    I followed your channel few years ago then lost you. I admire your ideology of put putting Earth first, planting of trees, pushing for wind powered ships developing a sustainable community. I would love to see this project being completed and objectives being realized. Keep on pushing!

    Too bad that they haven't posted a progress report in a long time, i found out about it from watching Acorn to Arabella almost 6 years ago.

    @ Northwest Maritime : this is all very puzzling ?? historical footage of Ceiba , yet I haven't seen a new video from Sail Cargo in
    ?? more than a year ?? perhaps , and Ms Danielle had stepped down as the CEO of the company even before that , yet here she is .
    Viewers are going to be curious as to what your connection to the whole thing is ??

      @@daniel_charms I was following the project back then. The pandemic hit and coincided with the increased capital requirements of fit out. “Viability” is not well defined when global shipping flops from so cheap we ship our garbage, to so expensive supply chains lock up. All the while shipping continues to evade environmental and geopolitical mandates.

    Plainly you are not going to launch in 2021. So what? This is a whimsical project meant to light up your imagination. If it doesn't make a profit, again , so what? It is a unique project and I am sure that most investors weren't too worried about the return. Keep going, ignore the detractors and follow your dream.

    this beautiful shipyard seems to be carried by nice little elves. In a more traditional way, we would expect an interview with the technical director.( L Guimond ?) some explanations on the organization of the work and a little less on the notions of inclusiveness, certainly progressive.Où en est l'association avec les cafés williams ? comme on dit en bon français ; qui trop embrasse mal étreint ? On a business level, D Dogget could draw inspiration from TOwt's customer system, which detaches itself from price fluctuations in maritime transport and attracts new investors.

    Delusions of grandeur! Launch in 2021? It's now almost 2025 and we haven't seen a video for about a year, and in that last video you hadn't started on exterior planking yet. You'll be lucky to get this in the water in another decade. This is not a sustainable business model and you're lying to yourselves, the public and your investors.
