    Thomas & Gee this is sad news to hear. As "Bohlinsproject" said I do not know how you found the strength and courage to make this video and share it. Stay strong both of you and reach out to those who mean the most to you if you are having a dark day. As you said it is "See you later" if it is to be you and Gee will reconnect. Ultimately both of you must follow your hearts and what is best for each of you.
    Stay strong and take care Thomas & Gee. Fair winds to both of you!

    How on all vast oceans did you manage to make a video like this? I’m really, really impressed by both of you to be able to handle this separation. I’m definitely not sure I could have done it myself, and at a quality as this. Let alone the sound editing - the whole story telling is just totally strong. Again, I’m more than impressed!

    Thomas and Gee you both are so special people. Like you said before you say see you later. You never know what lies ahead for both of you. You both are better off for the great memories you have had together. Gee will always remember you, just you will always remember her. Life is not about how long you live but about living and experiences you have along the way. Thank you for sharing this with us. I understand this had to be the hardest video you ever made. Just remember you can always look at videos for remembering the great times you both had. Keep your head up and you have so much more to look forward to.

    Thomas, the life can be feeling unfair and cruel sometimes, unless it had a deeper sense at the end after some time. You‘ll never know, perhaps a new adventure starts soon… and maybe a new love….
    I wish you and Gee all the best on each others way. May you both find your personal final harbors of life and love some day.
    The world is full with beautiful people! Even if it feels unreal for the moment.
    By the way, it was truly a very nice way to say „Goodby“ at the end of your video!
    Thomas, stay safe in your next sea miles, and don’t leave us alone without new videos of your sailing trip.
    I am looking forward to the real Polynesia videos where you will head next for sure after leaving Tahiti.

As a sailor, I can understand how difficult it is to find someone who is compatible and who is willing to take the journey with you. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

    I'm quite emotional. I'm sad to see Gee go. She was quite a private person, and, I suspect, Thomas had to set her free. Love is funny. No matter how strong it is, it has to be founded on total freedom to thrive. Sadly it doesn't guarantee that the lovers will stay together. Sometimes the real world interrupts and says one of you has to go. But the love lives on.

  • @skniberg

    Just checking in on your channel again, seems I have some catching up to do! BeFree looks in great shape after the Pacific crossing and everything! That was a heartfelt ending 😢 - you both seem so wise, harmonic and loving people. The future will be bright for both of you even if it’s maybe not so fun right now. Wish you joy&happiness, cheers! /windsurfSophia

    This is my first time to watch your youtube channel and I bumped into this heavily emotional yet so very balanced episode of a separating couple. I watched it as though I am on an emotional rollercoaster. What a video! In sharing these moments with such sobriety, resilience, indefatigability and courage is beyond words. Thomas, you are the "younger version of Barry, the Adeventurer Old Seadog", one of my heroes on the sea. I will definetely tell others about you, Thomas. I am sure Gee's experience with sailing the boat and her time on the sea is a memorable one. Good luck to you both, whatever trajectory you will follow, may your breeze be to your ease. 🙂

    For oceans, like emotions, ebb and flow with time,
    And broken hearts, like ships at sea, can mend and learn to climb.
    So let the waves embrace you, as you navigate the blue,
    In ocean crossings and breaking up, find strength in being true.

    This video hit me differently. You made me realise that my coming years sailing might make me forever single. Up until now I thought that I will surely find someone to share that life with, but it can be hard for anyone. Maybe even myself.
    It's sad to see Gee go, but it must have been really heartbreaking for the both of you. 💔
    Lykke til videre Thomas, ønsker deg og Gee den beste fremtid. ❤

    One needs to remember, if you decide to spend you life at sea you aren't going to be spending any time with your family at home. Quite often that is what makes people homesick. It could be as simple as that. Others have dealt wit it with short expensive visits home but that doesn't always work . Sorry guys, was a beautiful journey .

  • @jeffmorton9220
    @jeffmorton9220 Рік тому

    A man needs a woman in his life, especially at sea. Women need a husband, a house and children, neighbors, and a social life. Finding a woman who doesn't conform to the norm has to be tough. There are women who sail for the excitement, but after a while, become aware of their ticking biological clocks, and long for a family life on shore. Back on the boat, the newly found solitude must be awful. I can imagine that the sailing experience with a partner to share it, can bond a man and woman with unique intensity. When she leaves, single sailing on a big empty ocean seems so sad. Best wishes for finding another sailor-woman.

    It is often said that living on a boat is difficult because of day in and day out proximity which increases the risk of conflict. How many times have I heard the story of friendships ending after a 10 day sailing trip!
    If you add the rather hard experience of crossing the pacific few relationships can withstand the pressure.
    How unfortunate, for both of you. How sad!
    Take care and never underestimate the importance of mental health.
