I came across your channel this weekend as I begin my research on Kracken boats. What a special surpice to find my new favorite sailing channel. You are both lovely people . Who make very entertaining videos. Adam I wish you an amazing, deep journey in experiencing new depths of love as you spend time with your father during his time of transforming back into his eternal self. If you and your father still have time, and your not to embarrassed, look into each others eyes, breathing. It is in this place that you can both familiarize with eternity of the other... become aware of a feeling in your heart that is vast. Better yet do it all as a family. Blessings
I'll bet there are lots of folks looking at Kraken Yachts and dreaming now. I know there's at least one. The Ocean Sailor podcast is really good too. Thanks for bringing attention to both.
Just found your channel last week and as we are in lock down here in Canberra I started from the beginning. I’ve been bin watching as much as I can, absolutely love the channel it brightens up my day, your laughter is infectious and love the faces the first mate makes, keep going and keep laughing. Stephen
From one ginger to another, I did my HOT Sunny times in the Navy in Vietnam and then straight to Puerto Rico. I was 19 in Vietnam and 20 - 23 in Puerto Rico. Talk about freckles and of course I got called RED on board ship. But the both of you are my number ONE RUclips Channel. 🥰
You guys were great crew and did a really good review of this great boat. I like the t-shirts they gave you, I may not have seen one but, showing the incredible large Octopus (Kraken) pulling a boat to the abyss may not be a very good sales shirt, but would be just fun!
Dear friends, please give it a thought; it is so easy to get burned when cooking like you did. If there is any boiling water splashed over, your legs and feet are target number 1. I personally would atleast wear an apron or so, and closed shoes. And now I will stop talking like a grumpy sailor, cause I am not. Just want you to be and stay safe out there..😁 With love from us.. XXX
Love your beautiful videos! Thank you for including us in your journey. Always excited each week to be along for repairs, discussions, and sailing. Love, love, love you two. -dm
Really cool. Enjoyed seeing how much fun you guys had and, by the way, its also a really good advertisement for the boat. I think everyone wins here! Seems like Khiara might be ready to get back to being a bit more hands on 😊, but she's awfully sweet to let Adam do his thing. Adam has strong (and good!) opinions on blue water boats and you can tell how passionate he is to be sailing a boat that is so well thought out and designed. Great videos, as always. My favorite sailing channel by far. Best one on youtube in my opinion...let's get you some more views so you can afford that Kraken 50 some day.
Wonderful series of videos guys on the Kraken 50! You inspired me to go off and watch a number of Kraken Yachts own videos. I am so impressed just as you were with how well thought out everything is, the build quality appears excellent but most of all it’s the rock solid safety that’s got me in.
That was a really enjoyable watch! Incredible boat. Thank you for all your hard work, on that series and the whole channel. All we have is a cold cloudy windy day in Melbourne, so the sun was a nice wake up.
The bragging rights is for the Sailboat that goes the fastest with minimal heel and not for the fastest with maximum heal, did you forget that ? love the video, amazing sailboat, chhers from P&F in Sechelt, BC
When I buy mine would you two be interested in being delivery crew to the US? Now that would be a trip to remember. Thank you for showing all of this. Well done. Have fun!
A boom furling main would be ideal in my opinion. That way all handling can be done from the helm and no need to ever go forward while underway or having to head into the wind to lower the main or set a reef point.
I loved watching Kraken series. Recently discovered your channel and I'm already a huge fan! Kraken is now on top of my dream list. I also admire your courage because I'm originally from Istanbul and I wouldn't dip a toe in Marmara sea, let alone swimming in it but I'm sure you'll be fine :-)
In comparison to the Discovery range, which to me seem the most comparable competitor, can the Krakens be set up/automated for short handed sailing? If you guys don't get a huge discount offer at the very least for all the free advertising you've done this past month and a bit for the Kraken group I'd be amazed....
Hi loved the video's onboard the Kraken, you sure had a great time. I have a question as we know that you love the boat so much can it be crewed by just the 2 of you or does it need more people. I am guess just 2 people would be a push. Anyway keep up the great work on the videos as I love sharing your trips away.
Adam and Khiara, 🙋♂️ Great video. 😁 I smiled all the way through this one to. (And some of the comments also...😂) For a long time I have debated the monohull vs multi-hull arguments with myself. (at least mostly with myself anyway.😊) Your video coverage of the Krakens may have broken that stalemate. 😉 I have one question. If you were offered a dream deal that put you in possession of a 50 foot Kraken, How hard would it be for you to give up the Millennial Falcon? Best Wishes from the Northern Gulf of Mexico. 🙏🙋♂️
It’s a lovely boat but it would seem the owner made some peculiar rigging decisions… particularly the lack of electric winches. I can’t imagine specifically requesting to delete ALL of the electric winches and eliminating the furling main. I would be curious about the reasoning behind those choices.
Perhaps he had a previous experience with a furling main that wouldn't furl with the wind getting up. I would rather the extra work of slab reefing myself.
We’ll our aim was simply to document out time and learn about a boat we admired. We weren’t payed and we’re not sponsored. We’re going to Keep making videos about sailing and sailboats weather it’s the Falcon or any other boat for that matter.
@@SailingMillennialFalcon I might of done the same thing if the opportunity presented itself. And it permits you to generate content and revenue. And it permits Kraken to get free advertisement. This is the way of the RUclips and internet world. It seems like a sweet deal. While the rest of us suckers do traditional jobs.
always get a kick out of you're videos.. and I thought how you name Kiarra sounds like some beautiful gem name as you definitely outshine any gem out tgere.. but how did you parents arrive at it. Like Tiarra with a K to be more unique? Great grandma Kiarra ? Anyway.. the Kracken 50 is pretty awesome and re NJ ever back when the kracken seaman said you should have a boat that takes care of you while I'm no
😂😂 A lot of the water comes from the Black Sea. My impression from 1 very short dip in the Black Sea is, "it was COLD A F", like swimming in liquid ice.😨 I grew up in the Gulf of Mexico. That's more like luke warm chicken broth. 😁
@@mikebarron5805 I'm in the south. Summer is, as you say, like swimming in soup. 😀30c or so. Winter it drops down to 16ish. Which is hotter than England for all apart from the hottest months of the British summer when England's seas reach a heady 19 degrees or so. 😂
I'm astonished that the high end boats often don't do shakedown cruises like this. How else can they deliver a boat ready to sail off by the new owners? I just don't get it. It seems just so sensible.
Some brands do, others have a period (e.g. A month or so) where you do the shakedown yourself and can bring the boat back in for free tweaks etc. What annoys me a little is the "hard sell" the Kraken team seem to do by dissing the competition.... horses for courses but I'd take some of what Kraken says with a pinch of salt... or certainly within context!
@@mikebarron5805800K GBP = 1.1 Mil. USD. The 800K GBP is for the one Yachting World test sailed. Probably the price differs quite a bit on individual specs. In with the Yachting World test sailed Kraken 50 a 100k GBP in extras. Which would put her in the basic variation at 975K USD. So I'd say. 20K per foot is pretty correct.
Better watch out Adam, if you keep being so helpful, they might just kidnap you from RUclips and give you a job in their company doing product testing...
Kiahra, I am starting to feel those “boys “ are not including the most attractive redhead I know in the planning and involvement of these trips! If Adam does not see this. Shame on him!
Lol 😂 hardly….we live in 42 foot box year after year 24/7. A foot in the face is the least of anyone’s concerns. This is called playing around and it’s not disrespectful in the slightest if you know your partner.

Adam please find a way to give your lovely lady a “directors chair” on Millie….
Thanks , I had an awesome time sailing with you !
What a dream trip you've had. Pleased as punch for you both.
Cheers Duncan!
Keep on Kraken and laughing!

Hey Khiara, Not easy being on a foreign boat with a bunch of Guys. Your a real trooper, good on you. Enjoy ⛵. Thanks for vid.
Thank you for taking us along on your Kracken adventure.
One hell of a craft! If only I had an extra million laying about,..
Ahh - Make that $2 million. $1 million for the boat and extras and the other $1 million for sailing expenses for the next ten years!
My new favourite yacht. So glad I came across it recently.
That yacht is absolutely magnificent...
You guys were great crew and did a really good review of this great boat. I like the t-shirts they gave you, I may not have seen one but, showing the incredible large Octopus (Kraken) pulling a boat to the abyss may not be a very good sales shirt, but would be just fun!
So sad to see you leave this amazing boat but looking forward to your Istanbul adventure.
Just remember this voyage was one in a million and to say goodbye is not the right thing just say till our next time.
Better hope Mille doesn't smell the other boat on you! 😊

Just relax and have some fun it was great to see that boat that is a beauty
Awesome boat. Thx for bringing us along!
Great looking boat
received the monthly sailing newsletter this morning and it looks like all parties involved really enjoyed your visit.
Great job you two, really enjoyed the checkout cruise of the Kraken, it's truly a beautiful craft in all aspects. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it 👌🏼 thanks for watching
You guys continue to put the oar in awesome. 👍🏼💯💥🤛🏽🎉⛵️
Enjoy watching videos you both this million yacht sailboat ⛵️! 😘⛵️😀. Mike from Missouri
Your love of the Kraken comes through the videoI hope you manage to own one some time.
Looks like so much fun and that boat is just beautiful !!!
What an awesome series, what an awesome BWC boat! 😍 Thank you for sharing
Love your beautiful videos! Thank you for including us in your journey. Always excited each week to be along for repairs, discussions, and sailing. Love, love, love you two. -dm
Thanks for watching Dennis 🙏
Thank you. Another fun video. You guys are great!
Congrats.......I loved this boat........
You all look Great in that boat... ✅. 18 knots.. WOW 😱
But you both look good in your own boat as well... !! 😎👍
What a fun adventure to follow - great presentation
I cannot say thank you to many times for this fab ride along on a fantastic sailboat! You did us right straight on through!

What a wonderful yacht. Thanks for sharing!!
It is nice to see that the million dollar yacht comes with a dumbwaiter option…. (Not speaking of Khiara, but that lovely pass through port…)
Fantastic yacht and your coverage has been awesome 👌
that kraken sure is sweet. thanks for being such a great team
Even though the Kraken is awesome it doesn’t reach the awesomeness of Tayana 42.
Wouldn’t change her for the world.
What a awesome boat!!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Love it you guys rock wished I could do something like this 👍👍👍🤠😍😍
Who knows, Adam might have found a future job after you guy's are done with your world adventure on the Millennial Falcon!
Sounds like a sweet gig to me!
Love you guys and stick at it but ensure you stay in control..... or we all lose out!
The bragging rights is for the Sailboat that goes the fastest with minimal heel and not for the fastest with maximum heal, did you forget that ?

Sign me up 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@SailingMillennialFalcon Tell Ron to fly me over. I'll lend a hand.
Worth every shilling. On a lesser boat the directors chair is known lovingly as the slappers perch.
A boom furling main would be ideal in my opinion. That way all handling can be done from the helm and no need to ever go forward while underway or having to head into the wind to lower the main or set a reef point.
They come standard with inmast furling this one was an odd setup

They may not be aware of the problem this summer there. I too would not have swam there.
You make me smule all the video
Happy to hear it!
Outstanding
In comparison to the Discovery range, which to me seem the most comparable competitor, can the Krakens be set up/automated for short handed sailing? If you guys don't get a huge discount offer at the very least for all the free advertising you've done this past month and a bit for the Kraken group I'd be amazed....
A seriously sizable discount. 😁
Sadly it would still be beyond our reach for the time being!
Nice one🤟

The way they are usually Setup I’d say two people could easily handle it. This one was a pretty odd setup at the owner’s insistence

I was hoping for underwater shots from inside the boat... With the angle it had last week, the views would have been insane.
No doubt it’s a very nice boat, but I feel like I’ve been watching free advertisement for Kraken for the last several weeks.

Well I certainly hope Dick to you out on White Dragon 🐉 for a proper sail.
Perhaps one day we’ll get a ride on the dragon! Alas not this time round.
I’m ready for you to be back on your Tayana 🥴
That swim must have been chilly AF. It's cold in the north.

Beautiful boat but I'll still choose Garcia 45/52 as I love to sail higher latitudes.
Gotta try and get a ride on one of those next!!
here is your brand new boat, its only been sailed most of the way around the world
It may not be the case but it does very much look like a boys own tour.
$20,000+ per foot....OUCH on my budget. But, I'll be glad to crew for you when Kraken makes a 1 to 2 year advertising sponsorship deal with you two!
We wish!!! Lol 😂

Maybe you need discussions on commissions on the interest you have generated in the Kraken boats
We’re happy to simply go for a great weeks sailing and make some fun videos.
Are we still on Yachting World? When do we get back to Practical Boat Owner? 😉 Poor Millie!!
She’s happy as a lamb and going to be spoilt rotten with upgrades soon.
@@SailingMillennialFalcon Glad to hear it! Looking forward to it!
How the other half live 😉
Nice video, how many banks does Adam need to rob? lol
awesome :-)
I've been watching a whole series of lovely Hutterite videos with their lovely long dresses. This is quite a change.
How much is a kraken 50?
What happend at 3:04 in the background? Did you even notice the whale or dolphin? :-D
@ Alexander S Just out of curiosity, how did you determine that whatever caused that fuzzy flashing was a mammal & and not something else?
It’s funny when you say the code k It’s sounds like cocaine 😳🤷♂️ You might have to change the letter. K . To a M .🤔😉🦋💖. Love this episode . 🐬🇦🇺🦋⛵️
If he gives me a yacht, I will give him a few diving tips.
Has he lost the grin of his face or stopped talking about the boat yet
That was way waynto short.
To sail wing on wing is best with two poles, I could only see one on the boat.
Yeah it was a strange owners choice version. Standard model comes with two poles.
Funny you should mention the world collapsing while you are out to sea... We're all watching RUclips since FB, IG, and WhatsApp are dead in the water.
You know better than to say ropes by now! Right??
No one said "Release the Kraken!"?
I was waiting for that one myself. 😂
Marmara Sea is NOT the Mediterranean. It's much closer to Black Sea. To get to Med from Marmara, need to cross Dardanelles, then the Aegean Sea.
Typical Med winds, 4 or 40.
What is the cost on the Kraken 50?
Around 800k GBP or one lottery win or one NW-passage proven Bestevaer of similar size (used). :)
Someone mentioned $20K a foot. That would be 1 mil US.

Soon as they cut me loose in a K50 alone I’d likely never come back 🤣

Kiahra had the most important job, document the trip with video, dialogue and editing.
It was good to watch this episode until the foot on her face. 👎. Let’s be more respectful to each other.
Lol 😂 hardly….we live in 42 foot box year after year 24/7. A foot in the face is the least of anyone’s concerns. This is called playing around and it’s not disrespectful in the slightest if you know your partner.
As a ginger where can one sail? My wife has no interest due to the fair skin
Higher latitudes are good for less sun. Much less crowded, too, which is a major plus, in my eyes.
So now it's just about getting enough paper to finace the whole thing by yourselves, not charity.
Good, stop dreaming and get back to reality. Yes it would be nice, BUT, get real.
Geez lighten up buddy 🍺
