Great to see your followers are increasing!cannot understand why you don’t have hundreds of thousands !! People don’t know what they are missing!! Stay safe! Watching from Canada’s west coast - grew up in NZ & looking forward to a niece & a cousin coming to visit in May - bringing lots of Whittaker’s with them!
I agree, they should have at least as many subscribers, as sailing Zatara and the Wynns. People don’t know what they’re missing. Cheers from East Lansing MICHIGAN
Paraphrasing, "People are nice all over the world." True. But some people are nicer and you guys have a knack of finding them everywhere you go! That was a quick underway from anchorage and you got up to a really nice speed quickly. Rob. I've seen Declan bring up the anchor enough to know he's got it all figured out. Trust your EMC 😁 OK, maybe not on the mid-watch while you in a race-not-race with another family boat 😈 Yuppers, that was a poke at Dec's dozing skills!
Yeah it doesn't take too long to get going normally. Once we decide to go I get a bit frenetic and urgent. Normally the boys don't need telling how far the anchor has to go as we have markers at 10m 5m and 1m. Love the dig!
Good morning 0716 hours Ontario Canada. I saw your video leaving Thailand excellent. And I saw Kiwi Boys short/sweet/great videography. That great you met up with another boater had drinks on the resort. Area looks fabulous. Yes that pink fluff material did wonders to the sound from being outdoors. Have a great sail catch you soon
Mocha is getting braver each vlog!! On top of the roof haha I do remember Ivan playing with the pink stuff, one of the first laughs I got watching your vids almost a year now. About the nice people, difficult not to be nice with you, Hamills, with that charming and welcoming attitude. You have to buy more from this guy, (clever shoptender making good new clients). Love the ending, Rachel! Fun way to wrap it up. Safe journey, good winds, dives and treckings! PS.: It is mandatory to put on the flag of the country you arrive to? If so, you have to buy it or they give it at customs? Never thought about it.
Critical time for the boys lives to be with friends and growing beyond the boat. I can sense it. I enjoy the videos greatly but can see that the boys need to venture off for themselves soon.
Great live. Thanks for showing off anchor and on your way sailing. Appreciated your guy in the store story and showing where you're headed next. Keep up the great work. Love to see what's next on the adventure!
I love the technical stuff that Rob does to show where, what and how to sail. But then I love the whole family things that y'all do, been watching for quite some time now. Thanks for these videos, it does brighten up my day. Question, where is Sir Ivan ?
I enjoy the navigation report could have zoomed in a bit closer to see what you were talking about, the Maldives I think is very interesting, the more facts and stories with charts and visits ashore the more interesting for me.
Another very entertaining Live today guys, well done, as always. However one question, did you leave your youngest behind? 🙂 Reminds me of that movie, Home Alone! hahaha
Hey there, sorry, missed you this morning. Just arrived back in dubai from an amazing trip to Phuket. What a beautiful place. Sent some pics to you on insta. Went out on a Schooner. Even got to assist with getting the sails up. All being well going back for another visit soon.
Rob. i was watching another channel called "Itchy Boots". Right now Noraly is riding through Madigascar and she had guides running through the jungle and swamp>>>>>>>>> barefoot
Yes that seems to be the way but this resort was very welcoming. We had to follow certain procedure but they let us in for a drink at the bar and I dare say we could have eaten there too but we didn’t ask.
@@TheCruisingKiwis honestly after watching zatara and Nohoa go through,yes I would love to stop and enjoy the culture and probably will if and when I pass through,can only hope things change towards sea faring folks on a limited budget. Would like to kick in to your budget,just need to verify it independently outside of this system, im just a poor Aussie being neighbourly,might call on help in the future,doesn’t need to be monetary,looking at an old cat that’s been neglected,might need verbal assistance,will cross that bridge later,still aways off.
@@TheCruisingKiwis you guys are going through at the start of the northern spring right ,so the season there is still not kicked off,so understandable they are accommodating,,sorry for being critical,timing is everything,even with attitude towards tourists,just want to gather as much real-time information to plan my own movements through the area,personally I’d go straight up to India for a year or two.
Sorry to rant but I was really annoyed when you stopped Rob from showing us where you were heading 21:50, perhaps you should have just handed the camera to Rob so he can continue!
My bad, I couldn’t hold the camera still and was finding hard to see the iPad screen. The lives are different in many ways than the edited vlogs where a shaky picture and unclear view are a no no. Apologies all round

A groovy free form episode. You guys are so cute.
I personally LOVE the lives, actually anything you folks put out no matter the order. Keep it Up!!! Thx USA
Thank you!

Thank you @@donaldwatson554
Thank you for bringing me along!
Good morning from Houston TX USA
😮
Your whole family is amazing!
@@daviddixon9257hello thank you David
Declan didn't have his assistant...I'm assuming Ivan was asleep 😴. lol
Can't wait to see your next location.
Ivan who?
👍🏻 ⛵️. I could see Robs navigation quite well 😊
My favorite 🙄 yuck-tube platform doesn't allow me to watch your live feed.😢 I still enjoyed watching... 👍🏻
@@stevenr8606that's strange huh
@@TheCruisingKiwisit does show up pretty well and easy to follow as Rob moves the screen and shows the planned route.
So blue. Love the nav info😊
The pink furry material over the mic is doing an excellent job reducing wind noise. Hi from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina USA.
Good to know!
Thanks for showing your takeoff. Great to see

I have been watching you guys for several years.

That punk fluff was an experiment that worked OK.
We could see the Nav screen OK, just so ya know. Always nice see see you folks! Sail safe!
Agree. The nav screen shows up just fine through the camera.
The EMC sacrifices his hand to the cat 😄
Again
Andy, per chance are you based in Darwin?
No - Jersey, Channel Islands.
Mocha is getting braver each vlog!! On top of the roof haha
I do remember Ivan playing with the pink stuff, one of the first laughs I got watching your vids almost a year now.

Safe journey, good winds, dives and treckings!
PS.: It is mandatory to put on the flag of the country you arrive to? If so, you have to buy it or they give it at customs? Never thought about it.
It's not mandatory but expected. Each flag costs about 15.
Loved Rob's navigation. Just saying.
Cheers Rhett
I just love following you all on your adventures and your wee cat is adorable ❤
West Ozzy watching from Pattaya 👍🏼 lovin it
We LOVED our time in WA. What a coastline

Thanks Steve the shop owner is a beautiful man.

Ivan who?
@@TheCruisingKiwis Opps, is it man overboard, Lol. Or a deserter ? Lol.
Rachel your editing skills are appreciated! Especially wrangling Robs bouncy! 😂
I enjoy the navigation report could have zoomed in a bit closer to see what you were talking about, the Maldives I think is very interesting, the more facts and stories with charts and visits ashore the more interesting for me.
Indeed
Oh crap! Dreaded second post 😱
Didn't we hear something about an abandoned resort that you guys were planning to visit?
Yeah, gotta keep something for the episodes though huh. 😊
@@TheCruisingKiwis good. I keep telling the cat I'm not crazy. But just laughs. 😸
misssed ya
Another very entertaining Live today guys, well done, as always. However one question, did you leave your youngest behind? 🙂 Reminds me of that movie, Home Alone! hahaha
The youngest? Do you mean Declan???😂
@@TheCruisingKiwis Thought youngest was Ivan. So you did leave him behind! 🤣🤣🤣
😂@@WayneKline

Yes saw the photos, very impressive, where did you sail to?
Welcome back Jon! Good food too huh
Hello Cruising Kiwis,
What Breed is your gorgeous little Kitty? She has the cutest lil tail.
Best wishes & safe travels Kylie 🐯💕🐯💕💙💙💙
Hi Kylie Mocha is a tortoise shell. The tail is a genetic thing with many cats in Asia having this peculiarity
🐯🧡💛🐯🧡💛🐯🧡💛
Paint the chain in the last 10 feet so it’s visible when hauling up.
We have markers at 10m 5m 1m. Rachel didn't need to tell Declan.
Sound good with ersatz deceased cat...hand part a bit fluffy 😂
The energy is palpable,are you guys heading to Madagascar or straight to the African continent.?
The plan is Seychelles, Tanzania Madagascar SA
😊😊😊
⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵ ⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵
Not that much effort to get the boat moving after all. I thought it would be a bigger hassle.
It can take longer but yeah that was a good one.
Rob. i was watching another channel called "Itchy Boots". Right now Noraly is riding through Madigascar and she had guides running through the jungle and swamp>>>>>>>>> barefoot
Ooh sounds interesting
The sound sounds pink
😂
Okay what did you do with Ivan? Is he still on the island, oops.
Ivan who?
Resort islands are private,no access usually allowed unfortunately,private owners and guests only.
Safe sailing guys.
Yes that seems to be the way but this resort was very welcoming. We had to follow certain procedure but they let us in for a drink at the bar and I dare say we could have eaten there too but we didn’t ask.
