    Good on the owner he saw a young couple passionate about sailing that could use a break. He also wanted to see her get the love she needed and sail once again proudly on the seas. You truly earned that break with such great passion and commitment to Mother Earth.

      Could use a break!? These kids look like they've not worked a real day in their life.

    I can feel the love you two have for each other, for sailing and for our planet.
    I can't wait to go on this journey with you both.

    Some people work all year to be able to have two weeks off. It's better to work hard for two weeks and live a life time that most people only dream about. What great memories you will have. Thanks for sharing.

    Great work time effort and dedication you have put into this new adventure. love watching everything and so absorbing... if any slight annoyance is the music is a little too loud in the background and is difficult to hear every word your both saying at times....!! But fascinating stuff to watch.. !!

      thats what i always wonder about these videos. usually they have a trust fund or a massive stock portfolio from the 6 figure job they used to have and get a 7k dividend check every month. AKA, not something a regular person could manage unless sponsored.

    Please spare a thought for the hard of hearing when your playing your guitar music when you speak. I couldn't make out a single word. It got a bit too much for me with my hearing aids amplifying everything...at the same level. Apart from this I love your journey.

    So glad to see you finally got your 1st sail! You have spent a lot of money for recreation and say that your environmentalist. What about all 3 billion people around the world living on less than $1 A-day and you're wasting money on a boat. After a year of sailing hope you both get jobs at Rio tinto and mine coal so that you can salvage your economic future.

    • @garebear3290
      @garebear3290 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think Sage and Emily are setting out to raise awareness of problems. I can't much go along with environmentalist activism, but starting somewhere to address some very real issues is a good thing. 38K + views of this video in 8 months goes a lot farther than sitting back of a computer and making everything in the world no fun because of some hidden guilt. In response to Craig, I'm 66 and know there's no "thing" that will make me happy, but I like sailing, and I've met a lot of other sailors. Knowing people helps with satisfaction. In response to William, get a life, and smile a bit. You are wasting time bitching when you could go do some feel-good environmental activism. Me? I'm an agronomist, trying to teach my customers better ways to care for the soil. Yes, I'm aware of the other 3-billion souls. I'm making a start, as are Sage and Emily

      @@garebear3290 38k views of people wanting to see other people fixing up a boat. This is the third part of the series, and I give up. Just too much babble about the environment without presenting any tangible plan. Those views have nothing to do with awareness, unless you want them to.
      Now back to restoring my own. "There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats." said someone
