What an amazing couple that built, maintain, modify and sail a truly beautiful and capable vessel. At 56 I wish I'd had the opportunity to do something similar but in '98 my special needs son was born. Needless to say that changed the wife and I's lives forever as he requires 24/7 supervised care that we provide as there's no other option. I mean there are homes of course but I'd never do that to my son as he's more than happy with us and depends on us for everything. Without my wife's loving care he'd not last long just sitting or lying in a room alone and we simply refuse to do that to him. There is a silver lining as mentally he's from 6 to 10 depending on subject and Christmas as well as all the holidays are a very special time for him. Sorry for going off on a tangent there and thank you for showing this couple and their amazing accomplishments on your channel... To them, fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless. God Bless...

@mjrburn. Your story breaks my heart, you are wonderful and very loving parents. I am 78 have had a great life, enjoying my work and hobbies including owning a number of sailing boats, hang gliding for 23 years, now riding a very nice motorbike and loving it. I have two fantastic sons who have done extremely well in life and given me four Grandchildren between them. My eldest son is taking me to London and Europe this May for three weeks flying first class and even though I am financially well off he will not let me pay for anything on the trip To give back I volunteer one or two days a week at Sailability Bayside in Brisbane as a skipper on small sailing boats. We sail with mentally and physically disabled people young and old. Some of our passengers can communicate a little and some cannot communicate at all. I see the love and care given by their parents and care givers. It gives me pleasure to brighten their lives just a little, and it has made me appreciate my and my family’s good health. I have the utmost respect for parents in your position who sacrifice everything for their loved ones and I am grateful that I can help enhance the lives of those not so fortunate. Best wishes and love to you wonderful people. Q

This is Bill from the boat Amargosa, I'm on the same dock as they are. They actually have to walk past my boat every day to get to theirs and always make it a point to say hello. I can tell you from chatting with them over time, that they are every bit the sweet hearts they appear to be in this video.

I'm 10 years younger than you, and also feel the label society puts on you after a certain age. I'm making plans to start my life as a live aboard as well. However, I would never attempt to build a boat like this amazing structure or even have the know how, of where to even begin. I would sink to the bottom of the ocean lol. A video like this gives me the fuel to follow my dreams, regardless of my age. Good luck on your new adventure!

The first hurdle was the completion of their "home-built" ship. The percentage of home-made boats that actually see the sea, is frightfully small. Two thumbs-up for that!

I just turned 69 years old. I owned three yachts in the last 25 years. Now I am boatless in Phoenix, Arizona and being retired without a boat I am going nuts [slowly]. Henk took the words right out of my mouth. I truly believe that Adam and Eve were RETIRED IN Paradise and where going nuts with be bored. Adam said to Eve... give that apple... I want to hunt for my food. The rest is history!!! Nice Video!

Wow!! Uncle Henk and Aunt Lucy that was so very cool to see you featured on this show. I have wonderful memories of staying with you on the Gentle Lady and I pray you guys have a wonderful and safe trip! We miss you and love you heaps!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hello relatives of Henk and Lucy. So happy that their video is being shared amongst all of you. This video pays tribute to your Uncle and Aunty's courage and commitment to fulfilling their dreams. ❣️

I am an old Bathurst bikie, a farmer in NSW, and a health professional with 42 years experience preparing to concentrate on my stock in the near future, hopefully! I fly light aircraft with an instructor every 2 years if I can, I love radio but could not master CW as a kid and am limited to citizen bands, and I spend hours each week watching videos about the cruising lifestyle and peoples trawlers and sailing boats! I am delighted by this video and the technicl aspects of this wonderful... vessel and lifestyle. Cheers to everyone concerned here!

I’ve been a live aboard for 25 years. I have not been able to travel like they have. I’m envious of that. I can’t imagine ever living back on land. I’m in my 70’s now and I guess I’ll live out my live on my 44 foot Searay cruiser.

Just curious, why have'nt you been able to travel in your boat?

Henk and Lucy are a lovely couple with a beautiful story. i am 68 and just bought a used 1200CC motorcycle. i haven't ridden in decades. i took the MSF course, 3 days in the rain, got my license and bought this bike online. it was in new york and i am in chicago. been riding most days and with winter coming i will park it for 3 months or so. we have done our fair share of soul searching since leaving our jobs a very few years ago. for the first year, i was in awe of the fact i was free to use my energy for my own interests. we spend most of our time at home and do very little. we are perfectly happy living like we do. most people seem to think they have to stay on the run all the time but we definitely do not see it that way. virtually no travel or socializing. we went for an overnight over halloween and went on a ghost hunting excursion. we were exhausted by all the hassles that we encountered. we were not surprised by them, we just find them taxing, tedious and unnecessary. we do breathwork, meditation, tai chi and maybe yoga around noon each day. maybe 45 minutes total. we sleep in as late as we can. we don't eat until 3 or 4 pm each day. i would say it is a very simple satisfying life and it suits us fine.

Nice. I have been a liveaboard for more than 6 years now. Based out of a marina in Singapore, not too far from Pangkor in Malaysia. I do everything on my boat myself and looking at this steel boat I am impressed how Henk and Lucy have been able to keep it so well maintained. Do not underestimate the amount of work it takes to keep your boat in a seaworthy condition. This is a home that can sink. It is a choice of course and it does takes a high level of commitiment and courage to be living on a boat. I wish both Henk and Lucy all the very best of luck in their future undertaking. Thank you for showing us your home.

Thank you Hank and Lucy for your insight....I've been sailing for only about 16 years, just shorter coastal sailing while still in the work world, but just retired in the last 4 years, and wondered, at 65, if I was overestimating my abilities and underestimating the difficulty of commencing more extensive cruising, just taking off and not coming back, even considering a much bigger boat at this age. Your age and encouragement and experience has convinced me to just go for it...I always feel my best while living on the boat, always love Life the deepest on the boat, so thank you again for helping me cast off the anchor of my second-thoughts ! ❤

Im 4 years in as a liveabord now. I aspire to be like these folks. Im in 30 mph wind on a mooring ball in Maui, wishing the weather were better, and enjoying the experience 😊. 5 years ago, had you have told me "Youll be in hawaii fixing up your sailboat and preparing to live out your dream.". Id have called them crazy. Yet here I am, 5 years later. And Im a few months into cruising. Preparing for a trip to Cali, for a rest , repair , prepare, and supply stop - then on to Baha. Im loving every minute of it. Thankful Im not sailing , especially out in the ocean right now. But I wouldn't trade this life for anything. I hope 30 years from now that Ill still be doin it in this same ol boat/ 1968 ericson30 . (At some other port somewheres. I doubt if Ill ever come back out here. They are unfriendly to liveaboard boaters here in the aloha state. )

Thank you for taking us for a short ride with you on this part of your life’s journey. You must be so proud of your accomplishments and …oh … the stories you can tell and sing about with your guitar. I hope you have been keeping a journal for your kids and grandchildren. It was 20 minutes of enjoyment I’m so glad I didn’t miss. Grand kids are a joy…it’s hard not to see being around for them …but …With computers now it makes it easier to stay in touch while still living your dream and not falling into a hole. All the best. Wishes for Smooth sailing and nothing but good seas and fair winds.

I chose work and my girlfriend in 1995 rather than a life delivering boats around the world I love what you have done and my brother now lives in Mandurah Ive sailed from the UK to Gran Canaria and dream of doing more sailing (although my wife is ill and hates the water) Hats of to the two of you for living my dream

You have inspired me with the fact that you are still doing this and you are in your 80s. Hearing you say that this is what you need to do to fulfill your lives means more to me than you may know.

It's an overwhelming task. Would you recommend outboard, or inboard engines? Helm, or tiller? There is advice from both camps. I'm looking for a 27 footer, maybe 30 at the most.
