- We put the mast back up and we’re pretty dang stoked about it. The electrical is reconnected, the boom goes back on, and Kirk takes a stab at tensioning our standing rigging himself. Soulianis is finally feeling more like a sailboat again.
Hope you enjoy,
Lauren & Kirk

rabbit comes up threw the hole around the tree back down the hole.and pull his trail to tighten it lol love you guys u rock
The couple with Great Lakes common sense and uncommonly high quality videos that always feature a gentle vibe and two beautiful positive personalities. Thanks for the video!
Getting so pumped to do this ourselves!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bruce is so kool.. he's very good to have in your pocket, great mentor for you guys.. job well done..
I heard it was the "dazed brown dog" but what do I know, I have a cat. Capt. J COOL videos! I am an old man now late 50's and terribly cynical, I don't even trust water, however, seeing you two (fighting scenes deleted or not shown) it gives me hope for the world. You two are just cute. Stay safe!
It is nerve racking remembering where everything goes...our mast was off for a year while we were in the midst of a massive upgrade. Congrats to you both!
Thank you Karyn!
Your joy of stepping the mast and playing in the snow were joyful moments for us viewers. Your kid-like thrills and excitement are so refreshing. Happy sailing to you wondeful folks.
Man I never waited for an episode of anything as bad as I have waited for this video!!! Looking forwards to your adventures in the Caribbean.
My Dad taught me the bowline when I was a kid. He said make a loop and the tree is the bottom of the loop, Then the tail end is the rabbit. The rabbit comes out of the hole, runs around the tree and goes back down in his hole. Stuck with me for life!.
Been following your channel for a while. I am amazed how much you both have advanced your skills in a whole bunch of subjects and areas. VERY NICE.
Thanks Bob! It’s been a steep learning curve but we’re gobbling it all up. :)
I love it when your both smiling!
Yep! Been waiting for this one and happy to see you guys back and mast up. My favorite part was the sledding. :) Anxious to see y'all head out. Be well!
Cheers Robert!
That was too much fun and way too short! 😉. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍👍👍😍⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵
Congratulations on the mast and boom up! Well done. I still go by "the rabbit comes out of the hole around the tree and back down the hole."
The joy with which you folks live your lives never fails to leave me with a humongous smile. Thank you very, very much. Congratulations on getting your sailboat back. A joyous Easter to you both. Be safe.
Just found you guys a couple of weeks ago and binged. Finally a sailing team willing to humbly say "I don't know" -- yet confident to plow forward. I probably have 20 years on you, but yet feel like this is me with a new boat. Cheers!!
So pumped about this channel! You guys ROCK. Let's GO!
For the landlubbers ... "lines" are called ropes by us lubbers.
We enjoy watching your adventures
19,000 views and only 1,900 likes? Something must be wrong here because who wouldn't like the combination of sailing AND skiing in the same episode! Crazy, I say...CRAZY! Another great video and I expect that it won't be long before we see Soulianis moving with the power of the wind only. Btw, fired up my 150hp Evinrude last week and finally got out on the water for the first time this year! :-)
You don't realize how bad I've been waiting on this episode to see your mask going back up so you can become a sailboat again congratulations on achieving that what a great fun episode y'all are such a fun couple and I love it glad you had good times hey get out with family and friends before heading back to the boat for your trip South now we have to wait on that episode so hurry it up be safe until the next episode and Fairwinds
Your excitement and positive attitudes are infections. Congratulations on the step.
Great episode as always !
Born and raise in Montreal, had a cottage for 12 years in Mont Tremblant & my parents owned a C&C27 for 12 years. You guys are very inspiring ! Enjoy your journey !
you guys are the most loving couple sailors on all youtube, waiting for more videos .cheers from Spain.
Awesome - you are a SAILING Soulianis again! Thank you for another excellent video :)
Thanks Jeffrey!
This had been a fabulous series of videos as you travelled south. I'm in the UK and it's really opened my eyes to what an incredible and beautiful continent North America is. The guys on Ran Sailing and their voyage north did another great series up there. Really fantastic videos and not something I was expecting from a sailing channel. Love the humour and the being honest about the learning your getting along the way, helps me learn as well. Off to do some work on my mast this week, so will keep your tuning tips in mind. Thanks again for your great work.
I rate this video ... 12 out of 10! Grats on the mast! People here in SF always look at me goofy when I tell them how much I miss the snow and winters in WI. Now I can just link them to this video!
Well worth the wait! I enjoyed the info on tuning the mast..... as well as the rest of the video.
So happy for you!
Brilliant!!! Such a fun episode with laughter and happiness in bucketfull. Great, great, great.
Great episode, you always leave me wanting more!
Good to hear! We want to create more ;)
What a beaut episode,I'm always impressed by the meticulous detail ,and the thorough way every job is carried out 👍
You're a sail boat again,that's a great reason to celebrate.🥂
All the best😊
This was exciting for all of us, not just you. Congrats!
Thanks Chuck!
Unmotoring Soulianis! Weil done
It's the first time I see a TH-cam sailing couple come in my neighborhood. Hope you had a great time in Montréal either in Tremblant (this spring is so cold, I saw skiers last saturday, june 1rst, in St-Sauveur). Keep up guys, every things you do and share talks to me than any other channel. Cheers from Québec
Thank you for the knot lesson.
The rabbit comes out of the hole, runs around the tree, then goes back in the hole... That was how I was taught to tie a bowline knot, way back in the 1900's (as my youngest loves to say).
Same! That twisty thing looked far too complicated. Up the hole, round the tree, back down the hole. Job done! Bowline :)
That's the same way I teach my Scouts
Great to see you as a sailboat again. Onward
love your videos - especially the snowboarding! Wishing you all the very best with your first saltwater sail
Thank you Steve!
It's fun watching you two. Thanks for the update.
Congratulations! You made it, finally :) She looks like a sailboat again.
So So happy for you two. Cant wait for the adventure to come.
You made it!
Every time I get impatient because it seems so long between videos, I remind myself you work also. Most of the sailing vlogs I watch are people using their vlogs for their income. Nice that you got to go home also. I promise to be more patient. Thanks for the ride.
😁 lol thanks Steve. We do carry a pretty full workload. Thanks for joining us for the journey.
Get out of town you two!. Please share with us in your future travels!
Montreal?!! Now you're in my neighborhood! Hope you had a great time!
Looking forward to the start of the sailing portion of your adventure. Fair winds!
It’s really nice you’re boat isn’t deck stepped. That’s much better for Sailing. Good deal
Great videos as always you two. What a great voyage from lake Michigan to the ocean.
Oh what fun coasting and skiing. I love to ski but never would have left the warmth of the south.
I hope you all are ok on the ocean wow you all are brave good luck.great show.
Hey I’m glad you guys are back, I’ve been missing you. Now the real fun begins, time to become offshore sailors, what fun.
An excellent video!
Congratulations!
Great video!
Do the 4 way first caps , for and aft , then lowers use an plumb line down the mast to see if it’s straight that’s what your doing , keep it straight , go for a sail with main up only and see how strait it is , may need to tweak the lowers good luck
Good to see you guys in Good Old Boat magazine today. Time to get some videos out while the attention is on you!
We were in good old boat magazine? We hadn’t heard about that!
@@SailingSoulianis Yep, page 3 there's a little article about your boat, and your Voyage down the Waterway and an encouragement for readers to check out your past episodes to catch up on what you're doing. Issue 126. May June 2019.
Oh that’s so cool. I wish they would of notified us to let us know!
@@SailingSoulianis ...and ruin the surprise.😉
I truly enjoy following your adventure😁
Good Luck!!! Calm seas and fair winds .
One of the best channels. From Seattle, keep it real and have fun doing it.
Great video, thank you.
Nice to see you guys back in the game. Your pilgrimage south convinced me to take the extra time and go down the St. Lawrence and the east coast. By the time I get to do this I'll be retired and an extra couple weeks won't be a problem. I've done the east coast ICW with frequent offshore legs before and I'd rather that than endlessly motoring a small diesel on brown, polluted rivers. It'll be great to see your upcoming destinations (west coast Florida ICW, Tortugas, Keys, Bimini, Bahamas etc.) through new eyes.
Tie a small lanyard with a carabiner at the end to your Loos gauge so that if it accidentally pops off while messing with the rigging it doesn't go overboard. Congratulations!
Your trip so far brings back memories of when I made a singlehanded trip from Louisville, KY to Abaco, Bahamas over twenty years ago on my 34' Irwin JollyMon. Back then we did not have the electronics for recording like today. This is like going back in time and seeing things from the past. Stay safe........
How cool to hear! So glad we could bring back the memories!
I remember motoring into Mobile Bay past freighters and realized how small my boat was...LOL I like the drone footage.
Awesome video
Glad you are a sail boat again!
Cant wait for your new videos love watching your adventures 😀
I live in Montreal and own an old Tartan 34, having known I would have stopped by to say hello. Cheers, Richard
Finally made it!! We were getting worried! Can't wait for up coming videos. Good Luck
Nice video! Can't wait for next one.
The way I was taught to make a bowline. Make a hole by a tree, the end of a rope is a rabbit coming out of the hole, walks around the tree looking for predators. Spotting one it leaps back into the hole
I haven't gone sledding like that for at least a dozen years (Grand Rapids MI). Looked like great fun!
Beautiful guys :) great episode as always. Thanks again from all of us who vicariously live through yall.
Fantastic; welcome back!
A bit late but I would recommend putting COAX-SEAL around the antenna/coax connector to protect it from the elements.
We will check it out.
Welcome back.
👍🙏❤️
Been binge watching your series and living vicariously through your adventures! Watching this one I thought, did they remember to change the anchor light bulb to LED?
We checked and it had already been swapped out with an LED :)
I don’t know if you had the pleasure of sailing on Mobile Bay, but their squalls can be incredibly dangerous I’ve witness some beautiful days that turned into nightmares in minutes from the Grand Hotel located on the point. It’s an awesome sight. 👍👍✌️
One day, anchor up in Paterson Inlet, Stewart Island, New Zealand, it's stunning! But a lot of sailing miles and learning away!
"They're both brown, huh?", had me chuckling. Looking forward to the new chapters as you heat your boat with latitude.
You should try a well seasoned stainless steel or cast iron pan. People managed to cook eggs for hundreds of years without Teflon. That stuff gets inside you.... no bueno.
Love the videos! Good luck and fair winds!
Thanks Vic!
Hellooooooo!! So good to see you guys!!
great video, as always. keep 'em coming!
Living life!!
Exellent work. Ya'll will hit it big soon. I just wish you had more vids/week.
Every time I watch one of your episodes I sit back and pour myself a cold Founders Centennial IPA and Dream about the possibilities ....Great to see the mast up.
3 cheers for Founders! And 4 cheers for the couple whose awesome vid episodes pair up perfectly with Cent IPA!
Trust but verify. (@ 8:15 - raising the mast)
You guys are having to much fun lol
You can tension your rig without a gauge by standing up and deflecting the various shrouds and stays at shoulder height by these amounts: Head stay and back stay 1 inch max. Upper shrouds 1 inch max. Intermediate shrouds 1 to 2 inches max. Forward lower 2 to 3 inches max and aft lowers 3 to 4 inches max. By the way, you have had your boat out of the water when the centerboard issue came about - you should know that every time you pull a boat out of the water you need to check the propeller shaft flange to transmission flange spacing. You will need a feeler gauge with a .003 feeler. The max space at any point between the two flanges should be no more than .003 inches. To change the distance and make the spacing at .003 or less, you have to adjust the engine mount bolts to raise or lower the engine so the spacing is correct. The reason for this is that the hull changes shape when you have the boat out of the water versus in the water. Running the engine with more than .003 spacing at the shaft flange can cause a strain on the shaft where the flange is on it - worst case scenario is that the shaft will break close to the flange - which I have seen happen. The best option is to buy a flexible coupling. Once it is in place you won't need to worry about the spacing and you will likely get less vibration.
I vote keep the beard......lol you two are now living life....... Good on you, keep the awesome videos coming...
Hunky Dory Whack-a-Doodle :)
I like to see snow from the deck of a ship or sailboat
skiing and yachting... really hard life eh... :)
I FRICKEN LOVE YOU GUYS !!!!! If you ever find yourself anywhere close to the (North) eastern seaboard or the Chesapeake Bay area... I would love to meet you guys...… I live in Delaware... Dinner is on me !?
Thanks for the offer!
Love your video's, especially the trip south bound from the lakes and rivers to Florida o_~
About time too..!!!!! :-) been tooooo long....:-)
Congratulations I found out about the eastern in land water Way's ..Cool
I think you must have misspoke when you said you were celebrating your son's 30th birthday. It seems to me that you would have had to have him before you were born yourself. Congratulations on becoming a sailboat again. Fair winds.
The reason why you are getting the squealing feedback is the constant cycle if audio from radio #1s speaker going back thru radio #2s microphone causing that squealing. The garbled audio is from radio#1 being to close to radio #2. Handheld probably puts out 5W and the boats radio puts out a lot more and will over deviate the other radios receiver. To much for it to handle. Other then that sounds like they are working good. You do need to make sure your SWR/ Standing Wave Ratio is within specs for the ships radio. What can cause it to be off is loose connections. Incorrect length antenna or a break or sharp bend in the coax. Your antenna looks to be the right length from your video. 1:1 ratio is what you want. Your instructions might say anything under 3:1 is good. Might also say the radio will cut the power down if the ratio is 3:1 or higher to prevent the finals from burning up.
Oh and I love watching your adventures so keep them coming. I'm a amateur radio operator. So that's why all the techy advise 😁.
That's my sank boat next to your mast. So funny to see it. Boy what a ride that day was December 6,2017
Yes, Sorry to hear about that! As to your previous comment we did meet your “steady” friends. Seemed like nice people. :)
