  • The music choice when you started to take the shed down, was PERFECT! "Time to move on, it's been too long... I feel the freedom"
  • Two of the most creative and talented people on YouTube, making magic each week and sharing it ad-free. Wonderful to see MC II emerging from her winter hibernation, more beautiful than ev!
  • This is going to be the premier of probably the most perfectly restored boat in the world. She may not be the product of a super rich owner; but boy, she shows the results of loving, skilled and passionate owners. When this boat sails into a port there will be many envious observers. Kudos guys.
  • When you look at the boat from behind and without the roof over it, you can see how beautifully the boat is cut. Thank you for these pictures of your wonderful boat.
  • Nothing quite as satisfying as stepping back an admiring how far you have come. It gives you that extra push to get you across the finish line. She is really starting to let her personality shine on not what she might be, but what she has become. Great job!
  • The butterfly emerges, and she is a beauty! Perfect testament to all your hard work and persistence. Congratulations!
  • @bruce5285
    This sailboat had good bones, but now it has great bones, and it's showing through in the beautification process. The transformation is incredibly rewarding!
  • Love watching the boat work progression and the mile stones tumbled. Aladino, your teaching moments are top shelf! Maya, your musical score has become my very favorite aspect of this channel. My best to you both!
  • I know the marina where the boat is and my opinion is that they did not just "forgot" about you, they very so discretely helped you, because that is just who they are.
  • @hecdc7703
    She's looking beautiful! Great work.
  • @TotalBoat
    The gelcoat looks so good! Also, congrats on taking the tent down. One step closer to getting back in the water!
  • @Mark-ct5dh
    I was so happy for you two to see the boat in her natural environment!! I've watched the progress from the very start of the project! Truly I can't wait to see Magic Carpet II in the water and doing what she was destined to do!!
  • @kranzonguam
    Magic Carpet coming out of the shed is like seeing powerful bird being released from a cage! Soon it will be time for her to spread her wings! Congratulations!!Take good care!
  • In fact, Magic Carpet II is an art piece in the shape of a boat :)
  • Magic! You made my day.... And it is, as expected, the most beautiful sailing vessel in the harbor... Just wonderful...
  • @ApexWoodworks
    I couldn't be more impressed by the diligence and smart work the two of you have put forth in bringing life back into what is quickly becoming such a beautiful and functional boat. You're building your future, you two, and thank you ever so much for bringing us along on your journey!

    Do yourself a favour and move to 07:45! What a CAPABLE BOAT that is, combining beauty and strength. Bravissimo!
