catching up...
You're an "engineer", Gary! Standard transmission should be in your sleep!
Living The Dream you are! At this point, all I can say is thanks for taking us along.
Thanks so much for coming along with us, Rick!
Wow how beautiful. Amazing!!! Thx guys for sharing. U guys are truly living the dream. ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙌🏼

I want to live there 😊
Right?! Such a beautiful place!
Wow guy's that waterfall walk was like you was on a different planet for sure so amazingly beautiful!! Like always guy's thanks for another awesome episode I am so excited to see more from you both on your epic south pacific adventure! Stay safe and enjoy cheers.
Hey Danny! Thanks! It was awesome in that valley area. Looking forward to sharing our next video! Cheers!
Hey you guys, I lived in Hawaii for a while and I learned something that might help you with your bread problems. Instant pancake mix. It's bread and alls you have to do is mix water with the Instant mix. And you cook ot in a frying pan so you don't waste alot of gas to heat the stove. I know it doesn't sound right but just disregard the pancake word. It works in a pinch.😊Oh yeah, I know I said this before but I'm gonna say it again. I love your dodger with all that isonglass and very little seems.
Interesting you mention this. I've thought about using instant pancake mix before. The word pancake always gets in the way though! I'll give it a go sometime.
I’m not even on a boat but I’m trying it too.
I second this. We do this alot but we add a bit of extra baking powder to the mix.
Agreed!! I even think one of the pancake mixes shows a recipe for biscuits!
Interesting! Definitely going to give it a go! Thanks everyone!
You need to get yourself one of those collapsible carts from West Marine. That product is the most affordable and useful thing they sell. It holds two Gerry cans, possibly three.
We've seen those! Maybe we can pick one up in New Zealand!
I’ve seen other UA-camrs videos in the Marqueses and yours content is by far most exciting
Thank you so much! We really appreciate your comment and are happy to hear you are enjoying our videos!
Wow! That dive looked insane! And the coming out the pass looked gnarly!
Hi!!!! Miss you!
excellent videoing. So glad you had a great time, Looking forward to next video
Hi Jonathan! Thank you! Hope you are having a good weekend!
Another video full of awesome footage of places I most likely will never see. Thanks guys! Keep on keeping on. ⛵️
Thanks for coming along with us, Jen! Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season! 💙
Parade found, pretty well sums it up. Personally I would have a hard time ever leaving. And why would anyone? So groovy, just like you two. What a lovely couple. Stay safe and stay groovy until the next time.
Agreed. It is tough to leave places like this. But there is a whole big world out there for us to see!
This is so cool guys. Awesome to have been with you in Annapolis when this was just a plan, and to see you two persevere and make it come true. So happy for you guys!
Thanks, Larry! Really appreciate it! Crazy to think we accomplished so much in one year!
As always, thanks for taking us along your journey…..need to catch up on the videos! Hugs, 🤗
Hi Obie! Thank you! 🤗Hope you and Laurie had a wonderful holiday! 💙
Thanks for sharing your happiness! great Journey!
Hi Eduardo! Thanks for coming along with us! 🌎
Wow! What a great one! Honestly, I can’t believe places like that still exist, it was like something you dream about or somewhere that you “hide” in your dreams! Sometimes, I wonder how you keep going & don’t just Stay when you come across places like this. It’s how I picture Eden too, just phenomenal! Thanks!❤
We would love to stay in all the places! But the excitement of seeing some place new, always calls to us. Maybe one day we will find a place and never leave! 💙
@@SailingOneLife Maybe you and We Sail in Moorea.
A Spartan and his bombshell of a wife!! Great vids
Aww thanks Sean! 🥰💪
What a beautiful episode guys ‼️ 🎉 💕 Thank you. All done with the Marquesas Islands?? OMG,there a bunch of islands in that archipelago and you only [for us] explored 2. Where to next? MERRY CHRISTMAS ✨ 🎄 ✨ ✝️ ✨ 💕
Hey Richard! We actually visited four of the six inhabited islands. Fatu Hiva-where we made landfall, Tahuata-where we met Jimmy and had BBQ, Hiva Oa-where we experienced the hog hunt and lastly- Nuku Hiva! But yes, onward! We have lots to see and show you! Next up, Tuamotus! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well! ❤🎄
@@SailingOneLife 🙂💕
Good move speeding up the footage of you guys loading the jerrycans.....that was quite funny.
Ha, glad you liked that! We were trying to make the mundane fueling a bit more interesting!
Beautiful Island. Wow, bit of a chore just to get fuel. It's a shame they don't have a service that can bring it to you. Wow, what a fantastic view. Ooh that food looks delicious. Amazing. Love the vlog :)
The Marquesas are so beautiful! So thankful we were able to experience it! Thanks for watching and all the support in 2023! Here's to 2024! 🥂🥳
Always great to see you both again. Merry Christmas, Brooke and Gary. Thanks for another year of "wishing I was there videos". Have a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. Ed
Hey Ed! Always good to hear from you! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas! See ya next video!
Umm ... the french sign also read 'access prohibited'! 🤣 Worth it though, what an amazing hike!
Ignorance is bliss sometimes! 🤣
From Pig 🐖 hunting to bread baking! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Nice one!
Haha! What's next?!
You guys are a great couple. Love you.
Thanks, John! Really appreciate it! Sending love your way!💙
Such a great place, judging from your excellent video of your adventure there!❤️
Thank you! The Marquesas definitely wow'd us!
That place is beautiful !! The car rental reminds me of some of the places I'd go to work on boats. I'd always schedule a day or two while I was there to get a car and explore where I was.
Seeing a place by car is always fun! Especially for us when we only drive once every few months!
Just Wow! What an amazing video! Love the looks on your faces too. I reckon all that boat yard work is really paying back now! I’m watching this on Christmas Eve so here’s wishing you both the Merriest of Christmases and a wonderful adventurous New Year ❤🎄👏👏👏⛵️
Thank you! Our time in the boat yard has certainly paid off! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Cheers! ❤️💚🥂🎅
Loved your video of the Marquesas. Your edited photos and video of your voyages and adventures our a stunning visual of what Lin and Larry Pardey described in their books sailing the world in the 1970s. Sail on. Thank you.
Hey there! Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed this video! Cheers!
Hey there! Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed this video! Cheers!
@@SailingOneLife have your read any of their books? If not, I'm sure you'll find insights to voyaging and places of interest that have certainly changed over the past 5 decades. Lin is still around, living in New Zealand and still active sailing and on the internet. Thanks again for sharing your adventures with us.
@@user-tf7ny6qj9h yes! We have read a couple. Such legends! We met Lin at the Annapolis Boat Show and follow her on social media. ❤️
It is good to see the simple life⛵️⚓️
Indeed! 🌎💙
What beautiful places n love your adventures. Excellent editing
Thank you, Dennis! The Marquesas are some of the most visually stunning islands we have ever seen.
YEA!
Thanks, Scott!
What a great episode guys! Awesome hike to the waterfall! You are so very fortunate. I do not know if I could ever convince my wife to circumnavigate but perhaps we could rent a boat there one day to sail around. The atolls are nuts, but these interactions with locals and the off the beaten path adventures are spectacular. Also- once you get good with a stick shift, those are exactly the type of roads that it works best with, both for fun and control. Finally, Just ordered 3 more Epic water filters for Christmas trip to the DR with family. Forgot to use the discount code on this purchase, but did when I got my One Life bottle. Great quality!
Hey Thomas! When we first started this journey, crossing the Pacific was just a dream. I (Brooke), personally never thought I'd be up to the task. But little by little my love for sailing along with my sailing abilities grew. When Gary and I discussed crossing the Pacific last year, he told me if I didn't feel comfortable he would get a crew member and I could fly there....my response: Oh, hell no! If One Life is sailing across an ocean, I am too! So I guess what I'm saying is, your wife just may surprise you! Thank you so much for supporting our journey! We hope you love your bottles and we look forward to seeing some pics of you guys using them on your trip! If we don't chat before then, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Crossed the pacific but nervous to drive a standard transmission, Awsome stuff !! One life 🏁🏁🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hahaha! Never thought about that!
From the state Merry Christmas🎄 and New Year 🕛🍻♥️🤍💙
Hey George! Thank you! Merry, Merry 🎄 & Happy 2024 to you as well! Can't wait to see how the next year unfolds!
Epic adventure. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for coming along with us!
Awesome job with the video! Look forward to the next stop.
Thank you! Tuamotus coming your way soon!
Amazing footage, thx for sharing. Have fun guys
Thanks, Dane! Hope you are having a good weekend!
I have been following you for w while and really enjoy your channel. It looks like you have successfully developed the skills and determination to make cruising around the world work. I have been impressed,
But I should note that most of the under developed world still use manual transmission extensively. They actually have a lot more utility in certain conditions, such as the steep roads y'all just drove thru. This should be a skill both of you should develop. Rent that red car again if you can to practice. Maybe there are videos online to help. It may be very important to you one day somewhere in your travels.
But keep doing what you have been doing and stay safe!
Hey there! Happy to hear you are enjoying our channel. Yep, you are absolutely right. That's the reason we rented a manual in Florida before we left. Wanted to make sure we could drive a car anywhere....just a bit rusty on the skill after not using it in a few years!
Great location. Beautiful. Nice to be along and experience a sampling of the cruising life. You guys are enjoying much better weather conditions than wintertime in the Appalachian foothills. Keep that warmth and sunshine coming thru your lens. Cheers 🥂😊
Thank you, Trent! Hope you are doing great! We will be scheduling a zoom real soon, hope you can make it!
Beautiful country
One of the most visually stunning places we have ever been!
Great job beautiful senery y’all r great⛵️⚓️
Thanks, George!
Beautiful video, Thank you very much. Merry Christmas
Thanks, Brad! Merry Christmas to you as well! 🎄
Another good watch. Id love to go there & just hang out with the locals, looks like fun. Keep up the good work one life. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Thanks, Russ! Sending hugs! Getting ready to hike Cape Brett this morning!
@@SailingOneLife awesome, have fun. Better you than me, hahaha.
Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Hope you are having a good weekend, Andre!
Unreal drone stuff! The first people to discover and live in Hawaii were from marquesas and the stonework is found on Kauai and outer islands. (The flat-surface stone walls and round face figurines.). Looking at that jungle trek, reminded me there are no snakes at all or poisonous insects in French Polynesia (or Hawaii) except centipedes. So really kind to hike in like that.). Watching you refuel reminded me of when you got propane refilled in Bocas del Toros- 21 days? something like that? Aloha!
Hey Joe! Ah cool, that is so interesting! Their stonework is amazing. Ha, yes nice to be able to hike through the brush and not worry about a deadly spider bite. And yup, took us 3 weeks in Bocas for our propane.....they are the record holder so far hahaha.
Gary is quiet the chef. Did you guys ever think of making a One Life cookbook? I would love to see all the different food you guys make.
Gary is such a good baker! Anything that goes in the oven he is a wizard at! We've never thought about a cookbook!
what an amazing , stunning place . It is a pity that the local friendliness couldn't encircle the world .Refueling the boat / shopping and those long long walks would kill me . That's why I sit back and watch . Many thanks for sharing your life with us . Look forward to your next post ..
Thanks Bob! Can you imagine if the world was always so kind and generous? Oh, what a magical place it would be!
It would be a Magical Place . I was so wrapped up in your episode I forgot to WISH YOU BOTH A MERRY XMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR. 🌹🍸🍸🥂🥂🎄🎄🎄@@SailingOneLife
Wow Sailor great episode
Thanks, Wow Sailor! 💙🙌
Another great video! Looks such a amazing place to go visit, thanks again so much for these videos. X
The Marquesas are definitely one of the most beautiful places we have ever been! Thank you for watching!
Wow fantastic video! A bit of deja vu for me as I was in Nuku Hiva in May this year did that same journey for fuel and did a tour around the island by car but with a guide and a few other cruisers. We did sail to the north of the island then sailed on round to Daniel’s bay 👍. Just discovered your channel, loving it 👌
Hi Debbie! Ah so cool you were here as well! Where are you now? Glad you sailed to the north side, it looked absolutely stunning there!
I'm back home in the UK I'm afraid. I was crewing on a friends boat from Panama to Tahiti then we both delivered boat from Tahiti back to Ensenada, Mexico. Back home saving for my next trip 🙂 so will now be living vicariously through you guys@@SailingOneLife
Ah very cool that you were able to crew! How was the passage from Tahiti back to Mexico? A bit salty?? Thanks for coming along with us!
Always enjoy seeing your videos. What a great adventure you're on. Beautiful scenery, wow.
Thank you, Lois! We hope you are having a good weekend!
Sure am. Thanks. Nice mild weather here in Saskatoon
Happy holidays 🎄. Cheers
Happy Holidays, Tammy! 🎄🎅
Wow. So very beautiful. I would be so tempted to take 6 months off and just linger about. Thanks so much for the video!! Safe journey to your next port. ...and a Merry (South sea) Christmas
Thanks for coming along with us! Definitely hard to leave a place like this! Merry Christmas to you as well!
I laughed so much about the manuel transmission. I take it for granted that everyone knows how to use one. Take Care following and by the way I'll be in the Philippines around 22nd of Feb. Merry Christmas .
Haha! Gary actually did a great job driving and only stalled a few times. 🤣 Enjoy your time in the Philippines! Maybe we will cross paths in another year or so!
@@SailingOneLife you made it back to the boat safe so all good 😊 I'll be living in the Philippines so hopefully we can meet up when you get there.
So cool - well done guys - talented bread maker as well - no diving yet ?
Lots of diving coming up real soon! The water in the Marquesas was a bit green and cloudy not great viz.
Manual transmission... anti theft device for yo young folks 😂
🤣 no doubt
I definitely need to find an off grid man!
being a sailor is a shit ton of work, sometimes it's fixing the boat in paradise. Trust me I'd trade my professional engineer life for yours. I miss going out to sea. I am a former sailor that had to go adult for awhile.
We are not looking forward to the time when we have to adult again. Hope you can get back out here one day!
Wow! The view and your surroundings just keeps getting better and better! Do you find a lot of sediment in your Baja filter when you put your diesel through there?
Hey guys! It depends where we are. In the Eastern Caribbean it was never really a problem but in Central America it was a pretty big issue. We haven't noticed much so far here in the South Pacific.
pizza dough is easy to make and it is kind of bread … fermentation takes hours when patience needed😅
Haha yeah the pizza dough works!
Just keeps getting better and better. Curious, what was the price of diesel?
Thank you! The cost was around $6 USD/gallon
Cheers new friends hope you are well. 🫶
Cheers! All good on One Life! Hope things are good for you as well! 💙
Yeah, falling rocks. But somehow "acces interdit" didn't make it in translation 🙂 Nice one!
Oops! 🤷 Ignorance is bliss! 🤣
Everyone should learn how to drive a manual transmission….a rite of passage.
Agreed.
Great content .. really enjoy watching your journey and discoveries ♥️
Just on another completely unrelated note: have you had your voice box checked? I worry for your sound ? It seems to rattle ? Could be the recording but thyroid issues my sister had you sound a little like she did .. anyway could be just the recording .. 🫶💕🫶💕🫶💕
Happy to hear you are enjoying our channel!
Appreciate your concern about my voice and yes, it's already been checked. Seems each voice is one of a kind. 💙
They built things the same way because they were the same people.
👍🧿
Thank you! 💙
👍
Thank you!
❤❤👍👍
Merry Christmas!! 💙💙
How did the boat do with the repairs you did in Mexico?
So far so good! 🙌
15:02 - You DID NOT ask Brooke where her jugs were?!?! Bad Gary, bad Gary.
🤷🤣
how many flies did you eat at dinner?
🤣 nice observation
Was the bread good?
Delicious! 😋
❤️💘💝😃😃😃
Thanks for the love, Gibb! 💙💙
why not just drive the boat to the gas station and use the dock pump to fuel up?
Hey Ben, good question. The concrete dock by the gas station is pretty gnarly with the swell and tide. It's also reserved for the big commercial boats and we believe you have to arrange an appointment time to tie up. Mainly though, we didn't want our boat getting smashed around on the concrete dock.
What's the Temp. there ?...
Mid 80's
I can't drive automatic, they're ridiculous, no control of the vehicle in hills, so dangerous. No gearbox braking and always on your brakes. Give me my manual any time
👍
Quit complaining about a couple hours with fuel, groceries etc.
Y'ALL are living many people's dreams,!!
Stop whining in paradise.
Not complaining just showing real life out here
