The Skill Share segment was absolutely brilliant lol
Never thought I'd giggle so much from product placement.
Agreed!!!
Very creative and well done!
I agree. I tend to hate product placements but this showed effort. :)
Awesome! LOL!
The camera from inside the B&G, with the data display reversed, was a clever shot. Hope everyone noticed.
That was definitely great!
That was great, i noticed it to. But then again, everything those two does, is great. :-)
AWESOME!
I noticed that immediately. Very clever. That had to have taken a lot of manipulation to make it look that good. Of course it's silly also. : )
Hands down the best sponsored section I've ever seen on a youtube video... Kika's got mad skills
super creative - very well done!
That was seriously amazing.
I thought one of the best parts of the Skillshare ad, was that it was at the end of the video, didn’t throw off the rhythm of the rest of the video. And it contributed personality and insight to life aboard while being entertaining and fun. Great job.
Yep, that was brilliant! I hope Skillshare pays you seriously well for that! Most others start their videos with "blah blah blah something about a thing called Skillshare" Don't know, I just click past it.
I think Kika has a second career in acting if she ever wants it. Great video, as per usual.
I love that you haven't complained about being "stuck" in one country. A lot of other channels have devoted whole videos to how much covid has affected them and its so nice to see you two embrace all that comes!
I've been binge watching through everything and I don't think they've even mentioned Covid once (at least up to this video). Wonder if that's intentional, or they've just lucked out with it not actually affecting them enough to talk about it?
@@bdshort I would imagine it's a combination. They have been in quite remote places so maybe less affected but I also would say it's part their way of being - accepting things as they are - and part strategic choice to keep that out of their channel.
Glad to see your using a safety line for going up. 2 years ago our friend was essentially saved by the safety line when his main halyard shackle broke. Never go up the mast with a single line. Cheers to you guys for showing good seamanship.
Should never be dependent on a shackle. Always tie in to halyard and use an internally run mast halyard.
I just can't get over how clever your videos have become over the years.
You two never disappoint. From your beautiful cinematic b-roll, to your sometimes quirky storytelling. It's always entertaining and educational. But now you've topped it all with your uniquely skillful way to infuse your sponsor. Well Done!!! Skill Share should give you a bonus for this one...
The Skill Share people need you guys to do all their promos. Just brilliant!
I like it , I even watched the Skillshare Ad as it was so cleverly done 😃
Nothing cosier than beeing safely tied to a dock in wintertime when heating and all systems work. And as many have pointed out - brilliant skill-share promotion!
Sumptuous. In this video, there is all of Uma in a few fragments thrown at the lens of a camera.
There is the cold that one feels just savoring the images, your intimate conviction that everything is possible by keeping in mind security, trust in the other one, these loving looks and so respectful of the one you love, this complicity that unites you...
There are so many riches in your souls, so many desires to share other adventures, that we, poor witnesses, can only admire each wave, each breath of wind, each discovery on your part, and we remain thirsty and curious about your future.
The images are more and more beautiful, between close-ups of frozen ropes, breathtaking landscapes, and particularly well-adapted music. We don't just watch, we experience sensations and colors with you.
Thank you for your discoveries which turn into sweet and colorful dreams, where a smile reassures us and leads us into new worlds in our overly calm nocturnal dreams.
Thank you.
I’m very impressed with how well you dealt with spending the winter in Norway, as someone who lives in Montreal with similar winter temperatures you guys did great, especially someone from BC and Haiti. ☃️
Omg, Kika that has to be the best side plug for “Skillshare” I’ve seen here on YT. Good show! Just like Dan, we want to be like _you_ when we grow up. 😆. (50+ here, FYI)
When the raven or crow flies in front of you to the course you choose, then it is a good sign. This is a piece of knowledge from my peoples, the Chippawa
I expect you mean Chippewa (the tribe)....not Chippawa (a suburb of Niagara Falls)? Dumb joke otherwise.
The keeper of the key to the Great mystery. Ravens always lead us to our portages when on canoe trips. Really cool.
@@chris_london123 No. I mean Chippawa. Yoy Yanks never could spell things correctly, like favor in stead of favour and color instead of colour... LOL (that means, laugh out loud) :)Chippawa was one of the largest Nations of Turtle Island and yes that geographic location you speak of is still our lands 🙁
Woah, hope Skill share shows appreciation for that fantastic sponsor segment. I usually fast forward but this was so amazingly well done I sat and watched! And so cool you both liked Brunost!
Okay.....??? That was the FIRST Skill Share advert that I have not skipped past. Well done.... and thanks for the usual high quality video.
Kika, you do the best sponsorship spots on UA-cam, hands down!! I always click forward through those things on others’ videos, but I actually watch yours. Awesome job!!
Try watching a Micarah Tewers video - her promos are insane :)
@@thenotanclan never heard of her.
Expedition Evans last one was seamless.
Expedition Evan’s last one was seamless.
She’s hilarious
Way to go K for making an add original enough to be interesting to watch!
Great video Dan & Kiki! You have definitely avoided the crowds by sailing in snow season! Cheers!
Love your Skillshare bit! "We're gonna need a bigger boat!!" So fun! (Also glad to see you back sailing again!)
That was by far the best Integration with in an integration that I’ve seen yet; so apropos! I kind of knew that you guys were smart people, but now I know just how smart you guys really are...
My 9-week-old cocker spaniel puppy actually screamed and hid under the bed when he heard the harmonica 😆 (He’s fine now!)
Do you know that some dogs "sing" along.
First, my compliments on your selection of music. Your choices complemented each scene. Outstanding work.
Second, Kika's editing makes the video. Your editing skills, Kika, are the best advert for Skillshare.
20:52 "Take a hot shower." Living aboard does give you an appreciation for life's little luxuries, doesn't it?
26:24 "We're gonna need a bigger boat." LOL. Kudos for the reference to Jaws.
I can’t believe I waited around for an Ad! First time ever and it was awesome 🤩 well done KiKa!
I really enjoyed you showing the Nordics. So many of your vlog colleagues / competitors just seem to stay in the warmer climes.
Me too!!
Love you two! Thank you for including us in your adventure.
Great job guys. Love the mast climbing segment. You make the snow almost look fun...almost. Still looks can be deceiving... Love you guys!!!
Very nice plug at the end Kika. Well done.
OUTSTANDING! Once again it's "ALL" about editing and you guys are the best at it!
I love how self sufficient you guys are and the way you crush your boat projects!
I have to admit it, your skillshare ad is the best I have ever seen.
The editing just continues to get better and better, maybe that’s from Skillshare?! And you are becoming quite the actress, I actually watched the entire commercial! I guess that was the point :-)! Nice job, also enjoyed Dan’s explanation of going up the mast.
As always, awesome scenes! But the product placement segment was fantastic! You guys rock 🍷
We have watched all of your videos since Step 1 and are very impressed by your project episodes. In some of your early episodes we noticed our boat right in front of yours in the back end of Riverside Marina when you were working on the bottom prep. We showed our grandson and his comment was "Oh, those are the people who worked late at night". Our boat is back in the Great Lakes (Owen Sound ) right now as we are doing some renovations and then back to the Bahamas and points south. Susan & Rick SV OtherGoose
Wow. What a small world! ☺️
I can’t believe I watched the entire commercial. Editing that likely took four time longer than the prior 10 minutes.
As a Canadian married to someone from a hot country I am very impressed by how Kika handles the winter weather.
I'm continually impressed with kika in general.
Granted, they've spent zero time commuting to work in a mix of dangerous driving conditions, bad drivers, and black slush. So it's easier to like winter without these features.
That’s so sweet. I hate cold weather.
yes shivering here with the heating on xx
Your production just gets better and better. Love your vlogs Uma.
Something that jumped up very clearly to me watching this video is, I can usually never be bothered to watch b-roll in most UA-cam shows/videos, but on this one, and Uma-videos in general, I almost always watch the whole video without skipping anything. I guess it boils down to the production quality that you put in to your videos. In most YT-"shows", b-roll is much more after thought and filler. In you videos it's so much more part of the story, and not "forced". And the ad-segment. Brilliant! (sorry, I mean Skillshare of course =D ).
That Skill share presentation was freaking awesome and very funny. Awesome job Kika. I see acting in your future.
It’s no surprise to see you guys being incredibly creative because you have been proving many ways on your video, but this time of the “Skillshare” CM segment was done brilliantly 👍 and that’s what I love about you, Kika! You are definitely a wonderful artist already, physically as well as so many other fields especially video production has became one of your strength for sure!
Also I always love about Dan’s technical DIY segments ❤️ because he’s really meticulously detailed, knowledgeable and truly well-prepared before filming, moreover he’s visually appealing and intellectually great on what he shows us each time.
I can’t wait to see your next episode 🥰 You two are indeed the most fascinating people who happen to be one of the best sailing UA-camr in the world ✊
You guys have done a great job turning your boat into a world traveler and I Love that it is ELECTRIC. Keep up the good work.
What a smart way to promote "Skill Share"!! you guys are genius!! well done. You are the pride of sailing channels.
I love this episode and the Skill Share plugin was awesome. Great editing!
Great day for me and sailing! Tally Ho. Got her whisky plank and Uma started her sailing season. Best of wishes to all !🌹👍🇨🇦
That skillshare bit was absolutely brilliant.. first time I ever watch the entire ad bit on any video.. You guys need to make sure they pay you more than other creators!!
Wow Keeks! You are one of a creative cookie. Your interaction with your own self in the monitor is full on incredible.
I just finished binge watching almost every episode. It was incredible to watch and learn everything from start to finish... needless to say, I'm getting rid of my couch. Hopefully in a few years I'll be able to set sail!
Great job guys!
As always a pleasure to watch your videos you guys are amazing the way you edit the way you film the way you do everything is amazing just amazing I wish I could afford to sponsor you guys
You two have raised your game to awesome heights, both in front and behind the camera. You and Uma should be very proud of your growth and that thru it all there is still no couch in sight😜
If you ever find yourself wintering over, do your best to find a WHITE tarp next time. You’ll be much happier for it. Being a winter camper I can attest to just how much better life is when nothing is flavoured with a blue or orange hue.
Now THAT has to be the best Skillshare ad ever! Kika's creativity knows no bounds @ all! Well done crew! Best wishes from the UK.
Would recommend your backup carribeaner be locked to the harness directly for redundancy instead of another carribeaner, but otherwise smart setup!
So happy to watch another step! Motivation to power through another week. The BG/Inner Voice concept was cool - looked like you were flying at 22kn!
An absolutely sweet vlog. The instructional bit on “climbing the mast” is brilliant. Thank you.
Tip of the day: Careful when inflating your dinghy in the cold. When the warmer weather hits, the air inside will expand and it could cause a leak or distort. Cheers
Yeah, I'm not even sure the dinghy has actually leaked that much, it could have just gone floppy due to temperature difference from when it was filled last.
Agreed! Pump it if you need to use it, but many boats popped because they were pumped early in the morning, then left in the sun. Come lunchtime...dead boat.
Don't they have a high pressure outlet?
If they are sailing northbound that won't be an issue until August ;-)
@@marcusjac 👍🥶
You two do a wonderful job sharing your adventures. 😊🙏✝️❤️
Usually I skip through the Imbedded ads, but that one was simply brilliant! I hope that they paid you well Kika. What a talent they have fallen upon. Hope Skillshare appreciates you as much as I do. Bravo 👏
PASTA IN THE ELECTRIC PAN?? OMGG, HOW THE HELL I NEVER THOUGHT IN THAT? That's simply amazing! I love electric pans, this will change my life forever!
We use our rice cooker for everything. Pasta, steaming veggies, soup, bread, cake.... o yeah and rice sometimes.
@@SailingUma I'm going to search how to bake bread and cake right now! In an all electric boat seens the natural choice going everything electric. I love the solutions you two have.
Another great episode guys! Thanks for posting! 👍😊
I always appreciate your videos. You guys go above and beyond the norm and they are enjoyable. SkillShare must be ecstatic with your ad. Great job.
you guys rock...I learn a lot from your videos...very cool how you silently leave the dock...thanks for the climbing tutorial (my anchor windlass is just like yours) great teamwork too!
I love the music you guys select too. Good Work
You guys are such excellent sailors. Thank you for showing us Norway in winter. What a magical land.
Nailed it with that skill share Skit 🥰
You guys are the best of the best the song i will always love you comes to mind
Whatever Skillshare paid for that plug was NOT enough. Nice work Kika. Thanks for the up-mast safety run through Dan.
This was beautiful. Learned a lot of climbing safe - Ohhhhh, that snow and crow, Thanks again -
Love getting to see you all trying new things and advancing your sailing experience. I was wondering if your sails were heavier/crispy like your dock lines and ropes? Wondering if it impacted their performance. Watching you on those snowy docks make me nervous. I don't always make the most graceful leaps to dock the boat even on dry docks, let alone snowy ones. Very creative on your Skill Share ad too. Thank you all for being an inspiration. Cheers!
I really enjoyed the commercial. You have a great demo tape there if you ever decide to give up sailing and be an entertainment personality. Voice, expressions, believability, cuteness factor of course, and timing. Did you write it as well, because it is very imaginative and well written?
So great to see you guys on the move again, however I very much enjoyed your adventuring in the town and around the town and of course all the awesome boat work. 💯👍
Very smart/creative way to introduce your sponsor segment. I definitely had fun watching it. Good video,guys!
Classic line "we're going to need a bigger boat," loved it......
The abilities you guys possess are seemingly endless. But HOLY COW, you two NEED to sell your advertising abilities. The Skill Share ad was BRILLIANT!
That was brilliant commercial you made cuz I enjoyed it better than a telly commercial!!! I so enjoy the 2 of you ✌🏻💗😊❣️✌🏻
That SkillShare segment was great and I just want to say, don't let your inner you talk you out of the harmonica! Silence the haters! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bring out your inner "Stevie Wonder" on the harmonica! Lol! Great editing!
I'm no film producer or director but i must compliment you on your production quality. You provide a continuous flow with your video but if one considers the scene changes, camera position changes, cuts and editing it's quite an amazing task for two people and one or two cameras and a drone. The amazing thing about the drone footage is that you rarely see the controller guiding the drone in the footage. Amazingly well done and conributory to the quality of your whole production,
Great video job !!!! You can be proud of you both !!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
It was nice to see you sail even if it was for a small sail ... 😬
not an expert, but i think your raven friend was actually a crow friend! Raven tend to be MASSIVE, and croak more than they caw, if I remember right. I personally LOVE crows
I always find your channel informative and entertaining. You put a smile on my face again.
Ditto. Definitely more interesting/informative/cleverer than 'some of' your competitors, sorry Colleagues.
I'm sure that block has a life time guarantee on it. Your video work is excellent. I love how you got the shot of that bridge opening from shore as well as the boat and the crow. So is that a hint that your going to get a bigger boat?
I like that you guys are exploring the world instead of throwing out permanent anchor in the tropics. Nice matching cold weather gear.
That was without doubt the most creative promotion I've seen on UA-cam for skill share. Great episode too.....
The raven was actually a crow. Nevermind. Great video as always.
You have become sublime
In editing I've been watching your shows
Since 5 thousand subscribers
Just awesome
Denny from Minnesota
Love watching your adventures and your video creating skill are very impressive a lot of attention to detail, very well choreographed and very entertaining. Safe travels and will be looking forward to the next vlog 🤙🏻
Beautifully composed videos. The effort you put in to get those perfect b roll shots. Amazing.
educational, entertaining, funny, clever, cute. Keeps getting better. Thanks
You are a lot more responsible than me when climbing a mast! Just one tip I was given by a more experienced bowman : on the way down I always ask the person tailing the halyard to just leave one turn on the winch. It makes the climb down a lot smoother.
Only 2nd time I've actually watched through a full product placement. Well played!!!
Best sailing channel by far, well done guys, looks a wee bit cold though ! Take care
Being a “Old “ sailor I owned a 1980 Pearson 35’ shoal draft swing keel for 25 years. The layout is almost identical to the 36’. I did quite a bit of cruising and encountered many of the same mechanical projects. I totally enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
It's so great how the wind speed changes from 14 -20 -15 - 21 - 16 -21 - 17 - 22 kn while Kika's speech with herself at chatplotter. Lot's of editing, amazing!
The Skillshare promo was so creative and so well done. I betcha Kika worked at an amusement park or someplace where she played a character or did shows. Her cadence and delivery was perfect!
Love these guys, and I have no clue about sailing and never been on a sail boat. They are just so clever 👌🏽😍
Wow such a beautiful video, you have some of the best production values, just love every minute of all of your videos.... Thankyou for a lovely start to my day.
A very clever "Skillshare" ad, we enjoyed it. As for Kikia and her harmonica,...........the "Marine Band Hohner Harmonica (1896BX-G#)" would do Wonders! :) Safe travels.
Your editing skills are getting incredible good. Nice job on the skillshare promo! Greets from The Netherlands
I LOVE your videos! GREAT watching you two!
Well done you made me watch the skillshare ad. Really clever editing and composing there. Kiki is as skilled and talented in creating and editing video content as Dan is with his technical skills. A good team. Did you notice the reversed nav menu at the side of Kika in the screen view?
