Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers, I wanted to ask when do you get your sales? Then you will be sailing congratulations again on your boat and 100,000 subscribers.
I have followed you since day 1 , it seems like a lifetime. You have reached this milestone and fully deserved it. The craftsmen in the boat yard are amazing , you could not have had a better crew . Also both sets of parents and all the friends who have helped you deserve a big thank you as well . Now for the next chapter! !
What a monumental episode! (To quote MP) to leave the yard, to power around the coast with a purring engine, to have your first anchorage and to have given Caillou & Licky a better life. There really is nothing you can't do with hard work, a few friends and the support of 100,000 (Or Million if you are Ben) May you have good wind in your sails and countless happy miles with the beautifully restored Yaba! =)
I love how your comment is filled with easter eggs from the episode. It really shows that you paid attention to detail and that means a lot to us! Thank you so much Simon! ♥
You might consider having two separate lines on that dingy for safety especially if you are traveling at night. Wish I had one of those visors that let you see all around you, that would be neat. It might also be nice to have Yabá visit the place where you bought her for them to see. Thank you for taking us along. Congratulations on 1000,000 subs. I think I was one of the first 10 subscribers on your channel and watched every show. Goooo Yabá!!! 👍
Well done, I cannot believe its been 3.5 years in the boatyard. You have taken so many people on an adventure, that they would have never experienced for themselves. I cannot wait to see Yaba under sail. The sound of silence when a noisy diesel is turned off is priceless. The next chapter has just begun.
I have also watched you both from the start, well done good luck on your future journeys. you have both made me smile. MP you are a star he is a lucky man to have you in his life. best regards from the UK.
I am SO GLAD that Odd Craft suggested to check out your channel 3 + years ago... It has been a blessing and an honor to be invited along your AWESOME journey from a sinking vessel to your BEAUTIFUL dream boat... Thxz Guys.. Luv From BC Canada
This channel is all about the romance. The romance for that wonderful old boat, the romance between each other and ultimately the romance for the adventure that sailing can bring. I'm in love with it all ❤
Coucou je suis français je comprends pas l anglais mais je me régale de vous voir tous les vidéos que vous faites continuer sais toujours un plaisir de vous suivre
I have to admit....I was one of the folks way back at the beginning that thought you should abandon the refurbishment of Yaba, and instead just put the money into a newer boat that required less work. But I was definitely wrong! I've followed you from day 1, and have enjoyed every minute of your journey thus far. I'm sure the feeling of satisfaction you get from sailing a boat that you built yourselves is much greater than buying another of the production fiberglass boats we see on other sailing channels. Congrats on 100,000 subscribers, and on starting the next phase of your journey! I'll be following along!
We are happy and proud to be among the 100,000 and growing followers! Yes, you all worked with love and sweat; now, live the dream! May all your voyages be uneventful. We shall support you as long as you allow us to be part of the crew. Now, let us finish up the remaining tasks and get going!
I've been a subscriber from the beginning. Life is a Book full of chapters. The people that helped you bring life back to Yaba are now woven into the fabric of your life. For us who watch your channel it brings joy and a great big smile to our hearts. We are looking forward to your next chapter of your future post.
Parabéns pelos 100k, e pelo término desse desafio que foi a recuperação do Yabá. Acompanhei vocês por todo esse desafio, desde a chegada do Yabá a Marina em Guarujá, com o incentivo do Lucca e da Roberta do veleiro ODD,na criação do vosso canal do RUclips. Vi a incansável luta que foi fazer os primeiros reparos para conter os vazamentos para poderem navegar para o estaleiro em Navegantes . Pude acompanhar a desmontagem das peças que estavam totalmente podres pela ação do tempo sem manutenção. Parabéns pela perseverança em querer fazer a reforma do Yabá, percebi algumas vezes que vocês ficavam um quanto decepcionados quando a longarina e as cavernas não podiam ser recuperadas. Você não desistiram e hoje o Yabá faz a sua primeira viagem com sucesso. O fato de vocês manterem algumas partes do antigo Yabá como o bico de proa, o antigo mastro, parte da coberta e a retifica do motor e etc... fez com que a energia do Yabá se mantivesse viva. Desejo a vocês que tenham muito sucesso nessa nova trajetória de vida e que doravante tenham mares calmos nos vossos empreendimentos. Parabenizo também os carpinteiros do estaleiro que demonstraram os seus conhecimentos na arte de fabricação de barcos de madeira. Saúde e bons ventos para vocês. Abraço
As hard as it was to imagine Yabá making sail when you guys fought to keep her from foundering on your way to the shipyard, everyone has done a fabulous job getting her restored⛵️It’s great seeing you guys out with the boats❣️Also, congrats on the 100,000 subscribers💯
We are an aging couple from England and have watched every episode. Congratulation on your maiden voyage and achieving 1,00000 subscribers. We feel every emotion with you. The most beautiful boat afloat. We wish you every happiness.
I still can’t get over how beautiful Yabá looks at anchor. We know you still have a fair amount of work left to be fully livable and sea worthy, but looking forward to you really getting under way. May you have fair winds and a following sea in all your new adventures. ❤️
WOW, guys. Best thumbnail ever. This picture does say a thousand words! You should frame this one and hang it in the boat. Standing, fully rigged mast, in the water, fully polished and ship shape, Yaba' holds its souls full of love. Ben's battle-hardened look of victory to M P's now perfect smile, WE the 100K are so proud of you. Well done!
Your ship builders are the enablers of your dream. There are a lot of Patrons and others who donated that helped the builders to pay their bills and to happily go about their work. Many people and family behind the scenes and yourselves. Nice one guys. I will be here until I can't be, watching you go about your lives for as long as you choose. Thankyou.
She sits so proud awesome job to the Yaba crew and builders everybody showed so much talent went in to her she's good for 100 more years thank you for sharing your dreams with us I'll be watching for ever Sunday night thank you again John and Marie
Been with you vicariously for a few years now. I can't afford to send youtubers money but I just try to help with the likes and occasional comments. It is really amazing what you two and your crew have done with that boat. Can't wait to see her under sail! 😅
Damn, this is a beautiful moment! Seeing you, heading out for your "semi"-maiden voyage and hitting 100.000 subscibers on the same day you cast anchor out on the blue for the first time...priceless. Fair winds and may the waves be always kind to you! 😁 I hope you get your sails up pretty fast, so you can be real POIRATES. YARR!
MP - You absolutely said it perfectly! FINALLY! Now we’ve got four famous blue water travelers from Brazil! You, Ben, Roberta, and Duca! ❤️. I’ve been a follower since day one. Words cannot express how happy I am for both you and Ben! You’ve put a long and hard difficult chapter behind you now. I do so look forward to what is yet to come, as you travel into the future! You’re both rockstars 100%. I congratulate and wish you the very best!
Been watching since you rolled in with all pumps running and the thought of building a new boat with an old boat in the way!!!! NOW with sailing "fine furniture" boat, I couldn't be happier. I'm 75 and living my dream thru you guys. SO good job guys, waiting for Sunday like never before.
I came to your channel when Roberta and Duca introduced you years back. It’s been a lot of fun watching you make your dream happen. Congratulations on all you’ve done and best wished for all you’ve yet to do. Hug the dogs for me please.
As others have stated, it's hard to believe it's been 3.5 years since you were introduced by Duka and Roberta. I've followed you since then and will freely admit I was skeptical at the amount of damage that was revealed during the initial tear down. It's really wonderful to see the restoration and Yabá is a beautiful boat. She'll be even more beautiful once she has wings to spread. As an aside, MP you have really lovely handwriting! I hope your log fills with many great voyages!
This was the episode that was in every aspect a huge milestone. Congratulations for the first sea trial and the 100k subscribers. For Ben: try the hammock on bungee cords 🤣
Congratulations you two. I remember when you guys pulled it out of the water.... holy crap... 3.5 years ago. So cool to see you on the open water after so much work.
"I still can't believe how incredible your schooner Yaba looks at your new Anchor. Although work is still to make her seaworthy, I'm excited for her to set sail as soon as possible. May the winds be in your favor, and may Our Lady of the Sea watch over you in all your new adventures." "Thanks, MP, for your gratitude for the support you've provided to the 100,000 subscribers of your channel. Your heartfelt words truly meant a lot. I want to sincerely say, 'You're welcome,' from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for your weekly videos, GeoRom."
remember how we discovered Yaba, and a team of fellow carpenters made it their “masterpiece”, tell them that there are 100K of us who are proud of them!
I knew years ago that the waterworks would flow when it was time to leave the yard. What an amazing coincidence that you reached 100k on your maiden voyage! You two are the best and your videos are always perfect. I can't wait to see where you go from here on my "Coffee With Yaba' " Sundays! See you next week and thank you for sharing your journey with us.
At 74, I've seen most of my life, but have enjoyed so many moments with my wife and kids, and the adventures I have experienced. Continue to love each other and be VERY careful on this great journey we call LIFE.I an former NAVY and sometimes miss the sounds , smells and motion involved in every journey!!! My love......bob in the usa(Idaho).
We've watched so many milestones that you guys have reached while rebuilding Yaba but none surpass the maiden voyage. 100,000 subscribers it just a short stop to a 200,000 and beyond. Congratulation for reaching these many milestones.
As a picky subscriber, I appreciate not only all of the hard work you put into Yaba but all of the behind the scenes hard work to create this content for people like me. Excellent job.❤
I’m sooo proud of you. It goes beyond words! MP. You are so adorable! It’s rather magical the way the channel has transformed being at sea is quite the difference in the way your channel presents itself. You’ve come so far. ❤thanks for sharing
I’d love to see the two of you build a wooden dinghy to serve as Yaba’s tender. That would be a fun project to watch and could be a great addition to your home.
Extraordinary! You have turned a rotten wooden boat into a fabulous modern vessel, and developed your skills to new levels. Keep, working on new ideas on the safety processes Yaba needs and lots more.
It is truly amazing. The fact you guy originally went in thinking you just needed a keel. Then it snowballed into darn near the entire boat! Still looking forward to the "rebuilding our boat in 10 minutes" (our however you want to make it) video. I imagine it will be your most watched video. Congratulations on leaving the boat yard permanently. 👏 👏 👏
started to watch you at the beginning of a major health scare never expecting to be around to see you set sail but am glad to be still around to see you set sail
What an amazing transformation from the worn eaten, sinking vessel to the beautiful Yaba of today. When Roberta and Duca first introduced you to us, I started watching partly expecting to see Yaba at the bottom of the ocean. When you survived, it amazed me and I was compelled to follow your journey. Amazing is to inadequate of a description of you two and the Yaba story. I’m proud of you and the whole Yaba team😁 God’s Blessings from beautiful Cobbs Creek Virginia USA💕
Quite a journey , From buying a rotten sinking party boat to moving out with a sound renewed sailing yacht. Hull dry inside, engine runs well, Internal systems work. Now for the Sailing equipment ! Rig for sailing and show off Yuba's laundry! Good luck to Yuba and her crew.
After watching every episode i don't feel you are strangers at all..... just friends who i have not met... yet! I can feel MP's huge heart and kind spirit giving us all a big hug and in this day and age that is a awesome feeling to have! Can't wait to see Yaba' with full sails. Cheers!
Best of luck, it has been a journey. Many hardships overcome, many evenings celebrated and many more to come. I can’t wait to see her with new rags on!
There is no reason it should've been this long for y'all to hit 100K subscribers!! These people are gonna be so glad they are here now!!! Can't wait for the rest of what is coming!!!
Hi Ben and MP, So happy for you, great achievement. I have been watching you from when you left the dock in the old leaky broken and sad Yaba. Y have done amazing and now in the shining new Yaba, Congratulations!!!!
I’m sitting here watching your video, and grinning like a fool! I am so happy for you! A long three years of hard work culminating in beginning to live a new chapter of life.
I was with you from the beginning and now you are on the water. I know that those of us that have been here weather new or old are so happy to see you reaping the fruits of your hard work and so many that were helping. Fair sailing! from Tucson Arizona.
My gosh, I remember when you were first introduced to a you tube audience with a sinking boat. What grit and determination you both have to work so incredibly hard for your dream. You are both so deserving of a voyage full of wonder.
From the moment OD Life Crafting told me about your channel, I subscribed and have been following you more than 3 years. From a leaky boat to this jewel. What a ride it was.
AWESOME, 3.5 years in the shipyard. You and ALL the people the VERY TALENTED people in the shipyard was just a great and enjoyable adventure to watch. Yaba under sail will be the next great adventures to enter in your journal. Looking forward to them!
We feel like part of the Yabá family, having watched each episode for 3.5 years. Looked forward to each episode and can’t wait to share your next chapter! Congratulations to you both! 🤗🥳🥂🍾
Oh my gosh I'm crying! Happy tears, happy day! You must be sooo proud of yourselves! Thank you for bringing joy and goodness into our lives and may Yaba look after you as you have her. Awesome! just awesome
It's all been said about how special each and every moment of this journey has beem. I am sitting here with a smug look on my face (as though I really had anything to do with it all) and such a feeling of contentment that it's frightening! So much to look forward to----and at 80, each moment is treasured. Thank you, your crew, and the four footed canine marine element.
100k hearts beat in the Yabá family!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so so so so much!!!!
Cheers to each one of you 🤎x 100.000!!!!!!!!!!
Buon mare ragazzi e che il vento vi sia sempre favorevole!!!
Are y'all finished painting? Can't wait to see the sails go up for the first time !
Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers, I wanted to ask when do you get your sales? Then you will be sailing congratulations again on your boat and 100,000 subscribers.
Set up a camping hammock between the masts, would be cheap and easy
Congratulations on 100K subs 💪
I have followed you since day 1 , it seems like a lifetime. You have reached this milestone and fully deserved it. The craftsmen in the boat yard are amazing , you could not have had a better crew . Also both sets of parents and all the friends who have helped you deserve a big thank you as well . Now for the next chapter! !
Exactly well said go yaba cheers n beers Marty Australia
Ditto
From Ontario, Canada, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
God what ah nice ship. I can't get over how good Yaba looks compared to what it looked like when you first sailed to the Shipyard...sinking.
What a monumental episode! (To quote MP) to leave the yard, to power around the coast with a purring engine, to have your first anchorage and to have given Caillou & Licky a better life. There really is nothing you can't do with hard work, a few friends and the support of 100,000 (Or Million if you are Ben) May you have good wind in your sails and countless happy miles with the beautifully restored Yaba! =)

@@SailingYaba Of course we pay attention! ❤
Yes, 100,000,000 is a pretty good score.
Congratulations!!!!!!❤🎉🍾🎈🎊 🎉
Selamat siang kakaku,, semoga pelajarannya menyenangkan❤❤🎉🎉🎉
You might consider having two separate lines on that dingy for safety especially if you are traveling at night. Wish I had one of those visors that let you see all around you, that would be neat.

I am SO GLAD that Odd Craft suggested to check out your channel 3 + years ago... It has been a blessing and an honor to be invited along your AWESOME journey from a sinking vessel to your BEAUTIFUL dream boat... Thxz Guys.. Luv From BC Canada
Found Yaba, the same way. From Victoria BC.
Your writing is exquisite.
Sea water on her new hull at last. That is what we were waiting for. Now she is a sea going vessel. Bon Voyage!
Whats going on seabee?
This channel is all about the romance. The romance for that wonderful old boat, the romance between each other and ultimately the romance for the adventure that sailing can bring. I'm in love with it all ❤
That's beautiful! Thank you!
Make that two ❤ ! I am a hopeless romantic but you know what? I love ❤️ it!
Coucou je suis français je comprends pas l anglais mais je me régale de vous voir tous les vidéos que vous faites continuer sais toujours un plaisir de vous suivre
Can't wait to see her all dressed up in her new sails. She's going to look even more beautiful.

The guys in the yard will be lost without you two and Yabá.
Just swing a hammock between the two masts. Who said it has to be that high up 😂
I’m happy for the two of you 👍👍👍👍
Been with you vicariously for a few years now. I can't afford to send youtubers money but I just try to help with the likes and occasional comments. It is really amazing what you two and your crew have done with that boat. Can't wait to see her under sail! 😅
She is a beautiful boat. Fair winds
YEARS. We've been waiting YEARS for this episode. Congrats.
Yaba looks so big in the water It is like house in the sea, Congratsguys you deserved it.
Damn, this is a beautiful moment! Seeing you, heading out for your "semi"-maiden voyage and hitting 100.000 subscibers on the same day you cast anchor out on the blue for the first time...priceless. Fair winds and may the waves be always kind to you! 😁 I hope you get your sails up pretty fast, so you can be real POIRATES. YARR!

CONGRATS! YAHOOO!☝❤✌👍💪😁🇵🇭
So perfect , you leave safe harbor , begin your new chapter , and hit 100,000 . You had a lot less than 100 when i came aboard .
Ben and MP, you are two amazing people! I’m so happy for you and look forward to the future adventures. Oh, MP you brought a tear to my eyes! Cheers
At 74, I've seen most of my life, but have enjoyed so many moments with my wife and kids, and the adventures I have experienced. Continue to love each other and be VERY careful on this great journey we call LIFE.I an former NAVY and sometimes miss the sounds , smells and motion involved in every journey!!!

We've watched so many milestones that you guys have reached while rebuilding Yaba but none surpass the maiden voyage. 100,000 subscribers it just a short stop to a 200,000 and beyond. Congratulation for reaching these many milestones.
Many tears fell as I saw those guys waving from shore. Open seas ahead! Fair winds, my friends.
As a picky subscriber, I appreciate not only all of the hard work you put into Yaba but all of the behind the scenes hard work to create this content for people like me. Excellent job.❤
Absolutely amazing. Y’all did a wonderful job. Congratulations!!!
Congratulation! And “FINALLY” must be your password, your lucky charm .
Continue to be like this forever .
That was me .... hehe ;) wow really you guys saw that . lmao
Congratulations YABA!! 100K !! So well deserved you two.
Thank you so much!!
Keep on keeping on and I will certainly keep watching.😉❤
I’m sooo proud of you. It goes beyond words! MP. You are so adorable! It’s rather magical the way the channel has transformed being at sea is quite the difference in the way your channel presents itself. You’ve come so far. ❤thanks for sharing
Yaba's true beauty wasn't revealed until she was in her element. Thank you for sharing. From the high plains of North Central Montana USA.
I’d love to see the two of you build a wooden dinghy to serve as Yaba’s tender. That would be a fun project to watch and could be a great addition to your home.
Extraordinary! You have turned a rotten wooden boat into a fabulous modern vessel, and developed your skills to new levels. Keep, working on new ideas on the safety processes Yaba needs and lots more.
Yay. .101k. Thank you for making my Sunday morning s ❤
Wishing you fair winds and happy times. Congrats on completing a big milestone
Thank you for all the hard work in making these excellent videos.
It is truly amazing. The fact you guy originally went in thinking you just needed a keel. Then it snowballed into darn near the entire boat! Still looking forward to the "rebuilding our boat in 10 minutes" (our however you want to make it) video. I imagine it will be your most watched video. Congratulations on leaving the boat yard permanently. 👏 👏 👏
How wonderfull...you've worked so hard for this.Good luck for your future travels and finitions on YABA.. I 'll be following you every week .
started to watch you at the beginning of a major health scare never expecting to be around to see you set sail but am glad to be still around to see you set sail
Congrats on 100k and getting Yaba safetly out to sea. She looks beautiful and you should be so proud of your achievement ❤
What an amazing transformation from the worn eaten, sinking vessel to the beautiful Yaba of today.

After watching every episode i don't feel you are strangers at all..... just friends who i have not met... yet! I can feel MP's huge heart and kind spirit giving us all a big hug and in this day and age that is a awesome feeling to have! Can't wait to see Yaba' with full sails. Cheers!
The timing of this is so amazing. 2 completely different projects and both Yaba and Tally Ho are at sea almost at the same time in a long while
Now we just wait for Sarinda to get seaworthy too.
Best of luck, it has been a journey. Many hardships overcome, many evenings celebrated and many more to come. I can’t wait to see her with new rags on!
Congratulations to one of the most deserving sailing channels on RUclips!
Wow, thank you so much!
I love the feel of leaving port and into open ocean. You feel the power and freedom of open water. Great day for all of you. Congratulations.
Nothing more exciting than getting to 100K subscribers on your maiden voyage!!!😊🎉❤ Whoot Whoot
There is no reason it should've been this long for y'all to hit 100K subscribers!! These people are gonna be so glad they are here now!!! Can't wait for the rest of what is coming!!!
Hi Ben and MP, So happy for you, great achievement. I have been watching you from when you left the dock in the old leaky broken and sad Yaba. Y have done amazing and now in the shining new Yaba, Congratulations!!!!
I’m sitting here watching your video, and grinning like a fool! I am so happy for you! A long three years of hard work culminating in beginning to live a new chapter of life.
I was with you from the beginning and now you are on the water. I know that those of us that have been here weather new or old are so happy to see you reaping the fruits of your hard work and so many that were helping. Fair sailing! from Tucson Arizona.
I am so PROUD of you Guys! AND I am Proud to be one of the first twenty Subscribers to follow your EPIC Journey!
My gosh, I remember when you were first introduced to a you tube audience with a sinking boat. What grit and determination you both have to work so incredibly hard for your dream. You are both so deserving of a voyage full of wonder.
From the moment OD Life Crafting told me about your channel, I subscribed and have been following you more than 3 years. From a leaky boat to this jewel. What a ride it was.
Me too, that's how it happened. For anyone saying that there is no value in doing a shoutout for another channel, isn't worth it...there you go.
Congratulations. She is a beauty. Well done. Another chapter ahead. You are young, don't waste a minute! It all passes so quickly!
Congratulations you Two. Love Watching your progress since day one and all the effort to prevent Yaba from sinking to what she is this day. ❤😊
I’ve watched for about 6months.. and I’m so happy for you guys… I say a little prayer for you both every day 🙏😄⛵️
It was like watching your new born taking their first steps.....ye should be proud of what ye have achieved, and look forward to the future
AWESOME, 3.5 years in the shipyard. You and ALL the people the VERY TALENTED people in the shipyard was just a great and enjoyable adventure to watch. Yaba under sail will be the next great adventures to enter in your journal. Looking forward to them!
We feel like part of the Yabá family, having watched each episode for 3.5 years. Looked forward to each episode and can’t wait to share your next chapter! Congratulations to you both! 🤗🥳🥂🍾
Oh my gosh I'm crying! Happy tears, happy day! You must be sooo proud of yourselves! Thank you for bringing joy and goodness into our lives and may Yaba look after you as you have her. Awesome! just awesome
It's all been said about how special each and every moment of this journey has beem. I am sitting here with a smug look on my face (as though I really had anything to do with it all) and such a feeling of contentment that it's frightening! So much to look forward to----and at 80, each moment is treasured. Thank you, your crew, and the four footed canine marine element.
Omg I cried with happiness to see you motor out of the river for your first ocean voyage.
Love watching you guys ticking boxes 🎉
