Absolutely Breath taking ......The Last 5 videos have been amazing guy's.....Please stay safe and Happy holiday's.....
Awww, wonderful comment, we really appreciate you taking the time to let us know you've enjoyed them. Liz x
Millie would have dug those turtles! 🐈🐢⛵
She would have been squeaking with delight through the whole trip. God, I miss her. ❤️😔 Liz
Who cut Liz's hair? I am just loving the new style.
Thank you to Jamie and the other cruisers for generously sharing underwater footage. It looks gorgeous!
So good to know you enjoyed the footage, it's hard to capture how stunning the underwater life is in this part of the world
If you get the chance to visit, we'd recommend it. Liz 🙏
PS. Got my hair cut in the marina before we left on the rally. I LOVE it, so easy to manage. 👍
Beautifully made video. I was immediately curious about the coconut craps! 😂 love that Liz is up for the adventure whether it be to see craps or crabs!
I felt such a fool, haha! But it's funny though. I'm always up for an adventure. 🙏 Liz
We watched this video after watching your most recent, final vid for 2020....This is the reason we love your videos....truly superb effort guys! You have taken us to a place we will never go and we are grateful!
From a guy of the same vintage as you guys and does a lot of diving, some advice. Put your tanks and bc on in the water you'll never have back pain again! OH and Advil!
Thank you to the group of contributors for such beautiful footage. 💙
Yes, a lot of camerawork for a lot of us went into this episode. Thank you! Liz 🙏👍
I have a friend, whose father was the CEO of National Geographic ,when he was growing up. He told me Jacques Cousteau was a frequent dinner guest at his house here in Maryland. The stories he heard were incredible.
Wow, what an honour for your friend's father! I'm sure Cousteau's stories would have been fascinating, but even more so back then when no one had seen the things he had seen.
I'm sure this prove to be one of the most treasured memories in your sailing lifetime. Spectacular.
I'm curious, how large are the turtles we're seeing in the video?
As always, thumbed!
They're pretty big! If I'm 5ft 10 I'd say, end to end, legs outstretched, they'd almost come up to my chest.
See a doc and take care of your back so you can keep making these great video's for years to come. I love you guys!
Amazing underwater footage. 👍😍
Safe journey & take care. 😃
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. You too! Liz
Back trouble is what has stopped me from diving [45years]. You might try using ankle weights, 1-2 pounds each. that will put your diving, snorkeling position slightly more verticle taking the weight off your mid section, and the reverse bend on your back. CHEERS AND FAIR WINDS Steve h.
Wonderful. In New Caledonia in 2011 we saw a large brown patch in the water ahead of us and we thought it was an uncharted rock, but it turned out to be a turtle! That's the nearest we came to seeing one up close.
Congratulations Liz and Jamie on a great series of videos. Maybe we wish we hadn't shipped the yacht to Turkey and sold her.
Cheers, Jim and Jean
Oh no, though sold her? Did you buy another one? We love Turkey, always said we could live in Fethiye, but not so sure about the politics these days. Sabah, on the other hand, is a definite possibility for the future. Peace and fair winds. Liz 🙏❤️
Wonderful as always. Sorry about your back, Liz. Until next Sunday!
It's getting better, thank you, Daniel.
Thank you for sharing all those beautiful underwater shots❤️. You are our inspiration to sail in our golden years🥰
Wow! Thrilled we inspire you. Thanks for commenting. 🙏❤️ Liz
Put ice on/off for 20 min. Ice and turmeric are excellent for inflammation, stay well...
Cheers! All cleared up now. 🙏 Liz
I'm guessing the Coconut Crabs leave behind coconut craps. Stunning footage from everybody. I like that you have attributed each clip. I'm stuck in New England where it's 34 F (1 C) and supposed to snow tomorrow, so these videos help me feel warmer.
So glad to know we're warming you up. Here's to a better year in 2021. Liz
Absolutely magical place on Earth! Thanks for sharing.
Couldn't agree more! It's stunning. Liz
Very nice!
Thanks guys..
Cheers, Trev 😁👍
What an amazing dive site. Great vision.
Like nothing we'd seen before. The sheer volume of marine life was breathtaking. 🙏🐢🦈🐠🐟 Liz
Absolutely gorgeous, what an outstanding place, I hope to visit it this next year. Thank you for the wonderful video!
I hope you do too. It's spectacular. 👍 Liz
Thank you for today's video. ❤
You're welcome. Have you made it to Sipadan? Liz 🙏
@@followtheboat hope to one day ❤
Nice. Hope we can get there!
Outstanding video and tour under the water. It’s amazing to see such a large verity of fish and coral and clear water. That’s getting sadly rare so I hope what’s being done here can be duplicated elsewhere. Thank you and sail on 😎👍⛵️⛵️
We were so happy when Lindsay said they've seen a marked improvement in four years. TBH lockdown and lack of tourism has helped improve the wildlife all over Sabah. We even saw it in the marina. Nature is incredible. Liz 🙏
@@followtheboat That’s awesome to hear. Maybe other in danger sites could take note before it’s to late. We can with effort change the damage we’ve caused. Make more noise with the observation you’ve made. You have the means and you have the ears of your listeners ! 😎⛵️🙏👍🇺🇸
Sorry about your back Liz. I have the same problem. Fortunately we had a great diving week at Sodwana in South Africa. Always wanted to go to Sipadan
If you like diving, you HAVE to get yourself to Sipadan, you'll love it. Liz
Fantastic. I am so jealous. I was, however, disappointed not to see the coconut cr*ps!
So was I. 🌴💩🦀 Liz xx
God!! So gorgeous!! Absolutely stunning!
Glad you enjoyed it, Daniel. Hope you're keeping well 👍
@@followtheboat I am well. A little tough financially during Covid. But doing surprisingly well.
@@danielgorz7594 yep, it's difficult, isn't it? Everyone is suffering, to a greater or lesser degree. We're just rolling with it currently. Stay safe and stay well 😃👍
Dang the "Bad Luck" for Liz's Back Issue with Snorkeling 😥 At least ya enjoy the rest of "Paradise" Continue to Enjoy 😎
Thanks for caring. TBH I was in tears, but instead of filming me, Jamie gave me a cuddle. I was gutted and would have dived if the back had been up to it. Now, of course, it's fine again. 🤔🙄 Liz x
@@followtheboat Do thankful Jamie could give you some affection!!! It never as heavy a burden when sharing the load❣️👍🏽
Beautiful photography. Nice to hear that there has been some improvement in the the coral at this location. Hopefully the effort can be duplicate in other locations.
I really hope so too. Lockdown and lack of tourism has been a real boon for the wildlife in Sabah, probably elsewhere too. Don't you love nature? Liz
This is so cool! I hope your back will be okay Liz. Anambas missed you.. 😄
My back is fine now, but it was bad for a few months. You never know, we might come back to Anambas one day. Peace on Earth in 2021. Liz xx
amazing
There used to be a resort in Sipadan. The diving there was famous due to the drop off right next to the jetty. Walk to the beach from your hat, jump in and experience world best diving... bit more difficult now, but still one of the best. I have great memories from there. Thanks for taking me back.
No resorts anymore, just staff and ESSCOM security. But maybe that's helped keep the place pristine...? It's a stunning spot. Liz 🙏
Outstanding footage. Lovely video. Sail Safe Guys, Ant, Cid & the pooch crew.
Thanks, chaps, I'm so pleased to know you enjoyed it. Appreciate the comment too. Liz 🙏👍
6:20 We saw one that was over three feet in length when we were on Kwajalein Atoll.
Wow! I'd love to have seen that. Good job they prefer coconut flesh to human flesh! 😁 Liz
Sipadan is great, definitely one of the best dive spots in the world. But there is at least one that is a notch better. And that is Jardines de la Reina - Cuba.
Aha! We have to get there then. 😁🤿🐢🙏 Liz
You make me laugh. Please carry on. Got to work out how to contribute to the rum fund!
Liz, have you considered finding a chiropractor, acupuncturist, masseur, doing yoga?
Haha! I've tried it all. Where we were there was nothing for it but stretches and pain killers. All good now though. Cheers, Liz
@@followtheboat Good. FYI Valerian root taken with benadryl makes a powerful muscle relaxer
MERRY MERRY!STILL MISS MILLIE
We miss her more than you could know. Here's to a happier and healthier 2021 for everyone. Liz
I will get there once my cat is built. Was in Borneo by land, soon by sea. Beautiful footage! Thanks as always for sharing!
We reckon we could actually live here one day in the future particularly Sabah, there's so much going for it. I hope you get to sail here one day. 🙏 Liz
@@followtheboat Just have to get used to the constant heat, and bugs. But maybe it is a bit different when living on the sea? Inland was always hot, even when rainy, but going out to the longhouse on the river by boat, I remember, was cooler. Living in the tropics for a decade now, I've acclimated somewhat as we were in Tokyo straight from New York back then. Yes, Sabah is quite amazing, and the people are super kind and friendly. I will get there under sail, and we can share a beer or two...
Liz, try snorkeling lying over a fender !
I'll try that next time, sounds comfy. Not sure how I'll duck dive down with the fender though... 😁🙏 Liz xx
Better then National Geographic
You could ‘LOCKmeDOWN’ there all year😊 ... snorkel and mask instead of 😷🥲great vid guys... enjoy !
It was so tempting to stay at BohayDulang! Mind you, we special treatment when it came to the diving and jumped the queue, as it were. Normally there's a three month waiting list to dive at Sipidan 😮
amazing underwater stuff, hey are you guys still thinking of cruising up thru japan and then over to alaska?. well when the world stops imploding.
We keep talking about it, but so many things have thwarted that dream. Can't make any plans till this bloody disease calms down. Here's to health and happiness in 2021. Liz x
You need a spinal adjustment from a good chiropractor and your pain will disappear like magic. Don't wait too long cuz it'll only get worse. Cheers !
Holy fuck! That was awesome.
Hahaha! Couldn't have put it better. Cheers and good wishes for a happy 2021. 😁👍 Liz
Sweet 🐢 🐢 🐠 🐟 🥥
Never get tired of those turtles. 🐢🤿🐠
Coconut craps? Is that what they do when they see a villiager climbing up the tree with a machete?
I heard somewhere (Delos i think) that them crabs are no good to eat which is a shame as they are so meaty.
Sorry to hear about your poor back Liz. What has that effin heathen done to you lol? cheers.
Haha, Jamie's done nothing wrong, in fact he has a recurring back problem too...
Apparently you can eat coconut crabs, but the population is designated "vulnerable" by the IUCN so island populations are encouraged not to hunt them:

Cheers for commenting, good to see you here again. 🙏👍Liz
P.s.: Three video ads from competing car insurance companies. Go figure...
Daniel Wardin.
Thanks for letting us know, Daniel. We are going to be discussing the issue of advertising to camera, probably next week, so please stay tuned. We'd love to hear your feedback then 👍
@8.50 is he dead or just sleeping?
Nice BUT nothing compared to scuba diving in the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea!
