In 2015 got rid of my house that I rehabbed after 10 years living in it, with everything in it plus 2 vehicle and got 1 newer explorer and packed it up and traveled for 4/5 years straight and lived in Vegas for 9 months, San Diego for a month. And people thought that was crazy. When had a house in those years NEVER went anywhere. I'd rather have a vehicle vs house or apartment.
Love this story! It's so good to be able to pick up your home and move whenever you want, isn't it?
Happy to hear this. Inspirational
The under water footage never disappoints. Love the turtle and the rays. Awesome.
Thank you! The dive footage is always our favorite to film and edit! Happy to hear you enjoy it too!
Sea turtles, Hinano, McNuggets, Bri, Karin, Sierra and a sweaty beardless Gary…what more could we ask for! Thanks for taking us along with you. Hugs to you both, 🤗
Thanks, Obie & Laurie!! Good to know you noticed a sweaty bearded Gary! We hope you both had a good weekend! Sending big hugs!! :) 💙
11:21 Wow, you had to go all the way to Tahiti to find a McDonalds where the Ice Cream Machine was working!
Haha! Right?!
Mac Donald's is rubbish😮... Otherwise great channel 😁
Beautiful video Brooke and Gary. Good to see you all together missing Calico Skies.. I love Brian’s laugh!
Thank you! We miss Gracie and Bill so much. We are hopeful for a massive reunion later this year!
Thank you for producing and sharing the video. I am a retired Navy engineer and I've been lots of places around the world but, for most people, the only way you see the places you guys have seen is on a private sailboat. What an adventure ! Stay safe, happy sailing and take care of your fellow crew member. The little things matter when a day is not going so great but from what I just watched, it's pretty darn good !
The little things matter ~ Great advice! Thank you!
Hey guys!
That was a quick video turnaround. I certainly appreciate it. As usual, the footage was phenomenal! I especially like the water views from the climb. But the waterfalls and vegetation were also great!!
Enjoy and be safe!!!
Hey Tom, thanks for noticing that! We are hoping to not have such a lag between videos in the coming months.
The beard timeline, determine days/weeks via Gary's beard length.
Haha this whole video was filmed in a time period of probably 12ish days. I wish I could do a timelapse of his beard growth!
Wonderful underwater photography. I appreciate you naming the various species.
Thank you! Good to know you appreciate that!
We did this on 40th anniversey, great memories
That's awesome! So glad you had a great time!
Good Morning SV One Life!!
Hey Scott! Thanks for spending your morning with us!
We do want to sell everything and sail. Currently we boat, but not sail. Got a taste last summer sailing the V.I. with Capt Mark and the Pampero. Loved it.
Ah yes, sailing in the VI's will get ya! Hope you can get out here soon!
I love stingrays. I was a marine biologist for a few years and spent a lot of time diving with Pacific and the smaller Atlantic Rays. I’ve been bitten on the chest on a dive once and stabbed on the calf once surfing in Galveston. In respect of the late great Steve Irwin, we all should be cognizant.
Love you guys ❤
Hey Phillip! Oh, so cool that you were a marine biologist! We imagine you have seen some incredible stuff underwater. Thanks for the love! 💙
Thanks for sharing Tahiti. Spent one day in Papeete on my way through after 6 weeks in the outer islands and never got to see much of the big island. Your vid filled in the gaps for me. It is really so beautiful there. Enjoying your journey.
Hey Bob! Oh cool, glad you could come along with us around Tahiti! Papeete is a 'get in and get out' kinda place but Tahiti in general is quite beautiful!
@@SailingOneLife "And the downhill run to Papeete" - CS&N Southern Cross :) You're there!
Holy Cow! That grocery haul was a workout!
💪💪We really appreciate all your comments!
17:28 Y'all are such a good pair. You are both so competent.
Thank you, very much!
Loved the video. Can't imagine grocery shopping like that. You hope you didn't forget something lol.
LOL, oh trust me there is always something I forget!
Loved the dives! But we loved that you went 3 miles in high seas fir McDonald's!!! That's what we would have done! Cheers!
😂😂 true Americans.
Another fabulous video. Enjoy your time and adventure. Please remain safe.
Thank you, Mark! We appreciate the good vibes! 💙
Brooke, stunningly accurate statement at the end. I have often said to people that we are all Homo sapiens and you do not have to love one another but we should respect one another. Jim Rodgers
Absolutely! 💛
G'day Brooke and Gary!! Thanks for another awesome episode guy's!! That tree leaking sap is a common Gum tree, i love how it leaks it sap out!! Hope you both are doing well and keeping safe in your van travels! 😊
Ah yes, definitely looks like a gum tree! We have never seen those before! Cheers, mate!
@@SailingOneLife yes we have them everywhere here in Australia 🇦🇺 especially in the outback.
an exciting trip
Thanks for coming along with us!
Brooke and Gary thanks again for a terrific video. Always look forward to seeing your adventures. Safe travels.
Hey Dennis! You are quite welcome :) We appreciate you coming along with us on these adventures! Sea ya next time!
Beautiful! Can’t wait to get to go! Thanks for sharing! Hope you guys are doing well! 😊❤
Hope to see you guys out here soon! 💙💙
Thanks for labeling the fish, very nice and interesting.
You are welcome :) Good to know you like that!
Nice video! Our time on Moorea was spent almost entirely exploring on land. Your shots in the crystal clear water showing the abundance of sealife were fantastic. Also enjoyed the video of the waterfalls on Tahiti.
Hey Steve! Glad you got to see a part of Moorea you didn't get to see while you are here. Hope you had a good weekend!
Hello, I'm a new subscriber who got me hooked on your videos since the whole repair of "one lifee" and his dingy too, and the whole crossing of the Pacific, all the adventures that happen seemed amazing to me. And they encourage me to put the sails on my boat here in the delta of Argentina. From there I greet you cordially.
Hey Leonardo! So cool you are coming along with us on this journey all the way from Argentina! Thanks for cheering us on out here. We hope you can set sail real soon!
Great footage, good balance of fun and reality of boat life ... and lots f cool experiences. Well done and enjoyed this one a lot.
Thanks, Matt! Just wondering if this video passed all your checks? We almost thought we had a slippage. 😂😂
On my bucket list to visit. 🎋
Just watched Colin sail into Aukland-his home!
Very emotional.
Safe sailing.
We just watch his video as well! What a legend, him and his crew!!
Such amazing beautiful so very inspiring woman ❤
Aw, thanks Brandon!💙
Loved the video guys. How amazingly beautiful. ❤❤Yolo.
Hey Jorge! YOLO all the way!! Hope you had a good weekend!
I sailed around the world in the 90's, in a 35ft sloop, and this brings back a lot of memories. Thank you.
Ah cool! Happy we could bring back some memories!
Just put everything into a boat launching in a couple weeks, first time sailor and I can't wait
So cool! Congratulations! Enjoy the ride!
You took the surf shark thing to another level! Thanks for sharing!
🙌 If only we could have done the audio underwater!
@@SailingOneLife it would be a immersive experience to record even the air bubbles on the hydrophone, more work for the edition team! ua-cam.com/video/XPAMje-sA68/v-deo.htmlsi=seZJUDpVHTKqcKKL
Great Adventures!
Thanks for coming along!
Tree looks like a Eucalyptus. Gum tree, found all over Australia. There are over 100 types, so your guess. Really enjoying the travels with you guys.
Interesting, do you think it had a disease with the oozing sap or do they all look like that?
They can look completely different. Google Eucalyptus Tree and have a look, I’m sure they will be there. If the tree is attacked by pests it can bleed and some actually look red. Birds ,Grubs as in lava of moths. On our farm in Auzz we had Yellow Box and Red Gum@@SailingOneLife
You're really living the dream aren't you? I am very jealous!
Life is good :) Thank you!
Wow Sailor, or sold I say Sailors for you all had a great time thanks for sharing the dives with us.
I would love to meet up with you one day
Hey there! We hope to cross paths with you one day out here!
@@SailingOneLife I am still in the process of trying to set up a gofundme project so that I can buy a boat .
Fair sailing,
Praise the Dive Jesus and his bountiful turtles! What amazing memories you’ve made, for all of us
The Dive Jesus shall provide! 💙💙
da turtles!! so CUTE! isn't it nice when mother nature makes sure she cleans your groceries on the ride back to the boat. why isn't EVERYONE doing this lifestyle? lol
Sorry Gary let you down in this video....Check back next time! 😘😂
Excellent video! Really enjoyed it, thank you 🙏
Thank you! Hope you had a good weekend!
Now, this is how life is meant to be lived, instead of being stuck in a 9 to 5 cubicle, why not navigate the world in a sailboat? Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Absolutely! Thanks for coming along with us!
I love seeing all the underwater life, but I think sea turtles would be a favorite to swim with, just something about them seems loveable... big old gentle creatures.
I agree! They are just so cool!
I'm glad that I found you both again. It's been a while. I very much like you both for your really down-to-earth and easy attitude. Much happy sailing and touring and many happy days.
Hey Gene! Ah thanks! We are glad you found us again too! 💙🌎
Love the diving video! Hoping someday to be able to pull the plug, get a boat and cruise the world.
Donate for a Dream
Hope we see you out here one day!
After the week I just had at work I just might follow your advice. At this point I’d be happy with a covered canoe with bed sheets for sails.
Hey John! Bummer to hear you had a tough week. Hope the next one is better for you!
We had a good time! Thanks for coming with us on this adventure!! Sounds like we should have learned how to drive in San Fran! 😂
Thanks for sharing! XO Darcee
Hi Darcee! Thanks for coming along with us! 💙
Great vid..you all looked happy. For Gary..1st thing you learn in San Francisco is using gas, clutch, & ER brake in unison driving the hills 😂🎉. Good job bro.
Sounds like we should have learned to drive in San Fran! 😂😂 Thanks for coming along with us!
Provisioning for three months is like shopping with two teenagers for a week. 😂
Haha! I can't imagine provisioning for teenagers! Oooof.
I like the vast world comment. I've been to more than 70 countries around the world. When someone ask me where I'm from, I reply planet earth! Good stuff, thank you two!
70 countries?! Wow how fun! We hope to have visited that many one day!
I have watched you guys for a while now. It wasn't until a few months ago that I realized you were friends with my other favorite sailing channel. It is fun when I get to see a crossover. Like you guys all live in the same universe. Glad to see Seirra got some McDonalds.
Ah cool! Haha yup, we are all out here together!
This is one of my favorate videos you all have done!!! We loved it. Thank you!!!
Ah, so good to hear! Thank you!
Great episode and definitely a bucket list place for me too. We shall see if sailing there happens.
Hey Thomas! Thanks! You'll make it to French Polynesia one day :)
Looks absolutely amazing. Well needed vitamin fix while I patiently wait for spring to arrive here in Norway and the ice to break up🙈
Sailing in Norway! Wow! Good on you!
@@SailingOneLife very nice when the water isn’t frozen😅 You should plan to sail by - you are heading in the right direction😅
Great video I'm already sailing n about to circumnavigate around Vancouver Island then off to Mexico n beyond on my 51 foot Formosa. My 2 cats n me. Tyvm Cheers n fair winds
Ah so cool! Maybe we will cross paths with you out here one day! Cheers!
@@SailingOneLife hope so
Honestly wouldn’t mind a Gary lesson in terms of engine maintenance, as i consider sailing into freedom, you and SV Delos make your engine maintenance seem so easy!
Thanks, John! We will try to incorporate this in a future episode. Any specific items you are interested in knowing more about?
I think you two must have been cinematographers in another life, the under water footage was awesome. All by the way the wife guessed $1500., she figured five hundred per basket, close. Y'all take care.
Hey Jack! Thank you! Happy to hear you are enjoying our underwater footage! It's our favorite to film and edit! Tell you wife nice guess!
The tree looked like Woodpeckers had been on it. It might be something else doing it there, but in the states when a tree is sick, everything else attacks it. There was one that had the woodpecker holes all over the trunk and we noticed a funny “sound” coming from it, when we cut it down, it was nearly hollow and it was also full of “Ants” and Carpenter Ants which were making the buzzing noises. The Woodpecker’s were after the Bugs inside the tree.
Very interesting! I hadn't thought about that. I bet you are right!
Wow, look at that. I was just thinking of you guys this morning & here you are👍. As usual, good footage with a good watch. Always real & always interesting. Yip, real interesting haha, I Hope all is well with you all & NZ is treating you well. Keep up the good work. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Hey Russ! Thank you! We just got back to One Life today and we will be starting to make miles north real soon. Will keep you posted as we get closer!
Another great video! Keep up the good work you guys!
Thank you! 💙🌎
10:19 Surprised to see you all running like that in those seas with no PFDs. You have shown such good judgement before.
Good catch! We don't typically wear them inside the cockpit when near shore unless the conditions are sporty.
Just love you guys and your channel!
Ah, thanks Scott! 💙💙
Beautiful video. ❤❤
Thanks, Bob! 💙
Awesome video guys thank you so much. We look forward to seeing your show every chance we get
Ah thank you! We look forward to sharing our journey with you!
That last waterfall was spectacular. The lush greenery and wildlife cant be replicated almost any other place
Agreed! It's so beautiful!
You have me craving a Micky Ds filet-o-fish now. Unfortunately I have not found a store that sells them in Mexico.
Ah yeah tough luck finding MCD's in Mexico....although we did find one in Paradise Village Marina Mall in Nuevo Vallarta!
Nice video, guys! Well done.
Thank you! 💙
Can't believe how crowded it is there. SOOO glad I sailed across the Pacific a couple decades ago.
Yes bet it was much different then
another great episode . Very happy to see you meet up with Delos & Parley . I have been watching these 2 crews for a while now and enjoy all 3 boats .
I look at your underwater footage and will say in most cases , it is better than the multi million dollar shows .
Look forward to your next escapade , safe sailing .
Thanks, Bob! We really enjoy filming the underwater stuff, so good to hear you are enjoying it as well! Delos and Parlay crew are awesome!
Thank you. Simply, thank you
You are quite welcome! 💗💗
Beautiful place and episode! So happy you had this experience!
Hi Marisa! Thanks for coming along with us :)
Patiently waiting for the Speedy Stitch sponsorship!
Ditto .... 🪡🧵
Ha! Parley, Delos, and kind people! Amazing videography! Great episode One Life!
Hey, thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Great video B&G! A nice way to get moving with some tea on Sunday morning. The turtle dive... Awesome! Getting your provisioning back to the boat in that kind of wind and chop... Not so awesome... But probably makes the good times feel even better. With the batten stitching, I'm wondering if putting some smooth edged discs of 1/8” HDPE inside the part of the pocket tearing out would make it last longer...? Seems like the end of the batten is poking and breaking the fibers.
Hi Larry! Thanks for spending your Sunday morning with us. That is exactly what is happening with the battens. We are thinking we should round the edges of the battens themselves and then maybe dip the ends in a rubber coating.
@@SailingOneLife if the battens themselves are polyethylene, it's not likely the coating will stick. But you could round the edges and made a stitched cow hide leather cap to slide over the end of the batten. That would probably work. Punch and stitch it like a baseball glove with leather strips or thin rope. If you're still in NZ you could probably find that in a craft store.
What an amazing trip you guys are having. OMG 😱 WOW ‼️ And so much philosophy. Thank you Brooke and Gary. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
Thank you! We are so fortunate to be experiencing this! See you next week! 🤩🐟💃🤸
Groovy episode. Loved your hike and seeing the wild life. The turtles were lovely.
Turtley awesome! 😂💙
Thank you for sharing your beautiful journey, very nice video
We really appreciate you joining us!
Thankyou 😊
Great video Brooke and Gary. Turtles were awesome; I love turtles. Nice to see Delos as well. Tahiti is beautiful. Thanks for sharing. 😃
Hi Lois! Thanks as always for such a nice comment! We hope you had a great weekend!
Amazing sea life, love the dancing, lol. Whoa, that's a shopping trip, what a pain in ass with the dingy and the waves. Great walk/climb, what a view. I love waterfalls and that was beautiful. Great vlog :)
Haha glad you liked the dancing! Yeah the wet groceries were a bit of a bummer but it's all part of the adventure :) See ya next week!
Like the underwater video
Thank you! 🐟💙
Thankyou for telling us the names of the flora and fauna .
Glad you enjoy that part of our videos
Great video you two! I saw you in WeSails footage months ago.. I was waiting for these episodes to appear on your channel. How much was the provisioning worth - unless I missed it you didnt answer your own question. You two are inspirational, keep the videos coming. Love the content
Ah very cool! We love W&E! I did mention in the video but it was $1700 USD for provisioning. Thanks for coming along with us! Happy to hear you are enjoying our journey!
Great video. Loved the swimming with turtles. Fabulous scenery around the islands. Looks hard work with all that shopping, I’m surprised you got it and yourselves in the dinghy.
We land lovers probably don’t appreciate how difficult it is to provision from a 3 month voyage and the challenges involved.
Thanks, Paul! French Polynesia sure is a special place! The provisioning gets easier every time we do it!
Hi Gang! This is interesting about the starfish : "The new study sheds light on new possibilities in crown-of-thorns starfish management. So far, experts have tried to cull wild populations by injecting them with vinegar or bile salts, or by removing and destroying the starfish one at a time. In 2015, crews killed 350,000 starfish, but somewhere between 4 to 12 million in total live in the Great Barrier Reef, per the Washington Post. In 2018, the researchers deployed starfish-killing robots to manage the Great Barrier Reef’s starfish population."
Hey Geoff! These starfish are brutal! We were shocked how many covered the reef in the Moorea area. In the past, we have only seen a couple but here we noticed hundreds scattered about. Interesting to hear about the numbers in the Great Barrier Reef. Extremely heartbreaking.
@@SailingOneLife Yea I'm of the non-intervention mindset, usually. It seems like we do things to fix a problem that only makes it worse later on. Suppose the crowns eating the reef serves some purpose that keeps disease in the reef at bay? I dunno.
Eating McDonald's in the middle of the South Pacific! Noticed Brian, Karin and Sierra that's cool! They are building Delos 2 a new catamaran. Would you guys like a catamaran or stay in mono? Your first video and subsequent travels has me questioning the work until death paradigm.
Hey there! We are pretty happy with our mono and at this point don't feel the need (or have the funds) to upgrade to a catamaran.
21:20 Every time I see this kid I cannot help but think of how LUCKY she is to be raised in this environment.
She is living the LIFE!
That title is like, "put it in your mouth-trust me" lol
😂😂
It’s all fun and games until you have to go grocery shopping 😂😂
So true! Who knew it would take up an entire day....plus one to put it all away.
You have the entire cast of Finding Nemo in this video! :) Fun stuff.
We were calling the clownfish, Nemo fish! 🤩💙🐟
Easily my all-time favorite movie, barely besting Ratatouille for that honor. :)
Did you guys see any of the actors from the TV series, "Adventures in Paradise," while inTahiti or Papaette? Ha! It was one of my favorite shows back in the early 60s, long before your time.
Haha never heard of the show but just looked it up!
It was just black and white wasn't it?
Truly guys, as many have posted, amazing underwater video and words, perhaps some documentaries in your future! ;) All the best, i too need McDonalds as a Canadian, but i feel mostly American ;)
Thanks for your kind words on the dive footage! We don't mind sharing our McDonald's with you! 💙🇨🇦
What camera gear did you use to film underwater. The video is awesome!
We use a GoPro Hero11 along with two V3Nemo dive lights attached to a tray. The lights are a game changer! Thanks for noticing!
My dream is to sail there. I'm working on making that happen now.
Yesssss! Get out here! We are cheering for you to make it happen!
@@SailingOneLifeHey thanks. I'm going to build a Mumby Cyber 48 catamaran like Sailing Life on Jupiter has. If I get lucky than I might purchase a used one if the price is right.
A very nice video. Loved the turtle footage. I know Sea Turtles are reptiles and you mentioned that they sleep amongst the coral. Well how long do they hold their breath for. Amazing video.
I don't know exactly but I've heard they can hold their breath for about two hours while resting! Pretty incredible!
We swam with black tip sharks and stingy rays which we fed.
Such a cool experience!
Great career advice. Send me a check for a boat and all my expenses for two year and I will meet you at the next island.
We will put it in the mail! 🤣💌
It must be much cooler and comfortable without the BEARD. I grow one for winter in Prescott Arizona.
Definitely much cooler!
Love it! I’d rather a rough dingy ride on the way there and a smooth one on the way back 😂 not the other way round, *cough* Tongatapu*cough* 😂😂
HAHA! This grocery trip is why we brought trash bags with us in Tongatapu! 😂😂
@@SailingOneLife very smart! And definitely worth it! 😂
Don't you miss boat life?! We just got home today....feels so good!
