I have several psychological issues from trauma and tragedy. I have seen the worst of life and I struggle it seems daily. But then I find people like you Kika and Dan. Your life smells like a field of wild flowers and the sound of a precious beating heart. You guys calm me with your beauty and I love you both for this. Thank you!
Living aboard a small sailboat is very therapeutic. Very healing. It's so in-your-face. Its such a real lifestyle. So alive. And so doable for nearly anyone. That's the thing. If you want this its not that difficult. It is very reachable.
Same here this channel is helping my anxiety
without a doubt.... this is my favorite place to be and relax and enjoy two of the best !!! I love Kika and Dan
I love Kika having so much fun! She really is sunshine and joy to the fullest!
That last shot of NYC and the Statue of Liberty....just beautiful.
The amount of work it takes to maintain and constantly improve a boat is nuts, and then on top of that you put in the time to produce videos like this, its really impressive. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
I have been watching you guys since day 1, seeing this 3K$ wreck looking like a million $ yacht is amazing! Your talent in taste and craftsmanship is genius! Congratulations, and can't wait to follow your big crossing! Thanks for all your hard work, including all the filming, editing, and so much more "behind the scene" work !
I think this video is perhaps the best one yet in terms of video quality, editing, and production. You two keep improving constantly. I'm happy you had a safe voyage to New York City without mishap, and eagerly awaiting your next video. Can't get enough of Uma!
'Merica! WTC 1 and The Statue of Liberty in the same frame brought a tear to my eye. It brings back so much sadness, but reminds me how beautiful the future is. Hope you enjoy New York.
A few days ago I commented on the Royal Navy video, let you know how much I enjoyed your channel. The 10 percent of your videos I hadn't seen were mainly in this group. Obviously I missed Uma's most transformative history since before hitting water, such as woodburner, sails, dodger and deck paint. Just amazing!
That Moana song is my 4yr old daughters FAVORITE song to sail to! She screams it at the top of her lungs..... Kika sings it pretty well too!
New York never looked as good as it does from Uma.... plus a sunset that is unequaled! great video
This type of ‘sailing’ videos are always about a dream life in the oceans. I was wondering if any of those ‘sailors’ didn’t experience any struggle or bad times at all. They always look like they are very happy and sailing in a boat in the open waters is a piece of cake. You are liying!
We choose our weather vary carefully to avoid nasty weather if we can. But if you watch all our videos, we show plenty of the ugly aide too. It’s a lot of hard work but we still enjoy ever bit of it.
Rays are like the poets of the ocean.
I like swimming with the big Manta Rays.
The toe nail part really got me good for sure laughing my butt off on that one well done guys.
Your balance between B Roll and main content is some of the best. Thanks for taking us along.
I went and watched some of the steps from Season 1 and 2 again just to see how much UMA has changed since then. I really love what you have done to her.
Beautiful! My heart swelled when you shared an arrival kiss in front of Lady Liberty.❤️⛵️🗽
Beautiful footage, and wonderful editing. You two set the bar for others to aim for. Uma looks Perfect! Safe travels.
multiple cownose rays are called fevers. We call them bat rays down here in Tampa. Tampa Bay has the highest concentration of cow nose rays in the world (and hammerhead sharks which eat rays)
I read recently that shark populations are down significantly (large asian country hunting them for the fin) and these rays are causing significant damage to grass bottoms and certain estuary's.
When you see a sun set like that it is for your eyes only....thank you for sharing this special monument in your memory,s and you guy,s heart.....Love.,...ls
Wow. I can't believe you're allowed to anchor and fly drones so close to the Statue of Liberty. Awesome shots!
You guys are a wonderful couple. I aspire to that in my own relationship. And, beautiful passage.
Big points for Dan getting that "Kika is beautiful" comment in there. Well done mate! Uma is looking really good. Amazing what you guys have done with her since you bought her.
Uma looks fantastic...what a job you two have done to your yacht. Bravo!
Yup, as others have noted those are Cownose Rays and they come pretty far up into the bay to mate and give birth. I've seen them above Annapolis. They come into the bay because of plentiful food sources. In spite of substantial set backs, public policy has helped the Bay make some progress in saving the rockfish and crab populations which are good indicators of the overall health of the Bay. Lately we've seen a lot more rays and dolphin in the upper bay. Something that was a rarity just 10 years ago.
UMA looks transformed and happy. Reminds me of when a scruffy rescue dog find fantastic new owners that bring out the best in the dog. You guys are a beautiful couple and I really enjoy your weekly videos. Keep up the good work?
You're saying Uma is a DOG!
I love Kika's socks :-)! So nice that you got to Sail Uma out of Chesapeake bay - kind of completing the circuit! Plus going to New York, if I remember from your memories episode you planned on moving there - mission accomplished :-)! Most amazing way to arrive and a fantastic spot to anchor!
As if anyone needs another reason to love sailing downwind ... now you have the panoramic hammock!
Nice "new" shoes at 11:09. Pretty sure this is the first time we have seen Dan in shoes in months.
Another amazing thing's that Kika's such a happy camper, never discouraged!
Even when something bad happens, it's not long before she's saying, "But on the bright side..."
Cow nose rays. Seen frequently on the Chesapeake
Awe, I love cow nose rays! If you ever get to feed them, they are like puppies! I used to dive for the national aquarium and we had a big exhibit full of rays once and it was my favorite but they phased it out and put in black tip reef.
I've been watching since step one. I'm not a sailor, but would love to be someday. Thank you for sharing your life with us! You guys do an awesome job filming and editing! 🤜🤛⛵
Best way to visit a city is the Uma way....sail in. You get a much better perspective of the city. Well done you two!
Thank you so much for the night view of New York City. Never been there but to see the city from the water at night is amazing. And Kika, you are Muana!
The dodger has made a huge impact on your quality of life!
Amazing pictures of the Statue of Liberty.
If you ever have to snuff your kite when you get caught out by a sudden squall, the best way I've found is to leave it sheeted tight, and for one person to run to the bow and spike the tack downhaul snapshackle, upon which the other person, standing further aft just in front of the lee shrouds, hauls the sock down smartly.
If shorthanded it's good to rig a spike line ahead of time, from one chainplate up to the bow and through the spike aperture, than back to the other chainplate. Then you can trip it with your foot from the aft location and haul.
Cool pass under the Verrazano! I've driven over it many times when I lived in Brooklyn.
Guys...I sense a wholeness feeling wrapped around you as you drop the anchor on the Statue of Liberty. The editing conveys that well. what an achievement. Been following you guys since day 1. For your future passages ...and future inconic moorings , can we expect a similar drone view arround London Bridge and Eiffel Tower both reachable from sea ?
The best video so far from you guys! Almost felt like a movie... UMA it's looking great.
Love your new dodger and stackpack! The person hwo did that was a real pro. Looking forward to more of your inspiring vids
Bestest Video Ever!!!!!! Great Job Dan and Kika, what a beautiful back drop to end this video with.
Having watched most every video of yours, I can say that Uma looks absolutely beautiful! She looks like a virtually new boat. Just great!
Watching while working tonight. For me this video was very calming to the soul. Have a Magical Day 🍷🍷
so glad you had such a sweet sail to the city! i moved back here after living in the country for 10 years and its been hard to get used to the fact that it NEVER gets dark here 😆 btw, your ray encounter aroused my curiosity..a group of mantas is called a squadron and even better, a group of stingrays is called a fever.
Dan & Kika, I loved hearing your impression of sailing under the Verrazano Bridge, into New York Harbor, and having the NY skyline as your back yard. I grew up in Jersey on the cliffs opposite Grant’s Tomb / 125th street and my reality is different. It’s very refreshing to hear people come to this area and taking it all in and experiencing the awe of one of the major capitals of the world. It’s a place I just call “the city”. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
That is so cool to sail into New York and anchor right next to the statue of liberty
The new Dodger looks great! I'd love to have a wide, slow pan from the center of the cockpit, just to take it all in.
YOOOOOOOOO! The intro to this video is simply amazing!! Binge-watching "Sailing Uma" on a rainy cold winter day in Mississippi is exactly what my doctor ordered! Stay safe guys!
Just plain COOL! . . . the final harbor scene, yes, but the whole vid: 1. the great look of Lady Uma her lines bedazzled with spiff new paint job 2. her sweet new 360^ view dodger and 3. the newly found hammock. Thanks, you two for video magic!
Kika, I think this is the best video editing that you've ever done. Seriously, I'm impressed! Great job.
Man, you guys have done so much to Uma that I marvel every time I see her now. The same with New York. I'm originally from Brooklyn and when I see NY I can't believe how beautiful it is.
Fantastic shots of the most iconic skyline on the planet. Cant imagine what it would be like to have that veiw in my back yard.
Your correct with the Ray's.......they court one another on the surface & mate .......their usually in groups .
Your new dodger & deck paint job look great .
See if you can dock at Chelsea Pier for a few hours then go to the Chelsea Market, incredible collection of food shops and restaurants. Also at 23rd st and 5th ave go to Eataly, you wont regret. Across the street is Madison Sq Park, go to the original Shack Shack. From there it's a nice walk going west on 23rd st to the Highline Park. Go to Rockefeller Plaza at 7:00 am, wear Sailing Uma T-shirts, and get on camera during The Today Show. They pan the crowd coming back from commercials, talk to a camera man, they can zoom in on couples in the crowd. The members of the Sailing Uma Nation would be stoked.
For a period of 16 weeks, when I was 11, my Dad & I lived apart from my Mum & Sister, while Dad & I started our new job & school (respectively) in Bristol, commuting back to Kent on Friday night, then back to Bristol on Sunday night. I used to call the light pollution "Sunset over Swindon", as I once got confused by it. I'm 46 now & remember those times so vividly - thanks for showing us the "Sunset over New York"!
That was a great video......the continuity, the sailing and the uplifting stars excited by their arrival! Excellent! The statue of Liberty made me think of the millions of migrants who have arrived by sea and saw the same view! Loved it!
Thanks for reviving a good memory; Seeing the rays in Chesapeake bay from the masthead of a gaff rigged schooner. Then later, sailing alone (under power), while everyone was asleep, through Hell's Gate up the East River and into Long Island Sound. Memories from 1963 or 64. Too bad I didn't have someone like Kika to share it with. Fair winds to you.
Red sky at night sailors delight, red sky in the morning sailors take warning.
Those were not ray's, they were your boat angels coming by to see Uma in all her new glory.
Great video. Your content and post production is the best going. If possible, could we see the details of your sail pack and how it’s tied to the lazy jacks.
Darn it all....... I have caught up to your postings............. now I have to wait....... Soooo looking forward to this new phase.
I love your shirt 2:02 . I have seen many people get into (avoidable) trouble (and sometimes even die at sea and on shore) ALL because they were in a hurry! Example; People who had to get to work on Monday so they sailed away from the protection of an island in a storm and never make it to work or anywhere else ever again,,, type stuff. Yes, I love your shirt! Just make sure you live by that rule.
This would have to be one of your best videos yet. So good to see you both going north off the normal path and being true adventures vs cruising the Med, Caribbean and South Pacific. Sailing into NY city must be a bucket list item ticked. The boat also looks amazing at the moment! All the hard work is paying off and now you can totally start reaping some of the rewards for your hard work!
You guys weren't as far as you would think from my home in Ontario. Looking good.
great episode again Kika & Dan! Uma looks great! keep sailing save ⛵️💜🌎😍
Very cool to see you in my backyard
Awesome sunsets...And moon lit ocean at night....That’s gotta be peaceful
Great, thanks Uma. Now I want a stack pack on my boat!!
Hi Guys! I was wondering when your episodes would catch up to your visit to NYC. Now I know! : - ) And the last couple minutes of the video fit perfectly with the view from my kayak as, on one Saturday a few weeks ago, I made a valiant effort to paddle over to Brooklyn. The view of the back of the Statue of Liberty is still very clear in my memory. Starting in Liberty Park in New Jersey the statue is VERY prominent but also faces away from you. Your next Step should be interesting. Until then, this is Captain SNAFU signing off. ; - )
That new dodger looks sooooo nice.
1) I am so jealous of your new dodger- it's just about perfect! 2) Wow. perfect wx for that passage! 3) Fair Winds!
I have been waiting for this video on a Thursday night in Melbourne Australia
Terribly late comment but I didn't know you have sailed withing an hour of my house!
Edit: Newport news lol
I didn't realize the Mandelorian sailed too!
Beautiful voice, beautiful video. Thank you for sharing
You know your doing a good job on the videos when you can make NYC look beautiful. That is the only way I want to see NYC...from the anchor.
Yep, NYC is a great place to see from a distance or experience close up for a short time. Then get as far away as possible. My 2c.
Y'all make my city look so beautiful
Beautiful! My backyard! Would have love to meet y’all in person. Cheers 🍻
We sailed into Atlantic City just after sunset years ago and the lights were amazing. Our only problem was rounding up the crew for a 5am shove off. Cape May was amazing, sailing past the Statue of Liberty took our breath away. ⚓️ Thanks guys.
Your hard work show up and Uma look at least 10 years younger. Great video and keep up the good work.
I love you guys and your videos. Such a sweet couple who are washing away my Covid-19 lockdown blues. Keep it up!
Fantastic video! The best video of sailing a passage I have seen. A lot of your shots are art.
The view, by sailboat, of NY is so beautiful! Lady Liberty was awesome as well!
Kika I wish you would consider selling some of those beautiful images. I would love to have them blown up to poster-size pictures.
You know that Bermuda is just a puddle jump across from NYC. We just had Delos here, would love to have you come by as well. ;)
Absolutely perfect!!! The rays and dragon flys to the skyline of NY. WOW ❤️
And you don't have to mow your backyard! Beautiful video, awesome editing.
Fabulous video as always I so look forward to them...
Now that's a sailing video ! Love it
