    Not many things more satisfying then power washing. You can get carried away and just power wash everything in sight. You two did a amazing job bringing this boat back to life. Congrats!

    Well I am a 60 man who loves life and what it brings. I am so proud of both of you for the journey taken and yet to take. Just keep it up and you both will inspire others to do the same and maybe even more. Take good care of each other won’t you.

    You guys have the biggest challenge ahead of you but your sense of mother earth will carry you through your adventure, if we had one hundred million more people like you the earth would change for the better, keep your boat dry sail like you mean it. God bless you both.

    In 1995 I bought my Pahi 31 and started on exactly the same hull repairs as you have had to do. I lived on the boat (Gadzooks) for a few years and loved it, but the pressures of life caught up with me and Gaddy had to go. When I look back I remind myself that “life is what happens to you while you are too busy planning it”. Stay ahead of the game, stay healthy and stay safe. But most importantly enjoy your journey, I will be following.

  • @ProfessorGilligan1
    @ProfessorGilligan1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I love that print outfit Emily. Plus, the boat restoration is beautiful. I wish I knew enough about sailing to venture such a journey. I’ve viewed other on-the-water channels of some beautiful places and experiences that took me way back to when I was a little boy fishing with my Dad and grandparents. Luv both of you and your spirit of togetherness.

    14 days! Exemplary effort. Viva the greater economic benefit of recycling and re utilising the energies previously exhausted in the gathering of necessary resources. I hope you have your sea legs, it's a different game upon the high seas,though often quite a serious affair, with the acquired understanding of how the good ship " Pearl" handles and experience, smooth sailing is my wish for ye and may your sails billow and fill with wind upon your Command. You're both proving once more the greatness of the Power of Love. Ahoy and raise the anchor alongside the mainsail.

  • @evertdevries8814
    @evertdevries8814 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wow, living the dream! Never had somebody resilient enough to even attempt to share that sort of thing with. It's not the boat, it's not the dream and it's not the money - although you will need a fair bit of that - even if the boat was just a dollar. What you do need is somebody with what I call throughput, or in old-timer-speak, somebody with 'sand', somebody who stays the journey and sees it through. Guys, go.... Enjoy, Sail away, hither and yon. Go upon the waves and with the breezes and may they always be breezes and if the breezes be a bit rough that they be not storms. More than green with envy.

  • @TheFalcro1234

    I am a car guy not a boat guy, I prefer holes in the ground to throw $$ into rather than holes in the water. That said this was a very satisfying video and I foiund myself getting more and more excited to see her "finished". I was overjoyed when she touched the water again. Welcome to the beginning of your next adventure.
