Our First Romantic Night Onboard..
Guys, La Vagabonde is FINALLY in the water! This week we're hoisting her sails for the very first time 🎉
Join us the Nhà Bè River where we are testing out every single sail we have onboard LVIII alongside Alan (Doyle Sails), Zam & Mark (Rapido). After navigating this incredibly busy river, our onboard crew will depart... leaving Riley and I to settle down for our first (romantic) night onboard!
It's nice to be thrown in the deep end of learning our floating home's new rigging... especially with exciting sailing plans ahead!
PS: In celebration of LVIII finally our on the water, we're launching our new website & merch! We hope you love these new designs as much as we do. Check them out via our new website sailinglavagabonde.org 💛
As always, to all our Patrons, a massive thank you for your support. We couldn't embark on these kinds of adventures without you. Riles and I hope you enjoy this early (Ad Free) preview of this weeks episode!

Yeawwwww!!
Love,
Elayna, Riley, Lenny & Darwin

You need pots that take a magnet for an induction cooktop. Induction works on magnetic technology. You will love it! Best cooking method ever (opinion)!
where are the EXCLUSIVE next episode previews ????
Absolutely no contact from the channel, skid the boat fall apart ..????
Hey guys are you still alive we have had nothing are you OK .?
What an amazing boat!! I cannot wait to see her under sail. At thei point a giant WELL DONE MATES!!
Also, do you have any vintage merch? I love your new logo, but also very attached to the old logo.
Do you have a size chart for merch? Are they US sizes? UK, AU? They are all different.
Elayna was impressed with the sharpness of the "chef" knife, basic sharpening with a stone is occasionally needed, but like a barber's leather strop, they make strops on a paddle that will keep them extra sharp($20 US) easy to store. Riley you have your work cut out for you learning the "in's and out" of your new home! Can't wait to see you all crusing in the "blue"! Be safe, you know the selfish side of me enjoyed weekly videos, but the fact is now you can "live" a little" and it really makes me long for a video by the 2nd week! 😎😎🤿🤿🤿🤿🐟🦞🌏🎥🥰🥰
is the new video posting schedule every two weeks now?
I loved the video! Know all too well about ship horns all night. Pht! hey_ any chance you could please put details on the clothes, like what they are made of, but especially the inseam on the pants? I’m a long tall girl. Also, is a Jumper a hoody? 🙃
I really want the Tshirt that has a coffee with a sailboat in the cup with octopus legs hanging over. I dont see that in the store.
So excited for you guys. What a wonderful way to open the next chapter of your inspiring life. In the tech world, what you're doing is called "debugging". Software never works the first time you run it, and if it does, it's lying to you! Keep at it, and eventually she'll be rock solid.
"It's a third more marans, mate!" would make a great T-shirt. It's got to be exciting, knowing that everything you do is being done for the first time, and every single nautical mile under her keel will be by your hand. Amazing!
So cool!! That brow water, plants (trees?) and debris were nerve wracking. Soo excited for you guys! Can’t wait to see it in some blue water. Cheers!
Riles, does this boat pretty much drive itself? Having to stand to steer would not be practical for very long passages in bad weather. You can steer from inside and via auto pilot right? Of course I am old…..
Congratulations with the amazing boat! We are just back from our trip to Japan, on land though. It was our top bucket list holiday destination and has delivered in every way! Amazing food, culture and nature. Can't wait to see you sail over there! I'm sure the beautifull foutage will have me dreaming of a sail trip to Japan too.
Congrats to you! A long journey ends and the next begins!
WOW! It does look homey and cinematic. Who knew? (y'all did)
We have a quick boil burner on our stove and we don't use any special untensils to cook on it. It;ll ramp up a kettle in a hurry! Can't wait to see you guys make this "hot rod" fly! I can see why Riley wants to concentrate specifically on the expensive , more important items, don't think just anyone could manage these new technological systems! La Vagabonde III looks good on you both!🥇🤿🤿🤿🤿😎🥰🦞🌏🐟🎥
Riley, what sailcloth did you choose from Doyle and what are you going to make for shade over the helm?
Wow what a beautiful boat! Your hard work has paid off! Looking forward to the next movie 😊⛵️
AAAAAAAH how moody the lighting is at night! The vibe of this boat is soooo damn good! So fun to see the romantic side of you two! 😘
The boat is looking amazing!!! Congrats. I hope you have had time to look back on all of the hard work that has brought you to this point. Cheers to you both!
The boat looks absolutely amazing 👀😍 so stoked for the upcoming videos! Can’t believe it’s been three years in the making, seems like yesterday when you left la vagabonde 2 for the first time
The kitchen looks PHENOMENAL, it looks sooo good! Great job!
Congratulations!
The boat is SICK!!! Totally getting the James Bond vibes, it's slick and beautiful. Really great job you guys! Loving the minimalistic look!
Is the sizing AU, UK, US? I’ve experienced AU runs smaller
Love this guys! Getting back to what we love, you guys and sailing! The interior is growing us too, well done there. You've probably set a new trend now and see a lot of boat owners doing the same. What the chance of you two signing your book too "The SLV Essential Sail Guide" when I've purchased lots of your new stuff? We all love you guys. Keep up the excellent work. 💕⛵
If a magnet doesn’t stick to the bottom of your pots and pans, induction burners won’t work. At least that was the case for our induction hot plate! 🤷🏻♂️
Super thrilled for all of you. I can’t wait for more more more of sailing that beauty!
Love it! 💙🙏💙🙏💙
Fk I'm so jealous of you both And the interior is sensational, so eclectic and it's perfect I love the colour of the hulls. The colour has awesome energy
I love the interior. Truly.
Hi everyone! Shopify is currently down... so that's why you're experiencing issues accessing our new merch store lol. We will update you when it's back up and running.
Ok seems like it's back online! Sorry team. Try again: https://sailinglavagabonde.shop
Awesome!!! So very happy for you all. Love the interior. Where you were eating gave a warm feeling. As for induction,yes,make sure youve got right cookware. Most are these days. I love mine!! So pretty. Wont ever go back to gas. Enjoy!!! Hugs 🤗 love 💕 and Happy Sailing ⛵⚓ Debi in California❤
Congratulations!!! This is so exciting! Can’t wait to see you guys out sailing! ❤️
I love the way Riley shows his pride and hapiness. Where Elayna expresses herself with words, for Riley you just look at his glow, shining so brightly. Not an ear to ear smile but something much more subtle yet powerfull! And yes, you do need special pots for induction!
The link to the store doesn’t work 😩
Hey Cheryl, Shopify is currently down worldwide. We will update you when the store is back up and running. Sorry!
So excited for you in the next chapter of your journey!
Was so excited when the notification popped on my phone, I dropped everything and watched it. So worth the wait !! The boat is magical and glad to see you guys enjoying your first night on board Thanks for sharing ⛵️
Beautiful boat!!
You guys are such incredible people, I’m so excited for everything you have coming up. Much love!
Not me literally waiting on this video EITHER. :D ...and already in joyful tears for you, didn't expect it and you're just on the boat.
Ya babay! BTW, the link on the site for the shop goes to https://sailinglavagabonde.shop/ which seems like a dead end. The link in the video (shop-lavagabonde.com) seems to work fine.
Bugger! Thanks for pointing this out to us... working on fixing this issue now.
Yes you need special pots & pans for induction. https://www.thespruceeats.com/what-is-the-best-cookware-for-induction-cooktops-908920
Ah, ok! Thanks Leni!
Not me literally waiting on this video. Lol
