    You wouldn't believe how well they took care of us, and pampered us, and waited on us hand and foot, everyday! I can't recommend them highly enough!
    Nike and Maria you are the best! Thank you so much for the wonderful time we had. You both really made it an exceptional and cherished vacation to the San Blas Islands...I hope to do it again someday...Terry

      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +7

      You made it easy for us, Terry, since you guys were great fun and we loved the group dynamic you developed over the time!
      Your wood work course looks so awesome, saw some of your pictures on FB, looked like so much fun and really interesting.
      Hope all is well and that our wakes will cross again one day!
      Ahoy, Nike

      Terry, i liked the small interview you gave at the end of this video very much.
      You seem like a very nice and thoughtful and straightforward person and i respect that a lot.
      I wish you many safe and enriching travels to exciting places for many, many years to come.

    Having followed you since the start, as one of your Patreons and as a lifelong sailor myself, I love how your narrative has developed since those early times onboard Karl. Sailing does that to us ... helps us see new things; and gain new perspectives on familiar things. In ways that land-people can’t always fathom, our lives are enriched by experiences at sea and among the people of the sea. You seem to have developed a kind of sea-serenity if I could put it that way ... singlehanded sailing presented many challenges to accompany the technical ones you enjoyed solving, but you’re a gregarious soul and there’s an inner happiness about your recent videos that is adding a new buzz. I hope your winter break at home is suiting you ... like you, I have plans for 2018 that involve boats, distance, people and options ... winter is a good space in which to think about such things! Go well .... thank you for sharing so much hard-won experience so interestingly. Roy

    This video inadvertently has become a charter advertisement, because those folks look like they are fed well and having a great, relaxed time on board!
    Smooth sailing. Peace.

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +6

      hehe, surely does not hurt if it's good advertisement for the charter business ;). But we mainly wanted to give a little insight in what running a charter business is like in a remote area like that and what it's like to be a guest on one of those. That's why we included some of the prepping and the food making etc. But of course, we are happy if it makes people wanting to book a vaca next season :).
      Ahoy, Nike & Karl

    Ahh, getting my sailing fix thanks to you Nike and Maria. I used to do work a little like that, feeding, entertaining, and transporting people by raft down a river in Northern Ca, so I know its a lot of 24/7 work. I'm an especially good cook because of this and other things that involve a lot of people in wild places. Fair Winds Mike

    I know I always praise your videos. But this one is special. It's great to see how you're involved in the charter business now. The visitors are saying how they are your fans and wanted to meet you. One aspect of your life feeds the other. Love it when things are going well for you. Once again,,, great video Nike.

  • @RobbsHomemadeLife
    @RobbsHomemadeLife 7 років тому +10

    Your content is always unique and wonderful, but I never see anybody applaud the editing of your videos. The editing is wonderful, the choice of music and video takes is so easy to watch. making long boring videos is easy and does not take any effort.A lot of work goes into making a video easy to watch and listen to in a short amount of viewing time. Thumbs up.

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +1

      Thank you Robb, I think you are very right, and I will forward your feedback to Timo and Patrice who worked on the editing for this episode. They are doing an awesome job and I have also learnt a lot about filming just by watching what they do with my footage.

      I am really greatful to them for letting me interview them about their time aboard and they were all really sweet about it. It was the first "mixed" charter on Joana and we were not sure how it was going to work out, but our guests developed a beautiful group dynamic over the week, which was awesome to watch.
      Ahoy, Nike & Karl

    Wow, that was beautiful.
    I liked very much what the last guy had to say. He seems like a lovely person.
    edit: re-watched the video to listen to the people introduce themselves, to learn "the last guy´s" name. He deserves this much respect, at least. His name is Terry. I liked what Terry had to say.

    Totally on my Bucket list of experiences to have, a down to earth trip much better than a 7 day cruise on a boring commercial cruise ship.
    Thank you for sharing your charter adventures, what a nice group of people.
    Hugs, 😚

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +1

      It is really beautiful to see how people enjoy their time in the pretty San Blas islands and on Joana. The water taxi guy said to Maria one day "your guests always give you big big hugs when they leave, they seem to really connect to you". And I think that something that Joana creates, a homey feeling. And of course that makes one happy, to see that you contributed to making someone's time worth while. I've always loved that about working in tourism,

    You and your video editor (sorry I forgot his name) did a really great job on this. The tone of this video was just as chilled and fun as always. It could easily have turned into a commercial, but you kept it just right, bringing us along on the journey, not too sanitised, focussing on the people. Thumbs up from me!

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +2

      I am happy you enjoyed the direction of the video. Of course it is nice if it brings some new charter guests for Joana, too. But our focus is more to show a little insight on how a charter business works in such a remote place and what it is like to be on one of those charters. And we were lucky that we had such great and jolly guests!

      They were an awesome crew, we had a lot of fun. And they were really interested in how to work the boat, which was nice cause I only had to pick up the anchor by myself once to show them and then they took over for the rest of the week ;). Gotta love guests like that!

      I still like to go home and see my folks and friends. But you are right, it's a great way of earning money. It's beautiful if you can contribute to making someone's vacation a fun time.

    One of your better videos. I've heard you talk about Maria doing charters so it's nice to actually see one underway. I assume she has a web site? Would you please post the link? Also, does Maria have a Facebook page for her charter business? Lot's of questions here, but have you ever done a video about how she got into the charter business? Thanks and looking forward to the reply.

    Why are some web sites saying only local people can run charters in that area? Would love to cruise early summer once the kids are out of school.

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +1

      hm, I am not sure, but as far as I know, that's only the case in Colombia, where you need to have at least one local on the boat as crew or something like that. Sorry, I am not really familiar with the regulations, that's just what I heard. And since there are a different bunch of charter boats in San Blas that do not have any locals on them, I would assume that it's not the case. You are not allowed to offer scuba diving or kite surfing, that's something I am sure about. But as far as my experience goes, as long as you pay your fees to the Kuna and involve them in the business (as in buying lobster or fish or vegetables from them or pay them to clean your hull...), they seem to be happy. You can defnititely only own land in Guna Yala if you are a Kuna or married to a Kuna.

    Langweilig. Das erste Mal fand ich den Film nicht gut. Ich fand die Karlgeschichten mit Reise- und Refiterlebnissen viel spannender. Hin und wieder Werbung für Joana ist ok, doch nur?...

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  7 років тому +1

      Hey Marco, leider kann der Inhalt der Folgen nicht immer allen gefallen. Ich finde es eigentlich mal ganz interessant, einen anderen Aspekt des Seglerlebens vorzustellen. Viele Leute fragen sich ja, wie man sich finanziell über Wasser halten kann, wenn man so auf einem Boot lebt. Chartern ist eine von vielen Lösungen. Und wir haben versucht, ein wenig die Hintergründe / Umstände des Charterns in einer etwas entlegeneren Region zu zeigen. Das Feedback zeigt auch, das viele das eigentlich ganz interessant fanden und nicht als Werbung wahrgenommen haben. Natürlich ist es schön, wenn es durch die Filme neue Buchungen gibt. Maria hat mir so viel auf Karl geholfen, da ist es schön, wenn ich etwas zurück geben kann.
      Diese spezielle Chartergruppe bestand ausschließlich aus Followern von Untie The Lines, was auch noch mal eine andere Komponente reinbringt. Die haben sich natürlich auch gefreut, dass sie dann selbst ein Teil von Untie The Lines sein konnten.
      Aber keine Sorge, es gibt noch ein Video auf Joana und danach bin ich wieder zurück auf Karl, denn das ist und bleibt ja auch der Fokus der Doku.
      Ahoi, Nike & Karl
