I have to admit I am a little disappointed you guys did all these great improvements without sharing. I know a lot of your followers subscribe for the travelogue aspect, but I have always watched because I love the way you guys have tackled and improved Uma along the way. I just bought a 2002 Beneteau 331 because you two convinced me to stop dreaming and do. So perhaps instead of a girls night thing with Kika, a Friday "Dan's boatworks" segment? I'd up my patreon for that programming. I have so much to do, and watching you two blaze a trail gives many of us the confidence to do our own work. |Thank you for what you do, please don't forget about us boat fixers as you finish fixing yours. :-)
I must agree. More "Dan+Kika+powertools please. LOL. I bet plenty of folks FF through the sailing and repair bits for the sightseeing parts. I am just the opposite. The sail across the Atlantic was such a blast. And they both obviously know structures and materials. I love the places they visit, but the journey and trials I find vastly more interesting. Glad they do these, all of them. Happy sailing PW! And post some pics of your work as well!!!
These videos are a great mix of; how to be a good sailor, how to be a great couple, and how to be a great human. Love to you both from Asheville, North Carolina
Your drone footage adds SO much to giving a wider, larger, deeper perspective to your videos. And in spite of the anxiety levels amidst much other complexity..... Thank you for another great video. Your drone up-skilling is offering tremendous returns.
Can I just say I love how much Dan loves Kika's hair! As a curly-haired woman myself it's a struggle I have no idea how you manage it on a boat Kika but you do and I respect that!
Watching you two sail is like watching a well oiled machine. Add to that a gorgeous mane and infectious laughter and you get one helluva video! Great job.
I've lived most of my life on Terschelling ) my picture is from there), the island next to Vlieland. Nice to see you sail some extremely familiar waters. Good call to anchor there, the entrance to the marina can be very hard with those currents. When you sail north following the North Sea coast these days you'll have beautiful weather, but don't forget it's a huge shipgraveyard there with hundreds of wrecks, those are some extremely dangerous waters due to potentially very high winds pushing big waves across long distances on to invisible shallows, getting even the largest container ships in trouble. Keep an eye on your depth sounder when you are outside shipping lanes as the sandbars are constantly moving and maps are outdated quickly. But also: some historical naval battle were fought there and the maritime history of the place is amazing with explorers starting their circumnavigations from the exact spot you're anchoring now, like Tasman, Hudson and Barentsz. Though there weren't any locks then and the salt water started at leaving Amsterdam. Fleets anchored at Vlieland and Terschelling those days, waiting for favorable winds. So you are part of history now!
You guys have changed so much it's amazing how much more you love each other. Really exciting professional y'all are . This visit has made you better sailors by watching other people. So much you had to learn and respond quickly. I like the closing you are his little princess to take care of
Love the hair! Holland is beautiful. But you know what?, grocery stores look exactly the same all over the world. You boat is looking better and better. But you know there was a lot to be said about your Port-a-boat days. :) In the old days two new winches would have been a few episodes and you budget for a month!
My favorite parts: "its only a race if we're winning" - LOL!.. and the hair. Love the hair! Kika's hair is so amazing, I love it. But also you two look so comfortable managing the boat and so competent in all you need to do. I'm so impressed with all you've learned and how good you are at it. You're an impressive couple of people. You are literally living my dream. I'm envious, but so happy for you two!
I watch from Jamaica. I love the chemistry between you two. It's as if "ye twain have become one flesh". You guys should stop by whenever you are back in the Caribbean. Happy Sailing
This is the only sailing channel that stirs my soul. I'm always so proud of you, always a little jealous of kika's gorgeous hair and I'm always left wanting more
Yeah. I specially hate those begging for patrons on the begining of each video, and then showing off their half a million /or higher/ euro ride, or pfishing with long exposures of scantilly clad female crewmates, (not offended in any way, but bikini clad girls on a boat/beach/trek are a dime a dozen in every warm, summery location video, good and instructional sailing and voyaging videos, OTOH, are few and far between) ... Uma is an honest boat, she is way way better now, with loads/years of hard work of both Dan and Kika. Also some great features now, instant power on the screw, nicely rearranged salon, head ... So yeah, I'm enjoying this one and very few others.
Dutch french fries with Joppie saus xD, what a nice way to leave us! It seems I was right on time to spot your yacht two weeks ago ^^. Have a safe journey, Iceland is beautiful!
Happy you both liked my country the Netherlands with the patat frites and the sauses, special I prefer the pinda saus! Anyway, after 3 month there and made your ship with all the repairs you did will give you the advance to have an even better sail boat for years to come. Enjoyed this clip where as you both enjoyed the bikes going through the city on the bike lanes. Looking forwards to see more of you two in the near future. Nice to see you are sailing through the locks in the Afsluitdijk and into the Waddenzee and you are in the North Sea after you passing those Islands. Good sailing and stay safe!
I started following your steps after I saw your interview with Ruby Rose. I love your shows Dan & Kika! Thank you so much for sharing your adventures. Your chemistry together and your video productions only compliment one another and they always seem to get better and better! Safe Travels to you both and I always look forward to your next Step!
So beautiful to watch. So much ❤️. New to your channel. My goodness so beautiful to watch. I know that feeling with my wife for 24 yrs. She just had a heart attack age 60 I'm 50. She survived because I knew it and called for help. Saved her life. I'm from a blended family as well as my wife. We have absolutely Gorgeous Nieces and Nephews. Brother in-laws are very Handsome also. So watching you makes me feel so wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Sincerely, Michelle Ellsworth Pup Harley and Kitty Liam from Arlington Massachusetts.
Great job Kika through the locks that's the best practice ever you're so pretty don't ever cut your hair I think we can make a RUclips channel just on your hair and of course Dan you're the best
You guys are awesome! I happened onto one of your videos a few months ago, and after I watched four or five different Steps, I went back to the beginning and started over with Step 1. I have now watched all of them. What a great adventure! I thought I was a DIY'er until watching some of the projects you guys have tackled. Just amazing what you have done with UMA! Can't wait for the next video. High Five!!! :-)
I'm saving up to do just this. I hope to be ready to buy a boat in 5 years, unfortunately I don't make enough money to get a decent nest egg any quicker than that. I could but a boat now but I want to have enough money saved to know I can sail for several years without having to worry about money, I'm hoping by the time I run out I'll have found a few ways to make money while sailing doing boat work or something.
jOdyssey yea. Go for it bro. I’m planning to do the same. Or at least try it because I might not like but I have to give it a try. I drive semi trucks now. Planning to get my own truck so I can make more money. I should be able to save quick cause ima live in my truck and be making over 6 figures. Good luck bro
@@srqlisa7881 As someone that have seen all of their episodes please tell me which episode we can see them installing the new bow roller and the other things they talk about......as I can not find it.
@@srqlisa7881 While it is a good and interesting episode they only install the bowsprit not the bow roller and the other stuff (they do mention the roller is being made) so no not the content that was being asked for,.
On RUclips we are already following you guys for a long time. And when we were in Harlingen last week, I told my wife let's go to Makkum and see if we can spot you guys only to say hello. We were in the right places, but didn't see you. Too bad, so sad. Hope you had a nice stay, and for the rest of your journey: travel save. 👍🧭⚓⛵
I'm new to your channel, but I really like it! You guys do a great job and it's really fun watching. I follow Delos, Sailing Doodles, Expedition Drenched and a few others, but yours is really great! So glad I came across it! thanks.
I have just spent every spare minute of the last month Binge Watching forward from Step 1 - I can't remember the last time I enjoyed content so much!! You are both amazing and interesting people, and so good at what you are doing - you have me totally hooked!! I somehow feel sad that now I have to wait for more, like getting to the end of a great book!!
In these times of restrictions and spontaneous laws its a breath fresh air to see you guys living in freedom and love. Amazed to see that you have to purchase mangoes when you picked it free in the Caribbean.
Susan & Tony here from Michigan We are planning on retiring in about 2 years and want to live on a boat for a few years, not sure If it will be a trawler or sail boat. My husband is a captain and we have been boating for the last 30 years. I booked a sailing class in Traverse City Michigan this past weekend for my husband’s birthday and wow did we learn a lot! Watching you two beautiful people sail and handle it is just amazing! So much to sailing and lots of fun! Respect! I’ve watched everyone of your videos and I must say you are my favorite out there sailing! Safe travels and god bless! Hope to meet up some time in the future!
Guys, THANK YOU !!! Thank you for providing us with a very nice story about your life o/b and thank you for ALL the great promotions about the Netherlands and its’ sailing grounds! Fair winds and following seas for your future adventures! All the best, Harry Dekkers
The Netherlands is such a beautiful place. It is so clean there as is most of Europe. I really enjoyed my time when I lived in Germany in the late 80's early 90's. I got to travel and see so much of it. Would love to go back again and visit those places again. Nice to see Uma sailing free again.
I believe this is the first Uma video I saw. I liked it enough to rip through the binge watch playlist to this point in about a month. Y’all make good content. The right balance of story telling, personality, fun, scenery, tourism, art, science. Kudos on all you’ve done so far. I guess I’m getting close to the end of the playlist at this point
7:50 hello gorgeous! We should see that beautiful hair more often! Awesome video guys. I would love to see detailed vids of all the work you guys did on the boat, especially on the bow.
Well thanks, Dan, for flying the drone so we could see our boat as you left Makkum (you passed her...)!!! Such a nice little town. And yes, the sail to Vlieland is not completely straightforward...we are lucky to have a swingkeel that gives a bit more leeway with the sandbanks.
I have been keeping up with the Wynns and their sailing experience and I (for some reason) just came across your videos...I am hooked. I enjoy the interaction you have with each other, as well as your viewers. I look forward to taking a peek inside your next video and being a part of it. Watching from Delaware, USA.
It was great hanging out with you guys in Amsterdam and taking you flying. Luc and I were really impressed by Dan's flying skills. Hopefully you guys can come visit us at our place in France when you guys make it to the Med.
sad to see you leave Holland - my favorite country ; but I love Iceland too - just brace yourself for how expensive it is ; unreal but they have really great local lobster!
God Bless You... You are really learning alot + studied navigation + wind currents + have healthy food supply. You are so incredible to follow. We are praying for your fine sailing + teamwork salt water journey... get some rest; remember waterproof wear + hat, scarf + jacket, etc. God Bless You Dearly what a fine team + couple.
Nice one with the top down furling Spinnaker. A great addition. It’s so safe not having to go up on deck to recover it (as that usually happens when the wind changes direction or things are going “tits-up” and you don’t want to be up on deck then). I installed one on my boat 2 years ago and have never got so much use out of the kite because it’s so easy to deploy and kill off.
We are very happy you both enjoyed your visit to the Netherlands, our country of origin. We wondered how you would sail, and knew quickly that you passed the "Afsluitdijk" to enter the "Waddenzee", going between two of the "Waddenijlanden" into the "Noordzee" (North-Sea). Past the North-Sea you'll properly be in the Atlantic Ocean again. We'll keep following your travels to Norway or even Iceland. Have a safe voyage under the protection from above. Much love from IJpe and Corrie, from Ireland.
I think it's so Awesome that you guys are here in the Netherlands! 😍 But are you sure you'll be leaving because "Groningen" is way better then Amsterdam! 😂🤞🏼 Btw great quote "it's only a race if we're winning"
Nonono, im sorry, but the best place is Utrecht. ( :D :D Who gives a flying f... which city? :D This is a lovely country, after five years i still like to live here, even tho i never had a dream of living here, it was always Australia, and the UK for a while, but since ive arrived, never felt the urge to leave it. Just a general urge to sail around the world, what i still have to satisfy.)
completely addicted to your channel! love it! been bingewatching whilst kicking back with a migraine.and learning such a lot from you both in preparation for our own journey.you guys got it right. a finely tuned balance of education and daily life and you are both adorable. looking forward to more! happy sailing!! xx

Love Dan doing Kika's hair. Very sweet at the end of a stressful sail.
Kika’s hair is like a whole other character on the boat on windy days, or open sailing. So lovely!
So agree! You should have it open more often....

Watching you two sail is like watching a well oiled machine. Add to that a gorgeous mane and infectious laughter and you get one helluva video! Great job.
Does the "Gorgeous mane" refer to the sail or to kika?

Jelte Arntzen Vlieland was my father’s home port. His starting point for sailing the world. Your comment is pretty much wat I was thinking of. :-)
What a lovely happy episode....you are both glowing!
Beautiful display of people with their boats, such a different life to the Mediterranean.👍🏼🤩🥰👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The harbour exit drone footage was really cool thought

All the best,

My first comment: Vlieland my favorite island! I’m dutch and i loved seeing you guys discover my country.
The Netherlands is such a beautiful place. It is so clean there as is most of Europe. I really enjoyed my time when I lived in Germany in the late 80's early 90's. I got to travel and see so much of it. Would love to go back again and visit those places again. Nice to see Uma sailing free again.
Classic line : It's only a race if we're winning.......

I guess I’m getting close to the end of the playlist at this point
Sheep: Has a mouth full of grass
Kika: Come here, I've got a leaf!
Absolutely fantastic xD
I've really enjoyed the Dutch series. It's been great glimpse of home for this displaced Dutchman living in Canada. Thank you!

Awesome video guys. I would love to see detailed vids of all the work you guys did on the boat, especially on the bow.

Well thanks, Dan, for flying the drone so we could see our boat as you left Makkum (you passed her...)!!! Such a nice little town. And yes, the sail to Vlieland is not completely straightforward...we are lucky to have a swingkeel that gives a bit more leeway with the sandbanks.

It was great hanging out with you guys in Amsterdam and taking you flying. Luc and I were really impressed by Dan's flying skills. Hopefully you guys can come visit us at our place in France when you guys make it to the Med.
There are exspensive lawnmowers then there are sheep ones.
Thanks for the video. Great to see my home country again after 60 years in Australia. I love the way you two work together. Have a nice trip.
sad to see you leave Holland - my favorite country ; but I love Iceland too - just brace yourself for how expensive it is ; unreal
but they have really great local lobster!
God Bless You... You are really learning alot + studied navigation + wind currents + have healthy food supply. You are so incredible to follow. We are praying for your fine sailing + teamwork salt water journey... get some rest; remember waterproof wear + hat, scarf + jacket, etc. God Bless You Dearly what a fine team + couple.
We love you kika
Nice one with the top down furling Spinnaker. A great addition. It’s so safe not having to go up on deck to recover it (as that usually happens when the wind changes direction or things are going “tits-up” and you don’t want to be up on deck then).
I installed one on my boat 2 years ago and have never got so much use out of the kite because it’s so easy to deploy and kill off.
I haven't watched yet and waiting for the add to end but I wanted to leave a comment saying I love you guys and I encourage you.
Well, it's about time we get to see you-two on
You-Tube again. Welcome back.
We didn’t go anywhere. We’ve been posting one video every Thursday for the last 5 years.
@@SailingUma I meant back on salt.
if her hair is getting caught in your beard, i think you should shave your beard. :)
Great episode, loved the Dutch barges, you two are so in tune with each other it’s a pleasure to watch!
Singing " We are the kids of the sun. we are the gangsters of paradise!" love that song!
Good to see you all are well and doing ok....have fun!
Kika! Such language. Your a true salty sailor now. 🍺

We are very happy you both enjoyed your visit to the Netherlands, our country of origin. We wondered how you would sail, and knew quickly that you passed the "Afsluitdijk" to enter the "Waddenzee", going between two of the "Waddenijlanden" into the "Noordzee" (North-Sea). Past the North-Sea you'll properly be in the Atlantic Ocean again. We'll keep following your travels to Norway or even Iceland. Have a safe voyage under the protection from above. Much love from IJpe and Corrie, from Ireland.
By the way, I just found out UMA has an AIS tracker, therefore it shows up on marinetraffic.com
Your hair is amazing! You guys always look so happy, I cant stop smiling when I watch your videos!
Love your hair honey. Love your sailing. God Bless.
Amazing drone work!
it's pleasant to see you both,i really loves your chemistry, when you coming to India? i am waiting?
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode.Well done!
I think it's so Awesome that you guys are here in the Netherlands! 😍
But are you sure you'll be leaving because "Groningen" is way better then Amsterdam! 😂🤞🏼
Btw great quote "it's only a race if we're winning"
Nonono, im sorry, but the best place is Utrecht. ( :D :D Who gives a flying f... which city? :D This is a lovely country, after five years i still like to live here, even tho i never had a dream of living here, it was always Australia, and the UK for a while, but since ive arrived, never felt the urge to leave it. Just a general urge to sail around the world, what i still have to satisfy.)
completely addicted to your channel! love it! been bingewatching whilst kicking back with a migraine.and learning such a lot from you both in preparation for our own journey.you guys got it right. a finely tuned balance of education and daily life and you are both adorable. looking forward to more! happy sailing!! xx
