That was great, we had a tour while they were hear, our home town Newcastle, nice to sea them sailing, congratulations mum n dad, bubs first sail on an ocean clipper racer no less, Thanks heaps
So glad to see your beautiful faces again. I knew you were having a child but twins, Holy Cow. Wishing you all the best. Can’t wait until you guys are back on the water.
It's so great to see you both again! Glad you are doing well. Love your smiles! Isabelle you look fantastic! There is a glow about you! I wish you both the best! Looking forward to another video soon!
Joshua Slocum, (born Feb. 20, 1844, Wilmot, Nova Scotia, Can.-died 1909/10, at sea), Canadian seaman and adventurer who was the first man in recorded history to sail around the world singlehandedly.
Yes, he is the first one who wrote a book about his voyage. There are undocumented accounts of other sailors circling the globe alone, including a woman from Brittan. But the one who publishes first gets the credit always.
Wow - what a treat! I’m jealous!! Did you know that Sailing Aquarius lost both their masts while sailing east to west across the Atlantic to Martinique? It happened suddenly and with no warning or advance signs of wear or breakage. The main mast came down after breaking about 4ft above the deck. The spar fell just off the centreline of the boat. Other than the boom nothing went into the water. The mast actually was “hung up” for a while because of the “triatic” shroud. The mizzen collapsed after a while. No injuries as Ken and his wife were below. Seas were very flat ands wind was under 14kts. They were 1200nm east of Martinique. They had to motor to Martinique and were able to get 300gal of fuel from a large cat that overtook them and had spare fuel. Ken got most electronics - Starlink, radar, AIS and VHF running. They are now trying to organize new spars and almost all of the SS deck gear and solar panels. You should look at their IG and UA-cam posts. Incredible display of seamanship and ingenuity!
They got in contact with us almost immediately wondering where we are getting our mast from. Its what nightmears are made of! They handled themselves very well. Thanks for watching Toller
Such a great surprise to see this vid pop up! Enjoyable as always, very well put together! Had to chuckle when Isabelle said she wanted to see dolphins, she loves dolphins so much! Best wishes for the trip to Sweden!
Haha we made a slight miss calculation with the upload time haha it was meant to be 24 hours later. Glad it worked well for you David. Thanks for watching
Awesome!! I will check out the Clipper race. I did some regatta's, biggest being Rolex Fast Net. But the fact you can just join for a leg, sounds very cool :)
@@SailingMerewether checked it. They're going into their 7th leg now out of 8. And you need to follow 4 different trainings. So I'll keep an eye for it for next year. But definitely interested!! Thanks for sharing the video!! :)
Great Episode 👍 Awesome to see one of the sailing channels I follow get involved with the Clipper Race! I'll be joining the race for the last 2 legs starting in Seattle 😊 And I'll be following your journey until then 😉
I guess you stolen the most gorgeous marmaid of the sea, and obvious Capt. Flaco will have twins because he is a skiny great sailor. Are you going to live sea or land life in the future? Blessings from OsoYolo, Antigua Guatemala.
Robyn Knox Johnston was the winner of the first non-stop single handed race, not the first person to sail around the world. His story is very interesting in many ways. He was sailing the oldest and slowest boat, he won because the sailor who was way ahead decided not to finish but continue around the horn again and go to the south pacific. I can't think of his name at the moment. His voyage and boat are also very interesting. Also in that first race was Donald Crowhurst who faked rounding the horn and South Africa while stying in the Atlantic. He kept a log and came to realize his lie would be found out so he took the long dive overboard. His boat was found drifting.
Say hi to the "Sailing Frenchman (UA-cam Channel)" if you meet him From Mike, CaliforniaKayaker. I've been following him far before his involvement with Clippers ATW.
Hi guys, just wondering why are you having the twins in Sweden when we have a perfectly good hospital system here in Australia probably one of the best in the world I don’t understand
Thats a great question. We couldnt get a straight answer out of the Australian Medicare system to whether or not Isabelle would be covered when giving birth in australia. Also if there were complications we would not know how much we would be in for. Hope that answers your question
Congratulations, you two. I hope that you can sail with twin babies, but I'm sure you'll make any calls that need to be maide if things don't go as well for you as we all hope they will! You haven't mentioned what sex(es) they are - at least I didn't hear it if you did mention it. Inquiring minds want to know ... 🙂
Thx for the tour. Good luck with the babies!!! Great times ahead for you two. God bless.
Some very good times cominng Matt! Thanks for watching
So glad to see you both back and smiling !! Made my day
I really wish you all the best . I hope you have a great time in Sweden and that 2 new sailors are healthy.

But Sir Robin Knox Johnston was the first to do it nonstop..
Yay! Good to see you back!
Thanks Dylan. Cheers for watching mate
So good to see you both looking so happy. Waiting patiently to see finished boat before babies arrive.

Sweden is a fine place to have your angels. Best wishes for health.
Thanks for the nice words and for watching Frank
We were out on our boat on the weekend and moored next to your last boat, "Merewether" in Smith Creek near Cottage Point. It still looks good. J
Thats where shes hiding! We've been keeping an eye out for her! Thank you for letting us know
welcome back to YT!

Definitly looking to live on the ocean. These babies are taking their time cooking.
By the way it'll be fun to see you both snow riding... Shredding powder.. or just cruising the groomers. Any snow riding in the near future? ❄️
I wish! Isabelle is not so up for any skiing in her current state. We have some videos in the winter wonderland coming out shortly, Hope you like them
Punte Del Este is across from Buenos Aires. Gorgeous Beaches.

We didn't run into him unfortunately. We'll check out his youtube

Have you discussed names?
My youngest son was a twin; but we lost it just past the 1st trimester. 😢
Congratulations, you two. I hope that you can sail with twin babies, but I'm sure you'll make any calls that need to be maide if things don't go as well for you as we all hope they will!

The sex's are a surpirse!! we wont know unntil the are born. Thank you for the lovely comment!
0:55 Wtf is she drinking wine while pregnant?
Non-alcholic* haha we got it so she wouldn't feel left out
UA-cam has many stories from pregnant female sailors who complain of sea sickness when they otherwise don't suffer from it.
