Absolutely grand to see the pure delight on Adam's face, and seeing you Khiara so relaxed and seeming you are on the vacation of a lifetime. Looking forward to next Friday when we can join you again.
I've just finished reading the Sept issue of Ocean Sailor magazine, in which the pair of you feature so strongly. I hope the two of you are braced for the large influx of new subscribers that's on the way!
Hi Guys, great vid the boat is a absolutely amazing piece of Sailing mastery!! Your excitement is contagious I too like you would love to see you guys in one day the music choice was excellent. Stay Safe stay well Gaz form the GC in Aus
Your best you two!!! Your steady work through is making A+ etraxs come into your life that is wonderful to see. But now I have to wait!?!?!? Lmao. Thank you guys! K your a hot red head mess that is wonderful!!! Mask hit me head!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Lmao!!! A+ you two! Thank you!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I just got back from sailing the coast of Turkey for a month. I wish I had known about Kraken I would have loved to go see their boats. It was terribly hot when I was there but it doesn't look that hot in your videos. What dates were you there?
I really dislike people making comments about Khiara, or follow this channel because she is pretty etc; SO shallow, I would never be like that. I'm here for the sailing, the yacht, the travel, the knowledge, to see different parts of the world, the struggle etc ... and yet, by gum Khiara looks good! She has really blossomed somehow! For balance - and genuinely meant - so has Adam; he has never looked happier! It might be the Kraken's doing
Yes, being in Turkey and sailing a Kraken does make you blossom 😁 I recently discovered this channel and absolutely loving it! Catching up with the back episodes. Also falling in love with Kraken. Can't wait for more
When we were sailing (40 + years ago), we suffered from bigger-boat-its. Frankly, we lusted for a Tayana 42!! Oh how times have (not) changed!!! Love your channel. From your friends in Canada. L&D
Now that was to short! The constant smile on Adam's face tells me he just might become a bank robber! He has to have that boat and I think Khiara will agree! It's beautiful and can't wait to really see it in action next Friday!
As someone that has worked in marinas I know that I couldn't even afford to have this boat washed and cleaned regularly. I think most people that can afford things like this don't actually use them for their intended purpose.
It's pretty clear they need to give you a Kraken 50! You two would be the greatest salespeople they could possibly find. I'm thinking of buying one and I don't really even want to go cruising!
Wow! - what a fine boat - the Kraken. I'm fairly new to your channel. I started at the beginning and am on episode 40. I skipped ahead just to see where you are and leave a comment and a thank you. You two have produced a fine series. I have limited sailing experience. (Lived on a small island in WA state and sailed a dory - almost daily for 3 years) Later had the use of a Wauquiez Pretorien 35 for a while around Seattle. I'm looking forward to the rest of your adventures.
What a treat to be able to sail with a Yacht builder! And how proud Dick must be to have a job/company like that! Really good camera work. I could get the feeling of the heel.
What's this? demise of the Falcon and rise of the KRAKEN!!! whwhahahahah :) Better watch to find out!! :) Now that is a pretty lady on the blue!! looking sharp!
50ft kraken is £570k (ish), 77k subscribers, £7 each, if we all chipped in we could get them a kraken easily. I'm poor af and reffiting my own old boat but I'd happily throw a tenner in if we could get everybody too.
God, I love those boats and what they represent! Freedom! (FYI- “God was stated in prayer! Not said in Vain! God bless all those that bring light to this sometimes dark world.
The only thing I know to say is that Adam was like a child getting his first favorite toy the morning of Christmas!!! HE never stopped smiling What a great episode and Kiarha I can't wait for you to take us through the inside. HOW delightful both your smiles were on this passage. Adam truly was like a kid in a candy store. Great episode!!!
To be honest, you two could be doing anything, I think, and people would watch and subscribe. You're just so fresh, and forthright, and real. It's always a highlight of my day to catch up with whatever you're up to.
I wonder how cockpit protection is achieved for cold or wet weather? The open ocean can get very cool especially at night in latitudes far from the equator.
Maybe you could work out a deal where you get a barebones / partially finished hull and do the majority of the work yourself? Or maybe an lease agreement like la vagabond?
Hopefully we can convince them that letting us shmucks run around in that weapon will be a good choice for them 😂😂😂 I think we might be a million subs shy though.
@@SailingMillennialFalcon Well, maybe little a shy in subs at the moment... but absolutely kracking reps of the blue water passion and demographic. Dont undersell yourselves! The world is your Oyster... or in this case your Kraken!
Kiara, you are such a gorgeous young lady. As a couple you both compliment each other and the sailing knowledge is very good. At 71 I am prepping a 32 footer to circumnavigate solo. Great knowledge from you both. Thankyou!!!
Most modern furling gear has 2 slots to enable wing on wing sailing on one jib. Like everything sailing its a compromise, id rather have a cutter with an extendable bow sprit for a code zero. Wing on wing is all cutesy for youtube vids, but those watching dont have to live with the rolling it causes.
Figure how to do some creative financing and buy one and start a charter business!!!! It will pay the mortgage!! You both have the personality, experience and motivation Get your yacht master certificate and go!!
Wow what a great boat, I am really enjoying this. I like what I see of this boat. You have a great team and perfect sailing what more can you ask for. Really looking forward to next week. This is the first new modern build boat that really has me thinking. But to do it I would have to sell my airplane. That sit down discussion you had with the builder was excellent I have watched it twice, because what he said really struck home. In relation to a cruising boat and that is exactly what we want. It is beautifully designed. I will tell you how good it is my wife actually sat down and watched the whole discussion and that is first.
Poor guy here but I get ONE ticket for the lottery and IF I will my little Gal and I will contribute for a new boat of your choice. We enjoy your videos Adam and Khiara
OK, I'm convinced. I think I have a new fantasy boat! Just need to figure out a way to pay for it. They are definitely not cheap though it's understandable given both the bluewater characteristics and the level of fit and finish. Really really nice boat.
Love ❤ this boat 🚢 hope we can get the money 💰 to bay a boat. Bank robber can work. Love sailing ⛵. Maby one day dreams can come true. Love ❤ your videos and enjoy every moment ❤ ♥ 💕 💖
Interesting interview you did with the founder, I wasn't familiar with this manufacture, but the draft seems a bit to uncompromising for the east coast of the U.S. and Bahamas. Interested in hearing your take.
I was noticing the sort of 'U' shape of the captain's chair and thought it would be a good idea to have a 'U' shaped seat on rollers so that when the boat heeled over the seat would roll to keep the skipper vertical and maybe save a back or neck from going out from the twisting and turning.
OK Adam, you are in love and I see why. I do wonder, why do the shrouds connect at the deck behind the mast? I can see it would strengthen the rig when running, but they also block the main from fully extending.
Swept back spreaders and thus rear mounted top caps is fairly common these days. I’m reasonably sure it’s to facilitate some pre bend in the mast. Sails resting on the spreaders is a problem even for perpendicular spreaders. The Falcon has this issue too. The Solent rig sort of circumvented this by removing the need for the mainsail when running deep downwind thus keeping it off the spreaders.
If you two keep producing the type and quality of content you have been of late, those extra million subs won't be long in coming. You have matured immensely (as sailors, boat technicians, videographers, story tellers, editors--the whole bit) since you started the channel and it has been fun to be able to witness it as you take us all along for the ride (or sail as it may be). It’s a pleasure each week to get the notification which is an invitation to sit back, relax, grab a favorite beverage and watch you sail, explore, and grow. It would be great for you to work a deal to have a Kraken 50 as the Millennial Falcon II. Keep your eyes on the goal of sailing the world and allowing all of us to join you in the adventures through wonderfully-produced videos and I’m confident great things will happen. God Bless and happy sailing.
This boat sits on my top 5 for my next boat. Oyster 495, Wauquiez 48, Contest 49,50, or 55, Kraken 50, Others to consider Halberg 50, Amel 50, Hylas , Discovery, GunFleet, maybe Swan too.
I think that the shape of you two faces and the sizes of your heads changed shapes because all you two were doing was smiling 24/7. But Way more than usual with a ton more muscles being tightened up. 😁👍👍✌️ great job mates.
@@SailingMillennialFalcon I think sometimes in the video while you guys were at top speed. I swear I seen Adam behind the wheel and he looked like he transformed into the skipper he's going to be. Great job Kiara. You didn't look like a wreck, but a lady having the time of her life onboard with her dreams. Great on you mates. top stuff

Standby for another 3 episodes of our adventures aboard the Kraken 50 and a full walkthrough of the boat and the yard at the end! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Such a gorgeous boat! Looking forward to the remaining episodes.
I noticed Dick has two mates operating the winches. So, this is not a boat ideal for single handed sailing like the Amel 50 eh.
What's really great to see, is the love of sailing, the actual act of sailing, that you both exude.
Great episode.
Much love from Cornwall, UK.
One of our team grew up in Cornwall :)
Your videos make me smile!
Your comment has made me smile too! Win win 🤟🏼🤩
wow that was a quick watch! Such a nice boat.
Absolutely grand to see the pure delight on Adam's face, and seeing you Khiara so relaxed and seeming you are on the vacation of a lifetime. Looking forward to next Friday when we can join you again.
What a fanatastic video!
It's called WING ON WING Adam and downwind doesn't get any better. :)
Luv u guys and your awesome personality. You can tell you both were in heaven, understandably 😁
Happy as a dog with two tails!! Thanks for watching. We luv ya too 🤗
I had a good laugh when Adam said that he would have to become a bank robber.

Beautiful youngsters on a beautiful yacht 070223
Beautiful yacht! Looks very comfortable to sail in. Lol, Mine’s still faster! ;-P
As always, thanks for producing a great video!
In boom furling , A couple of electric sheet winches solid dodger & shed be OK .
Nice boat but i still like the Moody.

@@ln5747 Oh no, no hate possible: I have succumbed to her charms!
##😁😁
That metal banging is terrible. Why do they let it bang?
1st! 😆
Hats off to Capt. Dick. Those are some fine vessels he's putting out!
When we were sailing (40 + years ago), we suffered from bigger-boat-its. Frankly, we lusted for a Tayana 42!! Oh how times have (not) changed!!! Love your channel. From your friends in Canada. L&D

It was the fastest 18 minutes I've ever had!
I could have watched an hour of this one quite easily. I was surprised at how roomy the centre cockpit was with everyone underway as well.
Wow! This whole video is a feather in your cap for sure. It's a huge win for Kraken too. What a great way to show off what they offer.
As someone that has worked in marinas I know that I couldn't even afford to have this boat washed and cleaned regularly. I think most people that can afford things like this don't actually use them for their intended purpose.

That is certainly a premier offshore boat.
What a treat to be able to sail with a Yacht builder! And how proud Dick must be to have a job/company like that! Really good camera work. I could get the feeling of the heel.
Apparently Kraken is the Turkish answer to Hallberg Rassy. Extremely well thought and well built boat for cruisers.
What's this? demise of the Falcon and rise of the KRAKEN!!! whwhahahahah :) Better watch to find out!! :) Now that is a pretty lady on the blue!! looking sharp!
Thanks for sharing this ride with all of who are stuck ashore! The boat looks amazing and a lot of fun to be aboard. Blessings for you all!

The Kraken 50 is an amazing boat. Buy why no in-mast furling?
Gosh. A new boat without superfluous helms. And only one rudder. Go figure.
Bro, if u get the money for a Kraken 50, upgrade your girlfriend to newer model as well. I recommend Russia or Eastern Europe
Is she worthy enough for rough and high seas? Can she sailed single handedly? Plz reply me.
The only thing I know to say is that Adam was like a child getting his first favorite toy the morning of Christmas!!! HE never stopped smiling
What a great episode and Kiarha I can't wait for you to take us through the inside. HOW delightful both your smiles were on this passage. Adam truly was like a kid in a candy store. Great episode!!!
I’m still trying to work out which is the most gorgeous… the girl or the boat….?
Can you charter a kraken 50 and if you can How much do it cost?
What a awsome vessel hope to have one someday
I am so happy for you, 😇🥰❤️🔥🌎🤲🙌 good fair winds, long health life, peace, joy, 👁🙏Amen & Amen.

Beautiful boat. Kraken boats are top-notch and one of the best in the world
I wonder how cockpit protection is achieved for cold or wet weather? The open ocean can get very cool especially at night in latitudes far from the equator.
Nice boat and nice to see you two enjoying sailing on a new boat where things aren’t failing or breaking. The price difference though……
Maybe you could work out a deal where you get a barebones / partially finished hull and do the majority of the work yourself? Or maybe an lease agreement like la vagabond?
Hopefully we can convince them that letting us shmucks run around in that weapon will be a good choice for them 😂😂😂 I think we might be a million subs shy though.
@@SailingMillennialFalcon Well, maybe little a shy in subs at the moment... but absolutely kracking reps of the blue water passion and demographic. Dont undersell yourselves! The world is your Oyster... or in this case your Kraken!
I thought the same thing, you should be selling around in that Kracken to market that boat for them 🌞 that surely is A gorgeous sailing yacht!
Adam's a total kid in a candy store here (and Mom just gave him $5...). I love the energy!
Kiara, you are such a gorgeous young lady. As a couple you both compliment each other and the sailing knowledge is very good. At 71 I am prepping a 32 footer to circumnavigate solo. Great knowledge from you both. Thankyou!!!
Start your own channel mate I’d watch
Is the rudder Orca proof?
Your last two videos have been pure sailing. Loved it. I’m on my third round watching.
5:20 Do you call that "Hello, boom!" as well?
Things like that boat are for the very rich, or very lucky people who aren’t
We all just have to wait 40years to own one 🤪
Kraken should pay you guys for making their yacht more beautiful.
500 (s)mile TEST SAIL :-)
Whats protecting the prop?
Most modern furling gear has 2 slots to enable wing on wing sailing on one jib.
Like everything sailing its a compromise, id rather have a cutter with an extendable bow sprit for a code zero.
Wing on wing is all cutesy for youtube vids, but those watching dont have to live with the rolling it causes.
I hope that’s synthetic teak.
That was a Kraken video 😉
I'm jealous, I enjoyed watching you guys having so much fun. Adam see if you can get a deal on 2. I'll buy one. (For the right price).
It is so nice to see the excitement in her eyes! This Yacht, just suits her better!
Release The Kraken !
Figure how to do some creative financing and buy one and start a charter business!!!! It will pay the mortgage!!
You both have the personality, experience and motivation
Get your yacht master certificate and go!!
You lucky …….. people, looks amazing, looking forward to the next video.
I have always been a big fan of Oyster yachts for blue water. Thanks for opening my eyes to Kraken.
Money goes to money as they say .

"Mar-ma-ra" not "Mam-aara". Have fun.

She fits like a glove. Now, you need to figure out a way to pay for her. Luxury cruising is a possibility.
I’m not even a sailor and haven’t been on a sailboat since I was a kid. But I already know that if I ever win the lottery I’m buying a Kraken yacht!!
Interesting interview you did with the founder, I wasn't familiar with this manufacture, but the draft seems a bit to uncompromising for the east coast of the U.S. and Bahamas. Interested in hearing your take.
Having sailed a cutter rig 1000s of ocean miles, I grew envious of excellent Solent rigs and the big advantages they offer. 🇨🇦
12!
Please don't let this channel become la vag.

Gotta say this is giving the Amel a run for its money.....
Enjoy sailing ⛵️ sailboat video ! Mike from Missouri
hoy! bugger, you got to sail that!! lol, sorry i had to watch this twice through
When are you planning to move aboard a Kraken 50 as your new home?
She goes like a Steam Train mate easy on the eye. Lovely boat. Fair winds cheers n beers Marty
They would do well being your new sponsors 👍👍👍👍👍😊
