I hope you didn’t mind but I just emailed Rolly Tasker Sails and let them know we appreciated what they did. They definitely deserve to be recognized and kudos to them for spotting a good sailor to help!

@SamuelKTennis Год назад

Amen!

@MaMa-st2eg Год назад

I just finished writing them as well....the more they hear from us, the more confident they become in their decision. Holly is such an inspiration in a world of quitters, complainers and mindless wonderers.

@rickkwitkoski1976 Год назад

I believe they sponsored Matt and Amy a few years ago. Full set of sails. Also helped Delos about 10 years ago with new standing rigging.

@WindHippieSailing Год назад

Wow thank you so much guys! I really appreciate this :)

@MaMa-st2eg Год назад

@@WindHippieSailing Holly you are an inspiration to so many of your viewers. You have inspired so many people that a can do, no quitting and determined soul is the best humanity has to offer and is it's best representative. Love you channel and you have earned my total respect and admiration. My daughter who is a Marine respects you and you have given her confidence as well.

@Nerd3927 Год назад

Thank you so much for donating a main sail to the most deserving RU-vidr, Rolly Tasker!

@Sonnell Год назад

I do not know any youtube sailor who would have better deserved such a sponsorship than you, congratulations! :)

@kurtschwoppe7167 Год назад

That new sail is gorgeous!! What an awesome thing for Rolly Tasker to do!! I'm sure, like the rest of us, they were totally amazed at your low-key attitude during the last passage with no motor and a shredded mainsail. You and your sister inspired us all.

@bobsharp6489 Год назад

Hats off to Rolly Tasker.... this girl will be the best ambassador for your brand you could ask for. First Class

@brucerhodes8197 Год назад

Timing is everything, getting the new sail just before an 1,100 mile crossing had to give you a lot of peace of mind!

@nickbenfell4327 Год назад

Hats off to Rolly Tasker Sails for donating the mainsail. I also believe they donated a spinnaker to Sailing Florence. Guess where I will be going to order any new sails.

@elizaandalisa Год назад

Mate always used tasker sails you won't regret dealing with them cheers n beers Marty Australia

@dominictarrsailing Год назад

"got two birds stoned at once" this phrase has entered my vocabulary. thank you Holly!

@robm.4512 Год назад

😁Yep, that pinged in my mind too, love the image.😂

@thomascooley2749 Год назад

Congrats on the sponsorship you definitely deserve it

@oceanwoods Год назад

Thank you Rolly Tasker for helping to keep Holly safe!

@peterstarck564 Год назад

Thank you for not swearing so my kids can watch and go along on your adventures....your sense of humor is hilarious!

@MouseToes Год назад

Rolly Tasker Sail you are THE BEST! so very generous of you to help Holly and her boat logo was just a wonderful and kind bonus on this sail. Your support of this solo sailor with a Can do attitude and NO whining is just fantastic.

@neilcampion3118 Год назад

Well done Rolly Tasker. There isn’t a sailor out there who is more deserving. The sail is top quality and fitted like a glove

@sailingloveworkx Год назад

I am so happy for you that Rolly Tasker gave you this wonderful mainsail! Enjoy you next leg!!❤

@dr.buzzvonjellar8862 Год назад

That’s a gorgeous sail! The stitching and craftsmanship are fantastic

@jodyssey9921 Год назад

I love seeing a person making stuff work with the most basic skills and materials. Far more impressive than watching people who just throw money at every problem. This is why I watch your channel and not the ones with people on a half million dollar yacht.

@contentforcoaches Год назад

Yay Holly! Yay Rolly Tasker! What a great team! :)

@maknifeandrods7701 Год назад

Omg that was sooooo nice of them to do that. And the fact that you already had one of their sails is unbelievable. I’m so happy that you are in a much safer boat now and thank you so much for the snack. I live in the Georgia mountains now and know nothing about sailing. But following you, the Arabella, and Sampson boat. Gives me a happy feeling when watching. God bless and I will keep watching.

@Gilespargiter Год назад

So good of Rolly Tasker. Long may your adventurous entertainment continue. Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos.

@atj226 Год назад

Very cool. I bought Rolly Tasker sails, as replacement sails, for my MacGregor. I, too, am really happy with the quality and performance of Rolly Tasker.

@ImnotChuck. Год назад

Congrats on the new freebee sail. You deserve it and Rolly Tasker will get some great publicity from your channel.

@roryvonbrutt7302 Год назад

Rolly Tasker, No motor, no engine, Shredded old Main sail.... No problem ...Super Holly‼️®️™️

@liberty4175 Год назад

Thank you Holly and Tisch for the snack.

@jaseholroyd2683 Год назад

I need sails for my mono so I’m going to buy from Rolly because of the love (sponsorship) they gave you.

@user-qc6gz1hr9n Год назад

Well done Rolly Tasker. Such a deserving recipient.❤

@oldseadogcb3130 Год назад

Rolly Tasker Sails have done you proud Holly, as you have towards them for being the Master sailor you are✌Fair Winds and Following Seas for your passage to Vanuatu Holly, and take love & respect from all that follow your journey🤗🏴‍☠

@alexandramorkin400 Год назад

Rolly Tasker is incredible to send that new sail. Congratulations 🎉

@roadboat9216 Год назад

What a beautiful sail. Smart on their part. And you deserve it!! I hear lots of good things about R. T Sails and service.

@user-ef3xh9yt7k Год назад

I'm happy that you got a new main sail. The old one was pretty bad. Love your positive attitude and kind disposition.

@SamuelKTennis Год назад

I do not think I had noticed that distinction (kind disposition) before, I do not know if have ever heard Holly utter an unkind word! I always new it was there, just had not consciously thought about it.

@robinwells8879 Год назад

I reckon that you got full value out of that old sail! Much respect to Rolly Tasker for stepping up so gallantly with a new one and choosing such a cool brand ambassador. 👍

@markbennett9787 Год назад

Rolly Tasker are looking after you and Erik Aanderaa, both of you produce excellent RU-vid content but from really different directions !

@Gilespargiter Год назад

Peter Lawless Solo Sailing (Waxwing) also.

@robinwells8879 Год назад

Both fearless voyagers and no mistake.

@olivertitz9972 Год назад

Wow....this new sail will set a new Speedrecord with your boat!!! Trust me...👍👍👍

@patrickgoff9514 Год назад

Thanks for another great video. Your old sail was beyond words!! I recycle and upcycle but THAT was an act of optimism!! A new sail will change the whole experience!

@jackrichards1863 Год назад

You're so right about that I'll just weigh in with my voice to your words on the sails scenario 👍

@braithmiller Год назад

Taking all the excitement out of sail repair at sea. Thanks, Rolly Tasker. Found myself on their website in the last week. Need more than a few myself.

@eamonncoady9823 Год назад

Have a set myself Braith. Build quality is top drawer. Ned😊

@flyslow2096 Год назад

No more swearing. Keep all the little babies happy.

@captainsalty9022 Год назад

If you can find it, dry silicone spray in the bolt rope slot is a repeatable solution to the sticking of the plastic slugs. You have to repeat it periodically, but it will help.

@carolkar5687 Год назад

Good decision Rolly Tasker Sails....Holly is the most authentic,positive sailor.

@billwagstaff5571 Год назад

Thanks Rolly Tasker Sail for helping this fine sailor.

@AnthonyPosi Год назад

A run-in, hang out vid with you and parlay revival would be quite fun to watch.

@tim7652 Год назад

That is incredible that Rolly Tasker stepped up and got you a new sail. It shows that there are still companies out there with integrity and heart. You should cut off pieces of your old sail and sign and send them to your patreons as a memento of thier support. Keep smiling and having fun.

@monsterhog1118 Год назад

The new sail looks awesome!

@Anmeteor9663 Год назад

Nice sail. RT got themselves a good deal with this fun little advertisment feature episode. Pity they didn't send you a full suit of sails and cruising chute.

@richardboody6709 Год назад

Your mom is so amazing and I can see where you get to desire for adventure

@stevelawrie9115 Год назад

Geez Holly, new engine, new sail. You could go around again. :)

@dougfaulkner6799 Год назад

Really enjoyed this one. So cool your working jib has a new home and its branded. Fair winds and following seas to you miss Holly. Looking forward to the next episode.

@Wanderglobe Год назад

Nice! Usually sponsored videos are for something like NordVPN but this one is actually really useful, informative and it keeps Hollie safe which is really all we care about. Cheers Rolly Tasker. I just bought my first sailboat ever and if I'm in need of new sails, you'll be on the list.

@shanep5121 Год назад

We love you, Holly! We have watched all your videos. You inspired me to follow my dream. I hope you're still out there when I hit the water in '26!

@DanO530.8 Год назад

Pretty amazing a problem occurs along the way and you are fixing it yourself i wish i could have spent more time with my two daughters teaching them how to fix things instead of getting ripped off by society and greed i love your drive and motivation thanks for sharing you got this …

@tippyzuk1 Год назад

A thing of beauty, should really improve sailing. Nice to deal with companies that go above and beyond!

@azv503 Год назад

Rolly Holly what a team !

@gezimcakerri6886 Год назад

This is the most comprehensive advertisement from an individual like you Holly. You deserve that gift from Rolly Tasker which in return, it will be reflected in their sales and reputation.

@krispress7824 Год назад

Happy you got a new sail. I have Rolly Tasker sails on my boat.

@electricboatal Год назад

Wow Holly! I hope that you don’t have to pull out the sail repair kit for a very long time. I would also like to say that I will put Rolly Tasker at the top of my supplier list for sales in the future. For them to reach out and offer to help you tells me that they are the kind of people that I want to work with. Bravo!

Happy new (crunchy) main sail! And congrats on your sponsorship with Rolly Tasker! 💖

@pjhenders Год назад

Beautiful new main! Loved the closeup details, I felt like I was there. I could almost smell the new fabric.

@sailingiwa 8 месяцев назад

We have been super happy with our Rolly Tasker Mainsail, great company!

@mikereid2865 Год назад

Delightful episode and such good fortune to get a high quality sail as a gift. Happy sea trials.

@captainsalty9022 Год назад

Holly, you are a sailing ANIMAL!

@murphmurph2124 Год назад

Thanks Rolly for helping out our HERO Holly to keep going,Have fun Holly be safe

@rosiegreddogyachts4135 Год назад

Congrats on your new main. That would meet my approval. Use dry lube on the slides. And keep those seizings tight. That’s what stops the slides from capsizing and jamming. I’ll bet your boat sails sooooooo much better. Will heel less, and make you go, especially when you vang to control twist. Glad you are going to Vanuatu. That will be big adventure. Keep on keepin’ on.

@DougVarble Год назад

Rolly Tasher sails are the BOMB🎉. Just another incredible video 😊

@davidthesailor5022 4 месяца назад

Your bosun's chair is a blast from the past. Musto and Hyde split into Musto, the clothing brand, and Hyde, the sailmaker, in about 1980. Good to see the company started by Aussie sailing legend Rolly Tasker is still providing such a good product and service and is supporting RU-vid sailing channels. I reckon I'd noticed the boomerang on your old headsail in some of your videos.

@ianwhite1287 Год назад

I used to live just down the road from Hyde sails (of musto and hyde) in benfleet. Great company, and they used to make amazing duffel bags from their rubberized material!

@scotttan6377 Год назад

#RollyTaskerSails ( Australia ) - this company rocks for coming through for #WindHippieSailing !

@MarkWYoung-ky4uc Год назад

Hi Teiga, Hi Mom! Congratulations on the new sail Captain. I don't know much at all about sails but that looks like a top of the line high quality sail.

@WindHippieSailing Год назад

They say hi back!:)

@mowhoknow5098 Год назад

Wow great for you! The new sail looks amazing looking forward to the next 4years!

@themakerspath Год назад

Awesome content! Even with a new sail you still have to pack the repair tape. ;-) Great job landing some free gear from a sponsor. Hopefully more sailing companies get on board to support your Ocean passages. :D

@justdoi8909 Год назад

oooooh that sight at 14:10 of a brand new sail, lovely shape !!!

@gusthunter8780 Год назад

That looks great! So exciting for you to have a new sail.

@paulfreer1302 Год назад

Rolly Tasker Sails made an awesome choice reaching out to you with this wonderful gift, You deserved this and it makes for a wonderful advertisement for them a win win in my book. Have a wonderful adventure going forward :) ♥much love♥

@luludawg1 Год назад

Awesome looking and top notch quality sail! Looking forward to next video!

@dave.willard Год назад

Wonderful that you got a sail sponsored! You deserve it!

@robertowen758 Год назад

Top tip with sail slides. Next time you are up the mast squirt some cheap household furniture polish in the slot, jam a cloth in it and run it up and down. Costs nothing and as it is polish not lube it doesn't attract dirt. Next time you drop the sail it will literally land on your head.

@tvonzweck Год назад

You deserve many sponsors!

@guydepoorter Год назад

Thank you for your smile in all circumstances. Fair winds. Cheers from Palma d M .

@memyselfandi9365 Год назад

Unbelievable...no engine and the sail stuffed.. I'm still trying to work out whether you are mad or courageous..😅. .Thank you Rolly Tasker for saving this wonderful girl.😊

@chuckeelhart1746 Год назад

Awesome. Love the new mainsail!

@SeattleLifeguard Год назад

If you spray your track and slides with silicone then they'll go up and down like a dream!! Also, pretty cool that you have two stoned birds on your boat. =)

@RAEckart22 Год назад

9:00 I pictured The Black Crowes logo when you said, "I kinda got two birds stoned at once with this whole situation."

@erents1 Год назад

So cool to see a company fuck you on this new sail! And it’s great to see you sailing. I’ve learned so much from you and I am twice your age, maybe three times your age!

@tomheim5617 Год назад

love the EXTRA great looking main !! sail safe

@anthonyvespia6662 Год назад

Holly, so happy for you, and your boat. You have so much passion with that boat, as we all do. I watched you restore her from 3ft of snow, wasps chasing you, lol, and making her your own. You do so many things alone. Stay safe and enjoy your next adventure. 🙏 🌊 ⛵
