Journeys and notable episodes
They haven’t really sailed all that much, with a strong focus on the restoration project.
Outside of having friends, family and YouTube fans giving a helping hand, I haven’t seen them with other popular channels.
If you admire their restoration project, then be sure to check out similar channels which include Odd Life Crafting and Sailing Emerald Steel.
