Love videos like this well not your yacht breaking but your day life !! Great video ! Thanks for sharing !!!!
Best video thus far :-)
part 2 of the BERING?
And….. and on top of all that….. pulls off vertically striped pants.
I recommend a company called lastdrop, i have them on my yacht for my 85mm shafts and they work great assuming they are installed correctly. (i first did not). It doesnt have the bellow, it has a stainless steel ring on graphite that is pushed with springs. The hose fittings are on a solid cnc'd graphite block and are metal unlike this unit. Also, can a metal fitting be safely attached to the current system you have? I am also curious why the vessel needed to come out of the water. Could you have had parts handy for a wet quick fix ;)
Rico's patience when dealing with frustrating situations is admirable. You guys are fun.
Rico, is infinitely patient.
It's videos like this that really set this channel apart from any others. I love that you show how you two are, for lack of a better term, "Real People" and not just fabricated personalities for the sake of view counts.
Thank you so much! I truly believe that staying real and authentic no matter how successful you are in life is the only way to be truly happy with yourself
@@NautiStyles I kept thinking "surely they're both divas once the camera turns off." But now that I've seen Rico bend himself into a pretzel in the engine room, and Victoria without her concealer, I like you both twice as much. I've learned that if you stop laughing at yourself, it won't be long before you stop loving yourself.
Seriously, when keeping it real goes right!!!
I really enjoyed this video. Just a suggestion, but maybe you could throw in some of the things us “land lovers” don’t experience about boat life? How do you refuel? What are some of the rules/customs in port or at sea? Just ideas. We know about not ringing the bell unless it is foggy. Lol. Love the channel!
👍👍👍👍👍
@Danny Allen: The correct term for you poor land locked inmates is.... Landlubber.
dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/landlubber
Red right returning....means keep red buoys to starboard (right) when returning to port:) There's your quickie 'rules of the road' lesson:)
Great idea! 💡
Yes!!!
You two invited us into your home. Not as casual guests, but as friends. We are pleased and honered to see you both 'up close and personal.' A great view. A fun view.
I understand hubby dude’s anger down there! You are down there on your knees, then getting up and down, it gets painful on the knees! Plus, it’s a job that once you start, you have to finish.
Knee pads. Help.
I just bought 1997 Carver CPMY 40 last February. Never owned a boat before. I live on it here in Santa Barbara. And have been dialing it in and learning every step of the way. I love living on my boat! Love your vids!
make some videos plz
Boating has it's up and downs, but I having been a boater, believe it is all worth it. You 2 really look as though you honestly get along. It's a natural look. I also like the fact that you don't need to pile on make up, Victoria, like my wife, you have a natural beauty. you 2 make a nice couple.Great video
I lived on a 42 Viking aft cabin in Maine back in the 90's. I have nothing bad to say about the experience. I did 100% of my own maintenance so cost were pretty well contained. It was a great lifestyle. The most common question I got was "What do you do in the winter?" The answer is....I turn the heat on.
Retired now and looking for a 40'ish trawler for part time liveaboard.
A kid in the fender candy store! Rico’s excitement is contagious.
"It's funny if you're not the one doing it." Every "significant other" ever...
😝😝😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Men and women are equal men and women are EQUAL!!!!! "Toilet's broken honey...I'd fix it but that's man's work"
What a lovely action Vic has pumping up those fenders, we’d love a nice slow-mo video of Vic pumping fenders!
I really liked your boat. Marco, a whole character! . And yes, it's the same as in a house, there is everything to do, apart from being a contortionist in a boat! 😂😂😂😂 Greetings to both of you and good winds, Captain V.
Thank you. I love watching others working on their boats, it makes me feel I'm not alone. Great video.
These types of videos are the best for people like us who have "pie in the sky" dreams about owning a live-aboard yacht. Reality
is required to have an honest view of the situation! Thanks!
Thanks guys for the Dog thingy answer.
And Victoria, it's always easy when someone else is doing the hard work! LOL.
I didn’t see the answer to this question.
Love, love, love this video! You guys are amazing, so helpful seeing the how-to's and what you prefer so that the rest of us don't waste time getting what we don't need.
I also really loved the Fendertex fenders, can't wait to get some of these for my boat!
You two did a great job making this video. Thank you for giving us a sneak peak into your life and life aboard.
Thanks for sharing day to day life. How about a video of y'all taking your boat out on a curse?
Mine is a 24 foot cabin cruiser and I feel your pain. Your opening comment about work and sweat definitely applies. But I won't change anything! Going over this afternoon to patch a divet in my transom!
OUTSTANDING AGAIN GUYS !! I totally love this video content. Fun, informative and just so entertaining. Thank you guys. Behind the scenes of your day to day lives are so much witty fun and knowledgeable. Thanks again for sharing guys.
Our pleasure! 😝😆 so glad you enjoyed it
The first episode that didn't need out takes -- I was laughing throughout the video!
My uncle had a 32 foot Silvertron, and 42 foot Hatteras back in the late 70s and 80s up to 2000. He was a licensed sea captain in Galveston TX. He stayed away from larger vessels. His motto was "the bigger the boat, the bigger the headache," lol
Thanks for showing the realism of Yatch life. So good you all can do a majority of the maintenance. Labor for marine maintenance is no walk in the park. Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
BP
Oh my!!! That bed removal segment was freaking hilarious! Great production! Really enjoy your videos.
You don't need to remind me every 6 Months :) It's a keeper! I will steal it! The new fenders rox! This was a very nice surprise video allowing us to have a little glimpse in to your daily life. Doing the repairs sucks but when it's finished you can put your feet up on the fly bridge with an ice cold beer! I can't wait for Bering Part II
Couldn't be a better place to have a beer .😎
I'm with you, can't wait for prt.ll. No patience for repair work, just pay Rico
I love the DIY aspect. I live full time in a travel trailer volunteering at State Parks around the country. I can appreciate what you have to do.
Being a mechanic who plans to live on a boat full time. I would enjoy more videos like this. Is that some of Ricos' dj skills during the video?
A long flexible wire with a magnet on the end is great from fishing those pesky screws and bolts/ nuts that love falling into the bottom of the boat or small places that fat fingers cannot get to. Great video. Thanks. Love you guys .
So, there goes the glamour of it all. LOL I wouldn't do the 'yacht life' without a crew. But, it sure is fun to watch you guys.
Then you add unnecessary cost
Rico and Victoria you two are my favorite couple. Rico, I could feel your frustration as screws and such dropped into hard to reach places. I was laughing alongside Victoria thinking that God it is not me. Fenders look terrific. I love your asymmetrical hair cut, wish more women wore that in Michigan.
😝😝😂😂😂🙌🏻 thank you sooo much, so glad you enjoyed!
Right!! Who hasn't been there, dropping screws in impossible places 😤😤
Victoria, Rico; I've viewed hundreds of vlogs over the past 30 months and without doubt that one was by far the most entertaining. Hope there's no payback from Nick & Tristan & David but you guys have produced a magic engrossing video, I wanted more, more, more. A query or two. You've mentioned several times in vlogs about your "must have" list in the next boat (other than bigger as slave Rico, asked when changing the pump to YOUR head). I think it's time to publish the list as it stands, so far. To save me browsing every video, how big is your current boat and what year? Just watched the 42ft Prestige on Aqualholic and it seemed ideal for you guys. And Rico.....you were the saviour when changing the mattresses.
Wonderful video. Thank you for using the softer honk sound for swear words and not the dreaded loud, jarring beeeep. You guys are very funny together and a wonderful example of a happy married couple as well as happy live aboard boaters. I also enjoy your accents and small english mistakes. Very endearing. Im hooked now. Thanks, guys
😝😂🙌🏻 thank you so much for watching! life is too short to take yourself too seriously 😆
The broken nipple is a common off the shelf part, and could have been replaced with a brass one. I'd have done it while in the water.
This is a wonderful video. Down to earth. You two are fun to watch. I do not own a boat, but I do own an RV and there will always be things to fix. Enjoy yourselves, it’s a great lifestyle.
Awesome! Thank you!
What a nice way to look at the reality of owning a boat, thanks for the fender Tex idea, also a good t- shirt idea for you guys “ YOU BOAT YOU LEARN” then have a picture with Rico cussing out some boat project he is working on.
That was a crazy good vid SQ1 & CM... Home port repairs are certainly less costly (understatement) than in the islands any island. People who think boat life is just fun and sun are out of their minds. It's a constant battle with the sea and Mother Nature. One of my greatest cost savings was to ceramic the hull and upper decks even my old fenders. It cut down on washdowns and general cleaning by about 80% year overall. It's just great to see the everyday of everyday living that we all experience no matter the size of one's MY. Oh and the great thing about ceramic coating is that your the shiniest MY in the marina or at anchor.... Have a great weekend!
Love that you both have a sense of humor when things go wrong. Just gotta roll with it. 😂😂
You guys are so great together! I love your channel. I also really like your boat and equipment reviews. Good job! 👍🏽❤️💪🏽
Thanks so much!
It's really nice seeing a day in the life of you two, on your own boat! You are very capable seamen, thanx for sharing!
Thanks for sharing these “behind the scenes”. I’m not living on my boat, and sometimes I’m glad about that. I recently had an issue with an exploding battery bank, shortly followed by a failure of the bow thruster, and then issues with the fresh water system. Fortunately everything is solved again, but I can confirm, there is always a list of things to do. The good, the boat, and the ugly 😜. Thanks, and enjoy your day 💙
Great channel. Really looking forward to Bering part 2!
yes! Us too! just 2 more days 😝
Great Video, Victoria and Rico! Who would have thought that fixing a toilet could have such entertainment value?😂
Loved that you added this video sprinkled in with the yacht tours ones. always great to see the realities and you still love the boating life.
I recently bought a 3d printer and I am learning a lot about the different things you can print for plumbing, electrical wire mounting brackets, and a ton of other things. It's like having a parts store with patients though. It's not a quick process to print things. But, if you have a issue in the middle of nowhere. You can print the item you need. Very cool. 🍺✌️
Lovely to see you both being yourselves and not reviewing a boat. Not that you are different. It's just nice to see you both at home.
Rico really does fit the definition of “Jack, of all Trades” as he gets it done no matter the job! The peanut gallery owed you a gourmet dinner after being a backseat mechanic when your nose was inches away from the stink. 😂
Brilliant, honest view from the front line. You both show one essential for living together on a boat, you work together, you share and have a sense of humour. It's one thing having a fault in a house but at least you wont sink. Loved the work when carried out with the boat on the sling. Keep it up, be safe and bring more of your life to us. Thanks, we all love you both.
I truly enjoyed the realities of full time living on a boat. Never done the boat thing, but i am looking forward to doing this. I think you guys are just great
I learned that its no different than owning a home with its minor repairs,pay someone and get it done properly, enjoy life ( NOW )
Love this - one of the best videos you've done; it's real!
Wow, thank you! 🙏 😊
What an awesome video. This made my day !!
Love your videos 🥰😍🙏💚🎁🎁 And great musical background at appropriate times…😍
Yay! Thank you!
Just a helpful hint. Use magnetic screwdriver; no droppy screws in bad places. Really enjoy how you guys show all aspects of boat life to this landlubber in Canada.
You guys make me so normal with regard to dealing with repairs. 😁
I enjoyed this as much if not more as your other videos… You guys are hilarious
I’m glad you have people that can actually help you without conflicts of interest
Son unos genios!, verdaderamente los quiero. Porqué? Porque justamente son muy desestructorados y divertidos. Los seguiré viendo. Saludos para uds. y especialmente a Marco, un dulce! Y gran actor.🥰🥰🥰🥰✌
wow, great looking fenders,
Fun video! A day in the life of... If you've never dealt with boats then you think you just get on and go. Thanks for the reality check! Have a good one!
Love seeing the two of you cruising around Marina Del Rey. I get up on a 38 foot Christ Craft Corinthian at what was then Agi Cal I probably spelled that wrong lol and worked on the Happy Man charter boat at 12 years old. Amazing memories. 😎👍🏼🤗
Hi Rico&Victoria! So happy u finally make some video on your boat. I love watching boat life, it makes me feel closer to u to watch your every day life, like I am a part of a crue. If u keep making those kind of videos u can ask people to become a patron.
That's boat life for you. Thousands of dollars in costs to replace a $2 part.
Just loved it! Even the Bad was good as someone else was doing it ;) It's winter here in Aus, so we're getting a Bayliner Ciera Cruiser we bought a few months ago serviced and ready for the new season when we'll be going up some Victorian coast (in Australia :). I'm not a Rico's stage, but would like to be with basic servicing...
Here's a few suggestions for the future: 1. What is Rico's Toolkit? 2. What is a typical re-stock for you if you go on a trip (1-2w) - interested to know about things we'd probably not think of... How about a vid of you and Rico out for a few days or so? I'm only relatively recent here, so maybe you've already done some of these?
Really like your channel and how you "lift the covers" on boat life so one day when we hopefully do it we'll have some nice tips to help us out.
Cheered me up no end,😄 glad i'm not the only one that drops screws everywere, and as for the 6 months you need time to plan these things😆😆 good to see the true side of yatch life, keep it going👍👍
You guys are too funny and thanks for the great hints on the pros and cons of living on the water.
I can't imagine how much maintenance costs would be without Ricos knowhow, and company contacts. To do most of the fitting yourself, must reduce a huge portion of the costs. Although still not a cheap lifestyle to live. I was a Deckside Seaman so have no clue about the Clanky Marine Engineer world. If I owned a yacht I'd be paying someone else. Then again as disabled, I still would even if I had knowhow. Rico is a walking encyclopedia of Clankyness. No wonder he likes nap time. Lol.
The rule of thumb is that if you don't do your own labor, you can expect to pay 3-4 times what a DIY maintenance job would be.
So, Rico said something about looking forward to a bigger boat, more room, easier to work on ... Is a new boat in the future?
Watching this video brought back many memories that my late wife and I experienced as boat owners. Most non-boaters really don’t realize that boat ownership involves a lot of work to enjoy the good times. I believe that I have done most of the repairs that Rico performed in this episode. Shaft seals in particular have to be addressed right away. I loved completing needed work and having a cold beer afterwards. Thanks for the memories.
You guys are so positive . My first bought I boat 6 years ago and thought this is fun and low cost what could go wrong . You discover how many items are built cheap but always so much aggravation !! I upgraded 3 years ago and all is great 😀praying 🙏
Why On Earth Isnt that Bilge Pump Hose Connector METAL??? al that For a one inch Platic Nipple Connection Crazy!!!! I also Being from Motorsport and motor industry Would be looking At a Better Connection Or A Braided Hose Like Aeroquip??
Great video. Did you replace the other shaft seal fitting while you were there? I would. I’d also put that part on a replacement schedule that would prevent most of the failures over time. Haulout is way more expensive than that plastic nipple. Just my 2cents.
Keep them coming ☀️👍. Thanks!
Hi from Australia 😀 A great refreshing video guys no scripting just raw emotions and speech 😀😂🤣. Great behind the scene look at boat life. Thanks for sharing. We live fulltime on the road and can relate to some of your issues 😀. Even the music in this video was great it really suited the vibe of the film.😀. Thanks for the midweek drop.
OMG almost 150k subs, nice!
This was very interesting. It is a good reality check for anyone romanticizing living on a boat. Just like a house, there’s always something to fix.
And unlike a house your floating home might sink if your not careful…
Loved this video...it's always nice to see all the aspects connected to yacht living. You guys did an amazing job. Keep them coming.
This is the most enjoyable, informative and honest video I have seen in a long time. Thanks so much.
Yes, I'm deep clean (galley not my body) so this is most welcome 😋
I loved the reality of this episode! Great content!
I really enjoy all of your videos. The chemistry between you two is awesome as well! Keep up the great work. 😎
Hi Victoria &Rico, great vidio of your boat, on boats and ships there are always repairs and improvements. The best thing after successful work is the ice cold beer after work. ⚓👍🛥🍻
Kudos to Rico! If I was ever filmed doing some of the projects around my house they would have to be a silent film! 😂. Quick question about the haul out, when they put slings under boat, are ther markings on boat or do they just center them on the hull. Not sure how heavy yours is, but probably could have serious damage if places in wrong locations and lifted out.
And I wonder what that cost to pull it out
That would be my hubby too! He hates plumbing anyway!! Hahaha!
The yard workers are trained to do haul outs, they know where to place the straps, damage rarely occurs, maybe a little rub off of the bottom paint, 30 years of boating and never heard of a boat dropped.
That is a pretty good question ,there is probly a max space between straps and distance from the bow and Stern
@@lorenenoe4472 yes they do know how to do there job and thats why they get the big bucks for that job.
The new fenders can be also be used as hot water bottles
Watching Rico work in the engine room makes me feel so much better about the hours I spent in my engine room except it wasn't Florida at 90° f. Sweat running over my eyes blinding me working in a sauna getting frustrated like recall what parts don't fit. So much fun would never want to miss it.
That was one of your best videos. I have to say though, I'm a Health and safety instructor here in the UK 🇬🇧. My heart was in my mouth watching Rico under a slung boat with no supports, like what the hell are you doing.
Seriously, great video, 👍
How much I like this woman 😳😳😳😳 She has incredible charm 😎😎😎
They make those in stainless steel , threaded ribbed hose connector.
I would use bronze instead. Bromze is anti-microbial, which is a real benefit when in salt water.
I LOVE this video. So authentic! I would have been swearing long before the poop pump. Also, the outtakes, "This had to come from Florida." is absolutely accurate. Thank you both for showing real boating. ⚓
Great video! I would enjoy to see more stuff like this 😁 Congratulations for the new fenders haha
an how much it would cost if you had to "call a guy" to fix toilet, sink, some electrical stuff? $300 for sink, $1500 for toilet, 200/h for electrical stuff?
I’ve always wanted to ask, I’m sure I’ve missed it, but where are you from originally? I lived in Germany for 13 years and I love listening to accents. Love your videos! My fave so far was w Tim Alls! What a yacht! Have I missed a Nordhavn 76? Thank you!
A Nordhavn would be a great addition to the channel.
It is fun watching you guys working together. Love your/our videos.
Great episode of yacht life 👏 changing the mattresses was quite funny 😄😆
*WHEN A MAN IS FIXING SOMETHING ...*
GIRLFRIEND: _"Do you need help with something?"_
ME: _"Nope! I'm perfectly capable of breaking shit and getting pissed off all on my own. But thanks."_
😝😂😂😂😂🙌🏻
My wife is a plumber's daughter, so when I'm wrenching something, she actually can help. Never got to, though (((((-!
I really enjoy your videos. You are both a delight to watch, Thankyou both.
great video, love the boat tours, but really enjoy seeing the day to day stuff involved in the lifestyle!
Loved this video! Thanks to you both for great content and a view into everyday boat life! Too funny even without the outtakes!
haha, our pleasure! Thank you for taking the time to write a comment
Fantastic video people. Nice to see you on you're own turf so to speak.
And to show the highs and lows of yachting.
Thanks for watching
My wife and I are planning retirement on a yacht, so this is informative. We are about five years away.
Do your research, figure 30% more than you think. Also figure you have to hire all maintenance out after you're 70.
Fisrt of all, I love your videos. We lived aboard our DeFever 47 Performance Cruiser for nine years. The beginning of our adventure began at Lighthouse Point in Florida. We hired a captain since I was unfamiliar with the ICW and the locks between Florida and Kemah, Texas. We dropped the wife off at Clearwater to visit friends. She did not want to cross the Gulf to Apalachicola. The captain and headed across. Approximately half way across, the captain came to the bridge and said "we have a problem." I opened the door to the main salon and it looked like a blizzard. I asked the captain if we were on fire. His reply was "I don't think so but you need get out the life raft." I pushed him aside and charged down the steps. It was steam . As it turned out a cast aluminum elbow that carried coolant . We made it to Saunders Yacht Service in Orange Beach, Alabama. Three months later we got our "home." When the elbow blew out, it burned out our engine. I went home. After talking to the insurance adjuster/surveyor, I finally received my claim check - $65000. That should put your fridge problem in perspective 😊
An idea for an info video. Show your watchers how to the mooring can at Catalina. Grabbing the bow wand and running the sand line to the stern. Great stuff guys 👍🏻👍🏻
