After becoming paralyzed in 2010 my sailing experiences effectively ended as crutches & wheelchairs don’t mix well with sailing 30-40 foot vessel. However your videos, almost beyond any words of beauty, have allowed me to experience the Pacific almost as if I were with you on your journey. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I jump all over the place trying to find the sailing stories I crave. But your channel is the one that sticks in my head. The scarcity of your films make them even better. If I ever get the chance to be in the south pacific on a boat, a big reason will be because of your films. And my god your boat is beautiful.
Simply majestic. Such a Beautiful video from one the most enchanting places. We love that you show us the best of wherever you. We all know there can be rainy days, boat repairs and such. Other sailing chamnels give us almost too much of that 😵💫Thank you so much for capturing and sharing the Beauty of your explorations 🐠 🌴💗
Navigating those rollers had me on the edge of my seat! You and "Life is like Sailing" don't just create sailing videos you take my love of wooden sailboats and turn them into masterpiece video productions! Your editing is top notch and your narrations are hypnotic. Thanks for sharing such beauty and be safe in your future passage.⛵⛵⛵
Isn't it beautiful though, that you can chronicle & share your experiences on the RUclips with Modern Cameras? It's marvelous. You can relive the experience for years to come!
Your videos have the quality of film giving them the feel of the golden age of exploration, it’s relaxing, it’s a wonderful escape and oh, thank you for not using the phrase “super cool” in your narrative of the places and experiences that you share with us.
Absolutely stunning photography and editing! By far one of the best channels out there. You will find that French Polynisia will never leave you. It will be in your heart and soul forever.👍😊
It's been a long time since we've come across a channel with such beautiful images of our world in all its richness, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings, watching your videos is always a pleasure.
I agree with the many post's that mention quieter times and showing the beauty of your travels, rather the self indulgence found on most sailing channels. Kudos to y'all 👍🇺🇸❤️
Thank you for a truly magnificent video. A very fitting end to your travels in French Polynesia. As stated in other comments, this is the absolute best channel on RUclips focusing on the heart and soul of the real sailor. Don’t change a thing, your videos are absolutely magical!
As an old sailer myself, you have inarguably the best sailing/cruising channel on the planet!!! I'm nearly 80 years old and now, must sail vicariously through you two. Many thanks.
So beautiful. Thank you both so much for sharing your journey with us at a time when many need some beauty and respite from the distressing events that have recently made life seem chaotic and stressful.
That your videos don’t have millions of views (yet) makes me lose faith in humanity. Love the scenery, narration, the boat…simply wonderful. Greetings from a fellow native of the Pacific Northwest and safe travels.
Like a popular sing says, " Heaven is a Place on Eart" that Is certanly true. I want to thank you for the wonferfull video you let US watching. I know I''ll never visit those places , however you give me the opportunity to virtually be there!!
I loved all your videos of French Polynesia, one of my favorite places in the world (with New Zealand). As you are heading west, I hope you will have the chance to visit the Cook Islands, in particular Aitutaki, a coral atoll in many ways similar to Bora Bora, without the towering volcanic peak. A walk around One Foot Island is something to remember.
Can it be! Another video from MB? And this time only 3 months since the last one! I was literally just in the San Juan's and I wondered what MB was up to? And now, here you are. Another beautifully filmed and edited video. We don't see your videos often, but when we do we're very impressed.
I just wanted to say thank you. I just love the style in which this story is told and its just magical and captivating! Amazing visuals and great mix of music and audio that makes the viewer feel like they are riding along on this journey.
This is the best content i have ever seen about sailing, good work , upload more videos about the journey please, this channel has just made the things done 👍🏻
I find these videos so relaxing Oh man don’t forget to thank God for the beautiful world He has created for us, and that you are so lucky to sail the waters and walk the land
Not long ago I dreamed of getting into sailing, feeling the sea air blowing across my face, sailing across the oceans to lands I only read about in National Geographic. But, life happened! I built a cabin in the mountains instead. I enjoyed your video. Looking for more. Thank you!
Bora bora… Years ago , when I was on a flight to South America, an young man sitting by my side on the plane ,who introduced himself that his family own a small hotel in Bora bora. I had no idea it’s so amazing….
I actually visited your channel page earlier today to check if I might have missed out on an episode from you guys. It brought a smile on my face when this video popped up on my notifications jus hours later. As usual a fantastic video. Best regards from Jarle (Stem to stern sailing)
I'm always excited to see new content from you guys. Beautiful boat and cinematography. I recently bought my first sailboat and have been living on it for 6 months now. I call it my training wheels because one day I want to live the dream you've had and sail down to Baja and across the pacific but in something more sea worthy.
What wonderful awesome video again! Thank you very much for letting us share in your wonderful journey. You have the courage to live your dream and you will be rewarded for it. God bless you on your onward journey!
Always a pleasure to watch your very personal , uncluttered and nicely documented adventures. Love your boat too, naturally. Still one of the few true "'sailing videos' on the Tube. Never become another bikini show! Now that Florence is sailing into the cold, you're our lat hope for a tropical sailing show. Love you guys! Fair winds (and safe anchorages). : )
What an incredible adventure, that you have set yourself out upon! If I could afford any usable boat at all, I would take the same route myself, no doubt about it. I noticed one thing, your wife's/ girlfriend's/ fiancées smile already were wide in Mexico, but now it is ear to ear. You know the saying, happy wife, happy life, it is true! God Bless!
Another phenomenal video. The places you go, the beauty of your photography, even your lyrical sound track. Your videos are such a gift to us all. Thank you!
I actually googled the other day to see where you guys were and if more vids are coming. Such a lovely channel, lovely couple and awesome bluewater boat. This is how long distance sailing should be. Top notch!
I stumbled across a video in the middle of the series a few days ago. I had to go back to the beginning and watch every one including those on outfitting and craftsmanship. Just stunning. Professionally produced, beautiful narration and just amazing videography. What a world.
I find myself imagining your father aboard…. And I find myself imagining being in his shoes, with you two…. And I find myself proudly with tears. And then I get back to enjoying your view of a place that I visited early 25 years ago. Thank you! I can’t wait to see what you choose to share next! Fair winds and following seas.
Excellent detail on the video, for example, the paying-out of the anchor and chain rode. In all, a beautiful classic ketch to cruise and explore Bora Bora and surrounding islands. Looks like a place that's working to span the natural and tourist worlds. Thank you.
Each of your new video is always eagerly awaited. Thanks for showing loations which I'll never see in my life. Your videos are very, very special. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Another beautiful video from the absolute best sailing channel on RUclips. It’s so good to see more of your adventures. Can’t wait to see what’s over the horizon!
I know of no finer sailing travel content on RUclips. Your artistry invokes an earlier, quieter, and more lovely time.

I completely endorse the last comment. This is probably the best RUclips content I watch. It is like reading Hiscock.

This is the most beautiful sailing RUclips channel. I like the narrating too . No bs & no tacky, very exceptional.
What others are beautiful?

Congratulations on achieving the life long dream. What an amazing place to land. May God bless and keep you both on your next voyage.
100’s of surfers jaws dropped at the sight of that last reef pass wave.
Best twenty minutes spent on a Saturday morning in a long time.
Absolutely stunning photography and editing! By far one of the best channels out there. You will find that French Polynisia will never leave you. It will be in your heart and soul forever.👍😊

THAT is a proper bluewater ship! I saw the story of how you worked on it for so long. Gorgeous boat, solid!
One of the best sailing vids on y tube. Fantastic scenery. Crystal Clear footage. Narration as from a story book. Madison boat works - iconic
Thank you very much for another wonderful video with beautiful images. You have achieved the dream of a lifetime !

Thank you for making me feel like I’m sailing with you and exploring with you!!!
I like your quiet space that you maintain.
So glad I found you!
This is the most incredible film about travelling to Bora Bora 🙂 Watched it with pleasure, thank you!
So beautiful. Thank you both so much for sharing your journey with us at a time when many need some beauty and respite from the distressing events that have recently made life seem chaotic and stressful.
Love it. Absolutely beautiful. Been waiting for this. Thanks for such incredible adventures.
Another epic adventure. The view from atop Bora Bora was awesome.

Bora bora…
Years ago , when I was on a flight to South America, an young man sitting by my side on the plane ,who introduced himself that his family own a small hotel in Bora bora. I had no idea it’s so amazing….
Many people have sailed to these islands. Few of them on such a beautiful boat
Absolutely stunning. Thanks from Australia 🇭🇲🥰
Yowzaa, the conclusion of one amazing journey ...but you leave us in anticipation of our next. Thank you MB and Westward Ho !
So fun to be along for the ride. Great editing and musical score as always. Peace.

We would see the young girls of Tahiti, walking to school, picking the white flowers for weaving a headband. One of the best flower smells ever.
Another enjoyable video...
Good luck on the next leg of your journey...
Bora Bora dreams are made their. For those that sail its ever real. For those that can only it's a place of peace. All the best to you too.😊
