Even though I am only an Armchair sailor, this is why I watch sailing channels. The cultural exchange is amazing. All of my love and respect. Fair winds and following seas.

It's so cool to see some young people living life to the fullest, doing amazing things.

Your resourcefulness is an inspiration. Thanks for taking us with you on your adventures.

I love all your adventures Captain but I really enjoy the ones where you interact with the locals. I loved watching how those fellows used both old and new technology to mill lumber from the tree they cut down. Take care of that cold and above all, keep on sailing! ⛵🌴😎

Yay Holly! First, love your cultural exchange. Second, hats off (again) on your mechanical courage and skill. Third, way to make that lemonade kitesailing! You remain my inspiration!

Another great video Holly. What a great time it must be hanging with the locals and learning how they get by with much less than the modern conveniences we landlubbers take for granted. Someday I hope to do the same. Every time you smile, it makes me smile. Its obvious how much you enjoy this lifestyle and I shall remain envious...I can't wait for the next episode. Until then, happy sailing!

These islanders are such mariners that it’s not surprising they appreciate Ms. Martin’s voyage.

Uh! Hello! You're never out of Jerry-rig land❤😂 half the reason I watch You!!!

the guided tour was enlightening, the people were so welcoming and giving. It's great you showed the love people in our world have! thanks again wind hippie!

Reminder to subscribe! Holly has so many likes on this video - she deserves the subs! Well done.

Another great episode. Thank you for the hard work involved ❤

You're absolutely hilarious 🤣 even when you're serious you're absolutely hilarious 😂 having said that, you're a proper sea dog, Sir Francis Drake would be proud of you 👏

Absolutely love coconut water ,, its so refreshing ,,

Man that's so 😎 love the updates. I like and share with friends .. Happy sailing ⚓ Fair winds my Maine friend Cheers from 🇨🇦

One never forgets the rich aroma of coconuts where copra is made. I miss that smell.

Wow that must be awesome to experience something most people in the world will never get to do or see. Another fantastic video Holly

Amazing how they can saw the planks so straight.

Thank you Holly. Skilled craftsmen and their chainsaws! Wishing you the very best. Sam

Holly u have a Wonderful voice ! I love when u sing a bit , nice touch ❤

Very cool, the locals seem incredibly nice!

Thank you for sharing your journeys

And they said...Jake's leg wasn't the thing to do...I am so happy you have a young man onboard. Enjoy the good times. (you are so happy.. fun to see you this way)

great video. those native guys were amazing. perfect planks with chainsaws. what masters!

Vanuatu is such a beautiful place, definitely on my bucket list of destinations to sail to

Good Video, scenery, local interaction and Holly laughing and smiling. Cheers.

Beautiful video. I'm glad you can use your key again haha!

What a great story on your trip.

Another great video! Good job on fixing your engine stop!⛵️⛵️⛵️

Wonderful!

Happy for you Holly....looks like you are having time of your life wtg

Thank you for a fantastic episode. ❤

Wow! What a great video!

Well done guys another great episode with amazing footage cheers !!

Love you, feel better 💕

Thanks for another great vid, Holly - Hope your cold gets better soon 😊

Nice one guys :)

Nice work 🙏

This woman has more competence than about 98% of sailors, male or female, whom I have ever met or seen. That in 50 years as a licensed professional small craft Mariner (less than 200 tons, upon Oceans.). Holly has probably forgotten more knowledge than 50% of them have ever had! Great job woman!

Another great video. Glad to see you have a friend to have fun with. People make the world go round ✌️

Hi I really enjoy watching you sailing and dealing with everything. Keep smiling

Always the best!

Great video. Thanks

Thank you Holly for another excellent Video. Love to see you interacting with the locals and I get a small glimpse into the local culture ! I have never cracked open a coconut that way, but want to some day.

I haven't watched your videos in awhile. You ARE amazing!

What an amazing life

Lovely to watch this. It seems so far removed from all the crap going on in the world.

Another great episode Holly.

I thought this was your best episode yet. You are living the dream! 👍

Thanks for sharing 👍 Hope you feel better!let's go geco!

I hope you feel better soon. Amazing video

Hey Holy, excellent video, your voice when you are narrating you camera work is so calming , love your work, ❤

Cool!

I was worried the title was a euphemism. Fantastic video, love the island tour and the successful boat work.

You amaze me.

Thanks!

Your videos are always so amazing, it shows that you don't need an expensive drone and the latest cameras to make emersive beautiful videos, just you and an excellent editor.😊❤

I absolutly love this girl! "Death by coconut"... it's a real "thing", down here in the tropics.

love the music and it `s a cool edit

Really cool video!!! I like how you make friends with everyone you meet. Interesting..and you made cookies!! You have such good vibes! Hope your feeling better.

Spot on with the crimp conn, as an electrician I have done that a few times when proper conn unavailable.

Thanks

Great video! Lots of interesting stuff... chock full! 20:30 A real Al Bundy! I love it!!!😆😁😄

Inspiring. You are so rich. Stay with it. ❤

Feel better XO

That was very brave letting them on the boat then going with them. Looks like it worked out though... Thank you for the video...

I’ve always liked the Grinde - your vessel. I remember seeing one and its smaller sister (brother?) at the Earl’s Court Boatshow in London in January 1976. I may still have the brochure somewhere.

Walking through that island with no shoes on now that’s brave

Very safety conscious, wearing a hi viz!! 😀😀😁😁🤔🤔

Nice to watch something I don't do: Kiting... In my younger days I've done quite a lot of chainsaw work mostly for clearing fallen trees and firewood... I could never see myself quarter sawing a tree for lumber that looks great... those guys were amazing... You teased with the diving... didn't see any lobster harvesting... Hmmm... anyway was another great vid and good to see you have crew...! Fair Winds...

Wife and enjoy your show sort of relate some from our Catalina 27 . Keep up the videos

Hi Hollie!x.

Ripping it Up on the board!

Should have taken another piece of bamboo and made some nice wooden spoons for cooking!

Love ur wrk Holly. Be carefull showing ur electrical work... those sparkies tend to get their knickers in a knot 😂

GO, HOLLS! (Re turning the key and the engine stops!)

Funnily enough my stop solenoid wasn't engaging but it was just corrosion on the spade terminal preventing contact so easy fix. Great content really enjoy your videos

Native tree logging just has been banned in my state of Victoria,fingers crossed it might go Australia wide soon.

Hey holly that cable looks like solid core domestic cable you would find in a house this may get metal fatigue and fail due to vibration from the engine it would be better to use stranded core cable if you have it this would be alot less likely to fracture take it easy see you on the next one

those lumbermen would love one of the simple chainsaw mills available in the states!

Wow that would have been a huge very old tree, what a waste cutting it down just for some timber

Unsolicited tip 157, I have found lanolin lightly smeared or better lanolin spray stops the green wire death and helps with any galvanic action between different metals. More user friendly and effective than the old WD.

Hi Holly I urge you to get some CRC Battery Terminal spray. You should spray it on your electrical connections snd battery posts to eliminate corrosion. Just a suggestion as a preventative measure against corrosion (Green Death) in your cables

❤❤

Hello Round Pond, Maine from Phippsburg, Maine!!

👏👏👏

Pick up a tube of dielectric grease. It stops corrosion. Put it in your butt connectors, spade connectors, anything you crimp that's electrical.

Woop

electrasol, for wires to stop and save from corosion. Ask them back home over apple pie with cheddar cheese,

Next time you have to strip apart a wire sheath, go to your sowing kit and get your seam ripper. It will save your fingers and time

You walked past me today in Townsville. I didnt know whether I should bother you and say Hi. Might have weirded you out! Anyways I hope you enjoy your stay!

Use dielectric grease on contacts.

The ideal trading item is non-GMO seeds for food like watermelon, tomatoes and so on.

Holly when i grow up i want to be like you.By the way i am 65 years old.😁😂

Do you have that free feeling standing on your flying bridge.

Those men need the Alaskan sawmill attachment uses their saw

Not WD40, use vaseline - petroleum jelly, acid free-

🇹🇷🇹🇷👍👍

Get well soon . You mentioned before you used to work down in Antarctica . What did you do , boat pilot ? Did you enjoy it down south ?

Yet another cool video but also disturbing. To see large trees chopped down just to construct a lodge is shocking to see . One would have thought that there would be some education programs regarding this on the Islands and also controlling regulations. Trees on Islands play a tremendous role in the survival of the habitat as island soils are mostly poor. But in the extensive root migration, some very interesting exchange of sugars and moisture find place, supporting not only the trees but also the other plant species. Well, paradise found, paradise lost they say. The next generation may wonder why their Island is completely empty. Once the trees go,the rest follow extremely fast.

What happened to the bamboo for the boat?
