Congrats to Mads and Ava! We are both so happy for you guys. This is the best collaboration you will ever do.....and remember, happy wife= happy Sail Life. Cheers buddy! 💕💕
What an awesome and heartfelt way to use you teak....It seems Athena has been giving you a lot more than just a project. We first began watching you from the beginning..Pre Athena and we liked you very much...now we have grown to love your videos and love the way you have blossomed. You have really overcome your shyness and have grown so much...truth is we love watching Ava too..she has the same cuteness and shy side you first had too..we think you make a great couple..congratulations🍾🍾💐🥂🥂💐🥰🇨🇦
You and Ava so deserve one another. Thank you so much for sharing. Baseball season is opening so I will miss your live stream; I'm so glad to have found you before you proposed. There are so many words and none I can find properly express the joy you and Ava give. The love a man and woman develop for one another is insanely powerful. So please, keep on keeping on. You folks are perfect.
You never cease to amaze with your boundless creativity! Congratulations! This is me, married to the same woman for 40 years, wishing you and Ava a lifetime of happiness.
I am so happy for you two. I've been following your journey for more than 3 years now, going through both good but rough times also. You are the reason I am waiting for the weekend to end so that I can see what you have been up to on your build. You've been and are like an old friend who I see every week on UA-cam, but I hope, I really hope, that someday our paths will cross and we will get to know each other in person! CONGRATULATIONS again, and I wish you all the best! (p.s.: That ring tho... wow)
Congratulations Mads and Ava! I feel foolish for not reading any comments while I was watching, but am glad I didn't ruin the surprise for myself lol. Cheers from never-going-to-warm-up PEI Canada, Bryan.
good evening Mads.just wanted to let you know that I'm living in the past -that is im a year behind on your progress and i am absolutely hooked.your work and patience is envious . i am a year behind because i have been doing my own little yacht restoration and have now finished, so what is better than doing your own boat -watching someone else toiling away. congrats on your engagement to Ava by the way.i did however go to my hardware store and ask for some doohickeys and they just looked at me in a funny way and called the police.haha.
Congratulations, I love the special ring. I made my wife the first ever toughened zirconia ceramic ring on the planet 27 years ago and proposed with it, she has never taken it off, it is a truly special thing to do.
That was one of the coolest things I have seen. A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS IS IN ORDER. All the best wishes from right here in So. Cal! Home sweet home from my Dutch bride and me. (47 years of relative bliss...it can be done!!!)
Congratulations Mads and Ava !!! - couldn't think of a better way to kick off your adventure together. May Fair Winds and Calm Seas be with the two of you for many many years.
I usually don't comment on any videos, but this time I felt I had to - Thank you for bringing us all along on your adventures so far, and especially because this is only the beginning of so many more wonderful adventures to come. Congratulations to you both!! Wish you the very best, and again, Thank you!
Congratulations! I have a suspicion that was going to happen when you turned the old deck into ring. Pretty special. All the best guys and stay blessed. Cheers from NZ.
Was I the only one who snuck towards the ending to get a peek..then went back to watch the rest of the video?? Congrats to the three of you.(including Jukol)
Wow best ring ever! Congratulations to you and Ava. I was wondering where you were going with all that, now we know. Pretty cool actually, but then we would expect no less from the master of the spiffy!
Congratulations Mads & Ava! Awesome ring Mads, amazing. Wishing you both the best of luck for a long life filled with love and joy. It's off to a good start!
Congratulations to you and Ava, what a great 'Sail Life" way to announce your engagement! This was absolutely the best video EVER!!! God Bless you both!
Congrats guys!!! Best wishes from the bottom of my heart. Now, Ava you need to move in with Mads so he can concentrate on your boat. You've been a terrible distraction and his fans need him now. 😂😂😜😜👍👍👌👌
Oh, Oh...one man and his boat...and than a woman shows up and the boat goes in slow motion...anyway...my boat did! Congratulations Mad, I hope you will make Ava very happy!
Congratulations to you both - I had absolutely no idea at all where that one was going until the very last few minutes. Thank goodness you got the technology to work in time.
Mads, I read the spoiler alert first so the rings were easy to guess when you made the first two circles. Congratulations! Not only is Ava getting a wonderful and resourceful human being for a life partner you are getting a beautiful and spirited partner as well. May Oden bless you both with joy and happiness. Now get back to work and get Athena finished so that wonderful lady of yours has a nice home to take everywhere in the world with you. See you next week.
That is so dang spiffy! Congratulations to the both of you and I hope you manage to persuade Ava to relocate to Denmark and that we don't lose you across the pond! I'm planning a mini cruise to Skive in the summer so I hope you'll be there still...
Awesome and oh so spiffy.!!! A toast from your Canadian friend on the occasion of DIY perfection in pre-diamond and teak ring making along with all that it entails.
That's AWESOME!!!!! I'm so proud of you bud! And happy for the both of you. In Canada, there is a saying you might get a giggle from. If they can't find ya handsome, at least they can find ya handy! LOL! Cheers and congratulations to the both of you.
congratulations!!!! After 25 years of marriage my husband made me a metal spinner ring on his lathe. I have a big diamond but I love my spinner ring more because of the time and effort he put into it. And the diamond gets caught on stuff., I hope you made one for yourself and you can have matching wedding bands.
Very cool and extremely geeky way to make an engagement ring! Congratulations!! Ava saying yes with that ring as a token is an extremely good sign that you have proposed to the right woman ;)
Congrats you guys. Oh and if you are ever about 1600 miles north of LA I will show you several of the CNC things. 8 to be exact. One of them cuts 10 foot long.
Congratulations guys! Best of luck. With thad said, don't forget you were ours first Mads, you have obligations to us, we need that DIY fix every week :-)
Livestream next Sunday (March 31 @ 11 AM Pacific)! We'll be hanging out and talking about our plans for the future now that we're engaged :)
Isn't this a spoiler?
Congratulations guys!!! See you
Good lad.

Congratulations, I love the special ring. I made my wife the first ever toughened zirconia ceramic ring on the planet 27 years ago and proposed with it, she has never taken it off, it is a truly special thing to do.
I saw 8 little squares of wood, a CNC machine, and a logo with just the right number characters - so not what I was expecting - all the best!
Congratulations guys. Wish you a long, happy and healthy life together.
Congratulations you two. It’s so perfect that you DIY’d the ring.

There is more love and commitment in those rings than could ever be purchased at a jewelry store! Congrats to you and Ava!
Except it looks like the ring she's wearing at the end has a diamond on it, so...
@@garysouza2277 That is an engagement ring. I am assuming these are wedding bands.
@@asraharrison-So she's gonna wear them both???? Highly unlikely...
I usually don't comment on any videos, but this time I felt I had to - Thank you for bringing us all along on your adventures so far, and especially because this is only the beginning of so many more wonderful adventures to come.
