This was a recommendation on my youtube page.

An impossibly attractive couple living the dream. I'm 18 episodes in, & hooked. A wonderful antidote to our British winter. But makes wish I was back in my twenties...

Enjoy

Sigh, she told me she was nipping out for a pint of milk.

I did notice her other half was, you know, of slim build.

I can't compete with those long golden locks either.

Thanks for sharing this, just finished watching all the videos they have up so far.  Really cool channel.

My bosses parents did the same thing a few years back, sold the lot up bought a boat and float wherever they fancy. They seem to have a good life from what she tells me....

Great share, 15 episodes straight through and about to watch the rest.

Thanks.

Love things like this, will give it a watch when I have spare time and good wifi!

There's another series on YouTube filmed by 2 guys in their mid twenties who saved up, quit their jobs and backpacked round Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South/ Central America and then finished with a road trip across the states. Pretty entertaining to watch and very professionally put together. Definitely not as luxurious as sailing across the world but still looks great, and inspired me to do the same thing.

 I'm crap at doing these link things so just type in HK2NY into YouTube (it stands for Hong Kong to New York).

Loving this so far, abs love this kind of thing too.

Looking forward to the HK2NY thing too once I'm caught up, Tyty.

Thanks for the heads up on this one.

Just started, & seems decent. I think these series are great if you like the people involved & the production is good, but not too slick.

In a similar style to Sailing La Vagabonde is Untie The Lines.

A young German woman's adventure. I'm 18 episodes in, & she's just starting to get to grips with the problems of owning a boat. Hugely resourceful, practical & likeable.

Finished the lot yesterday.  Loved it mostly, but didn't like the asking for money but.  Weird really, as I'd took their films for free.  Sending money for someone to do THAT just seemed a bit much.  Good luck to them though, would love to do it. 

As an aside to sailor types, why no life jackets, especially when it is blowing a bit?  Seems you could trip or get knocked overboard with a not insignificant chance. Just seems wearing just the latest swimsuit is a needless risk, even if it makes better viewing.  Or is it a bit like the tv Chefs who never seem to wash their hands?

I said professionally put together, should have mentioned I believe it's very well put together for a guy filming using just one camcorder for the whole trip, compared to an actual series it's probably pretty shite!

Hope you enjoy it, found myself getting really into it quickly as someone around their age.

15 seconds in to the sailing couple's video and I instantly detest my life even more than usual ha. Seriously though fair play to them, looks like they are having a ball, and if people are stupid enough to fund it for them then even better from their point of view.

Afraid I gave up half way through Ep 2. Just found the section in Laos when it's all about getting drunk & partying too tiresome. I see too much of that in my local town centre. Probably appeals to twentysomethings, not my idea of travelling these days.

Yeah worried me about the lack of life jackets also. I think some of the comments were the same. Kids eh! no telling em.

Wondered how much they have been getting in donations. Obv have a massive following, last episode up only a day & already 30000+ views, You Tube income must add up over a period of time, but no idea how much you can earn on there.

Watched the first 5 episodes of this yesterday - enjoying it so far. Riley and Elayna are really quite entertaining and seem to be up beat throughout, if when they seem to hit a relatively big problem.

As mentioned above, I particularly like the fact they are asking for money to fund it. But I guess if they can get away with it and people are happy to do so then, crack on.

Does look very appealing, but very hard work!

Does anybody still follow this.  I catch up every so often.  Was pretty shocked to see this though.

fair play to them.  Not sure where they are going to take it given they are half way round the world already.

For those who have seen them all, this is quite good too, though he hasn't run so good, and it isn't quite so glamorous.  Absoloutely hate the way he says "kombi life", and his tightwaddery can be annoying too.

I tend to catch up on an ep or two when I have a spare half hour or so, did become really annoying how they were using so many sales tactics to fund their ridiculous life style - but fair play. Hadn't seen that clip of their new boat, pretty sick.

I've been watching Sailing La Vagabond for a while. Great series. I also watch a guy called Spud Fit. He's a 30 something guy who's lost 50kgs in 9 months eating only potatoes. Really entertaining.

I still follow these two, though Delos is better.

Anyway they now have a million followers, a baby and Greta Thunberg on board.

I wonder if they are prepared fpr all the knuckleheads she'll attract?

They're probably nicking a good few quid with > 1m subs.

And a hefty Patreon, too!

I suspected the were doing ok, but I haven't looked at their patreon page for ages.  Probably getting serious wedge these days, their boat is in the million quid range but is leased on a deal.  I dare say that Outremer have done pretty well from a deal that was signed when they had a much lower number of subscribers.

I have been doing a bit of reading around, and the North Atlantic in November is no walk in the park and am guessing they have to head North in search of wind where it is colder.  Poor little Lenny is going to have a bumpy ride. I remember when my two were young and all the stuff you have to do to stop them killing themselves.  I think deep down  wish I'd lived my life their way.  I can see why they have brought in a very experienced sailor to help though.

The Daily Mail website is a treat for this story.  "Bet their boat isn't made of old soiled nappies, blah blah blah".  It is pretty clear that the way those two live that they have a pretty low environmental impact compared with most of us (though I don't know where you allocate all the energy used from people watching their videos on youtube). 

4,000 patreon members, so if you assume all subscribers are on the bottom tier, and they get 50% of generated income. That gives them $6k a month from that, without the lumpy YouTube money coming in on top.

Lol @ soiled nappies.

They have just started loading up the Greta Thunberg videos.  I don't know if it is just going to be one a week, but the intro to the trip is up.

For spoilers of the trip, Nikki Henderson (a British expert sailor) was on board and gave daily facebook updates which I enjoyed, as I think she writes really well. They were short due to circumstances, but got across enough info about the trip and the emotions of it.  Just scroll down to November 13 and scroll up from there.

I am really looking forward to this, as I am sure we'll see much more of the real Greta and what is obviously going to be a difficult trip (spoiler: she doesn't die).  I saw a video of a live press conference when they landed and for her age, I thought she dealt with the questions really well.  I can't imagine I'd be anything other than all over the place after a winter crossing of the Atlantic.

As an aside, the video hasn't been up long and is already attracting a lot of dislikes (they normally get a hugely positive ratio of likes to dislikes), but she seems to attract more than her fair share of haters.  Can you imagine the Donald's reaction if she gets that Nobel Peace Prize?
