14:04 Beautiful .. loved to see just humans being humans. Made me cry.. helping one another... no one judging another.. Realizing you both live different lives.. it's human to love and help. Take notes.
Wonderful video once again! As we celebrate Christmas today around this beautiful planet, one thing I have found true is the observation that most people who live the simplest lives, often have the strongest faith in God. My wife and I grew up on opposites sides of the Earth, yet met in University as medical researchers. We have spent our entire adult life (retired now) amongst internationals. As scientists we have spent our careers following the science for facts. One thing we could never deny was the fact that the overwhelming majority of happy and content people we have encountered in our lives are those who have faith in God. We in the "West" often think we have "all the answers" and can control the destiny of our lives, yet often times what we discover is a void that longs to be filled. We believe we know how the universe started, yet we cannot understand how something came into existence from "nothing", yet it did. So, show me "god"? Perhaps we're looking too hard for "Him" when He is right in front of us......Didn't mean to "preach", yet today as we celebrate Christmas around the world, I hope everyone can find the ultimate purpose in life that comes with an inner peace so many have found outside the material world. Merry Christmas.
Just happened upon you channel and literally fell in love with it. My dad always liked sailing, he purchased a 40 foot sloop and wanted to do the great circle but sadly passed prior to that realization. You look like great folks and will follow your adventures for sure on your channel. One thing I noticed was that the adults barely wear life vests, please at least one wear one, those kiddos are beautiful and need you. Lost a friend here in Florida to drowning, he was ripped with muscle, great shape, could out swim a dolphin (not literally) but drowned in a lake, yes a lake from falling overboard from a canoe. Apparently he got dehydrated to the point that he passed out when he stood quickly, fell in and authorities found him the next day. No wind, rough water, speed or anything, just plain dehydration. Well, just an observation, love the channel and subscribed to follow along.
Well I was surfing alone these days and, got panicked about fainting from anxiety in the middle of the sea, I went out of the water very fast and nervous. Got a little bit sad bc I wasn’t sure if I was going to have the courage to fight these bad thoughts and comeback to the water to do what I love which is surfing… seeing this video I got the answer, I belong to the sea, there is where I want to be. I’ll comeback to the sea this weekend and fight my anxiety and bad thoughts about a place that makes me so good.
@@BrianShaneRushton Yess! Twice this week, with my friends who makes me feel safe. I still have bad thoughts and stuff but that's something I need to work, deal with my anxiety... Thanks for asking :)
@@BirdaeBlue thank you, we can do anything if we commit ourselves to… the same power our mind has to give us fear, it has the same power to give us strength
I missed you last week!! (Glad you're feeling better!) Now - it feels more like Christmas! Merry Christmas Ben, Ashley, Willa, Bodhi (and bunny). Thank you for all the wonderful adventures this past year. Stay safe - but please - just keep being you and doing what you do - for all of us!
You are truly our favorite sailing channel! You have been places and done things that most never will. You don't put yourselves above anyone as far a being the common human being. We would never have experienced what we do except through your channel. It's all so amazing! Thank you and Merry Christmas from Tim and Tammie Miller
Merry Christmas Nahoa family from Kershaw South Carolina USA! May your travels be safe. Thank you for sharing your travels and your family with us. You brought a tear to my eyes in this one. Thank you.
Thank you for the peaceful music. So many other channels fill our ears with noisy, distracting unpleasant music that never fits the scenes. I love the natural sounds and the peaceful music you chose ❤️
Madagascar seems like a fascinating place. We are glad that you are having some opportunities to see the land and the people. Merry Christmas from Albuquerque, New Mexico! Safe travels.
Blessed are you and your wife: I admire your generosity and kindness in helping humanity, those that are really far away, out of reach, you have open your beautiful HEART to give gifts of value that will assist them!
Excellent video! In 1980 I was at Gibraltar having lunch and chatting with a couple in their late 60's who'd been sailing for 7 years at that time. They said people ought to take the time off to do that early enough. All through the years since I wonder about them and how their travels went, and the boat might still be around somewhere.
I really needed this video today. Without getting into it, you pretty much said near the outro. Its easy to get lost , but in your own head is the worst place to do so. Thank you for putting it in to perspective. I watch all your videos and love watching the journey.
You can really tell from those islanders that the original Malagasies are descended from Austronesian voyagers. I recognized masts and sails that are still very similar to Polynesian designs.
What an appropriate day to upload some reality. As we're inundated with Christmas gifts under the tree, what a reality check with what's important in life. We just got through blizzard winter weather, and complaining...yet...we're warm and have all the comforts life has to offer. Merry Christmas to all!
The Conch Shell they gave you was a “Tiger Conch” I believe. They’re a lot more rare than any of the other’s from what I’ve seen diving, but they didn’t seem to taste any different.
Relieved you have recovered from your sickness. Don't over do it now! Another fantastc video, love your productions and content. Wish you season greetings and good wishes for your good health and continuing adventures. Thankyou.
Reasons why I love Nahoa: 1) best sense of irony, 2) highest combined IQ of any sailing channel, 3) not nerds, 4) no pretending or fake added narrative!
Such a moving episode. Nahoa always delivers on the real world experiences. That’s what I truly love. Happy Holidays and I’m glad you are feeling better! ❤
Recent studies have shown wild caught fishes are so toxic they actually are not worth eating. We might as well jsut focus on farm fishing. Give nature the chance to recuperate and not eat all the micro plastics and toxins
That black “paint” looks like maybe it was that Flex Seal stuff but it probably is tar. And you know what? Me and my dad use Flex Seal for everything while out on the lake or sea. If i could come visit these folks, i would give them buckets of this stuff. Its a miracle. Fixes everything AND protects it also.
There's a RUclipsr who travels power boats usually out of Australia and has gotten stuck on a Sand Spit at least once for quite a while (his boat was cracked badly) . He and his girl friend had a challenging experience to say the least. One of the thing these types of tribes do is take Turtles. That is sad. The boats there were quite unique and usually quite small 100 percent sailed. Very few motors. They also have races. Some parts have more sailing tourists than others , but all must watch out for smash/grab stuff even though it is rare, it happens. Huge oil damage to part of the coast. As I said, Delos spent a ton of time at Nosey Bee. (sp) ? I think the most unique boats were in Indonesia ! And you showed us a ton about those boats, I'll not forget that !
It was very interesting how on such a small island/sandspit the locals are painting/repairing there boat as we do carry spare parts glue and paint etc to repair our boat. No different. Just living with the elements and what you have. Great to see. Thank you Cheers and enjoy
I just want to point out the first fisherman caught his gift of fish hooks and moved aside so the other friend cold get his gift of fish hooks. 🙂 Terrific video🙂 I have that same cameo seashell.🐚
I miss my boat's, with I had seen more dvds but never happened in early 80's.. A shipwright told me my Roberts 24ft was perfect.. Lived an cruised it for 4 years in Oz
You have no idea the snow we all had on the PNW! Finally heated up enough to melt the ice and snow…over a foot! WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER! Cheers from White Rock BC…🍻
I haven’t seen a large conch in a while, my oldest brother that I miss dearly used to take me swimming, I can vividly remember looking through water clearer than glass ! Respect these oceans, probably wouldn’t be anything without them
658th desktop shipmate LIKE, already 3.4K+ Christmas Day views?! And you're doing THAT?! "Civilization? - See ya!!" Actually, it still looks like civilization... just a different flavor, perspective, and experience.
It's absolutely incredible to see how other humans live. And how they've lived for generations!!! It's amazing to think that at this moment, I'm in the middle of the forest in central Florida and there are people that are on an island off the coast of Madagascar as I type this!!! An absolutely beautiful thought!! Happy healthy new year to all🤘🤘💪💪🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The people on the islands of Madagascar and other areas like that are so interesting. We never learn about these people in school in the West, just a fleeting mention. It's such an intriguing and unique way of life.
Hey Guys, Merry Christmas to you all. I'm having a Balance Catamaran built in Cape Town. Splash is July 2023. I'll be sailing North up the Madagascar coast. Can you tell me what cruising guides and charts you used for the area. Is there anything in particular I need to watch out for? Safe travels to you and your family.
It’d be cool if you could somehow do a movie projector onto a sail. They could come out on their boats and watch a movie out on the water. Idk. Just a thought. It’d have to be the right people and right situation. But I bet they’d love it.
I see Ben that you practiced your narrative voicing today,good job.have a wonderful holiday and safe travels.hope Santa is good to your wonderful family.
Merry Christmas my fellow BC ers !! You are inspiring to watch and see the caring you have for the people you meet. Total strangers, but as sincere as ever in offering everything or anything that you have that they could use or need 👏merry Christmas and be grateful you were not here last week 🤦♂️☃️ cold and white !! 👍🏼🥰😉
Thank God i found you guys again! It's been a long time searching ur youtube channel cuz i forgot what it is...last video i watch was u guys fixing ur boat🥰
You're showing how little they've got but those guys live on that sandbank. They're from the mainland or an island off the mainland and just use the sandbank as a fishing stop to repair boats and gear surely.
You guys should cook up a couple of batches of sugared pancake batter, you could make 50 pancakes in an hour. You can add coconut, coco, nuts mixed fruit, or cooked apples. To make fifty pancakes, 5 cups flour, baking powder, powerd milk, tinned milk, or fresh milk 600 ml, 3 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 cup fine sugar, add water for pancake consistency
Dear Ben, Ashley, Willa & Bodhi. So glad to see you are all healthy and safe. The surf shark ad was great and you must be back in Canada. Your videos just constantly reset my life as to what & who is important. It also reminds me to be grateful for my many blessings and how to give away and don't buy excess. Had a severe migraine at 2am (spinning, vomiting, nausea, headache). Went to the ER. They did labs, IV (support meds, fluids) and a Cat Scan. As I was feeling so awful on the gurney, I actually thought about you and your family. What if this happened at Sea or a place that had no healthcare. I'm going to have to remain a Land Dweller outside of urban areas. 🥴. This group of people, I look at their living conditions and their opportunities in 2022 are still limited. Then we see homeless in America in similar conditions surrounded by opportunity and resources. So complex. Someday, please do the photo journal books of your adventures like those Art books that sit on people's coffee table. Sometimes, us Land people like to sit while sipping our coffee before beautiful photos to remind us about how fortunate we are and to learn how other cultures live and love each other! Merry Christmas🎄. Thank you for the blessings of your travels and stories.
Lucky to meet such a nice people of Madagascar remote tribe.. there is Indian remote tribe dont enter strangers to stopping bye even their own gov.. Hope you could find experience by visiting my place the largest archipelago.. My greeting from Banggai Island Central Sulawesi Indonesia
A great episode ! And did I already mention, that you have great kids ? Nice stay in South Africa! Lord Jesus Christ bless, save and protect you on your journeys.
"ended up sinking" Someone should invent an umbrella plug. You poke it through a hole (and through the in-gushing water). When you unfold it, it completely covers the hole, and seals it. Add threads for drawing it tight against the outer surface of the hull.
Funny you should say; "we men don't need gloves, we have calices". Those lines can and often do, slice through skin which is why it is advisable to wear protective gloves. You should hire the fella who is on this week's episode of Parly Revival (December 25th broadcast). He seems to have the magic touch, a yellow tuna and a sailfish all in the same day !!! LOL

16:17 - now, THAT's 'remote'. What an amazing episode - one you won't soon forget.
It’s great to see all three generations of a family sailing!! So inspirational! Enjoy guys!
I wasn't sure if the sailors are a bf/gf, but when you mentioned three generations it makes more sense.
He literally said my wife , good try
True adventure sailing with such empathy and humility. Very special.

More sailing channels should reveal some of the things they see with regards to living conditions. Eye opening for most.
Thank God i found you guys again! It's been a long time searching ur youtube channel cuz i forgot what it is...last video i watch was u guys fixing ur boat🥰
you can use jumper cables and attach them to the shrouds and put the ends in the water and if you are hit it goes in the water not in the hull.
always keep safe our good sailors continue sharing the good experience thanks for the informative lessons
Thanks!
merry xmas 2 u all..what a childhood ur kids will tell their kids..pure awesomenss
Happy New year from the UK. It does put in to perspective how grateful we should all be. They didn't seem to have water either . Thanks for sharing.

No man is a nosy.
Madagascar has such special nature it’s well worth to take a few tours.

Do you have a fish finder that can help you see if it’s sand or rock or coral bommies on the bottom ?
"ended up sinking" Someone should invent an umbrella plug. You poke it through a hole (and through the in-gushing water). When you unfold it, it completely covers the hole, and seals it. Add threads for drawing it tight against the outer surface of the hull.
