25 degrees and snowing here.....really enjoying this episode!
Love your comment about getting your priorities straight...
We DEFINITELY look forward to welcoming Laura the Nurse! Thanks for a great elephant on this vid!
and the rest is history... LOL.
I have watched almost every one of your videos, Bob, and have to say that this was probably my favorite. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us who are unable to go at this time.
+daleportorford hey thanks so much! I've really been trying to up my production value lately! Great to hear!
Bobby my friend you are a lucky man! I'd give anything to see the stuff you have seen...
14:41+
BOBBY YOU HAVE REAL JOY ON YOUR FACE IN THIS SCENE !!!
What a messed up bunch of nay Sayers writing in on this one. I enjoy Bobby's video's and think the wife and I may go to Thailand soon as it is so beautiful. We really would not have even checked it out if it was not for Bobby's video's, so hats off to you Bobby and thank you! I think you promoted Thailand and your experiences pretty well. As to the pricks writing the bad stuff here, I wish people would respect America also, speak our language, respect OUR culture, obey our laws, and not burn our flag! I think your OK from one Bobby sailor to another. Rock ON and Fair winds my friend.
Amazing Bobby, absolutely smitten with the elephant, that would be an unforgettable experience for me....they are incredible animals!! And Thailand, gorgeous!! 👍😀❤❤❤
WHEN THE BABY ELEPHANT SPRAYED YOU AND YOUR REACTION , IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE VIDEO !!! 🌎🤗
WOW, what an awesome video Bobby. One my top 5 favorite videos from Sailing Doodles. Nice Job Sir!
Great video Bobby. You rock the dream. All I could think when I saw you with the elephant was I hope the elephant grows to have as thick skin as you. You do well my friend.
Now if you could only adopt that cute elephant and keep him on board! wow!
+Bob Fox haha he is already way too big!
But your popularity would explode over the top as #1 - lol

Sailing with Elephants! - Doodlephants?
What a magnificent place. Putting that on the list for places to go.
White Sands beach was one of my favourite places on earth...We stayed in a little beach hut and we were right next to a bar and didn't have to leave our porch to order drinks and food....and I'm from the UK but actually live in Thailand.
Excellent. Loving it. Not Jealous at all !
Absolutely Gorgeous. I must watch this again! Thanks!
Oh my giddy god mother, the comments below, this is why the world is so f....d up! I follow the kiss moto - keep it simple simon/ sally.
Don’t overthink it, just enjoy & just let it be, why complicate life anymore, it’s hard enough at times.. we need more laughter, love, & compassion & sailing in our lives or whatever spins your wheels & makes you happy!
Keep up the good work Bobby, I as a female have always preferred Bobby’s narration, intellect, & his beautiful dogs, I love the way he pops in & out of his family home & his straight up in a measured way.. I didn’t see that he put himself first over anyone else, actually the opposite, he was very caring & protective over Megan, especially when she was learning to snorkel.. Go live that dream bobby & you will attract what you give out..
Soak up the sunshine Sailor & don’t absorb the shit pile people have left behind⛵️🌎🛩
That was great! LOVED THE ELEPHANT.
Great job with the video. You're getting better and better with each one.
Wow ... the beaches are incredible. The staff and support people are very welcoming and inviting. Smart and they get it. Unlike the Bahamas its affordable.
Great Job Bob........ its Beautiful there
Bobby, your videography gets better each and every time. Of course the scenery is beautiful so that helps immensely. You seem to know how to blend the drone video expertly with your hand held gimbal footage. Well done. You have changed my unsubstantiated opinion of Thailand literally single handedly. I would love to visit now. I respect what the animal rights activists have to say about the adolescent elephant and its treatment and suspect you weren't expecting such blow-back on the subject. It is obvious that you love creatures and wouldn't intentionally do any thing to bring harm to them. Best of luck to you on the White Squall and looking forward to seeing your next installment.
great how you tell the cost of everything (as so few do)
I love that part of the vlogs, especially when he gripes about money stuff.
On the beach Is special!
Those taxis are called a Baht bus. I used to ride one everyday.
Good video about the Thai people.
+Randall Murphree yeah they are some of the friendliest people I have met. What a lovely country!
Wow Thailand is beautiful!!! great video Bob.
Very beautiful scenery, keep it going Bob
Man it just hit me, Kim is an older version of Megan. Nice smile, good looking lady that also seems so genuine.
Nice video. You made good use of the drone in a beautiful place. Fun swimming with the little elephant.
Another great video. I'd never considered Thailand as a vacation destination but I would love it there. Also, I'm sorry you have such a sour bunch of followers. Please remember that with tens of thousands of people subscribed, the pessimistic and jealous and petty people will certainly be the loudest. That doesn't mean they are the majority. Keep up the great videos!
Bob, great video as usual. Thanks!
oK, I've been holding off on sharing this comment for a very long time. I really am sorry to have to tell you This Bob. I'm JEALOUS! very,very JEALOUS of You!! Ok having gotten that out of the way. AWESOME VIDEO! very possibly my favorite thus far. Thanx for the share. : )
@ A Rottie, Yup. same,same.
+A Rottie wow thank you so much! Glad to hear that you are enjoying the videos. I'm still learning how to make better content!
Great video Bobz, thanks man!
Great video. Thanks.
AWESOME news.
Nice video. i do have reservations about the elephant. I have heard stories on how they can be mistreated.
Shame you can't eat them, the y are really tasty.
Totally Awesome!
As usual nice video Bob, it was as if I was there myself I really enjoyed the video's that you take with the drone !!!
I think once Laura gets on the boat, you're gonna have a great time sailing, you're both find your rhythm, and have a great time sailing together !!!
Great video Bobby, your doing what most of us only dream of doing. Love your channel well done 👍
That was one Awesome video...
I was hoping the baby elephant would make a break for it!!!🇨🇦
I enjoy this channel so damn much! Thanks Bobby!!
One of your best videos Bobby 👍👍👍
+Dave C hey thanks so much Dave!
Nice trip bob!
Nice places
Best video yet.. especially when the baby elephant pwn'd you..lol
wow very nice video
Darn it. Now I have to go to Thailand! Great video!
Skip Phuket, Krabi, and Phi Phi if you want to avoid the crowds. Phi Phi is beautiful though.
Sounds like your crew
what place was $10 per night with the elephants in the water with you? curious to know that info for myself and some friends please Bobby. great videos and love the drone footage.
At 6:25 .... these look like the bungalows they filmed part of the movie The BEACH at. Before they followed the map and found the drug island.
Oh yeah, I know what you're talking about.
$30.00 to swim with an elephant?!?!?!?! Worth a LOT more than that.......;-)
“spartan” lifestyle? LMAO!
Do a meet and greet in Seattle. Me and Bret fields would come
Yeah...swimming with the elephant was a the coolest! PEACE OUT!
Dude, Elephants have a social and family structure nearly identical to ours. In that area of the world, they are treated worse than slaves. NEVER give a human money for an elephant experience. NEVER NEVER NEVER
I know. I was wondering where his mama was & hoping he wouldn't get stuck or sink in the ocean. If he gets stuck, there's no way to get him out 😢
Tom Mesch 👍
Not really. Elephant social structure is matriarchal.
sadly gulf charters closed, website is for sale
Bobby being a woman I'm wishing you'd rethink the hair. Isn't it time for a grownup haircut your not a doodle !!! That was a great adventure. Sure was a nice place with nice people an the elephant wasn't bad either. I think I could stay there forever ! Sunsets to die for and the sand is so white.You did a great job on the videos. Thank you for all your hard work. The drone footage was fantastic you killed it. It's hard to be away from my dog so you must really miss the boys. Oh and next time you leave don't be such a chump turn around and give Mom a kiss goodbye on camera ! It makes you more human not less. And woman love a sweet guy ! Well can't wait to see you on the new boat. Cheers
Semplicità is the secret today
I lost a good pair of boat shoes at that restaurant :-( Hey, you know who else would have loved swimming with the elephant?
As Grandpa says " My butt in the sand, A beer in my hand and A pretty young honey by my side !!!
It’s ok cabanas! But if you don’t bring some food to cabanas YOU can be the food for the rats 😂
At the end of the day the elephant is on chains...
Like the second restaurant better. Out of all the places the past few years you have been while sailing what is the best spot with the clearest water to snorkel and scuba. The Caribbean or Asia. Which beach area you like best.
Shame you can't eat them, the y are really tasty.
As you lock your dog in a cage while you go to work....
@@Aaronhoffmanphotography some people never seem to get that.
What are you going to do with your boat
Bob, A little drone footage goes a long way.
I have read a lot of stories of elephants being mistreated so they can be trained to do tricks for money. They even have elephants that can paint. A young elephant like that should be with its family or reintroduced to a new herd and not being doing tricks like this. Have you looked into this some more?
What happened to Megan?
I lived in a Grass Hut for a year with AC! Never saw a Rat! Lots of cats?
The last part was mine !!!
Where is Laura ?
Why would he even think about showing the elephant like its a cute positive attraction in Thailand....
what's the new boat's name?
White Squall
Where are the girls?
what kind of drone do you use?
+Danny Moss for the Thailand videos it was a dji spark. It's an excellent travel drone but I would go for something a little more robust for flying off the boat
the swimming with the elephants was incredible...thanks for sharing.. love your vids
Trick with a drone is knowing how much to use it (footage), what to use it for and not using it just to lengthen or fill an otherwise no reason video. Some seem that their whole video is just drone views of the same area over and over rather than using it to help tell and complete the story. I think you do a pretty good job of balancing, Bob.
thank you for the info
You never walked with a elephant, I married one kind of look like the one on the beach but his ears are too big.
They get abuse by there owner. Where the mother of that little one is sad.
You call your life spartian, I call you one of the luckyst men in the world !!! You didn't say that for that month living on the beach about all of the beautiful young tiny bikini wearing women !!!
Bob, love following your exploits and adventures, however having seen how well you care for and treat your dogs, (something I genuinely respect in you), I have to voice my concern regarding the elephant. I’ve travelled from my home in Ireland to Thailand on numerous occasions, (Most recently last March), and also from Vietnam when I lived there for several years to assist in the rehabilitation of elephants. There are essentially two types of organizations in Thailand which present elephants to the public, the first being profit making businesses which beat elephants into submission. Research RUclips ‘Elephant crushing’. I believe that young elephant was probably a victim of this, it bowing as a gesture of thanks for the food is nothing but a gimmick which an elephant is trained to do to ‘entertain’ tourists. It is not a natural trait of an animal such as an elephant. Of course the fact that there was a charge of $30 to interact with the elephant is the profit part of the business. Riding elephants is also part of this abusive business. The 2nd type of organization in Thailand which deals with elephants is the elephant rescue/refuge type which pick up the pieces after aforementioned businesses have made their money from animal abuse. I disagree with commentators who use the word ‘Cute’ to describe the actions of the elephant. Similar phrases are used to describe dolphins who pull tourists around swimming pools and ‘pose’ for photographs at ‘Swim with dolphin’ businesses. One only needs to research ‘Taiji, Japan’ to see where these dolphins are taken from , and how they’re trained. Again, nothing cute about what occurs to those dolphins. I’ve been to Taiji to observe and document the cruelty and savagery that occurs towards dolphins. Perhaps reconsider promoting this type of activity in the future, or at least promote and highlight what great work the genuine elephant rescue centers are doing?
Well said. That is exactly why I won't visit Thailand. I cannot spend my tourist dollars where animal cruelty is accepted. Just about every animal show involves mistreated animals, including the USA.
Exactly how is it different to see an elephant with its leg in a chain than when you see a horse with a bridle in its mouth? Do you think the horse planned its life to be harnessed in that way any more than the elephant? Do you have any understanding of what a bridle does in the mouth of a horse? Do you think a horse WANTS to be bridled? Why does a horse have to be "BROKEN"? Take a look at the mouthpiece of a horse bridle. It is a steel half-loop that puts pressure on the roof of the horse's mouth when you pull on it. Do you think this is something the horse wants any more than the elephant wants chains on its legs? Your comment seems to be about quantity of creatures on the Earth, and not about treatment of those creatures; We got plenty of horses, and not enough elephants in the world. Maybe you never thought about it but there are thousands of creatures that you, and "everyone else", will defend to the death to be protected, while ignoring thousands of others which are being treated even worse than the ones you attempt to defend. I know thinking is difficult, but seriously, should there be horse racing? Should there be dog breeding? Should there be affirmative action?
Bobby should educate himself before leaving the good ole U.S. of A.While in Thailand never ever give money or even take an interest in the traders of "animal tourism", hell even the government is trying to stamp it out.
Great response and hopefully he will re edit the video and do a video on elephant rescue places that try to help the animals and not train them to do tricks for money.
I am guessing you aren't an American. 40 years of Affirmative Action in America has turned it into a Socialist disaster. Perhaps you aren't aware of how favoring people of "race" over people of ABILITY when considering employees has adversely effected the very operational ability of the United States of America. Oh, and it is about to destroy all of Western Europe. Here is a tiny lesson for you from the words I wrote previously, I hope you can comprehend this.
Horses have been forced into slavery since the beginning of time, and they don't understand that they are slaves: They aren't smart enough to know that the bit in their mouth has made them a slave to the creature that controls the bridle. - Most men aren't smart enough to know that the GOV that controls every aspect of their life is controlled by just a few MEN, who want to control ALL people, and are willing to kill most of them to force all those left over to worship them. They do this by promoting the least able, but most socially acceptable into positions of power.
Duh, You are one of the horses with a bit in your mouth, and you answer to every pull on your masters' tug at your bridle.Do you really think millions of low IQ brownskin people invading Europe will advance mankind? Eventually, there will be a revolt from the White "race" to save humanity from destruction by the "outsiders".Afterall, White people DID create all of western civilization, and they will eventually TAKE IT BACK.
I miss Megan

I can't believe how cheap it is over there I should go retire over there I'd be a wealthy man over there
+Kevin Rhoads a lot of people do. They make it pretty easy to get a retirement visa
I started watching your channel at season 4 and decided to go back to the beginning. I think what you have done with your life is pretty impressive and you have my respect. But to say you live a spartan life style is a bit disingenuous don't you think? I have seen some pretty lavish purchases and trips to Walmart where you did not scrimp much like you did in the beginning - not to mention the plane tickets and camera hardware drones, etc. Spartan...I hardly think so. Give respect to your Patreon members man who are funding your not so spartan like style. Just saying. I will keep watching though. I mean who doesn't like hot women.
the harmonica music over you talking is distracting tbh.
A lot of youtubers feel it is a necessity to have music all of the time. It isn't good at all. I wish they would all do away with it for the oral parts and then leave the rest for the aural. Even tv shows do it and it really is annoying.
Better bood thailand now good this raum thailand soviso cacao and dogs attention essa made in Taiwan ok good for vidéos sailing Doodle éléphant now problème this for éléphant swiming simple
you need Megan back
Bring back Megan.
Where is Laura ?
