I’ve been listening to way too much Chet Baker recently. But just want to say a huge thanks to Mary and Steve, the best parents I’ve ever had 😂 getting organised and those engines purring means I can crack on with my rigging and getting my mast up.
Your socks and flipflops are fine.. Anyone who moans about them are obviously foot fetishists frustrated 😅. The music in the other hand is not my cup of tea.. Did you ask your AI music generator to compose tunes in the style of 1970s low budget detective TV shows? I'm not the only one who feels this way..Chet Bakers neighbours obviously felt strongly about his " music" which they had to 'endure'.👀 The boat is coming along nicely. Your parents are wonderful people. The plants really freshen up the place. Ger a code wallet and I'll send you some money Mark.
I admire how much your Mum & Dad support your endeavor. You are so lucky they do! And, don't sell yourself short - you've covered amazing ground on your own as well!
You are an absolut fantastic little family! I can just visualise that day where your parents visiting you in some beautiful anchorage in the Caribbean sipping your sundowners as the sun sets behind the palm trees. Well done all of you!
Congratulations, you've come a long way in the last year and you now have quite some skills to finish the boat already sailing. Your parents are real treasures
I am a 58 year old father of three boys 18, 20, and 22 and I can tell you nothing brings me more joy than to help them on what ever projects they are working on, there isn't anything I wouldn't do for them. I can see that your father is like me, he has unconditional love that brings so much joy. It is easy to see how proud your parents are of you. Speaking of proud my youngest son just graduated today, tears of joy!
We are just the same. Our daughter, 27, is expecting her first one and we travel a lot just to spend time with them and help with the work around the house. Our son, 25, bought a house near to us and no job is to much. We both had parents who helped were they could and thats how we like to do it as well. It doesn't have to cost money, helping hands are free.
Although your parents are so helpful the tremendous amount of work you put into the project is now more and more visible. Congrats on your motors working now kind of reliable.
The boat is looking great! I love the colors your mum chose for the floors. Your parents are legends and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Awesome job!!
Little tip for drilling clean holes with a hole saw. Drill through like normal until the center drill bit pokes through but the outer saw part of the bit hasn't gone through yet then flip over to the other side, use the hole for the center and it will line up perfectly to finish off drilling the full hole and give you nice clean edges on both sides of the hole.
Your mum and dad are a formidable team, I don’t think there is too much that could beat them , the project is looking great and I can’t wait for the stepping of the mast
Your dad is getting so used to working on engines over water, he'll move his next car project out over the pool. Boat is really coming along, looking great!
so nice to see your mum and dad down there helping you they do such great work your mum has made your home much more like a nice place to live for you.
Hi lovely progress. When you start sailing nothing will stay put on the selves; you will need to fix items in place . Cups would be hanging hooks .the plants will end up on the floor use Velcro to fix in place . Food items need to be boxes and fixed securely to the shelf .A ll clothing in waterproof bags otherwise you will end up with damp and mouldy clothing . Add humidifier is a practical weapon against the damp .Bread maker for fresh bread as bread can go mouldy very quickly . Good keep going Nicky and Gus
Your sailboat is really coming along nicely. I too wear socks with sandals, with no regard for anyone's opinion. Having that attitude is one of the benefits of getting "old". Good for you for adopting that outlook at a young age.
Very German as well... 😉 if you wear leather insoles sandals then you know they are going to suffer if you're a bloke and you don't wear socks.🫢 Plastics ok you can wash them but horrible to walk any distance in 😂. Anythings better than cold feet or sunburned feet.
Mark once again i say you're folks are just champions. Love the Mickey Mouse on your mum's jumper. Her little flower signature & your dad;'s spanner are just priceless & should remind you of their support and love whenever you look at it. Inspiration right there. Enjoyed the video as always. cheers
Your Mum and Dad are just great. You should install a check valve on the through hull; check valve above the waterline, shut off valve below the waterline.
Yup Skipper, She does look really nice. ALOT better than a year ago. I know you could pull her together again. Cant wait to see her breaking through the waves. Its going to be grand. Carry on Skipper.
I never miss an episode. Your parents are magnificent folk, and I'm amazed at how your Mum adapts to woodwork tasks. I wanna see those masts up and rigged!
After this complete rebuilding you are obviously ready to repair anything on your catamaran. Lucky fellow to have such mum and dad ! Standing ovation !
Mums have the ability to make wherever you are feel like home. The feeling getting into the cabin after she‘s done her magic must have been pure happiness.
Parents work ethic and accents are gold and worth bottling. I miss mine but we learn so much from them without realising, and they are gone too soon. I look forward to your 'family' sail before too long
You have come a long way Mark! I’m so impressed with all you’ve done and learned . It’s really shaping up to be the beauty you imagined. Blessings and Light. Kathy
Steve and Mary, you are the parents that every man/woman would truly love to have as their own. You are so loving, so helpful and so much fun. Mark I can see where you get your compassion, your manners and you willingness to “have a go” at anything that stands in your way. My congrats to all three of you and I truly enjoyed this video and watching the interactions between you all.
Mark Your Mom and Dad are the best, like your little tea break cups on deck, nice touch from your Mom on decorating and your Dad's mechanical skills, see where you get your talent's from. Great Parents great Son. Catermaran is looking good. Bill Niagara Falls, Canada
🌈⛵️🌈Ahhh, Sparks, I feel really emotional watching this!🤗...I have just done things that aren't necessarily needed for Mahi"s safety or to set sail & stuff you dont need to prioritise!!!🌈⛵️🌈....Your favourite parent however has been able to help with his mechanical genius 🔧🔨🔧& do you know, we've loved EVERY single minute!!!...I'm not sure whether Ive said this before, but we're SO proud of you!!!🌞....You are well & truly bringing Mahi back to life & I can see the Swan 🦆 is just around the corner🦢!...As always....Love, love, love ⛵️🌿🌈Mum🌈🌿⛵️
Awwww, Mary, your comment brought a tear. 🥲From one mother to another, I have so much respect for you and the things you do and the warmth and love you bring to this project❣
its only when you look at the before and after that you realise how much it changed, you done a great job Mark and you are lucky to have such great parents. i wish you all the best.
Amazing Mark, we are thrilled over the amount you have accomplished on this project in such a short period of time. You all deserve a round of applause for this epic refit and we all are praying for your success in the future.
Being tidy is so important for feeling the progress and to help in finding things. When I’m untidy I spend more time searching for tools and bolts etc than actually fitting them; also when I can’t find something I gave tended to re-buy it, thus doubling the cost and space taken.
So great that your parents come over and help you out. Its been bugging me for some weeks that the boat needs a bit of a clean-up so the combination of your fantastic mum and a bottle of CIF (the best boat cleaning product) has worked wonders.
The chain plates turned out great! The second fly catcher is called a "pitcher plant". Great work! Your parents are so wholesome to see together with you. Love all your videos, but the ones with your parents are the best!!!
Four helping hands make such a difference! Your mom and dad are such perfectionists and you certainly take after them. Well, the project is near completion, I am sure you’re very satisfied with what you’ve achieved so far! To the next episode with more end results 🤞
Love your mum and dad Marc. So great to see how you guys dive in together. I plan to be like your dad when my son (today 6yrs) or daughter (9) rebuild themselves a boat of some kind. Tell your parents thank you for being such inspiring parents 🙌 //Jon
Getting loads done with extra help from Steve and Mary. The engines, controls, chain plates are some biggies. Cleaning the bedroom. Painting and wood oiling. Brightening some of the exterior. Carpets and plants complement the interior, making it more homely.
Great job this week. You have to have the coolest parents on the planet. Your dads skill set is amazing and your mom tackles anything and everything. Cheers from Austin, TX
We really enjoyed this episode. Super intersting and the video was edited really nicely. You will need a seacock on the sink, even though it is above the waterline in static water. Your folks are always amazing and I’m loving Chet Baker.
I can only imagine all the work behind the camera, such big boat and restoration on top of it filming and editing, you are doing a great job, thanks for the inspiration 💫
Parents like yours are worthy of admiration of steadfast commitment for your envoys of safe passage sailing the seas. Legendary Rock stars! You could buy an Ecoffow battery make commercials to help afford things for your boat and for yourself, to help with all your battery needs. I love the colours she's picked for the matts, the plants, those little touches do help.
Mom and Dad are the Best .... what a blessing to have .... they want their kids to Succeed and be Happy .... we should Honor them in being the Best we can be .... ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊 ....
There should be a non-return valve in the hose, at least, even better, additionally, would be a through hull fitting with a ball valve so that you can close it at sea.
Mark, I just love this episode's music and movie star Mary❣ Yep, Mahi's a beauty and your parents are the best -- truly look forward to, as well as enjoy, their guest appearances on your show, and as always, your film work fabulous. That'll more than do Dad 🔧your wall art is perfect. 😎

I love it when Mum and Dad come!
Me too!
Me to love there acsents
Me too! Love your Mum 😊
Your Mum & Dad are absolute rockstars. Enjoy every chance you have to spend with them. Time is fleeting. Ive lost both of mine.
You are an absolut fantastic little family! I can just visualise that day where your parents visiting you in some beautiful anchorage in the Caribbean sipping your sundowners as the sun sets behind the palm trees. Well done all of you!
Dude, your parents are gold. Make sure you tell them how much you appreciate them. Someday (sooner than later) you won’t be able to.
You are very fortunate to have parents that care and are willing to lend a hand to your dream.
Great to see the progress being made.
Your Mum always brings a touch of Holywood to the show.
Congratulations, you've come a long way in the last year

Congratulations on your youngest. Job done?
Mum and dad rock when they come over. It is coming together mark. Keep it going
As a messy person I'm always amazed how a tidy up and clean lifts the spirits but somehow mess just follows me. 😊
You are not alone 🤣🍻
Your mom and dad are the best! Apple didn't fall far from the tree! Thanks for the videos!
Thanks for the Huge afford you made Mum and Dad... Nice to see you all doing your Thing your good at..love the Music..
Although your parents are so helpful the tremendous amount of work you put into the project is now more and more visible. Congrats on your motors working now kind of reliable.
So true John...the work Mark has done over the last 12 months has been relentless 👍🤗👍🤗👍
I love watching your parents go to town on your boat. There's nothing like your Mum and Dad.❤
The boat is looking great! I love the colors your mum chose for the floors. Your parents are legends and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Awesome job!!
It is amazing teamwork that is going on - but I always get a big grin on my face when your mum dons those Marigolds!
I can't get over how cute it is that your mom is decorating the boat for you. It brings so much warmth to the boat!
you are so lucky to have such supportive and loving parents.

What also helps a little is to stick tape on the breakthrough point.
You've got two brilliant parents, you are so lucky.
Your parents are rock stars, I love when they come and help you.

So true Nicky...As I was watering the plants, I thought "these will need to be anchored down along with the rest of Mark's stuff"😂
It is a blessing to see your parents so involved in your dream. You are truly loved. Continued prayers for your seccess.
Fab Mark all very exciting stuff. Also your parents should have their own channel- just delightful people🥰
Your sailboat is really coming along nicely. I too wear socks with sandals, with no regard for anyone's opinion. Having that attitude is one of the benefits of getting "old". Good for you for adopting that outlook at a young age.
Hahaa, functionality over fashion
Very German as well... 😉
if you wear leather insoles sandals then you know they are going to suffer if you're a bloke and you don't wear socks.🫢
Plastics ok you can wash them but horrible to walk any distance in 😂.
Anythings better than cold feet or sunburned feet.
Mark once again i say you're folks are just champions. Love the Mickey Mouse on your mum's jumper. Her little flower signature & your dad;'s spanner are just priceless & should remind you of their support and love whenever you look at it. Inspiration right there. Enjoyed the video as always. cheers
We just live your channel, and you, Mum and Dad, are just lovely!
Your Mum and Dad are just great. You should install a check valve on the through hull; check valve above the waterline, shut off valve below the waterline.
Yup Skipper, She does look really nice. ALOT better than a year ago. I know you could pull her together again. Cant wait to see her breaking through the waves. Its going to be grand. Carry on Skipper.

Love and cherish ya mum and dad we don't have them for ever mark another great video ❤
I’m sure I’m not the only one that is so proud of you Mark. Great seeing you with your mum & dad 😉
Thanks Mark, Mum and Dad, you are a treat to watch. ❤🙏
Mums have the ability to make wherever you are feel like home. The feeling getting into the cabin after she‘s done her magic must have been pure happiness.
The biggest blessing, is to have 2 wonderful parents !!!
Wish your parents had their own channel, it would be a winner.
Well done Mark, your getting so close. Your mum and dad are amazing. Your be out there before you know it. Keep going 👍😎
Parents work ethic and accents are gold and worth bottling. I miss mine but we learn so much from them without realising, and they are gone too soon. I look forward to your 'family' sail before too long
You have great role models, work ethic and a positive attitude can't be under appreciated, good on you.
Great music always a magical time when your folks are on board.
You have come a long way Mark! I’m so impressed with all you’ve done and learned . It’s really shaping up to be the beauty you imagined. Blessings and Light. Kathy

Socks and sandals are a British tradition!

Absolutely nothing wrong with being ambitious! More importantly though,. you've got dedication and perseverance.
Watching your Dad’s skill with hand tools is an absolute delight. You seem to be picking it up as well. Great video
1 word comes to mind when ever i see your mum and dad "Legends" good to see the progress mate won't be long now.
Your parents are treasures. Watching you work together is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.
what an amazing Mum and Dad
You are so blessed to have enthusiastic parents that are knowledgeable too. Great work so far!
When that clip of 12 months ago popped up, it really reminded us of how much hard work you have put in. And mum killed it with the carpets
