    Captain Nikki and the school kid!
    I appreciate that Nikki is driving the boat through an *interesting* bit of water and Jason is running around the boat yelping and trying to have her look at this and that the whole time the pass is trying to shake every locker like a Polaroid picture. Spectacular dynamics!
    Fine video!

    OK, it’s time we are honest about a few things:
    🐠 I have a sailing video watching problem
    🐠 This addiction qualifies me to make the following statements:
    🐠 Your videos are the best at, telling a story, cinematography, editing, & scoring.
    🐠 You have built your channel without t & a or excessive partying content.
    🐠 I have other favorite sailing channels all of which could learn from your gold standard.
    🐠 Short of an intervention I “ain’t” gonna stop watching.

    Thankyou for all the time effort and work you put into each video you make and the filming and knowledge you pay k into each also we are just finishing binge watching every episode from the first during our time off and I must say it's been a very enjoyable ride being in your pocket for all these adventures and thanks so darn much for sharing the good and not so good and keeping it real Nd not just glossing over everything we are still curious how many bathing suits the Mrs has we are sure it's more than shoes now and we keep trying to guess when we will see a new one
    Thanks for being our superheros and funseakers. Never loose that innocence. Get Kent out for a little exotic cruise and some spare parts always lots hugs and well wishes. Love you all.

We don't scuba but we do enjoy snorkeling, I miss the sound of the ocean under water, you guys deliver on that almost every week. It's where I come to get my ocean fix. Keep up the great work.

BTW, I saw a hammerhead and some dolphins, but no rays. Maybe on your next passthrough you’ll see the hammerheads (I was told they are rarely on the reef, maybe 10x a year; but usually are in the blue). Happy sails!

Yes or no. Anyways, looks like a very cool ride 22 knots woohoo! Full engines with chains etc would be like the roof on a house if it flacks off only after a year? Yes, I hear you, Lady. Enjoy your ride. Great voyage so far!

I stayed at the Kia Ora and the Sauvage. It's one of my all time favorite destinations and I'm hoping to return one more time this spring. So this episode is particularly fun for me. Thanks again for letting me relive the wonders of this very special place as I plan another visit to the South Pacific.

    I felt like it was lions tigers and bears but with the ocean sharks, dolphins, and waves! Beautiful beautiful footage made me really wanderlust for it all

    @GonewiththeWynns you need to swap your chain from end to end to make it last longer, find a shallow sandy bay or get close to beaching it and swap the chain end to end to make it last longer. you sould be doing this even with a quality chain too, at least once a year or two, but with your fake grade chain it needs to be done more often.
