Canada here . Good evening Captain. I have been with you since the beginning when you { we } met Karl . It has been interesting , highs and lows , laughter , tears . And your time with SV Joana and Maria .Everything in between. BTW, how's the ankle . One thing I have never seen before , a GLOWING Captain . Looks good . What ever comes next , live it your way . Enjoy every day , stay healthy , happy and always keep looking forward .
thank you for your sweet words, Brien, and for being on this journey with me since the very beginning. Hope you will stick around for the new adventures to come :) BTW: the heel is doing alright. It does not like me carrying more than 10kg nor walking long distances but if I keep up with Yoga then it usually does fairly good.
Ich habe dich noch nie so Glücklich gesehen wie in den letzten und diesem Video und es freut mich sehr . Liebe verändert halt alles und ist absolut nichts für Feiglinge und ich bin mir sicher du hast Mut . Ich wünsche dir weiterhin alles erdenklich Gute bei euren Abenteuern die das Leben so mit sich bringt .
Crazy, I was one of your first viewers. I live in Nova Scotia. I often think about you. Your stories got me through a really rough time in my life and I know I owe some of me still being here to you. ❤ you!
Hey Tim, it warms my heart to hear that you have been sharing this journey with me since the very beginning. what a ride it's been, hey? I very much hope for you that you have made it through that rough patch and looking at a bright horizon. Please take good care of yourself. Sending you a big hug!
New lines to untie! Focus on those things that are meant to look forward to and dream about. You are a pearl and the world is your oyster. Please keep us in your life because you give US something to look forward to, too! 😁⛵️
Reading the title I just thought … wait, I remember you seeing Karl for the first time but the story you told felt good and a new story will unfold… maybe even close hier in Nederland
Wow Nike... Thanks for sharing your life, your accomplishments through the years. Sometimes life decisions prevent people to access their dreams, reach a goal, grow ones mind. You touched my dreams and wrote new pages of goals to reach. The proverbial "bucket list" that keeps running away from me never stopped you. You gave us 11 years of unique and great video content for all to watch. Longue vie Nike!
Go, Nike … the voyages in Karl have been like all the best - adventure, fear, joy, uncertainty, dismay, pleasure, challenge … happiness … going “towards”, not “to”. Karl has more voyages ahead. Sure of that. Thanks for taking me along as virtual crew since Ep1. Wishing you the best in the next chapter. Roy 🎉
thanks Roy, for your kind message. I truly hope that Karl has more voyages ahead. Thank you for cruising along all these years and I hope to see you around for the next chapter!
It has been a wonderful adventure. Thank you. Thank you for sharing. You have been a welcome visitor and story teller. All the best of everything to you. You are my hero and you will do great… thank you
Nike, everyone likes change as long as it’s someone else making the the change. There is no doubt in my mind that you will continue to navigate the new adventures as you have done in the past. Congratulations on completing another season!
I am not sure I fully get you there. You mean as long as someone else is introducing the change or as long as it is someone else having to undergo the change and you just watch ;)))
Viel Glück bei allem, was du tust, Mädchen. Ich lebe auf einem Boot in GB und bin ständig unterwegs. Anfangs war ich unentschlossen, aber nach 12 Jahren liebe ich es immer noch, den Traum zu leben. Folge deinem Herzen, deinem Geist. Und deinen Überzeugungen. Aber bitte hör nicht auf mit diesen wunderbaren Vlogs. Sie sind fantastisch und ich verfolge dich jetzt schon seit Jahren. Viel Glück. Aber geh nicht weg. Xx gadgit xx
N- Go on with your life. Your curiosity never waivers. A boat is just a boat. But the adventure never stops until you do. Enjoy and I hope you find your hearts desire.
thanks for your kind words, Dale. I copy the adventure part but as you probably know I will put a veto in for the "a boat is just a boat" part ;). I do feel that each boat has their own soul and Karl is not "just a boat" but has been so much more to me in the past. So it's never easy for me to leave him behind for a while or even forever. For now it's just a break...but we will see...
@@WhiteSpotPirates None of my boats have been "just a boat," and I know Karl is very much more than that for you, Nike. He has heart. I'm emotional seeing this departure of yours from him, even while being happy for your newfound happiness.
Nike, you are probably the most amazing young woman I know. Canal Boats are amazing, I can't wait for those episodes. The history of those canals is absolutely fascinating. The country side is picturesque, I believe it will lift your soul to new heights. I for one am so excited for your future plans and your future in general. I wish you the best during your travels back to Europe.
thank you for your kind words, Daniel. The whole Canalboat journey has been quite incredible, to be honest. A completely different feel. I am looking forward to share it!
Your plans sound exciting! I can see the peace in your face and can tell that you've resolved a lot in your heart. Pleasant journey and I look forward to your sharing it.
Rolling along in life is OK. Insearching your self is more difficult but challenges issues, then you can choose to reset your goals again. Good luck, keep well, and thanks for sharing.
Your beautiful emotions were on your sleeve , got me emotional too. I said it a few weeks back, it’s amazing to see you so obviously happy. Have fun in Europe and looking fwd to the new adventures.
Dear Nike, thanks for another great video and sharing some life lessons. Thanks for being an inspiration to make little changes in my life to be a bit more gentle to this amazing world. Thanks for being open about struggles we all have.
Good luck in all what you do girl I live on a boat in GB continually cruising I was in two minds at first but after 12 years I’m still loving it living the dream go with your hart your sprit And your believes But please don’t stop these wonderful vlogs there fantastic and I’ve been following you for years now Good luck. But don’t go away Xx gadgit xx
Hey Gadgit, I will be back soon, with new sailor's yarn to share ;). Thanks for being here for such a long time already, hope you will stick around for the new adventures to come!
Thank you for allowing so many to be a part of your journey , it's wonderful with both the ups and downs. Change is a funny thing your not sure to hang on to the old or grab onto the new . But I'm sure you will be fine. Looking forward to seeing you next . Angus . SV VIOLET WALTERS.
it is definitely always a bit of a gamble and has some inherent uncertainty. But I guess that's also what makes life - and change - so exciting, doesn't it?
My personal sense is that you are getting all of these "new feelings" just perfect for whay you really need for your spirit right now. YOU GO, GIRL !!!!!
I was wondering the same thing...it's all about how we perceive things that life throws at us and I think my receptors have been calibrated a bit during the past two years
@@WhiteSpotPirates You set out to "rebuild" Karl and become a solo sailor all of those years ago because that was the personal BLISS (Joseph Campbell) you had to follow - the personal drum you alone could hear the rhythm of. Since then your Bliss has given you many new skills and the confidence that comes with that, has taken you all over Karl's part of the world plus trips back to Hamburg and other wondrous places, connected with you with the bliss of trying to assist locals to repurpose ocean plastics, blessed you with many new, unique and wonderful friends, and now....... new directions for more than just you as you continue to follow that unique drumbeat you hear to new and yet unknown horizons of loving spiritual fulfillment. KEEP MAKIN' IT HAPPEN!!! 🙂
IF we postulate that there are two major "states of mind" in the universe, LOVE and FEAR (not hate), then when we let go of fear and step in LOVE we open our souls to our good, even though we may not know where this leads. Recall that when driving on an unfamiliar dark road on a moonless night we can only see as far ahead as the headlights shine but we must trust that the road will take us where we need to go - in Star Trek terms perhaps even "The Undiscovered Country". Sooooo, ONWARD with LOVE !!
Loves the episode! Especially your comment of having another place that is more stable and less anxiety induced! We are wanting the same back in Texas! Thinking to build a tiny home perhaps. But completely love it!! Enjoy the time away as you will blink and you will be back to Karl!
where are you now with Papillon? A tiny house sounds like a great idea. Especially if you need a place to go to for a while for work or sth...I am not quite sure how to balance it all quite yet...let's call it work in progress ;)
@ we just got back to Chiapas a few days ago, her refit continues! Needed time to make some more money to continue. Gah! lol It is much cooler now however so that is nice !
Been watching since the first trip to view the boat. I was able to escape vicariously during turbulent times. Sometimes a lifestyle becomes a burden. The sea will be there when you are ready.
Hallo Nike, viel Erfolg mit eurem neuem Projecten. Auch bin ich neugierig auf das Canal Boot in die Niederlande, woher ich herkomme..Danke fuer alle videos ich habe die alle gesehen die letztzen Jahre und dafuer habe ich die Aelteren auch gesehen. Alles gute Gruesse Casper
Hey Casper, danke dir! Ich hatte eine aufregende Zeit in den Niederlanden, wirklich schöne Gegend. Danke, dass du schon so lange dabei bist und ich hoffe, du kommst auch mit auf die neuen Abendteuer, die bald kommen!
@WhiteSpotPirates Hallo Niki und Flo, dann werden wir uns vielleicht sehen, wenn euch wieder in die Niederlaende seid. Alles Gute Gruesse Casper aus Eindhoven.
Wonderful plans ahead. I guess you are in the middle of it at the moment. As I may have told earlier, I live in Holland and if you need some assistance feel free to ask. Btw .......two of my cousins live on "woonboten" in Amsterdam. Any questions on that, I could bring you in contact with them.
@@WhiteSpotPirates where? on safari? I was in Kenya and Tanzanika crater lake amazing.. a lot to learn there.. from the animals... and the land.. have fun..g
... all my days I’ve spent at sea pursuing the wind and my invisible dreams I’ve learned beauty is often best viewed from afar as women, mountains and distant island shores ...💫
Danke my freunde , excuse me my German is terrible, follow your heart dear lady. A canal boat in the Netherlands may work out, a beer in the morning may too. Good Luck in your choice.
Hello there, I've been watching your channel for a long time and enjoy every bit of, for our adventures have been quiet the roller-coaster ride in itself. We are currently in Mexico heading to Guaymas ourselves for haul out so we can get back home and work a few months or more and get back to our sail vessel (September time) I was just curious if you have any suggestions getting inn and do you feel your vessel is safe their? Thanks for any feedback and safe travels, fair winds and calm sea's 🏝 Cheers
@@adamjones6565 hey there, I don’t know ur draft but it does get a bit shallow in front of the entrance so if u have a large draft it’s best to come in at high tide. We were scheduled for eight and when I got there shortly before and waited around, they were just starting to lower another boat and did not answer through the radio but over WhatsApp I reached someone. They handled my boat with care. It’s best to go in with ur stern first. I went in now first due to really bad backwards move-ability. It did not fit with the forestry so they just turned me around with lines. Super calm and very friendly guys. They have a work area and a storage area. In the storage area ur not allowed to sleep or work on ur boat. I do feel that my boat is safe there, yes. When are you gonna go there?
@WhiteSpotPirates I appreciate the info, we're a 5 foot draft, we are taking our time heading up because the weather windows haven't been great but we should be there by the end of this month or beginning of next month give or take. And if you would like I can check on Carl for you, let you know how he is, would be great to see him.
Karl will always be your proverbial 'Untie the Lines', not just a metaphor, but a reality, a catalyst, a partner for soloing, first times, experiences, anxieties, your healing power. You don't have to untie the lines over and over, just once - you've done that. What's next? More of that, coming up...
he will for sure always be that! I do feel a bit of a sting leaving him to go venture on another boat but I think what you say is true: he will forever be that, no matter what my future will be with him. Still, deep down inside my heart I feel that his and my journey is not completed, quite yet
Please, don't get stuck on a houseboat in the Netherlands - just no! I lived in the Netherlands for a decade and I don't mind telling you, that they love to portray the chocolate box picture lifestyle, but the reality is the polar opposite. The Dutch are a very insular society, the older you get, the more narrow minded they become until you can't differentiate between the parent and the offspring. Stay clear, please!
Good luck in all what you do girl I live on a boat in GB continually cruising I was in two minds at first but after 12 years I’m still loving it living the dream go with your hart your sprit And your believes But please don’t stop these wonderful vlogs there fantastic and I’ve been following you for years now Good luck. But don’t go away Xx gadgit xx
hahaha. I highly doubt it since they are both not able to reproduce anymore. But they would make some cute babies, I believe. Maybe a bit tough to handle since they are both a handful already 🤣

It´s good to see you spending time aboard with men. Now, where is your favorite place to kiss Karl goodbye?
ha! Good question. I think usually it's on the side just below the deck next to where his name is. But that's hard when he is on the hard...
Karl will always be your proverbial 'Untie the Lines', not just a metaphor, but a reality, a catalyst, a partner for soloing, first times, experiences, anxieties, your healing power. You don't have to untie the lines over and over, just once - you've done that. What's next? More of that, coming up...
he will for sure always be that! I do feel a bit of a sting leaving him to go venture on another boat but I think what you say is true: he will forever be that, no matter what my future will be with him. Still, deep down inside my heart I feel that his and my journey is not completed, quite yet
Crossroads

This must be quite a while ago because hurricane season is just coming to an end.

Well it is obvious, you are becoming a mother some day.
yeah, I think that's a bit late for that.
Your wearing a wedding ring . You are married?
nope, it's not a wedding ring. Just a ring.
The longest mental illness on a boat channel ever. Amazing.
Please, don't get stuck on a houseboat in the Netherlands - just no! I lived in the Netherlands for a decade and I don't mind telling you, that they love to portray the chocolate box picture lifestyle, but the reality is the polar opposite. The Dutch are a very insular society, the older you get, the more narrow minded they become until you can't differentiate between the parent and the offspring. Stay clear, please!
Like everywhere......its whom you meet.
um, wow!
Good luck in all what you do girl
I live on a boat in GB continually cruising I was in two minds at first but after 12 years I’m still loving it living the dream go with your hart your sprit

The Mexican taco special.
Karl never left the land of taco 🌮
😁 not sure what the land of taco means to you...sometimes it's not about the distance travelled but the journey within ✌
My apologies I just assumed you love tacos 😊 since you never left South America 🤷♂️
Are the dogs going to make babies? I want one :)
hahaha. I highly doubt it since they are both not able to reproduce anymore. But they would make some cute babies, I believe. Maybe a bit tough to handle since they are both a handful already 🤣
