It’s a banner week in the sailing world! Yabba and Tally Ho launching so close together makes my heart happy!

@@HiltsyAdventure Yup. At frist sight both projects seemed to be pretty much impossible ...and then you meet the people that proof that if you re crazy and passionate enough, many times "impossible" is just a state of mind.

Yaba looks at home now . Not a single leak . That is testament to all the hard work and skill that went into rebuilding her .

Yabá and Tally Ho splashing in the same week on KZread, what a treat!

@@rolfsvensson5777 OK, I knew folks who cruised with pets. They used a woven mat with a very strong eye spliced on one corner. . The dogs were trained to use the mat and then it was tossed over the side and drug for a few miles for cleaning. More then likely the dogs will use the swim platform and it get sloosed off with buckets.

Being honest, I never thought this day would come in the beginning. I thought, this is a project with no plan and it's going to run out of money. I don't know how much it cost, but now, I don't care. I think you guys (Ben, MP, and especially MP's Dad, and the whole yard) totally smashed this project out of the park. Parabéns!

Yeah, I didn't think that timber was worth the effort of drying for burning! _The kids are alright._

Congrats, 3.5 years, of watching you both and the dogs, (the black dog climbing the stairs), with love and admiration wishing you the best.

This ship is a blessing for the eye! For me the most beautiful ship to own! One Dutch word! GEWELDIG!!!

Very nice ❤

Yaba looks so beautiful out on the water. People scuba diving off your boat will have such a special experience.

Ben and MP you must be so proud of what you have accomplished and so happy with the result. I find it difficult to believe it's been over 3 years since I started watching you and the shipyard crew rebuild this boat. What a journey and what a result. Congratulations to all involved.

You guys have worked hard to realise your dreams. You deserve to relax now and enjoy the journey. God bless.

Remembering back to the early days, all the doubters, especially about the engine that is just purring now. If what we've seen so far is any indication it's going to be an impressive boat under way.

I bet Leo didn’t say he splashed his boat, he’s a real sailor! 😊

YABA and Tally Ho, both in one week. How great is this? Congratulations to you both along with your 'shipmates'. Yaba is truly a gorgeous lady of the sea.

As many of y'alls videos as I have seen, it has never truly dawned on me just how BIG Yaba actually is until just now. For some reason, seeing Ben turn the wheel while she's in motion really brought it into perspective for me. I'm so excited for you guys. Congratulations! I hope you guys can sail up to Annapolis MD sometime and let me buy you both a drink. That would be pretty cool. At any rate. It's so awesome seeing this project finally come together and move under its own power. WITHOUT any leaks. Lol.

She looks beautiful and ready to go. After a very long rebuild, she is finally about ready to cut the cord and take on the adventures she was built for.

🎉💃🏼🕺CONGRATULATIONS on a SUCCESSFUL SPLASH!🕺💃🏼🎉

Nice to see water under the keel finally she looks very smart and trim on the water.

There's nothing more pleasing than to reach your goals in life. I wish you both a wonderful time and safe travels.

@17:27 is definitely a “finally!!!” moment. 😉

She looks so graceful back on the water in full glory. Well done you guys :) Cheers Ray (UK)

What beautiful story, a beautiful family and two beautiful dogs 🐕 and of course a beautiful boat, GO YABA

Yaba looks super cool at night with the lights

Good job Captain, First Mate and crew. I am so happy for the engine. Well done. Enjoy the efforts of your labor. Many new adventures ahead. ⛵️👍🏝️🌞

Yaba cuts thru the water so nicely with that clean new bottom ! The engine work was first class , reliability is key to worry free cruising and she sounds strong and steady .

Wow, Yaba, she handles like a sports car! Maneuverable and solid, well done!!

Yaba looks impressive big even in the water, and Ben handles her like she is a toy boat !

Happy ( MP's ) Dad, great job Sir.

Yaba'-Daba-do I'm so happy for you keep the videos coming, it's getting closer now and everything is looking beautiful, take care until the next time.

great to sea Yaba navigating on the water and how nice it looks all lit up at night

You’ve done such a terrific job on Yaba' and the engine room looks amazing!🎉 So happy for you both.

Feel great for you guys. What a perfect page in Yaba history. Now, Ben.....whenever you start that beautiful engine, keep your eyes on those gauges. Don't walk away until that oil pressure makes you smile.. :)

I just watched the episode again and it was better the second time around. Yabá is one very special boat! Those lights under the waterline, the ship horn, everything is perfect!

It was amazing to see Nico enjoying a ride on the river and one of the brothers who're the owners of the yard enjoying a barbecue at the end. I hope at some point all those involved at that yard get a chance for a short cruise and a barbecue with you as well. Especially the older gentlemen who's almost always never seen without a cigarette, I'm sorry his name escapes me right now. The level of craftsmanship that went into this rebuild was a pleasure to watch, getting it done old school with blood, sweat and tears as they say. Looking very much forward to continuing to see what and where your up to next. Fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless...

Once the kettle comes out, you're home! Congratulations and continued best wishes!

"Swimming with our own finns" Has to be the internet statement of the month! :)

It’s very cool to watch Yabá motor on the water and as I look her over, I can remember all the little details of how each individual piece was built. I feel like I know her almost as well as you do. So happy for you both!

Exciting, and rewarding achievement ahead of the dream future that you two are creating step by step! Perfect...love the wonderful proficiency you two project in all that you do as you learn, and also the seemingly effortless capability to carry foreign languages!!

Almost 100k come on guys subscribe congrats on the first sail. You must be so proud off your selfs and the guys at the shipyard.

The lines of the boat---a traditional dhow--are quite beautiful, It should give you lots of pleasure.

You have well and truly earned this grand success! Congratulations to you both, to the dogs, your family and friends, and the truly awesome shipyard crew.

It's wonderful to see everyone so happy! Good journeys ahead.

She's beautiful---can't wait to see her in full sail !!!!

Congrats! You know…..I thought this looked great in the shipyard! It looks even more incredible on the water! Great job!

Well done to everyone who worked to give Yabba her new life. Most of all, well done you two for taking her on and making a go of such an enormous project. Sail safe, sail on and may you ever find safe harbour on your travels. Cheers! R. 😎👍🍻

What a treat this week Tally Ho and Yaba launching within days of each other MP and Ben you both looks so happy and relaxed with a nice bbq with the builders and your two adotbed dogs see you next week

Well I am happy to see her moving under her own power. And you guys giving her some use she needs a little break in time I would think. I can only imagine how happy you two are to be living on Yaba again. Been a long hard journey. But you did it !

Hard work done but not forgotten as this allows you to fully appreciate the freedom and serenity soon to be yours, and so deserved ...

Congrats guys on your first trials. You are living the dream and all things will work out in finishing the boat.

It is so heartwarming to see Yabá back on the water. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Tally Ho just entered the water as well, both owners fulfilling the same dream. Restoring your wooden boats from the keel up. Two great videos 👍👍

Ah,...May you have red sky at night for you well-deserved future journeys. It looks like you have not lost your touch at the wheel. Landlubbers are gone and the dogs are with you. What a wonderful world.

Beautiful lighting at night, she cuts a fine line through the water at motoring, cant wait to see her under full sail, well done to you all and the traditional boat builders that put her together again.❤😊😊😊

Nice to see you both looking a lot more relaxed. Well done for everything, your hard work has really paid off. She looks wonderful.

After watching you from the very start, it seems unreal that you are back on the water. I can't wait to see where Yaba takes you!!!!!

what with Tally Ho and Yaba being launched it's been a great week, wish you all good sailing, and take care, MP you are one smiley person, your smile goes from one ear to the next.

I follow all the episodes from the beginning. Very exciting. You have fulfilled one dream, many more will follow. enjoy life

Dear Maria Paula and Ben, Willeke and I love to see how well Yabá is acting in the water and how smoothly the engine runs so we guess Yabá is seaworthy now. Of course there still needs to be done a lot before Yabá is completely ready but the most tuff parts are laying behind you. We look forward to your next episode and send you love from the Netherlands

It's so special seeing Yaba underway. Highest Blessings

These shots during the engine test is a good sample of how Yaba will look as it goes into the sunset for real. post-partum. 🙂

I'm so happy that you're safe onboard Yaba. What a beautiful boat. Who'd have believed three and a half years ago she'd be as gorgeous as she is now? All our love and here's to seeing many more episodes on the finishing and living aboard your pride and joy xx David Swain and family xx❤😊🎉❤

Guys, Yaba looks so majestic on the move from above. Can't wait to see her under full sail. ⛵

Congratulations on getting Yaba floating and moving under her own power again. 👏👏👏 A few odds and ends to srt and she will be looking like a ⛵ soon 2👍

It's great to finally see Yaba on the water. Can't wait to see her under sail.

It feels unreal to see Yaba in her right element. Awesome results of your hard work. Enjoy life, Yaba and each other. Love from Norway! Arne

Y'all are the luckiest folk on the face of the Earth right now congratulations

Seeing thr wake off of Yaba's prow, under way, superb. Can we get a "Finally" in Roberta style from Maria Paula.....A truly joyous episode in your saga towards sailing again for you both!

She’s an amazing ship with an amazing crew! Long live Yaba!

So nice to see the boat afloat. Congratulations!!

Amazing how Ben looks like he's conned that boat many times before! Almost as if he was born to it!

I was surprised by how nimble Yabá is. But from how she handles, I think she's saying, "Let's go!"

I'm SOooo impressed with the end project! She 's A Floating Queen!

What joy to see you sail... Ben at the helm... these are images we've long awaited... welldone and congratulaition Mp for the work on the engine...

Guys, you all are so natural, last week watching Yabá being propelled I had butterflies in my stomach in anticipation that everything goes well. It was a relief to see she took on to the water happily. With another week gone by and Yabá is doing more than well, she looks so beautiful in those drone shots, congratulations once more

Yaba looks beautiful afloat. Yes, this is not like being at the helm of a small sailboat-she is a big girl! I look forward to seeing you complete the work on her and following her with you on all your great adventures.

After such a long time and so much Hard Work. Wish you guys all the best of Luck in the WORLD. May the Sea sing you songs, may the waves move you along, may the wind take you to every Paradise. Happy Sailing :)

It is so nice to see Yaba under power. What an accomplishment after all these months. Cant wait to see her under sail and all the adventures ahead.

WOW , it looks exceptional in the water .. you all have really done an awesome job of re-creating a boat which already had awesome 'lines to fit your needs .. truly well planed out (kinda) and finished with utmost basic perfection , you should really feel the workmanship as you explore the many water-ways of the world .. i have enjoyed 'every video you have posted .. thanks a million .. steve reis sr .. i have 'no idea why a double post ..

5:54 No leaks, no spills and no ambulances... well done guys !

yaba looks beautiful going down the river,,,,,,,,SWEEEEEET......

She looks amazing on the water. The skipper not to bad either.

I had to watch the last two episodes twice to experience the joy on everybody's faces. What a fabulous accomplishment. Did you notice the two puffs of steam from the exhaust when you pulled away from the dock the first time? Look at the drone shot. I suspect it was an airlock in the salt water side of the exhaust cooling circuit which has now cleared itself. I do not remember seeing more steam when you moved the second time. Well done ALL of you.

Oh Wow!!! She is looking beautiful! Oh, Yaba looks nice too.

I just can not believe how beautiful this ship is

Yes Yes Yes.... Yaba looks so good on the move ... verry well parking skills of captain Ben .... looking forward to the coming adventures ....greets and all the best wishes from friesland...max...
