It's so nice and encouraging to see a real sailing couple on youtube that gets by without clickbaiting. I can feel that you make your videos because you enjoy sharing your beautiful moments and not because you have to. That's true freedom, keep it as long as you can. Best wishes to you and Claudia from Munich Klaus
Thanks we really appreciate these words. Glad that you’re enjoying the non-drama sailing videos definitely not here to make money just to share how amazing sailing and this simple life style is 🙏🙏
Brilliant and beautiful as Spirit glides on like a sleek glass sailplane in the sky. Stopping to meet beautiful people & stories along the way 👍🏻🐬 💫 Borrego Springs Desert-San Diego, Ca
Really love the channel. I've been intrigued by that Hammerhead for a while now too. So cool to see all the work you've put in. And great vibes! You have me inspired. Any chance of getting some rougher weather footage one day? Might be cool to see...
Always a pleasure to check in with you. I suppose the next video will have banana bread. You should at least be learning Italian from your better half and I’m sure she’s proficient in French. Just giving you a hard time because your life is so ideal. Cheers.
What an idyllic spot in Tonga. Obviously you are capable of overhauling winches by yourself which begs the question about the cruising community you are interacting with. Does everybody help everybody or are there small groups of friends that have earned mutual trust that help each other? For landlubbers there are towns where doors can be left unlocked. How does it work for seafaring folk? Is it a high trust society at sea?
Yes the community does help each other a lot and it’s a wonderful community to be a part of. Like everything though there’s always the occasional thing to complain about about overall it’s very welcoming and helpful to each other. We’ve never locked any of our boats up and that’s nearly forty years of living on the water!
Dam had to book on the p&o pacific explorer for January to soutn pacific. I miss my boat gardy. Livin it now thru you gardy. Working at see just doesnt do it like cruising life.
Hey mate can only imagine how you’re feeling. The four years we didn’t have a boat was good but never as good as living on the ocean is. Hope we get to see you out here sometime. Where are you based these days?
Still amazed how well she sails.
Us too mate she’s such a great boat. Got some awesome footage coming up in the next few videos even managed to get the drone out!
@@TrimaranSpiritXL Thanks for sharing, looking forward to it!
God bless Spirit

I feel the same way, these videos never feel like "content" just amazing experiences.

5:08 I just love your boat-and-ocean footage, it really portrays the vibe.
Awesome thank you 🙏

Magnificent day on the water👌Yeah,I saw your reacher luff a little just as you commented “a little too deep”.Best wishes always 🙂
Love it our viewers have got eagle eyes! 😁 in a seaway she struggle to go deeper than 160’s without the reacher collapsing. Need a deeper sail 😎
