    I know of no finer sailing travel content on TH-cam. Your artistry invokes an earlier, quieter, and more lovely time.

    I jump all over the place trying to find the sailing stories I crave. But your channel is the one that sticks in my head. The scarcity of your films make them even better. If I ever get the chance to be in the south pacific on a boat, a big reason will be because of your films. And my god your boat is beautiful.

    After becoming paralyzed in 2010 my sailing experiences effectively ended as crutches & wheelchairs don’t mix well with sailing 30-40 foot vessel. However your videos, almost beyond any words of beauty, have allowed me to experience the Pacific almost as if I were with you on your journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    I completely endorse the last comment. This is probably the best TH-cam content I watch. It is like reading Hiscock.

    This is the most beautiful sailing TH-cam channel. I like the narrating too . No bs & no tacky, very exceptional.

    Simply majestic. Such a Beautiful video from one the most enchanting places. We love that you show us the best of wherever you. We all know there can be rainy days, boat repairs and such. Other sailing chamnels give us almost too much of that 😵‍💫Thank you so much for capturing and sharing the Beauty of your explorations 🐠 🌴💗

    Navigating those rollers had me on the edge of my seat! You and "Life is like Sailing" don't just create sailing videos you take my love of wooden sailboats and turn them into masterpiece video productions! Your editing is top notch and your narrations are hypnotic. Thanks for sharing such beauty and be safe in your future passage.⛵⛵⛵

    Your videos have the quality of film giving them the feel of the golden age of exploration, it’s relaxing, it’s a wonderful escape and oh, thank you for not using the phrase “super cool” in your narrative of the places and experiences that you share with us.

    Isn't it beautiful though, that you can chronicle & share your experiences on the TH-cam with Modern Cameras? It's marvelous. You can relive the experience for years to come!

    It's been a long time since we've come across a channel with such beautiful images of our world in all its richness, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings, watching your videos is always a pleasure.

  • @RocksOff72
    @RocksOff72 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Can it be! Another video from MB? And this time only 3 months since the last one! I was literally just in the San Juan's and I wondered what MB was up to? And now, here you are. Another beautifully filmed and edited video. We don't see your videos often, but when we do we're very impressed.

  • @Skier307
    @Skier307 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    That your videos don’t have millions of views (yet) makes me lose faith in humanity. Love the scenery, narration, the boat…simply wonderful. Greetings from a fellow native of the Pacific Northwest and safe travels.

  • @nancycunningham4225

    I actually visited your channel page earlier today to check if I might have missed out on an episode from you guys. It brought a smile on my face when this video popped up on my notifications jus hours later. As usual a fantastic video. Best regards from Jarle (Stem to stern sailing)

    Thank you for a truly magnificent video. A very fitting end to your travels in French Polynesia. As stated in other comments, this is the absolute best channel on TH-cam focusing on the heart and soul of the real sailor. Don’t change a thing, your videos are absolutely magical!

  • @davidohman9211
    @davidohman9211 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    As an old sailer myself, you have inarguably the best sailing/cruising channel on the planet!!! I'm nearly 80 years old and now, must sail vicariously through you two. Many thanks.

    I agree with the many post's that mention quieter times and showing the beauty of your travels, rather the self indulgence found on most sailing channels. Kudos to y'all 👍🇺🇸❤️

  • @tomhodges534

    I loved all your videos of French Polynesia, one of my favorite places in the world (with New Zealand). As you are heading west, I hope you will have the chance to visit the Cook Islands, in particular Aitutaki, a coral atoll in many ways similar to Bora Bora, without the towering volcanic peak. A walk around One Foot Island is something to remember.

    I'm always excited to see new content from you guys. Beautiful boat and cinematography. I recently bought my first sailboat and have been living on it for 6 months now. I call it my training wheels because one day I want to live the dream you've had and sail down to Baja and across the pacific but in something more sea worthy.

Never become another bikini show! Now that Florence is sailing into the cold, you're our lat hope for a tropical sailing show. Love you guys! Fair winds (and safe anchorages). : )

    What an incredible adventure, that you have set yourself out upon! If I could afford any usable boat at all, I would take the same route myself, no doubt about it. I noticed one thing, your wife's/ girlfriend's/ fiancées smile already were wide in Mexico, but now it is ear to ear. You know the saying, happy wife, happy life, it is true! God Bless!
