How to renovate a boateau.

married maths... 'now you have the boat i can get whatever i want'! well played Anna .. well played😀

I don't think Phillip could smile any wider!! He looks so very happy and I am happy for you both. ❤

Oh Philipp. You won the battle against a grand strategist who has already won the war.

The two happiest days for a boat owner: the day you buy it and the day you sell it !

If you’re supporting the channel, does that mean that they don’t have the right to pay for a vacation, their cost of living, the children’s extracurricular activities, etc.? If they bought a boat, it’s because they are fortunate to make enough to both renovate the chateau AND buy a boat. Kudos to Philip and Anna!! My favorite episodes are when Anna makes wallpaper, color schemes and room designs are decided, and when we get a tour if various parts of the chateau.

I lived on a sailboat with my husband for over a year. Then moved off and had kids who loved learning how to sail. A very blessed time of my life. Owning a boat is expensive. Especially the upkeep. But you guys handled renovating a Chateau, so I think you can handle this. Save yourself much grief and get sailing lessons for the whole family. Remember safety first. So keep the hatch closed at all times to avoid injury. It will feel so much better when you have the main sail up, sailing close to the wind and putting the sloop on her ear. This is a great idea since you live so close to the coast. Beautiful sloop. Congratulations.

Congrats. I’m sure all the practice Philip has had in measuring all the things for the chateau will naturally translate to impeccable charting and navigation. Next up, Philip I believe you need a motorcycle! Bon Voyage!

You guys have worked so hard on this channel & the Chateau-bringing people all over the world entertainment, education, and joy. It's great to see you guys getting to make such a wonderful purchase for your family. Cheers & wishing you all many happy adventures on your new boat!

“How to Buy A Boat Without Killing Your Partner” Congrats! 🍾 I hope there’s a marina slip near the chateau to park it.

Very happy for you both and cheers to another dream of Phillip's becoming reality. Obviously you Anna are the best thing that ever happened to Phillip. Congrats.

Great news….Philip deserves it and you will all enjoy it. He looks like a little boy with his first bike. So happy.

How to renovate a boateau

So sweet how you both became like teenage lovers at the start of a big adventure. It’s beautiful to see the burst of youthful energy this boat project has bought to your relationship.

Buying a yacht is merely the beginning of a great and very costly adventure. Oh my, I recall mooring fees, slipping fees, electrolysis issues, painting, varnishing, motor issues, bilge pump issues, sail issues, mould issues, so very much hard work, ….. and so much beauty. 🇦🇺

“I think we need a green sofa.” Work it, Anna! Work it! 😉

What a beauty little boat!!. Congratulations! When I was in 9th grade, 13/14, in St. Thomas, USVI, we lived on a boat, The Noah's Ark, and my sister and I had bunks in the bow in the foc'sle. I was lucky enough to have the bottom bunk and slept just below the waterline. So I fell asleep and woke up to the sound of gentle waves slapping against the hull, Lying in bed, I could look up thru the open hatch and see the stars rocking back and forth in the sky. Sometimes the moon would shine right down the ladder and wiggle a puddle of white light back and forth across the floor. Every morning, there was a dirty old greasy pelican who came and sat on top of the foc'sle hatch to eat the fish in its beak pouch, wiggling furiously, still alive. Then the pelican would cough it up, tossing it into the air and catching it and happily munch, occasionally dropping fresh pieces of fish down the ladder and onto me!! I would scream and get so mad and whack at it with my pillow! I'll never forget looking up at the pelican! Every morning, without fail! It was fun! I wish such wonderful memories for your girls, too. All four of us took the dingy into the West India dock where we tied up and hiked up the hill to Antilles School, which still exists! So much fun. So many great memories. Two boys, two girls, a cat, a dog, a parakeet and parents! My dad built a cat box off the stern with a slot in the back of the floor and we just pushed the kitty poops thru it! A baracuda who lived under the stern, named Gil Evans after the jazz great, ate the kitty poops and got very big, long, and quite fat, but my mom fed it all the dinner scraps as well. It was the happiest baracuda you ever saw and never hurt us when we went diving and swimming off the boat. If we were naughty, we were pushed overboard and no mercy was given! My mother was a pirate wench! And my father? Har! Har! Har!

So thrilled for Phillip, and anyone who has a long held dream, when a plan all comes together ❤

I have heard the old saying"The best day of your life is the day you buy a boat..and the day you sell it"I hope that does not end up the saying for you ..We are not surprised by this purchase..it has been a long time coming..ENJOY THE RIDE.."OR SAIL", your family has earned the enjoyment it should bring,that will give you all memories of times spent together..Congratulations..it is a beauty!

You guys are actually a love story and I believe many of us adore you both.

Anna being so excited for the hotel was so wholesome, and Philippe pointing out the fresh cut flowers like they do for guests, ha! Really cute stuff. It's fun to be rooting for ye from afar. Congrats on the boat!

I’m so happy for you. I think you’re doing this at a perfect time in your life. The girls will learn to sail, you’ll have lovely holidays together and Phillip will never be left saying “I always wanted a boat”. Plus Anna now has carte blanche for what she wants for ever!!

YEAAAA!!!! My dad used to sail, it's so special. He would say with a motor boat you are heading to a destination, with a sailboat it IS the destination. 💙⛵

I'm so happy for you both. Hard work pays off! Happy sailing.

Congrats! Phillip was just like me. I bought a boat on my wife's birthday for me. Thought I was dead, but 13 years later she loves the boat.

I could not be happier for Philip !!!! Ear. After year, he worked on the boss, and she finally gave in.. I have never seen him smile so much in any previous video. What a fun surprise this Sunday has brought all of your viewers. Congratulations Philip you finally have your dream.

It was so easy to feel your joy. Blessings to you and yours for safe travels and new adventures.

I love it when your partner surprises and supports you. You two are a lovely match. ❤

I liked when you filmed your trip on the boat you rented. Im very happy for you. 🎉

So happy for you both , especially for Phillip to get a sail boat finally! Enjoy it all of you, family and friends. Happy sailing , soon, Maureen.

Aaaaaaaw, look at Philip’s face. Like a kid at Christmas! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Anna - you’re equally wonderful for indulging this dream. So happy for you all xxxx

Wow! That moment with the champagne made me quite emotional, congratulations, cheers and here's to many happy sailing adventures.

Congrats on your trip to Stockholm(known as "The Venice Of The North")...we have stayed at "ETT HEM" and have been to Stockholm archipelago a dozen times...your yacht looks amazing and I am sure Anna will cook some amazing dinners and the daughters will have a BLAST....oh, and Phillip is in heaven.....it's nice to see how happy both of you are.....Bon Voyage....

My favourite (and nearly the best) Chateau channel just got a lot more exiting !! Sailing it’s terrific news. Great video.

Anna - you are such a great sport and such a supportive wife. Love you

Philip, Anna is an absolute delight in every way😍. I 🩷 her sunny, delightful, hardworking personality, a great Mom too😍

✨️🥂🍾 Congratulations, Philipp and Anna, on your new boat and lifestyle. May you be blessed wirh many happy and safe travels. 🎉

Congratulations. I love sailing. My father lived on a sail boat for over 10 yrs. I have so many fond memories with him out on the water. If I could get my son to sleep as a baby he would have me bring him down to the boat and it would rock him starlight to sleep. My sons called him Grandpa Hook.

I had a feeling you bought a boat. It’s all he’s wanted for ages. Congratulations 🎉! 💖🌷

Delighted for you! Amazing times ahead x

Yay...so happy for Phillip!!! Many hours of family fun ahead. Phillips excitement is contagious!

He never needs to ask you if you love him that’s for sure. I hope you are all going to be very happy and safe👏👏🤞🤞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you so much for inviting us on your trip to Swedenand on the beautiful sail boat! Good sailors luck! Bon voyage😂

Oh how exciting! My dad had a sailboat many years ago that we used to sail on the Hudson River in NY state. Lots of great memories. There is something so special about being out on the river that has stayed with me for all these years. My dad passed away many years ago, and I never bought a boat, but I do enjoy walking down by the beautiful Hudson River and watching the sailboats majestically glide by. Its wonderful to see families out there enjoying the beautiful scenery along this magnificent waterway.

How wonderful, so exciting. This is what a marriage is, creating treasured memories and supporting each other's dreams and interests. Congratulations on your next adventure.

Congratulations! Follow your dreams no matter how crazy they may seem to others.

So, I love the fact that Anna has bought the “I now get whatever I want card”. But seriously … Am I to understand that you will be sailing the boat back to France at this time? And I have never seen anyone look so happy as Philipp looks at this moment. Absotively. I rating with happiness. Bless!

Congratulations, Philip! You did it! I knew the sailing holidays you did with the family would create good memories for Anna, and it's those that seal the deal. Great to see Anna is as happy as you. You ought to be a diplomat. She's a lovely boat. Fair winds and following seas to you all.

For those of us that have been married forever, it’s called “compromise”. and then, trust. I’ll bet that you are going to enjoy it.

Congrats! Yall deserve it! Thanks for taking us along! Enjoy!

Had been awaiting this moment, Capitano Philipp! Bravissimo! Many happy (and safe) voyages to you, Anna, and the family. PS:The soundtrack (music) on this vlog is simply marvelous.

Congratulations on your new boat. May you have many happy memories in it. Love you channel.

....Philipp, "You can have a green sofa on the boat Anna!"

Chateau, wife, kids, garden, waste pipes and now a boat - living the dream.

Here’s to all your amazing adventure. Thanks for taking us along for the journey. Cheers 😁🥂🍾🌟❤️⛵️

Congratulations im so happy for you

I have a Bristol 40, live on it for nearly 7 years, still in ❤️⚓️🙏 best of luck !

What a beautiful and truly talented wife you found. Cherish her because she deserves it especially her beautiful sincere eyes. As an Italian don't forget it because life is short and don't know what tomorrow may bring. Thanks for allowing our family to be part of your once in a lifetime adventures.

I’m sure you know what the two best days with a boat are, don’t you. The time in-between is tending to the hole in the water you toss money into! Enjoy your boat, congratulations!

This makes me ridiculously happy, and emotional 🥹 Looking forward to all sailing related videos !

As a swede, this video just made me smile the biggest smile 😃 I've been following your journey for maybe 2years now and I love seeing you not only be in Sweden, but also see you finally get that boat,haha!😂

Your next happiest day will be when you sell it.😉😂

I couldn't be happier for you. You look like you were meant to be sailors. Two years ago I bought a 35' sailboat having never ever sailed before. I was determined to love it and we do. Next week we leave for a 4 month sail in British Columbia. Our first big trip! Life is to be lived!

This is great. I have followed your channel for a fre years and now you go and get yourself a Arcona 400. I have one myself located in the southern part of Sweden. Welcome to the family!

"Sporty" sailing makes me smile. That's a whole other thing. A whole separate set of sails. Maybe the girls will become racing sailers. It's all good fun either way. I big comfortable boat for family is the perfect way to start. I made sails for the America's Cup. Hope you have a great set with a spinnaker. Enjoy !

Congratulations you two. What amazing adventures you'll have. 🥳

Congratulations! My parents did something like this 60 years ago; they sold everything they owned, packed the necessities including my little brother and I (we were 5 & 7,) and headed from Los Angeles to Stockholm, where we completed purchase of our sloop and then to dry dock in Tomrafjord, Norway. It was a spectacular childhood. I'm sure your girls will thoroughly enjoy their adventures with you two.

The music selection in this video was wonderful. It's always so perfect, but something about this video's music during the Stockholm walk-about in particular made me smile.

Reminds me of the 1960s when my Father had a 6 berth yacht and we sailed all over Europe, still love my Breton tops . Love ❤️ 🇬🇧 your daughters will make the best memories.

So happy for you two! After all the continual work you have done at the chateau, not to forget raising your amazing children, what better than to have this new escape into nature. I have a caravan trailer as my escape. It is absolutely essential to my well being in these current complicated times we live in. I really look forward to your new adventures. Looks to be a beautiful vessel and I can't wait to see what you will name it, congratulations!

Did Philip say something about deck shoes last week? How exciting, enjoy. 🎉🎉

OMG! The JOY (from both of you) is so contagious! You have made my day! 👯

Wonderful! What a gorgeous design! Beamy but sleek - great cockpit space, comfortable saloon. Huge congratulations from a fellow sailor.

I can't believe it!!! The dream became a reality!! So exited to see you sailing and traveling with the family!

Seeing the joy on both of your faces was very contagious, I don't think I've smiled that big in a while! Congratulations on this new adventure! Will the boat live in Sweden? If so, such an amazing place to have as another "home"!

Congrats! Love life and live it the best way you can!

His joy is full! Great to see. What a stunning place to sail too.

Hope to see you around do I live in Sweden not far from where you are having your boat. Have a great week, see you next Sunday. ❣️🥰

I love boating, we used to have a cruiser boat, it’s our cabin on the water during summer. It was very convenient during COVID too, but we decided to sale in 2022. Hard to maintain, as if you have a second house. Enjoy your boat and good luck to you both.

Congratulations! Very happy for you and looking forward to your shared adventures. Be safe and enjoy!!!

Hi Philip and Anna, I am not sure if you had life jackets on under your jackets. However, I just wanted to caution you. Please wear life jackets at all times whenever you are on the boat. The water can be very unpredictable and things can go wrong very fast. It's always best that you wear a life jacket at all times.

Congratulations All!!

Stockholm, Venice of the north because of all the islands.Congrats and enjoy the boat, a dream come true❤

I am so happy for you and your family!! And the sheer joy on Phillipp’s face is just so beautiful!! But Anna, you look every bit as happy and excited!! He talked you into the Chateau and Ziggy and both have been incredible blessings to your family and this boat will be as well!! Congratulations!!

Congratulations! Now you have to finish your bedroom suite Philip!

I just realized I'm sitting here grinning from ear to ear like an idiot 😁LOL.... I am so so happy for you guys❤

Congratulations you two! What a wonderful future adventure. I don't think I've seen Philip smile so much in one episode. This is the way to live life, if you can!!

So happy for Phillip!! Sailing as a family is so so special! Anna you have the hard job of provisioning but your excellent organizational skills will be so helpful! Congrats!!!

How wonderful! I hope you have many happy years sailing together!

I’m SO SO HAPPY for you Phillip CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 Life is too short not to follow your dreams, now for that DONKEY you might need 2 so they don’t get lonely 😂💕🇦🇺💕

Boats are money pits. If you are going to bring it back with you and use it a lot and get your money’s worth out of it that’s fine but unless you live on the water they sit most of the time and cost money to store and maintain. Good luck!

Why doesn't this surprise me!?

Cheers!!

I love how getting persuaded into a big adventure makes you glow, Anna! I am stunned at the big stretch, but it is helping me see how safe I have been playing! Bon voyage on this next tack. And thank you enormously!

Grattis och skål! Välkomna till Sverige 😀🤗Helene & Lennart

CONGRATULATIONS! What a surprise !

Aah Phillip, so you DID buy a sailboat!! Congratulations to you both. Anna figured it out very quickly - now she’s got you by the short & curlies FOR LIFE! 😅😉🥂

Congrats on the boat! ⛵️

Congratulations on the boat….exciting adventure ahead. You both looked so happy, especially, Phillip, it was contagious!
