BOAT TOUR: 18 YEAR OLD Boat Renovation 

Your children will have some amazing stories to tell when they are older. Have fun, be happy and enjoy.

Old Story "happy wife happy life" well done looks good and very functional.

Sounds like a sale’s video for the boat

I love that you’re trying to create a home for the kids where they won’t feel confined:))

You guys did a fantastic job of renovating and renewing your boat. Impressed.

Love the remodel! Both of you are wonderful parents. Your children will have great memories

That really looks like a new boat. Well done.

You guys are awesome parents ❤ Your kids are going to be so well educated and aware of different cultures so amazing 😎❤️

Be on the look out for the next video where they put Nahoa up for sale!!

Looks good, nice and fresh! As you were showing the various areas, I was thinking how much room you have, how comfortable it looks. Great job, on with sailing again!🎉

Stunning improvements, you are right it looks like a new old boat. But all in all it looks great, well done

Congrats on the renovation. The video feels like a sales pitch 😉, you eyeing a new boat after the circumnavigation.

Your redo looks fantastic!!! It looks so clean and also comfortable! Great job!

Ah this is so amazing!!!! We're so happy to see how you're using our baskets! We really appreciate your support!

Your boat home looks amazing! Enjoy your next passage. Thanks for the peeps of Table Mountain, the V&A. What a beautiful marina. Love from a South African in NZ.

Really think everything on your yacht looks awesome... and love that fact that you never once mentioned a monetary cost... like some other RU-vid Sailing Channels that don't stop talking about how much everything costs!!!! Very enjoyable to watch and will continue to appreciate and take pleasure in your adventures! Thank you.

So glad you two are happy with all the work to upgrade your home.

Nahoa looks great. Everyone has their own place, and the dining and living room areas look so friendly. Safe sailing!

My wife and I just watched this video. You did a fantastic job on the remodel! We really like how it turned out. Blessings to you as you do your Atlantic crossing.

Love the color choices especially the white makes it look brand new and vupholstery. I especially like the closed in patio area which gives more room for Willa and Brodie to be creative. You both did a fantastic job doing the remodel work and refit and the cushions look and feel comfortable, new and a great job on measuring and uphostery. A perfect fit.

Not a normal family. An extraordinary family leading a normal life. Creating extraordinary experiences. Love watching you guys for all these years. Kirk.

The renovations look awesome - definitely has that Outremer look now. Don’t ever apologize for giving yourselves & your kids such an enriched & extraordinary life sailing around the world. 👍

Your boat looks great. Good job on the cushions!

You're both looking bright, lighter, and confident for your next passage. Very nice job.

Wow everything looks great!

Beautiful. It is so much brighter in the kitchen now, which must be helpful mentally. Stay safe, and stay inspired.

Boat looks like new now. I'm sure everyone is ready to see new trips. Everyone looks so great as well

Looks great and we love Corian also

Excellent! Your kids are so lucky to have these experiences. Theyll grow into amazing citizens. Well done guys! 👌

Great job, thanks for inviting us in the admire your work!!

What a beautiful upgrade! The craftsmanship on the cushions are fantasic

Your boat looks so beautiful! I am looking forward to watching you sail...

I'm lost for words......it's beautiful looks modern and chic ... I've watched a lot of vids and your yacht is the one in every respect... I'm sure the exchange rate helped ...

What you've done is absolutely incredible! Nahoa looks like a new boat! Ashley you did an amazing job on the colours and design and Ben has now been through, upgraded or rebuilt every component from rigging to dingy and from air conditioning, to autopilot and water-maker. She really is a new boat - to suit a new family. (Don't keep it too cool in your room... you don't have room for another bambino!)

Just beautiful. When there are only 2 Adults with 2 little ones on a boat, YOU NEED ORGANIZATION AND EFFICIENCY! Especially during rough seas. 5 mins, 10 mins, kid distractions and safety. The boat seems like it is so amazing and will bring you JOY. The question I have is when the engine is under a bed, do fumes escape into the living area? Or how is it vented out of the room? I remember Curiosity had diesel fuel tanks under their bed and needed new tanks. Congrats and blessings.

Wow! You have done an awesome job. You’re right! It looks like new.

Your boat looks great.. you both look strong and ready... Happy, and ready to sail. Good for you. Thank you again for sharing. I always look forward to seeing your family.. 😅

Ben you are a lucky guy,that is one fine lady u got there.

I love the lighter color for the interior. It makes everything look more "open" and less "tight".

great call out on the cushions people. Headroom is tight for you Ben. Like how the kitchen now looks.

Looks so amazing with the makeover. Well done

Awesome job! Inspiring….and we’ll need it! Cheers guys!

You both did so great in designs, comforts, functional needs, and making her even more a new hone since you got her. Congratulations and fair winds on your new adventures. Hugss to you all.

The renovations to nahoa is awesome you guys deserve it I love the planning you guys put into everything. good luck on your next adventure. Look forward to seeing it. Tom from the Bronx🇺🇸🙏🏻

Nahoa looks fantastic! Great choices. Safe passage across the Atlantic. And your two kiddies lucked out in the parent department! ❤

Excellent video, thanks for sharing your remodel. I've been following you guys for years and always look forward to your next video and adventure....Larry

What a fantastic transformation, huge congratulation's.

Awesome and beautiful boat. Great job!

Wow! The boat looks amazing! Safe travels to your family!

Nahoa looks beautiful. Cape town is an excellent place to do major refit. Looks like a new boat!

You did a fabulous job! The boat looks brand new and functions perfectly for a family❤

Nahoa looks better the when new, you have done an amazing job.

Wow!! Looks like a totally new boat! Good Job Guys! Much brighter.

Lovely work!, so happy for you! Looks really nice.

You guys always have great videos. The labor of love comes through in everything you do.

It looks great! What a difference a little paint and new flooring makes. I know how big of a leap of faith it was to paint, though. Once you do it, it’s almost impossible to go back. I painted the walls in my motorhome and had the same trepidation. But now, it’s so light, airy and modern looking. Nice upgrades and updates all around!

Great work but would never touch the bulkhead situation....

Wow! What a stunning boat! I love how bright UT is now and all the newbies! Great job guys! NAHOA never let's us down. Family is beautiful and the kids are growing like weeds! God bless from Tennessee

It's beautiful

Willa is an amazing artist for her young age. I'd love to buy some Willa art on t-shirts!!! Your boat looks beautiful.

A fine looking Reno. I’m very happy for you🌱

Upgrade looks fantastic! If you see the seal again, with the rope around its neck, let the Aquarium know. They have a team which are well trained in removing ropes, plastic, wires, etc. Fair winds for the next leg.

Well done your a sailing channel that actually sails further than the Bahamas that’s impressive,whatever your intentions with the boat you deserve what you require because you don’t beg just get on with it cheers

Personally I don't care for wood but I definitely have an orange colored wood budget. Love what y'all have done with the boat!

You guys could probably re-finish all of the wood to a more teak color, and get rid of the orange tone, down in the hulls. Probably more expensive than painting, but would look amazing.

Ohh and the boat looks awesome !!!!! Love it 🙃

It looks awesome guys nice job

Good job on the redo of the interior looks really good.

Remodel looks fantastic, brand new looking boat inside.

Just dropped in for an update .. those kids have grown .. must be a couple of years since I touched base with your channel .. been watching Sailing uma . Now I gotta choose which to watch .. maybe it will end up Both . your cat is amazing loads of space .

Really telling the cut at the end from the orange owner's hull back to the fresh, light living space. Well done!

There is nothing normal about you guys and Nahoa is nothing like a normal house!!! 😹

Great job! 👏🏻💯 What about the seal though, could you help it, get the rope off of its neck?

"Normal Family" Come on You both sound and look so positive. Congrats on all the boat updates. Great video

beautiful job, It will be so much fun following you on your trips again. I was kind of wondering where you had been.

I sense a sale of the boat in the near future

The interior remodel is BEAUTIFUL! I'm so happy for you!

Love it, Great job! Love all the video's!

I had to binge watch ! Guys your the best parents ever! Your vessel is beautiful.The white paint made all the difference..Nahoa looks stunning an all the work all put in just made your vessel look brand spanking new!! The floor is beautiful!! Fare winds and following sea's ✌🏼💗😊⛵

New Reno’s make it look like a brand new boat! Can’t believe how much your kids have grown!

Looks like you to be an engineer and a mechanic to maintain all those systems. Btw married 55 years - that Honey-do list never gets shorter.

Beautiful upgrades & reno! Thank you for the tour! I was wondering what happened to the seal? You have a beautiful family & think a lot about your kids’ needs! 💛

Very well done, the changes suit you but also make the boat a stunner as you have tied things together with a real eye for detail. Here's to the next legs, cannot wait.

Good luck with the Sail Sale

Get some cushion protectors that are easy to wash.Great video.

A fabulous craft with extraordinary stories in her soul.

That looks much more modern and being very light colours the space looks bigger. I prefer that look to wood being everywhere. Wood looks good as trim in moderation but too many boats seem to OD on it.

Nahoa looks fabulous! You’ve made such a clean and larger looking salon. Great Job!

Spectacular remodel/refit! Looks new.

Looks beautiful!! Love all of the upgrades. Kind of seems like y'all are going to sell and get yourselves a new boat..... Really does look nice. Have a blessed day. :0)

Great to see you make Nahoa like new again. Love your vlogs. There was no update on your next voyage, so I hope you post somthing I can look forward to. Thanks, Peace!

I have been following you for year's. I figured that when you were having Willow, y'all would quit. I have enjoyed watching your family grow. So..........😍

Maintenance and upgrades are part of the game when you own a boat or in my case a travel trailer. So many people just use things and then buy new. Take care of things and they can last many years. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to your travels.

Your boat looks very beautiful and homely inside, and Cape Town can get very unpleasant during winter, and the South Easter wind(the cape doctor) also contributes to a very unpleasant time, it had me flat on my butt a few times hahahaha.

Great upgrade!.. Major improvement! It looks easy to clean & maintain. It look great!

Amazing renovation your boats😊

Looks awesome💥✨🌟glad you got it all done so well in CPT

Yes ! Was waiting for your video! So when do you deliver your boat to the new owners and hop on a new boat comming out from the launching ramp next to you?🤔🙃😉❤️

What a massive differance that saloon in now totaly transformed the boat you must be super happy with it

Such an awesome boat… Excellent work and beautiful styling. Looks so comfy. Thank you very much for sharing. I’m very happy for you guys. I hope you were able to enjoy the freedom to de-stress with cannabis in South Africa now that they decriminalized. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos. (This is just the second one that I’ve seen.) I pray that God bless your family with divine things and with joy evermore. Amen Peace
