Ahoy everyone!
My name is Nike and I have been living and sailing on my sailboat Karl since 2013. After a massive refit marathon, I finally cast off the lines and learnt to solo sail my 37-foot Reinke Super 10 that I called "Karl". I am publishing videos (at the moment every two weeks) about the ups and downs of living, repairing and sailing my boat.
Since January 2022, I have a new permanent crew member: my furry friend Boga. When I started out, I did not know much about boat repair or solo sailing. Since I am still out there, I hope that my story inspires others, to chase their dreams, even if they might think they are not cut out for it. There is always a way, so I'll see you out there!

Thanks to everybody who has supported the creation of these video and has shared this epic adventure with me so far. It would not have been the same without you!
Lots of ocean love, Nike🧜♀, Boga 🐾 and KARL ⛵

Nike, you are one of the most hard core kick arse awesome people I've ever met, maximum respect from this old dog.X
Change is always good. Spending time alone and collecting your thoughts is healthy and productive. I look forward to your return. Keep smiling and sail on.
Yes, I feel the same way about it. It’s a good and important “exercise” 😊
Change is always good!
Are you serious?
@@ottifantiwaalkes9289 (change for the best, of course)
Niki good to take some time off and let your soul rest. Also, and I think a lot of RUclipsrs miss this, we don't watch to see adventure, but we do watch to see you. To see you live and experience everything. To get to know you like you are our friend, because that is what we are missing in our lives. Lots of love and support in your time off.
Love and many hugs to you Nikki. Appreciate your candor and openness. Safe travels and we will look forward to seeing on the tube when you are ready. ❤
Sounds as if you're going stir crazy and are badly in need of a change of scenery - enjoy! 👍
😅 definitely some inner turmoil going on. But nothing that cannot be fixed with some souls searching and checking my priorities 😊 at least I hope so 😂
I don't miss sweating on that dock, it's a beautiful place but boats are made for moving and its always had to feel 'stuck'... it is also incredibly hard to juggle multiple jobs - being the filmmaker/youtuber and doing something good for the world and maintaining a boat - I know some days it is hard! You are an inspiration though and I know you'll figure out what is best for you, beat that burnout and get back to doing what you love (what ever it is you decide that is!) x
Nike, I have followed you for many years.I am in my 70s and enjoy so much the adventures. You have to do what makes you happy, hopefully you will be back charged up to continue entertaining us with your wonderful life and resilient charm.
Just love your name fukgoogle Nike is a great gal cheers n beers mate Marty Australia
It's all good.
Enjoy your time away and stay safe. See you when you get back.
Have great chill time, Nike!
Thanks!
Safe travels, & fair winds... We look forward to it all! Thanx !
A periodic reset and some introspection is always a good thing on any journey. Travel safe, Nike, and we'll catch you on the flip side.
I copy that!
Buén viaje y hasta pronto!!!
I've watched you off and on even from the days when you first partnered with Karl. Not sure why, but still proud of you and hope to meet you out there some day!
Thanks for posting and sharing. Best wishes to Karl and crew.
I sure do miss you Nike🥵🥵...I can't wait till you come back...I have been going back the past couple of months and rewatching previous episodes
Will be back sooooon!
I'm glad you're taking this time to pause and re-evaluate things, to be gentle with yourself. Really looking forward to awesome new sailing adventures with you and Karl! :)
Cool, I enjoy watching your adventures.
Take care. Hope your dog is going with you. If nothing else he will help you to chill and smell the roses
4:52 - I think this summarizes all of your content and the journey you shoved. Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing
Have a good time now and that you keep on doing your sailing films soon❤⛵️🤗
Like everyone else, I have absolutely adored you journey so far. But you need to do what's right for you. Thankyou for sharing the ups and downs. Bon Voyage :)
Nike. I liked this video and have always enjoyed your stories, an anchor when the seas are too much. I don't really know what I want to say, but thanks.
It is important to take care of yourself. All the best!
You have accomplished quite a lot since I watched your first video about Karl. You should be very proud of all you have done and great adventures you have had. Enjoy your time back home . Thankyou for sharing your world with all of us.
Lovely video. Enjoy the break. I'll see you next time.
Thank you for your authentic share... very relatable. I wish you lots of nourishing rest and inspiration for your next chapter. A bit of distance and staying with your questions (round after round of answers, drilling deeper and deeper into your why) works wonders :)
I get it. I understand. I hope you find everything you are looking for. Blessings to you and your efforts. 🌞⛵️🌴
Deep rest is good, take care!
😀😀👍👍👍❤ Have fun and thank you for your videos. Bye from Seattle, WA. (Northwest USA)
Always a good idea to take a few deep breaths before tackling a bottom job. Have fun in Germany, and bring us all back some strudel!
Looking forward to your return. Have enjoyed all you have done. Take care. :)
I wish you all the best!
I love your idea about a canal boat of some sort. I'll be watching you then I hope, so get on with life cause I'm 69 and won't be around forever. :)
I sure have enjoyed traveling with you ever since I discovered you changing engines. Hope your break/vacation is GREAT, and hope to see you and Boga again in the near future. Best wishes.
Thanks Mark!
You're doing great. Go and chill. Refuel. Decide your needs and wants. It's Your life to enjoy in all aspects. Hugsss angel. 😊
Enjoy your “vacation”/retreat. Video was great as always!
Thanks for posting Nike!
Cheers SV Good Karma as Grins.
You do whatever you need to do for your own health and wellbeing as we/I will be here to follow you in whatever format you decide is right for you if/on your return. x
Enjoy your vacation back home, chill out and relax a little. You have earned it after all the hard work you've done.
Sounds a really good plan, Nike. I’ve followed your channel since Karl ‘Day One’ … it’s been quite the ride!!! A sabbatical is timely, and never wasted. Thank you for sharing your adventures so honestly and openly. Have fun back in Germany. 😊🎉
Nike, I have been watching since nearly the beginning and I have always appreciated your honesty. I am glad that you are taking time to recharge and I hope that you can return to RUclips. Either way, follow your bliss.
I am glad you are taking care of yourself. we love you and we will be here when you return.
Relax, enjoy no pressure for a while ! See you ....
Hi Nike,
You really did an awesome job the last years, especially with that recycling- project.
It’s fair enough and time you take a break and a “vacation”.
I would like to thank you (again) and support you with a small donation and wish you all the best for the time ahead!!
You may look forward, because Germany is so beautiful in spring!!
Look after yourself, after all your health and well being is the most important part of your journey. Chin up, Love you!
Get strong Pretty One and hurry back soon. I miss you already.x
we will wait for you as long as necessary … Jac
Thanks for your patience! 🫶🏽
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. I could sense your growing workload was having an effect on you, and think you're needing this reset and simplification to restructure your life back towards your original direction a little more. Whatever you choose and whichever direction you go, we wish you well!
Gute Reise nach Hause ;)
I've been watching you for years, you always come through.... good luck!
Thank you! So far, there has always been a way and I am looking forward to find this next path 🙏🏼
Great job
All the best and enjoy the time off, Nike. Your saying goodbye to the boat moment was very intimate, thanks for sharing it! It is funny, I do the same when I am alone on my boat, talking to it, petting it, as if it is a living thing. And then again, I am sure it is somehow, as if you take care of it, it takes care of you. So it deserves all the love we have to give ;-) Greets from Portugal, Frank
Merci pour cette belle aventure, j’espère vous revoir avec Karl. 👍😊Je vous suis depuis le début et rêve parfois d’aller vous rejoindre avec mon chien. 🤪
Be safe on your travels home. Your subscribers will be here.
Semper Fidelis
Thanks for sharing, Nike. Take the time you need, we're all on your side, however you want to move forward.
Thanks for ur kind words 🙏🏼
After you told your story, I felt it when you kissed Karl, your base and companion, stay save.
may the force be with you
You are a true warrior!! 🙏❤💪
I remember way way back when you first met Karl. What a mess!!!
Whatever you do, good luck and best wishes
Here's my two cents: as for healthy, you look amazing and have that healthy "glow" about you! As for taking a break: we all need a break now and then. I'm on break from responsibility now. I'll be in Italy Friday followed by Albania, Croatia, France and Spain! You're welcome to join me and my brother on the Camino del Norte. We'll be walking 520 miles beginning April 29th! A good long walk is good for the soul!
I have been following you for years, but I fell in love with you after episode #33. I have worked around rotating equipment and their alignment. What you did was phenomenal. When or if you return, I will be here.....From Texas with Love....
Enjoy your time at home in Germany! I’m also taking time out on my boat in our Whitsundays Islands. I’m also wrung out from running my youth charity & some of the hassles I’ve had to face in the past year. Tshüß Bernd
I'd say that- Karl's permanent lackings as a true cruiser, then COVID, and then your foot injury, had you tied to Panama. And that the plastics recycling was an effort to make being tied in Panama into something worthwhile, after knowing in your heart that abandoning blue water sailing adventures was the only real option. So yes, life evaluation time!
Hi Nike,
It's not always easy to be a sailor,
The sea is in your Heart and it can't be removed,
For what I have saw of you, you're a good sailor, you're a captain and you're an entire crew at the same time.
You're a very courageous lady,
You're a realistic person that have the ability to choose your path to respect your limits, just like you're doing now,
We are going to be there when you'll come back at sea,
Thank you sharing your moments, it help us to be better sailors,
Vielen dank,
Good luck
Enjoy your retreat, think some good thoughts, take care of yourself and little Boca,but don't be a hermit for too long 🧘🤸🏼♀️🐕
If you don't carry on with Karol you still have me as a fan as long as you're channel is up and showing old videos I will be here enjoying them
That seems to be a correct decision! Be sure - we'll be waiting for your new adventures and stories! For some reason there is no videos from Paul for almost a month!?
Have a good flight and good rest, Nike!
We love you we will miss you but we completely understand take time for yourself enjoy and we will see you soon ❤
Hi Nika. Good for you that you felt it coming. Getting into a burnout is no fun. Happened to me as I kept going. Get your head straight and Boga will help you. Goodluck!
Take good advantage of the break,
We’ll see you again later !
Hmmm,,,interesting. Good move!
we all need a break to reset. Enjoy the break.
Being with family will help align your happiness
I really appreciate your video's and the transpancary in them. I hope you get a great rejuvenation in Germany and with friends. If you are ever interested in adventures in the Alaska to Baja space let me know. Listen to [Boga -- your dog -- not sure how to write]. Good dogs are wise. Gute Winde.
Yeah starting a company especially an NGO is consuming and it does take 2-3-5- years before in can kind of run on "autopilot". So if you can find some people to outsource some of the work that make plenty of sense. I love that you talk to Karl and gave him a kiss before leaving! 🙂
Have a good trip we will be missing you!
Cheers,
a.
Yeah I definitely underestimated the work load a bit and (as so often) thought I could squeeze more into my days than I actually could. But hopefully with a bit of restructuring, I will be able to move things into a sustainable flow.
Burnout is toxic. It hink you recognized the danger signals in time to do something about it before it would become really bad.
Take your time to recover
Reflection often takes time; at least if one is serious about it. Enjoy the time. :)
Yes, that’s true. It’s not something one can hurry. In my first attempt, I tried to hurry it a bit but then I noticed I had to slow down a notch ☺️👍
Scarcity leads to agency. You've had adventure, you evolved, now as the world is going as it is these days, no problem with enjoying where we're at, hope you enjoy the venture home and family for as long as you want.
Enjoy the roses 😊
I have watched since your first episode. Enjoy your personal time.
Thank you Dale. So great to hear that you have stayed on board for all these years!
i like it most when you are channeling your energies toward global problems and working with ppl to solve those problems like plastics global warming endangered species etc good luck in the future
Thanks Mike! I do very much enjoy that part, too.
... missing you...
Will be back sooooon. Thanks for your patience 🫶🏽
At last! It's about time, from the outside. So glad 4 U you're taking some time for yourself.
Sailing inward is to rediscover the harbor from which one embarked. Whitman would have admired your journey back to the essence, your attunement to the inner winds. The Stoics would remind you: "It is by changing course, not by doubling the effort, that one finds the way." Your pause is not a retreat but a chart towards a new voyage, where each wave, each gust, becomes a lesson in harmony. Fair winds on this inward journey, where the only horizon is the joy you reclaim.🤞
You ever thought if doing some backpacking.You get a mix of adventure but more interaction if you want it.SRI LANKA looks beautiful
Du wirst den besten Weg für dich schon finden!(oder eh schon wissen?!?)all the best!!!
Danke dir! Es gibt einen groben Plan, aber der wurde in den letzten Monaten auch noch ein paar Mal hin und her geworfen. 😅 work in progress…🤞🏼
Nike, it may be time for a new boat!!
Bevor Stress in Burn out endet, ist es immer ein weise Entscheidung, die Reißleine zu ziehen. Richtige Entscheidung, ein wenig den Kopf in gutem, alten deutschen grauen Wetter abzukühlen, durchzulüften und Kraft zu tanken. ;-) Ich wünsche viel von selbiger, und eine gute Erholung!
Enjoy your vacation! I love your videos!
You could get help for both of your careers! Delos has onshore editors. La Vagabond has an onboard nanny.
I'm sure you have friends to help with plastic extrusions.
Maybe let Boga do some camera work for you when you get back?
In any case, I love your work and I hope that it helps you be happy!
Courage
…chill and come back soon. Maybe let us know when this will be. Miss you already 😊 All the best, Oliver
Love your videos - stop being a carer for other people - the world does not need to be saved - rather care for yourself and save yourself - a boat was ot built to be in ports - go sailing - and live your life...with joy
There's always a visit to coastal Nova Scotia!
One of the places on this lovely planet that I surely would love to visit during my life ☺️
Nike, your beautiful. You do you can’t wait to see what’s next
Nike, your best videos are when you sail. Get out and do some sailing!
Good to take some time off.
Do realize that in the end we are a social species and we need a communitie to be able to reflect our being.
Take your time and dont feel obliged to continue what you bin up to till now.
Respect for all your effort!
Tschüss, 😘
Jo, mal wieder nen bisschen zu Hause nach dem Rechten sehen, ist doch auch prima; Da freut sich bestimmt die family u Lüneburg ist doch auch ein schönes Stadtchen....!Alles Gute;
Where are you my freind.?? Miss you.
Your theme song early on was as beautiful as you are! Hope you will share the name and access thanks for sharing your challenges..
Ahhh yes I loved those tracks, too. You can find a couple here in this playlist ruclips.net/p/PLXRq1t-_HOXssn-CE9AqAKj7k99Me9oRJ&feature=shared
