    I believe these are the loveliest sailing films on YT.

      Yup. Great cinematography. No stress. No phony drama or click bait thumbnails. Just beautiful sailing on a beautiful boat with beautiful people.

    A Madison Boatworks film is one that ignores algorithm winning tropes, and is so much better for it. Love your work. I make sure I create a time to watch them properly when these videos drop.

    Good day to you both, l and the islands i have been to them but from the islands shore line. Yeah the P&O Cruise lines i love you couple and the story around the island's. Those flying foxes are a local sound up and down our eastern coast of Australia. I to thought of the history of the islands. Its just a matter of time before I return into my retirement. Might see or come across you both if you hit the Gold Coast or Brisbane Queensland. My name is Dave .Am a empty nester and now divorced. But you know there's a hole oceans out there .well love your journey .😊😊😊😊❤❤

    So beautiful! So lovely sliding through the water so gracefully.
    Your wife is very attractive also but the boat is absolutely stunning.
    A sailing dinghy for exploring instead of a noisy inflatable zooming around disturbing the tranquility is my way of cruising.
    The subtle sounds a wooden boat makes is so much nicer than the squeaking of a fiberglass boat.
    Thank you very much for putting the time into making and sharing your trip.

    Really beautiful place! I'm also really happy that you observed the formalities of going to that Island. It's good to respect the local authority, even if that authority is recorded in tradition as opposed to written in a legal code book.

    You are fantastic in so many ways. I love your wooden boat and how it seems like another character in your journey. You include video of the lovely Julia at anchor at each location, which shows admiration and respect to her. It’s like there are three of you on this voyage! You are wonderful photographers/video journalists too; perhaps the best of RUclips sailors. It’s like watching a ‘National Geographic’ documentary film! Superb; simply superb! I’ve found myself worrying about you when you haven’t posted in a while. I would like to see more about Julia’s history, how you got her, and more about your dingy too; what design, what is she made of, did you build her, etc.? I heard a reference to seeing more of Fiji on a second circumnavigation in this segment! Great! Thank you for sharing!

    So serene in the south pacific. There's a tranquility that washes over you upon seeing the islands. It doesn't matter how many times you visit; it's always present. Beautiful videos and Julia is just as stunning. Are you stopping in the Solomon's? Looks like a great place to explore reefs and WW2 wreckage but believe you need diving equipment? Cheers..
