    Between the off-camera goosing, the teasing between you two, the local highlights (restaurant and streets of Carcasonne), and the masterful demonstration of the Terysa Vanderloo French Canal Workout, this is one of my favorite episodes so far. Thanks for wearing that camera, T!

      That off-camera goosing you mention...that must be a patron only thing. :P

    I would just like to say that you two are fantastic. I don't sail, have a boat or even live near water. Having said that I feel a part of your amazing journey across seas, oceans, rivers and canals. Also following your life on a sail boat is so much fun, your channel is one of the best.
    Thank you for doing what you do.

    Nick, mate.....when you find a woman that laughs at your jokes, that tolerates a dull banging, takes over when you droop, trots alongside like a hepped up towpony, heaves a line, handles a boathook, keeps your nose off the wall, and keeps a camera running all the while, you have to sit back and congratulate yourself with a glass of something sort of vinerological and contemplate your extreme good fortune at having found a keeper. I really love your channel, and raise a glass here near Cape Town in congratulation of you both. Ain't life grand?!

    This was magical. I can not pinpoint why, but I think I just love that you two get along so well with each other and always seem happy (although I really miss a good Nick rant with all the cuss words) I liked the history lesson very much and also so glad the people spoke and saved that beautiful city. I am surprised there are not people helping on the sides of the canals for an exchange of money. Must not be allowed? Anyway, this was so sweet and my day so stressful I am pouring a toddy and watching it again :)

    Wow! Wonderful camera footage and beautiful scenery! I’m envious. The both of you are living the dream, from my point of view. I know that it’s also a lot of sweat and toil, as you two have shown, but much preferred over punching a time-clock as I must do. After Nick rammed the boat into the canal bank (joking!), I was a bit amazed that Terysa was able to seemingly (with ease) push away Ruby Rose from the bank. Terysa, you must have Amazon strength or that boat is lighter than it looks. Another awesome video, guys! Thanks!!

    Are you going to get a cat to take with you the next time you're back on Ruby Rose? I saw the one at Nick's parents house, and he's a real love muffin, obviously. Yeah, the cat seemed to enjoy it, too. :D :p Seriously, you guys need to have a cat on the boat, and two when you get a Catamaran.
    Would love to see you at a boat show, but none here in Seattle that you would be interested in. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to be content with watching the two of you here on TH-cam.
