    Just wanted to say I’ve been laid up with flu over the Christmas break and I think I’ve watched all of your videos! Your upbeat and interesting content has kept me so entertained! I can’t wait to be back on the water 🥰 here in the west of Ireland it’s mostly inland for pleasure cruising because the Atlantic offshore is pretty dangerous 😂 we have a good bit of sailing but it’s dicey! but I’ve loved living vicariously through through guys and wanted to say thanks!

    To bad Shawn did not get his gift from Santa. We had about 10" of snow in the Illahee area (not the park) near the Port District pier.

    🎉Happy New Year Freedom🎉 Having a stern thruster is pretty nice. Last time my boat was on the hard I installed one by myself. Not too difficult at all and I dont come close to have Shaun's skills. 2 batteries hooked up for 24 volt. A separate charger for the stern thruster batteries. 2 wireless joysticks for upper and lower helms. And a separate hand held remote. 8.5 hp motor. Boat was only out of the water 1 day. I did all the wiring back in my slip. 😊

    Hello guys, we enjoyed seeing you back on the RUclips‘s.
    Seeing you up there at the Arctic Circle in the ice and snow breaks my heart in light of Sean having asked Santa for 80° weather. I have trust sold on a 50 foot boat and left one of the nicest marinas in Sausolito called Schoonmaker marina. They have ample availability and contrary to your previous research may be willing to offer you reasonable pricing to winter the cold months ahead.
    Just some food for thought.

    • @mvfreedom
      @mvfreedom  3 года назад

      Good to know! Besides cost every Marina we called either didn’t allow liveaboards or had strict 30-60 day rules, so right now while Shawn still travels that would’ve made things stressful to find new moorage every few months. Can’t wait to get there later this year though when we’re more flexible 👍
