No one deserves a relaxing, smooth passage with amenities more than you. Enjoy!

AEC (algorithm enhancing comment) I hope it helps bring clicks to your channel. Interesting content from a real sailor. Congrats on your passage. Built my 34' cold molded Kauri boat in NZ back in the early 80's spent 9 years sailing 'round the Pacific before selling it in San Diego. Retired now ,so my sailing is done vicariously through channels like yours. Cheers

Beautifully put 😊

That's crazy having to motor 1100 miles! That is truly a beautiful, well appointed boat but I appreciate the realness of your boat and lifestyle. It's one most of us can relate to a lot more.

The only sailing channel I enjoy watching anymore! Thanks Holly for always putting out quality content that is relatable to the commoner haha! You know how to put together an engaging story and keep me watching all the way to the end. Fair winds as you continue your travels, I'm eager to see your future unfold here and wish you all the best in your endeavors!

This boat is like WOW! But you have more adventure with the Gecko. Your self-reliance and confidence is just so inspiring.

100 percent agree, Holly! Fly, sail, drive, hike or bike - they all have advantages and disadvantages but what they all share is that you get to travel!

What an amazing yacht, to bad you didn't get to sail her due to light/no wind. I crewed on an Oyster 56 and that boat needed 15 knots of wind to sail with standard sails. Great episode Holly.

Wow wow wow wow wow! The best sailing sunset ever! 19:54

This one was relaxing for me. Thanks for the great scenes.

Yay...creeping up on 100k subscribers! You go, Captain! Cheers! 😄

The seasonal launch of my ketch "Down Home" is just days away. During the off season for my sailing you provide such interesting dialogue and bring us your adventures in a way that makes us pals and parricipants. Keep sharing and we'll be watching with anticipation for your next episode.

Thank you for your amazing realness and allowing me to live vicariously through your journey. ✌️

your demeanor and general well being seems so recharged by your time being craded in the lap of luxury. Good on you and thank you gents for taking car of this fine young sailor on her journey. i can't wait to share your travels with my 16 years ld daughter who I start teaching to sail this summer. thanks again

It was lovely seeing you able to relax and enjoy some luxury. I truly aspire to be as minimal and solid as you are on the Geck.

Looked like fun. Seeing all the trash brings tears to my eyes. People need to be better. Safe travels sister….

People" need to be better? What does that mean? Third world countries often don't have resources like privileged Americans... The USA that has bullied militarily and financially for decades... Those people coming from their infrastructure do not understand that the REST of the world doesn't HAVE access to luxuries... Like Garbage pick up, or choices in buying food goods, or recycling trucks, or or or... As a Canadian, I even can't afford half the stuff that my American counterparts can buy because their dollar fiat currency is stronger due to world domination. I really really wish that people would see that it's not the people of countries that are behaving badly, they are just loving hand to mouth most of the time. It's the countries that control their countries... Namely big Pharma, big food, and the industrial war machine... Among others

We're all in love... End of the line 💁‍♀️😉

Hardly recognized the scrubbed up version of Holly. Funny the boat was built in my home town of Ipswich UK. Have fun

Nice boat. Yes, when we were passing the Rio Magdalena, 40 mi off the coast of Barranquilla, Colombia we saw much like this and worse. But we had 3 meter seas too. Enjoy your “luxury cruise”.

nice sail Holly - thanks

Wow Holly, i envy the richness of your life. I'm glad you can share your part of the world. Greg 🇨🇦

This was a great vlog. Thanks for sharing your travels with all of us.

Great for you to have a break from sailing your vessel

Loving your chilled vids!!

I would need to do a lot of organizing before my boat could stand a total search, I just spent 3 days to find some Lewmar stripper rings on the boat.

Give me one of your Gek storm ocean crossing videos anyday. But great to see you enjoying the luxury

Glad you got a nice rest!! ❤

Glad you had the restful month. Looking forward to seeing what you got up to.

So happy you got such a chill sail, it looked beautiful.🧡

Nice trip thanks for taking us along with you and the friends

I really enjoyed this passage but all of them are great. 100K is awesome, Cheers.

Always a pleasure watching your videos. ❤

Now that’s more my style ..1st class boat 👍😁.. cheers to all 🇨🇦🙋🏼‍♂️🙋‍♀️

As always, thanks Holly. Now I can go work on my refit with motivation.

So enjoy your new videos. Thanks 🍻

Bravo Wind Hippie!

So glad you had a chill passage after what seemed to be a series of challenging passages.

Hi, Holly, I'm glad you're still making videos.

Nice sailing trip, Holly. Thanks.

Love the way you say 'Indonesia'. Those logs in heavy seas. Imagine they crash land on your vessel! Loving your adventures. Keep them coming. Fair winds and following seas 😊

Really enjoy watching your travels. Super intriguing

Thanks!

Great Episode! Enjoy. 😊😊😊😊

Gee what a holiday sail after what you just sailed. Very nice boat to be in particular the dish washer and washing machine seemed to tickle your fancy lol cheers for the content was very relaxing 😊

Nice vacation! Especially after your long solo passage.

Great content young lady. Your attitude is refreshing.

You are one adventurous and cool person.....Love your videos....Real.....

❤ This was beautiful!

If you are still in Townsville make sure you checkout Magnetic Island. I lived out there for a month or so after a long stint as a Jackaroo in NSW. BTW I am from South Bristol! Keep on keeping on!!😎

That was amazing. Thank you

Amazing journey thanks for sharing..

Thanks, always inspiring, everyone should buy her a coffee ❤

Great times ~ thanks for sharing. 👍👍

Wow what a great trip Thanks for sharing

Inspired sailing (powered) lovely scenes and takes ❤

That looks like an amazing passage!

Uhuru is a gorgeous boat, but, Geck has a special place in my heart. Cool to see the ocean so calm it was as if you were traversing a lake. See ya in 2, Hols XO Darcee

So nice to have such a relaxing trip! Plus you got schooled on entering Indonesia!

Love your channel. And you of course!

Love your content!

Welcome to Queensland ❤❤❤

enjoy your holiday

Such A very cool change for you on the sail to Sarong, Indonesia. I just love watching your growth as a human. Ha ha. Luxury has its perks. 4hrs watches are so much better than 24hr watches.

Good vid. Thank you.

13.00... Look at that glass! Truly spectacular.

I worked the Florida keys in the Summer of 1974 off Marathon key. Many mornings the sea was flat as glass, and when the Gulf of Mexico was "in" one could see 100ft. Often we would lean over to check out the bottom and feel like we were going to fall 100ft down. Very weird feeling. ;)

Congratulations. I m enjoying watching your all the channels, fear winds, and following seas 🌊 ⛵️ Greetings from beautiful City Punta Arenas Antarctica Patagonia where strong winds are blowing from Antarctica

Thanks! I used to work on the american research boats that operate out of there

I am a new subscriber and have always dreamed of sailing. Living on a sailboat. Great channel. Love your content.

This past winter, I ended up becoming addicted to good sailing vids and just now found your channel! (new sub- yay!). I'm a semi-retired chef, so working seasonally is a fab thing. It was fun to learn that your fam's in Maine-- where I moved 5 years ago after a lifetime of vacations down in the Sebego area. Now I'm on an island living in this crazy old artist's camp. Sometimes during wind storms (and we've had our share recently) if I'm in the loft, I feel a bit like I'm on a ship... My windy winter hallucinations aside, I just wanted to thank you for such good content! Obv. the apple didn't fall far lol. I look forward to starting at the beginning (or some rando spot) and seeing more of your earlier adventures. Fair winds-- and Cheers from Maine! (abbey)

Greetings from Perth!!

Good times 🎉 I think you had a moment of clarity when comparing uhuru to gecko 🦎 crew plus bigger boat is more comfy

Enjoyed the video

I really thought this video was good. A good insight to the cruising life with the day to day shit that has to happen. Enjoy your time with the oyster!

New to the channel, but really enjoy your adventures!

New subscriber here! My friend pointed me your way, I’m sold! You are a great person indeed, from Clevedon, United Kingdom

very. Ice oyster boat from Ipswich town thanks for the video

Stay Safe Always

Excellent.

You earned your rest, last passage was hellacious,eh? Also ...you deserve the 100K!

Bravissimo !!!!😀😀😀

You are really very strong 💪🏻
