Sailing Magic Carpet

Sailing Magic Carpet We are Maya and Aladino. We spent 5 years rebuilding Magic Carpet II, our Cape George Cutter 36. The entire journey is documented on YouTube.

This one post has been six years in the making. We bought this boat in 2020, and now in 2026 it’s finally performing and looking how we wanted all along. It was a long road, but now we’re reaping the rewards.

If you’re curious to learn more about the refit and the results, everything is documented on our YouTube channel, Sailing Magic Carpet. We just posted a full interior tour over there as well.

Oh boy. We messed up a little today haha. I posted our regular Friday episode… and then someone in the comments said “you do know it’s Thursday, right?”

Well, we do now! Bahahahha.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this episode, out a day early! In it, we launch the boat and Aladino gives you a full deck tour. Plus, we show you some excellent new additions to our anchoring setup from Mantus Marine Products.
