I had my worries about how the channel would progress going from building to sailing. I really loved the build part. Happy to report that this has turned into my favorite sailing channel now. Kinsey's smile just does me in, what a sweetheart.
I watch several sailing channels for many years, yours is special because you built it. "Adventures of an old sea dog" is a close second, That old timer is crazy.
I will never tire of the shots of the wooden masts with the sails up, looking up to the sky. I takes me back to the episodes when it was crafted and it still amazes me to see how they turned out. Thanks for sharing.
It was a real treat to be able to hang out with Rediviva and crew this summer! Many great memories were made with you guys! We had a fresh jam sesh on Rediviva while chowing on Garrett's fish nuggs, which were fantastic! Nice shout out to Island Fox! 🦊 Thanks for the fun times! See you on this flip side!
I cannot get over how seamlessly you craft your narration. To me it’s a wonderful spoken diary that’s enhanced by the video rather than the reverse, which is more commonplace. It’s incredibly involving, like a good book, I love it.
Every time I see that tiller I just smile to think I had just a little something to do with the build and now the everyday operation of the boat. An intregal part of the boat. Thanks for using it.❤
Hi,I watch several sailing channels,and I noticed that you were playing the intro music to “Sailing Fair isle”,it is definitely worthwhile watching…as is yours.Cheers Roly🇬🇧.
Ruth, not sure if you got a trim or your hair is just growing out but Absolutely adorable, even messed up, it works! Just wanted you to know and Kinsey, well just plain cute as all get out that is becoming quite the deck hand👍
Worth a try??? I use a cell phone recharging pack hooked up to our camera with the usb cable to keep the camera going during battery "issues". It's a bit of a pain as the battery pack does add weight (we use a simple rubber band to keep it attached to the stick) and is a bit cumbersome, but it does keep the camera going as well as the main camera battery stays charged 👍Don't know if it'll help you but it might be worth a try🙏🙏 Oh to be young again... Have fun & be safe out there 🙂
I have to say that I have loved this channel since I found you forming to pour the keel. Even the rough times were still very good videos and showed that everything can and will take it's toll. To watch you break out of all that hard work into the life you'd both been working SO HARD FOR, well, it's a game changer to all of us sitting back wishing we could be there with you!!! Two things I'd "suggest", keep your batteries in the cooler until 10 to 15 minutes before you will need them. That should keep the core cool and longer lasting. the second thing, show more of you just going through your routines. Maybe plug a few gopro's into the house batteries and shoot the routine. You'd be surprised how many funny and sexy clips it will provide...
So it’s been many a month since I’ve left a comment or even watched one of your videos! What’s the first thing I see you wrenching on..that windless……boy do I remember that thing! I am so glad it’s still giving you good service! Miss you both, R from Sonoma!
I have a wooden grand banks 36, I used ablative bottom paint, it comes off which makes it hard for growth to stick, you can use a scrub brush to remove stuff as it grows on your boat, when you haul it out it comes off super easy with a scraper or light sanding for a new coat, no sanding for weeks to remove bottom paint, you could have dived down with a scrub brush and removed what you did in this video maybe
Loving the Dynamics Craziness and Beauty of the New crew member, Your daughter is gorgeous Ruth and brings so much energy ⚡ to Rediviva. It would be impossible to have a bad day with this beautiful soul around.. Loving the journey love from The Land Down Under 😘 😘 😘
PS..I misssssss 9.9 in the intro 😂😂😂😂One of the most memorable moments of the channel period.. The joy and excitement on Garrett's face was priceless 😘😘😘
Am I making this up but wasn't there talk about hooping the sails to the mast. I'm sure I recall ( at my age a bonus) a convo about this. Rope loops or even marine grade woods. Just came to mind as I enjoy your leisurely 5.5 knots....
Clogger is the perfect nickname..so similar to a toilet drain. Well Clogger, your opinion is relevant, say if the crew was surveying to determine how everyone feels about the crew. But they didn't, so for Pete's sake, put aside insulting remarks. They're south of the US cerebrating true hearted excitement brought by hard work fun, raw sense of humor, spontaneity, rocken-out fun. Place yourself for a moment on that deck and see for yourself if its not a hoot🎐
Every time i watch you guys hauling your anchor my elbow starts to hurt. i have a Simpson push button horizontal windlass that im replacing with a vertical maxwell. my old windlass will be perfect for rediviva, and i'd like to donate it to you. I can bring it with me when i return to san carlos. get in touch with me!
There are many irresistible things about Kinsey. She's a hoot!! Funny and sexy. We absolutely ❤ her! 💯😈 Thank you for another masterpiece, Ruthie!! We 💯❤️ love you to.
Hey Guys, excuse me if this was covered in previous episodes but where did you get your sails? Or what sail loft might you suggest? I have an old gaff sail that needs replacing on an 18' catboat. Am in Santa Cruz CA.
Was just down there. Kept my eye out for you guys. SO HOT! (Water too!) Can't imagine living with limited shade like that. You guys are troopers! Great episode. I agree, Kinsey is a great addition to the channel. Will be a sad loss.
OMG PLEASE be careful with those lithium batteries, and don't keep them where they can start a fire on your precious boat. Batteries on ebikes have started fires in NYC residential buildings.
I really enjoy your videos and to be honest I’m not a sailor don’t hate me, but I do have a JetSki lol but I live in southern Nevada in the desert. We don’t have no real water here but we have Lake Meade. It’ll be nice when you guys catch on a little more when you get like 100,000+ followers that way you can start doing some of the improvements that you want and maybe have a little bit better monetized income.
At 13:00. I have two old GoPros, a 3 and an 8. When the battery runs out on the 3, it quits. When it runs out on the 8, first video freezes while audio continues, and then it dies. Weirdness.
Mustard ;) Between editing and just how much I can put in a single episode, it ebbs and flows. We film 7 days a week and only one episode released in that week so it's just how it goes. I like to put the date on for reference though R
The date is very useful so we have a reference point. Otherwise confusing with change of climate etc. Wish more sailing channels had the date. @@SaltandTar
I watched your vids for three months before I realized you were saying in your video, "You're coming too". I thought you were saying, equally appropriately, "You're gonna puke."
