After some very hard days with everything that happened in my country due to the floods in Valencia, and what has happened in the world with Donald Trump's victory, your video and your adventure have put a happy counterpoint and a smile on my face. As Sharon said, two wonderful kids. Thank you
Thank you Maya and Aladino, for letting us all live vicariously through your journey of rebuilding Magic Carpet. I’m too old now to take on another boat, but seeing you two embracing the challenge together and bringing it to this new beginning has helped fill the void that being shorebound had left. From the mind’s eye vision that you both held and her long slumbering form, you have created something beautiful and special in the care that you have both taken to do her justice. She is exceptional, you should both be rightly proud of her and yourselves. The journey has presented its challenges to each of you and you have been honest, not painting a false image of the trials that such a huge project presents in real life. At times the weight of it has borne down on you but you have stood back up and carried on with grace. You have shown far greater resilience than you gave yourselves credit for at times, and that more than anything is a credit to both your characters’. From far away across the Atlantic the sight of Aladino lighting her evening lamp filled my heart. I hope that, in some small way, I can add my own tiny piece of gratitude to many, that your hearts may be filled too in return. Good health to you both, may you always find safe harbour on your journey, R.
I’ve watched every episode, I sat here mesmerized ! I was actually in tears of joy as the keel touched the water! I couldn’t be happier for you and wish I could have been there to see this momentous event unfold. Congratulations to you both. Rob
Congratulations on your semi completion , you have had a long, exhausting journey and Magic Carpet II looks like a new yacht, due to the labour and exacting refurbishment that you have lovingly put in to the project. Looking forward to virtually accompany you both on your travels afloat again, through your excellent videos and thank you for allowing us viewers to follow your adventures . Stay Safe afloat!! David Buchan.
After building four aircraft and a 17 foot motorboat in the past I can appreciate the effort you two went to in order to produce that absolute work of art. Congrats and many MANY thousands of safe miles ahead!
Maya has nervous laughter while Aladino says "let's go!" They do have a wonderful mix of personalities to make watching "Sailing Magic Carpet". Maya does have a delightfully relaxed narration style. Looking forward to the next episode.
This is the first time I have ever had tears in my eyes while watching TH-cam. What an amazing accomplishment, two of the best human beings ever. Thank you for taking us along for this long and rewarding journey-Steve in CA.
I don't know much about boats. But I do know Aladino's story about how he started on a bike ride, met a sailor and then became a boat builder at a relatively young age. I do also know about how Maya started with Curlew, a little boat she got for $1 and fixed up herself, with her dad's help. A chance encounter brought them together. I've followed the channel to see so many parts to the world from a small sailing vessel, to hear Aladino speak several languages and listen to Mayas beautiful music. I look forward to more and see this as a new Grand Départ. Congratulations to you both!
What a beautiful home! Yes! I can hear joy in Maya's voice again! I feel glad for Dini, the fearsome weight of this project is lifted somewhat and breathing can become regular again! What a man. Make no mistake, you both made it here on your own merits, by your own blood and guts!
What a magical moment. Waiting 4 years to see Magic Carpet II taking to the water. I am so happy for you both and cannot wait for the experiences ahead.
Thank you for this wonderful post! Congratulations on your launch of your new home. As you say in your video, still many things to finish, but, this pause will refresh you and focus your determination to what you really need and really want your home to be for you. Enjoy your journey. We're enjoying being invited to follow along! We're all cheering for you.
It must be simply the common thread that connects people from any nation or culture.....: The excitement and contentment of seeing the success of people who have worked hard to accomplish their dream. Well done, my fellow humans! She is gorgeous, and it's because of your time, vision, energy, and follow through! B R A V O on (another) job well done! Thank your sharing your journey with us!
Wonderful to see Magic Carpet on the water where a boat belongs. Good to hear all the comforting sounds of floating on water. Well done and congratulations
Congratulations, she looks amazing , even more beautiful in the water. You have reason to be proud and happy. We have followed you all along. Tears in my eyes..my husband moved by all the hard work, persévérance , craftmenship and love put into this ship. Gefeliciteerd en groetjes. . Happy sailing. The best is yet to come. Love from Québec ❤️
I like to give you both a virtual hug… after all this time… and she looks perfect… acknowledging the time and effort you put in. The result in in the final part. Cooking in the new home and sitting in the cockpit..l taking it all in….
Magic Carpet 2 is an absolute credit to you both and I felt as if I was standing next to you all during the launch. Go and enjoy your fruits of your labour. Have fun and keep safe. Cheers Ian
Splashing the boat is so exciting!!! This boat never dreamed of sailing again let alone that Aladino would make it an example of unrivaled craftsmanship!!!
Thank you Maya and Aladino, for letting us all live vicariously through out this sometime stressful, most knowledge seeking, always inspirational rebuild of Magic Carpet II. I am as grateful for your kindness and generosity with production as I am overwhelmed by the beauty you both have presented us on this adventure. May your first sail aboard be as perfect as you both have allowed the presentation to be, each and every week. Thank you again and enjoy!
Wow, what a milestone moment. She floats!! Also, the first meal on the water. The presentation was wonderful and it looked delicious. Next up, down the river we go. Thank you.
As Mr. Buehler would have said: "she floats right side up." 15 years out of water.... kind of like a new boat really. Congrats all around. We weren't out on the water near enough this year.hope you did better.
Seeing Aladino look out over the water, accompanied by bird sounds and gurgling water made the stress I was feeling for your project float away. I can only begin to imagine what it did for your souls. I’m so happy for you!
This old, broken down, landlocked, ex-Navy, ex-private boater, ex-deep water fisherman, ex-scuba diver, had tears of absolute and unbridled joy for you two as Magic Carpet floated free of the slings. What a long strange trip it’s been! Congratulations from the bottom of my heart, 🍾Cheers from Dallas🍸
Following you all this years changed me: I can't do any work without vacuuming simultaneously as I learned from Aladino. I think the vacuum cleaner deserves a chapter as long, detailed and emotional as the boat.
You have every reason to be proud of yourselves on finishing what appeared to be a unsurmountable challenge from the get go. Cudos - and keep the footage coming 😀
Congratulations again! A boat being launched is always a lovely moment. After the years of hard work, tough challenges, visa deadlines, relentless tasks and lots more the reality of being afloat must a huge relief. The achievement is yours, a reality. Great to see the kind support from family and friends.
finally. Also some really nice news this week. That brightened up these days for me. It gives me hope because it shows me that there are nice people who put their time and energy into such great projects with passion and beauty. I'm very happy for you, you did a great job with the boat. Thanks for the work of documenting. I was able to learn a lot for my own boat and projects. Grüässli us SG.
The culmination of so much hard work! Phantastic job, folks, nobody could have done it better. And kudos to you for persisting in spite of the occasional burnout!!! Happy sailing!
Kids, just for the record, I have not been able to help you as I would desire to do, but I must admit, as an eighty-five-year-old grandfather, when Magic Carpet went into the water, it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you both for such an amazing trip through your beautiful story.
I remember years ago you buying this thing, and there were SO many comments of how expensive and time-consuming and just bad the purchase was. But supporters knew of all people you two would get it done and have the ship builder knowledge to accomplish it. Congratulations.
Love you two! ❤️ I've watched since the beginning, like many amazing sailing channels. Unfortunately I've never had the money to become a patron, but I work in the marine industry in Gibraltar, worked up and down the west coast of America from Seattle to San Francisco. If you or a friend ever find yourselfs in Gibraltar I work at Sheppards. I will be more than happy to help any way I can. I hope to see you out there one day. Your boat is beautiful, your craft is inspirational. Your music is unreal! I'm a classical guitarist and former Luthier for Taylor guitars, built president Bill Clintons guitar, love the Symphony and it brings great joy to see the commitment to both woodworking and music. Plus I love sailing. Congrats to you both and to all that helped you. ❤️😎👍
I feel the joy too,its been a long hard journey to get you here and its only a few more steps.Well done to you both and all who helpt you on your way.Soon you can go out and see the world,much love to you both.
The sounds of water lapping the boat, the waterfowl darting around chasing insects in the last of the light, Aldino lighting the night watch, lost in thought, and the only thing missing was a quiet violin. Tomorrow
She is in the Water!! I’m so happy for you and Aladino. I want to jump up and run out the door yelling “She’s in the water!! Magic Carpet II is in the water”!!! She is so Beautiful.
Felicidades! I’ve launched several boats and the feeling is always wonderful! Hopefully your parents will join you on the sea trials!⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
You two have done quite a thing. Its no small feat to do a refit of that scale and keep your sanity along with it. Maya, it is obvious that you have grown as a filmmaker and Aladino has clearly spent his 4 years well refining his skills as a shipwright. You have taken care of each other. You have both done such good work, thank you for bringing me and your other 162,000 subscribers along for your journey. I wish you fair winds and hope to cross paths somewhere, sometime...
"A ship is safe in a harbour. But that's not what it is built for!" Maya and Aladinn, my Bigest Congratulations deep from my heart for the beginning of a new beginning (as one said here). I was following you from the very beginning experiencing all your heartaches when things turned out not the way you wanted them to be, as well as tears in my eyes, when you could close "one hole after the other"!!! I can feel all this because (for only one year) I also refurbished a 9,00m boat. Including all ups and downs like you had. I wish you will have a relaxing end of season where you can test your boat hoping you only find minor things to convert or repair. I wish you fair winds for sailing and for your long common life. Best wishes and kind regards from German Northsea. Peter
Maya, Aladino : Hi from Calgary warmest regards on this so very special day. MC2 is now where she was meant to be on the water thanks to both of you and those who assisted along the way. I was so happy to hear you are going to relax, raise the sails and enjoy your home. Thank you for allowing us to accompany you on your journey.
How exciting to see you on the water again, with this new boat. Maya was a little bit nervous but it’s comprehensible. But boats were made to float, and Magic Carpet isn’t different. There she is, ready to great adventures. Congratulations Aladino, the great boat builder I ever knew! Hehehe Good luck to you both!
♥ Massive congratulations. The only thing I can add to the other comments is.... you are so sensible and well adjusted. My favourite moment is when Maya says "...is the anchor ready.........oh! I know we are going to be good, let's go." xxx
A big congratulations to you and many happy sailing adventures ahead. I've been here the whole time and it's an amazing sight in the water. The let down, if you call it that after so much hard work, is yet to come I suppose. Enjoy yourselves and rest, relax, and be safe. From the Philippines, bye for now.
Congratulations on a beautiful splash! Magic Carpet II is looking magnificent! And yes, you both deserve a well earned break to just spend time together. Enjoy the islands! Fair winds and following seas.
Congratulations. I’ve followed you for a long time. This year I am 77 and I was hoping to see you launch. It’s a beautiful boat, I had a BCC for about 10 yrs a long time ago. I am just so pleased to have watched what you have accomplished.

“So it does what it’s suppose to do!” What a line! Congrats guys she looks amazing and you’ve both done such a good job! Enjoy freedom and sailing
This channel is the total essence of TH-cam. Adventure, Desire, Incredible workmanship, and Community.
Having experienced severe burnout myself, I'm so proud of both of you for finding your way to this beautiful moment.
After some very hard days with everything that happened in my country due to the floods in Valencia, and what has happened in the world with Donald Trump's victory, your video and your adventure have put a happy counterpoint and a smile on my face.

What a beautiful episode. Such a delightful and mellow change of pace.
There is something magical about floating an old soul boat. Congratulations Magic Carpet and protect all that you carry, God Bless
I’ve watched every episode, I sat here mesmerized ! I was actually in tears of joy as the keel touched the water! I couldn’t be happier for you and wish I could have been there to see this momentous event unfold. Congratulations to you both. Rob
Heartwarming to finally see her float. It has been a long time coming so please enjoy to the max. And be proud over what you have achieved.
Congratulations! She is beautiful!

Thanks for sharing your precious launch. I loved when he lit the light taking it all in!
Glückwunsch! Und immer eine handbreit Wasser unterm Kiel! Ein wunderschönes Boot.

.... what a beautiful respite in the face of such turbulent times... following since MC I .... such joy! she is soo peaceful,...
This episode made me tear up. It is good to see you cooking in the galley again Maya.
Not a doubt in my mind!
This whole build series has been just awesome.
Fair winds people, fair winds 😊
Maya has nervous laughter while Aladino says "let's go!"
They do have a wonderful mix of personalities to make watching "Sailing Magic Carpet".
Maya does have a delightfully relaxed narration style.
Looking forward to the next episode.

Sweet! Your day is coming, too, Jon :D

@@SailingMagicCarpet Loved it. Wouldn't have missed it.
Wonderful to see Magic Carpet on the water where a boat belongs. Good to hear all the comforting sounds of floating on water. Well done and congratulations
YOU DID IT! A huge accomplishment. I have to say, it looks bigger in the water than it did on the hard.
Congratulations, she looks amazing , even more beautiful in the water. You have reason to be proud and happy. We have followed you all along.

Can I say you have turned it into a wonderful home, not just a boat
Magic Carpet 2 is an absolute credit to you both and I felt as if I was standing next to you all during the launch. Go and enjoy your fruits of your labour. Have fun and keep safe. Cheers Ian
I'm so glad you guys are finally getting to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Congratulations! The boat is absolutely beautiful.
You guys make me happy.

What a GREAT GREAT moment see MC in the water. Congrats!
Teamwork makes the dream work. What a journey it has been. Congrats!
She was a work of art 4 years ago, now she is a masterpiece. BRAVO

Congratulations! She looks beautiful in her natural environment.
Tears of joy and applause. What an accomplishment! Congratulations!
I raise my tea cup to you both and may SAILING MAGIC CARPET bring "A Whole New World" ! 💙

What a great feeling to be aboard again. Settling into your home after being in many temporary spaces for years. Happy for you! 🥰🥳
I cant tell you how excited I am to watch this episode. Congratulations to you both. Much love x
Wonderful Congratulations ❤
What an amazing feeling this must be to finally be back in the water. Looking forward to seeing you sailing the Salish seas in person.
Its alway so amazing to see the hull finally touch the hull and begin to float after a long refit.
Magic Carpet shows the love she contains
Congratulations! The grand reward of all those years of hard work (and some tears). More great adventures to come!
I have an old house that creaks just like your lovely new Magic Carpet ! Wonderful!!!
I feel the joy too,its been a long hard journey to get you here and its only a few more steps.Well done to you both and all who helpt you on your way.Soon you can go out and see the world,much love to you both.
The sounds of water lapping the boat, the waterfowl darting around chasing insects in the last of the light, Aldino lighting the night watch, lost in thought, and the only thing missing was a quiet violin. Tomorrow
She is in the Water!! I’m so happy for you and Aladino. I want to jump up and run out the door yelling “She’s in the water!! Magic Carpet II is in the water”!!!
She is so Beautiful.
that is one beautiful boat. i can literally see the relief on your faces after you docked her
Now back to being a sailing channel. Lots of hard work paid off.
I can’t imagine just how good that felt. My “someday” was your yesterday, thank you for showing me what’s possible 🙏
Felicidades! I’ve launched several boats and the feeling is always wonderful! Hopefully your parents will join you on the sea trials!⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Words to live by, indeed.
Congratulations. I sure would like a bottle of that pride your parents are feeling right now. Thats the good stuff.
And breathe. I hope you guys are aware of the achievement and I look forward to seeing all the exploration you do in the future 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Maya, Aladino : Hi from Calgary warmest regards on this so very special day. MC2 is now where she was meant to be on the water thanks to both of you and those who assisted along the way. I was so happy to hear you are going to relax, raise the sails and enjoy your home.
Thank you for allowing us to accompany you on your journey.
Such a success! I feel like I am one tiny bit a part of it. I've been joyed to watch.
I had tears in my eyes, seeing SMC floating! Thank you for this incredible journey.
Rewards are earned. Living well is the best retort. Enjoy!
How exciting to see you on the water again, with this new boat. Maya was a little bit nervous but it’s comprehensible. But boats were made to float, and Magic Carpet isn’t different.

The let down, if you call it that after so much hard work, is yet to come I suppose. Enjoy yourselves and rest, relax, and be safe. From the Philippines, bye for now.
Felicitaciones Maya y Aladino un gran saludo desde Argentina y buena proa !!!!
You said it has been a long road. Thank you so much for letting me travel it with you.
Congratulations on a beautiful splash! Magic Carpet II is looking magnificent! And yes, you both deserve a well earned break to just spend time together. Enjoy the islands! Fair winds and following seas.
Congratulations on getting her bottom wet outside and dry inside. Another big step done and go enjoy her for a few weeks. Well done guys.
Congratulations. I’ve followed you for a long time. This year I am 77 and I was hoping to see you launch. It’s a beautiful boat, I had a BCC for about 10 yrs a long time ago. I am just so pleased to have watched what you have accomplished.
