UA-cam recommended this video to me. At first glance of the thumbnail, I thought, Oh these people have no clue why the things are laid out inside a sailboat. Everything needs to have multipurpose functions. Pretty things don't make sailing easier when you are in a big storm. Nobody has been able to improve on these interiors for decades. I have to watch this video to see the train wreck. Then while watching, my jaw dropped to the floor in disbelieve. I can clearly tell you have offshore experience and know what would work and doesn't. You found a way to improve a sailing 'yacht' interior to not only function better but also aesthetically look better. If I ever buy a similar sailing yacht like your's, I plan to implement the same changes you did. I'm also a photographer and I like your ideas of where to store your gear. Thanks for sharing your works.
As a U.S.C.G. Licensed Master and USCG Licensed Instructor (training future captains) 👮🏼♂️ a solid salute ✋🏻 😊!
This is the ultimate compliment!
So glad you responded the way you did. 👍👏 It blows the know it all trolls opinions out of the water, and eliminates the negative feelings the maker may have had.
Also, I felt the same way about the improvements, and will think about them when finishing my little 20 foot Vivacity rebuild.
And to think neither had ANY prior sailing experience when they bought the “fixer upper” sailboat (for 3k!?)... though they have been at it for a few years now, it would appear... necessity’s the mother of invention, and they’ve certainly got an eye for aesthetics... great vid, inspirational even!
It's the exact same reaction I had my friend. I was pondering why tear things apart to just re-do it but they have re-engineered wall to wall in an ingenious way that makes every other video fall short. So awesome to know that "there's always a way'!
I completely agree with you! ⚓
This has to be one of the best executed boat tours I've ever watched. The reference to the floor plan when you talk about what remodeling you did, along with back and forth between before and after, gives a crystal clear picture of what your boat looks like inside both when you bought it and after the work. Well done!
A lot of hours went into these 35 minutes, and it shows.
And the boat itself is brilliant. The wood stove made me blink, but they could go on a grand tour of Norway if they wanted to now.
I'll have to check out the deck vid now.
Love your galley ideas. I will utilize the lazy Susan and possibly the pot filler idea into my RV redo. Great creative & well thought out solutions! Just found your channel. Looking forward to watching all your videos.
I couldn't agree more.
Totally. I've watched a lot of boat tours (and house or farm tours) and I find it so frustrating because I can't orient myself and I want to know where something is in relation to something else. The floor plan is so helpful. I also really appreciate the regular back and forth between the before and after, and sometimes the before, between, and after photos.
You obviously put a lot of thought into creating your home and I appreciate how much thought you also put into creating this video and the time it must have taken to search for the exact footage you wanted to use.
@@2potornot2pot the pot filler is the best idea for a small space, isn't it? A faucet actually takes up so much room when you think about it and because it's mounted on the wall you can get a much larger sink into that space. The ability to fold it away and also the reach it has makes it a brilliant solution. And yes, if I'm ever in a position where I'm renovating a small space I will also be implementing this idea.
I love the fact that you two had absolutely NO experience with boats or sailing when you started... and that turned into a TON of experience and truly amazing design ideas.
'Heavy Susan' is genius. The bathroom redesign is inspired. Everything shows how the two of you have worked to create a living space that is truly multifunctional... simple but at the same time well thought out. Great job!
"Hefty Susan"
11:46 is a simple fix, simply install two wooden blocks on the bottom of the cutting board, one on each end, that will lock in the lazy susan when the cutting board is in it's closed position. I'm still impressed you guys came up with that lazy susan idea entirely, that's next level problem solving.
Problem is then you would have to align it perfectly before closing it every time. I think magnets would work better
@@mathboy_ you could wedge the boards so it would be self aligning.
Not rich, not experienced sailors (starting out), just damned hardworking, inventive, adventurous, and brave. You two are living the perfect life. Although you have proven it is possible, I know 100% I could not have done it. These are not how-to videos, because to follow your example requires so much character and know-how to begin with. Enjoy living like gods; you have earned it. Thank you for taking me along in this way.
The Lazy Susan won me over, so freaking cool!
The “20-25% more storage” won me over. These two speak like my wife (of 31 years) and I do-an Engineer who cringes at many UA-cam “do it yourselfers”
I was like where is the lazy Susan in the beginning
Such a good idea!
I think you mean Hefty Susan.
That deserves a Nobel Prize for sailors !
I have been a Contractor for 40 years - Your Carpentery / Renovation skills are amazing, especially on a boat with no straight lines to pull from. Simply outstanding work.
Woohoo!!!
I think one of the biggest advantages you had in designing this layout is not being set in how boats have always been laid out! By not being constrained in the ways things have always been done on sailboat layouts it opened up so many cool possibilities! I lived aboard a 29' Bristol for 6 years- so many of your innovations would have greatly improved my limited space!
My hats off to the both of you- love the practical, beautiful layout and the ingenious use of space!!! Super functional, well thought-out and still beautiful!
You two are storage and inventing geniuses. Seriously, I’ve never seen better use of space. Anyone trying to make do in a small space should watch this. 🏆
Me either. They should be designing boats.
I believe they are both architects. That would explain so much, wouldn't it?
Smart ideas all over.
@@applebutter4036 They should be teaching classes :D
How messy will the divorce be? Each will get 1/2 a boat!
The amount of time and energy you've put into Uma is really amazing. You've turned $3000 into... Your whole life. It's really an extension of who you guys are. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
?? sl1pg8r the ark player why are you where ???? on a boat vid well hello
Big fan Sl1p also yea the boat really is amazing
Renovation probably cost a lot
Wow slipgator ark player
Are you getting inspiration for an Ark build perhaps? Hmmmm (Much love, always enjoy your videos)
All I can say is "Wow!" You guys have done an amazing job bringing this boat along. It looks clean, elegant and modern. Excellent work you guys!
OVER 2.4 MILLION VIEWS AND IT IS TO NOTE THAT YOU GUYS INSPIRE!
Can I just say that I really love that you don't have a fancy intro and that you don't use clickbait bikini photos in all your thumbnails! So refreshing.
Give em time.😏
We have sailed all our lives, owned several boats, 35 years in BC, Canada. Sailed The Bahamas and The Caribbean, crossed the Atlantic, and are now retired and happy we did it. Boy, I wish we could have watched your videos 20 years ago. What an inspiration, sail on and fair winds.
The blooper section of these videos make you guys so much MORE human ( to me anyways ) !!!
As a miritime engineer i am very much impressed with this project. It blows my mind how well every thing comes together, so proffesional. you've got yourselfs a beautifull boat!
SO, Ive watched so many videos on sailing and buying a boat. You two have hit a home run in my eyes, how cool to make your dreams come true. Your boat is outstanding and you’ve both done such a great job on the refit. Loved your video, thank you..
Your architect degrees have been put to good use ... your now interior designers and naval architects too !!! Well done 👍
It should be written either “ . . . you are now interior” or “ . . . you’re now interior.” But either way, it is just beautiful. Good luck on your voyages.
Uma, the boat, is pure genius. Certainly a 1-of-a-kind. The engineering is incredible topped only by the craftsmanship of installation. However, what impresses me time & time again is the absolute perfect teamwork with which you two make it all look so simple. It's like a dance. You guys deserve to be very, very proud of what you have accomplished. You have made this 36' monohull look absolutely HUGE inside. Congrats! I think you are going to make profound changes to interior yacht design concepts. 👍
Cyril Culton r
Hear hear! I second that, you're absolutely right, they did an amazing job of refurbishing their boat 💥👍🏼☺️
Would be nice if a big yacht company would assign them do the aesthetics/interior of the boat. And with the money they could upgrade theirs to their desired maximum. Edit: I meant of a boat/not “the boat”
I’ve loved following the transformation/maturity of these two as well as the transformation of Uma. Such a beautiful, clean interior (unlike others I’ve seen which are a cluttered mess). Great job you two!
I've been watching a lot of boat renovation vids lately because my wife and I are interested in taking up sailing, and eventually buying a boat and your renovation is by far the smartest and best use of space I've seen yet. It's giving me a lot of ideas for any future purchase.
Putting aside the fact that this interior is in a boat, THIS is how you do minimalist design. There's still soul left. So many minimalist designs these days end up eliminating a lot of emotion and visual elements by nature of making things as minimal as possible. Props to you guys!
This is a masterclass in modern interior boat design!
One would think a boat building company would hire them for consulting for new ideas!
@@terrypennell416 They could actually legitimately qualify except I believe most boat designers are marine engineers and not architects. Dan, what is the skinny on that?
Amazing what you have done with your 50 year old boat. luv the practically you've managed to come up with.
Absolutely! I kept wondering if anyone has approached you with requests for design advice or even employment. Uma is definitely the roomiest 36/38 I've seen. Always fun videos. Cheers!
Yes, I was very impressed with the clever, clean, professional build!
Dan and Kika, I love all your steps, and have watched them all. you are amazing and are an inspiration to all sailors. Uma looks incredible. well done, and thank you for sharing your amazing journey with us
She's beautiful guy's. It's amazing as long as you purchase a solid vessel, you can make her your own. Cosmetics are just time consuming and fun, but not fun sometimes lol. I bought a 1985 22 ft Sea-Ray, 20 yrs ago. I still have her today. Because of all the work I've done, and enjoy her, there's no reason to upgrade. She came with a small cuddy cabin, a sink, and even a head. I've slowly re-done everything year by year. Installed an outside shower, and many other thing's made my own. And of course all my electronics, emergency gear, and all I need to stay safe. She's good for me to do 7 day trips, or longer, with friends, family or just me. Stay safe can't wait to watch all the vids. 🙏 😎 ⛵
For the fruit hammock issue, I’d sew a piece of stretchy material to the back top of the hammock, and when you set sail just pull that stretchy “lid” over the fruit/veg and either tie down or maybe clamp/Velcro down to the front of the hammock. Problem solved. Or you could just tie a string to the middle of the front and run it straight up to an attachment above it under the cabinets & tie it off, hoisting the front high enough that the fruit won’t go spilling over. This boat interior looks like it was designed in the finest of Italian studios, working hand in hand with practical engineers with tons of boating knowledge. What an amazing job you two. Can’t get over how well done this is!
This is crazy, these two could make a killing flipping houses
They could, but then they wouldn't be sailing around the world experiencing more life than most people do. Money doesn't buy everything.
Forget flipping houses...
They should be flipping old cruising sailboats!
They need a course in interior design. They almost nailed it but the back of the boat is ugly compared to the front view.
@@LambdaZetaTeke was thinking the same thing. They would make bank
I bet HGTV can make a show out of this
This documentary of your boating evolution is so clear! Everything has been so well thought out and executed on the boat and video. Zen masters!!!!!👏👌👍😉
Only watched one show. These two are amazing communicators, entertainers, designers, engineers, and handy people. Love your spirit and power. This is awesome.
After reading a lot of the comments people have complimented you on your interior design and use of space. They seem to forget that you two have done all the cabinet making! That is a huge feat in itself. You two have no fear tackling a project and doing a very professional job at it.
I'm a cyclist, and cyclists say that; If you and your partner get a tandem bike, it won't change the course of your relationship, it will just get you there faster.
I think your yacht does that and then some, and as much as I admire your home, I admire your relationship more.
take care of each other :)
What a nice comment! I said sort of the same thing but I didn't say it quite as simply. Mine turned into a short story! haha!
Couple with tandems either end up bonded for life or divorced quickly... The tandem riders I know all dress the same... on and off their bikes. :) These two look like they've done the sailing equivalent, look like a great couple that is enjoying their journey, not enduring it.
@@scottwa That makes so much sense! I've only ever ridden a tandem bike once. It was old and didn't have gears. We had a long way to go and it wasn't much fun at all. I'm sure if my wife would have been my wife at that time, it might have made or broken us! Yes, this couple most definitely seem to be enjoying their journey, not enduring it. I think that would be a great phrase to print on a T-shirt. Something like, Life is meant to be a journey to enjoy, not to merely endure.
um ... no ...
living on a boat compares to a van, not so much a bicycle or motorcycle
and no, a tandem bicycle wont neccessarily get there faster, at all, sheesh, you have got to be kidding
everyone should have their own cycle
but vans can be shared
same diff for clothing,
two ppl can each wear shorts n a tshirt, without both wearing one pair of fourlegged pants
but, now that i think about it, i suppose two rich ppl could each have a big sailboat, and sail alongside eachother, around the world, i suppose.
There was a saying about early twin engine aircraft - when one engine failed, the engine would just get you to the crash site faster.
Now all the jets can climb, fly and land on one engine I assure you.
Second time ive watched this video and it's still awesome. I really like the kitchen faucet. The way it folds flat against the wall is great. What ypu guys did to a 3k boat with dead motor is just incredible. This is so cool to see that a little imagination and hard work is all you need.
this is by far the most beautiful boat interior that i`ve ever seen! love it!
32:39 "We were just trying to get to the next horizon, and getting to the next horizon we figured out what we needed to get to the next horizon."
That's one hell of a quote.
Hmmmmm
I think the “heavy susan” is my favorite idea, honestly didn’t even think about that.
Same it's insanely genius and I'm wondering how I can build that into my house lol
@@ItsPrinceTaz The corner cupboards in my kitchen have 2 tier lazy susans with 2 part hinged doors to get at them. It's such a good use of space. They have a corner cut into them so the door closes flush with the other cupboards and when you spin the susans around they are poking out of the cupboard essentially, making it super easy to access.
Yes! Genius!
I agree and they can easily fix the issue with the susan rotating out at sea by installing two wooden blocks on the bottom of the cutting board, one on each end. The cutting board in the closed position will lock it in.
"Hefty Susan"
The "Hefty Susan" idea is frikking brilliant!
Just starting to look into purchasing a sailboat……..NOW EVERY BOAT IS 50+ years older looking thanks to the great work you two have done to yours!!!!! AWESOME JOB!
One of the smartest, best designed cabin interiors I've ever seen. You put professional boat interior designers to shame. Almost everything you design is surprising and never seen before.
yeah they should get into small boat design and model after this boat, probably buy some older mold of a boat.
Yes, I agree. Sometimes it takes someone with no experience or no preconceived ideas to be able to think outside the box and find the best solutions, doesn't it?
@@stephanieellis5399 I wonder how many boat designers put their own design to the test like you guys did.
Yes the lazy Suzanne storage is incredibly unique and useful. Even for use on land. I have never seen storage like that.
Their architecture degrees certainly give them an advantage for creative solutions the average sailor might not have.
This "lazy Susan" you invented in the corner is amazing!
gabimerlin Right??? Excelent 👌🏼👌🏼
I think the whole project is amazing.
Curb your enthousiasm Lazy Susan
*Hefty Susan
They didn’t invent the lazy Susan
It's genius what you guys did with that boat (1% inspiration 99% perspiration)! I discovered your channel years ago and binge watched it through all the renovations then followed along. What an awesome adventure! I'm so glad you didn't buy a couch! Amazing!
I remember when you started........another crazy couple.......I been folding boats the last 40yrs. I must tell you ..I'm Impressed with what you have accomplish. Not only that but how well you have redone the Pearson it totally looks impressive an well done. Kudos to you both. I bet your dad in Jamaica is happy also. love you guys keep up with the wind where ever you go. God Bless an fair winds. pss i will keep an eye out for you guys
My biggest reason for alcohol over propane is safety.
No matter what, if there is a stove fire, you can put it out with the water on hand.
I know this from experience. We had a fuel line rupture while cooking at sea - the alcohol leaked and fire spread - the Captain grabbed the pot of water we were boiling for a spaghetti dinner and dumped it on the flames. End f crisis.
On land, while RVing we used alcohol stoves, that way we did not have to worry about tunnels and bridges which do not allow hazardous/pressurized fuels and, therefore did not have to go around the long way.
While hiking, alcohol has been a favorite because it is available just about everywhere and operates even in the dark or after multiple cloudy days in a row!
P.S. Love your home-boat!
The trouble I have with alcohol is the colorless invisible flame when burning. We lent ours to a neighbour to use on their 56 foot Schooner decades ago and they almost burned the ship down. It overflowed and he lit it without knowing the alcohol ran down the side. His quik thinking wife grabbed the stove, raced up the companionway, and threw our brand new stove overboard.
Alcohol has never been aboard any of our boats again, except for drinking.
Propane is scary, but when properly installed with auto shutoff sensors is totally safe.
@@Daviddickson What an interesting "event" - glad they were OK!!!!
I wonder why it was invisible...mine wasn't/isn't.Weird. We sure did know it was afire during our "event"and could follow the flame trail to put it out.
As for tossing it overboard - quick thinking indeed! Ours was attached [double gimbals] so it remained onboard.
Grin? Yeah, I can grin now, decades later...
Anyway, enjoy & safe sailing!
dross24MA pure alcohol burns clear. You may have had an additive that allowed the flame to be seen
@@dross24MA All great information here! Glad I read these comments! We've always used propane but haven't been against alcohol, just haven't had the opportunity to use it for cooking. There is a lot to think about here.
@@johnp8189 Makes sense to me...
She's one of the most innovative and practical boats on UA-cam. You've really made her your own. Great work
The two of you have put a lot of thought, and work, into this. WELL DONE.
Keep coming back to this episode. One of my many favorites!
Bruh.This boat is more roomy, and spaceous than the flat i live in.
And probably costs less.
Sad
@@NIGHTMARERICA Conclusion:Live in a boat!
You must have a small flat...
It's definitely not, it just seems like it is.
I am NOT lazy!
Er. I might be described as "hefty," though.
Oh my gosh! That made me laugh out loud! Great comment! I needed that this morning! Great sense of humor Susan!
😜
I needed that
❤️ the whole project. You guys must be proud of your designed and built. The rotating storage idea ….is really genius! 👍
Your openness as a couple is manifested in your interior design. What an inspiration for us all.
The interior of Uma is the coolest, most thoughtfully designed and laid out that I have ever seen! You made it fit your needs rather than trying to adjust yourselves to traditional boat design! Kudos!
As I am following Uma since the beginning, this tour was like refresh tour of uma. She's a beautiful sailboat
You too are astounding. Your brilliance and how you two designed each and every component has me blown away. As far as the exasperations, I know how you felt along the way, and this comes from a guy who rebuilt (over 90%) a 120 year old farmhouse with 18 inch thick cement walls. Isn’t it fun how insanely crazy design quirks in our home often shows us the way to even better options that work!
Seeing the work you've put in to Uma here but looking back on it from May 2023 and knowing what changes you've made in the last little while (I won't give any spoilers for those who are bingeing these videos in order) it's still incredible to see.
As mentioned by others, this is an excellent tour with floor plan and cuts to befores and afters. Your ability to work as a team and envision what ways you need her to change, what ways you want her to change, what ways she cannot change due to structure, expense, complexity of what it would entail and then execute the plan. I also love the way you think outside of the traditional boat-box: the multipurpose nook, the new desk, the reimagined food storage and fridge, the head, the space that was the "garden" and became the pellet stove... And I love that the three of you aren't stagnant in that process. Granted, sometimes Uma has forced you to make changes you otherwise may not have made at the time but then... I guess that's sometimes what happens, right. One partner doesn't say a whole lot most of the time and then they make decisions that the rest of the team can only react to because the decision has been made.
It's good to come back and watch videos like this every once in a while and reflect on how you're continuing to learn and adjust and grow as a team of three (cuz Uma really can't be ignored as a big personality in this adventure of yours).
The interior and solutions are absolutely fantastic. An idea for the future: a company that remodels boats just the way you did yours.
Even if we were talking just about the projects in software, that would be very cool!
yes the can do like adult summer camp come learn how to fix repair ......people would pay for that i know i would.
Yes for sure good idea 💡
The "Hefty Susan" is a unique solution that I like a lot
I'm REALLY digging the zen vibe y'all gave the boat interior... I felt relaxed just admiring the decorations. Definitely gave me some AWESOME ideas and inspiration. 🙏
You guys did an amazing job. We used to sail around in the Caribbean on Morgan 46 and centurion 47 and they were just about what you started with. Brings back a lot of memories. Amazing the effort and fortitude you to put into something at such a young age. Congratulations
So in 35 minutes I fell in love with your boat
I look at the charging ports and think 50 years from now people will say “they had to charge phones?” I hear you on the composting toilet. Its one thing to use one (they are awesome btw) but another thing altogether *explaining* how to use one lol. Been there. You two should be interior boat designers for hire. Brilliant ideas and applications! ❤️
So glad we found this video. We are soon starting our remodel and y’all have some great ideas. Love how much of an improvement it was.
Love you guys! Thanks for sharing. Awesome to see a couple living they’re dream. Never forget how fortunate you are to have each other.
That Hefty Susan idea is the best pantry EVER. Absolutely Brilliant!!!
All of the upgrades and renovations done on Uma really makes it YOUR home. The before and after of the interior has such a huge difference. Thanks for the tour!
Beautiful, cozy AND efficient. Amazing!
I’ve followed you from the beginning and I as an older sailor who started with a S&S designed Sailmaster22 through a Pearson 35 and Pearson 365 down to a 16 ft Pringle catamaran from our waterfront Annapolis home before moving to retirement in The Tampa Florida. Absolutely look forward to every post especially now that your in Iceland. Your completing my dream of World sailing. Every episode brings back great memories for which we thank you! Fair Winds and Calm Seas
After 20 years of designing and living in small spaces of all types, you guys are literally the first people I've ever seen with an identical design philosophy. Our latest project (a tiny house on wheels) is eerily similar. Like, literally it looks the same inside with so many shared multipurpose solutions. Very cool. Thanks for the tips and all the effort that goes into making these videos. Subscribed!!
I am careful about using the word “perfect”, but honestly, Uma is now a perfect reflection of you two! So well done!😁💥🎉
I have to say I love how clean a modern you’ve made Uma❣️ I’ve been watching a few other sailing UA-camrs and it’s amazing how cluttered their boats look. With old disused equipment taking pride of place, and the stuff they really use, added in a haphazard manner. Four faucets of the kitchen sink; 1 very fancy, looking like what would be used in a house, 1 little spout for sea water, another little spout for drinking water and I didn’t catch what the 3rd little spout was for, all the little spouts used a foot pump. These faucets seemed to be added at random around the sink, probably as needed. I guess it is easier to accumulate than to pare down. It’s also to me amazing how many folks use extra sleeping bunks as storage by piling stacks of stuff on it,rather than just converting it to permanent storage
Anyhow, love what you’ve done with Uma so far, both functional and beautiful!
You guys are my idols. You are doing something that I wanted to do when I was single and, offered a 32 ft. sailboat. Love the video, I living vicariously through you two! Thanks for posting.
I smile every time I think how you saved this beautiful old boat and her good bones smile at you every day. Boats have their unique sounds, moves, smells. A boat soul!
Finally. A highly practical conversion that has stunning design value. Did not expect to find this! Huge congrats from UK
Everything you 2 did is 100% perfect… Boat manufacturers could learn from you 2. My favorite part of the boat is the massive lazy Susan and the work table. What a beautiful boat..
Absolutely amazing the way you’ve used every inch for functionality is incredible … it’s comfy and practical !!
my dream was a tiny home, then i moved onto a van, then an apartment, then a normal caravan.
NOW I WANT TO LIVE IN A BOATTTT
📸 Tom Holland shared the first picture from the set of the untitled SPIDER-MAN 3, which started production last week. And yes, he's actually wearing two masks, because you know, safety first ;)
I agree!!
Wonna team up I'm on the east coast
While the outside looks good, inside is where Uma really shines. You have made it look luxurious and comfortable. I expect you have already learned about this word, I'd like to describe your interiour as: gezellig
Gesellig and comfortable, she truly looks!
Uitstekend.
I would say "Noflik", Don't know you got that far north yet :-)
Or уютный
Not a new or original idea.... I have seen this in homes I lived going back 40 years..... commonly used in corner cabinets. Access from above is less common.... but yes they did a great job using that space.
Oh my!! This is simply the BEST interior boat tour I've ever seen!! So many great ideas!! THANK-YOU!!!
I love what you've done with it. It looks like a really nice space to be in, and nothing about it says 50 year old boat.. It's so clean and current. Thanks for the tour.
Good job.
I like their use of the word, “we”...
This is the most amazing transformation I've ever seen! Boat builders and designers should take note of your ideas, and solutions. Well done.
Thanks for sharing your life with us. This is what my girlfriend and I hope to do one day as well. Living off grid and being free is where it’s at. You guys are amazing and your home is perfect!
Your interior is such a breath of freshness for a boat all in white. Amazing from an Architect
Put two architects in a boat and this is what you get! Very impressive!!
Are they architects?
@@o.h.w.6638 yes
This was really interesting, I'm retired from the Coast Guard so I have experience with small birthing areas. The innovations in the design you came up with are great. Thanks for the excellent video.
Thank you, truly. I'll never be able to express the life changing direction, inspiration, and enriched perspective you provide with the example you are gracious enough to share. Thank you. Brilliant! I know finally feel that I WILL do this.
Hefty Susan - Brilliant! Absolutely Brilliant!
WoW can you say
‼️EFFICIENCY‼️
Very impressive!
You have a very Beautiful floating home! Thank you for sharing. ⛵
Kika has beautiful hair. Living your dream guys. What an awesome life. The best in life for you both!
WOW, I am extremely impressed with the well thought out plans you made on the renovations. You took a cheaper boat and made it into small Yacht. Simply beautiful.
Goes to show, everything tradition in boating needs a huge ride over the side of a railing every now and then,
Great ideas, focus, attention to details and personal touch. Keep it up. Pure inspiration to the rest of us.
Sometimes when I'm working on a project at home, I think "What would Dan do?"
You two are a couple of clever cookies 😊
So why did they bother to go to college? Waste of money!
@Jimmy Neutron How would you know that if you didn't go to college?
@@johnsherman7289 Burned him badly :-)
I think their architectural studies served them well.
"Clever cookies" 😂👍❤️ That they are!
Simply Stunning, Dan I'm sure a Boat Designing job is waiting for you somewhere, incredible!
I love what was done with your home!! It's beautiful and well planned. Great job!
To echo that sentiment... You have come a long way in five years, both counting the actual miles as well as the progress on projects.
It has been a joy to ride along with you on your journey. Thanks for Sharing.
This is the first video of your guys'' I've found. I really like your vibe and your boat. I have an Islander 36 from around the same time. The 70's were good for cruising.
Love how you all made it work for you and your needs
I was looking for space saving solutions, and this is absolutly brilliant! Not only have you two created such incredible multifunctional spaces, but you both seem very calm and happy in each others company. A great video to watch!
Good stuff. Love how you took your time and thought about how the current systems could be improved. I have owned a 73 VW bus for the past 13 years and like you, the projects have never stopped. This season it's new solar and electrical systems and removing a sink and water storage that I haven't used in the past 5 years. It's all part of owning an older vehicle/house.
Thank you for the tour and explanations and thanks for taking us along on your adventurous journey. Stay safe and have fun.
having spent time on quite a few monohulls (and a cat or two) I have to say your layout/design is THE BEST I have seen - brilliant!
The pantry is well thought out, practical and hidden.
Super idea.
