In my opinion, you two speak from the heart. You're not one of those youtubers that put on a show. You are not fake! I always enjoy watching your channel. Best wishes and much success.
Exactly...I don't understand why people always want to know how much something cost....personally I find it annoying....but I understand them wanting to share ...just don't share so much personal information ....
If you are doing a u tube channel people want to know all about the boat. How much you paid for it, what you are going to do to her etc etc. I find it interesting and informative and helpful to myself as to what too look for in buying a sail boat. Thanks for sharing you guy's. 😊👍😎
Clarke that's ignorant. What if someone wanted to understand the cost of doing this in case they were considering doing it. Also 50k for a boat that can't sail is a bad investment. You can actually get a functioning boat for that cost. If you publicize your action on a platform such as UA-cam you accept the fact that you will be criticized. Lol seriously go to yacht world you can buy a functioning 45 ft yacht for 60k with much less repair cost.
@@abshir9677 It might not be a steel boat that could have gone to Antarctica. Plus, that interior is amazing and beautiful! You need a lot of information in order to make that judgement. The people that are buying the boat and fixing that boat need to find the deal acceptable. Just tackling the repairs that you see in their videos takes fortitude and willingness that is more than money. I hope you enjoy as this wonderful couple do as well, I am sure!
20 years ago we (my brasilian wife and me) had a very similar experience: we bought a 57' ketch abandoned in a French yard. After almost two years of hard work we set sails with our 3 kids ,crossed the Atlantic and spent 3 years sailing on the brasilian coast, ending in Florida. So guys,the only advice: ENJOY you are on the right path
Well said! They warm the cockles of one's heart just listening to their dreams, expectations, honest appreciation of what they have, and their open and honest hearts.
As I watched this episode, all I could see is how much love and respect that the woman had for her man. Together they shared a passion and dream, and as they went forth, the woman help guide her man with reasoning and understanding. Together, it is evedant that there is strong love for one another. May your endurance never fade. Let the peace of our Lord rest upon you. All the best for your future endeavours Ivan B
There's a big difference between being lucky and being fortunate, you guys are fortunate and we are too because you share your fortunes with us. Thanks
Ignore the naysayers. Love your lives and chase your dreams. Millions of people wish they could do what you are doing, but due to fear or life circumstances, they cannot. Looking forward to seeing this story unfold. God bless.
Yes, they can sit without knowledge or experience criticising this whole idea. But it is clear from the comments of the people that have owned a few boats that this is a good idea. This is a world cruiser, that can take ice and coral in its stride and will in all likelihood keep the water on the correct side of the hull.
I really like the hull design also. I think it will handle blue water very well. As old as she is, the hull is in remarkably great shape and once she gets new paint, you won't ever believe she sat on the hard for 20 years. I think you bought a boat that is made for your plans.
Honoring your friend with your channel name left me somewhat misty eyed, what a lovely thing to do. I have always said that when I die the most flattering thing anyone could say about me is "he had good kids." You two are "good kids."
What a beautiful story and how wonderful that you honored the man who helped your dream come true by his gift when he sadly passed away. I think he's looking down at you and he's very proud of the man you've become. Thankyou for sharing this wonderful story.
I just wanted to say, as a 79 year old, I have participated in many of your dreams and projects myself and thus can now relive much of my own past vicariously through you … I have been watching only a few days now and intend to spend a lot of future time catching up. A year or so ago I ran across "Sailing SV Delos" when they had already produced near 200 videos, needless to say I spent many hours catching up there also. Folks like you make my retirement years so much more enjoyable, THANKS!
Odd sounds like the kind of guy that really planned ahead. He knew where he was going and bought the best possible boat. Clearly, it's held up very well. I think he was lucky to find you two to restore, repair and refurbish and take care of this boat. Best of luck to you both.
Dont worry about the negative things other people say, it's the internet most people think their opinions matter. Keep up the good work, your videos are very interesting
Hi, a newbie here. I watch Sailing Uma and Salt & Tar. You are my new, regular channel to watch. I'm an old hombre, now 67, but 30 at hearth. You guys are fulfilling a dream I had all my life... sailing ! I'm a retire from a carreer in advertising design and project coordinator. I loved my job until it destroyed me from overwork. Deep burn-out, actually a depression for 4 years. My friend doctor told me find myself a new passion. Bingo ! I'll find myself a decent boat to refit andfinally go sailing !! Problem is, I did'nt have the money to start... Bummer. Ok, I'll wait till I may get my retirement benefits. Like 2 years ago at 65. Now I have back problems, sore anckles and a huge loss of energy. So, no more plans of refit and sailing MY boat. That's why I follow you young turks, full of dreams and ready for hard work to make those dreams alive and kicking ! I salute you both and will be waiting for a new episode of your life. Kisses from an ol' computer sailor ! Marc René 👍😘
You are 2 honest people and are so transparent in your honesty, it is so refreshing to see this ,you don't have to account for yourselves your a pleasure to watch. You love your boat and are proud of your boat and so you should be , may you have many years sailing and may all your dreams come true.
Great to see that you are honest about your financial situation. Yes, you have been lucky, but you invested in a friendship, and lost a dear friend. It sounds like you have your monies in place and you know what you want to achieve and a plan is in place. Roberta, can I suggest that you have more confidence in your language abilities! Your English is very good well done to you both.
It’s sad to lose a dear friend, indeed. He will be in our memories forever Thanks for the tips. I know I can be more confident, but I get nervous sometimes. I’m a shy person 😔
Agreed, there are no reasons for hesitation with her English ability. She speaks beautiful English and they both communicate very sincerely. Please keep it up.
@@OddLifeCrafting , It's so brave and generous to make the videos in English! You guys are amazing! Also, what a great deal on a fantastic, well built boat. Just discovered your project and I LOVE it!!!
This is one of the most compelling stories I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing, in detail. It truly makes a huge difference. I appreciate the details, they are often overlooked. People may watch due to a cute woman or a nice guy but in my opinion honesty will trump all of that. I realize that I have a specific preference for the truth but in the end, without it you can't move the hearts of the masses. I wish you both continued fortune, in all aspects of life.
We love watching both of you guys. We got our new/old boat last year. We love her. We have a 83 Irwin 38 ft . We had another sailboat, a 34 ft. Bruce Roberts. We lost her in Hurricane Irma, in Key West. I lived on that boat for 17 years. We lost everything, but we are still alive.
i envy your youth and the fact that you're living your dreams. most aren't that fortunate, or maybe they just don't want it badly enough. it's good you're brave and confident enough to just go out and chase what you want and not wait for it to come to you. very much looking forward to seeing this project develop. best of luck from a canadian in thailand. i've never sailed a single meter in my real life but i'm a master YT sailor. :)
Wow I have not subscribed for long, but it's obvious from the emotion in your eyes that this project and way of life means everything to you! Don't fret too much or feel the need to rationalize every penny to your audience. Go and get what you want outta life....Cheers
Nice boat. I've got an 84 macgregor. 25 foot cabin sailer. A lot of the work I had to do myself. I didn't know anything about sailing at the time and I took a class that was two parts. Learning about the sailboat and knots then part two was 2 hours on the water. I've had fun sailing ever since
Just watched this what a lovely story. Now I know why you were so emotional when you splashed. Keep up the great work and all your dreams will come true. Odd is looking down at you both and he must be so proud of what you’ve done. Steve
Honest and authentic channel! Really like the approach you take for your projects, i'm sure that we will have hours of interesting content in the coming years from you guys. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Belgium!
Such a charismatic couple. Very generous of you to narrate your videos in English (to reach a wider audience?), the accent and minor grammatical errors (expensiver!) only add to Duca's charm. Roberta corrects you with such sweet tolerance. I envy you both.
Wow! You guys are real and genuine! I am an American who loves Brazil and has visited many times. So, I will be watching your challenges with a smile. Love your channel!
I'm seeing this a year later. Thank you for sharing what some people would consider private information. Most of us who ask are not being "nosey," but are genuinely curious what it would cost to do something like this. You two are on an amazing adventure, and it's so cool that you can get into something like that, fully restored, for a price less than what an old entry-level used house costs here in many parts of the United States. May you get many amazing years out of that boat!
You live your dreams and give us the privilege of sharing them. It is always a pleasure to see your smiles. And besides, we learn a lot of things ! Thanks to both of you :)
I think you did very well on the purchase. The boat is so nice inside and looks to have stood the test of time very well. Congratulations and good luck with the refit!
Your channel is awesome. I wouldn’t spend too much time worrying about how other people think towards how you repair , wash or spend on the boat because it’s your baby , you two will be the ones spending time on the ship, keep following your hearts and enjoy it 👍 Keep up the good work
That’s what we can call living your dreams. I also used to sail on a french designer’s boat (Jeaneau 41) and I know how things can get old, broken, rusty and tired with age... Hope you’ll get the boat finished like you want it to be like. Focus on a good reliable engine, strong mast and quality rigging. So excited to see it floating on water and sailing in the breeze. Enjoy and take care
Duca & Roberta it is refreshing to see real emotion on UA-cam and honesty , this will be one hell of a ride we are going to take with you I for one cannot wait 😎👍
Guys dont worry about the content; house, or boat, which one is better, will the channel grow. I think the whole channel and the world you have created becomes richer...it's like unlocking a new level in a big game world...we are interested to see how the two worlds work alone and how they work together... keep it up!
Is there another more inspiring, gorgeous, hard working, totally fabulous couple on the planet....I don't think so. I've watched a few of their vids now and there must be thousands, if not tens of thousands, of others who would love to do the same as these guys but don't have the energy, time, work ethic, money, patience, skill, enthusiasm and passion. I am in awe.
I agreee with NewBeRVer.... .. I am not much for sailing, BUT I have really enjoyed watching your videos. Keep it up. I can't wait to see your sail boat finished. You guys are great !!!!
Guys, we enjoy seiing such a complicity in your couple, such a commune commitment to your dreams! Only thing we really miss from your videos: You, looking into eachother eyes (and eachother hearts) and saying out loud (though in a romantic way): "I LOVE YOU" !!! Keep on living your dreams, and remember to have dreams in spare in case one of them gets realized. We wish you all the best, and we are confident. Love, Patrick & Gina
you guys got a GREAT DEAL on buying the boat ... do not let anyone to tell you any different .. people do not realize how things are different in different countries and buying things especially with the taxes in Brazil are not as easy as other countries ... the basic boat could not be BETTER . you can go anywhere in the world with your boat when it is all fixed up .. so the boat is totally solid to work from .. YOU GUY ARE GREAT .. and are living the DREAM ... do not let the doubters get to you ... YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING 1000's only can dream of .. including me
you guys are truly rare and honest. well done so far and keep it up.. were loving your story and even how much in love you both are.. truly honest people.
Thank you for being so straight forward and honest about the purchase of your boat. So refreshing to see this on social media. Good luck to you on your future plans.
nice to know how you got the boat. I think your family was obviously a very good friend to Mr Odd. You deserve the money and to have a great time. I like your videos. thank you
I love the way UA-cam connects like minded people and that it enables projects like this, you two are doing such a great job, entertaining, friendly and so positive about life 👍❤👍 Don't let the detractors get to you, if they don't like what you do then they can go do their own project the way they want to. I can hardly wait to see her in the water, even if it is just for moving back to your home town. You have one beautiful boat there, and she will do you proud in the years to come!
There are times that words totally fail me. I cannot express all the good wishes I have for you two, and your future progeny. I am thrilled just watching your videos. The capper of your videos is the relationship between the two of you, it is magic. With that, you can do anything. Best wishes, I will be watching.
You are both such a wonderful gift to ones spirit. It is great to see two wonderful genuinely sweet and honest people. In a world full of such petty and hateful news, seeing you two brings a smile to my face and a lift to my spirits!! Live your life enjoy all your hard work, we are cheering you on!!
It is sweet of you to explain, i appreciate it. That said you can do as you wish we watchers just like to see the progress and listen to the stories. Thank you
I follow allot of sailboat families on UA-cam but none of them are as honest and enthusiastic as you two are ! I am now a new subscriber and I am binge watching your videos ! Loved the story about Odd and I am looking forward to your next video ...
God Bless you two! You should never have to justify or explain your finances. I wish I could have been as brave and as adventurous as you guys! But thank you for sharing your personal victory with me. I wish you fair winds and a good life!
After all you have gone through fixing the boat and still together as a couple means a lot,you are a grate inspiration for all of us, whish you the best in life. God bless you
Your timing is perfect as the trend now on UA-cam is more on the sailing lifestyle than the tiny home lifestyle. Either way, the inheritance and financial gifts are a confirmation for you both that you are on the right path. God bless you in all of your adventures. And Ciao from Italy. :-)
I am so thrilled to see the two of you, and see that you are living your dream. Yes you are putting in much work, but this puts youre souls into the boat and house. You are living my dream, may only fair winds bless you, and when foul winds occur both of you will be so well prepared to weather them for you have each other. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
To me you two are one of the best stories on UA-cam. Thanks for this video about how you got here with the boat and will look forward to following your dream.
Love the video. I bought my boat 21 years ago. She was a wreck. Every year I upgraded her and now she is my pride and joy. Enjoy the process. Sorry about your friend.
Wow sooooo impressive you’re beautiful sailboat is! I’m 65 yrs old retired 2 years ago and dream of one day owning a sailboat... I live in the finger lakes region of Upstate New York. You both totally inspire me! Stay well my friends! God bless!! 👍 Paul
I think you are right on the money with this. Even an interior like that would cost $50,000 if you were staring with a hull. Then $30,000 for spars and rigging. Also this is going to look amazing inside when you polish that interior timber. What a lovely story about Mr Odd. I have a similar memory of a big hearted guy who helped me get a job.
You two rock-plain and simply. You are such nice people who draw such positivity to yourselves. Stay awesome. Oh and the boat-the most hard core, beautiful, high quality sailboat. Great price too. Wonderful.
I’ve only just found this channel and am so glad that I have - well done you two. This is a terrific yacht and a great buy, I’m really looking forward to working through and catching up on your terrific story!!
I'm sure some people will be shocked that the boat cost 50k USD, but you've got remember this is not Europe or the Caribbean where boats are relatively cheap and this is a steel boat which will cost far less to maintain in the long term compared with a fibreglass hull. Thanks for another video guys, can't wait for the next update. Fingers crossed for the engine.
The moment I saw how beautiful the interior was, I realised that the outside was a jewel under all those years of grime. It is already showing its charm. I can hardly wait to seed your progress!
We love you, guys. I came around with one of your episodes (long ago). I always wanted to keep on watching your content, but I forgot the name of your channel...and the UA-cam algorithm didn't put you on our way again. Now we found you again. Here...in Ontario...getting ready to spend some time watching all your videos. Yeaaaaah. Cheers, be well, stay safe. You are great.
In my opinion, you two speak from the heart. You're not one of those youtubers that put on a show. You are not fake! I always enjoy watching your channel. Best wishes and much success.
Thanks so much for your kind words my friend!!😊😊
They seem real as the day is long, how can you not respect them.
💕
@@magaisacult2023 can I get an AMEN. thank you. I knew I could.
NewBeRVer...I agree...two of the most transparent people on UA-cam.
You don't have justify your purchase to anyone but yourselves. It's a nice boat and I think you did well.
😊👌🏼

This channel is gonna blow up once you start sailing. You two are just amazing, authentic and so entertaining to watch!!
Thanks, Philipp.
the repairs are an adventure in itself.
As I watched this episode, all I could see is how much love and respect that the woman had for her man. Together they shared a passion and dream, and as they went forth, the woman help guide her man with reasoning and understanding.

It’s actually cheap for Brazilian price. With this amount of money in Brazil we couldn’t get a better deal

Live your dream Duca and Roberta. Millions of people wish they had. Never be scared to try anything.
💕💕
Your channel is awesome. I wouldn’t spend too much time worrying about how other people think towards how you repair , wash or spend on the boat because it’s your baby , you two will be the ones spending time on the ship, keep following your hearts and enjoy it 👍
Keep up the good work
Thanks for the support 💕⛵️👫
Sounds like your fathers friend left much more than money for the 18, he made a difference in your lives. Sounds like a classy good man.
Indeed, William!💕💕
You guys are amazing, and I find it strange how I can watch your videos and feel as though i've known you guys forever.
☺️💕 it’s seems to us that we know you guys as well, just reading the comments every week
That’s what we can call living your dreams. I also used to sail on a french designer’s boat (Jeaneau 41) and I know how things can get old, broken, rusty and tired with age...
Hope you’ll get the boat finished like you want it to be like. Focus on a good reliable engine, strong mast and quality rigging. So excited to see it floating on water and sailing in the breeze. Enjoy and take care
💕⛵
Duca & Roberta it is refreshing to see real emotion on UA-cam and honesty , this will be one hell of a ride we are going to take with you I for one cannot wait 😎👍
😊💕
Guys dont worry about the content; house, or boat, which one is better, will the channel grow. I think the whole channel and the world you have created becomes richer...it's like unlocking a new level in a big game world...we are interested to see how the two worlds work alone and how they work together... keep it up!
Thanks so much for your kind words Nathan. 😍😍
You guys totally rock. Wish you all the best!
👫👍🏻💕
You two are very genuine, enthusiastic and enjoyable to watch. I am a new subscriber. I wish you the best of luck!
Welcome to our channel, Dave 💕
Is there another more inspiring, gorgeous, hard working, totally fabulous couple on the planet....I don't think so. I've watched a few of their vids now and there must be thousands, if not tens of thousands, of others who would love to do the same as these guys but don't have the energy, time, work ethic, money, patience, skill, enthusiasm and passion. I am in awe.
💕💕💕
I agreee with NewBeRVer.... .. I am not much for sailing, BUT I have really enjoyed watching your videos. Keep it up. I can't wait to see your sail boat finished. You guys are great !!!!
💕💕
Guys, we enjoy seiing such a complicity in your couple, such a commune commitment to your dreams!
Only thing we really miss from your videos:
You, looking into eachother eyes (and eachother hearts) and saying out loud (though in a romantic way):
"I LOVE YOU" !!!
Keep on living your dreams, and remember to have dreams in spare in case one of them gets realized.
We wish you all the best, and we are confident.
Love, Patrick & Gina
💕💕 Thanks for your kind words, Patrick and Gina
you guys got a GREAT DEAL on buying the boat ... do not let anyone to tell you any different .. people do not realize how things are different in different countries and buying things especially with the taxes in Brazil are not as easy as other countries ... the basic boat could not be BETTER . you can go anywhere in the world with your boat when it is all fixed up .. so the boat is totally solid to work from .. YOU GUY ARE GREAT .. and are living the DREAM ... do not let the doubters get to you ... YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING 1000's only can dream of .. including me
⛵️💕
Don't ever lose your dream. You have a great plan, stick to it. Looking forward to the Monday videos. Best regards, George & Debby
Thanks s much guys!!😊😊
you guys are truly rare and honest. well done so far and keep it up.. were loving your story and even how much in love you both are.. truly honest people.
💕💕
You guys are so lucky to be basically given this boat with all the extras it has .
Thanks for videos. Very authentic couple. I wish you the best.
💕💕
Thank you for being so straight forward and honest about the purchase of your boat. So refreshing to see this on social media. Good luck to you on your future plans.
💕💕 thanks
nice to know how you got the boat. I think your family was obviously a very good friend to Mr Odd. You deserve the money and to have a great time. I like your videos. thank you
💕💕💕
Found myself smiling all the way through this video. Well done you guys, and good luck for the future!
😁 thanks for the feedback and for the support, Stuart
Congratulations! What a heartwarming story! Can't wait to see you sailing and thank you for sharing!
💕💕⛵️🌎
Ignore the naysayers. You have done the right thing. Thanks for making these videos of your journey. I cannot wait.
💕
I love the way UA-cam connects like minded people and that it enables projects like this, you two are doing such a great job, entertaining, friendly and so positive about life 👍❤👍
Don't let the detractors get to you, if they don't like what you do then they can go do their own project the way they want to.
I can hardly wait to see her in the water, even if it is just for moving back to your home town. You have one beautiful boat there, and she will do you proud in the years to come!
Thanks so much for your support and kind words, David.
I love it! Your honesty and heart are in your projects! Best of luck and fair winds ahead.
💕💕
There are times that words totally fail me. I cannot express all the good wishes I have for you two, and your future progeny. I am thrilled just watching your videos. The capper of your videos is the relationship between the two of you, it is magic. With that, you can do anything. Best wishes, I will be watching.
Thanks for the kind words! ☺️💕👫
The two of you are a great young couple, keep following your dreams because that's the only way too achieve them.
👫💕
What a lovely couple, keep up the good work, and love each other.
👫💕💕
You are both such a wonderful gift to ones spirit. It is great to see two wonderful genuinely sweet and honest people. In a world full of such petty and hateful news, seeing you two brings a smile to my face and a lift to my spirits!! Live your life enjoy all your hard work, we are cheering you on!!
Thanks for the kind words, Gloria! ☺️💕
I look forward to the videos. Great to know that your inheritance was put to good use. It sounds like Mr. Odd was a generous man.
Indeed, he was. 💕
It is sweet of you to explain, i appreciate it. That said you can do as you wish we watchers just like to see the progress and listen to the stories.
Thank you
👫🌏⛵📽
I follow allot of sailboat families on UA-cam but none of them are as honest and enthusiastic as you two are ! I am now a new subscriber and I am binge watching your videos ! Loved the story about Odd and I am looking forward to your next video ...
Welcome to our channel, Mitch 💕
God Bless you two! You should never have to justify or explain your finances. I wish I could have been as brave and as adventurous as you guys! But thank you for sharing your personal victory with me. I wish you fair winds and a good life!
⛵️👫🌎
Congrats on the boat.
I imagine the former owner of the boat is happy to see the love you are putting on it.
Good winds and success!
☺️😍⛵️💕
After all you have gone through fixing the boat and still together as a couple means a lot,you are a grate inspiration for all of us, whish you the best in life. God bless you
💕💕
Your timing is perfect as the trend now on UA-cam is more on the sailing lifestyle than the tiny home lifestyle. Either way, the inheritance and financial gifts are a confirmation for you both that you are on the right path. God bless you in all of your adventures. And Ciao from Italy. :-)
👋 from Brazil. 👍⛵💕
I am so thrilled to see the two of you, and see that you are living your dream. Yes you are putting in much work, but this puts youre souls into the boat and house. You are living my dream, may only fair winds bless you, and when foul winds occur both of you will be so well prepared to weather them for you have each other. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
💕💕💕
How am I just finding this channel?? I can't wait to binge watch everything! You two are living my dream... but I'm going to get there!
😁 welcome to our channel! 🤗
To me you two are one of the best stories on UA-cam. Thanks for this video about how you got here with the boat and will look forward to following your dream.
Thanks a lot. Glad you like our content.💕
Love your enthusiasm wishing you joy and happiness.
☺️👫💕
ROBERTA & DUCA...I BELIEVE IN YOUR FASCINATING LIFE
PROJECT ...YOU ARE AMAZING..!!! from Valparaíso 🇨🇱..
💕
Great story, many thanks for sharing.⚓️
Glad tou enjoyed Sadre. 😊😊
You guys are Brilliant! A powerful example of manifestation... where Dreams meet Action. Wow!
☺️💕💕
Love the video. I bought my boat 21 years ago. She was a wreck. Every year I upgraded her and now she is my pride and joy. Enjoy the process.
Sorry about your friend.
☺️😍⛵️💕
An amazing story... looking forward to following your adventures!
💕👫💕
You are 2 lovely and incredible people. Fair winds from Alberta, Canada. Don’t ever listen to the negative Nellies out there, just follow your dreams.
☺️💕💕
Wow sooooo impressive you’re beautiful sailboat is! I’m 65 yrs old retired 2 years ago and dream of one day owning a sailboat... I live in the finger lakes region of Upstate New York. You both totally inspire me! Stay well my friends! God bless!! 👍
Paul
💕 Thanks for the best wishes, Paul
I think you are right on the money with this. Even an interior like that would cost $50,000 if you were staring with a hull. Then $30,000 for spars and rigging. Also this is going to look amazing inside when you polish that interior timber. What a lovely story about Mr Odd. I have a similar memory of a big hearted guy who helped me get a job.
😍⛵️💕💕
So very glad to hear your story. Keep up the amazing vids! Well done!
Glad you liked the story, Rob!💕
You two rock-plain and simply. You are such nice people who draw such positivity to yourselves. Stay awesome. Oh and the boat-the most hard core, beautiful, high quality sailboat. Great price too. Wonderful.
I’ve only just found this channel and am so glad that I have - well done you two. This is a terrific yacht and a great buy, I’m really looking forward to working through and catching up on your terrific story!!
Welcome aboard! Thank you so much for the support, Greg
I'm sure some people will be shocked that the boat cost 50k USD, but you've got remember this is not Europe or the Caribbean where boats are relatively cheap and this is a steel boat which will cost far less to maintain in the long term compared with a fibreglass hull. Thanks for another video guys, can't wait for the next update. Fingers crossed for the engine.
You are right Alex. Prices in Brazil are much higher than in other places and also not many options to buy unfortunately. 😢🤞🏼🍀
The moment I saw how beautiful the interior was, I realised that the outside was a jewel under all those years of grime. It is already showing its charm. I can hardly wait to seed your progress!
@@scenefromabove pretty amazing, isn't it? it's like 2 different boats.
Bumfuzzle bought a similar boat a few years ago for $80K USD. I think that 50K USD for that boat is a good price.
Blah blah.....you never buy any boat unless you can FLOAT on it first. Ever.
We love you, guys. I came around with one of your episodes (long ago). I always wanted to keep on watching your content, but I forgot the name of your channel...and the UA-cam algorithm didn't put you on our way again. Now we found you again. Here...in Ontario...getting ready to spend some time watching all your videos. Yeaaaaah. Cheers, be well, stay safe. You are great.
Welcome back!!! 😘
@@OddLifeCrafting Thanks to you. BTW, we spend 12 hours watching your videos. Ha. A big hug to both of you. Keep going. Stay safe, be well.
You are an amazing talented energetic couple. I so enjoy watching your journey. Best of everything to you!
Thanks, Jan
What a nice couple you are. I am looking forward to following you on your adventures. Dreams do come true.
💕💕👫
Por favor no dejéis la casa, sois geniales,me encanta con el cariño que te mira Roberta,un saludo desde España.
☺️💕
Love your shows, you two are amazing and wonderful, your plan for the future is solid and I wish you well. Tight lines and full speed ahead..:)
