Your videos are a bit long, and I click on them with the intent of fast forwarding through a lot of it in the name of saving time. However, your content is so interesting and so engaging with excellent editing that I end up viewing every single second. Nice work and thanks for the great videos that we enjoy watching from Kenosha, WI

Very cool video. Loved it! I grew up in Northern Door in the summers and currently live in Illinois. Our current boat was purchased from the dock (I think even the exact slip) you stayed on in Sturgeon Bay (Centerpointe) during that hellacious storm (excellent timing 😬!). We currently keep our boat in Kenosha (Southport). Maybe I’ll look you up next summer when we take a fleet of boats from our marina to Lakeshore state park for Summerfest. Enjoy!!!

A great journey guys. Thank you for taking us along.

We will be in Milwaukee for summerfest. We are #GreatLakesYachting onboard SummerWind. We would love to connect with you and perhaps exchange video resources

I'm glad you guys got to see the singing fountain.

She’s a beautiful Great Lakes cruiser.

Lucky lake was so calm nice easy run.

By chance I stumbled upon your Sull'Acqua episodes. What an enjoyable watch with two people who are so passionate about their M.Y. What a shame you had to sell the M.Y. Are you back on the water ?

I really like that appreciation is expressed often in the videos. The beautiful scenery, the sunsets etc. is not taken for granted but really noticed for what it is. It is amazing to be out in nature on the water and is a gift.

Great videos - a what a blessing to be able to buy a brand new boat 👍 best regards and safe travels, from Denmark/Søren

Ahoy Really enjoy your videos and trips Stay safe

WOW, wasn't expecting you to sell, thanks for a great set of videos and I wish you well for the future.☺

Hi, just found your channel and have watched all episodes, really enjoyed them. I love Absolute boats and am thinking about getting a 52 Fly but my only concern is IPS, I have heard that pod drives can be problematic, what is your opinion of them. Also are you happy with the Williams jet tender or do you wish you had bought a tender with outboard? Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Awesome and Congratulations. We look forward to watching your journey

Awesome. Thanks for sharing

My favorite lake time is 20:00. Enjoyed your comments and the views.🎉 thanks

It has been fantastic following your journey. There have been so many of you I have been following doing this trip, between how you did it and the loop. I have really learned a lot and enjoyed the fact that there are so many of us like-minded boaters, thank you for sharing your life with the TH-cam world. Good luck in you future endeavors. My wife and I have 5 more year before we can start. Looking forward to selling our current boat and purchasing our journey vessel. Cheers!

Wonderful videos and beautiful boat. The 52 is the best Navetta. Cheers!

Awsome. Congrats!!

Hello great videos I have watched episode1-6 just wanted to pick your brain about the process of selection

Loved the journey, you did it in style. Thank you very much for sharing it on You Tube -- I enjoyed every posting.

Great job! Would have loved to see a video of all the things you used and loved on the boat in the bahamas and any changes or advice you had. I want to do exactly what you did! Thanks for sharing!!

It was an epic journey, one that I plan to emulate except for several years not just one. Thank you for taking us along and I hope that your health and happiness continues. Such an abrupt ending that left me with one question, why quit? Good luck in whatever direction you decide to go.

Thanks for sharing! My dream yacht or a variant of it!

You have had a nice time on your yacht. If you miss the relaxing sound of a yacht engine running, you can find some video on my channel. Feel free to subscribe. Enjoy sailing. Absolute has not a deep V hull . Is it easy to steer?

Great video! So sad you are selling her. Best wishes for your new adventure!

Fabulous filming of your amazing trip. Loved the music too. So Happy for you both. ❤

I was so excited when I saw episode 6 was up never thinking it would be the final episode. Another awesome video,wonderful story telling and background information. I was sad that you sold “our” boat but I think both of you might have another adventure up your rain slicker. I’ll be checking. Lol great job and adventure. Loved it. Thanks

Thanks for sharing your experiences. I enjoyed it very much, especially to get an idea of boating in other pars of the world! All the best for your future!

So nice to see another family enjoying their yacht the way it was intended! There are so many about boats, but not the families that enjoy them! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for allowing us to come along on your adventure 👍👌

What are the plan for your next boat, are you thinking about another motor yacht or maybe a sail catamaran ?

Sad to watch your final moments. As owner of a Volvo IPS boat that we usually cruise at 30-33 on Lake Michigan, I’m curious as to whether you considered speeding up through those narrow entries with major currents? Or maybe too shallow to be comfortable with speeding up?

magnifique voyage, bravo et merci pour la vidéo

Fantastic Thank you so much for sharing.

Love the videos, thanks for sharing your adventures with us! ❤

You are an inspiration to me as you are living the life I want to live. I have watched a few of your videos and I want to follow your lead soon.

Had to pause at 6:15 to ask if you would kindly relay this to your Father. " Sir, I want to say Thank You for your service to our Country and Welcome Home! I salute you with heart felt gratitude and admiration." Thanks for passing the message along.

Ive seen many videos for your boat. Trust me, nothing like an owner perspective. May I suggest that you create a video series that curtails all of your views good, bad or indifferent. Another wonderful video. Keep them coming and thanks for letting us alongside!

The first video of yours (#5) I watched just prior to viewing this one. I was impressed with everything as I commented. This being my 2nd video I am no less taken. The two of you should be proud of yourselves as well as your boat. Great choice! Can't wait to have the opportunity to view more. A big thank you for having us onboard and a hello from your newest subscriber in St.Louis.

My first visit to your channel. Well, I am inpressed. Really nice discriptions of your travels. Great video. Nice drone shots, wonderful videography, and background music all blended together by good editing! The two of you really bring things together by your warmth and charming style while showing a humble heart. Well Done!

Thank you for the great videos. I see you traveled 3252 nautical miles and 364 hours driving, that only works out to about 8-9 MPH? Are those driving hours or engine running hours?

Wonderful !!!! Thank you for the upload !!! xxxoxo

We are honored that you included us! It was great spending time with you. 😊

I really enjoyed this! It looks like a well deserved and a well handled trip. The Navetta looks great. I’ve toured a few at boat shows and it just seems superb! Looking forward to more!

Terrific content - subscribed! It's been content like this that has inspired me to make videos about my experience on the water in Brooklyn, NY on my channel. I love seeing all the places in the country people boat from!

Epic! Happy to learn that you cleared Trent-Severin (how beautiful was that!!) and part of the Erie Canal, I guess it's the western end that you need to be under 15'6" for. Great teamwork; great production quality-- each episode builds from the prior. Nicely done.

Glad to find this video! As to #2, the motorized tilting antenna/ radar mount-- what is is your Air Draft/ Bridge Clearance before and after tilting? The nice footage of the green bridge-- is its height known? I had been inquiring if it would be possible to hinge mount the entire hardtop support arch and gain feet instead of inches, to optimize ones route options on the Great Loop and elsewhere. Appreciate your insights. Thanks!

Just found and watched your 5 videos. In video 4 you are docked at MEYR in Holland kitty-corner from our Sabre. Although we live in and boat out of Chicago, we have had our boats serviced and stored with MEYR for 15 years for their top notch quality. I am enjoying your videos AND would appreciate a few closeups of your Garmins while at cruise to get a sense of your performance and fuel consumption besides in no wake and slow zones. Maybe you could provide commentary of actual results. Keep up the fascinating posts.

Awesome great video!
