We are thrilled over your decision, just take your time, allow the yard worker's their experience and in no time you'll be enjoying your new purchase. So excited for you both. Enjoy!
It's great to see your passion for your new boat. I enjoy boat project videos and will be following the journey. As you purchase tools for your work..please consider getting the best quality that you can. Inadequate tools make the work much harder and tend to break or wear out.
Hello there, Ill translate the note in the book for you. Dear Claude Alain We had a super holliday on the Kamal (? Hard to read the handwrighting) and in your presense. When you will have left Tahiti, open this book and go trough the riches of the Polynesiean under water world and you will be back in no time. Many thanks and best wishes for your trip around the world. Ps I just bought the same boat you guys did. Love her to pieces.
Thanks for the translation (the “kamal” is probably “Kamoe” It was the boats name when we bought it) Oh thats great, congrats on your Beneteaue, wish you safe nm ahead! We will keep in touch.
Hi there. I just subscribed! You guys seem nice. That is not my favorite layout with the Pullman, but the two heads are nice as is the Captain’s Berth. Carry on!🎉❤
Well yeah, my V berth is always full so I can have my quarter berth free! Or it is loaded so the V berth is accessible. It’s a constant battle for space! Very excited to see you out sailing soon. 🎉
Thanks you. It took us a bit longer than planned cause we could only go during off days from work but we also had to wait for the NE monsoon to take us downwind to Maldives so around 4-5 months. The cost was pretty much the same as what we paid for the boat 35K.
New subscriber. Where are you both from in South Africa. I lived in a little town called Heidelberg near Joburg. I wish you nothing but success. Go well and godspeed.
True, thats a very important aspect. I can tell you Its more than what we paid for the boat. It was within our budget, we will make a very detailed video soon including all the costs involved. 😊
Thank you guys, We found the boat before it reached an advert! Although we have spent pretty much the same price they go for in Europe 😂 It was all within our budget though.

Thanks for following our Journey! 😊 I wish you could have told us earlier, already made the mistake of trying to buy budget 😂 Lesson learned!
Ag, lekker, man! Good to see you two so full of energy and I wish you well. But, hey, South Africans don't BBQ!! 🙂
Hey Ray, hahahaha 😂 Youre absolutely right!! Next time its called braai!
Great videos
Glad you like them! Thanks 🙏🏻

Hi Gary, thanks so much! Yes the Pullmans is not the best, but at the moment its more of a storage garage than a berth 😂 Thanks for the sub 🙏🏻
Well yeah, my V berth is always full so I can have my quarter berth free! Or it is loaded so the V berth is accessible. It’s a constant battle for space! Very excited to see you out sailing soon. 🎉
Cobgrats guys🎉 How much did you spend on repairs and how long did it take?
Thanks you. It took us a bit longer than planned cause we could only go during off days from work but we also had to wait for the NE monsoon to take us downwind to Maldives so around 4-5 months. The cost was pretty much the same as what we paid for the boat 35K.
Could be the source of increased humidity to cause the mould to grow
I agree, langkawi is also very hot and humid.

Hi Rodney, we know Heidelberg very well! Lekker plek. I (George) was born in Springs so not far from your town. 😂 Savannah was born in Vryheid.
Mould is not so bad. Clean the area and wipe the area with clove oil will kill the mould

Congratulations, now U need a Kitty (female is the best) take care of bugs and critters 😊
Thank you! Yes we need one 😂
would be very interested in knowing how much it cost u to do your upgrades, as i am sure everyone else is as well
True, thats a very important aspect. I can tell you Its more than what we paid for the boat. It was within our budget, we will make a very detailed video soon including all the costs involved. 😊
another fin keel surfboard with a cabin attached and a stick good luck
We might need that luck! Thank you 😂
I have sailed those boats , great coastal cruiser , but don't fool yourself , that is not a "Blue Water" boat , fair winds .
Thanks, our plan for now is to cruise in Maldives.
how tall are you, and what is the headroom? i see you are ducking a lot while walking in the boat
Im only 1.86m, so I can stand comfortably inside the Saloon but Ive bumped my head so much everywhere else it became a habit to just duck! 😂
Good luck with the boat? Are you 2 from South Africa originally?
Hi, yes we are! 😂 Did our accent give it away? We have been living abroad in Maldives over 4 years.
@@SailingNakaiy yes it did after about 2 sentences;) It's the Rrrrrrrr

The wood strips are so mold, will not grow as much under your mattress
Subscribers went down to 670 after I rolled it over to the 700 what’s going on?

Baie dankie 😊
Congratulations! The cheapest Beneteau Oceanis 40 CC Clipper in Europe is around $85.000, you guys are real pirates as you stole this boat 🙂
You are crazy that’s not how much they are worth. It’s an amazing boat though congratulations 🎉.
Thank you guys, We found the boat before it reached an advert! Although we have spent pretty much the same price they go for in Europe 😂 It was all within our budget though.
hahahhahaaaaaaaaaaaa oh dear god forbid you ever have to run out on the deck. I mean why would anyone want to go there ahhahaaaaaaaaaa
You payed to much!
$10,000 is all it is worth
