    So glad your channel came up on my feed. That was stressful for me😅. Said i would have waited on the top of the dune till the tide went out again. Salt water eish just saw the under cartridge bearings etc etc suffering(confirm a good wash down under and through the channels and bearing pack was done after?). You guys are brave to have tackled that. But like Dave said the skills transfer is priceless.
    Thanks for the video. Safe travels.

    I'm sorry to say this, but I would have been mad as hell at Jakkals if I was in that convoy. Knowingly leading you into a run between the sea and steep dunes while the tide is coming in? That was an utterly stupid decision, in my opinion.
    Better would have been to wait on top of that dune for the tide to come in and go out before attempting that part, even if it means that the tour might arrive a few hours later than planned at the next camping point or end point or whatever the case may be. Safety should be first, and he knowingly put the whole convoy and their vehicles in danger. Not to mention the unnecessary salt water exposure, which is sure to lead to problems on the vehicles down the line.
    And Jakkals isn't very helpful either. Just saying to people to drive fast is of no help at all. One person's fast is another person's slow. He should rather have given the convoy a minimum speed to try and maintain. Also, as the tour guide, he should not be swearing when people do become stuck, it is to be expected when you have a group of drivers who might not all be so experienced with dune and beach driving as he is, for him it should be part and parcel of leading tours like this.
    But thanks for the video, now I'll know better than to ever use Jakkals as a tour guide in the Namib.
