that country seems clean and orderly and gorgeous.. and very rich. it's lovely, I'd like to visit.
Thank you for the fabulous series on Sweden, and your fantastic music specially with your fiddle! Great tune with Marina on singing! You are a great channel for us sailor fan's. Love from Sweden ❤😊💐
Why throughout this series have you been thanking me for watching? If anything I should be thanking you for making these!
Of course I’m not complaining, but these episodes have been so beautiful that I think y’all deserve some thanks for your work. Your videos have caught the summer nights and magical seas of western Sweden in a way that seems almost impossible in its quality. I love how you can create beautiful episodes no matter where you are - From Sweden to Idaho to the Netherlands, your creative talent seems to know no bounds. It seems that Magic Carpet II is coming soon, and I can’t wait for the stories she’ll bring. They say it takes a village to raise a child, but it evidently also takes a village to raise up a boat. Can’t wait for what’s next for this channel.
Fair winds and following seas,
-J
I could not possibly say it better.
Bless you both.
I really have found it lovely to share a little bit of your summer sail. So relaxing! Your playing just inspiring. We are really looking forwards to what comes next. However you both have given us a lovely gift, inspiring!

A perfect violin tune for that mooring. A bit mystical, A bit melancholy. This whole Scandinavian Summer series has been amazing, your best work yet. Oh, I posted too soon. Another lovely violin snippet in the woods, mirroring your words about change. Thank you!
The cars is called EPA Traktor. (Today calledA-traktor) A relic from ww2, when farmers was allowed to gear down normal cars, to use as a sort of tractor.
Today, you can get a simpler drivers license when turning 15, for those. Max speed is 30km/hr. But many is faster than that.
There are a few videos about those. I recently found this: czcams.com/video/3LU8TnWnciQ/video.html
It has been most, most enjoyable to visit Sweden through your eyes and now, I cannot wait to see you back on MCII,
I appreciated that you were brave enough to admit in your video that you were having a bad day. Most people I think would leave that out but it adds to the realism of your videos. Sailing life isn't just good times and fair winds.
You play such beautiful music. Thank you for taking us on your journey and the great music.
A slice of zen; with a headsail. Bravo.
I usually don’t rewatch the episodes on CZcams ( having seen the on Patreon) but my 7 year old fiddle playing granddaughter (who’s visiting us here in the Caribbean aboard Zeitgeist our Hallberg-Rassy 64) has discovered you. She has a 5 year old younger brother and longs for an older sister like you. She’s captivated by the episodes where you play with yourself. You’ve got a big fan in Alicia. Be well guys!
You didn't miss a study visit at Fantasi Yachts where you passed under the bridge? They have built fantastically beautiful sailboats with absolutely wonderful craftsmanship.
You are both very special people. We love your episodes. Your sadness in Autumn and the prospect of leaving such a magical summer is understandable. Thank you for tugging at our heart strings again. Beautiful.
Have so enjoyed your sail through Sweden, will miss it when you finish. Thank You for sharing.
Beautiful sailing shots.
Just a beautiful journey being with you guys,
I have been loving your videos and have been watching entirely out of sequence, some Magic Carpet II, some Magic Carpet, some Magic Carpet I, some refit videos, some sailing, some with wonderful violin music with wonderful effects. Thank you. Then I reflect on my own miniscule sailing experiences. Thank you some more for the serenity in your stories.
The orange triangle means slow moving vehicles. It was introduced during the war when trucks and ordinary cars were restricted so that they would only go 30 km/h. they were registered as tractors (Epa traktor) and could then be brought forward when one turned sixteen. The regulations are still in place and many young people are building these vehicles. I'm not a sailor but I enjoy following your adventures. Wishing you good wind
Your bowing is exquisite Maya.
What a fantastic episode. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks.
Little bit of everything very nice. Beautiful life!
Bye Marena! You seem very sweet and will be missed.
Hope all is well now with your path.
Great combination of video and haunting violin. Keep on navigating life with all that involves.
Speaking of Cape George 36, in real time on the GGR, Kirsten has inherited the lead in her CG due to Simon’s Hydrovane failure and him declaring himself Chichester Class, out of the official running to win. During a GGR video, McIntyre stated that demand for Cape George 36 is now so great, the prices of the few available hulls has risen sharply and that there is now talk of restoration of the CG36 molds to build new hulls for folks looking to compete in the next GGR.
I have really enjoyed your journey. This is my first year not doing any sailing for at least 40 years. However as you say, all good things come to an end. My body has let me know enough is enough and I have a myriad of memories to trawl through. So thank you and I wish you good luck and wonderful sailing next year next year. Adrienne
My Friday Heart Warming Smiles...... Lots of Love.... :-)) xx
I have been watching you for years And enjoying you very much my 1st time comment But MaIA you are a true artist in Your music video composition narration I enjoy the story of lives and adventures
I always look forward to your episode on Fridays. Your production is the best of the CZcams videos I subscribe to. I can’t wait until you start to rebuilt of Magic Carpet II again. ❤
A wonderful video, Maya your violin sounds just as beautiful when you are in blue jeans as when your in a dress. Hope that your summer of sailing gets you all keyed up for boat work on "Magic Carpet II", looking forward to all that you have to offer.
Thank you for a very nice clip and beautiful music. The cars with the red triangel are called EPA-Tractors or A-Tractors (they are changed in a way they shouldn't go faster than 30 or 40 km/h and with some other changes. You are allowed to drive the 30:ish type from 15 years of age and a moped driving license, the other one from 16 with a tractor driving license... Those "tractors" have quickly grown in number last years and there have been some really bad accidents with them.
I liked the short, storm and ship animation.
Sweden is very hot country in February 🙂 Nice yacht and sailing.
Beautiful scenery thank you for sharing.
I am happy to see you playing the violin. My dad played the violin also. Have a good day and stay safe.❤🎉💙🍁🌷🍍🦋⭐🏵🍎🎉
I always enjoy your journey so thank you for sharing your story. You 2 are amazing and you inspire me to try and live a fuller life. 💕
Another well made video! An extra thanks from me because I’ll be sailing from Oslo to Denmark this spring and now know what to expect.
Another excellent show!
Thank you for doing such an amazing job.
Beautiful playing and tune!
I really like your style and your music is perfect for the mood. As much as I’m interested in the boatwork stuff I’ll miss the serenity of your gunkholing through the Swedish fjords. Beautiful stuff.
An elder from Northern Canada.== Always waiting for your next upload.= The scenery and the violin complement each other.= Bruce
I thought the coast of Sweden would be fjords with huge mountains...but it glacial rocks worn smooth and just a few meters high ...pretty cool ..thanks you intrepid travelers ....
M'lady I believe you have an artistic soul, beautiful as well!
"The Sleeping Tune!" Awesome.
😂 the strange cars with triangle on the back are "EPA traktor" , it is basically a moped on four wheels with drivers 15-16 years old. They are super annoying in the traffic! 😅/ Ahoy from Sweden
Magnificent! Thank you.
Beautiful area in this episode. Your music is so nice and soothing. I look forward to Fridays and my visits with Maya and Aladino.
I kind of feel bad. You guys are having a great time using a sailboat to sail, and I keep thinking "When are you going back to Washington and getting back to work on the Cape George. You deserve the vacation, just selfishly, I want to see the big boat get all the love it needs and get back to work, too, lol.
The cars with triangular plates are registered as traktors. They have been modified to only go 30-ish km/h and you can get the permit at age 16
I have been following you. The bad flows of the Rhone I remember and the muddy canal to the Rhine. Thanks for this. Yes the swedish west coast is nice. But you are missing out on the Stocjholm archipelago. Good luck whatever you do. Life is always going on.
You always have such beautiful thoughts.... I wish i could remember them for ever. - Wait! Maybe publish a small book with all your poetic thoughts it! Anyways , very nice episode ....
The most unfettered art form of story telling ever experienced! In no small part due to its deliciousness being garnished with Musical Maya on the Rocks. (Merch Idea: Bottle a premium Canadian whisky and label it "Musical Maya on the Rocks.")
Thankyou that was lovely..
Another awesome video! The scenery is absolutely stunning with your choice of music blends perfectly. Your weekly videos are so refreshing and enjoyable to watch. I love sitting here in the mornings with my coffee being drawn in to your adventures on the Sea. Great job you two! See you next week.
While I enjoy the building series now I see what we will miss over your winter. It is February and I'm sure a lot has happened with MC2 but spring is coming and you are much closer to resuming his kind of video. You did really well in stretching the summer out for so long and making it beautiful and very interesting. Great job you two. See you next Friday.
I really enjoy listening to how you describe your adventures. Your voice is so soothing and calming, and the way you enunciate your words in your narrative is beautiful. Please keep it up, and peace to you both!
I just love your violin music and your music choices for the videos. Thank you for sharing your adventures and your gift of music. 🙏❤️
It starts to get boring, 😊 but again; beautiful video! I really want to sail there as well. Hopefully you have an other one coming up next week. Looking forward to it. Have nice one.
Beautiful episode as always!
Thanks for sharing! Love the songs!
Wonderful, many thanks for taking us along with you.
Cheers from Edmonton.
You never disappoint no matter the mood. It's refreshing to see that you include real life in your videos. As always love the violin music. Can't wait for next Friday. Safe travels
A senior who has followed your journeys for a long time. Watch your various adventures every week. Recent episode with you and your friend Marina creating the music video was touchingly emotional. Two young women and a fusion of their creative talents - awesome!
Lovely tune by Gordon Duncan sleeping tune ❤
Thanks so much for this summer trip thru Sweden erc. Kirsten is in the lead. Woo hoo. Lots of miles to go and I love her temperament. Fair winds.
Wow Sailor 👍
The cars without licenseplates are registered as tractors and must not drive faster than this (30 or 40 km/h don't recall precisely). This is why young people are able and allowed to drive them.
A bmw 3 series registered as a tractor and driven no faster than 40km/h…🧐
@@DaleNewnham It is modified..
yes, it's a remnant farming days when young people needed to be able to drive tracktors from/to their family farms, thats why you can get a permit to drive these from the early age of 15, they do have some limitations, some needs to have stiff rear axel (no suspension allowed) some has to have two gearboxes that limits their speed to 30 km/h , some needs to have a pickup bed.
Great for learning to drive before the age of 18! they are not so popular on the swedish roads tho as they tend to stop up traffic and can be hard to get around.
@@freeradicalll1 early age of 15? Having to wait to 18 must be depressing for kids.
The Epa/A-tractor came out of a need for a cheep tractor but has since the seventies mostly been used as a "car" for youth .
The rules and regulations has been changed trough the years. Leatly it's been easier to registrate them and they grown fast in numbers.
They can be driven 30km/h
Not "loved" by everyone...due to causing traffic jams:)
But, well, I'm a petrol head and are glad for every kid who become interested in cars and motors....
Magnificant. Thank you for your efforts. Best wishes from Seattle
Every time you go out on the rocks and play your violin I can hear your near by floating neighbors saying to themselves "Wow. Can you hear that. Some one is playing a violin. It's so beautiful." Because that is exactly what I would say.
I would too, of course, but I think we can safely assume that most of the times there were nobody close enough to hear it. The Scandinavian archipelagos have so vast spaces that one can always find a little island or bay to be alone, even in high season.
I totally love the area they’re in now, but also many of the other Scandinavian coasts are breathtaking. Especially the extremely long western coast of Norway is insane. Way rougher and less easy to sail than the “Västkusten” they’re showing a piece of here, but also way more impressive and an experience one needs to have.
The cold of a Northern Europe / Canadian winter always scares me, but I think I could cope with the summer it's very pretty up there, but Aladino's clothing tells me it's still very wintery up there in the summer (writing this on a lovely cool 30ºC day here)
June and July in Scandinavia are absolutely gorgeous. August feels more like Autumn.
As always great video.
So sad to see Marina leave.
Thanks
Some men think thier life would be perfect with the winning lotery ticket. Aladino, mine would be, being thirty and touring Swedish isles with two beautifiul ladies and an equally beautiful sailboat.
as a Hungarian and an amateur cook, I would have loved to see the paprikas Aladino made. :)
Tack!
Thank you so much Anders!
get a feeling of youthful summer weeks I spent in New Hampshire in a cottage by the lake. Thanks for bringing me back to a peaceful time, and how lovely you get to experience such days in your prime, with each other. Carry on and stay the course.
Your friend Milena is sweet and clear when talking about life on board. Thank you for sharing so much of the experience of the archipelago, the landscape, bays, peaceful nooks. Sweden seems to treasure it's life and landscape, resisting overdevelopment.
I always appreciate the small, natural things you chose to film. Many people overlook the wonderful natural things we live with. I loved the gorgeous clouds as the storm ended.
If your objective was to convey to the viewer all the feelings and emotions you are experiencing as your summer comes to a close and you leave such a wonderful place and face a big transition…then you have succeeded in spades! I could FEEL the sadness, excitement, trepidation and mental preparation you were undergoing. A masterpiece of an episode. ❤
I can't imagine you " in a bad mood" you are a very beautiful spirit.
Thanks for a magic summer of sailing with you both. See you back in MC11, the adventure continues...
The fyords in Scandinavia remind me of the Pacific NW.
Lovely
Thank you for such amazing insights with the the musical beautiful inspirational addition to your insights I’m always carried to a very special place whenever I watch you’re brilliant videos so upwards and onwards to the beautiful place you two are headed myluvsya 😜🖖🏻😜🕷🕸H
Healthy things grow and growing things change. Embrace the change, "we" will be with you as long as you let us.
...snug as a bug in a rug brings back so many memories ❤️🇨🇦
I enjoy your cinematography compositions. Very artistic.
I really appreciate the "realness" that you bring to your videos. It's ok to wake up on the wrong side of the bed, and I love that you shared your processing of it. Thank you for sharing the beauty of a part of the world I most likely wouldn't get to see otherwise!
Thank you for sharing your fantastic life, sailing in beautiful places, be it the canals of France or Scandinavia... and the music ! And also some words of wisdom here and there, a true philosophical experience watching.
I really love whenever you include you playing your violin. 😍
Visually stunning and beautiful scenery thanks for sharing another great video 👍👍⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️💕💕
The soft music at the end is always so relaxing!! Thank you and Aladino for sharing!!
You do such an artistic work in your episodes. Lovely to watch. Thank you for taking the time to share your adventures with us. We’ve been watching all your episodes and really enjoy your journey in Europe as well as the states. Such hard workers and beautiful work. Deeply appreciated. Krystyna in Wisconsin
Thanx for a wonderful episode. I feel that I have to go out west with my boat, but I don't like the transit to get there.
Love your music selections! Great episode. Thank you! Salutations from us in Victoria B.C.
Agree with her. One of many things I like about this series is the quality of filming which is excellent
Thank you….
When you are around 15-16 years old you are allowed to drive tractors in Sweden. This is so that kids are able to help on their parents farms during the harvest. So there is this thing called “epa” tractor that kids used to drive around. There are special rules like speed and stiff axels and so on that they have to follow.
A couple of years ago they changed the rules so now you can make any car into a epa. The result is that kids of people with allot of money buy expensive cars to their kids. They drive very dangerously and lately there’s been a lot of accidents with death’s as an outcome.
Those "cars" without the reggo plate on the back, but with a red triangle instead, are the bane of any motorist!
They are usually called "Epatraktor" in Swedish, and this compound word translates into "Epa tractor". The "Epa" probably comes from the name of a long-gone department store, mostly known for it's low prices. So you could interpret "Epatraktor" as meaning "cheap tractor". But some of them are anything but cheap....
The rules for them are different than for ordinary cars, the most obvious being that they are limited (in law, but not necessarily in reality!) to a top speed of 30 km/hour (20 mph). This lets youngsters who live outside the major cities to get around without needing help from their parents all the time, but their slow speed also means that they have an unbelievable capacity to get in the way,particularly on small country roads.
Thank you for your video this week. I really enjoy them.
Lovely to hear that you can separate filming from life and still give us a clear story to appreciate. Thank you!
