I’m glad it’s a blue state!!!’

Why do we feel everything must be set to music? It's distracting.

Great production!Thank you very much for this gorgeous story of a great human.

Thanks for this great film on an outstanding boatbuilder! RIP Ralph Stanley, far away from alpine Austria, Flo Linko

I spent 10 years building houses, cabinets, trim work, man do I admire wooden boats. I owned a classic Mackenzie dory for a while. We would some summers simply leave out in the backyard and admire the hunter green haul with varnished spruce railing and brass fittings.

boy is that music annoying, i have to stop watching it is driving me crazy

Its probably best kept as a vacation place. I am sure the people that are from there are very hush hush and very hard to get to know. It’s like that in places that have such low populations. Very clannish, and mean to those they really do not know. The best people you will meet are probably not from Maine, just like you. Not their fault, they really do not realize they are like that, it just happens. Besides it too cold for year round living if you are not from there.

The background music made this unwatchable. Never ever, under any circumstances should you use background music in a video.

Get rid of the music

I am from the Deer Isle/Penobscot region of Maine. This was absolutely lovely!

awesome

Wood is the best and the most beautiful ❤⛵️🛶⛴️

Building a house would bore me

I am directly related to Senator Smith through my grandfather. I just learned about her and am in awe.

scenery is indeed his other book

Boston guy I'd go to bar harbor and Acadia for coming, swimming, at this little beach there was a big board with the water temp, 51° in August, now that's a refreshing dip

I grew up on the coast south of Boston, it's amazing how high tide not only looks amazing but it kinda lifted my spirits, for me there's nothing like high tide. 🇺🇸

Possibly the first American mooning, which is definitely American like.

Boston born I've visited Maine often, bar harbor in summer is beautiful, the rocky coast, clear, cold waters, we'd go swimming and they had the water temp posted in big #'s, 51° in August, now that will wake you up in a hurry.

Has to be one of the most soothing and calming videos I have ever watched

My favorite place! Been on top 7 times and I wish I was still able but unfortunately age has ended my climbing career. I now experience it’s glory vicariously by following AT through hikers. From cloudless skies to impenetrable fog to being hailed on while crossing the Knife edge to aiding the ranger in a rescue that same day. Memories I will cherish for the rest of my life.

It's simply mind boggling how many top notch boat builders there were and are from Maine. It's so sad that we are losing many of them. I was fortunate and got to meet a few of them as I had worked several summers in Maine and two of them on Greenings Island Southwest Harbor. The island next to Great Cranberry where Ralph was from. I also spent some time with Chummy Rich and had Peter Kass and his crew at John Bay Boat build a beauty

Chummy has retired(yeah right) and sold the business to Rich Helmke who is in this video. I met Chummy back in the late 80's when a guy I was doing work for was looking to have a boat built. Chummy would of been the choice but he had to much in the works at the time. It was to be a wooden lobster style boat but used for pleasure. Boat ended up being built by John's Bay and was decked out with mahogany and the works. She was something special but I'm sure Chummy would of built just as fine or even better of a boat

Think George Bush didn't care about infinite confused with pixie sticks?

Almost every year of my childhood, my family would visit the Acadia National Park Visitor Center and watch this video that they showed for many years. My sisters and I would do the junior ranger program and take tons of hikes at the park exploring the tidepools and marshlands. Acadia is an absolute treasure, and this film (while quite old at this point!) is full of such love for it.

I visited Little Cranberry island about 23 years ago. Rented a cottage from Seus. Fixed your Nissan forklift.

Really love LL Bean especially the boots and moccasins! True craftsmanship! Thank you for telling his story.

Almost exactly as I remember sailing all of it back in the entire 70,s and early 80ks

Gracias por tan explicito y bien hecho documental de LL BEAN 👍

Beautiful 😘

Top job Mate !!!

Great video! Made it to the top 20 months ago. Thank you!

Sometimes I watch this video, it calms me down a lot. This is the best video of Acadia National Park seen from above! I love coming back again and again. I am waiting for new exciting filming.

Thank you boat gold ❤

Hi love Maine Lobster I eat as many as I can afford on my birthday I usually order a four pounder and I’ve always been able to eat the entire thing that’s perfect for me last year I tried to order a 5 pound but it couldn’t be gotten so I guess there wasn’t any available or that particular restaurant companyOnly deals with the smaller washers are chicks chicks

I love these outfitter stores, I hope someone can help me find a craftsman that can copy an old rucksack of my which is made of canvas and leather with a metal frame back support? Thanks for everyone's help and God Bless.

what a fantastic narration

It's a shame they're terrible now. Treat employees poorly, terrible warranty, hardly any knives except for Leathermans, anything you find their that's name brand you can usually find for 5 or 10 less at other hunting fishing stores. Had a pair of the slippers. It's very obvious they had a major seem failure and they wouldn't replace them

Looks like Maine is a paradise for outdoor activities, especially paddling. In the summer of course. 👍

Northern maine is destroying the woods wanting wealth and putting up solar panels their on their property there may not be any land left for food to grow u cant eat a solor panel its gone to pot and solar panels the earth will burn up these sre the last days one third of the earth is burnt up we are seeiny the red horse to come last the color of blood then the en cometh be ready to go at any time a thousand will die at thy right hand same on the left hand god save us all not just the queen of england.

I bet those coasts and beaches would be even more beautiful without all the houses jammed together lining them.

Awesome!!

Saw your son on video saying dibs productions

This makes me miss the old Maine!

How do you get a drone shot in a national park legally?

Well done.

HOW TRUE IS THIS? Maine it's a beautiful state, the coast all the way from Nova Scotia to Maine it's wild, different, and gorgeous, with all the wild geographic and weather conditions. The reason or reasons that I'm going to all this ordeal, is simply because of a movie that was located in the West coast, actually may happened in Maine coast, and I'm wondering if actually that it's any true on this breve description. How many of you saw a simple movie, that actually turn in a great story, and possible a piece of real history, question is where exactly happened, West or actually East coast? Rumors tha the 1980 "The Fog", a movie 🎬 realized by american filmmaker John Carpenter it seems like the original action or shipwreck as referral, it happened in the coast of Maine, anywhere between Nova Scotia and Maine. This coast line is well known for intense fogs, the boat coming from an European country that there's no record what so ever, approached the coast line in a terrible fog night, but the difference that was no knowledge about this incoming vessel, or no knowledge about gold, or black plague, most possible a boat full of immigrants running away from nothing good, in hope of better life. It's true that the first Europeans or white people to approached the North East coast was the Vikings, many art facts founded along this coast locations, also it's known that most likely the second white folks to reach East coast was actually portuguese vessels, and this is before Columbus stepped foot on American land, that was a portuguese monument pattern of discoveries with inscriptions which had the Portuguese coat of arms and year in front of Rhode Island, unfortunately was removed and thrown to the bottom of the ocean by second interests that possibly came from its Spanish neighbors, to not created conflicts, and not to loose the fame and glory. But the point of this is that for a long time many boats arrived from European soil, and many unknown. True or not, some how from the middle of the dark fog, they spotted a small inland fire, but without any bad intentions like The Fog movie story portrays, the crash on the rocks was inevitable. Most likely someone saw something, but probably never proper reported, with an aggressive ocean and extremely cold waters, the chances for survival would be close to zero. But people talks, and real or fake stories they go from mouth to mouth, ask yourself how many humans they crossed from the East coast to the West coast, and vice versa, there's a large possibility that the story travel to West like so many immigrants did, if something really happened, most possible it will be forever in the bottom of the ocean like so many missing vessels.

I remember as a kid my dad used to take us to the coast of Maine to dig clams. Ohh, the good old Days.
