THANK YOU for letting me do what I love. I'm so lucky. Thank you.
Ooohhh what would come out of a musical collaboration with Kevin Olusola!! Singing violin with a singing cello 😍
This song is transporting. Love it.
Well.... I have no problem figuring out storing a violin on the boat. But I just cannot figure out where you are planning to store the piano. Beautiful music none the less.
Maya, I am a 74yo man in a wheelchair with very restricted mobility but I am also a dedicated lover of the arts, esp music. I have been a professional photographer in my past esp in. Architecture. I liked to use music as accompaniment for certain works , mainly classical but I was planning for some bigger projects in Sydney but then my health went kaput. Nevermind, the images remain in my ìmagination and I still have some of, but not enough,of your beautiful compositions and accompaniments although this is your latest accompaniment for a while isn't it?
This is a beautiful composition. For some reason when you play it it reminds me of the feeling I have when my daughters come to visit me, which is only very occasionally. It evokes the happy feeling of seeing them, but knowing the visit will be brief.
A marine engineer, a master boat builder, a gifted videographer/violinist--all the ingredients for an exceptional episode. So informative, so inspiring, so well done!
My heart warms with the way aladino looks at your dad. What a fantastic father-in-law bonding experience
Two artistic souls (one for art, one for craftsmanship) and an engineer - what could possibly go wrong? It is amazing how short a 25-minute-video you had been looking forward to the entire week can feel ...
Thank you so much for the lovely comment Matthias, I'm so happy you were looking forward to this video!
Absolutely gorgeous wood work! Very nice varnish job, Maya. I showed your work to my wife, and her comment was that you both have that gift that transforms. Maya, your background music collaboration was stunning! Just a beautiful episode!
You could say that Brian is the artist of engineering!
Very exciting to see your lovely ship coming together! She'll look after you well for sure!
Browsing the comments, I see that many of us fans were moved as much as I was. Maya’s exquisitely soulful performance, Aladino’s masterful “cuddly” perfection, all coupled with the joyful, hyper competent, and loving addition of your father made me bawl several times. Thank you for what you do. I will be joining Patrion today. I love you guys. Chris from Pakistan.
Way back in the 1980's I was a yacht broker in Seattle. I once had a client that was one of the lead violinists in the Seattle Philharmonic Orchestra. He was looking for a boat to live on and would come with his violin, which he would play on each boat he looked at. I asked him what he was doing this for and he told me he needed to have a boat that sounded good when he played. This was a different decision path than I was used to but we eventually did find the right boat for him, a Hans Christian 33. Anyway, watching you play that beautiful piece reminded me of my old client. Thank you!
The duet was absolutely beautiful. Please do more of your music. Your dad is so nice sand talented. I can tell Aladino loves doing wooden joinery tasks. The beams look great.
Always love it when Maya shines, music and videography are really great. Dino's craftmanship sustains us thru Mayas lulls.
Just sitting here with tears crashing down my cheeks at an alarming rate. How incredible you all are?! what magic humans can make?! 😍😭
I don’t think a lot of people realise how long it takes or how hard it is to master the violin 🎻 absolutely beautiful 🙏
The first 30 years are the hard part...
As the credits roll, Midnight Moon plays. This new romantic saga hits the big screen. Academy award for best movie score gos to……… loved that sound Maya . So happy to see the hard work and pride in workmanship nearing the end. Can’t wait for the christening.
Every good projects needs a Brian, what a great source of inspiration he must be.
Brian or Brain
Beautiful music, expressive, sensitive and an unexpected pleasure for the soul, thank you.
I do woodwork but I fear not with the skill shown here. We are fortunate that you post videos with such content. A big thank you, again. Phi, Suffolk, U.K. 🇬🇧
The musical collaboration was very beautiful and slightly melancholy!
A violin or a guitar on a boat is easy enough to carry. Earlier I saw a video of a woman that has an upright piano on her boat, a Freedom 40 or 44. She cut a hole in the deck and installed a lift so it can be stored below deck!
And finally the combined knowledge and craftsmanship of Aladino and Bryan (or Brian?) is unmatched!
Maya you played that piece with such feeling. Also your dad is a great guy and that was really nice of him to help you out.
Your father is absolutely amazing! Enjoy him and his good health while you can. The times you are able to spend with him pass much too quickly, to which I can attest.
and to keep one's health keep a million miles from " safe & effective " !! Can't provide more on this dictatorship platform
and to keep one's health keep a million miles from safe and not effective
Thank you for recognizing this important lesson . I lost my Dad when he was 51 but am holding on to Mom 50 years later and regret the minutes I missed with each of them.
Words fail me. You two are just amazing - what sensational work. But more importantly, what a great
relationship you have. I look forward to your wonderful adventures sailing together.
There are so many good things about this video, your duet was AWESOME!, Aladino's artistic work on the Teak! And your Dad, what an awesome Dad and Blessing! So with all that said, loved the video, love your story telling and your music melts my heart! God Bless you all !!!!
This is the third time I listened to your duet. Simply excellent. The woodwork, the music, the inspiration. Thank you Maya and Aladino!
Maya really enjoyed the collaboration! I still remember a jam session. You did one night on a sailing trip with a guy playing guitar. That was fantastic. It made me cry
Your dad is a great guy for helping you so often. What an example.
Beautiful music. Thank you. Mums/Dads can never get enough of hugs, kisses and love yous.♥
Loved Maya's musical staging and performance. Touches the heart. Bravo.
Thank you so, so much
Midnight Moon is going into heavy rotation. Absolutely beautiful!!!!
Midnight Moon is prachtig!!! Nog nooit heb ik een viool zo horen praten, zingen, fluisteren en een piano zo zacht horen kruipen, dempen, en kietelen. ❤
This is my idea of a perfect relationship.
Two people working together on their dream. God bless!
The sonata was breath taking, the two tone overhead beams an inspiration.
Really enjoyed the music collaboration! I also love seeing the interactions between father, daughter and son-in-law. Such a great team. Thanks for sharing.
As much as you enjoy your fathers help, he wnjoys helping you more.
Not used, but useful as a father is a wonderful feeling.
Maya, that for me was the most beautiful music I have ever heard you play. Mesmeric, beautiful and a little haunting at times. Love it, thank you 💕
I loved Midnight Moon. Well done. That song has a great vibe. Thank you Maya. Your both so talented. I've followed you for several years and have become hooked on you two. The boat is coming together so well you both should be so proud. I can't wait for her first sail.
That song was so beautiful that it brought tears to my eyes. Your music and Dinos attention to detail is so amazing. Your boat will be as beautiful as your music.
Maya your music was such an emotional inspiration, thank you for sharing it with us.
When things are tight HEAT is your friend.
Dear Maya, as a young person, the violin played a big part in my life, so hearing your music brings me back to some of the warmest memories of younger days. I love your melodic improvs and your warm melodies bring tears to my eyes Thank you so much for bringing music to the project and these old ears of mine. Love, Roy
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! FOR GIVING US A PEEK INTO YOUR SOULFUL PLEASURE THAT BRINGS LIFE BACK INTO YOU!
When I first started watching I loved the passion both of you had! The wood working drew me in but your music hooked me for life! I will watch you guys wherever this beautiful boat takes you!!! Thank you both!
Beautiful… artistry in music and in boat building. What a combination. Thank you.
What a beautiful and uplifting episode. Loved the violin and especially your Dad's comment on his height reduction. Your channel is so positive and so happy to see the project reaching the finish line. ❤
Midnight moon was so emotional & brought a tear to my eye. Please more music. You are both so talented.
I Bow to each of you.
Maya, I love the way you wove these artistic and handcraft talents together. Your talents are not being kept under a bushel, as they would say, and I’m enjoying all the many aspects you bring forth.
Sitting here listening to you play, tears on my face, thinking there ought to be a word or two to offer. None come forth. So I will let this moment, this music, bless me. Thank you.
nicely put, and exactly how I felt while listening
Dear old dad, an amazing engineer, figured out the mechanics of this coupling, and created a solution. His contribution must be appreciated and recognized!
Its great to see simple, well thought out engineering. The plate that carries the driveshaft is all that. Great work.
Beautiful soulful song. So glad to feel the magic of Magic Carpet 2 coming to life.
Maya, for all us old folks that don't tiktok or spotify.....please always incorporate a little of your beautiful music in the videos
Boy o boy o boy, that duet was beautiful! So great to see a dad involved in a "family adventure rated" video.
Really felt your heart n soul with the violin. Great composition with Dino and your pianist. 👏👏
your dad is a legend. the amount of talent you and yours put on the screen weekly is startling.
This song gave me the feeling that all our Souls were Sailing together. Thank you.
That performance was incredible and I cannot believe how you made the violin almost sound like a woodwind instrument, extremely moving piece.
Sitting in a packed stuffy university libray in the rainy city of Edinburgh, with a view of cherry blossoms grey skies and dirty sandstone. Its a magical city, but today I was working on my Masters degree thesis, deadline at the end of the day, all that was left was polish and spit. I was listening to spotify shuffling through my favourites. Your new piece, Midnight Moon, came on unannounced it was a breath of fresh air, a reminder that the day is almost over. Hard work behind me, and finishing touches left. Thank you. You made the home straight feel like a saunter in the park. Soul nourishing.
Nothing better than working with one's father on a project. Gives you a whole new appreciation for the work they did as they were raising you. I had the privilege of working with my dad in the same job he had done for almost 30 years. It was an eye opener.
I Love how you took the time to light your surroundings before you recorded your song. Along with the lighting and music your music reaches inside your chest and calms the soul!
So love hearing Maya's music!! The boat is looking amazing too
At 75 and also shrinking, I can sympathize with Brian. What an amazing job you’re all doing. Can’t wait until the new journeys...
I fell in love with SMC when you were in Europe cruising the canals. A large part of that was the musical interludes. It is great to hear more music being intertwined into your videos. Some really beautiful balance and harmony with the violin and the router, really. Very, very nice video. The boat is really coming along. We used to say during large engineering projects, 90% done, 90% to go, but there is now light at the end of the tunnel.
You guys have put so much time and energy into this boat it has to be your forever boat. How could you ever sell it. Beautiful job!
Like so many others, I love to listen to you play your violin. My daughter-in-law is a Professional violinist/violist that has traveled the world. So, now I get to listen to two pros!
That tune played was magnificent, midnight moon was truly amazing.
Couldn't think of a better way to let varnish dry than music by Maya and Julio! Also you are great family. Bests.
The theme this week is all about collaboration.. music and motor. We are all lost without friends and family who lift us up. I had lyrics running through my head this entire episode - “And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” The two of you spread so much goodness in this world with your creativity and build of beauty. Thank you.
I absolutely love this. Thank you.
My first introduction to your journey was watching your refit of your little wooden boat on UA-cam several years ago. I enjoy having your music on my playlist in the studio.
I had to pause the video after your song to tell you while the emotion is fresh… it was absolutely soul deep gorgeous. I don’t know what it is about your playing, Maya, but it always moves me to tears, in the very best way. Maybe it’s something about being able to watch you play (and in such a wonderful and unique setting), not just listen to music from some disembodied person. Anyway, thank you and your new pianist friend for the beautiful music and for touching my heart. ❤️❤️
I had to pause the video to comment. What a most excellent song! Hauntingly beautiful, wonderfully bluesy! Thank you for sharing!
Your music is incredible. It deserves to be heard by millions.
Maya, once again, a lovely episode.
I really love that you play/record the most beautiful music in/on/at the boat. It will live forever in that space. And I hope you and Aladino will be very happy there.
And I enjoy seeing Aladino and Brian's mutual respect every time.
Your musical collaboration was so beautiful and haunting! I absolutely loved watching and listening. And of course the boat is looking good too!
Wow....such a lovely piano-violin duet!
well done Magic Carpet
Your playing was absolutely amazing, brought tears to an old blokes eyes.❤
Wow, the level of talent, dedication and artistry that you two bring to every project is inspiring on a whole other level. Evoking the essence of great art! It makes me think of a quote I read recently in Rick Rubin’s book, something to the effect of “simply doing great work, a ripple effect occurs. It inspires others to do their best work. Greatness begets greatness. It’s infectious” - The Creative Act, A Way of Being
So wonderful to have your father work a project with you, I would give anything to have time again.
I can see you're touching the best in you in your music. Keep that alive in you.. It's so very precious and needed to show the world.
What a great video. Having your father, father in law there was so special. He is a wonderful man, and can see in his eyes he loves you both and truly enjoys helping and being involved. Even though you owe him a porch cleaning. LOL The varnish looks great also. Am so glad to hear that you might have extra time in the shed. I will pray it lasts. Much love from Switzerland. And also the music was totally awesome. Do More please.
It is nice to see your father coming from time to time to help out. I know that if I was in his shoes, I would do the same. Cheers, Richard
Oh yeah,dad is great,so lucky to have him and his experience to draw on. Dad rocks
Sweet to see your dad and your husband working so well together. Girl, you’ve got super guys in your life ❤
What a beautiful treat to listen to a lovely piece of music.Talent certainly runs in the family ❤
Maya wow, that song is so evocative and emotional. Beautiful creation, expressively performed...
What a lovely episode. So love watching your journey. You are both so incredibly talented in your fields. Your song was exhilirating - I absolutely loved it. Love when Brian makes an appearance xx
Three of my most favorite things: music, woodworking, and family.
The old boat is looking fantastic I dont know many people who would spot any mistakes Aladino may make he does such a great job great to watch. Loved the music as well thanks.
Exceptionally beautiful music, Maya. Magic Carpet is looking highly perfected. Your Dad is great. Supreme Blessings
The balance between narrating, boat building and playing music was exceptionally good this episode!
BCF yeah dad, spent 35 yrs there 2/O now retired and a boat nut, MC2 looking great!
I love the joy in your voice!
The musical compostion sent me on a magic carpet ride , the shaft work was excellent another great video Thanks !
What a beautiful soulful song. I love you two. Can’t wait to see the two of you set sail
Love how you all work as a team, focusing on your own technical specialties. So fortunate to have a father / in-law with a wealth of knowledge to complement your own. Curious why you are utilizing plastic washers vs rubber or nylon insulators where aluminum and stainless pose noise transference challenges. I’ve always seen a rubber washer used and didn’t think to use plastic. It’s all coming together beautifully.
thin cork and plastic
The plastic is used not for noise cancellation but to prevent electrolysis between the stainless cast iron and aluminium (SA spelling) occurring otherwise a special insulating grease must be used for which regular applications will have to be done. The bulkhead is a thrust bulkhead so a solid material like polycarb plastic is needed so that there is no compression in the connection
A lovely episode. So nice to see your father again and, especially to have the wonderful musical interlude.
Brian is a star, everyone should have a Dad like him👍
Your duet was the highlight of this episode.
Nothing makes the work week fade away better than master craftsmen and women at work. Loved the collab. Thanks!
Hi guys, it’s just so wonderful when Brian/dad turns up, he adds that little bit more to the videos. Brian is such a wonderful man and father. Keep up the good work. Love and appreciate you all Cliff from Australia.
The cabinetry and interior brightwork is just beautiful. Great engineering work on the drive shaft coupling, having your father to help you is wonderful and the music was so relaxing, thanks! Keep it up!
Thank you for not only the beautiful music but the transformation of your boat.
Maya, your playing today was wonderful!! You truly have an artful soul for music and Aladino for shipwright.
This combination of boat building clips and such great music is captivating
God. The boat interior is EXQUISITE. Really.
What a beautiful violin song! Mia, when I see & hear you play your music, I keep hearing the statement,” Stella got her groove back”… Fitting,,,, dont you think?❤❤❤❤
I've watched you two from the very start through every episode ! All i can say is WOW WOW WOW. Firstly what a wonderful couple you are and Dad aint bad either ! 😏 That violin/piano piece today totally sent me ! Dino (my name for you) your boat building/ renovating skills are exceptional to say the least ! I thought i had OCD but you are the master ! 😎😎😎 I wish you both massive success in completing this wonderful project and can't wait for launch date.
All the best
Mark (UK) ❤❤❤
