We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream. So, we created "Odd Life Crafting", a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons.
The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn't have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat 700km away from our hometown that was neglected for over 22 years and we spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3). The last season has been a dream coming true… we are exploring the Brazilian coast with OUR BOAT that we called Odd.. But wait? What happened to the house? Check out our website to know more about it www.oddlifecra...
We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.

![How Much Does It Cost To BUY and REFIT a boat ?? [E28]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/V0PQTtXn0Dk/mqdefault.jpg)
Refit or new build= high viewing numbers. Go sailing viewer numbers plummet. You tube "sailing channels" answer: stop sailing build/refit another boat. Basically " Sailing channels" earn the maximun money as long as they never go sailing.
Hi, Richard. The math is not as straight forward as you think. To be honest if money was the main goal we would be making a looot more as engineers (we are both engineers). If you follow us long enough you will know that we always dreamed in building a boat from zero. To be precisely I been dreaming with that since 2012 when I didn't even know youtube sailing channel was a possibility. But to answer your comment: yes, at least in our channel we get more view when building things therefore we "makes" more money. What you are not taking in consideration is that our costs also grow exponentially. When we were cruising the Brazilian coast for example our monthly cost including everything was something like 300-400 USD a month in the Caribbean like 2k USD. Right now our cost are waayyy higher, just yesterday alone we payed 30% of the cost of the hull of the new boat and with this money we could probably travel for like 3 years. So money wise, starting over again in a different country it is a really really risky move and that involves so so so so much more work than you can even imagine. To be 100% honest our lives was so so much easier when cruising. Making less money but spending a looot less. So why do all that? To follow our dream, to take on a big challenge, to experience living in Europe for a while, to learn french, to learn so much about wood working, metal working and so on. And more than that to take the proper time to try to have a kid, something that we been trying to do for over 13 years without success. By the way Roberta is already 40yo, so it is now or never. Do we miss sailing? We 100% miss sailing. We miss going from island to island, meeting new friends everyday, sitting for ours doing nothing, living life. Do we miss recording daily to be honest not yet (we will probably soon). You are looking only by one side. The audience have more interest in watching building than vlogs, yes, in some cases it can be true, but have you thought that maybe we also prefer filming building videos then vlogs? Don't take me wrong, we love traveling to new places every week, but that is not the only reality when you make a living our of a sailing channel, there is so so so much more into it. Sometimes you just want to spend a month in an island doing nothing with friends and surfing, but then who want's to watch that? Or you need to keep finding ways to find drama where there is no drama otherwise people loose interest. In our opinion time passes in a different speed for who is in the other side of the screen. For some people it might seem like we just splashed the boat, but in reality when you live full time traveling in a boat and producing daily content it feels like 2 years is more like 10 years. For us doing the same thing forever is what transforms something exciting and challenging into something that you do on "auto pilot mode" and in the end you don't even know why you are doing it. And that is the whole reason why we wanted to have the "job" we have. A job that when ever you feel like you are on auto pilot mode you can just change, do something else for a while. A job that make it possible for us to take months to develop an amazing boat (in our opinion) and take the time to enjoy building most of it by ourselves, take the time to try to have a kid and miss sailing, so we can set sail again and hopefully introduce Indonesia and other places we have and haven't been before to a little kid. Remember that money is important so we can keep doing what we are doing, but it is not the main goal. Trust me, if that was the main goal we wouldn't be doing what we are doing and for sure we would have a lot more money and "safe" life right now. Wish you a great new year.
This is the BEST, most COMPLETE, and HONEST analysis of boat ownership EVER! Thanks for the journey Duca and Roberta! ❤⚓️🚣
❤️
The beautiful Roberta has become even more beautiful over the last 4 years. Duca is a very fortunate man. 🙏👍❤️
💕
You must remember that Odd was both your home and your travel.
It also put the biggest smiles on your faces and that is priceless! 😁
💕
Not too shabby !.....all the very best in your new adventure....take care
Bravo Odd Life, I have really enjoyed watching the journey , well done 👍⛵👍
☺️
A boat is a hole in the water into which one pours money. That you are able to make a living doing that is great. That you share it with us, with ever-increasing style and proficiency, is even better. After that skillful cliff hanger of an ending I eagerly await Ep. 305.
You are missing the fact that Patreon, PayPal and Sponsers paid for all of the items listed so apart from labour and cost of the boat everything was free,
@@dave2715 Not at all. I applaud their success in crowd funding their dream. That I get to watch it for free is icing on the cake.
Thank you for sharing all that information. I appreciate your bravery to share what many people could be judgmental about. My biggest takeaway is that you are happy with the choices and experiences you have had along the way. And now taking on more challenges for the next part of your lives. All my best for a happy and healthy future. Lastly, I love your energy and approach to life. Keep being you.

Best UA-cam DIY channel. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! 😊
You have certainly learned a lot and gained a lot from this project. The new owner got an absolute bargain.👍
Thank you for sharing the specific details! Awesome. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
My wife is from Paraty…it’s always a pleasure to see both of you. (She hates snow…but enjoys the freedom of this wonderful country….warm regards from 🇨🇦…..plus….Roberta is stunningly beautiful, respect that.
That’s nice. We love Paraty 🥰 I (Roberta) just like snow for a while, to enjoy the ski resorts 😁
That new boat looks soooooooooo nice! 😍🤩
Almost as nice as mine. 😎🤪
😁
Thanks for the up front. It will be fun watching you finish the new boat and go sailing with you new tiny crew.
☺️
Man, I really enjoyed this financial summery - expected from 2 engineers. I cannot wait for this next new chapter of your lives. You both are fantastic.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for giving us the pricing rundown. I have often been curious, but felt it might seem rude to ask. I wonder how your numbers would work out if you added in the cost of rent when you had to rent an apartment, and deducted the savings of not having to pay rent while you were aboard? Realistically, that probably would increase your hourly wages somewhat.
Great job, you two. Thanks for the journey - so far. Up here in the middle of Canada with the nearest oceans thousands of miles away, this old farm boy has had a great time following you.
We were living sometimes, like during covid, at my sister’s apartment in the same town as Odd paying just monthly expenses that was around US$450
Thank you. My point is, that living on Odd means you are not paying rent or a mortgage and Odd is your home. That is a financial benefit as well, and if brought into the equation would change the calculation of your hurly "wages" quite a bit and might make a difference in how you feel about it. @@OddLifeCrafting
The experience you both have learned along this build, is priceless. Can not wait for the next project.
🥰
Nice teaser for the new project! Looking forward to seeing that come together.
🥰 more about it in some hours from now 😁
To move from one project to another is not always fun but often gives us a sense of pride that we accomplished a goal and we can do the next one. This will be different as you now have experiences to build on and know what worked, what needed improvements and areas that just did not work out. I look forward to the news of what you are planning even with disappointment of it being dragged out.
lost a bit money but gain alot experience how to rebuild a boat....love u for a start video rebuild
Roberta & Duca, it may seem “odd” but I can tell you that I have watched, most likely, every episode of your wonderful adventure. It was part of my weekly enjoyment.
THANK YOU
I can tell you that you transmit trust and honesty. That is valuable.
Con mucho respeto y agradecimiento.
🥰
Well done!!! The experience and everything you learned is priceless! Thank you, for sharing!
Thank you for your transparency. This was so interesting. I’m really excited to see what comes next!
☺️
You guys should speak with a good accountant on allowability of deducting improvements to the boat- this could have a large effect on the capital gains tax you will pay. Do not know Brazilian law but arriving at the correct cost basis is critical in determining what figure is going to be taxed. Anyway, great summary, you did an awesome job rescuing that boat!
Yeah I was really surprised by that tax bill!
@@clarksonadI was surprised by any tax bill, although I wonder if it wasn’t ‘capital gains’ but a sales tax or VAT.
Their capital gain was small.
I think you paid a lot for the boat originally. The new owner got a brilliant deal, a carefully renovated boat, a new engine, new electronics, equipment galore, lots of videos on the work done.
As we said back them the prices of boats in Brazil is too high comparing to other countries as we were not allowed to import used boats
Thank you for sharing your lives.....godbless you both
💕
I feel another adventure is on its way.....be lucky
☺️
Thank you for taking us along on your journey... and now (drum roll) onto the next adventure!!!!!
Thanks for everything You have shared!!!!!!
☺️
Thanks for sharing these numbers.
GOOD LUCK in the future.
☺️
And Hey you forgot that you have provided thousands of people like me with a birds eye view of how to do a project like this the "right way" and displayed a love for the work and for each other that is simply priceless. And that is from one of your biggest fans. The "Big guy from Annapolis". 🙂
Very nice video. The last two videos were actually my first of you two that I have watched (although I have seen you guys on other channels' videos) and honestly LOVE your energy. I look forward to watching your progress.
💕 welcome to our channel
I can not even tell you how happy I am for the both of you. I look forward each week for your video. Now starts your new adventure and everyone can’t wait.
💕
I have fallowed you both since your tiny home episodes .and all thru the restoration of your sailboat .Some how i lost you for these last few months although i looked for you every day .today i found you again .I am so happy now you had become a part of my life and now you are back again .I am whole again .blessings on you both .
I was touched by your transparency, which in my books was not necessary. How much you paid and how much you sold Odd belongs to you. I enjoyed following you when you recommissioned Odd and j’ai hâte de vous suivre en France où j’espère que vous pourrez réaliser vos rêves. Ne lâchez pas, live the dream😎
Looks like a French Ikone. Good luck with the new build.
☺️
That looks like the “Affordable Boat” that was being designed by a guy I listened to on 59 degrees North podcast. Y’all seemed very excited when you visited the boatyard in Holland. 👍👍
Lot's of money and hard work, not to mention blood sweat and tears. But it you had bought a home with those fund's in the US, you would have been living in a two or three bedroom home with no land or no adventures. I love the new plan's of the new boat congratulations on your new adventure. Be safe stay healthy.
☺️⛵️💪🏻😁
I started watching after you had bought the boat and you had started to bring her back to life. I am about to start watching the videos that I missed, but what a great job you both did on Odd! You guys are hard working, educating (in that you explained what you were doing and why you were doing that), you had some fun and you took us to some amazing, beautiful places and told us about the history of these beautiful places.
I’m really excited to see how this new project will come together.
Thank you both so much!
😊 Welcome back. Enjoy the videos. We can't wait to start the new project to share it with everyone!
I am so looking forward to your next adventure thank you for taking us along
☺️
Very Cool. BEST WISHES! You two are amazing. Can hardly wait for the next Chapter.
🥰
Just can't get enough of Roberta's laugh! So friggin awesome.
oh what a relief ! I was sure they were going to the darkside and getting a catamaran. I'll stay subscribed !
It has been a fun six years. ❤❤
💕
Thank you both so much for your honesty 👍👍❤️❤️
💕
To me the one thing you mentioned but couldn't cost/price out was the intangible of a life experience. Not only did you learn new skills, you found out what you are capable of when you put your mind to it. In the end if you are satisfied with what you received for "Odd", it was a win and definitely worth it. The other thing, your expenses were spreed over 25 months, your selling price came to you over a few days.
You are missing the fact that Patreon, PayPal and Sponsers paid for all of the items listed so apart from labour and cost of the boat everything was free,
@@dave2715not accurate, you may want to rewatch the video or at least the end.
I did watch the end after your reccomendation. You can find how much they earn from simple searches it's around $120k per year $12 per 1000 views (that's just UA-cam), I also heard him say the boat was sold before they left Brazil! There are genuine channels who want to sail the world this is not one of them!@@jodymooney255
You guys rock, from the tiny house to rebuilding odd, to your new adventure.. been on scene from the beginning.. actually started because of the tiny house, and next thing I was doing is watching a boat revive.. thanks for the journey.. take care, and see you soon on the oddly built story!
Congratulations on your new boat!🎉 I can’t wait to watch you guys working on it. I really like the videos of you building or fixing something on the boat, it seems that you two have more passion when you do this kind of video than sailing. I hope it starts soon. Good luck! 🍀
Absolutely love all of your life experience, past, present and future. Good Luck with your France experience.
💕
My friends! This is awesome. Im looking forward to being crew 🙂lol. Great meeting you guys! #mattdv
Uau! O barco custou um milhão?!!! Só o dobro do que eu imaginava! Parabéns por terem conseguido essa proeza.
😁 barcos no Brasil são bastante caros por causa de impostos de produtos e equipamentos.
Kudos to you!! It's never easy laying bare financial information . . . especially in a forthright manner as you did. May your next adventure be as educational, life-affirming, and socially beneficial as Odd.
You are missing the fact that Patreon, PayPal and Sponsers paid for all of the items listed so apart from labour and cost of the boat everything was free,
Congratulations fun being married and good luck with the new boat wish you luck with your new house can't wait to go through the Journey with you
🥰
To make it breakeven and having a great time sounds great🎉 plus made the boat posdible❤
💕
Good explanation of everything concerned with Odd.
Have fun you guys!
😊
You guys are so good at managing the story and timeline. I am excited for your next chapter!
☺️
Watched every episode. Congratulations on an amazing result. Thank you
💕 thanks
Greetings from Mexico. I can't believe you don´t have millions of subscribers. I love your channel. We all love Odd and we are excited about your new project.
💕
Thank you for having shared the odd project. I have a sailboat in La Rochelle and live not so far, if I can help you or share a moment, it will be with pleasure.
Thanks for the offer. We are gonna do an open shop as soon as we start the building and I hope you can come ☺️
Tank you so much for the very useful information and your transparency, you rock ! Wish you the best with your new boat ! Et bon courage avec votre français ;)
Merci ☺️
PS just today I watched one of your videos from 6 years ago and it was neat to see both of you speaking Portuguese throughout the entire video.
😁 there are 19 of them ua-cam.com/play/PL4cGhq-GjyFnlMvyUI3YMj8mH2QL6K4n-.html&si=m3YkBZrt8WoAG486 here is the playlist
You made memories, that's priceless. Looking forward to your next lot of adventures. Take care guys.
🥰
Bonsoir Roberta. Bonsoir Duca. Lorsque l'on donne autant d'engagement sur un projet comme odd les chiffres ne veulent plus dire grand chose. Ce que je retiens c'est votre engagement total du début a la fin du projet et 2 belles années de navigation a bord de odd. Je suis impatient de voir la suite de l'aventure. Bonne continuation. Amitiés. Olivier.
☺️🤗
Hello I have been your subscriber since the beginning of the sailing yacht renovation
☺️
So many of these numbers seem a bit low considering. I have to think things are substantially less expensive in Brazil. Congratulations on a successful project whatever the cost. !!:)
You are probably talking about the ones that are for sure cheaper in Brazil, like welding. It's indeed cheaper than many other countries.
Parabéns Duca e Roberta.Ganharam muita experiência. Conheceram muitas pessoas legais.E ao meu ver venderam o ODD MUITO BEM.Vamos ver a próxima construção. Vai ficar uma beleza.Muito sucesso.Fico muito feliz por vocês Um grande abraço ⛵⚓⛵⚓🙌🙏💙💙
🥰
You both did a fantastic job! I was taken aback with what you paid for the boat though. It was basically scrap metal when you got it. I also understand why the next boat will NOT be built in Brazil. 100% taxes are outrageous!!! That encourages one to cheat on taxes. I imagine the economy in Brazil runs a lot on "under the table" transactions. That is the only way anyone can survive.
Aeeee, I'm happy to see all the development from when we met in Bali :)
Good times! Miss you already!
Great wrap up!!!
😊
Wow, it’s incredible how much your boat cost in Brazil. Seems like with your Italian citizenship you could have flown to Italy buy a boat! Congratulations on seeking your dreams- it’s been so much fun watching!
Then we would not be able to sail the Brazilian cost as the law doesn’t allowed Brazilian taxes payers in Brazil to go to Brazil with a foreigner boat
Thank you. You have shown just how expensive it is to do what you have been doing.
I look forward to your next chapter...dans ton aventure française!
Really enjoyed the video! 🙏❤🇺🇸🇧🇷⛵👣🤗⚘
Thanks for the feedback ☺️
The knowledge you gained is very worth all the time. Much better than McDonalds!!!
😁
Wow! You would double and triple the cost of different systems if done in the U.S. I was thinking a catamaran. I see monohull. I like the picture of it. What length are you planning? I am looking forward to the new boat project. Respect sent to you both. 👏⛵️
Thank you very much for your answer
Have enjoyed your journey ! ! Looking forward to what is next .
( My boat I did not own but got paid to crew on it. It did have some unusual features like two semi-automatic 5" deck guns, a missile launcher, anti-submarine rocket launcher, powered by twin 36,000 horsepower General Electric steam turbines. It's top speed was about 34 knots. )
take care, rh
learned a lot.... enjoyed the journey
☺️
I am looking forward to see the new boat and all the projects you will be doing.❤
💕
Also, Saw the Teser of the Boat at the very end of the Video. From Episode 305 and Above. WE GO ONWOARD and WE HAVE THE ODDS OF MAKING AN IMPOSSIBLE TASK POSIBLE🙏🙏👍👍
It’s been a great adventure following along “the refit” looking forward to the next!
☺️
Looking forward to more adventures following you!
☺️
At the end of the day you might not have made that much money off of ODD, but you made so many life long memories. I have enjoyed watching you guys since the beginning. And I'm looking forward to seeing your next adventure.
One of the most import things you both gained during this refit is your command of the English language. I remember the early days. WOW. 🎉
😁 indeed. Thanks for teaching it for us through the comments ☺️
As you are encounting things I must say that I always had an opinion that your boat costs around 200K US $..
And BTW, UuuuAaaaUuuu what a boat is going to be this new one.. Just to see her sketch makes me wanna see her imediately..
And now you are way closer to me here in Croatia..😉
As I have found with my own boat, it’s really a hole in the sea into which you pour money 😂 It was definitely worth doing it - we’ve had fun following all your ups and downs.
Was hoping for more videos of you sailing her in the future. Was really hoping this was going to be a sailing channel. Oh well
Nice and very interesting video as usually, thks for that. As a very old follower, I'm so happy to see, at least, the new boat : whaouuu, he is amazing ! You will win lot of space ! Design as a new board of windsurf, he will surf on the waves ! Congratulations ! It s time for you to give us new dreams ❤❤❤
Can't wait to see your new adventures.
🥰
Thank you for your honest final sum up, you provided me and others with hours of fun. I wish you fair winds with your next adventure. 👍😉
☺️
Great comprehensive review of the costs. All except how the UA-cam and ad revenue figured in. That is something that can be looked up, so is public information anyway. You both said this clip would tell what is next. Again, not. Keeping some people hanging like that is not fun. Congrats, best wishes for you both. Safe travels and can't wait to see your next chapter. 🎉
This video is supposed to be about how much was spent in the boat refit so people can have an idea of prices of refit in Brazil, our revenue is not relevant on the expenses in this case. When we recorded the video the idea was to talk about future plans, but than the video ended up to long and we would not be able to finish the video for this Sunday. So, we needed to compromise and divided the video into 2 videos, sorry for that.thanks for the best wishes
Love you both . Really hope your new boat will be your dream.
💕
Odd cost more than I was thinking. But I didn't expect it to sell for as much as it did either though. And It looks like I was wrong thinking your next boat was going to be a Cat. I can't wait to see more about the new boat.
I'm not an accountant but I'd imagine that you could deduct all the costs of rigging and other things that were installed on the boat from the captial gain (afterall they were costs in terms of improving the yacht) and reduce the capital gains tax bill. Also of course - the money saved on rent...
Will you ever go back and finish the shipcon home?
Edit: Found the blog post about the house. Sad you won't be finishing it, but life changes you, and old plans often get scrapped!
Have fun with the boats!
😁 Duca’s dad said he is gonna finish it soon ☺️
@@OddLifeCrafting Please do an update video when he is finished! Some of us need closure! :)
I have heard that the 2 best days you can have is the day you buy your boat and the day you sell your boat. Congratulations on your achievements thus far and future plans.
This doesn’t work for us as we are always said when we sell them 😔
Amo voces. Nao pude doar ainda mas logo vou virar patreon. Agora moramos mais perto :)
Wow, that is incredibly amazing. The details the work the blood sweat and tears you put into the boat was life changing to say the least. I believe you sold Odd for a very respectable price. Whether you could have made more or not isnt as important as you have stated... Odd gave you a job an adventure life changing Memory's for everyone involved. Especially all your new friends. Quite literally their are so many positive situations that come to mind it is mind blowing . Yes do tell us all about the our your next build Adventures and all the new sailing endeavors.... The suspense is killing me...
God Bless you both...
Legal ver a organização numérica, hehehe🤩 que dupla boa d+🤩
☺️
I am still curious about what happened to the container house and property that you were working on before you bought the boat?
Here us what happened www.oddlifecrafting.com/blog
Awesome, the design teaser at the end, looks like a cross, between Malin and Johan's 50 footer, and Paul and Sheryl's ~49 footer.
Is it going to be metal?
Best wishes all, from the far North.
