Maya, if awards are given for RUclips videos you should submit the last two. Your work is a cut way above all the videos I watch weekly. Truly professional filming, editing and sound.
I will second that idea! Maya's artistic skills set her work apart from the mainstream of youtubers. I believe that this work could mark the start of a promising and productive new career.
I have followed you guys from the start. You are masters of your many crafts. This is the best of the best that you have produced. I am 86 and had tears in my eyes when you sang. I love what you do and look forward to every week. What i love most is you do it in a boat. Thank you Merv.
I can see this as the definitive cruising/destination video against which all others should be judged. The cinematography, storytelling, editing, music and narration are as good as it gets. You have set a high bar for your own work to follow!
Man that's BEAUTIFUL scenery. In the boat you get to go places that the MAJORITY of Canadians will never have the opportunity seeing. Great video looking forward to what next week brings
The last couple videos were my absolute favourites so far. I’m so happy that you were able to kick back and enjoy our beautiful BC coast on your lovely boat and with your new friends. With all that’s going on in the world of politics, this was a very welcome change. Such beauty & tranquility. You have produced amazing, quality videos. Thank you SO much! Love from Ontario 🇨🇦
I am truly awestruck by your latest video. I never thought your incredible content could reach greater heights, yet here it is-truly your finest work. You craft a breath-taking painting with your cinematic videography, mesmerizing narration, imaginative imagery, and a soundtrack that resonates with every scene. Your editing elevates the experience to a crescendo that captivates every viewer. And the extraordinary special effect of discovering identical triples who flawlessly fiddle and sing-it's almost unbelievable, a testament to talent surpassing what any single person could claim. This video isn't just a showcase; it’s a heartfelt exhibition of your remarkable and diverse creative abilities. Congratulations on creating such a magnificent film that touches the soul.
You two are not only making memories, you have tangible records of those memories through your videos. Mark them and treasure them, they are priceless.
Maya, as a retired 75 year old I don’t get out as much as I used to and am subscribe to over 150 RUclips channels. Yours and Aladino’s are some of my favorites. I like both your ship work and sailing videos but as an amateur musician any of your videos with your music are my favorites. Please keep up the great videos!
I have always enjoyed your weekly videos. I must say I was blown away by the remarkable quality of the last 2 videos. Filming with the drone allowed me to feel like I was experiencing your journey with you. I knew I had to watch this on my big screen TV, rather than my IPad as I usually do. I am so grateful that you shared that your lovely sailing trip with me.
What a beautiful video! Maya, your photography skills are getting more impressive every video. Simply stunning scenery! And then adding another dimension of your talents by writing, playing, and singing an original to make the video even more spectacular! Very well done, Maya and Aladino!
And just like that, Maya and her beautiful music are back! I have liked almost everything you two have put together. But this, this is what I have missed the most. Thank You!!!
Wowzers, What a Spectacular Magical Stunningly Enchanted Forest. Thank you for taking me there on the big screen, somewhere i will never go The violin scene stitched together, Amazing & Beautiful. Thank you for playing 🙏 I've just tripped over your channel, glad i did 🙏 Cheers from Australia Steve
Watching this brings back that euphoric feeling of being in such a magical place. THANK YOU both for being part of this incredible journey-sailing there together made it all that more fun! Maya, you’re unbelievably talented, and your voice is just beautiful. We cant wait for more adventures with you this upcoming season
take a moment.. take a breath... and please embrace gratitude for how incredibly blessed you are. The hard work is beyond worth it, you have an amazing life.
Wonderful video … it has it all. Beautiful music and vocals, enticing glimpses of food, history, a walk through primordial forests and geologic grandeur. Everything except boat repair (oh my, did I really say that?) . Well I’m sure that will return in due time. For now, continue to enjoy life afloat and, when possible, share it with us. Cheers. Ps. “Old Man and His. Fiddle” is a lovely and haunting tune (which is currently stuck in my head 😂)
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful journey. What a magical place. Maya, your song was so lovely. Very special offerings you are blessed to share with us. Thank you 🙏
Story telling, unique music, excellent vidiography. You earn every minute of you sailing life. "Clambering," i love the sound of the word. And this is not to overlook the finely crafted work that is your magic carpet. Thank you guys for making the world a better place.
I love your voice! I relax every time I listen to you. Whether just narrating or singing.. which I don’t remember you singing before. I just remember you playing music. This video is one of my favs. The beautiful landscape ❤️
Just fantastic as usual. Lake Saint Clair is iced over now and my boat is on the hard for the winter but my sailing adventures continue as well as I love blasting my DN ice boat. But to relax as the wind howls outside with a hot cup of coffee enjoying your video is wonderful. Perhaps you’ll make it to the great lakes someday, if you do, I will look you up. Best regards, John.
Epic adventure, epic video. 2025 Cruiser's Choice Award entry for sure. The soundtrack really stood out, both the music and the way the ambient sounds were included. Of course, always a treat when you perform, and as a trio extra special. Of course the cinematography speaks for itself. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.
I was soo worried when I did not see a video last week, glad you are safe and sound. This boat is everything you dreamed it would be. When you are old you will be able to play back these videos and relive the best part of your life, which, is most of it! Always play things on the safe side, and you won't have any regrets. Oh, what joys lay ahead! Time for the Lazy Jacks! So much more tinkering, that's the fun of messing around with boats, been doing it all my life, never going to stop. You guys made Friday my favorite day of the week! I think you guys were made for each other. May God continue to Bless you in all that you do!
After overcoming years of challenges, it's a joy to see you live the dream you worked toward. I now tune in for the cinematography and eloquent narration accompanying your adventures. At several points I thought I was seeing triple, but I'm sure that was the dream state you floated us through in Part One. A treasure.
I loved Maya, accompanied by Maya and Maya! This is a wonderful and beautiful journey that you are on! So glad that Aladino made the Scout, that is how I started watching your journey.
I have to say, that as much as I enjoyed the rebuild videos of MC2, you being back on the water and showing us your adventures AND the renewed inspiration for Maya's music is awsome. Thank you so much.
Love your voice and your old man cabin song a bunch. I think your song and your singing is so awesome and a delight to listen to. Oh my gosh, it was good!
I'll say it one more time. Maya, you are as exquisite a story teller and filmaker as Aladino is a craftsman and boat builder. Pretty talented couple making 'magic' together! Thanks so much for your art.😊
Thanks for the great videography. You really caught what it is like to be there, including that steep hike to the cabin. It doesn't seem to have changed a bit since I was there in 1993. It is truly a magical place, the jewel in the crown of the many gorgeous anchorages in B.C.
the quality of this last videos is amazing... the sharp image, the light, the music, the editing. MAya, you are getting better and better. And Magic Towel is so cute!
Absolutely beautiful your artistry on full display in this stunningly beautiful fjord. I have ventured there too so feel your wonder ! No trappers cabin journey for us just rain and poor visibility it we enjoyed every minute of our time there. Thanks for taking me back!
Be still my heart, my tear ducks are empty, I must pause for water that I see upon the screen, this episode has drawn me to tears beyond my wildest dreams.
A willingness to modify your plans for weather conditions with ease & to enjoy the present moment is a gold standard sailing skill. This video was definitely worth the wait.
I am so glad you had clear weather at the cabin- the views from there were full of grandeur. The swirling mist and clouds later made those monster brutal mountains fairytale romantic. PS that section on the gigantic fish ball and water was a miracle of incredible art.
That was an epic journey. BEAUTIFUL scenery. That was quite an effort to film, assemble and edit that episode, and the musical interlude was truly lovely. Thank you for sharing!
Truly the most majestic “sailing” video ever posted. Aladino may be the epic shipwright, but, Maya, you have talents beyond comparison in your video editing, elegant descriptions of your surroundings, and your hauntingly beautiful music. Oh, the music! And I might add your humble humility in sharing your feelings, even when you’re sad and exhausted. Thank you so much for making this sailing channel so much more than wind and sails. ❤❤
Maya that performance of Old Man and His Fiddle was masterful! I didn't know you had a Spotify... Followed, Liked and on repeat all weekend!! Also, this latest series has been by far the best RUclips sailing videos ever produced. You have this immense talent within you and when you pour it into filmmaking at this level, and then add your music 🤯🤯🤯 There's simply nothing better than this.
This video was aw inspiring in its beauty. The combination of your music, running water’ crackling campfires and feet crunching through the primeval forest. Coupled with outstandingly authored narration of such beautiful surroundings, all edited to perfection. Myer, your talent for taking me with you, not just visually but to the depths of my soul is amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you
This was phenomenal! I didn’t realize you were a Songbird too! This has been one of my very favorites, I love it when you play, it just adds so much to your films, I think this has to be how it was hundreds of years ago & People entertained each other. ❤
I always feel like I've stepped into a magical fantastical land when you combine such a beautiful place with such beautiful talent. Love the song. Amazingly done!
Maya, I love your music that enhances the views... It is impossible to not be drawn in, and relax while just gliding through the peaceful waters. Very cinematic. Thankyou for so gracefully taking us along. 🥰

Maya, if awards are given for RUclips videos you should submit the last two. Your work is a cut way above all the videos I watch weekly. Truly professional filming, editing and sound.
Thank you very much, that means a lot. I've put a lot into the last two episodes, and I'm really proud of them.
I fully agree. And I just love your music!
I agree 100% I watch a lot of RUclips videos and Maya is a cut above all the others! This one is bookmarked so I can watch it again and again!
AGREE!
I will second that idea! Maya's artistic skills set her work apart from the mainstream of youtubers. I believe that this work could mark the start of a promising and productive new career.
i don't think an entire natgeo production team could have put together this cinematic wonder. stunningly beautiful and poetic. bravo!!!!
thank you!!!!
Maya you’re really coming into your own as film maker, story teller and musical score. Well done. Your artistry was on full display.
I have followed you guys from the start. You are masters of your many crafts. This is the best of the best that you have produced. I am 86 and had tears in my eyes when you sang. I love what you do and look forward to every week. What i love most is you do it in a boat. Thank you Merv.
This episode is an absolute piece of art, you are being justly rewarded for the months of work, sweat and tears.
I can see this as the definitive cruising/destination video against which all others should be judged. The cinematography, storytelling, editing, music and narration are as good as it gets. You have set a high bar for your own work to follow!

Most enjoyable video I ever viewed. Music was great and you're singing put a smile on my face. Thank you for your artistry and fairwinds.
Thank you so much Richard!

Your sailing dingy looks so amazing as it moves over the water.
You two are masters of cinematography and this was some of your best work yet!
What a beautiful video! Maya, your photography skills are getting more impressive every video. Simply stunning scenery! And then adding another dimension of your talents by writing, playing, and singing an original to make the video even more spectacular! Very well done, Maya and Aladino!
Stunning… I am in awe of the scenery you are sharing with us! Thank you!!!
Academy Award Nomination for BEST DOCUMENTARY of the year!
And just like that, Maya and her beautiful music are back! I have liked almost everything you two have put together. But this, this is what I have missed the most. Thank You!!!
Well done! Great Photography and Editing. Great to see you ON the water for change!
I love the old man and the fiddle violin Trio. Very impressive!
Wowzers, What a Spectacular Magical Stunningly Enchanted Forest. Thank you for taking me there on the big screen, somewhere i will never go
The violin scene stitched together, Amazing & Beautiful. Thank you for playing 🙏
I've just tripped over your channel, glad i did 🙏
Cheers from Australia
Steve
The sensible passion you express with your musical performances an now, all of a sudden, your singing, did please me a lot.

Thank you. An episode that is one of the best.Even so its still a bittersweet reminder for this old sailor for the some days that never came.
That was absolutely beautiful. You are an artist through and through🩵⛵️
Wonderful video … it has it all. Beautiful music and vocals, enticing glimpses of food, history, a walk through primordial forests and geologic grandeur. Everything except boat repair (oh my, did I really say that?) . Well I’m sure that will return in due time. For now, continue to enjoy life afloat and, when possible, share it with us. Cheers.

Your cinematography is breathtaking, your narration and song made me emotional.
Maya, thank you for sharing your talents
This series is absolutely one of your best, thank you for bringing us along 💖
48 yrs since I was there and you made it feel like yesterday. Thank you! Really enjoyed your musical production.
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful journey. What a magical place. Maya, your song was so lovely. Very special offerings you are blessed to share with us. Thank you 🙏
Story telling, unique music, excellent vidiography. You earn every minute of you sailing life. "Clambering," i love the sound of the word. And this is not to overlook the finely crafted work that is your magic carpet. Thank you guys for making the world a better place.
You've definitely got your mojo back when we get treated to a new song ❤ Great work since the launch with a new level of film work!
Beautiful song to go with the beautiful inlet. The forest reminds me of where I grew up.
An unbelievably beautiful episode, scenery, music, and just so incredibly peaceful. Extremely well done! Thank you both!
Another absolutely lovely creation, simply wonderful, thank you.
I love your voice! I relax every time I listen to you. Whether just narrating or singing.. which I don’t remember you singing before. I just remember you playing music. This video is one of my favs. The beautiful landscape ❤️
Maya in her element where she excels… musical talent and photography with the narration that portrays her surroundings! Thank you.
Nothing beats the Y tube restrictions than doing a beautiful song like that !!
Just fantastic as usual. Lake Saint Clair is iced over now and my boat is on the hard for the winter but my sailing adventures continue as well as I love blasting my DN ice boat. But to relax as the wind howls outside with a hot cup of coffee enjoying your video is wonderful. Perhaps you’ll make it to the great lakes someday, if you do, I will look you up. Best regards, John.

Your videos are on an entirely different level of quality after you started sailing in your beautiful and renovated boat.
WOW.
Fantastic.
What beautiful music and equally awesome cinematography, thank you.
I was soo worried when I did not see a video last week, glad you are safe and sound. This boat is everything you dreamed it would be.

Chapeau to you Maya. I love the way you show the three Mayas to convey the melody. It's the first time I've heard your voice in solo too.
I so enjoyed your video of Princess Louisa Inlet. Thank you for your generous heart. Stay young and enjoy life.
I have to say, that as much as I enjoyed the rebuild videos of MC2, you being back on the water and showing us your adventures AND the renewed inspiration for Maya's music is awsome. Thank you so much.
This is such a great cinematic and professional movie.
Well this was about the most beautiful video of yours that I have seen. Absolutely spectacular.
Wauw ❤ love the song
And the filming and editing next level👌🏻
Love your voice and your old man cabin song a bunch. I think your song and your singing is so awesome and a delight to listen to. Oh my gosh, it was good!
After viewing, (immersing myself) in your video, I am at peace. (It's been awhile.) Amazing scenery, and video. You are the best!
Thank you. 😘
Trapper's cabin music is exquisite! Brava!.
You guys are living my dream.... thank you and many blessings forward in a spectacular life

Words are so inadequate for this episode. Thank you for so brilliantly telling this part of your story.
Just awesome! Thank you both! You took us to a beautiful place mentally and visually!
Be still my heart, my tear ducks are empty, I must pause for water that I see upon the screen, this episode has drawn me to tears beyond my wildest dreams.
Beautiful music. I live in Scotland , but I did live in Qualicum Beach and miss it. Thank you for the reminder.
A willingness to modify your plans for weather conditions with ease & to enjoy the present moment is a gold standard sailing skill. This video was definitely worth the wait.
Stunning views, amazing music and a great adventure. Thanks for sharing.
This was epic. It was as though you guys were in a wonder world! A fantastic payoff for the months of reconstruction!
I am so glad you had clear weather at the cabin- the views from there were full of grandeur. The swirling mist and clouds later made those monster brutal mountains fairytale romantic.
PS that section on the gigantic fish ball and water was a miracle of incredible art.
That was an epic journey. BEAUTIFUL scenery. That was quite an effort to film, assemble and edit that episode, and the musical interlude was truly lovely. Thank you for sharing!
Maya, I really enjoyed your choice of music for this video. Thanks for doing the hike that we seniors could not when we were there a few years ago.
Groovy episode. The photography and your story telling are magical. Thank for sharing, so enchanting.
Special is hardly fitting a word for such a gorgeous fjord. Thank you for taking us all along. Wow.
That was an epic cruise, what a fantastic and stunning area. Maya, your musical trio piece was beautiful. Thank you both
Fantastic video in all aspects. Watching in awe in Cape Town. ❤❤❤
Thanks!
Wow - thank you!! This is incredibly generous!!

Nice job capturing the essence of the area and sharing in such a vivid video "canvas".
Beautiful.
Wow what a majestic place thank you for taking us there and the music was amazing as always.
So nice to see all your sisters, Maya. Beautiful song.

I believe in time this will become one of your most precious videos. Along with your music and music choices it should last a lifetime. Fantastic job.
What a beautiful adventure. Thanks for the escape!
Maya, I love your music that enhances the views... It is impossible to not be drawn in, and relax while just gliding through the peaceful waters. Very cinematic.
Thankyou for so gracefully taking us along. 🥰
What a marvelous scenery.
... And performance ;,)
Your music knowledge and experience became obvious, and turned this very good video into ART!
Beautiful video and wonderful music. What I come to expect from your channel. Thank you.
Got goosebumps from your song Maya...
