• SAILING PLANS! Prepari...
Yes! This is awesome news. If we can assist in intel let us know!
Awesome! Thanks team, yes for sure! No doubt we will be in touch! Bonita’s been rewatching your sails across! X
The sailing community is so impressive, with eagerness to help other cruisers. Good on you! Bonita and Yosh are a fun couple. And I'll be waiting for your next episode. Your North American bud, :¬) Webhead USA
Stay safe when you are sailing. Lodge your sailing plans with smart traveller or who ever looks after boats sailing around the world and even leave plans with your families.. sounds like an awesome trip.
Thank You, Sonny and Cher and Good Luck.
Talk with Brian from Delos about Madagascar, they loved it. They also stopped at the protected British Islands in the Indian Ocean and were blown away by the sea life. Good luck, looking forward to your new adventures ahead. :)
Greetings from South Africa here. Hope we can meet up somewhere along the coast line. Wishing you fair winds and following seas.....
The reason I've been watching your channel for 5+ yrs is because you two are the genuine article. You are as about down to earth people as they come.
I like how Marley gets a say, very cool to be cruising with your dog
Dont worry if You get to richards bay in the summer months You wil be fine, Richards Bay and the Durban area have a Subtropical Warm humid climate, remember the aghulas currant a warm tropical currant, Richards Bay get pretty humid and even in winter it warm there, only if you go down pass the wild coast towards East London do the weather get cold! So You guys wil be fine coming from the tropics!
Just make sure you don,t route trough pirate ville . No need to become hostages there . Have a safe sail .🙏😇🥰🥰❤️&Light. I will show my nose every now and then . 😊
Mate, South Africa is hot in December, especially Richard's bay, good route, most cruisers do this route, it's the tried and tested one, stay away from anything north of Tanzania, feral seaspace north. Timing looks good, Nose Be is awesome, friends just spent 4 months there and in Mauritius, Moz channel can be hectic but your direction of flow of Aghulas current is wrong, flow is east to west but there is a local counter current up the channel. The Moz channel will be the toughest along with the N tip of Madagascar, lot's of great places to hide/visit in Mozambique, Durban is a pig shite working Harbour, as is PE, try and do RB to East London, then if you can try and get into St Francis, only stop in PE if there's a feral westerly, from St Francis you can stop at Knysna (extremely dangerous and weather dependent) but a beautiful estuary, or Mossel Bay, then I'd head to Hout Bay. (I'm currently on the hard in PE in preparation for a single handed Atlantic crossing around October) so am pretty familiar with the coastline here, If I'm still here around then I'll buddy boat with you from East London but I doubt it......I'm already 18 months behind my original time frame 😢😢 But I've learned that time frames don't go well with sailing😂😂😂
Awesome info cheers. Have spies that Marina in at St Francis years ago, it’s a must stop destination for us! Good luck in your prep!
Sv delos came to SA via Madagascar .Reunion Mauritius and Madagascar have amazing fishing.you won't be sorry.people are friendly on this route.Also good sail loft in Mauritius for repairs etc.Been watching you since the beginning.Have canvas business in Plettenberg Bay.Would love to meet and assist with canvas work repairs on the house.....etc
Beware of bribing in Madagaskar and South Africa.....
Happy for you guys. We are with you all.
20 days at sea will be a challenge. You guys can do it. Have fun on the way.
Sailing Nahoa sailed your planned route a couple of years ago with a couple of kids under five. I hope you have a great trip through that area and Fair Winds and Calm Seas!!
I wouldn’t be counting on stopping at ‘those little atolls’ in Moz channel… they’re military bases and monitored by navy and from the air. You’ll get kicked out
Thanks for the info
South Africa is hot, nothing like South Australia. Tomorrow, on the West Coast above Cape Town, it will be 41c
Long time coming indeed you Legends!! Amazing to see all your hard work and determination and passion (plus literaly blood, sweat, tears) come to fruition. Looks like a similar route that Delos did especially if you stop at Cocos Keeping eh? I’m sure you’re talking to everyone. :) SHAKAAAA! ❤
All the best Nandji crew!!!
Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦Looking forward to following this leg of your sailing journey ⛵
Sounds like you need to talk to Sailing Florence for some advice. However, I think they went south of Madagascar. Sailing Nahoa did the North of Madagascar.
And Delos did Madagascar twice!
Smart decsion not traveling by way of Yemen because of conflict between Israel and Gaza Strip. The Houthis have said that when conflict the violence and attacks on ships will stop.
We will wait for you in Cape Town
Please come to South Africa and make a stop in Durban and we can organise a little meet up. The summer starts in September I can show you my boat build it's a compass 47 and you can even video it and make an episode for UA-cam

SO EXCITING!!!
If you are heading to east Africa you should not miss lake Malawi. I own a lodge called chiponde beach resort on likoma island. If you fancy a break after that journey you can stay for free. I should have my boat by then.
Sounds amazing!! Thanks
Omg im soo excited for you all!,! Cannot wait t9 watch these episodes! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Good to see you are staying well clear of the Somalian pirates. You need to do a little research on safety going up to the north of Madagascar and then across to SA. Beware S E wind Cape Town summertime and N W wind Hout Bay winter months. That area was my home for 23 years 😊
LOL, you guys have short term memories? To my memory, it was four years ago pretty much exactly that you were about to leave from Thailand or Malaysia to Africa. You even had a contact set up in South Africa, but then Covid hit, causing you to spending the past four years in Malaysia and Thailand. Yes, I've been following you for this long. It was your travels in the South Pacific, the Solomon Islands in particular, that first caught my attention. Anyway, I am looking forward to following along on your next adventure. Finally! :-)
Please pick the safest route and safest places to stay at for you 4. 😊 I don't want nothing bad to happen to any of you.
If I remember correctly, "Sailing Brickhouse" caught COVID in Madagascar, and hubby died by the time they reached S. Africa, the bug is still out there and morphing, so be careful ! ❤
YOO the map on the humbnail reminded me that you should do a quick video on your thoughts on "flatearth". Just an idea. Been subbed for years. Blessings.
Flatearth is a sheeple mythology!
@@rickkwitkoski1976 agreed..upon many other ideologies and theories. I'm curious to what he would have to say about the matter.
Now you really got my attension!!!
I'll be with you all the way. Good luck!!!
Wow, this sounds so exciting, can't wait to travel along with you by watching your vlogs 🤗💞
Love your vids, been watching for years. So pleased you’re getting out of Australasian. Hold fast, look after each other. You are gonna love your destinations.
Hello Legends!!! The route to South Africa looks like a fantastic journey. The SV Delos crew went back to Madagascar for a second look when they passed through there so it seems like a really good place to explore when you cruise through that area once you hit reunion Island. Thanks for sharing. Yew!
I did this route many times during my childhood aboard my parents’ boats - the common route we took was Sri Lanka/Maldives/Chagos/Madagascar/mainland Africa. If you pass the northern tip of Madagascar, give it a wide berth, it always seemed very rough up there - that’s why we often headed towards Mayotte first. Cheers!
Yay we will chat closer to the time we hopped from bottom tip of sumatra had to tear ourselves away from the surf. We did Chagos top Madagascar down the channel was amazing Richards bay east London St Francis Simonstown Saldana bay. Then we will take you guys surfing yeeha
Yep it will be hard to leave the mentawai but us surfers will find waves anywhere!! 😂 bring on reunion, Madagascar and SA!!
Also think about Chagos. Wonderful place.
I live in Mtunzini, just south of Richards Bay. The last Cyclone we had here in Zululand, was in 1984 - Domoina - which was really damaging. It was followed shortly by Cyclone Imboa that was a lot of rain, but not too damaging! Cyclones generally don't come as far South as Richards Bay, although in 1984, we were warned to expect Cyclones in Zululand on average, every 7 years!
Generally Cyclones that do come ashore hit the Mozambique coast. Last year, Beira was hit by 2 Cyclones in quick succession. They severely damaged the Estoril hotel on the beachfront. We were last there as a family in 1972 when the Portuguese colonial masters were fleeing. Their incredibly poor construction methods were even then deteriorating. As far as I am aware Cyclone Season is January to April. I am not yet a sea vessel sailor but am interested in buying a 30 - 35 foot yacht in GRP, one not too large to single handedly sail. I know how to sail day sailors, so upgrading to a 30 - 35' should not be too dramatic.
In the last 4 decades we have lived not far from Richards Bay, we have always lived in Mtunzini and worked almost exclusively in Empangeni. Richards Bay gets really hot from November through to - and including February. I believe that this is because Richards Bay appears geographically to have risen from the ocean, so cooling breezes blow over the city and don't clear the super heated air away. A few years back now, a tanker drifted outside the channel into the Harbour and broke its back in the shallow (for a fully laden tanker) water. You must be able to float in less draft! That being said, there are many sights not too far away from Richards Bay to be explored.
It's going to be an amazing journey
Can't wait to come along with you
Looking forward to see you in Cape Town . We cruised our own sailboat for 15 years now land cruisers .
You guys rock! Been watching since the start and can't believe how well you have both done. 😎👍
I'm sure you guys already know, but Sailing Nahoa did this trip 6+ months ago.
GOD BLESS AND BE SAFE!!!!!
See you in Cape Town....
Amazing passage New's, we all are wishing you the best on this portion of your life adventure. You both look so Happy, we understand the Hospital stay was very unnerving, yet after the Home visit appears all is going very well. Please keep us posted on the passage and Gods Speed.
Oh! you ARE taking Marly. That's great. I should have waited. Re Sth Africa. Capetown is great with weather very much like Adelaide. J/Burg is a waste of time. The Island of Zanzibar is a wonderful place to visit as well. (Just off the coast of Tanzania.)
Sounds awesome, go for it!
Starlink roaming is going to be a game changer for your viewers during the crossing.
Can't wait to see your next adventures. Please stay safe and have the wind in your sails
This is exciting…little hard to pick up warm clothes where you are but I am sure you will figure out. What an adventure this will be. Smooth sailing and have fun…
Everyone is stearin clear of the Red Sea for safety reasons, so good idea to hop skip and jump 15’ and head west young man. You may have said, but how many days sailing west once you leave Thailand across the Indian Ocean? All the best and La Vagabond have set up an app for hooking up with others.
Thanks guys, GO MARLEY MAN.👍🏻💕💓🐾🦴
Good route mate,definitely stay at Richard's bay,stay away from durban,definitely would love to meet up with you legends,but December you'll be sweating bullets😅
Thanks!
❤ Another great video 👍
30 over night , bit cold with the A/C on
Please, PLEASE stop over in Mosselbay. South Africa. I will come and visit you. It will be a privelage!!!!
I can't believe how much you have gotten done in basically a year. I can't wait to see what comes next!
Epic!
# id hang around Mauritius 🦤 until its time to skip around the tip to touch St Helena for provisions, then get on the move to catch the surf in Morocco. 🌊🏄 Safe sailing.
U can follow amy and ryan from sailing florence they did much the same route .😊
Richard's bay is hot in December, late November may be a bit better
Great purpose hope you stick to the plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excitement pours through the screen 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
South africa won't be south aus cold unless you go down to Cape Town or inland to Johannesburg.
Durban is subtropical and very similar in climate to SEQ. Mozambique is nice too for a fish and a surf. Winters are dry and as you know Indian Ocean and the warm aghulus current.
I surfed year.round with no wetsuit when I was younger.
I'm a South African from Durban living in SEQ now. Durban winters are warmer than SEQ winters.
If you want some recommendations on surf spots and general things to do, give a shout 🤙🏼
Cheers for the insight and Yes, would absolutely love some inside knowledge on places to go and waves to find!! Cheers!!
Frothlyfe@gmail.com 🤘
Come on
I sail out of Melbourne
Go to tassie often etc
Winter sailing is some of the best
Toughen up
😂 you know the difference between you and us? You live in Melbourne
family + freedom - Awesome
South Africa after Novem😊ber for you guys are not cold but not as tropical as where you are now. Inland in the nortern parts you can have temps well above 30 degrees Celsius. On the coast though below Durban it can be cool and blustery at times.
Cape Town this week, 33-38°c.
Is there ocean-going lyrics to fit Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again" for Nandji? Okay, I'm humming the song for you! And happy for you. :¬) Webhead USA
I'm excited for you. As an American non-sailor, my acquaintance with the southern Indian Ocean comes from two sources: the search for MH 370 which was hindered by storms and enormous waves, and UA-cam videos of the tankers facing walls of water that look to be 100 feet high. I hope that kind of weather happens only in another season!
Madagascar!!!!
I reckon you'll get to Indonesia by 2025. Good luck!
Great news! Can't wait to follow you west!
Great stuff
Why miss Mozambique? Most stunning islands, beach's and tropical reefs as well as the best fishing! Ozzies always welcome!
It pays to do some prior research on the places you wish to go 🤔
Off to J Bay Yoshie!!
There's no way he is missing that.
Crossing the Indian just to visit j bay 😂
Nailed it 🤘
@@FrothLyfeSailingNandji Have you told Bon yet that your first born son will be named Jeffrey?
Yahoo .. this has been so long coming. Cannot wait to see the adventure.
So much nervous excitement. I will be awesome!!! Living life to the fullest. Thats how it should be 😀
You are amazing totally love following you Africa sounds amazing good on you Carol king xx
Yosh, love the Prince Valiant haircut matey.
Wow this is going to be an awesome year following your journey. If I were able to come along on the sail this would be the one I'd pick 2nd option. Gentlemen and Ladies start your engines and or fans
Sounds like a very good choice! Staying out of the Red Sea is a VERY good thing! Even with no military problems there is way to much piracy there. Remember too you'll be in South Africa during their summer. Not Thailand warm but livable! Can't wait! The adventure continues!
Looks like a big new adventure for you and all of us.
My son just returned from being stationed in Djibouti. I'd stay far away from that area. My Daughter is leaving for Africa soon too. Be careful.
Good winds
SV Nahoa just did that trip
Exciting adventures… best wishes!
We've been waiting for this trip for 5 years, ha ha ha.
You and us both!!
Sounds like a new sparrow and a shell back tattoo in your future
Great route I'm glad Marley was factored in
Always
Exciting much! Look forward to it ✨🌟✨🌟
Define cold .
Paul from Canada. LOL
Minus15 Celsius in Calgary Canada today you will be ok
Hi try and get a hold off sailing Zartara and sailing Florence they done this route to Africa
Ahoy! :-) I'm so excited for you guys! I'm not familiar with the route so it'll all be new to me.... and that is awesome! Exploring thru your eyes so please post video as much as you can. (And stay connected with other boats!) Hope to start contributing later this year. Cheers! ❤✌️
You two have got yourselves a really wonderful vessel. So happy for you and your family. Cheers!
Fantastic to see you moving. It’ll be great to see love you guys. Go Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi 😊
You chose the right route, south African summers are very nice.
Excellent news,can’t wait for this,keep up the good work 👍👍👍
yeeewwwww!
