Love the history of the places you give. That makes the places you go to open up for us. Keep up the good work👍
We loved the images of town in this weeks episode but it was too short! More of that atmospheric photography please. Also like that you guys find a bit of local food to obsess over as you cruise. Great work as usual….you should make shirts that say “I’m sure I’m butchering that”😂
Mads is getting Athena ready for a potential north west passage
No, he first needs a bit of extra redundancy by adding a nuclear reactor to support the diesel engine turning athina in a nuclear icebreaker.
While the boat is on the hard, paint large eyes on the rudder to scare away orcas. Just a thought but there might be some sort of pattern to camouflage the rudder and make it more invisible.
Yay! Fixing boats in exotic places. You are definitely a sailing channel now.
Living the dream
You should put a nylon wheel beside you anchor. It should be cheap enough, run on that bolt nicely and will protect the line
Italian chiles torreados FTW!
My wife always laughs at me when I get them. "Food shouldn't hurt!"
Omg, "big money, no whammy". Cracked me up.
Hauling out near a nudist beach can leave you completely exposed. 😳😊
Love the town tours and the tour talks!!!
Hello!! Hey, you are anchored in Combarro!! The sailboat with which I practice regattas also has its mooring in the port of Combarro. What a joy it gives me to know that you are in my land. I hope your GPS works well and that you enjoy a lot in Galicia. Greetings and good winds.
Beautiful area stunning
If you had to order a boat with all of madds options your order form would look like a toilet paper roll...
Athena is one hell of a nice boat though
Bluetooth enabled TP
it certainly would be just a long😂
These videos have become the pinnacle of my week. Thank you and keep up the good work! :)
I really loved the stroll thru the town. That was a beautiful walk thru an very old world village!! An it was nice to see you 2 traveling an Sailing to the next anchorage... Thanks for sharing your lives with us ✌🏼💗😊❣️
Madds, you might find that even thought the radar is at a different frequency that it interferes with the GPS. (Just the power from the transmitter can cause it to happen) If you notice it all you will need to do is slide the GPS about 5 feet farther up the mast and that should give you enough separation.
Truly enjoy your videos and always look forward to the weekend to enjoy viewing
Stay safe and we'll see you next week.
Mads' besotted grinning at 7:33 strongly says "I lurv Eva". Adorbs!
You know you have a massive level of kit installed when you scroll through 3 screens of your device list to find the one you are calibrating today .... I loved the chilli pepper roulette.
As always great video. Thanks for the warning about the "dangly bits."
As long as you have the boat hauled out anyway, you might as well paint a message on the rudder telling the orcas to leave it alone.
Yes ,good one.
Acording Marine Traffic you are on Douro Marina!
Yesterday I was on the other margin fishing almost all morning!
Maybe we came across one of this days :)

We love the Padron peppers. Had them all the way through Galicia. Fantastic with a bottle of vino. We bought some seeds in Santiago de Compostela and grow them every year here in Canada. Love your combination of DYI and travel. 🇨🇦
Saw a t-shirt that made me think of you and your marriage saver comms gear. It read, “Sorry For What I Said While Docking The Boat”. Love your videos and look forward to every episode.
I really enjoyed the shore excursion in this video. To be honest, it is exactly what I was hoping for when I first subscribed . . . back when Mads was starting renovating the Oblix. But, I'm a hard core DIY guy so I've enjoyed all of the videos. Hope to see more similar content in the future. You two stay safe out there.
I have been checking your tracking for quite a while…last recorded position on it has you in a bay West of Cangas since Oct 8th. I am guessing that was right before you went on the hard. Will be wishing all the best luck as you venture South this weekend. Sea Yoo next week !
great update and please have a great time. see you folks on next Sunday's video
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome! what a nice start to the week , a new Sail Life video! I hope that the noise (rudder noise) turns out to be nothing serious
See you👍🏽
Dr. Gizmo strikes again!
vids keep getting better and better, although i did not think it was possible
Come on Ava, "Push your Luck!" Love your videos!
Hi guys I really enjoy watching Ava`s segments in the video`s as her personality shines through. Mads yours are technical Ava`s are artistic if that makes sense.
They make hard rubber bumpers that fit on small boat trailers for the boat to bump into after its winched onto the trailer. They usually have a 1/2 inch hole to run a bolt thru to mount them on the trailer. They are very tough and would work great for what you want to do.
Excellent !
Just a little comment to help the youtube algorithms...Thank you.
Looking good guys the sailing content is coming along nicely. I figured it would lol
"hopefully we won't be on the hard for too long"... spoken like a true saling channel :)
another great video.Awesome
I think the rudder will be ok, it just needs a little sanding.
Mads. you got me again; I blew coffee out my nose with the "exposed dangly bits" comment. Hope your rudder issue is not an issue at all. Another great episode, thanx.
I enjoyed the vid as always,.
15:58 a pallet wheel might fit that "shaft" perfectly. Not sure on spacing, but you can narrow them down. They make for excellent pulley wheels. Cut a nice groove with a grinder down the center and smooth it out with a bit of sand paper and they're perfect for soft line (even steel braided stuff doesn't wear them that much).
Hot pepper roulette what a game
Just when it starts getting exciting at 18 minutes, it’s over! I want longer videos! Wah!😢😢😢😢😅😅😅😂😂😂❤
Hi Mads and Ava, how is it going? We are waiting for you at the Algarve Coast, hope to see you soon again.
We enjoyed this episode so much😊 BR and we left a like 🖒
Ricci&Dirk from sailing suria
Another great video
If you put too many more devices on that NEMA network it's going to start smoking!
But I think it is a marvelous thing that the manufacturers have come together to create a network like that which is so easy to use.
Love the town visit. I always enjoy Eva’s input 😊
Great video once again! MSC10 looks to be a very nice unit. Seems to be mounted awfully close to the radar though...hope it works out like this!
That shouldn't be an issue :)
Finally....Some electronics.
Please mate go Portugal you gonna LOVE IT xxx
Good old Athena - more like Good and highly packed with altmost any electronics that can fit into her - Athena ;)
Even without a heading sensor you should be able to use the auto- helm, albeit with fewer functions. Point the boat in the heading you want and it should hold that heading.
Finally, someone using rivets.
Yep, mussels are grown, hanging on drop ropes from the floating rafts. Cheapest and most healthy and most environmentally friendly protein source available. Enjoy while you are there.
Hey guys, Don't forget to give an update on the anti-foul you applied cause it would be close to six months since you splashed Athena.
The cost of boat ownership in the UK, now there is topic. Largely down to the fees marinas can get away with charging. The Garmin seems like another neat box of tricks. I know people have commented on it before but with complexity comes some risk of losing it all with a lightning strike. I am sure you would cope fine as you have built it all and your technical abilities are top notch. If you check out sailing with Thomas YT channel he has a fully equipped Bavaria 55 and is now going through this nightmare. Beware of what you may lose and perhaps consider planning for the eventuality.
Good luck with the "on the hard". Cheers
you could probably use a poly roller for a boat trailer as a bow roller for the rope side.
I love the use of all your Americanisms, "SPIFFY" "FREAKIN AWESOME".. and the DIY stuff with all the use of the fore mentioned Americanisms. Keep up the good work and congrats on the official sailing channel. Lol
When I go on sailing around the world, I want Mads as my enginer!
I see Athena is almost to Porto today. Hope this “hop” along the coast was orca free. Until next week…Sea Yoo !!
Hi Faucet 😀 All is well aboard. Woke up early because there's a bit of weather blowing through. We're right at the entrance to the marina so it's a bit bumpy but it should die down in a few hours 🙂
Love your videos, guys! As you were mounting the gps thingy on the mast, it looked like the mount was steel going on a aluminum mast. I worry about galvanic corrosion. Can you isolate the steel with a rubber or phenolic washer in between? Just a thought.
i just hauled out my Ballad for a week in NL and it was 220 bux - in out and 8 days on the hard! i heard in Uk they charge 3000 for winter !!!!
I have a similar issue with my rudder in that under motor the helm seems stiff or sticky. It's fine under sail though. I hauled out this afternoon and will investigate tomorrow. Be interesting to know what you find. Also, I was anchored in that same spot a few weeks ago, it is tiny. Marina Punta Lagoa is just around the corner and has a very good yard. Not that that is any use to you now.
11:17 Now we get to watch Mads and Eve spice things up a bit by playing some Spanish Roulette.
I ❤️ ⛵️
Nice shot of the seagull pooping.
Haha thanks 😂
You didn't describe the sound from the rudder, but depending on the rudder and hull shape some boats start to resonate at higher speeds. The sound is usually lower in frequency than failing bearings, which i'm sure you are familiar with 😉The resonance shouldn't be anything to worry about, and i'm sure someone with more expertise in hydrodynamics can explain why this occurs
Have you considered a NavPod or something similar for the plotter at the helm? It would be pretty dang spiffy.
The Green Pepper Roulette
Chapters are great, you’ll have to stop calling her ‘good old’ at some point as the only existing part is the hull 😂😂
Nice bird poop! Good content!
Hi Mads and Ava, which video is the one covering your choice of anchoring intercom headsets? keep up the interesting visits:-)
How did you get the network cable into the mast? If you have a close up picture, it would be great to see it.
Respectfully suggest you change the name of Athena from SV to SS Athena (Starship).😉👍
Notwithstanding all the modern electronic navigation equipment are you still practicing the Celestial Navigation with a sextant, sight reduction and running fixes on plotting sheets.. ?
Hey Mads, have you thought of using an underwater acoustic transducer to scare away
attacking Orca killer Whales?
Yes although they are illegal to use on recreational boats in Portugal and Spain :)
OMG not another bird pooping video....keep up the good work 👍
Will there be any pranks toward the Swedish boat or vise versa?
An old Hispanic lady told me a bent stem on a pepper means hot and a straight stem is mild. I've found this is true.
I would love to see your locations and foreign language terms subtitled. Just a suggestion. Either way, I love your videos! 🤙
If you're going to stays for days inland in Galicia, IIRC, they have some free (in the wilderness) hotsprings.
I posted two comments but I think they got deleted because they had a link. I wanted to let you know that the spanish orca's observatory have information on the orcas (like last known location). Search for "orcaiberica".
How are the batteries working? did they lose capacity? It's hard to find reviews of those yellow batteries in the internet.
Hi guys! What was the name of the app you’re using to find anchorages? Can’t really hear what you’re saying in the video. Greetings from Sweden!
Since the MSC10 is so accurate, I hope you're not going to get false COG data when the mast is swinging heavily, e.g. in downwind conditions...
Nevertheless, another piece of cool gear! It almost seems as if it's your goal to collect the whole Garmin catalog 😉
That's what the additional sensors are for. Besides gps it has xyz rotation detection and and what sounds like an electronic compass.
When the boat rolls it will register that but will also detect that it didn't actually turn so it will take all that into account for the eventual data output.
I have Garmin xs1020 map new in box
So we missed out on Ava's tour of the historic nudist beach?? damn!
Do you have a radar reflector on top of the mast?
Yes 🙂 Although not at the very top. It's a large white cylinder 3/4 up the mast (front)
How much money did it cost. I really want to know
Dangled bits ?
Hello Madds. I’m currently looking to purchase 50 ft sandwich fiberglass sailing boat. In a previous video, like 5 years ago, you mentioned talking to specialist about redoing your sandwich deck. Could you recommend me to whom I could contact for that matter, as there is humidity in the hull.
I’m in southern Spain.
Many thanks.
Sebastien.
The next time you’re near an auto parts store you should stop and pick up an oil change kit. It’s a little rectangular piece of plastic that you can drop oil on, it’s reusable and it’ll tell you the quality of the oil so then you can actually change it when it needs to be changed rather than just change it on the hours basis it can see me a time and money and sometimes you might need to change it before the hour limits it’s a great lifesaver. Last time I picked one up in the US it was around $85 for the kit.
It appears that your GPS antenna bracket is stainless and your mast is aluminum. If your rivets are stainless you may have a future bimetallic corrosion problem.
What was the name of that app? I'm having some difficulty finding it, or at least what I thought I heard.
Navily
Is it supposed to be in "No audio'-mode for the seagull shots?
Shots or shits?
Hmm that's the second time that's happened. I might have a software issue to look into :)
@@SailLife 😂
I'm dressing up like an uncalibrated MSC10 for Halloween
