"Listen here, princess!", Perfect!
I travel the world from my mountain cabin through the eyes of my children enhanced by their sense of wonder and adventure..
Dan is doing a great job of inspriing us all!
What a wonderful father you have been to raise such a son to be an intelligent man who would choose such a wonderful woman to travel through life with.
I must sheepishly admit that was us in Hamilton a couple weeks ago. First time I'd seen some of my friends since the start of covid; I sailed in and grabbed a guest slip, and everyone came aboard for my birthday and we busted out the electronic drum pad and travel guitars and kept everyone up till 2am regailing them with 90s alternative, haha. We were pretty good though! ^_^
Y'all make me happy just watching you. I wish I could go out and sail like y'all have done, but I wouldn't even know where to start, plus no partner in crime to tag along with the adventure. Y'all keep pumping out videos and I'll keep living vicariously through you.
In all my years watching Sailing Uma I think your best kept secret is where you get your music from that you edit in.
I've a feeling it takes hours and hours of listening and probably cataloging on small hard disks. But you must have a secret source of such beautiful mood creating music
😊😊.😊
Thanks. But it’s no secret. Often it’s linked in the video descriptions.
The cinematography in this episode is beautiful, love your videos.
Thanks again for another awsome video. So professional !
Every Thursday, I'm in awe with UMA. IT's so incredible what you've done, starting with a barely floating lump to this beautiful, high tech machine.
Aaah, being young again, I'd follow your path for sure. 😍
Great camerawork this week!
Not sure who does the video editing but it's like watching a short film. Really great job!! Love the sound of the rain on the sailboat!!
I was watching Great Circle's Outremer build and they mentioned that you folks were up in Norway. Majekre mentioned how envious she was of you, that comment led me to you two. Gotta say, really enjoying the Norway experience. I've been a long time subscriber of yours, just been a while is all... Nice to be back.
I was actually extremely impressed by the athleticism of both of you on that obstacle course. WELL DONE! What an incredible location. So beautiful. Love watching you guys experience life together. You're wonderful.
Nice video from my hometown😀😀 The little island with the obstaclecourse is called Line, and its a popular place for boaters 🙂🙂
Is it the same pronunciation as in English?
@@mikalbrown3227 no, the closest I can think of is "lean" plus we also pronounce the "e" at the end, so "Leane" , sorry, probably not very helpfull :-) Line is a normal girlsname in Norway :-)
@@trondbraadland813 Thank you for helping us to pronounce the name of the island. :')
@@trondbraadland813 I think to sound it out leanuh
I really like your new intro music very good choice guys, i guess it will change again in the future as well Thanks for what you do.
Your editing eye is superior, plus the music is always on point.
Fun episode and so beautifully shot and edited!! The north is always so beautiful in the summer!!!
Fun vid! I was thoroughly impressed at Kika's ability on the obstacle course. Then Dan, you totally rocked it up until.......you didn't. LOL
Love your cinematography. This is the first time I've watched you on the huge monitor in my office at work. Beautiful scenery! Thanks for sharing.
Hey! Thanks for bringing me along on your journey. I use to love to sail when I was young so I enjoy being with you.
I have finished binge watching your videos. They are all marvelous! Now I know what it is like waiting for your next one. Then I just go back and watch your Atlantic crossing. What an amazing accomplishment. You two are so brave. And I am a follower. Thank You!
Such stunning scenery. I enjoy this a lot. Reminds me of my trips where I take the good music like the Guns N Roses, Imagine Draongs or the Delta Parole and then enjoy the powerful feeling of the sea. ¡vamos!
wow you two are fit. That obstacle course was amazing
Loving it, battle of the outboards , Noisy gasoline, whispering lithium, Lovely Kika. As summer has officially ended I wish you a warm Autumn and fine dry sailing
I'll opt for KiKa trust everyday
next time Dan should row, and definitely go first on the obstacle corse, not to mention handle the dock lines while you manage the helm. That's what a gentlemen does!
The Netherlands and Norway are both members of the Schengen Area. They probably have visa for the whole Schengen Area, so there is no trouble with border controls or immigration offices. Getting a Schengen visa is very easy for a Canadian, it could be a bit difficult for a Haitian, but it is worth the bureaucratic effort.
Finally watched all steps. Startet about 2 month ago. Always enough steps left to continue watching your fantastic journey. Know I have to wait for new steps to come. That‘s weird. 😆 Discovered your Chanel first, while watching for videos for camper interiors. Thought would be interesting to watch how life on a sailboat would be, started with „The Modern Interior of our 50 yr old DREAM YACHT“. Know I‘m sailing with you....on my couch. Thanks!
You two certainly know how to have fun and it's contagious. Thanks for that!
You two make such a great team! Hope you got some sleep in the end.
The quality of your videos keeps getting better, great job...keep it up!!
Guys, love you’re vids, but I must say, when my wife and I decided to start sailing, one thing I insisted on was that she be as proficient as I. She did most if not all of the docking procedures regardless of winds. Please keep that in mind, many times we came into marinas with my back out and she was on her own. She did great!
No worries! They have the same mentality. Kika has proven herself to be very a very capable sailor. She docks well even though she has lost some confidence because the prop on the new motor turns the opposite direction and the motor is less responsive so the boat handles differently.
Thank u for these vid’s. I really like sailing and love to see your adventures. We were in between two “party” spots in Bora Bora a few years ago. It stopped just shy of 9 ‘o’ clock in the morning. Slept really bad that night. We should have taken the boat to another place....
What a cute little island to explore. The obstacle course was a great find. I hysterically laughed watching you both especially knowing I would look 10 times a fool. But I would make it.
Sailing off the anchor is always so impressive!
Those shots from the bow are simply amazing, thanks for improving the visuals.
so impressive! We have only done it once, and it was not by choice lol!
Just finished watching the whole series
The ‘ol sailor’s eye caught a glimpse of chafe on the Genoa’s UV cover on the left side of the tack. Probably rubbing on the foil when furling or reefed. Time to apply some sail tape before it starts to chew on the sail fabric underneath. Oh, and of course a fun video!
Well always someone to point out someone else's problems..Haha every boat has them. And it never ends lol
@@willshaw3561 But if you see it and don't mention it?
@@peterhendry2154 Ya good point what? WHAT HAPPENS.. As if they don't already know..Its their home.
@@peterhendry2154 That would be a non-sailor's move to keep it for You. Sailors shouldn't do that, I learnt about four or fife years old ... not even competitive regatta sailors should do that: things tend to become lifethreatening aboard on short notice, so tell what You see.
@@manfredschmalbach9023
Can't explain to landlubbers the value of being proactive.
Something tells me they caught it though...
The upper body strength on you Kika! I was very impressed.
One of my favorite countries to visit is Norway. I've been lucky enough to spend the equivalent of 3 or 4 months there over the years for work. Stavanger is a lovely place, and the Norwegians are a lovely people!
I used to do some gnarly adult ropes courses, but they didn't have the balance strap fortunately. The one with the cross ropes would always catapult me off into space. We were pretty high up and had to be belayed on line with a safety. Then there was a long zip line down a hill at the end. Fun times. Kiki lost time wise, but was more fun too watch. Dan tackled it mainly with his long legs. I like how he took the hanging ropes.
Loved the obstacles course. You two are the best. Safe travels a more love for you guys
I guess I'm very lucky. The sound of people laughing/partying & having a good time has never bothered me no matter how late they go. For some reason, these noises bring to mind a free spirit of youth that inspires me in my later years. Sláinte
Oh I would say that we were more entertained than bothered by it. 😅
@@SailingUma Thats the spirit... 😎
Norway seems quite beautiful, love the park with the obstacles. Great video!
Dan! Just looked at you lying down in the "couch" and thought you could come up with a system such as the "sofa bed" for that couch so two people could lie in there!
Hi, I'm following you since a while, and just to say you do perfect ! Also I'm waiting each time the new vid from your trip in Norway as I was living there for almost 10 years (as a french citizen) ..and I plan soon (more or less) to sail with my boat (actually south of France) back up north in this umbelievable landscape country. Stay tight both of you and keep on going !
Hope you managed to get some sleep. Always a shock to the system when you have been sailing and suddenly at land and loud parties going on. Never been up north but it looks beautiful.
The funny part is that this is the small visitors harbour . And as you probably found out there is a lot more going noise on in the main one .hahahaha.
and three mins away from where you were . directly behind you is a wonderful mooring spot .
I found a cheap kayak paddle that's like your dinghy oars. It wasn't worth keeping. I don't own a dinghy, but what I know is a good paddle is what you need paddling against a current, the wind, in surf. But I don't know if there's an upgrade for a dinghy, and you guys seem to be getting where you need. If I did have dinghy and wanted to upgrade it for better rowing, of course a seat, but also foot braces. It's foot braces where the force is transferred to the hull. (Sea kayaks don't seem to have figured this out, most use crappy pegs. I make plywood foot braces connecting them to the kayak with those pegs.) Just being a busy body.
Throughout this Covid lockdown, I tripped over your vids and many, many others but I always return to Uma. You guys make me proud to be Canadian - much love from Ottawa. Quite sure you'll have a future in photography or editing once you hang up the exploring the planet gig. Thanks again.
As an X white water kayaker i=senior instructor, I find a long stoke down the one side then turned out and hold it like a rudder you both move swiftly and state its called a J stroke each stri=oke at the end turns away from the dingy and holds position a little longer try it its fun and to turn your sweep the paddle in a long wide ark.
Your guys videos are so beautifully done. Always fun to watch.
Well summer lasts about one and a half month and scandinavians enjoy their summers. So I promise when you guys come back in January the docks will be calm and peacefull!😁 Thats what Alluring Arctic has discovered!
That moment when you realize you no longer wish to be the kids partying on Daddy's motorboat at 0130! Middle-age comes on like a thief in the night.
Here, in Central France, I've been to a few nights at the village hall. Those kids couldn't make it till dawn like the old folks here. Party and eat all night, Dessert is usually around midnight with two more courses to go and thick soup at first light so they don't bother with "going to bed". Big breakfast and carry on. Here's a warning for visitors to rural France.
The main meal is at lunchtime and they have two hours to eat and digest it before going back to work. When they get home after work they drink a Pastis or two with nibbles and nuts (apperos) then have a light meal, or take away, with wine and maybe a wee Whisky as a digestif..
If you are invited to apperos and all you had was a quick snack at lunch YOU ARE DOOMED!
I think these two have a long way to go before you can call them middle aged! While the kids were sleeping all day in their parents condos, these two were exploring a park and sailing their boat. They were just looking forward to a quiet night. That doesn’t make them middle-aged!
(Edited stupid autocorrect mistakes I did not see happen!!)
The best wedding I was ever invited to was of a couple where the bride and her family were French Canadian. They had a beautiful modest short ceremony followed by dinner, and then the entire wedding party camped outside and stayed up all night socializing and drinking beer and liquor out of a ice filled kiddie pool! Almost everyone under 30 couldn’t hang and tapped out around 3 AM and everyone older didn’t sleep and partied into the next day! I had such a lovely time with her Grandparents! So yeah, the youngins need to learn to keep up lol
I was 22 at the time. They were the most welcoming inclusive family I have ever been privledged to spend time with ❤️
and it keeps on getting better!
Thank you for the Mario sound effects, added a nice touch to the visuals! 🤣
Well done at the quay,after all your sailing across most of the world ,your still human when mooring up ,wind and current ,in tight places .take care .
Loving that confidence course. Another great video. Thanks !!!!
I truly appreciate your videos in the current times of 2020. They bring out a genuine and positive smile. Keep up the good work !
The moment you see the rain, and hope for a down pour. Teenagers running away, aww the quiet, just the rain coming down...
I'm so sorry that I missed out when you visited Stavanger, where I live. Have followed you from the beginning and it is always a pleasure to watch your videos. Have a great trip!
We idd the same in Norway and saw after visiting a museum our boat in the middle of a fjord, impossible to row back, we needed the lifeboat to get out boat back
Good job on the obstacle course. Beautiful area.
Started watching these videos when UMA was in the Caribbean, Got interested in the North Atlantic crossing in OCTOBER !!! Wondering why someone would take that chance. Just realized these guys are Canadian - we own the North Atlantic, 30 knot winds are a stiff breeze and 1inch of rain an hour is fog. My next boat I think I will go electric motor, and carry one of the new very compact gas generators as backup.
You two are an absolute inspiration. We wish we were building a bigger boat that we could do blue water crossing on but that’s not in the cards right now. Maybe the next one! 🥂
Lol... Dan @ 16:11 singin some Billie Eilish... “I’m a tough guy...” ... and later on talkin bout how sleep is gonna be tough tonight... love it, lol. You two are fantastic.
You guys should go check out old Stavanger. Its my home town so its really cool to see you guys visiting
I'd love to be exploring Norway right now....it looks amazing...
Excellent as usual. Thanks.
Another great one! Just have to say, in the summer months, if you are in a marina downtown any city in Norway, expect partying until at least 4 AM sometimes longer.
Geez, might as well have gone and joined the party, it sounded fun and they do know how to do it in Norway! Plus, Norwegian winter... you might go all night in the summer too!
I’ve been following you from France since a few weeks now, I LOVE your videos and adventures !
I really appreciate the quality of your images, the way you are filming and putting things together. It’s such a pleasure to watch your videos ...
I would LOVE to travel around the world !!! Unfortunately, my husband doesn’t appreciate adventures as I do. Just eating in a new restaurant is a huge adventure for him !!!! 🤣
So I travel with you and other travelers on boats, vans, buses ... 🥳
What do you feel is THE MOST difficult thing ?
Take care of yourselves !!
Big hugs from France
😊
I go travel with you Alexandra
Great "Get off my lawn!" energy there at the end, lol.
Such a great video!!! I loved the obstacle course! you all are so fun! Thank You!! :)
Wow you guys were good at that obstacle course and it was fun to watch :)
I find myself whistling in tune with the outro.. great video guys.
Its so nice to see what your doing and were it all starts , and now your channel is growing and growing.... you deserve it 👌🏻👍🏻💪🏻. Keep one doing what your doing 👌🏻👍🏻💪🏻
I never noticed how beautiful Uma’s lines are.
Whoaa nice to see u guys dock beside our office with the red paint on top of the building with the big RS on the wall. thats is one of our Redningsselskapet, "the Norwegian Society for Sea Rescue". on the other side of that building you will find one of our rescue boat name "Sjomann" same as the UK version of RNLI.
Kika is very smart and innovative as she did the course.
You guys did real good on that obstacle course !
The sound of rain on the bimini, one of my favourites mmmm
Lucky because you are going to be hearing a lot of it with the summer we just had!
Love your photographic eye ❤️❤️❤️
Wow x 2
The cold weather is arriving ... Here in Oslo we already can feel it but the beautiful things never end around here there and anywhere :)
Nice to see you guys again. God Bless.
super travail félicitations ! en France aussi c'est la fête aux mouillages et tout le monde chante à tue tête des tubes des années 80 😊
et ensuite tous le monde chante "Chevailliers de la Table Ronde"
Norway on a Friday night! 🤪 I was there for a few weeks in the 1970s and alcohol was extremely expensive, except on Friday nights - and everybody was partying! It looked to us as if all of Norway was drunk on Friday nights! I don't know how it is these days and if that price policy is still in force.
Love your channel, such a great mental escape from landlocked Minnesota. Cute couple. Need to mail you earplugs or headphones.
What about lake superior? Oklahoma now that's a landlocked state.
Even the Rain did not stop the partying! Hard core. Be Safe, Stay healthy.
thank you
I haven't even began to watch...just wanted to say I love you guys and your content.
I hate to say it but you two are showing your age. Go to step 2 and remember the send off you all had. Maybe that group is celebrating the voyage of a young couple leaving to travel the world and expressing their love and loss of them. Chill out and enjoy the ride. Love u both.
Stay Safe & Fair Winds !!
That looks fantastic, another great video. Thank you both very much.
A very fun video, We enjoyed it, and thank you for sharing. Safe Travels
Totally reminds me of Nova Scotia. And super-impressive effort on the obstacle course.
Hello from south central Thailand. Love your videos. :)
Finally all caught up on your videos! Love them!
Up, up, down, down. Left, right, left, right BA start.
Great Vid! Norway is Spectacular... even in the rain and “Teen Celebrations”...
If You All Come To The Puget Sound In Washington State, You'll Find Many Marine Parks Some With Obstacle Courses But All Beautiful & Offer Sailors With Many Land Adventures.
I love watching your videos, you guys do a great job, thanks!
You guys are in incredible shape.
Hey, I recognise that marina near the offshore museum :) We docked there after we crossed the North Sea in 2012.
I got the bow line says Kika . Oops , I forgot to tie it onto the boat . Yeah , I saw that :) The Norwegians were enjoying themselves , they don't care if it's pissing down rain :) Great video as usual :) Thanks
I think you are mistaken with the line :P it's tied on in the bow, she is just fast enough to run midships to jump. So the line you see is the end thats not supposed to be fastened, yet. :) You can see the cleet its on :) Have a great day :)
I love watching your videos
