Sailor Barry & Hailly Season 2 is HERE!
And this is the crazy story of how we got Thunder Child!
/ wildapostate - Barry
/ haillymartintattoos - Hailly
The kindness of people never ceases to amaze me and Barry and Hailey defiantly are the right custodians of such a fine vessel
Thank you so much for saying.
I got to say this is your best episode to date not just because of the content, but of the production values of its creation, the editing, the camera work, the lighting, what a great vibe I got from this episode, I believe you two have really grown into your rolls in front of the camera, it was a pleasurer and a joy to watch, thank you for posting.
Thank you! Definitely really felt something special with this. I do think this is my favourite episode also! 🙏
@@SailorBarryBest way for you to buy the boat you want is to buy XRP the new reserve digital currency.
You will be very very well off even if you buy 200 for 100 bucks
Lovely to see this couple pass their boat on ,very generous of them
Thunder child is in great hands and will be well looked after
Honoured to be the caretaker of such a fine vessel.
@@SailorBarry and looking forward to watching you restore her
Congratulations on acquiring Thunder Child and I wish you many safe and amazing adventures. Hope to see you guys out there someday. 😊
Thank you!! Merry Christmas 🎄
I watch every episode, beginning with Perihelion. Somehow I missed your decision on what to do with her. But I LOVED watching the resurrection/transformation of Dagon. She is beautiful and I look forward to seeing her engine running and more projects on her underway. BUT NOW! Congratulations on Thunder Child! Good things happen to good people and how amazing is it that John & Viv would make your dreams come true! I really can't wait to see what you do with Thunder Child. JUST PLEASE...keep us updated on Dagon and Perihelion too. Who would have guessed that Sailor Barry would one day own his own FLEET of wooden sailing boats!
Perihelion is sitting safe at the docks getting worked on occasionally. We’ve made massive strides but you’re right. Definitely need to do an update! Thanks for following along. I’ve sold Dagon to my friend Nathan. But we’re still all working on Dagon together. And Nathan has really taken the boat further since he purchased it.
You sold Dagon???
@@drjmedders7095 indeed. Owning two 40 foot boats is not a reasonable thing to do. And Nathan is a wooden boat shipwright. A great fit. We just signed the deal this week.
@@SailorBarry Every bit of this is "icing on the cake!" You get a little bit from selling Dagon--that helps. Nathan is a great owner for Dagon -- AND -- you still get to participate and help complete the work on her. A triple-win!
Can't wait for an update on Perihelion. I absolutely love that boat. It looks like Thunder Child needs a lot of work. And I can't wait to see you get started on her.
Congratulations. What wonderful people john and Viv are. How much they love thunder child that they went out of their way to find the right owner. They took the time to sail with you, show you the ins and out of her. That's freaking awesome.You dont see that often. Most just want the cash and run.
You guys really lucked out on this one..
Merry christmas guys.❤
John and Vivian are amazing for al those reasons. Feeling very lucky. Merry Christmas my friend!
Barry congratulations on a fantastic new boat! Sadly that's the way boats always go. We make plans for upgrades and projects and we work to get them done but alas fate usually has another plan. You guys were destined to find one another and as so often happens a great boat falls into your lap. That doesn't mean there won't be problems or projects to do but you'll work through it. Finally an inboard diesel and an auto helm makes life aboard so much easier. You can helm when you want but don't have to.
Thank you kindly!! Dagon found its perfect forever home. Almost immediately. Which shows how perfectly this all came together
Congrats to your new boat, Barry! I wish you, Hailly and your Thunder Child the best of luck , along with wonderful holidays a magical new year. 🫂
Same to you!
I just happened upon your video with your new boat boat. I was so intrigued with your sincerity and humility and in your presentation of your video. I'm looking forward to to watching all of your videos. Thank you so much. I wish you fairwinds and calm seas in you're adventures. Good luck to you both.
Thank you. I think my video style is finally starting to match my personality and intent with the videos more. This video is doing well, must have done something right! Thanks for the encouragement
Wow, what a story!! The previous owners are amazing for making it work that you get Thunder Child. Amazing journey and we all look forward to watching the adventure.
Our pleasure!
Just knock me over as the stars were alined for the four of you . Great gob-smacks .
Fair winds .
Will be so looking forward to the next clip .

Pop a few brewskyie.
Thanks mate!!
Barry congratulations on the new boat!! As soon as I saw her stern come into view I knew she was an Atkins design. I worked on Arabella in MA (Acorn to Arabella on YT) so I was very familiar with her lines. Fair winds and seas and I look forward to your adventures. Bill from Boston.
Amazing. I remember you from the show and have followed that boats journey from the beginning. Feeling blessed to have a similar vessel, without having to build it from absolute scratch. Thanks for commenting, watching and all that good stuff.
48:10 Great vid guy’s! John & Vivian r awesome! Glad y’all r planning another sailing journey with them! Can’t wait 4 that vid! Also, awesome ur buddy could buy Dagon! Winners all around! 👍❤️
Thanks!!🙏
She's a beautiful Vessel Barry, little bittersweet for them, but man, you must be over the Moon! Merry Christmas to you and Hailly, and hey, Fair Winds And Following Seas to you both! Enjoy!
So true. Absolutely so happy with this vessel. Got it months ago now and am happier now with it than ever.
Congratulations Barry! Awesome boat! You may remember me from a previous livestream where I was chatting from my other channel, KrokPotBroccoli. Well, I have my free Tahiti Ketch, and restoration is underway!
Hell yes. Do you have any social media for it?
@@SailorBarry Just this CZcams channel for now.
Congratulations to you, Barry! That is an epic boat you got to be a steward of! Have fun and fair winds!
Thanks 👍
Such an unbelievable episode, John and Vivian are so wonderful, such a remarkable couple, we are praying for their inspirational allowance to continue in the future aboard this truly beautiful Atkins ketch. Wish you safe Harbors ahead and a Happy New Year aboard Thunder Child!
Happy new year indeed! Thanks so much!! Cheers!
Congratulations Barry and Hayley !! One day I hope to come and visit , fair winds ..
Thanks mate!!
Congratulations it couldn't have gone to a better person.. so happy for you excited to see what you have planned for this beautiful boat.
Thank you so much!!
What a great twist of fate. Very glad for you two. I love keeping up with your adventures and wish you the best.
Thanks so much!
Great to see that you have a new boat and a wonderful chance to sail her for years to come. A truly beautiful boat.
Already put 1000nm under her keel since getting her :)
What a beautiful boat! Congratulations to you both!
Thank you very much!
Congrts you two. Happy to see you get a boat you love and the previous owner see the love you have for the traditional bosts.
Was meant to be :)
Glad you are back at it. Great story and circumstance, congrats with the new boat.
Woo! Thank you so much. I’m blown away by her still. Beautiful boat!
Immediately subscribed; y'all are totally my kinda people and Thunder Child is a gorgeous find. Watching your follow up episode next!
Ha, you mentioned The Pride of Baltimore. I was aboard TeVega now called DEVA and our second mate was engaged to get married to the captain of The Pride of Baltimore. We had lunch with them twice in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and were the last to see the boat before it went down. What a beautiful ship! Your new boat is very nice looking as well. John and Vivian were so kind to give you this opportunity. What a great story. Were they the original owners and builders of this vessel?
The boat was built two years before John got it, the original builder is alive and well on saltspring island and I’d like to meet them!
Awesome buddy ! Great episode and what a fine ship.
Thanks a ton!
Magnificent vessel... It is so refreshing to see owners of these yachts not bastardizing them to try to make them modern...
Absolutely
That's so awesome. Can't wait to see what yall do to it. Congratulations
Thank you!!
Wow! So happy for you two. ❤ I look forward to follow you and your new boat. 👍👍
Good luck in restoring the new boat! Great video!
Thank you so very much! Cheers!!!🥂

Welcome aboard!
that's so amazing! congratulations! that's so big man ENJOY!
We love your story and so look forward to all your videos! Merry Christmas and good luck in the new year! Walt & Joyce in Ohio (US)
Thank you both so much! ❤️ merry Christmas and happy new year to you both also. Cheers from thunder child from hailly and I!
Just found your channel. Very cool. Glad I'm not the only one with inaugural issues, LOL. Our first night aboard our Alberg 30 Mahseer featured a gushing chainplate at my berth because the p.o. hadn't told me he had replaced the port lower chainplate but had forgotten to bed it, and when we enthusiastically washed down the deck with copious amounts of water, well, let's just say we spent our first evening walking through downtown Belleville with a bundle of bedding looking for a laundromat! Not as serious as an engine issue, but it sure took the gilding off the rose.
That’s boats for ya! Thanks for tuning in!
Thunder Child looks like an awesome boat, looking forward to seeing what you do with her.
You and me both!
Way to go Barry! Congrats. The video editing is also looking great. Fair winds,
Tony P.
Thank you!!
What a wonderful story. Congrats. I was so excited when i realized where you are, im also in the area (desolation) sailing around with a similar story. :) maybe see ya out there
Seriously enjoyed this video, my first SailorBarry watch. Keep it up
Workin on part two right now :)
@@SailorBarrygood stuff! I sail a 27ft boat in the UK and watched this aboard. Couldn’t believe this episode was 50 minutes long, it flew by!
What a lovely and enriching story. Thanks for sharing and happy sailing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Epic episode Barry ! ❤
Thanks!!
Thanks!
Thank you so so much my friend!!!!
What a great way to begin the new year, wishing you all best 🙏
Same to you!
Such genuine people! That sort of raw kindness is incredibly rare these days! Very beautiful boat, I look forward to following your adventures! Happy sailing guys and stay safe!
Congrats on the new boat!
Thank you!
That was awesome it’s not every day you meet people like that good luck on your new ship plus Merry Christmas
Thanks! You too!

Barry, nice boat. I am glad your video showed IP . It was very touching. Nice work. I''m sure the two of you will have many great adventures. JR
I hope so too. Cheers mate
awesome episode and congratulations on your new boat!
Thanks a bunch!
Such an awesome story!!!
Thanks! It was all a bit of a blur, just glad I filmed as much as I did!
Heartfelt! Lovely!
Just found your channel. Have to say what a lovely couple you are. I look forward to seeing more episodes. ❤
Awe, thanks, really appreciate it!
I just stumbled across this video, and I’m glad that I did. Excellent content I really enjoyed it an I’m looking forward to seeing all of your videos. Thanks so much. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I guess the reason I like this video so much is because Dec 5 2023 I was given a 1988 23’proline walk around with a 225 Johnson ocean runner. By a complete stranger. It’s a long story. It’s amazing how beautiful people can be.
Welcome aboard!
Amazing!!! Love this story. Cheers mate
Great to see their still great people in the world awesome boat thank you for sharing your story with us first video I watched of yours but will watch a lot more thank you again happy new year's the Staples family John and Marie 😀🎉
Welcome aboard! Thanks!
Congrats! Also, that WWII NAVY Watch Cap 👌👌👌.
Hell yeah it is!! Good eye
Oh, that boat, I've walked past it lots of times.... you walked past our boat too ;) BTW that is not the Comox marina, it is the fisherman's wharf.... about half the price of the marina. That is a pretty boat though.... The difference between a ketch and a schooner is .... not much, mast placement (and therefore mast size) is about it. Deep Bay is a nice place to stop, nice people there. Anchoring out is not so nice as all the power boats run through that part at full speed anywhere past the big yellow float. Enjoy your ketch, it looks lovely both in person and on video.
Thank you kindly!
CONGRATS !
So been up to Comox several times.. I'm pretty sure they wait for you to have hope and expectation to carry on the then they hit the red light switch , buggers!!
Enjoyed your video we love Comox , and were in Silva Bayfor 5 days just before you got there ..
Congratulations u guys on your new fantastic vessel. Greetings from Sweden!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful story. Cheers
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like a beautiful boat. Reminds me of my 1926 Crosby Cat yawl, the windlass look just like the one on your boat
haha the boat yoga fold, know it so well
Good for you for taking on Thunder Child. I was on a long hunt for a Solid gaff cutter or ketch a couple years ago, we looked all over the island and BC Wide, but couldn't at that time find a solid enough boat that was in our budget. I found a couple that I really liked but despite my best efforts the owners did not want to part with them. I'm not a shipwright but a traditional vessel rigger and sailor, and I wasn't quite confident enough in my woodworking abilities to take on a woody that was quite old or in need of major structural work.
One of the last boats we looked at looked great from the outside, the teak hull planking was in great shape, but my quick survey revealed rotten deck beams, cracked and rotted frames, white mould in most of the boats hidden areas, and general neglect. I think by the time we got around to having a look at Thunder Child I was starting to get a bit gun shy after some of the previous boats w'ed looked at, and maybe I didn't take the time look close enough before passing on her.
In the end we found a fiberglass boat with a traditional hull design. I still regret not finding a gaff rig though. They are wonderful to sail, excellent, powerful downwind rigs. Forgiving and simple to rig.
Looking forward to seeing what improvements you make to her. Looks like you got a good one.
Cheers
Ryan
Sounds like we should be friends! Where are you located?
Cheers mate. Thanks for watching and commenting
@@SailorBarry Absolutely! We live in Sooke and keep our boat in Victoria. Would love to meet up with you guys cruising in the summer. We will probably be up in Desolation Sound in August. We were up there last year in July. Good luck on your projects. I’m off to rip a stubborn windlass out…
This will be a wonderful adventure.
Already is :))
great story enjoy!
Beautiful boat! Probably a good idea to put a pipe brush through the heat exchanger tubes.
Good Job!
Nice score!! Thunder child is a real charmer, and looks sea kindly, like my Tahiti. Enjoy!!!
Amazing. Tahiti ketch is a beauty.
She's a cutter, but still a Tahiti.@@SailorBarry
She is a very nice boat all the best with her fair wins ahead ⚓⚓
Thank you!
Bro my dad had that Harley Davidson T in the 80s. I rocked it in the 90s. Loved that shirt!!!! Wish I still had it. Thx for the vids!
I love this shirt. It’s proper old vintage too. So rad!
Congratulations she is beautiful. Karma working. From 2 beautiful people to 2 beautiful people
Thanks!!
Great upload congrats on thenew boat im very inspired with your positivity during trials and tribulations. I once took a boat on test drive that broke down and left me stranded. The Honda kicker started right up then died and the pull cord broke leaving us drifting down a river dodging dead heads with a fishing net for an oar. We made it back to safety and my wife still wanted the boat I regretted that decision and the boat was cursed. I sold the boat fast forward 15 year the new owner call me and ask about the boats original name and said the boat was cursed. Glad the dog house is gone from my life. Hopefully thunder child turns out
Sofar so good! Thanks mate
The engine has a real sweet rhythm to it. would be easy to play a tune. Nice find and a beautiful human experience to boot.
Great video! First time to see your channel. I realized google must have known I'd like it when you arrived at your new boat and it was an Atkins design. Ours is too, but not quite a proper classic like yours. Best of luck to you. I hope to gather enough knowledge one day to own a proper classic. If you make your way south, maybe we will cross paths. Subscribed 👍
Gotta love an Atkin design! Fair winds my friend!
Great story, great vdo, great people.
Glad you enjoyed it
Did you ask “ whats the Ketch?” …lol. Great video
Haha damn, missed that opportunity!
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful boat
We agree!
Congrats!
Thanks
Throw us Thumbs 👍 while you wait 😅
She is a beauty - going to be interesting to see what comes next.
Absolutely! Cheers
awesome guys
Thanks!
No way i have "fairy boat parents" as well they are so patient,kind and loving that they practically adopted me !!!
I love that!
Every relationship takes work, especially when with a boat. You will work out the bugs. Congrats on your new beauty.
Thanks! Very true my friend.
a simple very reliable way to test a thermostat is to drop it in boiling water. You should see it open. Take some pliers to grab it out of the hot water and leave it to cool. You should see it gradually close. If so it is OK. If not the part is bad.
Congrats on your new boat, it's gorgeous!
That is such a great tip, going to do this next time. Thanks so much!
Thank you kindly!
$25000 ~ i was looking at this boat awhile back, oh wow, you are so fortunate, congratulations.
Absolutely, thank you so much.
You were saying you had a secret last episode Barry. Wow guys, super big. MEGA. Bon Voyage Dagon, Bon soir Problem child a-thunderin' down that sea-way. She's not as quaint yet, but you'll see to that, But she's a beauty to behold. And now you got a motor, plug in the past. Take a while to build another of those. And it is true, Hailly, yes, sometimes it is imperative to be makin' that moula before we get to see that cheesecake. But now you get to eat it. Ahoy mates, fair weather fore 'n' aft
Thanks!! Love your comment. Thanks for tuning in and commenting as always ❤️
Who else saw the ' natural feet' ? 😂
The boat chooses you as they say and she chose well.
But boy oh boy the lines, hardly a ripple as she slips through the water wow.
You sure can see the similarities to steves Arabella in these vessels
Yup, a sister ship of sorts. William Atkin design.
Got a thumbs up mate....but flck I miss you pair...but is OK...I'm just being greedy. Best to ya both over Christmas and I will wait until ya get ya next one up
Happy holidays!
