După niște lucrări majore de întreținere, aducem iahtul nostru Gancia Girl înapoi în apă. Ne pregătim pentru câteva călătorii mai lungi și pentru primele noastre călătorii peste noapte.

Excellent way to keep your brain from getting slowed. This is the best preventive medicine. Good going for both of you.
Your videos are improving so quickly. Good job guys.
Omg love it
nice one
I've been sailing for 7 years, starting in my mid-50s, (I sail dinghies though). Always glad to run into other old dogs who are learning some new tricks! Good luck guys!
Lovely, Fowey is such a beautiful place as are many on that coastline. Happy days. Andy UK
Just knots..
Some smashing videos! My story is similar, I'm not quite 60 and I started sailing as a school boy but not done much for decades. But now I have a boat, a Drascombe Longboat Cruiser, berthed on the Blackwater here in Essex. I will start sailing her soon and begin acquiring experience and new skills plus have some fun along the way! I will follow your progress with interest!
Can you tell us how much that mast step work ended up costing? I'm also gearing up towards buying my first boat (I'm 57) but still lack a lot of "cost data points"
very nice you two…very happy for you….
Fantastic, congratualtions and a lovely place to voyage to
Keep at it! Love the perspective of your channel. I've met loads of people your ages with interest in sailing and I'll be sure to share this channel with them all. Best of luck our there and stay safe!
That boat moves sooo beautifully……………….good stuff!
connecting your autohelm to a wind instrument is great for sailing. I did mine a few weeks back, yours is the + model so should be simple to do. I started at 50 3 years ago.
Thank-you for sharing.
This is so inspiring and just what I needed. The hubby and I are both 50 and this is our dream – but we know we are a few years away still. I was slightly fearful that someone close to 60 years might truly struggle to not only learn to sail, but to buy a boat and move forward with their dreams. You guys are wonderful!! Keep up the amazing journey and documenting! <3
Wonderful video, beautiful trip. If I may point out at 5:19 your winch handle is left on the winch. Good idea to remove it once the sail is trimmed. Safer that way,
More please.
I'm really enjoying your channel. I started sailing 13 years ago at age 45 so I can somewhat relate to how you feel in love with it.
I wish you fair winds and following seas!

Excellent! Just for info, a knot is a nautical mile per hour, so you don’t need to say ‘per hour’ after it.
Really like your content! Great channel to learn with you what life on board is like.
Am 56 and haven't sailed for 40 years and bought an old nicholson 32 from 1965 in good nick
My instructor told me "Two boats on the water is a race!!"
It's never too late to dream a new dream or learn a new skill, I wish you many a great trip
I also have an old 30ft Tucker Landamore TL90, which is at present on the hard getting some tlc, but hopefully will be in the water soon. I am sixty myself this year and just love sailing, during the season I race on a friends Bavaria 38, great fun. Also when you said you weren’t competitive I did chuckle, all sailors are. When you get two sailors in the same part of the sea it’s always a race. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Thanks everybody for your kind words and support. We'll keep the videos coming.
Grand beginning. 2's up.
Hi guys, I am also sixty, god knows where the time has gone. Just about to get a sailing yacht myself, so hopefully we may bump into eachother one day,,,,,, Not Literally lol
Another great episode, thank you. Seeing your ST2000 brought back happy memories, great bit of kit; good move getting a solar panel, I had 3 batteries and it was a boon with the combined use of plotter, autopilot and VHF on longer trips without needing to run the engine.
Looking forward to more content; well produced, thanks again!
Nice length of episode, leaves me wanting more! Thanks for this, I’m trying to convince myself to do more sailing
You are absolutely correct… One has to think in order to sail, especially if one wants to go to specific place and arrive at a specific time. That’s one of the reasons sailing is God’s gift to type a personalities like me. And I’m so thankful for it! BTW, I’m 68… Been sailing since university, and larger boats since I was in my 30s. You guys are an inspiration to start in your 60s!
Well done..more,more more.
This is great! I’ve a Sadler32 at Eastbourne which I’m desperate to get out on – but seem to have loads of jobs to do first…. Your videos are low-key but somehow rewarding to watch; keep ‘em coming!
Did you two take sailing lessons or take a course ? You both look so relaxed as I am still nervous but slowly learning on my own
Search about freeze drying machine, freeze dried vegetables,fruits, powderd egg, canning & mini vacuum packing machine, pantry storage, put a vedio about your opinion
She's a flyer… Any two yachts sailing in a relatively similar direction, it's a RACE…
Congratulations! I’m thinking your adventure is also a life teaching lesson to be in the moment. What just happened and happens next are less important than where you are now. Some search for that their entire lives without learning what you’ve discovered….
Just been enjoying your first three episodes and I dare say others have already noticed and you are fed up being told that you will lose your sprayhood if any more of those fixings on the port side let go… Maybe there is water getting in too… maybe you fixed it over the winter ready for 2023… I am about to find out I expect. Anyway, happy sailing and fair winds and keep up the episodes.
