Sailing past wild landscapes teaming with ancient history. Small towns scraping their existence out of the steep stone mountains. And a resilient people with a ferocious past. This week our plan is to sail to one of the most Isolated and untamed regions of Greece to tap into it’s violent past. But before we can do any of that we’ve got a serious engine issue that we need to deal with. While escaping the trappings of civilization has it’s benefits, the ability to easily source engine parts is not one of them. Last week we were able to put in an order for the part we need… I think. Then we’ve got to do some engine surgery before we can head out to sea in search of one of Greece’s most beautiful and treacherous regions.

Epidemic Sound
Well, I've been watching UA-cam sailing channels for a long time and, this episode is likely the most well edited, narrated episode I've ever seen! The commentary on Greek culture, the hose repair segment, the hike to the tower, and your discussion on tourism and small towns was so interesting and well crafted. Of course, Isabella was brilliant as always.
Worked in Greece for 4 years in the 90s. Go back as often as I can. I love the place,people,scenery and food
Oso was already a hero, but he leveled up destroying ruins in this episode. He needs his own channel.
You have the most happy, content child I have ever seen. She has the most precious smile! She is so fortunate to experience this life you are providing to her. You are good parents and good people. I enjoy your videos very much.
So glad you are thinking about the Pacific NW! Thats home to me! Really enjoyed this episode. Very well done! This part of Greece is so beautiful!
We are so excited that you are going to cruise the PNW! Our son is about the same age as Isa and we are also boaters based out of north Seattle. While it’s not as warm, it sure is beautiful!
Oh that’s really cool. I live in PNW too/Seattle. Looking forward to watching. I love this channel!! 👏👏
Oso, totally oblivious to fear and danger. Jumping in the water, walking casually to the top of that ruin. Love him.
The history added to each episode gives each lanscape their true value...on the gastronomic side, lately it remembered me of A.Bourdain running away from the tourist traps seeking the authentic...
Greece has soo much material for production and it is being done masterfully...the base is good, specially remebering the days when producing anchored during the pandemia. Well done..
Hey guys I have followed you for years. Congratulations, this greese location is outstanding, makes me want to take the place. Ajoy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jordan, you have an excellent voice for narration! Cheers from beautiful East Lansing, Michigan, USA
Go Green!
It is quite common for Greeks to have olive groves on the islands. It provides a second income to families. Many who work in seasonal occupations like hotels, summer restaurants, gift shops or any tourist based occupations. The tourist season runs from April-May until the end of October. Olive harvest begins in late October and can end in January-February.
That cemetery in Mani might be a family "plot" since land is limited it is common for a crypt to be reused by other family members when they pass. Bodies will be exhumed when the crypt is needed and bones placed in a metal container with the name of the relative on it and be placed within the upper chamber of the crypt. As for the pronunciation of Mani is Mah-née, where the a sounds like ah and the I is pronounced like ē. Crete comes in second to vendettas in Greece after Mani.
Greece looks pretty chill. Looking forward to the baby Dr appt. Good luck & God Bless all of you. Like the idea of a south pacific passage!
It’s a joy to see Isabella smiling all the time I bet she doesn’t even cry anymore.
Isa is just to cute! Those thunder thighs tho "that's what i called them with my oldest daughter" freaking adorable! Her smile could light the darkest of nights.
Hi! In water-cooled engines, when one of the hoses deteriorates and starts to leak, the condition of all the other water hoses is the same. Their expiration date has already expired! Change them all, or, in a very short time, one of those water hoses could burst, leaving you without an engine, at a time when you need it most. A boat is the same as a plane. Boats have a port, and planes have an airport. There is no shoulder on the high seas. Change all the hoses soon, so you have a reliable engine.
Oso has really become a boater dog. Love how he rides the front of the raft on the way to shore.
Great production!
I love the history lessons as yall sail through. Really brings together the past and present.
just a friendly advise and sorry if i sound patronising but english is not my language, in Europe especially south is custom to bring a small gift to someone who went far and beyond to help. a bottle of vine or anything. i am talking about the guy in the Marina. I also think that he sell olive oil as a side gig and would suggest to stock on olive oil from greece
it's his job, his business to order what you need
@@rockysjewel they guy gave them a gift (twice) maybe its not common in your country to reciprocate but is a usefull information to know. side effect of being nice is that you have better service and make new friends
Oso is such a Salty Sailing Dog! I love seeing him on the Bow sprit just chilling, when you were on the lean, he's figured out to use the rails to lean against! I literally laughed out loud with you when Oso sent the rock rolling !!!! Great video. Love your future plans and praying all goes well with answers for Isabella! Stay safe you four!!!
Glad to see you have a blast!
Well, hopefully when you’re coming down the California coast you can find time to stop in Morro Bay or Avila Beach! We’d love to say hi!
Another great Ep. Thank you all for what you do. Ill always continue to pray for fair winds and great health.
Hello you three from a long long time Watcher and listener, thank you❤❤❤
Great video. I love that you guys stop at super remote locales and narrate the historical significance of it. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures with us.
Best episode yet. Awesomeness. Unlike so many channels, you guys go out of your way to show and tell. Brilliant
Thank you great video. Pleasure to enjoy it together
Great video quality and very insightful thesis on tourism.
Great episode , thanks for the ride , the visuals and vibe :-)
We still build arches like that here in Maine but its mostly done with brick first and then we put a wire mesh over that and then several coats of plaster. Much love from the coast of Maine 🤙 ❤️
As always a wonderful bit of time spent enjoying the beautiful Greek scenery and some cultural insights from you guys, thanks !
Great job, love the history lesson you provided. God Be With You
Your new bt mics are a nice addition to your videos. You guys are so awesome. Keep it up.
I feel like I was there with you! Thanks for sharing...great episode!✌️💜
Great narration and filming, as usual. Your B-roll is really well put together, better than many other channels "A" roll!. By the way, the float plan you mentioned is on our list, too. If it works out go for it, you will be so glad you did.We're all looking forward to hearing how it goes in Boston, too. You deserve the best outcome possible for your family. Namaste.
Just saying your Travel Sail boating channel is so my favourite. Thank you for sharing. Shout out from West Coast BC, Canada
I've been watching you kids from the beginning (remember Cuba? LOL) and quite frankly ya'll seemed a lot happier when you had your old smaller boat goofing around the Caribbean!
they have a child with medical issues now so ....
Good point! @@rockysjewel
Love your content..Good luck with your babies assessment..God bless her from little old ireland 🇮🇪
Wow, excited to follow you when you cross the Atlantic, Hawaii, Mexico, Alaska, etc. Have done Inland Passage several times while in Coast Guard and NCL cruises. You will bring back memories. If you stop at Crescent City, CA on your way down west coast ontact me and I can give you a ride. We have marine supply, Walmart, Safeway, Grocery Outlet, beaches, rivers, and redwoods.
Amazing views! What a beautiful family you have! 🌟💗💗🌟
Thanks for a great video. ❤
Just love Oso’s bow wow sprit position. 😂😂
Great video! Absolutely loved the history lesson mixed in with today's view of the place. And a little boat repair to boot!
love the framing of your shot at 13:30 makes your boat look amazing!!
Those perforated clamps, man. Like so many mechanics say, the compression type clamps are so much better. More even grip around the whole circumference of the hose.
I don't like watching your boat repair stuff. However I'll watch it because I like all the other recordings
One word. ... Awesome
Hi guys, I’m gonna say something that you guys already know but Isabella is such a beautiful beautiful baby and you should be very proud of her. No doubt you are. Thank you for the videos. Keep up the good work , Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia
Stress can be an absolute Sod to deal with. My father was getting so stressed Out about everything, My Sister brought him a pile of cigars and a packet of Pipe tobacco back from the Caribbean - he had given up Smoking maybe 30 years prior, and in his early eighties, nothing to worrynabout right ? well the difference was staggering, and every time I hit the Continent, I brought him a pile of Cigars back, heck even Cuban ones were cheap in Hungary. And even as he started going down with Statins caused Dementia, his stressed out blowups were extremely rare, and mostly he was all smiles and Happy, and very glad to say, when he finally passed in his 90's after all the Stories about him, everyone left his Funeral Service Smiling, with his final Nurses saying - Why are you always so Happy and Smiling Doug ? Well there's No Point in Being Sad and Niserable is There, he replied. ❤ RIP Dad.
Fantastic episode! Good fix on the water hose. Very funny when Osso ruined the ruins!
🤣
Another great Saturday morning coffee with Atticus. So beautiful to see you enjoying sailing as a family. Isa has such a happy smiling face always. Oso is having lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.
Sooooooooooo happy you got connected to Better Help. You and your family are worth it........not to mention or so and Atticus II
another great saturday morning video
Awesome video - keep them coming. Safe Travels - Cheers from Ohio!
Wonderful . Old culture, great beaches
That marine store guy really knows how to greek. Absolute legend!
Beautiful episode! (Those fluffy, flaky croissants looked absolutely amazing.) 😎🥰😎🥰😎
Amazing life guys, congrats!
Thanks very much.
Wow Sailors, great video
❤
I was her age when I was on a sailboat and now I am 64 and just love sailing. Such a happy baby.
18:12 that SUN setting direction is absurd ;)
Another very entertaining video 📹 👏. Look forward to seeing you on the next one 😀 ❤.
That was a fantastic episode! Great story, interesting facts and adorable baby 🤗💞
We spend our summers in the peloponese. It is even more beautiful than you see here. So glad you all enjoyed your time there.
In Fl, Fort Barancas in Pensacola & etc...they have similar examples of the "cellar design " you found in the abandoned ruins. If I remember correctly, those areas of the arched design, is for "ammo storage".
The less populated places are absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing / safe travels ❤️🙏
How beautiful the sounding land, the way to raise your child, your family, all of it. I pray for Isa’s health daily. May Boston yield nothing but good news. 🙏🏻. Thank you for sharing everything with us. ❤❤❤
Good to hear others pray as well
Desiree, your meals look absolutely mouth watering! You should do a cookbook..
My sailing channels come and go, but Atticus will always be my Sunday morning coffee. This channel consistently entertains and informs. ❤
thanks for addressing the wildfires!
She is just TOO precious 👼
You left the clamp of the engine!
Issa is beautiful. Praying for you guys.
Another great video and always love seeing Isa's beautiful smile ♥
Oso the rock climbing hound. 😀
When I tell my kids, let's go get some firewood, they come outside with shorts and sandals on, and then get sent back to the house to get pants and shoes on. They wonder why I am so hard on them about those things, until they get tore up by the vegetation. Great episode as always
The rock on those hills was not there several thousand years ago. It was created by erosion from farming using the mold board plow. This was the farming method back then. However, the erosion has completely stripped the soil away to nothing. Today with farming using the methods I implemented on my farm, there is zero erosion of the soil. It took 20 years of dedicated development effort to learn how to do this using some of the best research minds the earth has created. But we did it. I am proud of the achievement. It is too late for this region. The soil is gone forever. If we could create soil from these rocks, then the farming methods I use in Washington state would work as well in Greece.
Hope you enjoyed the history of farming.
Hey Jordan, seeing you drinking coffe, i was wondering if you try to bring your own cup for coffee to shore. Because nowhere in the med there is proper waste burning facilities. What they do in remote regions is like setting the waste dump on fire :/ anyways i keep enjoying you discovering one of my favourite regions of Greece
I don’t know if you know, but you can get a Loctite kit called an “O” Ring Kit. This has all of the “O” Ring rubber diameters in long lengths which you can cut to length to make any loop diameter “O” you need. Once cut. The ends of the rubber are bonded together with the Loctite glue included in the kit. You no longer have to hang around waiting for an “O” ring spare part to turn up. How ever, watching your hose adventure there, the same thing can be done for engine hoses, but via a different method. Thinking, thinking…!
I think for him it's about no having space to store a bunch of things
Great video. I probably never made it that far in my sailing years, it's nice to see it here. And hearing the word "Bud" brings memories of Atticus I. Best wishes to your baby girl. Looks like some day she'll be trimming that mainsheet. Fair winds.
The best way to start ny weekend 🫶🏼
I'm glad you found a chill spot to wait out your trip back to the U.S. for Isabella's medical appointment.
how do you tell if you have a leak? Try wrapping a piece of toilet paper around it. This paper is so light it water loges quickly so easier to see if there is a leak.
I enjoy your historical commentary as you experience these wonderfully exciting places.
I hope Arrabella is going to healthy and continue the voyaging.
Isabella
Your childs smile is a ray of sunshine. On a technical note... it is good practice to change all the rubber hoses at once , they are probably the same age and are in a similar state , at least the ones that feed that heat exchanger are prone to failure subject to vibration. Dont want to jinx it but keep it in mind. Best of luck.
Not just the beautiful boat life, but the hell of information you are sharing is priceless. Thank you.
All the very best for your daughter.
I’m always late to the party on the comments but you are part of my Saturday morning routine here in Northern California, thank you.
Especially cool video you guys rock
Love the channel. Think Oso took the cake in this one, lol
Beautiful area and so relaxing. Your next couple years sound like an amazing adventure and I am excited to watch. Cheers good luck 🍀
I love that the last words in this video are “óla kalá”. Greek for “all good”, or everything’s cool.
I have watching you guys weekly for a long time now. All episodes. Thank you for documenting your journey and sharing with us. I would like to do some sort of Liveaboard sailing school/adventure, maybe in the Caribbean to get a taste of what you are living. Do you have any recommendations?
Definitely check out sail libra for offshore passage experience 😁
Thank You... Giant Hugs
I really hope that sweet baby will be ok my thoughts and prayers to all of you
I will tell you my secret to release the stress of having tons of extra people migrating into the area that I have chosen to park my house named “Bad Habits”. Too many neighbors here is my cure, I crank up my generator and pull out my guitar amplifier, guitar, and a full bottle of Captain Morgan’s spiced rum. Then I start to show all my new uninvited neighbors that I really don’t know how to play the guitar and quite possibly I am tone deaf. You should continue with your performance until at least 5:00 AM… then act like you are calling it quits and just hang out in the cabin and watch all your new neighbors pull up anchors and head to waters with more room.
love the History
Oso is such a character, even choosing the wooden plank on the bowsprit as a napping spot at 18:18, leaping out of the kayak for a swim, sending a rock tumbling from the ruin. He's great company, yet quite independent.
haha. I saw that rock rolling too 😅
Great episode. Thank you for working so hard to produce these an share your life with us. Hope the world finds peace soon an we can join you in these adventures. Love u guys.
Wow! You are mister fix-it-all. Congrats. Isa is AWESOME! Thanks God you arrived to Peloponeso and from there, ¿back to USA? Godspeed guys...
Cool place to be in ..
May God keeps her smiles with her love ones 🙏🏼🧿🧿🧿she is so cute Pie 🧿🙏🏼🧿
