simply marvelous as always... and I blame you (or give you the credit) for Uma was my first exposure to RU-vid Sailors... so thank you... and please know how much we armchair sailors enjoy you and your adventures

@dearyvettetn4489 10 месяцев назад

Yep! Baby’s first sailing channel, and after a good bingeing, off to sailing school I went. And three years later I still have the bug and I’m closer to packing up and heading out.

If I remember correctly, my first episode was the day Uma arrived in Florida by truck from Boston. I immediately binged watched the episodes I had missed. This channel is my first YT sailing channel and the one responsible for reawakening a childhood dream of sailing the world. The time has gone by so quickly. It has been a true pleasure to have accompanied you guys so far and I look forward to seeing what you will do to make Uma last another fifty years..

@ghost307 10 месяцев назад

My first episode was Kika cleaning the deck of what looked like a boat that was ready to fall apart. Went back to step 1 and haven't missed an episode. My favorite step was their visit to a warship, and my favorite story is about how Coco came to live with them.

@jacobthiessen7027 8 месяцев назад

Same! I remember trying to convince my wife we should live on a $60,000 boat and see the world instead of trying to buy a $300k house to see our neighbor's backyard 😅

@Locajabra 8 месяцев назад

@@jacobthiessen7027 Like Dan and Kika always say, “Don’t buy a couch”

@robertdeland3390 10 месяцев назад

I had been casually following several sailing channels, but when I found yours about four years ago, I promptly binge watched from the beginning to catch up, and have slowly left the other channels behind. This fast review of the past nine years was definitely up to your very high standards of video editing. I have traveled to over 60 countries myself (on land), so I understand your thirst for travel and adventure. Thank you so much. I am looking forward to your coming adventures, especially since you have added the defender to your explorations. I can't wait! Networks with their producers, writers, editors, and more, could learn from the two of you. You two, and your drone, are as good as or better than they are. As I said a few lines ago, I can't wait for what's coming next. Go Uma!

@JustMe-pp1mp 10 месяцев назад

Like most people I found you when Kika first destroyed the furniture industry by telling people not to buy a couch. That was a great episode and they've gotten better each week. UMA was the first boat I watched being taken apart then put back together. For nine years I've watched your sailing adventures, listened to your story telling and being with you as you developed into a wonderful couple who are doing what they love. Thank you for taking us along and best wishes for the next 9.

@nick.caffrey 10 месяцев назад

Epic episode, guys. Good storyline. You pull off the difficult trick of being natural on camera, whilst simultaneously taking care of the essentials of sailing. Looking forward to Uma's new look. She's a fine vessel.

@holyngrace7806 10 месяцев назад

Wonderful! I remember you starting out, "Don't buy a couch!"

@CrimeaBlue 10 месяцев назад

It's wild to know how long I've been enjoying yout videos. Your story has been amazing to watch. Thank you for bringing us all along for all these years. You guys are inspiring. You prove, again and again, that you can do anything you set your mind to. Keep it up. ❤

@czeslawpi 10 месяцев назад

I have long maintained that the explosion of RU-vidrs has negated the need for anyone to go to film school. The experience and skills that content creators are developing in the real world making real stuff for real people far outshines any formal education. This channel is the first one I mention when speaking about this. Great work Kika - keep it up! BTW, when is the wedding? Or are you just staying engaged?

@AndieBlack13 10 месяцев назад

"...negated the need for anyone to go to film school." Really?, I'm guessing your standards for cinematography is rather low then...most all created video content here on RU-vid is of rather poor quality, lighting, sound, composition, creative cinemaphotography utterly lacking.

@Gregemio 10 месяцев назад

I've watched every single episode, but I'm so glad you made this. Bring on the future!! I cant wait to see where Uma 2.0 takes you.

@MistiMoan 2 месяца назад

The hurricane is where i started watching from. Went back to ep1 and binged. It's been a great ride

@ALittleCLAIREification 10 месяцев назад

This was fantastic! I've seen every episode and having that re-cap was really fun. I am also so glad you just ignore the negative comments and do your thing. Those of us that follow along are in it for the adventure. Also - this might be my fave Vie (Vee?) moment to date. 💜😂

@TheAtma50 10 месяцев назад

I joined you about 15 episodes in, and I went back to the start to catch up, I can't believe it's 9yrs but what I can honestly believe is the enjoyment ye brought to me and how ye helped me to want more from life for myself ... ye showed me, anything with a little work is possible. Thanks for the memories of the last nine years and here's to the promise of the next nine. Cheers guys, Stay Safe & Fair Winds!!☘

@banyameadow8864 10 месяцев назад

My first vlog of Sailing Uma I saw was the episode during the atlantic crossing facing big waves. It was the beginning of my own sailing adventure because of you guys. Now 3 years later my husband and I learned sailing and own a cute little Gazelle des Îles named „Undine“ and we are exploring the german coast of the baltic an inland waters. Thanks for taking us along, for sharing and inspiring us. I guess I wouldn’t have taken the challenge to learn how to sail and operate a boat without your channel. 😘⛵️

@jannepeltonen2036 9 месяцев назад

I found your channel when you were stuck in the UK and fell absolutely for it when you were sailing up north. That was and still is one of the most incredible adventures on this platform ever. Thank you for sharing it with us!

@donnawarmouth9329 10 месяцев назад

Uma is my first love of sailing shows on RU-vid. You guys will always be number 1 in my heart. The way you video and the way you share such a amazing story is top notch!!!! I can’t wait for the next 9 years!!!

STELLAR recap! And your sponsor drama had me in tears of empathy AND laughter! You guys should produce a movie and then you might earn the $ for a larger vessel. Meanwhile, congrats for a life (so far) very well-realized!

@paulhellewell9468 9 месяцев назад

I don't care anything about what the nay-sayers go on about you THREE. I love your videos all because the two of you make a GREAT team!! You three are willing to go where all the fair weather sailors don't want to go, too scared to go or just plain too bloody lazy to do as you have done because it would take too much of their drinking time. I absolutely love seeing those rugged almost black and white with an occasional splash of colour or at least a slash of green pictures and videos all against the deep blue sea. You can take the southern latitudes but for me the rugged spirit of the north, where it's you and the bare nature of our beautiful planet that makes my heart sing. Thank you for it all. Fair winds and gentle waves to all three of you.

@tokyobosco 10 месяцев назад

I am 59 years old about to be 60 and I’ve been boating for about 15 years. I have a 24 foot walkaround powerboat and I love it. However, I can’t help but to envy the freedom you two experience on your sailboat. I love how you’re partners in everything you do; plus your channel is professionally done and exciting. As much as love watching you both sail around the world, I’m just unwilling at this point in my life to try to learn how to sail, so I’ll have to live my sailing life through your experiences. Keep up the good work and smooth sailing.

@GuyFromGeorgia 10 месяцев назад

You 'sailed south to Iceland'. That is VERY cool to be able to say in the cruiser community, yes? I'd use it all the time. GREAT video, guys! And I gotta say, the segue into your sponsor ad was excellent. Well-considered creative...and excellent editing and audio. Don't think that shit doesn't get noticed.

I am not a sailor at all, I travel with a camper van, but I am so impressed by your adventures, on the edge being jealous of the freedom you experience and show us. On top of that, I want to compliment you on the really sublime level of your edits. I look forward to the footage of the rebuild of your boat. Greetings from The Netherlands.

@mycroftholmes6463 10 месяцев назад

My grandfather was a tugboat cook and he made it to the NY TV news shows as he floated in a life ring, smoking a cigar and wearing his fedora after the barge his tug was pulling passed his boat flipping it over in Hell's Gate. Amazingly complex currents in that river.

@paul_gradenwitz 10 месяцев назад

Should I really spend my time for a fast recap of what I already did see? Well, it is UMA, there even a recap is a piece of art that keeps you looking because the story is told fluent and shows each highlight not too long and not too short. Loved it.

Seeing UMA empty reminds me of building pilot boats back in the UK. The only real difference is the pilot boats have hollow stringers glassed in for additional strength. Watching your 9 in 9, I realised how long I've been following your progress, maybe a bit envious as life commitments haven't allowed me to leave Spain yet :)

And now you make Uma new again, ready to next 9 years. Take really good care. Looking forward to watch it all. Best sail channel, videos, keep up the good work. Cheers from Norway 😁
