SAILING FYD ADVENTURES
Австралия
Добавлен 11 янв 2022
We love to adventure, travel as a family & video our journey! We built a giant red camper truck & had some great land adventures but it was hard to juggle the travel & our jobs/business & we found ourselves always driving to the water. Soooo..... after wanting to buy a catamaran & take to the water for years, thinking it wasn't achievable - we took a leap of faith and sold the house & everything we own! We shut down our business & Holly quit her job after years of being miserable at work, taking to the sea for a slower lifestyle & more time with the kids.
Paradise in Indonesia! We arrive at the Kei / Kai Islands. White sand for days! EP 30
After a rough five-day passage, we finally arrive in the stunning Kai Islands-and it’s everything we dreamed of! Crystal-clear water, bright white sand, and the perfect place to unwind. The kids have an absolute blast playing on the beach, soaking in the sunshine and the beauty around us. It’s a much-needed break after the challenges of our journey, but the only downside? We don’t get to stay nearly long enough. Watch as we make the most of our short but magical time in this island paradise! 🌴⛵✨ #SailingLife #KaiIslands #paradise

Our first overseas passage! We sail from Australia to Indonesia EP 28
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.14 дней назад
In this thrilling episode, we set sail from Thursday Island, bound for Indonesia, but things quickly spiral out of control. First, our Starlink dish takes a dive off the boat, leaving us without connection. Then, we're hit with a leak and start taking on water, all while our spinnaker blows in the wind. Feeling a bit out of our depth, we battle through the chaos-but thankfully, our boat proves ...

Another great video guys. You are telling a really interesting story. Keeping it real!
Wooo hooooo!!!!!!!
Fu.k, get away from the chain locker!
What an accomplishment well done guyz 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks buddy!!!
White plastic Drain cover on transom seems to be upside down?
?? Which one? All of our bridge through hull covers face the same way.
@@fyd_adventure3049 hi, the one that seemed to let water in to the ply framed box thingy
@@fyd_adventure3049 it is at 7.10 in the vid
Glad your check-in went okay, looks like you're about set for adventures.
Thanks! It's great to be here. Excited to explore
Well done guys, must be exciting knowing you can cross oceans now. Can't wait to see your adventures in indo :)
Thank you! I wasn't in a rush to do a passage again though!
@ no need to for a while you are in Indonesia- what a dream 🩵
First time viewer. What a great video. You captured the real aspects of the passage. Will be looking forward to to seeing your new adventures as a subscriber. Good job. Trim couch sailor from Adelaide
Thank you!!
This is one of the best RUclips channels I watch and I can’t believe it isn’t viral share and subscribe this channel help these guys grow they deserve it !
Come on guys!! Like and subscribe!!!!!!
Thanks braddles!
Hello. What time of boat is this please?
Perry 43 feet
Yep, Perry 43 - Australian built!
Well done guys. Really enjoying watching your adventures.
Thank you! We're having a blast, glad you're enjoying the journey!
Fabulous private dolphin show!!!!
It was amazing!
Man you look like a young John Bertrand!
Whose that?😂
@ are you serious?
He does!!!
Good job everyone completing this big voyage despite the rough conditions and bad luck. The sea gods need to get their act together. You paid them homage and they didn't do you right. Good thing you had a buddy boat, and the dolphins don't forget their friends. Indonesia has lots of beauty but dangers too, so keep on your game.
It was a rough old ride for sure!!!!
RIP PINK BITS
It was a sad day to see her go!
What an amazing achievement for you guys whole family , your boys will never forget this , always appreciate your videos and positive energy cheers 🤙🙏
Thanks for the positive vibes! It was a great feelnig to have made it across!
RIP , pink bits Thank you for your service. All we need now is a new pink beds. Need some white pointers and some Campbell toes and this video clip would be fantastic. Need more camel toes and white pointers
Hi guys. Great to see a vid come out. Hope you are all safe and enjoying the trip. To be honest I would DEFINITELY had a spare kite that you blew. It’s your bread and butter. And I would ALWAYS take it down overnight as when the conditioner change it when you hit squalls, you don’t want to be pulling down a pain in the arse kite flogging around in the middle of the night in the dark. Always reef before bed. Overnight slow and safe is good and rolling the dice is bad. Just my opinion but one which should keep you safe and sound while the sun is down. Have a safe trip team. Following seas always. Johno. Sydney. Australia 🇦🇺 mate !!! Ps. I have enjoyed the Chanel since a week after you launched it. Time flies. 👍 Edit. Congratulations. You are all doing a fantastic job. Also. Damn. That star link is lucky it’s not in the bottom. Are you using predict wind ?
Thank you :) We generally don't sail at night with a full main or spinnaker, although this one is quite small and very easy to douse in high winds. Regretted not having a back up... Lesson learned! In Aus we use Predict wind, windy & Willy weather - in Indonesia we have so far found that there are NO accurate wind or weather predictions..... but we still check every trip just in case.
Glue used to stick the fibreglass panels together is sika 7110 125 adhesive, the pleasure is all mine
Hey! Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for that boat? I’m in the market and I love the look of yours so was just hoping for a ball park figure of what a boat like that is worth?🙏🏽
@@Trustgreg112 our boat is at the $500,000 mark with upgrades etc. this particular brand is a very solid, world renown quality sailing boat. You could pay 300-600K for a 43 foot boat.. depends on how much work it needs & what brand…
@@fyd_adventure3049thank you )
Those dolphins! 😍
It was amazing!
👍🙂
Enjoy!
#thriving legends!
Not so thriving on the passage!
Hi guys, thanks for taking us to Thursday Island , my father was the original builder of the Thursday island hospital he over-seed the building of the hospital In about 1950, our 10 years before I was born, it probably is not there any more. The white ants 🐜 probably ate it too pieces Anyway, I’ll keep up the good work guys always enjoy the videos Cliff from Logan city Queensland Australia. I’m on the big island
That's awesome! What a cool bit of family history.
Hey guys this is sailing with tom and we left for the Whitsundays from Newport in brisbane and a couple days after we left you guys hopped in our spot at Newport maria
Nice! How was the Whitsundays last year?
@ they were the best
@ it would be cool if we saw you guys there
Not being a knocker but why are you even in this area during Cyclone season. Can I ask what is you cyclone plan. Do you have a weather router to advise you on weather and best course given this time of year. Can you advise if you have insurance and if so what does your insurance company state in relation to cruising here in Cyclone season.
They were in Thursday Island and Cape York in July. This is the right time to be there. Videos are about 6 months behind real time.
@@davidmoran3659 Thanks for that info, now that makes sense. It would be nice to know actual time when these are posted as on my feed this was only posted hours ago.
Actually you will find a lot of people cruise north QLD even during cyclone season. It's quiet & cyclones don't come out of nowhere so it's easy to get away from them if you are paying attention. Most youtube channels are behind - its near impossible to home school, travel & edit whilst keeping up to date. I may have forgotten to put the episode number up. If you watch back we often talk about dates/time in the videos :)
Question, How do you cash flow the trip ????? Well Done on getting out of the 9-5 grind
So far just savings. RUclips is on average only $100 a month & private sponsor/patreon is about $80. Letting youtube take a bit of a backburner right now because it takes so much time away from our family & experiences.
You (the boat) sure looked pretty sailing over the top of Australia behind your flowing genoa. What a big voyage upcoming! May your final preparations go smoothly. ⛵
Thank you! Make sure you watch the passage ep. It might be longer than normal, but hopefully very interesting!
@@fyd_adventure3049 I like long passages. (Assuming they end well!)
I hope you had a safe passage and found some calm water and sleep. I look forward to next week.
Thanks for the well wishes, it was a bit of a tough trip!
Nice bait
Pity there's nothing to catch out here!
Nice footage guys! Heading to Musgrave tomorrow and your video got me a bit more psyched. Just a FYI safety tip, when free diving you don't want to keep the snorkel in your mouth on descent. Take it easy 👍👍
Awesome, you'll have an amazing time!
That was a sweet fishing session lads serial jack killers and perfect plate size black spot cod
We had some awesome catches on this trip!
Good stuff. A Mangrove forest is the best place to fish, because there's so much to discover in there. And it seems you unlocked the secret to catching the big ones, which is to bring Atticus along. (Edit: Of course I'm kidding, Dan. You did manage to bring back a good haul on that first trip.) Enjoy your last week of December.
Atti for the win!!!
It was a hell of a fishing day, boys. Good job. I watched your short, in which I think your youngest was surfing and did a backflip, but I'm unsure. But what struck me, in addition to that, was the Beach Boys' song. That took me back in time. I graduated from the same high school the Beach Boys went to a few years after they graduated. I had a great time in high school surfing the California coast. So, approximately how old am I (LOL)? Keep having fun and sharing Australia. You'll catch that Barramundi.
aaah, mid 60's? I saw some sort of version of the Beach Boys in AUS around 15 years ago. I can't remember which original was there. I'm certain it was Brian Wilson! Love the Beach Boys, Love California - hopefully I'll go back to visit one day.
@@fyd_adventure3049 Ah, mid-seventies. But thanks. Unfortunately, California is not what it used to be. There is massive debt, a homeless problem, and illegal aliens. But it was a fantastic place to grow up. There are still many places that are just as beautiful as ever, it the major cities that are a problem. I moved to the east coast several years ago. Thanks for the note.
Sick
He did so well!
great white.. rah!!
Merry Christmas amazing family and I hope Atticus and Lachlan realise how lucky they are. Our adventures start in the new year. Lots of filming but no idea! Have a beautiful festive season and here’s to 2025 🎉
@@ThriveDailyAu Merry Christmas to you too. I hope your upcoming adventures are full of joy and happiness. Hopefully we catch you on our return trip.
Good fishin', love your beach picnic.
Thank you very much!
Yeah boy!! Catch and cook!!!
It finally happened!
Good thinking: the boys can't complain of being bored when they're asleep. But tough to stay awake so long! Hope you reach a nice peaceful anchorage very soon. Your guest is a good fella but not sure he's well.
Let me add, in case it's unclear to anyone, that my first line above was a joke! Playing of course off the 7:10 - 7:35 convo. 🙂
Hahaha, It would be nice if they were asleep instead of "bored"!
So true!
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲⛵⚓⛵🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Hey guys 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🍻
Heya!!!
