Holidays My A*se! Cheap Boat Equipment is Hard Work | SAILING SEABIRD Ep. 27 

So cool, you should have at least 1 mill. viewers! Don´t EVER give up!

No you are both good at wot you do you are hard workers thank you👍👍💯💯

Terrific post! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Travel. Many beautiful places. Resource gathering. Barge toting and bale lifting. Fine dining. Many boats, including a Tall Ship Festival. Lots of color! What more could we ask for? Thanks and take care. See you again next week.

You make your own luck. The tall ships are beautiful.

Hey great video, love the warts and all journeys you let us see. Never mind the nay sayers - you deserve a holiday - even if it just means a ton of exercise - weight lifting for Stu! The tall ships were lovely, good to get that time in and recharge (with your inverter!). Look forward to the next installment. Keep 'em coming.

hey you put the little round window! great

Tall ships tour was neat! Thanks 😊

28k subs you say? And up to 29 I see above. Well, you ARE intercontinental stars of the silver screen, a swashbuckling rogue with the beauteous Mata-Hari sea-mate. How is this not irresistible?

The tall ships were amazing.

Awesome guys. R&R is the best thing 👌

Great episode!! Thank you!

Great seeing the Norwegian ship come in with all the tops manned.....

Thanks!, and keep up the good work

I went and see the tall ships the last time they were in London back in 1989, it's pritty amazing.

Bag man. It's a way of life!

C’est toujours un plaisir de vous voir bises

I just binged your whole playlist and now I can't wait for more! Thanks for an amazing series so far :)

I truly miss traditions like the crew standing on the yards.

Finaly 😊

Im subbed, and a fan.. Atlanta Georgia! (USA)

That was more of a break for us than you guys you worked, carried and produced aother great video.

Thanks for taking me on (virtually) on your holiday trip. I felt guilty not carrying some of the weight for stu. I enjoyed the tall ships.

The insurance man needs 2 years to inspect the rigging of these tall ships😂😂😂😂

Awesome Video as always!

I saw the tall ships when they were in Dublin. We had sailed over from Pwllheli in my friends ketch in company with a couple of other boats. We moored in Dun laughrie marina and took the Dart train into Dublin and saw the big square riggers moored on the Liffy. Most impressive. Many bands and stalls along the waterfront and a great party atmosphere. Finished the night with five pints of Guinness and the best fish and chips ever. Surprisingly I wasn't sick and didn't have a hangover.

Great content really enjoyed the festival parts so pleased the subscribers are on the up stu never seen you smile so much was good to see you having a good time 😊

Fantastic content enjoyed every minute "STAY SAFE"

Almost 30k ! Thanks for taking me along on your trip.😊

Yess i like your site!!! Keep at it ,looking forward for next one .👍👍👍💪💪

Love the tall ships and the video. I'm renovating a house and constantly searching for stuff at rubbish tips/garage sales and online ... my friends and family think i"m just lucky too :) 28k subscribers is awsome! Cant wait untill your full time utubers and sail to Australia ... Moruya South East NSW ... we have a river inlet 😊

Have fun guys !

I would be sea sick just standing on that pier!

Hydrovane! Yay! We LOVED your holiday. The tall ships were…AMAZING! Your beers looked delicious, too. Thanks for inviting us along. 😎🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰😎

What a great positive episode! Hard work but also having some fun. I found out that you have to make your own luck just as you are doing. My wife and I went to tall ships in Denmark many years ago. We asked the captain of a German boat if we could climb up the mast. He said: "Did you drink alcohol?" Well.... yes. "Come back in an hour." We did and got to climb to the top!!! We go a crew T-shirt from him. Great memory.

Waiting for a train ! Great Stones song!!

Whenever you feel down and out, just watch some of your videos, and you'll feel so much better. It works for me.

Yes that’s true a lot of the time. The harder you work at something it seems luck follows behind the work 👍🖐🍾❤️

Good on you stu and marina. 28 thousand is just the tip of the iceberg for you both. Enjoy looking at the tall ships and enjoy your shopping 😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍👍have fun. Cheers

It's great to see all the Tall Ships again. 55 years ago I worked for a summer as Assistant Chef on a 3 masted schooner..............real sailing!

You two are amazing, and what a lovely couple you make! The tall ships must have been great to see. Anyone who thinks you are having an easy time of it needs glasses and a hearing aid LOL

Tall ships. What is there not to like or love about them? Bloody interesting.

You two are so lucky keep it going

Really good and interesting video, loved the tall ships.

Keep up the good work even though it is obviously hard, and laborers, it’ll be worth it in the end. Love your show

38 years ago time flies

Hi Guys. Its Liam from Ireland again lol Jesus Stu thats like hard Work hauling all the Stuff around 😊 but it has too be done. Its great too get things Sorted out. Those Tall Ships look Fantastic. They must Cost a Fortune. This was a Great Video. I loved it. I cant wait until your back on your Ship lol 😅. I cant Imagine all the Editing you have too do. So fair play too you Stu for Creating this Video. Wicked stuff. Anyway Stay Safe you two and We will Chat laters. 😊😊

What a wonderful video... there's a channel Tigershark Boatworks that is reviving their tall ship .. it started as a retired tugboat and was converted.. those tall ships have that look thats amazing.. thanks for taking us along with you guys..

Thank you, thank you for bringing us with you on your holiday. It was wonderful ! Love the way you research for boat parts. The same way I look for parts. I paid $400. For my 28 ft. sailboat and it came with a great trailer. I am refitting it completely. You are my inspiration ! Bless you both. 🙂 Cheers, S/V Cork ~Texas. How are things in France? The news here in the U.S. makes it sound like the whole of France is on 🔥 fire. Clearly from your videos it is not. Thankfully. ⛵

Nice video, loved seeing all the tall ships. The Tolkien, at 25 mins31 secs, I saw that moored in Warnemunde in germany whilst visiting the Baltic last august. Nice looking boat. In answer to why so many people, including me, have subscribed to your channel, you are a lovely couple who are doing what many of us wish we could, and may do at some point in the future. Buying a boat and learning how to sail and modify/repair it as you go along. All the best, another Stu 🙂

Really enjoyed this post .nice to see you guys out on a mission and holiday ..., getting a lot done already this year ...hopefully that Yanmar fires up for you👍 ....Harry

That Spanish, Pirate, Tall Ship!! is one cool looking Ship! Thanks for taking us along on the feastival tour, looked like a lot of fun. cheers.

Not to be unfair to the other couples building/restoring boats/ships on RU-vid you are the most inspiring. Living the dream on a shoestring compared to the others budgets (I can honestly say I've not heard of any of them humbly and unabashedly dumpster diving in the cast offs for parts and building materials, Bravo!!!). I've also pondered who finances these seemingly jobless people while you stoically shut down your project to go off and earn enough for another year of living and rebuilding your passion. You two are the truly relatable to this old retired blue collar Tool & Diemaker. Good Luck.

Love watching your endeavours. I am sure the end result will be worth all the hard work. Best wishes.

Great video! Thank you.

Loved the tall ships and of course the video. Glad you managed a short break (between sourcing and buying boat bits), should call this episode trains, boats and sails 😂😂😂

Well you certainly packed a lot in to that trip 😃🍻🍕

Was Great! Thanks

Glad to see you guys got time to enjoy yourselves before you get back to work, it'll be good for you both.

gratz on the 28k subs guys...awesome...We always enjoy your vids

Last time I will offer, I’m an English carpenter living in Croatia and am willing to make some bits for your boat for free, I suggested handrails for your coach roof in the past but if there is something else let me know and I will see what I can do. I will even post to you in France at my expense. 🤷‍♂️

If your are filming, you are working, so go on holiday as much as you want! (If you're not filming, go anyway, because everyone deserves breaks!!!)

You can do anything you want. Have fun don't work too hard.

Balls! ya living the dream mate awaiting the next viid cheers n beers Marty Australia

hope your safe and ok, with all the riots in France at the moment...

I admirer your and Stews work commitment,and thanks for letting us come along on you journey you guy deserve all the luck in the world looking forward to future episodes ❤

Well said about the "luck" finding parts at a great price. Anyone who has actually done what you are can attest to the fact that everything is achieved by hard graft. Probably harder finding the gear than installing in many cases.

This is a must see episode as Stu carries the windvane in treacherous weather, we tour the TallShips and Bob manufactures something special. Truly amazing cinematography and exceptional editing. Marvelous!

tienes un estupendo acento español.. saludos desde Tarifa Spain..

Thanks for taking us to the Festival... that is quite the event, would love to check it out some day.

Wonderful video!

Keep producing & hope you fell like you're making progress. You'll be in the water sooner than you think!a

epic boats epic mission haha

Awesome video guys, appreciate your break down on things. You two have such a sweet report with one another that’s quite special to see. Keep up the good work and appreciate Stu’s no nonsense detailed approach to things. Best of luck with your endeavors .

Love this episode, and your style to document the journey. Good luck with your part chases!

Really enjoy your videos, thanks. I got to steer a tall ship Lady Washington across Puget Sound once, sailed just like a sloop which was weird because of the square sails. Anyway, I want to suggest when you glass in the deck that you scarf the fiberglass. That is taper the deck around so there is no vertical edge to crack later.

Thoroughly enjoying your journey Stu and Marina, keep up the great work. It was great to see a bit of Hyeres when you picked up your engine in the last ep, I’ll be there in October (coming from Australia) to supervise the delivery of a new Beneteau to an Aussie customer who’ll be cruising the Med for a few months before undertaking the long journey home. Haven’t been to Hyeres before so loved the unexpected vision and connection. Gradually Seabird is coming together and your muck in and can do attitude is infectious, you are inspirational and a breath of fresh air, thanks for sharing it :) Cheers, Geoff

You definitely make all your own “luck” guys. It’s a great existence you lead but I can guess the kind of work it must take. I just love tagging along. ❤

A great video guys. Always spectacular to see the Tall Ships up close. Seems like a few good additions for Seabird too. 👍👍.

Very nice episode. But waiting for the hull repair. Stu drilled so many holes... im a little bit scared :-)

Truly enjoy your videos! You ARE lucky to be taking on a project most of don’t have the guts to attempt. Can’t wait to see the end result!

Reminds me of when I flew we flew to San Diego to get 4 barient winches carried them across a golf course in the dark from my brother's boat to fly them back to Reno nevada to install on our 30 ft 8 ton flush deck cutter heavy to carry

Woohoo nearly 30K subs onwards and upwards eh

Wow! Would love to know what the tallest mast was at that gathering... we love you guys❤ from Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦

We enjoyyyyyy

Are you going to be using LiFePo batteries? If so you might want to set up your system for 48V. You can always use a step down for your 12V needs but the 48V will safe you a TON of money on wiring alone. Not to mention how much better the usable capacity will be. You can even get "server rack" batteries at a very good price.

The tall ships looked great, missed my chance to see them in Hartlepool this year as I was on holiday in the far north of Scotland.

I Love your videos especially the attitude to problems when they arise its so refreshing to see! oh and also love/miss the chat/colloquialism that Stuart uses "man and boy" and "cooking with gas" etc reminds me so much of home.

That was a great video, very enjoyable adventure. Love Stewarts sense of humor as well!

I appreciate the hard work y’all do to produce these videos, I know it probably takes twice as long to do the work you’re doing if you didn’t have to video and edit them. Thanks again.

Great to see you having some fun and drinking a beer

The French make some great bridges, each one is trying the best the previous! Where does Stewart call home, I did a lot of sailing from Mersea is. Essex. Cheers Warren

Oh Yes! a wonderful video to watch and enjoy! Thank you for sharing your life and adventures with us!

You both never disappoint on the effort and energy you put into everything you do. Such a Inspiration to many.

Not much of a holiday, Still a mini break away from the boat and a much deserved rest visiting the tall ships.

Great job pf acquisition you two! And all the party fun. Yes, you are exhausted now-so rest well! Cheers, Rich

Stuart is the coolest guy in the whole world!!! Not to mention Marina!!!

Hi, the Victron inverter you have got is a vey trustworthy brand so it should serve you well.

It will be 100.000 soon good look you deserve what you get you're good people👍👍💯💯

18:29 Is that a build your own wooden boat kit?

Great job guys. Lovely to see you have some time to yourselves...look forward to seeing Seabird sail into Dubai Marina..❤❤❤
