Here's an old mechanic's trick to help keep windows clear if you have a potato or starch source on board. Clean thoroughly as you did. Mix your starch a cup's worth to a liter should do. Or take a potato and cut it in half. Coat the windscreen with the solution. Or rub the potato over it. You might have to thinly slice the potato to keep the face fresh. The starch will make any water sheet off the surface clearly instead of accumulating in droplets which are hard to see through. This works on cars to if your windshield wipers are broken. Fair sailing.
Fantastic episode as usual, I get where John comes from, when a job needs to be done you make sure it is done before you rest. Certainly were lucky that the fuel dock let you stay. Keep up the awesome work, looking forward to the next episode
Very true! Thanks so much Sean. Yes, we were super lucky they let us stay, we moved a few times but I think in the end they felt sorry for us because we literally had no where to go! And by the time we got settled it was well after midnight, so we were only there for a few hours in the end before we headed off. Thanks, and looking forward to sharing the next episode with you S! 🙂
Cheers Robin! It sure is crazy right now isn't it!!!! The ocean is so soothing for the chaos.. just heading down to the beach is some good medicine :) x
New subscriber guys. I just found you. I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 but living in Orange County California. I’ve got family living in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 good day mates !

Im so, so jealous. Im still restoring (going on 6 years) an old abandoned Beneteau Oceanis 320 in Manly QLD. Take me with you guys! Enjoy and safe sailing.
@@KristinasTravels East coast of QLD then hopefully aroud Australia for a year slowly cruising to see and experience as much of our beautiful coastline as possible. Thanks for the wonderful content you produce.
Another just alright video?? Are you kidding me this again was a Fantastic video great filming and imagery. Sardinia Italy to France Monaco wow. Enjoy yourselves looing forward to next video
Cant wait to share Susanna!! Monaco is something else 🤩 Seriously such another world, a city like no where else, and just a short little trip from our cozy marina ⛵️
Hey hey Kris n John! Long time no speak. Hope you're both well. Another amazing episode. Particularly humoured by John getting coy about the mammatus clouds. Can relate. Spent a great deal of time with my head in those bob Tait cpl textbooks and meteorology was probably my favourite! If I didn't become a pilot I'd have probably been a meteorologist. Only job in the world you can get paid for consistently being wrong! Safe n happy travels my favourite YTers. Much love as always ❤❤
Nice video! You certainly explained it some time back why you would skip Corsica. All my french friends have been bragging that it is among the most beautiful islands in the world. Well, Monaco may do as a replacement lol.
Thank you so much Jeffrey ☺️ So grateful for your contribution and for supporting my work. Cant wait to share this journey with you my friend 🤩🧡⛵️ KC x
Sensational, that looked like a smooth crossing in any case. Yeah like John mentioned at 16:00 “Just Bang it out” the Kiwis are flicking live broadcasts out like there’s no tomorrow. Sailing LaVagabond are calling them Special Documentary’s including Darwin informing 50 odd thousand viewers he needs to poo. So indeed bang it out including the shouts.😊
Can’t wait too Kyle!! ☺️ The French Coast is something else.. really incredible to explore ❤️ at times by boat difficult, but we’ll share all very soon 😁
Jazzzz!!!! Thank you SO much for joining our Patreon crew mate - truly appreciate your support and keeping this channel going my friend. Wouldn’t be possible without you, so thanks for joining! I’ll be putting out some more bts content over the coming werk. Also, make sure you join our private Facebook group to interact with the group, I’ll send you an invite 🙂🙂 KC x
Just found you guys, now watching from the start and happens I’m moving to Melbourne. My wife and I are looking to start learning to sail so once kids are big enough we can basically do the exact same trip. How much experience did John have to start with? We are completely new to sailing, but I know boats 😜
Oh my gosh!!! Crazy timing!! 🤣😅 Good luck with the studies. Perfect time for pilot training, so many jobs going atm 👏🏽☺️ Cheers Cody! Keep us posted on your progress 👌😁
That is an absolute DREAM! 💭 Can’t wait for the day to come to life. Thank you for watching and your support Andy ☺️🙏 One day! Is this your favourite place in Europe?
Just wondering, im new to channel and in Bonificio now, how come you cant just anchor up in the gorgeous coves atound the island and tender to the beaches for food and amenities rather than booking marina slots? I dont sail so...like in this episode you could have avoided the weather in a cove and then moved on to france?
We were able to head to Bonifacio in Corsica which was an absolute highlight!!! We’ll have to return and do it again sometime when we have another boat and some better weather 🤗🥰
Hey I love the channel I am currently in Antibes and would love to get some sailing experience in .im a great deckhand with a couple of daywork behind me .would you be able to take on another hand on deck I’m happy to pay my own way +I’m great in the kitchen
Sooooooooooo exciting ‼️ Totally love how you (Kristina) describe John, your captain and boyfriend. It is refreshing to see a real man fulfill what he is destined to be. Also love the engaging of Kelly (sp?) as she is part of the crew. Just a ton of fun. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
Hi Richard! Thanks so much! Yes, super proud and stoked to see John shine! He’s such a brilliant captain and we’re so lucky to have such a skilled person at the helm with so much experience around planning, risk management and safety! 🙌 It really takes the pressure off the rest of the crew ❤️🤩 Can’t wait to take you along the French Riviera!

Haha, too right Paul! 🤣🤩 I’m sure she’ll pick the words up super quickly too! 👏🏽☺️ Thanks again so much for the Super Thanks! Means so much x
I live in mentone, Melbourne, named after Menton in France , my wife and I trained through there once upon .
Oh wowww! Of course, I didn’t realise that’s where the suburb got its name from 😱 Wonderful! How beautiful is it?! All the coloured little houses 🤗
Groovy episode. Love the Ozzy song. France, what a trip. Snails in garlic anyone? Giggles.
Haha, the Aussie song is very traditional 🤩😂 We’ll get into some of the cuisine in the next episode 🤗👏🏽🙂 yay!!!
That boat needs a nice hard top on it all the way to the back a lot of real estate back there for shade and solar
100%!!! The best add on for sure! Would be perfect fitted with some solar too 🙌🙌 especially in the summer months! 😁
💘
🤗👏🏽 thank you always for leaving us some love with a comment to help with the algorithm! We appreciate your emojis and support ❤️🥰 x
Kristina, what would you say The Med vs the Carribean?
Love your channel
Initially reaction … The Med!!!!!! 🤣😁 … but loved both, really!
I mean.. we’ve only seen the Bahamas! 🇧🇸 but… love love love the food in the Med! X
Just wondering, im new to channel and in Bonificio now, how come you cant just anchor up in the gorgeous coves atound the island and tender to the beaches for food and amenities rather than booking marina slots?

Holly guacamole, Monoco!

Missing out by not stoping in corsica !!🤔🤷🏻♂️
We were able to head to Bonifacio in Corsica which was an absolute highlight!!! We’ll have to return and do it again sometime when we have another boat and some better weather 🤗🥰
you guys rock , great video and even greater adventures 👍👍👍🇦🇺
Cheers FTW! 🙌 Can’t wait to head further west along the coastline, so much to see! Monaco, Nice, St Tropez, Cannes!!!! Bring it on 🤩🧡🇫🇷👏🏽⛵️
So, the name of the boat in french is 80 or 4 winds? quatre-vingts or quatre vents
Sorry our French isn't great.. haha.. it's Four Winds! :)
