Sailing La Vagabonde and Outremer The UNTOLD STORY - Ep 18

Sailing La Vagabonde and Outremer – here is the UNTOLD STORY about why this deal became the biggest story in sailing in 2016 and continues to be bigger than the America’s Cup ! Stewart has been digging into the state of the sailing industry and turned up some remarkable trends caused by what else? YouTube Sailing Video’s !

For regular viewers, we will be returning to our Atlantic crossing video log next week, as we set off on a 3,000 mile non-stop passage from Ascension Island to Barbados.

Luckyfish Gets Away is a sailing Vlog from a reasonably priced and really cool catamaran !

You can find out a whole lot more on these videos by visiting:

Almost every cruiser these days has a cat or wants a cat, but the fact is, few can afford them. Here at Luckyfish Gets Away we believe that cruising has always been about the performance, not the stage. We try to keep our platform simple and sustainable, so we can max out on experiences.

None of this would have been possible without the love of sailing from fellow sailors. That pretty much covers it.

Big thanks to Tatono for his creative sounds!

Youtube creators are 100% responsible for my interest in sailing, and I'm thankful for it

[ruthnagarya]

I never thought there WAS a sailing channel to view on YouTube until I came across La Vagabond series and ....pow...the experiences of Elayna and Riley have made me realize that sailing is not as complicated as I thought!

[saltyduck]

fascinating stuff....unbelievable stats that those two homemade channels outweigh Americas like that like it a lot!

[dhamma]

nice look at what is happening with the numbers....as regards sailing channels it seems to me that personality as well as story content counts...lots of good channels out there!

[daangs]

As someone who will never be able to afford a new boat I'm more encouraged to see the popularity of boat refit channels like Sail Life. Better to see more affordable older boats back on the seas rather than the modern 'more extras than your house' millionaire's toys. Not at all jealous!

[MrMusinus]

cool! love the different fresh angle of perception for information, talking about it as sports like that makes sense. thanks!

[William-tw]

I think you're absolutely correct. Great analysis. I don't even said, because I'm too old and I'm disabled, but the YouTube SV channels (several of them) get my old sailor's heart racing. Keep up the wonderful work.

I am a YouTuber in the 4WD touring market, and this new media is indeed the democratisation of filmmakers like myself. Thanks for making this video! I love Sailing La Vagabond and support them on Patreon. Which I also use and is a significant contributor to my own channel. I think I am going to make a video like this but for my industry.

Very interesting data. I'll be joining the cruisers out there this year.I'll also be Vlogging & Blogging also. Cheers

[iCollabor]

Thanks - I sponsor and follow the two vblogs you refer to - I think that despite issues of clickbait nudies these are really great programs for yachties to follow.

More importantly you have woken me up the Google trends which can be used for all our business projects

[madogblue]

I have followed several of them other channels since their inception. Your channel is every bit as interesting in a fresh and different way, good luck on growing your subscriber base

[truckstevo]

Fascinating! I've been subscribing to SV LaVagabond and SV Delos since the early times (20k subscribers) what an excellent illustration of the power of YouTube and the entrepreneurial spirit of these two groups of folks. Calm seas everyone!

[Prodigalzson]

Thanks for this. These videos make sailing seem realistic to those of use who are not wealthy and unfamiliar with the lifestyle. I hope it continues.

[eptyr]

I enjoy Lazy Gecko, La Vagabond, and Delos adventures and have been following all of them since their inception. They are all vastly different in focus and interest but none are less entertaining. I feel as if they are inviting me along with them as they explore places I will never be and many places I have been to but by plane. Congrats to all of them, regardless of "clickbait" which I ignore, they are just good stories.

[SailingPauHana]

Very nice explanation. I hope the trends for ALL sailing search terms will begin to trend in the same direction. Thanks for sharing.

[MrEroshan]

I think you are spot on. Much interest in the sailing lifestyle has been initiated by YouTube channels on the subject.

[tkjokester]

Excellent analysis. Very insightful and educational information!

[godfathercz]

Thanks for the non-trivial insight. Subscribed your channel right away!

[eagerv]

Very interesting, never thought before about these stats, Food for thought...

[TonyAnschutz]

Great perspective. I hadn't considered those stats but it does seem a valid trend! Thanks for that!
