You guys work hard, built up a quality channel and deserve all the rewards for doing so. I appreciate your dedication to your children, and to each other, as well as to us, the viewer for taking us along on your adventure. Merry Christmas Whitaker Family and here's to an even more prosperous, healthy and happy New Year! Smooth Sailing........
Merry Christmas to your family. I always love listening to Keith on his thoughts and opinions. I’m 60, retired 4 years now, we have a 40 acre pleasure horse farm with zero debt. My wife and I worked hard and saved heavy for retirement, raised 2 children. I’m pretty sure Keith and I would get on well. Do your own thing, know how to manage your finances, live within your budget, take responsibility for your own situation. If you don’t like your situation … take responsibility and do something about it.
It looks like you two are looking forward to this new season in your relationship together and we get to follow along. Thanks for the invite. YES YES YES
Watch some of their first vids, it's clear they made a lot of money while still on land before starting to sail. Some wise investments then with whatever was leftover after buying the boat could pay for their lifestyle. When they started UA-cam didn't bring in much for them. Having said that, obv they get a decent cash from UA-cam ads/sponsorships now which I'm sure helps. @@williambeyer5095
@@williambeyer5095 All of it now, however he had to buy the first boat out of pocket. Which was money he made from when he was working and he even went back to work. Although they paid him really well. I'm sure they needed the money or else he wouldn't have done it.
A must see vlog for sailing. It takes a lot of cash to seriously sail. On the other hand the life experiences and education...easily priceless! But only if you get along.
I’ve been going thru withdrawal with Zatara videos. Thinking it’s kinda over. Looking at old videos of the kids. Wow. Time flys by. One day we left it on all day. Husband comes in… are you still watching them. Yes. Really don’t want it to end
Merry Christmas from Clearwater Florida!!! Jeanne and Scott Stark here . I have to say when you’re out there on the water and there’s nothing around think of us OK just please think of us because if you look at the stars in the Milky Way and you’re out there just smile and say God bless Jean I’ve already said God bless the Whittakers! And merry Christmas
Damn has it been that long! I think I came in at about episode 10 when y'all were in Florida trying to fold up a sail! Thank you so much for letting me ride along! Looking forward to next season
Happy Christmas y’all, I have to admit these aren’t my favorite episodes as a I like when Keith is getting down and dirty on projects, but I’m sure other people have interest in this kind of stuff. Cheers from beautiful East Lansing Michigan.
I love your show. My husband told me about your family. Now I watch I every week.❤ Maybe we can come meet you guys. I was in the Navy but it's been years since Ive been on a boat.
The great thing is, you are a business. Probably registered as an LLC, or S Corp, which allows you to write off many of those expenses. Anyone that is considering this type of lifestyle needs a really good accountant. Happy Holidays
They make u pay to use the water lmao people bend over like the spineless jellyfish they have always been so things that shouldn't cost anything more than the gas to go now are for the rich only smh dumb people enable their own demise
Keith and Renee as long as you enjoy what you do spend it you can’t take it with you and hell you guys have gone without before you started sailing working hard and stashing it away so good on ya ….Have a fantastic Christmas and New Year and I’ll see you again out on the big Blue
Hey, guys, I've been falling for about 4 plus years now. And I've enjoyed every minute of it. I've actually watched your kids grow up. Wishing you nothing but the best in the new year love you guys❤
You will always underestimate how much we love you guys! Thanks for all the entertainment and wishing you a Wonderful Christmas. Safe travels, from The Hague in The Netherlands
You're an inspiration to me Keith. For real. I truly respect the man you are and the decision / life path you shifted to. I'm going to do it too my friend. Thank you
Now the key question is “How much can you earn living this lifestyle?” UA-cam, sponsorships etc. But of course it’s really none of our business. Love the channel - Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
It’s more than that though. They have at least one business Blue Water Cruising which adds value for services not to mention a vehicle for business expenses and tax deductions.
@@HamburgerHelperDeath - don’t need to know. Just pointing out the return on investment these wonderful folks have generated by their hard work and skill.
Good job on the report and the insight into what it takes to live aboard for the year! As a boaty it gives me a hopeful perspective one day to try that too.
So envious of this lifestyle...i would do it in a heartbeat but my husband and our child cant and refuse to learn to swim, so im living through yall and your kids
Have safe travels and meeey Christmas, I forgot it was time for the annual Christmas break, I’m also more then excited to hear you guys will be continuing adventure after the boys leave, but I hope they both continue to do adventurous things!
Why you save a bundle is because Keith is so capable of doing most of his own repairs/ replacement, installation of many items. If an owner has to pay for these items, it would add considerably to cost of sailing. Not everyone can fix things like Keith.
The happiest of holidays to you and your family! All year long, you've provided me adventure right from my living room easy chair. Thanks so much.... hope your Atlantic crossing went as expected. See you in the new year ❤
Now you know I get way more takeaways from your youtube videos than your ads (love your ads Renee, btw), but by God if I didn't STOP and REWIND the ad about CleanMyMac just so I could put the part about the clutter up louder for my daughter. This kid is going to make me lose my mind on our boat!
You all are lucky you made it into the Med when you did. Crazy how quickly the world changes and not for the better. Sad that your experience will be hard to replicate anytime soon. Even sadder for the people impacted by the current situation.
Hello, Merry Christmas!, I saw you at D-Marin Zea in Piraeus, Greece in the Police office doing the working papers. Thank you very much for sharing how much you spend? now I am feeling better, bevause no matter what I try always is expensive the most are the boat repairs!!! Regards!!

Hoping ya all made $100k on UA-cam and sponsors. ❤ thank you for this video!!
They're making much more at 20 million views per year. Plus sponsors it's probably closer to 200k😉
@OUTDOORS55 Why don't they have a patreon. Most of the sailing channels make big bank on patreon.

Yeah!!! Not quiting!!! Tell Finn to vlog! We miss him!
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!!! Safe Travels across the ocean! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us!
imagine how hard kieth has worked in his life to build enough wealth to be able to live this lifestyle
Keith is da man. He’s like Yoda but without the green skin or the midget stature and lacking a light saber. But wise.
574K Subscribers are paying for most of it!

You can tell what they make on UA-cam at least in viewer add revenue via socialblade…it’s public info as all channels on UA-cam are
It’s more than that though. They have at least one business Blue Water Cruising which adds value for services not to mention a vehicle for business expenses and tax deductions.
@@HamburgerHelperDeath - don’t need to know. Just pointing out the return on investment these wonderful folks have generated by their hard work and skill.
Thanks for sharing this figures with us. It gives me a much better impression how to afford such a live style.
Merry Christmas to you and your family and good luck with your upcoming crossing.
Merry Christmas to you all, lots of love!
Merry Christmas and all the best for 2024
Thank you all for sharing your adventures with us
Can’t wait to see your new journey in 2024
Merry Christmas. I've enjoyed your program for years. Keep it up.
Merry Christmas to the whole family and a Happy New Year ! See you out there on the water in January. XO
Good job on the report and the insight into what it takes to live aboard for the year!
As a boaty it gives me a hopeful perspective one day to try that too.
*⛄We Hope your Family has a very Merry Christmas and a Safe and Wonderful New Year☃️*
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you and Your Family & Glory if she is still with you guys!
Merry Christmas and much better next year, for you Renne, Keith and all your Kids., Thank you for every episode.

I've been thinking the same thing.
The med will be the same next season
Hello, Merry Christmas!, I saw you at D-Marin Zea in Piraeus, Greece in the Police office doing the working papers. Thank you very much for sharing how much you spend? now I am feeling better, bevause no matter what I try always is expensive the most are the boat repairs!!! Regards!!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year as soon as all the kids are gone you can call it the love boat Have fun and God Bless .
AWESOME! Thanks. Merry Christmas to you all!
Merry Christmas to all!
I can’t imagine life on the boat without the kids…😢
seems Lonely..... yeah Sex 24/7 sounds great for a week after that it's boring unless you bring new women into the picture.....
Happy holidays to all of you.
Happy Holidays!
I always look forward to these finance update videos!
That is awesome news. Hope the whole family has a wonderful and merry Christmas and new year.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all aboard Zatara . Enjoy your down time and enjoy your family and friends.
