored in beautiful Pollensa, Mallorca, we find ourselves battling intense heatwaves that test our endurance and the resilience of our small 31-foot sailboat. With our swim ladder unexpectedly broken, simple tasks become quite the challenge, and cooling off isn’t as easy as it used to be!

Much about nothing really.🙄
Dude, if yer gonna pimp out your girlfriend/wife in the thumbnail for clicks.... avoid a bearded dude in the first shot
The "pimped out girl" makes the video's and thumbnails. Whomp whomp
Let's avoid this type of language around here, as said Kim makes the videos and thumbnails. There is no such thing as pimping out, and "the bearded dude" is simply 50% of the cast for our sailing channel. Thank you for viewing, but let's keep the comments a bit more friendly next time.
Aaa! The fun of drying out every thing in the Boat 🚢 😂. Thank You for a Great video 📹 this week. Until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii! Aloha and cheers 🍻
Thats a long way away! Thanks for viewing!
Hi, pls donate airplane ticket. (Sorry for bad English)
Another great video guys. It's lovely to see how happy you both are with your chosen life. Thank you as always and catch you next time. Terry
@@stanleysteamcar thanks again Terry!
What's harder to deal with - the passage or the destination?
@@wayneferguson4878 depends on the passage and destination 😀 sometimes both are hard, sometimes easy
What was your verdict about your homemade flopper stopper?
Well, it works! It does make the roll motion more comfortable, BUT: it a big heavy thing on a small boat, so we decided to repurpose the materials elsewhere. Haven't needed it since also...
Hi guys. I've just watched the crash video before this one and I'm really glad that both of you and Pace weren't seriously hurt. The guy was a moron. What an attitude to take. I hope they caught up with him. I really enjoyed this video and nice to see you with a guest. It looks like your niece had a really enjoyable birthday with you. Stay safe and catch up soon. Terry
Not sure they did, but I think the coastguard will at some point. He is sailing under dutch flag, but was italian. The boat was in a poor state of maintenance, so his paperwork will probably raise questions. But having a guest made it all worth while!
hi guys.i am Evandro.i am new here and happy for meet you.i liked a lot .you have a beautiful boat and you two are a nice team that is inspiration for me so in the future i go to turn my sailing dreams true.congratulation and good winds.see you soon.
Hey Evandro, that is wonderful news! If you ever need some advice you can always reach out.
ok.thanks
for sure you did the right thing - thankfully there are not that many rude and irresponsible sailors out there.
@@heimslach thank you for that! Most sailors are nice, but every season there is one that just sets your teeth on edge. Part of it we guess!
Bloody brilliant channel name guy 👊
@@michaelhammond5106 😁
That was the only boat facing opposite direction????
This boat was about 3 to 400 meters upwind from us.
Lol..well earned sundowner..but seriously that guy was an idiot and you guys showed excellent seamanship and integrity..Sending good vibes
Thank you! All ended well
You guys are having the best time 😎. That's a cracking line..... "in the best case it hurts, in the worst case your die " 🤣🤣. I can't believe I was 2 videos behind. I've been busy finalising my new boat. A few weeks away now. Thank you for bringing us along as usual. Catch you soon. Terry
Haha no worries, we are not that fast with editing so you can catch up very quickly once you have the time!. Ow a new boat! That's nice! What kinda boat do you have? And do you have plans to go away with the boat? Thanks again for watching our video's :) Pace, Rutger & Kim

Thank you Terry for following our journey so far!!
⛵️⛵️
Im planning to sail from Sweden to Spain in November, not through the canals though. So Im wondering if it would be like yours? if it would be not worse than you showed on your video, then I think I could manage.. please let me know, any advice or guiding would be appreciated. Thanks and take care! =)
hey T84948, if the conditions are like ours you will manage just fine :) however: once you get into October the depressions over the atlantic start to form, we wanted to cross in the end of september but we got caught out by a covid infection on board, halting our departure. After that we saw an endless string of depressions that lasted for months. So the window we took was not ideal, but it was our best option given the season. So in short: not impossible, but the bay does not adhere to your sailing schedule in fall/winter ;) also keep in mind a depression will leave the crossing with dangerous waves for days after strong winds die, making the windows even shorter. So my advice: if you can speed up the english channel part, then I would definately do so.
@@GoodJibesOnly ok thank you very much for your answer and advice =)
@@T84948 No problem, anytime! you can always send us a DM via our Insta page if you want some input ;)
Beautiful video as usual guys. Thank you for taking the time to bring us along. Terry
You are so Kind, thank you so much Terry!
Love your videos. The drone is a nice addition. How do you takeoff and land your done while on the boat?
Hey Jeff, thanks for your comment! We are very happy with the drone as well :) We have a little homemade doohickey made out of velcro and some rope cover, which we mount on the body of the drone so it is easier to catch and hold on while grabbing it. Taking off is either from the solar panels or just the palm of our hand.
The good life! 👍
Sorry, I was late as I must've missed the notification🤦♂🤷♂. Nice new camera gear and the Pocket 3 is leaps and bounds over the GoPro. If I had a pound/Euro for every time I hear the GoPro failed/leaked/is giving up/no sound, I'd be very rich. Your 1st drone flight footage was great and I can't wait to see how you progress. Great to watch you again and thank you for sharing. Terry
Thanks Terry! We did not gather the courage to fly it whilst sailing but we'll get there 😀 but we have some very pretty anchoring shots ofcourse 😉
5 gallon bucket, rope, heavy rock, your welcome. ;). (43 foot trawler)
Haha very nice tip, thanks!
That was a nice little sail and what an experience to sail straight through a bait-ball. They were pretty busy! Also, a lovely stern-to maneuver at the end. Thank you, as always, for bringing us along. T
Thank you Terry! We'll be bringing lots more adventures soon 😀
🏖⛵
Omg! It is New Years Eve! Ok Happy New Year! Hope we can get closer to real time. Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii! Cheers 🍻
Haha yeah whoops It's hard to juggle school, work and editing sometimes We are not sailing right now so maybe we will get closer to real-time once we get back to Pace somewhere this year Happy New Year and the Best wishes for you :) Cheers!
Hi, Just came across your channel, nice production, cheery music, good commentary.....I've subscribed!
That's great to hear! Thank you 😊
Hi Guys, another great video. When the wind wants to blow your bow it will and generally at the wrong time 🤷♂. I'm glad you beat those pesky Orcas and got to the med safely. Thank you as always and catch you next time. T
Thank you! Yeah it was a bit tricky, Pace is also a boat that has it's own plan when going astern 🤣 but we learned, we need quite a big run up, max 20° of rudder and NO prop when turning. More modern boats are a little more forgiving in this aspect, but once you get a feel for it it's fine 😁
I noticed that it was doing it's own thing, but as you said it's all about knowing your own boat as they're all different. I take it Pace has a long keel to behave like that? It's getting that balance right to get the water moving over the rudder but not too fast in case it all goes wrong 😱. You're doing absolutely fantastic as far as I'm concerned 😄. T
Great episode guys. You're looking very tanned already!🌞 Loving the time-lapse sailing. Thank you for bringing us along 😊
Thanks! We are glad you like the time-lapses, we are sometimes enjoying our time so well we forget to talk to the camera 😅
😎👌
❤
Great video as always guys. Kim, you're doing a great job with the video production. What a brilliant looking repair on your car (tender LOL), it looks a really professional job. Thank you for bring us along and the time taken to produce these videos 😄👌
Thanks Terry! there will be a new video soon, we are a little pre-occupied with the storms in the med right now ;)
@@GoodJibesOnly I'll be here for whenever it drops. The main thing is to stay safe 🌩😱. T
We survived the storms and made it to a safe harbour! There will be another episode up tomorrow :)
Hey guys, lovely video with some great wing-on-wing sailing. Nicely balanced. It's always lovely to see you sailing and I like the time-lapse style and what an exit form the sheltered harbour at the start! The Maris seems an interesting boat and maybe, if they're up for it, they would let you have a little boat tour. Thank you for taking the time to bring us along with you and I look forward to the next video ☺. Terry
Thanks Terry! It was a lovely sail ❤ We can definitely ask them when we run into them again, we talk to them daily but we are about 500 miles further down in the med haha. The boat is very interesting in construction and interior (the latter being custom built by the previous owner). It even has a bathtub!
@@GoodJibesOnly I thought you might be in different directions when I wrote it as you forget about the editing delay. I'm sure you'll meet them again one day. Sail safely. T
Great video guys. Thank you for all your hard work editing in the extreme heatwave you're having at the moment😰. T
Thank you! All credits to Kim for making these video's in the incredible heat. We are taking it a little slower, so thanks for sticking with us!
@@GoodJibesOnly No problem. I'll be here waiting whenever a new episode comes out. Just look after yourselves and enjoy every moment. Good luck with your exciting maritime course as well.
Hi…just found you guys..great work..keep it up!
Hi, many thanks!
If u save some money to buy a heavy impact electrical cordless wrench u can use that to winch up the anchor. Just need to weld a socket to fit the windlass.
I saw milwaukee electric tools has these. They pull nuts of truck wheels with these.
That is a cool idea, but this winter we'll be changing our whole anchoring setup from chain locker to roller and windlass 😄 the way it is now, is absolutely terrible.
Zou wat ringen gebruiken onder de moeren en sikaflex in de boorgaten rond de bouten. Mooie arch.
Die zitten er zeker wel, we zijn niet gek ;) of ik moet Kim gaan controleren haha! En butyltape is echt veel prettiger en betrouwbaarder dan sika. Sika gebruiken we alleen onder de waterlijn of in de buurt van diesel. Via amazon goedkoop te krijgen.
Gasleiding zo kort mogelijk houden naar fornuis en een nieuwe als reserve meenemen als je niet weet hoe oud de bestaande is. Door die bestaande te buigen als die van rubber is kun je zien of er scheurtjes in zitten.
Jaartallen zijn nog oke, in t onderhoudslog staat er een notitie. Zien er prima uit verder. Over 2 jaar worden ze vervangen.
Daar dacht ik meteen aan toen ik de oxidatie zag. Goed gedacht om daar versteviging aan te brengen.
'ejecting beverage content' .. vink mooi man ❤️
Nice episode guys. Nice gentle little sail and if you're not in a rush, no point burning diesel 😄. Those Dolphins were huge and just cruising around. Thank you and catch you next time
De kip was mals
So "refreshing" to see a sailing video where people admit to seasickness. Q: did you take any remedies (pills?)? So far I've tried proper sailing without pills, and seasickness always ruins the party.
Well, we should have! Rutger was ok till he started fixing something hunched over for a while, that triggered it. In Spain we got some that is called "Biodramina" which is absolutely fantastic, do keep in mind you take the ones WITH cafeïne or you'll be KO for very long! Seasickness is odd, Rutger usually doesn't take anything unless he knows he'll be sailing in 3/4 meter swells on the beam or something. Kim usually takes either just a travel pill or the Biodramina. And besides that: a good strict watch schedule helps a lot, once you lay down it's usually gone and you get atleast 2.5 hours of relief 😀
Great video guys. That was a nice little sail down and seemed to go well. Have a great time at the BBQ and catch you next week. T
Thank you Terry! The sail was great 😁
Lovely video guys and very emotional for you. Belated happy birthday to your Mum. Keep well and catch you next time. T
Thank you Terry, Kim really needed it! ❤
Nice install guys. I think with the mods that you made, you've addressed all the talked about failings of these heaters. Thanks for taking the time to bring us these episodes. Catch you next time. T
Thanks again Terry! The heater has served us very well, it gives a really comfortable heat to the boat and it's very quiet. We absolutely love it!
