I've got to admit based on several other sail life style channels I've seen, I thought I would unsubscribe from this channel when the boat build was done, but this channel seems to offer a much richer content than typical, I'm really enjoying the content. Keep up the good work please!
Agree. I like how they donât over glamorize sailing, and arenât turning it into a scripted reality show.
what, you mean you dont like boobs and alcohol everywhere with about 30sec of sailing?
@@maxlundgren3482 and we're not getting a bunch of bikinni clickbait in the channel either, very family friendly...
I know absolutely nothing about sailing but could watch your films all day they are amazing ,
You do a damn fine job with the sailing videos.
Its not the winch, it is the wench.. ha ha ha. Thanks for sharing your adventure, happy sailing. Charles
Thanks for showing us a bit of Ireland. I think I enjoy your postings better now, when you are sailing. Fair winds
This video is a great mix of boat work and sailing life. Ava's video about her shopping trip was great fun!
Don't worry about people just watching boat work, others have started with rebuilding their boats - Uma, Atticus, Evans, Curiosity etc and then went sailing. They didn't lose viewers, neither will you.
Being Irish itâs great to see you guys sailing here and hearing what you have to say about the place. Really enjoying the videos. Well done.
Mads and Ava, sitting watching your adventures and Irish countryside, sipping my Jack Daniels No7 and scanning google earth of the Irish coast. What more can one wish for....braving winter in Aus.
Another great video, I was attracted to this channel for the DIY boat stuff but it is really entertaining following you on cruise, with Ava solo expeditions and all đ Fair winds to you !
Anyplace with all those paint colors MUST be home to happy smiling people. Love it.
OMG!đČ Mads actually left Athena beyond visual range for a considerable amount of time.đ This episode is starting to get a sailing life vibe (& not just boat work vibe). You should do more of these type of episodes, and show more of the interesting parts of the places you visit has to offer like this distillery & the town itself. Afterall, it's why people sail to these places, correct? Oh that, and to do boat maintenance in exotic places.đ
I am sure Mads has a CCTV camera that he can connect to on his mobile ;-)

Nice to see Ireland, provides a good contrast to majority of sailing channels that tend to be in the Bahamas, Med, Central America, Pacific.
Another lovely video guys and another legendary tour by Ava. You're a pro. Thank you and sail safe until next week
You two are doing a great job. Love the DIY solutions and Ava's cool videos on sites where you go is great too. We are going to use your template for some of our videos in the future. Thanks.
Beautiful video! We really enjoyed the tour. (The whiskey looked amazing!) đđđđđđđđđ
Great job Ava! I figured when the DIY portion was complete I would move on but I find your travel updates very interesting so thanks for sharing!
Mads, I'm so happy to see you made it to Kinsale. Old Head was my family's homestead for hundreds of years until the 90s when it was sold as a golf course. Everything south of the Bandon is still considered Courcy Country today. I saw Paragon also made it there. I'm a loooong time follower of your channel and am very happy to see your dreams and hard work have all paid off.
I enjoyed the windy walk. Thanks for sharing. See you!
Crookhaven highly recommended for a stopover. Stunningly beautiful and sheltered, if isolated
Like the history yâall give on the places you visit.
Really digging the new video and music formate...nicely done.
Ahhhh, the Redbreast 12 is phenomenal. Nice easy drinker with enough flavor to keep it interesting but not overpowering. Cheers!
Enjoy West Cork guys and the islands, donât forget Cape Clear island, Schull and of course our beautiful Fastnet Light house â€ïžâ”ïž
Not to mention the Bakery in Schull does a very nice Turnover Loaf
@@johnciall I bet Ava she knew that before they left. đ
Thanks for sharing your life with everyone
Stay safe.
We say that youâll get all four seasons in one day, that wonderful đźđȘ donât forget to say hi to all you meet. đ
I would not "fix" the outhaul being too long: it's a classic instance of an item of running rigging where almost all the wear is concentrated in one (or a few) localities. It greatly extends the life of such items if they start overlong, and then the "nip" can regularly be "freshened" (the location of the wear moved to an unworn portion of the line) by shortening the line from the end where it terminates.
You do not need to make every learning error by your lovely wife, part of your video. Lighten up. PBH
lol Jack & Daniel's. You weren't lying about not being a frequent drinker of spirits!
Love watching Athena and your travels đ
Lovely vlog, as always. Ireland is a country on my bucket list ⊠youâve convinced me why! Thanks, guys ⊠đđœđŻđđ
just found your adventures, thanks for giving me a vicarious personal adventure through my laptop! Definately Ireland spells Whiskey with and E ...
The differences include spelling, as you've no doubt found out! Whisky vs. Whiskey. Thanks for your great videos!
A friend shared this with me. Iâm American and I usually have to watch British and even some American channels with cc. You (both of you) speak English so clearly that I didnât need subtitles đđđ
Loved this Video! nice mix of exploring, informative sightseeing and a hint of DIY/repairs - roll on next Sunday :)
Mads - I've been a subscriber for years and yours is one of my two favorite channels. A big part of the reason for that is that I think you do a great job!! I just want you to know that I think Ava is really coming up to speed as an equal. I like her sense of humor, her filming, her clear speech, and she's just fun to watch and listen to. I watch a number of "couples: videos and both couples doing a great job with the videos seems to be a key to success. Keep it up and, as always, thanks!!
Iâve also been a subscriber for year but think Iâm going to have to stop watching because of Ava. While she seems nice I have watched this channel for sailing and refit not watching her randomly talk about weather, her clothes, ferns, grocery stores, etc.
Ava is great! I really enjoyed her vlog. It's interesting to see new places through her eyes.
Another great video keep safe
with whisky (or wine), all that really matters is if you like it, or not! đ
Jameson is definitely a favourite of mine.
While the lack of glorious sanding has me worried about Mads, you guys are producing interesting non-DYI videos!
Eva, youâre doing a kickass jobđWay to go Mads throwing Eva under the bus.
Mads, a tip for your whiskey. Keep it in the freezer, it is much easier to drink, less heat in the mouth and more in the belly.
Certainly enjoyed seeing more of the local area. It's been all too rare to get much of a sense of the local communities where people are stopping. Thanks!
WOW! The "To Do" bulkhead was completely bare. Don't think I have seen that before.
Cool images of little ferns growing in crevices of rock walls and stunted trees are just fine. Don't stop on account of me.
And now what do you do with that giant spinach leaf? Salad? Steamed? Or Boil the hell out of it as my mother used to do with all vegetables? If they weren't grey they weren't done.
Great to see you doing justice to the joys of Ireland and West Cork.
Watching you guys living your best lives makes me smile.
Ava, your windswept hair looked fantastic. So not bringing a tieback was a good thing.
It is just one of those things in my experience, if you use your boat stuff breaks. Best wishes for more happy DIY fun in exotic locations , also called cruising by some people.
You both are so great together. Happy for you both that you found each other.
Jameson Black Barrel would be a good addition to the drinks cupboard! Nice episode
Red Breast is one of my favorites. Good choice. Last time I was at Middleton I picked up a bottle of Green Spot; itâs fantastic!
My wife and I enjoy so much to watch your videos..your sense of humor and attention to the details sets you apart from the other sailing channels..
Glad to see you are enjoying Ireland and our "soft" weather. It has been a miserable summer but hey, it's Ireland.
I thoroughly enjoyed the sailing format it's fun to watch you guys wonder about. Thanks
Yea I agree it was the winch lol if you were in training it sounds like instructor fail not student lol have fun and enjoy it needed new line anyway
I knew if I hung around this corner long enough, you guys would drive by.
đ
Your honest opinions on the various places, the costs and benefits is very good and useful info for those who sail in your wake. Thank you.
Great to see the downs as well as the ups of liveaboard lifestyle and the little trip hazards it throws you like the power of an electric winch to do damage!! Luckily the line acted as a fuse and no serious harm done.
Have fun and keep it real
My father is Derry (not Jerry) the farmer in Kinsale who brought you to Cork to get rope. He couldn't bring you oil the next morning as he had offered because my mother tested positive for covid so they both had to isolate; he tried to ring you a few times to tell you but he couldn't connect. I hope you will see this message!!
Great vid đđœ
Nice video...you guys are doing fine in the presentation of sail travel and local exploration...while not a DIY video, your content is great.
Well you certainly selected two of my favorite Irish whiskies. Both are excellent. And while the liquid sunshine stopped falling from the sky, you now have two bottles of pure Irish liquid sunshine. Thank you Ava for the walking tour of Kinsale. Thank you both for the relaxing Sunday afternoon video.
Yes indeed. Redbreast 12 is so very tasty!!!
For a bit of US nostalgia are you going to Baltimore, County Cork. Great update 2xđ
Sorry Mads you failed!
The difference between Irish and all other whisky is the "e". Irish is spelled "Whiskey".
Thanks for not missing beautiful Kinsale, I knew you'd enjoy it.
Excellent transition into sailing from DYI. Keep it up, you two rock!
Be sure to check out crook haven bay and go diving around there and enjoy some lobster. Fastnet rock is also on your way back or head around mizen head. If you go around have a hiking day in the mountains.
I stayed at Kinsale Yacht Club as a kid. A very welcoming community and a lovely town. Thanks for taking me back
Beautiful towns you showed us. Thanks for that!
I like the way you detail your explanations. Really clarity. Thanks for sharing Mike
Ireland always draws visitors in to wanting to stay longer. I glad you guys got a chance to enjoy some of their hospitality. Great video :) loved the walk and the boat talk. :)
Mads & Ava, you guys have made a great transition from DIY to Travel Vlog + some DIY + some sailing. It's great, please keep it up! I'm enjoying the details on how to plan, chart, and operate -- just like you've done in this one.
Love the videos, great mix of diy, sailing and travel.
Another great video
Thank you for letting us tag along.
I'm glad to see you let the Eva out to hunt in her natural environment.
Nice episode- good mix of sailing, boat jobs and baby ferns!
Love the travel vlogs! Ava's tours are awesome too đ
Good job you guys! Really Really enjoy your videos!
You guys are still the masters of video, I like it a lot. đ
Great vid.
Hi , a nice place Ireland and glad to see it is all going ok . Take care and fair winds .
Nice episode.
Lovely travelogue đđ
You guys are great at travel vlogs. i look forward to your many installments to come.
At 10:16: This is not just some random baby tree, it's an olive tree from much further south. They can survive -5C for a few weeks and -10°C for a day or two but usually they only grow outside in Mediterranean climates where there's no freezing during winter. It is definitely the most northernly all-year-round-outside olive tree I've ever noticed.
Great adventures
Great episode beautiful place.. I love where you guys are... Thanks again for sharing your lives with us grateful an Fare winds and following sea's guy's âđŒđđâŁïž
I did the same tour some years ago and recall that they pronounced Jameson as Jimison with almost no emphasis on the second "i". Great video and the story gets even better. Thanks.
Almost 4th of July, I'm packing my seabag great video always enjoy.
Enjoyed your impressions of just moving through a new place ie tiny ferns. I would say your move from all DIY to travel, sailing and DIY is looking good.
Rampant alcohalism ? I thought that is why some day I will buy a cruiser sailboat !! LOL ! Yes yes and DIYing also !
I'm also not a spirits drinker, but I have very fond memories of visiting a rum distillery in Jamaica. The process, equipment, and tastings were just a great experience.
lol, I've been drinking Redbreast for ~30 years, love it and your channel. Thanks
Thanks to Ava for the interesting walking tour.
Hello Mats, and greetings from Austria! I really like your channel, and how accurate you do your refits and projects. In this video something came up, which I wanted to suggest to add. Being an interior architect, and seeing Ava cooking at the cooktop, I thought that maybe it would be good to add a plexiglass (or something else) between the navigation desk and the stove to prevent possible accidents, like spilling liquids over the screen, or splashes from cooking, etc. I think also a half height barrier would be functional. I know the height of the screen backside along the cooktop has already a reasonable height, but experience teached me otherwise. :) All the best, and keep up your good work. Thank you.
Great news on the sea sickness!
15:17 easy fix is to chop off the loose strands, use some fishing line to wrap around and then tape some textile tape around it at an angle after which you need to sow the whole thing a few times to make sure it stays together. All the strength is in the core, but this makes sure the line doesn't go off fully and it won't snag either. It will get you through and it's easy to perform even in rough sea, faster than taking it all off.
Public transportation allows me to really be a tourist, instead of concentrating on who's going to drive into me. đ
I'd love to take a long trip stopping each night to sample the local Scotch and Irish distilleries and smoked salmon every night.
I remember the funny weather from my last visit to Ireland (Arklow) in 1979. "Nice breeze, isn't it?" or even "Nice Rain, isn't it?" people would say.....
Jameson is lovely in Irish coffee!
Best wishes
Great storyline and production quality was very good. I think you've found a very good balance of sailing, boat maintenance / projects and destination travelogues. Lot to like here...love Ava's sense of humour (and Mads too). 'Back on the road' metaphor seems weird though đ€
