THE SATORI STORY
We are Nick and Kelly, two people with a spirit for adventure. Here we are documenting our journey as we travel the world with our dog Arthur aboard Satori (1989 Morgan 44 Center Cockpit Sailboat). This is a story of sailing and adventure, but its also about the beautiful souls we meet along the way. It’s a story of two people living their lives a little differently in order to gain a new perspective on our beautiful planet and the people in it. Our experiences have affected us in such a way, we are sharing them in the hopes that others will find the inspiration to do what they are passionate about. Follow your dreams!
She's a good boat and a good crew (including the pooch), who seem totally capable of the job. It's
certainly entertaining to watch and it's a free life style, which may well be the biggest plus. Enjoy
yourselves, while showing others what they're missing. Kudos!
Thanks for that tour you guys covered just about everything I could think of. I used to live aboard in the 70s and 80s on my 30 foot Erickson sloop hi boy with a delta Fin keel. I sailed it from San Francisco to the Big Island Hawaii in 1982. 23 days I only had one crew member that I hired out of a bar in Sausalito. ⛵️
Have hoped to get a view of the Morgan layout. Voila! Thanks so much for sharing your mighty fine home at sea. Loved it.
Beautiful boat and a great tour! I don't think I've seen a better organized boat with this many amenities. Literally, nothing is missing compared to what people are used to on land, with all the advantages of a boat included. The fact that you started from a fairly modest budget, speaks volumes of your resourcefulness captain! Your boat rivals million dollar yachts when it comes to all the creature comforts included. Great job!
Just discovered your channel and this is the first video I watched. Very informative and interesting for a landlocked oldster like me. THANKS!
Thank you for the tour. A beautiful boat & well set up. I am currently fitting out my boat (Roberts 45 s/v Two Dogs) and i have come away from your tour with several good ideas. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome! Glad we could share our ideas
Hi Nick and Kelly, Satori is a beautiful boat! We'll add this video to our "Boat Tours" playlist, where you'll join a large selection of boats from a small gaff rigged cutter, to a 80 ft liveaboard wooden beauty. Keep up the great work and fair winds! Chris, Rossella & baby Emma 🙂
Thanks guys... thats awesome!
Excellent video. We loved the boat tour. Your boat is beautiful and looks like you really have it set up to be functional!
I really like the PVC storage solutions, giving me a few ideas for my future boat...
Love it! Very nice! Looks like you got everything you need on board. I'm going to start my hunt for one..
Sweet setup you guys, thank you for sharing !!
Great boat, even the dog loves it. True live aboard. That back bedroom is nice.
Really well laid and thought out. Love all the mods and use of PVC . Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Carl!
Love it! I’m trying to figure out what boat I like for a partial live aboard and this Morgan is the best all around I’ve seen, especially the way you have it set up. Center cockpit is the way to go. I’m a marine surveyor but I stick to power boats because of my area. BTW if you blow an impeller I don’t think you have anywhere near 5-10min before serious damage could be done and even risk a fire if something flammable is touching the (normally water cooled) exhaust.
Nice boat! I worked for Morgan Yacht from 1972 - 1979. I was a decking crew chief on the Out Island 51.
Very Cool! Thanks Dave!
Neat gettin to look back over past vids again after seeing where you’ve gotten to. Really neat! You guys are definitely one of my fav sailing channels. Thanks! I’ll be a patron as soon as I get an account.
Thanks so much!! ❤️
King Arthur was so kind to let his humans show us his sailing vessel! Great tour!
You know it!
Wow, Very nice boat - thank you for sharing the details behind the cusions!
This was an excellent tour of a well laid out vessel.....thank you both!!
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the tour. Great job. I'v been watching all your videos from north Tampa and enjoy them all.Great taste in coffee.
You have a really fine boat, cleverly organized and a well thought out storage. Enjoyed the tour. Cheers.
Thanks Ramon, we appreciate that!
Though all boats seem to be a compromise in one area or another, I can’t imagine one thing I’d change on yours. Stunning, and well organized. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Maybe we’ll cross trails some day in the Keys! Love and respect, “Pirate Roy”......Rrrrrrrr!
I don't know alot about sail boats but , when I was in Bimini doing some scuba diving there was a Morgan at the dock that was from Wilmington Delaware. I really thought it was a nice boat it had beautiful lines and I never forgot that boat. That was back in 1980. You guys have a beautiful boat.. Safe travels. ☺☺☺
Nice S/V, thank you for the tour!
She’s a very nice boat and looks very comfortable , thanks for the comprehensive tour🤙
cheers from SV Breezy 🌬⛵️🌏🇦🇺
Very nice walk-thru of boat. Thanks so much for taking the time to video.
Thank you so much for watching!
You have a beautiful boat I love the wood accents all around 👍👍☮️
Great job! one of the best boat tours I have seen. I Have enjoyed your vids from the beginning!
I so luv your sailboat it's beautiful an Mr. Author is beyond adorbs. Thanks for the tips I so appreciate an enjoyed watching this video... I always wondered what below deck looked like. It's great nice touches! Fare winds,Following sea's! 🤘❤🌞⛵🌴🍷😊❗
Great tour,beautiful boat and seems well organized
Great tour of your boat, a center cockpit/ aft cabin is certainly the way to go !!!!
Great video and beautiful vessel. Happy sailing!
So enjoy your channel! Thank you for the tour. Your boat is my dream boat so thank you for the "intimate" tour.
That’s great, thanks Kory! I hope you get yours someday!
Very nice 44, thanks for the tour.
That Morgan is impressive. She is well maintained and well equipped for blue water travel. Side Note: Kelly is a keeper. She has definitely adapted to a boat and cruising lifestyle. Your engineering background is noticeable.
you guys have a nice looking very sound boat,i love your life style & i truly enjoyed your video.you two seem very happy together & please dont stop making magical moments together.my third wife & soulmate passed away from this world in august 2019, she took half my heart with her but we made good memories.thank you for the tour of your home & fair seas & godspeed .
Thanks for the tour of your boat.
What a great cruising boat! Dolphin Sonar, funny. Always fun to hand a first time guest a winch handle & ask them to hold it. After guest asks “why can’t I just leave it in the winch pocket “...
Explain that that winch handle costs a lot of $ and if they were to fall overboard with it you would be sure to turn back to get it 🤣
LOL,That's fantastic... love it!
That was a highly enjoyable watch. I laughed out loud a couple of times and liked the d.i.y. mods involving the white plastic tubes all over the place. You are very different in the way you've inhabited your boat, not ostensibly 'boaty' people, but having an absolute blast just doing your own thing. I'm not a sailor even though I love watching boat content of all sorts.
Great Video very nice boat you both look like you are having fun and that is what life should be about.
You guys are great, Love what to did to your vessel and all the extra s you added .
Good job on the netting for the king. Keep up the adventure, and GOD bless.
Thanks so much!
Beautifully sorted boat and sooo clean , Top of the class, gold stars for you both.
Thanks Rob!
A great tour of your boat. Sweet!
Great Boat! You know every square inch of it too. I wish you smooth sailing and always happiness.
Thanks!
The very best boat tour I've ever seen thanks for the tour
Oh wow, thank you!
Great vid...n heaps of little tricks to boot....ty
Totally absorbing video! Just discovered you guys and will enjoy your posts in the future based on what I have just seen. Happy sailing….
Wow thanks! We appreciate it 😉
Beautiful boat, thanks for the tour.
Nice boat setup! Well thought out. You gave me some great ideas.
Thanks Bill... Let us know if you use any of them.
thanks for sharing. your video was one of the better ones for a comprehensive look aboard. i would love to hear what you especially like about this vessel and what is in need of improvement (like solar power)
I've been Eying this boat for some time. Looks solid. Good vid.
Hello Kelly and Nick,I somehow missed this before now,I don't know why????
Anyways,I've seen it now,and very pleased to have done so,answered heaps of questions I had,which is why you made it ,right👍😊
She's a terrific boat,way better than I imagined,and importantly,plenty of yard for the Good King to run around 👍
Thanks Wayne! Satori is a beauty right?! 😍
Thanks for the tour and sharing your home.
You’re welcome!
Nice boat! Clever solutions. Thanks for the tour! Enjoy following you from frozen Minnetonka.
Thanks! Stay warm Dan.
Looks like a very great Boat for living and cruisin' around the Globe! Great! ;)
Great boat tour and a well setup boat. Safe sailing and look forward to the next one.
Thanks! 😀
I now know more about sailboats than i ever new, very educational, excellent video, the tank sizes and location it wasn't clear to me what liquid was where and how much, i guess that's what google is for, but you guys planted that seed. much luck to both of you.
Great boat. Excellent tour. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Johnny!
One of the better boat tours we have seen online..
Great boat tour. You've done a good job organizing your things aboard.
Thank you ☺️
thanks for sharing really loved Satori
Great video guys! Fun to see how you've adapted. Take care.
Thanks!
Awesome tour guys, you've gone a great job on Satori!
Thanks Dan! You know it's a constant battle... thanks for noticing!
Seguiré viendo sus vídeos. gracias por compartir .
Love the King and the old Morgan, great boats.
Thanks for the tour,very nice .
Thank You!
I've never seen a cargo net above your head in the bimini, and the diy hose caddy, very creative. I love seeing how people setup their things whether it be a wood shop or a beautiful awesome Morgan sailboat! Your boat is really really nice! Congrats on working hard and becoming a boat owner. I've owned two boats. If you buy a solid, well designed, properly maintained boat and you buy it right and take care of it you will not lose money....well, you won't lose much money! In my experience, a boat is not a hole in the water that you pour money into. I'm guessing that in your case you'll have the same experience as me, you won't lose much money when you sell it. If the price of new boats keeps going up sharply, then well maintained, used modern sailboats might increase in value. I can almost hear the laughter now, but I did include the word "might"!! When I go to the marina near my house I look at the nicest sailboat and think to myself, if the world ever descends into anarchy, I'm going to come get you and sail away!
You are geared up with pretty much everything. Nicely done.
Thanks Bob!
Just found your channel. Nice boat tour. Dennis from St Paul, Minnesota
Morgan’s are such great boats. Made really well. The 44 is such a perfect couples cruiser
That's not the first time I've heard that... I agree that its a great cruiser, but since it's the only one we've cruised on, I have no comparison. You've inspired me to change the video title... thanks Rick!
I completely agree with your choice of whiskey. Kudos!
Great tour. Beautiful boat! Your (3) are awesome!
Thanks Terry!
We really like your boat. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks!
Ok the "Companion Rabbit" at 5:06 and Kelly's detailed explanation of the water maker at 8:58 had me LMFAO!!!! Best boat tour ever!!
Thanks Jesse! Glad we could brighten your day!
I watch too many sailing vlogs. But yours is the best!
Wow... what a compliment! Thanks Harry!
Excellent tour! Like your Bluetooth remote for the autopilot, and your temp warning for motor cooling!
Thanks Brian... both great additions!
Sweet Boat!! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks Mark!
This was a great video and a really nice boat well thought out
Thank You!
I like the old fashioned interior design of your boat. It must be very nice to live there!
Super classic
It's funny, I never was really attracted to Center Console sailboats before, but yours is really great! I love everything about it! For two people, it must be the equivalent of owning a mansion compared to just a home. I have always been of the school, the smaller the better. I have a 26' sailboat and looked mostly at how much I was saving on bottom paint, lines, equipment and storage. Seems like boats get exponentially more expensive once you get over 30 feet. Because I've had a real small boat that wasn't expensive and still tried to anchor out to save money, I was able to put the best into electronics and other gear. So I always felt I was a head of the game. Until I wanted to invite friends to go out with me and the space was limited. I may have to reconsider next time! Thanks for offering an inside look into the "Life Style of the Rich & Famous"!!
Well done guys!! Enjoyed the tour!! lol
Good choice of whiskey ;) I love that one. And great to see King Arthur's "castle" too and his servants. Thanks guys and best from HKG
It's humble, but so is the King!
Loved the boat tour mate. I noticed how much room Kelly has for all her clothes etc.....it seems your premonition in episode 1 came TRUE. It would have been interesting to see on the boat how much space you had for your clothes etc. Anyhow they say happy wife, happy life....lol !
You're right... it's like I can see the future!
The saloon is in Key west. the Salon is down below. Ha! Nice boat guys.
Wonderful look forward to seeing lots more
beautiful boat.. and beautiful wife! Thanks for the tour. Thinking about getting a Morgan CC also.
Was that a Belgian Moon I saw :) Good taste. 7:20 I've had a lifetime interest in sailing but never had the opportunity of being on a sailboat. You are my introduction. Thank you
Love your boat. On a boat you are lucky to have a place for condensers that is not in the open. Where they are is the best place. There are some nice points about your mast which I like. If you get in rough seas and get blown over, you will still have your mast and these newer boats will not have theirs. Also it reinforces the hull. You boat is a tank which is good. I saw a Breaking Wave educational course today. The force of Breaking Waves is incredible. You boat will take it when other new boats go down. So don't let people give you crap about your mast. It might save your life someday.
Great boat, charming couple.
Nice tour, love all the little modifications... I am jealous
Thanks Carlos!
Thanks guys, a lovely vlog, njoy! Not that you need me to tell you that!
I want one of these. I see people talking about catamarans, but I love being able to fill up with provisions and not having to worry about going in for supplies as much.
Great boat, great tour......Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
life of riley . great tour guys . that's the first boat if seen with an outdoor screen. top notch!
