Thanks for your love and support Haley! Means so much to us 🥰🥰🥰🥰 We're loving Queensland!! P.s. Have we crossed paths yet? If you see us be sure to say hello! Would be nice to meet you 😃
@@KristinasTravels we would love to catch up. We are in Gladstone - happy to loan you a 4WD if you need to go exploring! I’ll send you a private message on Insta😉
Barney is a legend and I’m so glad you are learning from good racing sailors. You’ll fast track your knowledge that way. The speed dial and FaceTime is a super cool tool too. Do it often and don’t be shy because sailors are just enthusiasts who love to share and help. They take payment in ego stroking and beer.
We try to lay it all out on the table for you guys! Of course.. we would prefer to be out on the deck in bikinis drinking a pina colada... haha! But.. that's just not reality.. for now anways!! 😂 Thanks for your support Katie ❤️ Really appreciate it!

John explained the right of way rules perfectly. Better to follow the procedure than try to 'be nice'. It's one thing with your pram at the market, and a totally different one on the sea.
John is the most non trained skilled person I have ever seen. I am learning so much from him so I can grow my knowledge to buy my own Tucana. Way to John.
You guys doing great. Rechargable drill and grinder (as mentioned before) are good simple tools for quick fixes such as putting a couple of screws through the spinnaker pole ends.
Cheers for the support Rick!! It's going to be epic. I've always wanted to do it, but have never had the chance because of my job/employment/career etc!
Hey guys, always great to see another video of your travels up the east coast of Aus. Glad that your steering cables have been renewed & all went well with your night departure from your berth at Boatworks. I am not sure but I think that Boatworks is owned by Tony Longhurst, a former V8 Supercar driver. Kristina your hair looks ace & your video presentation is brilliant. Wow, John certainly damaged his fingers & glad that it was not worse & yes, the sight of a lot of blood usually means that the damage is worse than it looks, John is certainly one brave man hey. The weather you show looks good for sailing & its always good to try & wait for best weather if possible. I watch a couple of other boating adventures & they always wait for best weather to sail if possible. Sometimes of course thats not possible. I think that for first time sailors you are doing well & who would have thought that you would depart Boatworks in the dark & successfully negotiate all to now be anchored in Bribe Island. Have been there by land when my wife & I toured Aus with caravan & toy poodle. Keep doing what you are & great content. I just love watching your videos & they are a highlight of my morning, Take care & God bless you both, Glen Hopkins
Nice video! As an American, I am enjoying learning a little bit of Australia’s geography at the same time, as I find myself consulting Google maps! Hopefully, by now, John got the stitches out of his fingers.
Hello, been so nice to follow your journey in the Australian archipelago from up here in Finland where we're currently enjoying a white winter and where the sea mostly along the costa is frozen. I’ve been boating in mainly the Finnish archipelago most of my life but also in the Adriatic Sea . One thing that struck my mind is that you seem to have no oars or even a paddel in the tender . Would be a bit problematic if the engine dies !
@@vinceperillo6802 hey Vince, nice, what was his job at Boeing? I’ve flown the B737 and B777, I was lucky enough to do my training on the B737 with Boeing in Miami a few years ago, and use to fly the B777 between Australia and LA, which was great, loved spending time in the states. 👍🏻
John he work for Boeing for almost 40 years. He was a Senior Design Engineer in the drive train division in Pennsylvania. I had a wonderful childhood because of that company and it is so nice to hear someone of your experience and expertise to talk so highly of the Jets. Safe travels my man!
You can teach a competent person the basic's of sailing a boat in a day. You can spend the rest of your life learning proper seamanship. Good Luck. Thanks for the video. Sail on! : )
Colregs dictate in the event of a collision both Skippers are at fault if underway.Both Skippers shall keep a proper watch while the vessel is underway and both Skippers shall make any provisions necessary to avoid collision.A bit different when coming in to dock in which case it’s how hard your willing to hit the dock to stop your vessel,lol,it’s a running joke with yachties,slow and steady wins the race.safe sailing guys.
Great Tips SV Thora 👌🏻 it’s not always easy is it, under motor under sail, point of sail, overtaking, leeward/upwind, etc etc. I guess the bottom line is don’t crash and you can’t go wrong hey 😜
While its likely true that in a collision both vessels can be considered at fault, it is still also the responsibility of the Give Way vessel to make "early and substantial action" so as to signal that they see the Stand On vessel and intend to give way. Its not well defined what "early" is, and Kristina thought they were too close but it looked to me like it was plenty of room - maybe its the camera or maybe its my years sailing in crowded bays where boats routinely pass close enough to exchange supplies. I suppose out in uncrowded ocean waters, why wait so long to signal that you see the Stand On vessel and intend to alter course? John looking up the rules in real time was pretty funny :)
@@davefeinglass9118 hey Dave, I remember reading that too. We were fairly close to a marina so there was some traffic about. Given the slow speed, light winds and available sea room I was comfortable getting close on this occasion, I could see the skipper standing at the helm and could see him looking at us, I think he was hoping he’d be able to pass behind without changing course and left it to the last minute to change course. It did feel like a game of chicken for a moment there, Kristina was convinced we were suppose to give way, but mostly because we are new to sailing so we should just keep out of everyone’s way, (which I agree to to a point 😂). I noticed a lot of club sailors are comfortable getting fairly close, where as cruisers along the coast tend to think 1nm is too close. Guess it depends on the situation. Anyway we gave each other a smile and a wave as we passed so I’m pretty sure the other skipper was aware he was the give way vessel otherwise I’m sure it would have been expletives and maybe the bird haha.
Oh this is amazing to hear Michael! So glad we were able to connect. Glad you’re enjoying our journey - there’s still so much to see and explore - so thanks for being here with us for the ride 🙌🙌🙂✨

Would love to sail Australia one day when I retire. You guys look great. Keep learning and going, and you will have great stories to tell your kids and grandkids. Just two points if I may: 1. When at sea the one on your right has the right of the way, unless they are sailing under motor, and you are sailing under sail only, or unless the other vessel has limited maneuvering capability. AIS and Radio are instrumental in such cases, since both captains are responsible for safe navigation. 2. We wash anchor and chain when we leave an anchorage, that is when we pull the anchor up, in order to avoid carrying along seaweed and other living organisms, or even sand, that can contaminate the next anchorage. If you are using sea water, then I guess you don’t care doing it every time you drop or pull up anchor, but not even super yachts do that. However, if you are doing it with fresh water, I would recommend you save the water when you drop the anchor. Washing the anchor and rode only when you drop it, is actually helping diffuse all the present contaminants over a wider area. Keep your spirits up and keep going. Cheers!
Malc uk 🇬🇧 here sorry been away from home for a bit- on catch up great vid both as always - tell you use to do this vid bit for a living and John u can tell your a pilot as looks good on the computer nav work bit too stay safe God speed .
Years ago, I heaved hard on a large spanner, which broke, and split my knuckles open on sheet metal. I don't buy cheap tools anymore. And in the US for the past five years or so, "mechanic's gloves" have become quite common, extra padding on the back to prevent those damages. No one laughs at them anymore.
Pink hair, oh God no! I am enjoying you videos from the desert of Arizona USA. I enjoy seeing how the other half does it way down south of here. Thank you and be safe!
Good day Mates, so glad to see you again. I always look forward to your videos, I enjoyed watching this one. I’m so glad you made it into Queensland without a hitch. I have a question for John. As a pilot how many aircraft have you flown and which one is your favorite?
Hey Brian, thanks for supporting the channel, It means a lot and it’s great to hear people are getting something out of following our adventure. Thanks for your interest about my flying career, Kristina’s keen to include something about this in a future video, but in a nutshell the smallest thing I’ve flown is a paraglider and sailplane and the largest a Boeing 777, before taking time off I was operating the B737, I like think with a little more skill than Tucana 😂 In total I think I have about 7000 hours over 15 types. Thanks again for the question 🙂
@@jptilley10 So what's your favorite? I will finish ground school soon (online) and hope to learn on a PA-38 Tomahawk. I just love that T-tail. Thanks for responding to my question John. Have a great day.
@@BrianRhodes9763 awesome Brian, nice work! I never flew the tomahawk but a lot of my mates did their ab initio training on them, great plane. My favorite single pilot aircraft was probably the C441 Cessna Conquest, the performance and ease of flying was like nothing else. We’d regularly fly it at around 30,000ft and it’d do 290kts and burn around 300lb/hr. Best multi crew aircraft would have to be the b777, such a solid well designed machine. Best of luck with your flying 🚀
@@jptilley10 It seems like a lot of your flying knowledge will be transferrable to sailing, like problem solving, navigation, prioritizing, etc. Seems like a very similar skill set, even down to commonalities in fluid dynamics of wings and sails.
Great vid surprised Palsachook let you into QLD she wont even let her own people back home they are cvamped at towns just south of the border some for months
Hey great episode and hope John's fingers recover quickly. Ref the other sailing vessel, if you can see their port side then it is your responsibility to give way and pass astern so go behind them, sorry but you were wrong and the catamaran was forgiving. If you'd done that in the Solent UK the VHF would be alive damning you lol
That would apply if we were motoring. We were both under sail though... so, in this case the vessel on the port tack has to give way.. (we were on a starboard tack). John’s finger is doing well 😀😀 Thanks for the support ❤️🥰
@@KristinasTravels Ooops may be a bit rusty on rules of the road as not been on the water for way too long, thanks Covid, but do love your vlog and the new adventure you've decided to take. Glad to hear fingers fine, I am definitely not commenting further ! 🤐😂 safe passage and live the life !
🙌 I can imagine! Probs just should have paid and $150. 😳 But we were haemorrhaging money on the steering cables and my hair 😝 How did I go though.. did I do an ok job?
@@KristinasTravels Looks great, if you stay under 6 knots it shouldn't blow off lol The hair was worth it too and the steering would probably come in handy...
Of two yachtsunder sail, the one with sails at port has right of way. If both have sails at port the one highest at the wind has right of way. That also goes when sails of both are at starboard. This is the rule in competition sailing.
Okay, if your sails are on Port then the wind is coming over the starboard side of the boat - and you're on the starboard tack, so "Port Gives Way to Starboard" correct. If you're highest on the wind, by which I assume you mean pointing higher towards the wind then if you're in a collision situation you must be to leeward of the boat you're converging on (otherwise you'd be diverging courses) so this is correct as "Windward boat gives way" but it's an odd way of saying it and potentially confusing. Overtaking vessel also has to keep clear.
Liked your video thank you. If you didn't mention you had the same clothes on the following day chances are no one would have noticed but now 27,069 people know :)
Hey Greg! This video was filmed at the end of July/August as we were making our way up the coast from Melbourne. I never really wanted to reveal we were in Airlie but because we did that interview with A Current Affair, the cat was out of the bag! So.. if you just ignore that episode.. hopefully the story will flow nicely ☺️
@3:29 is that your pet name for John? I'm interested in how Johns pilot skills translate to skippering. Also, would be nice to hear how he got into it, etc.
Haha, no he’s actually eating a custard tart! Do you have them where you’re from?! They’re delicious! In some upcoming episodes we’ll make sure we answer this question for you. We’ll tell you how we met, where we’re from, how we got into it etc ☺️
Great stuff guys! I have huge issues tagging your channel name as there are two,, Because I entered John in or Beauty contest 😂, Sailing and unnamed vessel, king Neptune would be Pi$$ed, as for Col Regs, you did had right of way, but he was faster, there is no shame in using your Radio, and ask would he like to cross your bow and you take his Stern.. it’s polite and Sensible.. never feel embarrassed, a sailor who stops making mistakes is a sailor without a boat.. very cool guys!
Thanks for the vote Trev 😂, how’s the nostril shot! 😆. We did it the old fashion way, a grin and a wave.. it looks close, but we were converging for a good 20 minutes. Good idea about the radio, it’s easy to forget it’s there sometimes!
Your parents would be very proud of you guys…. Great work PS: you can wear the same clothes …. Who cares - change when the other person smells so you can comment…. “Well it’s not me !!” Cheers
I howled when he said "I'm looking up the rules". Technology. You can't beat it!
Bahahaha 🤣🤣

Keep your spirits up and keep going. Cheers!
you guys are mad i think, kudos to you both for giving it a go.
Haha, you’re not the first person to say that 😂😂 We think we’re mad too! 😜😆🙋♀️
Well done guys excellent visual and audio 👏👏👏
Your video's are amazing
Greetings from your fatherland Greece. I enjoy watching your videos. I am a boater too, but with a motor yacht
Go pink !!! But maybe just the ends 👍
Malc uk 🇬🇧 here sorry been away from home for a bit- on catch up great vid both as always - tell you use to do this vid bit for a living and John u can tell your a pilot as looks good on the computer nav work bit too stay safe God speed .
Years ago, I heaved hard on a large spanner, which broke, and split my knuckles open on sheet metal. I don't buy cheap tools anymore. And in the US for the past five years or so, "mechanic's gloves" have become quite common, extra padding on the back to prevent those damages. No one laughs at them anymore.
Nice video 😃
Hope to see you in Thailand one day. :) Please take care, no Gambling, that is, When in Doubt, that means "NO!"
Oh hi there Onnicha! It's def on the cards 😃😃 Hope to see you there one day too 😊
Paul!!! How about getting them on the radio and asking the question!!!! Communicate!!!!!
Pink would be a bit different - personally think our hair looks great as it is :-)!
Should always cross behind the other vessel even if you are in the right.
Pink hair, oh God no! I am enjoying you videos from the desert of Arizona USA. I enjoy seeing how the other half does it way down south of here. Thank you and be safe!
Nice video
Good day Mates, so glad to see you again. I always look forward to your videos, I enjoyed watching this one. I’m so glad you made it into Queensland without a hitch. I have a question for John. As a pilot how many aircraft have you flown and which one is your favorite?
Hey Brian, thanks for supporting the channel, It means a lot and it’s great to hear people are getting something out of following our adventure.
Thanks for your interest about my flying career, Kristina’s keen to include something about this in a future video, but in a nutshell the smallest thing I’ve flown is a paraglider and sailplane and the largest a Boeing 777, before taking time off I was operating the B737, I like think with a little more skill than Tucana 😂 In total I think I have about 7000 hours over 15 types.
Thanks again for the question 🙂
@@jptilley10 So what's your favorite? I will finish ground school soon (online) and hope to learn on a PA-38 Tomahawk. I just love that T-tail. Thanks for responding to my question John. Have a great day.
@@BrianRhodes9763 awesome Brian, nice work! I never flew the tomahawk but a lot of my mates did their ab initio training on them, great plane.
My favorite single pilot aircraft was probably the C441 Cessna Conquest, the performance and ease of flying was like nothing else. We’d regularly fly it at around 30,000ft and it’d do 290kts and burn around 300lb/hr. Best multi crew aircraft would have to be the b777, such a solid well designed machine.
Best of luck with your flying 🚀
@@jptilley10 thanks Mate
@@jptilley10 It seems like a lot of your flying knowledge will be transferrable to sailing, like problem solving, navigation, prioritizing, etc. Seems like a very similar skill set, even down to commonalities in fluid dynamics of wings and sails.
The '1' is higher than the '5' & '3'!!!!!
Great vid surprised Palsachook let you into QLD she wont even let her own people back home they are cvamped at towns just south of the border some for months
Hey great episode and hope John's fingers recover quickly. Ref the other sailing vessel, if you can see their port side then it is your responsibility to give way and pass astern so go behind them, sorry but you were wrong and the catamaran was forgiving. If you'd done that in the Solent UK the VHF would be alive damning you lol
That would apply if we were motoring. We were both under sail though... so, in this case the vessel on the port tack has to give way.. (we were on a starboard tack). John’s finger is doing well 😀😀 Thanks for the support ❤️🥰
@@KristinasTravels Ooops may be a bit rusty on rules of the road as not been on the water for way too long, thanks Covid, but do love your vlog and the new adventure you've decided to take. Glad to hear fingers fine, I am definitely not commenting further ! 🤐😂 safe passage and live the life !
@@scoobydo6454 ohhh no! Keep your comments coming!! We really appreciate them and appreciate you being here 🙌😄😄❤️ Hope to see you next week! 🙌⛵️
As a signwriter, it always makes me laugh watching other people putting signage on. Looks good though
🙌 I can imagine!
Probs just should have paid and $150. 😳
But we were haemorrhaging money on the steering cables and my hair 😝
How did I go though.. did I do an ok job?
@@KristinasTravels Looks great, if you stay under 6 knots it shouldn't blow off lol The hair was worth it too and the steering would probably come in handy...
Naww love your hair looks so Beautiful 😍💘
Thank you so much 😀
great video
Of two yachtsunder sail, the one with sails at port has right of way. If both have sails at port the one highest at the wind has right of way. That also goes when sails of both are at starboard. This is the rule in competition sailing.
Okay, if your sails are on Port then the wind is coming over the starboard side of the boat - and you're on the starboard tack, so "Port Gives Way to Starboard" correct. If you're highest on the wind, by which I assume you mean pointing higher towards the wind then if you're in a collision situation you must be to leeward of the boat you're converging on (otherwise you'd be diverging courses) so this is correct as "Windward boat gives way" but it's an odd way of saying it and potentially confusing. Overtaking vessel also has to keep clear.
70 bucks a night with all those extras nice price
I'll subscribe, I like watching rookies.🤓
Hi, did you mention where you got the stickers ?
Ever hear of a RADIO? Used to communicate with other vessels?
Nice video. Why do you have to have sacurity paperwork to move between states? Is not Australia 1 country?
Liked your video thank you. If you didn't mention you had the same clothes on the following day chances are no one would have noticed but now 27,069 people know :)
Funniest thing I've heard for some time. "Sorry mate, just hang on a sec while I am looking up the rules...." Sounds entirely reasonable to me.
😂😂😂😂
Don't try to be a volunteer fire person if you have that problem. You wouldn't believe what I've seen !
I don’t understand how you were in Airlie Beach ages ago now your just crossing the border to QLD
Hey Greg! This video was filmed at the end of July/August as we were making our way up the coast from Melbourne.
I never really wanted to reveal we were in Airlie but because we did that interview with A Current Affair, the cat was out of the bag! So.. if you just ignore that episode.. hopefully the story will flow nicely ☺️
@@KristinasTravels last time I looked u were filming from cairns
Ouch, fingers will heal, thanks for sharing. Can i please ask what drone do you use. I have drowned two so fa from the boat. cheers
Hey Paul! Thanks for watching ❤️❤️ We have a DJI Mavic S2
@3:29 is that your pet name for John?
I'm interested in how Johns pilot skills translate to skippering. Also, would be nice to hear how he got into it, etc.
Haha, no he’s actually eating a custard tart! Do you have them where you’re from?! They’re delicious!
In some upcoming episodes we’ll make sure we answer this question for you. We’ll tell you how we met, where we’re from, how we got into it etc ☺️
Although I kind of look like a custard tart, I’m pretty pasty! 😂
Great stuff guys! I have huge issues tagging your channel name as there are two,, Because I entered John in or Beauty contest 😂,
Sailing and unnamed vessel, king Neptune would be Pi$$ed, as for Col Regs, you did had right of way, but he was faster, there is no shame in using your Radio, and ask would he like to cross your bow and you take his Stern.. it’s polite and Sensible..
never feel embarrassed, a sailor who stops making mistakes is a sailor without a boat..
very cool guys!
Thanks for the vote Trev 😂, how’s the nostril shot! 😆.
We did it the old fashion way, a grin and a wave.. it looks close, but we were converging for a good 20 minutes. Good idea about the radio, it’s easy to forget it’s there sometimes!
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the support Stephen! 🥰🙌😃
Hi guys found you on YTSC
Please get yourselves a set of Bluetooth headphones to make communicating so much easier and safer!!
Your parents would be very proud of you guys…. Great work PS: you can wear the same clothes …. Who cares - change when the other person smells so you can comment…. “Well it’s not me !!”
Cheers
No pink. Unless you are 12. 😁
well... sometimes I do act like I’m 12 😏🤣🤔 hahaha
Wing on wing might be an American expression ?? Usually called Goose winged.
he has right of way but whatever ...lol
No he doesn't - they're on different tacks, port gives way to starboard.
5:30 3 is a little low
No people, "shalom" is the secret password, but your going to need the blood too.
Go get the pink hair. Would be so cool
Cheers Guy for being in my corner!! John will find it harder to kick me off the boat with pink hair if I have some supporters hahaha!
Did I hear you correctly you paid $150 for your boat name and numbers? If that's the case, you been over charged
We actually paid $200 for the stickers. They wanted another $150 to stick them on to the boat!!! 😳😳😳😳 AUSTRALIA!!!!
Kristina, you are beautiful just the way you are ... please no pink.
Haha! John says if I colour it pink I’m not allowed on Tucana.... it’s still tempting. 🤣
@@KristinasTravels Just in case, perhaps I should buy a boat. Still, Pink?
