To all you GWTW fans, I cannot tell you how much Mary Grace and I LOVED having Nikki and Jason on board Ticket to Ride. These 2 wonderful people are very real, very hard workers, and as much fun off camera as on. I was onboard and saw the same fish, weather, sailing and activities that the Wynn’s are bringing to their audience through these videos; however, I am still beyond AMAZED at the images I see in the video and the enjoyment I feel watching for 30 minutes. Thank you all for coming along for the ride. The Wynn’s are what make RUclips the wonderful tool that it is. Keep watching. More fun ahead.
You two are the bomb...thanks for taking the Wynn's onboard with you and giving them the opportunity to create these Masterpiece Videos for the rest of us to enjoy!
I shudder when I think of the amount of camera gear you two have. Just blows my mind. AND the manner in which you use that gear to produce your social media content is mind boggling. Truly exceptional 'vlogging' Mr. n Mrs. W. Stay healthy and stay happy. Many thanks. 😊
you never cease to amaze. You found another boat lover who only wants to share the experience they have found. Kindred spirits. The joy, positive energy, love of life, thank you and your new friends for allowing us to come along on another amazing day on the water.
That footage while diving is amazing!!! Because of an ear issue I’m not supposed to even put my head under water, so that footage allows me to experience the ocean in the wild, instead of an aquarium. Let’s just say, the closest I’ve come to encountering a shark like that was at Ripleys Aquarium downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. There, you walk through a tube that runs through a massive tank. So, the sharks, sea turtles, etc swim by and over you. For me, it’s the next best thing. I too hate that they are held in captivity, but it’s all of these things together that allow me to better understand the world as a whole. So, thanks again for broadening my horizons. ❤❤
My heart has such sympathy for you, to not be able to experience the joy of diving. My wife and I have close to 1,000 dives. You cannot be a diver and not experience such joy, and at the same time such hurt for our planet. In the aquarium you can see in one afternoon what it can take us hundreds, or a lifetime of dives to see. When we go to an aquarium, we relive our dives again. What you don’t see in the aquarium is the pervasive plastic garbage and trash in the ocean. The effects of global warming in coral bleaching and reef population collapse. The effects of pollution. The effects of over harvesting the seas biota. Take joy in these current videos of remote parts of our world. But beware. In our dives, we have seen the effects of Man on our oceans.
@@raynorman5751 I totally get what you are saying about the horrible effects of pollution, etc. I do have to applaud Ripleys in Toronto however, because that is something they take great pains to explain as part of the experience. I think this is one of those places where this message can create the most impact. After all, most plastics do come from the inhabitants of big cities. Enjoy your diving! Tell the fishies that Karen says hi! 😉
Up early each Sunday morning to watch your newest video. The camera nerd is way beyond me. All of your videos are great to me. Just so much to see in the world and not enough time. Your channel and the others I subscribe to help me to appreciate the beauty and wonders of our world. Keep up the good work.
Yes, some get freighters once a year to a small island never mind once a month so they gotta know what you order for a WHOLE year. So when I go grocery shopping I'm grateful for the food supply challenge that I do have, which is NOWHERE near what other places do have. Sending appreciation for remote areas and the challenges of living in remote areas of the world. applause for the strong arm of the sails! I like the left-side rock steady. Great video!
Fun Fact: From the public service announcement, I was actually at game six (final game) of the World Series. Third Base Line 15-20 rows from the field 😎. Awesome!!
You are both in your element. Good to see you on water 💦 You really have to love each other and have an awesome relationship to be stuck on a boat with each other. You have something very special. I realize. I would say God Bless U but he already has.❤❤❤
I liked Niki's choice of lens. The brighter one is more pleasing to my eyes. As I've gotten older, I need the additional light. Fakarava is an exceptional dive location. Thanks to your hosts and you for sharing.
Nauru is in a similar situation as Fakarava, but much worse. They are the world's smallest island state. Less than 20 percent of Nauru's land is suitable for agricultural production, which is because most of Nauru's land was mined for phosphate. This phosphate actually made Nauru the world's richest country at one point in the 80s. But this industry collapsed in the early 2000s because the phosphate ran out. Now they have to rely on Australian aid, getting shipments of canned goods, resulting in an increase in the weight of their people (highest rate in the world), as well as housing an Australian asylum seeker detention centre in exchange for said aid.
This really puts into perspective just how lucky we are in the States are compared to remote places like Fakarava, and we should be thankful regardless for what we have. In McMurdo Station, Antarctica, they get one ship a YEAR for food shipments to the base to feed the researchers. This means because they're stuck with whatever they got from that one shipment, they end up recycling food and serving it as leftovers. That also includes serving expired food because well, when you're in a remote place like Antarctica...an expiration date is just a suggestion. And the researchers need a huge number of calories to work out in harsh temperatures
I just loved how the trigger fish was like, "Hey get out of here!" and then the little fish came in and started to bully the trigger fish. Not sure if you had made a friend or it just likes picking on the big boys!
Great boat. Love the race quality fittings like the rigging. Especially the furler, swivels and using the windward bow to effectively ‘pole the asy back’. If it were my boat I would totally flick the helm seats and the enclosures. You can steer by autopilot so no need for long stints on the helm. A good wet weather jacket is surprisingly effective too. If you really need a seat a small post with some padding would be enough. I think the 44’s closed stern adds extra length that is valuable too.
Aaaaaah ... I miss sailing SO MUCH now! Being disabled isn't always bad. But watching your videos makes me remember what living on the Indian Ocean was like, and how much I miss it.
I felt like I was in a virtual aquarium with all the excellent video footage you shot with the new camera. Fantastic production of showcasing the new DJI Osmo camera and its capabilities! I just might go buy one now!
New to your channel, which was recommended by PS Adventures. I have watched several of your videos and was hooked from the first one I saw. This was one of my favorite videos! The dive footage was incredible. Your videos really make the audience feel like we are right there with you (fun personalities and all) Thank you for sharing your experiences!
I was just telling my gf that this is why I love the Wynn's so much. Here we are learning about sailing and camera polarizers at the same time! Thanks guys!
I enjoyed watching the tropical fish, i felt as though i was watching a saltwater tank and the coral, what more can you say. What a great video thanks, Happy Thanksgiving , Peace.
The South Pacific looks absolutely beautiful.....and what a gorgeous boat. The lighter filter is more natural and more pleasing. The darker filter looks cleaner but darker and anytime you are not in direct sunlight it is too dark. I prefer no filter but if I to use one all the time it would be the 8.
A lovely video, thanks to Frank and Grace for having these two on Ticket to Ride. A beautiful, well set up boat, light air performance is so satisfying. That underwater footage was super.
The way things have been going in civilization these past few years I find myself wishing more and more that I could live this way. If I had the means I’d get on a boat and leave the world behind
It doesnt work out like you might think. Not since covid. Compliance has pretty much destroyed the art of wondering. Cruising around the world legally now will only be possible if you comply to mandates and have much deeper pocket. made by tyranicle governments. Its all over for the freedom loving wonderer.
Yes, YES, yes... absolutely ahhhhhhsome to DIVE back into the ocean with you and see the undersea world! Thank you for taking us along on your adventure to visit the sharks, fish, coral reef, and all the awe-inspiring creatures of the sea. We watched in complete wonderment and awe! And... Ticket To Ride looks like an incredible sailing home, and Mary Grace & Frank wonderful people! Awesome video episode adventure! As always, we are excited to watch all of your adventures!
That's à great little camera. That has spectacular images, above and below. Im amazed you didnt even have lights below. Your hosts look like great people. What a wonderful holiday for you and foretaste of your own boat. I bet you'll be changing some of your design plans after your stay on TTR.
Such a treat to be back in the South Pacific, i miss Hinano Beer, They sell it in California but being in the southeast, I don't travel often. What a lovely couple sharing their lovely Ticket to Ride with you.
That shopping sequence at the beginning of the video reminded me so much of the situation of where I grew up in South America in the 1970s and 1980s. Except that it was trucks on dirt roads. It was not until 1988 that we finally got a paved all-weather road into our community. Rain would cause the road to be closed and trucks would be stuck for days on end, with perishables doing just that: perishing on the truck stuck in the mud! Especially after a rainy spell, the news of a truck with "fresh" produce arriving would spread faster than a wildfire, and you dropped everything to rush to the community store and hope to get some decent produce!
Oh my - this is one of the best episodes yet - just spectacular, guys!!! Thank You for all your hard work, unfailingly optimistic outlook, while not afraid to show the harsher side of things, kindness, honesty and just being dang great people. - LOVE Y’ALL ♥️
As a beginning RUclipsr, I'm using a stone-age era DJI OSMO Mobile with a 2nd gen. iPhone SE. The results are really, really good. DJI makes good stuff, whether it be gimbals, cameras or drones. Big love here.
What a boat. Magnificent. So many good ideas and good solutions. All exuding quality. Impressive. ...also impressive the fit as hell skipper for whatever age he is in, respect. I have to say, seeing this makes me a envy this owner couple. This kind of boat life is another level and leaves a serious positive picture.
You guys are the best! Love the DJI wireless mics. Awesome quality. Will definitely be picking up this kit. Not so sold on the Osmo 3. It lost quite a bit of detail in the shadows on a bright day. The Hero 11 shoots in 10 bit and you can set it to record 'flat' footage so you can pull way more out of the images in post production. For plain action use, the DJI is more than adequate but the graded output from the GoPro is superior (more costly too).
There is a 10 bit update launching next month. Also keep in mind we were using an ND/PL which makes the darks darker. We prefer the DJI colors, but the GP is also a great camera.
As usual guys, a really great video! Just thought you may want to know that it seemed to me that the video in many spots seems slightly lower resolution than some of your videos. Could just be an impression, not sure. Impressive to see the speeds you were sailing at in such light winds!
The opening was fun and funny. Getting your stores right off the big ship. The empty store shelves from all fruits and veggies. By the time the new supply was on the shelf, the shelf was again empty. As for the videos, the darker one for distance and mid-distance shots, but close-up photos of people too dark, use the other one. It's pity there is no fade in/out with different liters on camera. Yeah, you can do it in post. Maybe the jump cut is overall better, you need to try both and see what you like. Please no vertical shots, those are for church steeples only. What great underwater footage!!! Fishy fishy in the sea, how marvelous did God make thee. I have no idea what all that was about changing foresails, but it was seemingly simple and went really fast. You bagged another great one to add to your collection of videos. Frank and Grace are such a delight. Can't wait for next Sunday. Un abbraccio forte a tutti!
Thank you!! I live vicariously through your adventures. I once wanted to be an island doctor on my sailboat but got bent the summer between my first and second years of medical school sustaining a rare spinal cord injury for no apparent reason on my 323rd dive. I hope you carry O2 on your boat with a 100% rebreather. Just sayin. Through you I get to go to all the places that I always wanted to go. By the way did you look at Gunboats?
Having watched the NEEL tri videos and the HH vids, the HH is really set up well. Hoists, drops, and other sailing maneuvers take much less effort despite being a bigger boat. Credit to Frank and Mary Grace for setting up the vessel and sail plan, but the basic "goodness" of the HH design shines through.
It was nice to see such a healthy sea environment. I read somewhere that you can tell if a reefs ecosystem is healthy or not by the amount of sharks there are. An ecosystem that is not well, it cannot support many top of the food chain predators. We can see here that this ecosystem is doing very well. I can see now why this is a favourite dive site, it’s breathtaking beautiful.
I think I have a favorite episode now! The footage from the dive was amazing. The “locals” were fantastic- especially all the sharks. I personally love seeing sharks on my dives. I am seriously considering getting a rebreather just so I can spend even more time underwater. I wools love to be able to cruise the Pacific as you are doing. I grew up listening to my Uncles stories about there time in the Pacific during WW2 and heard a lot of names of places that would make me look up their location on the globe.
So many things I want to say. I agree with Nikki on the polarization. 8 looked best. Under water the DJI had clearer pictures. I preferred it over the Sony. Sorry Jason. I love your hosts, and their love for the Beetles. Funny how they named this boat and at least their last boat after Beetles songs. Their laid back personalities are enjoyable and they are so kind to invite you aboard. It looks like you all get along great. In regard to food, I saw a facebook post a while back of a boat in the Bahamas looking for crew. The unique thing about this boat is that they had a couple cages hanging over the back of the boat with chickens. They allow the chickens to roam the deck sometimes, based on their pictures. I know you don't eat meat, but you do use eggs if I recall properly. If you ever stayed in one place where you weren't crossing borders with agricultural limits, this might be something for you to consider. They indicated that the chicken poop dropping through the cage bottoms attracted fish, so they never had difficulty making a catch. The chickens would share the fish. Additionally, they had quite the garden on board. They had lots of green leafy vegetables, which for the most part grow fast. Onions and garlic would be easy to use the tops and let grow. They could fertilize with chicken poop. Don't know if they used their toilet compost (I would be nervous about that) but with their solar/wind power, watermaker, chickens and garden, they were very self sustaining. These might be things for you to consider when you get your new boat if border crossings aren't too difficult.
Much like Nikki I don't know why I like the 8 better than the 32 but I do, it just looks better to me. The 32 makes the water look blacker and I don't like that. As for the sailing it looks like you're having fun with your friends and now I know why folks want a performance boat, it sails in light winds. I never knew that before. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
I think we were on Fakarava at the same time you were. We came in on the Arinui Cruise/Freighter ship for a short stop on or about October 10. Can't believe our paths crossed that closely.
@10:30 kinda hard to tell since we're only getting 1080 video here on youtube tbh but probably the 32, but it's going to depend on conditions and that might not always be the better choice. The 32 has better sky, the 8 has better water and they both do people pretty middle of the road.
To all you GWTW fans, I cannot tell you how much Mary Grace and I LOVED having Nikki and Jason on board Ticket to Ride. These 2 wonderful people are very real, very hard workers, and as much fun off camera as on.

Frank and Mary-Grace thanks for having them aboard and for sharing your home with all of us
I'd be so jelly if I wasn't so happy for all of you and grateful. Thank you TTR and crew!!
You two are the bomb...thanks for taking the Wynn's onboard with you and giving them the opportunity to create these Masterpiece Videos for the rest of us to enjoy!
Than you for sharing your Toys...⛵
👏👏👏👍✨
Just wanted to give Frank and Mary Grace a huge Thank you 🥂 for taking Nikki and Jason on board for this amazing journey and beautiful content!!

I watch the channel for similar reasons, like having health issues if I had to fly anywhere.
Been there, very cool aquarium
Same here, I haven't been told not to dive. But swimming below about 15 feet, I can tell something isn't right. So I play it on the safe side.
My heart has such sympathy for you, to not be able to experience the joy of diving. My wife and I have close to 1,000 dives. You cannot be a diver and not experience such joy, and at the same time such hurt for our planet.

Fair winds guys xx

Underwater footage with the action camera was spectacular!
thie is my weekly fix, love watching you work together and seeing the places you visit. keep up the great work
That dive sequence was incredible. What a paradise. Thank you so much.

If you use an orange tint on the underwater camera it will make the corals color pop. Great video .
Those headsets are a great idea for sailing
Sweet weather, sweet sailing and sweet diving makes for a most excellent Wynnsday!
The music choices are always top notch, I thoroughly enjoy it. Well done !
Fun Fact:
From the public service announcement, I was actually at game six (final game) of the World Series. Third Base Line 15-20 rows from the field 😎. Awesome!!
Thank you so much TTR & Nikki and Jason for such wonderful content! Really enjoyed. Thank you all for allowing us into your "home & travel".
You are both in your element. Good to see you on water 💦 You really have to love each other and have an awesome relationship to be stuck on a boat with each other. You have something very special. I realize. I would say God Bless U but he already has.❤❤❤
What a lovely video and great diving footage. She looks like a great fun boat to be on. Stay Safe & Fair Winds!!
I liked Niki's choice of lens. The brighter one is more pleasing to my eyes. As I've gotten older, I need the additional light. Fakarava is an exceptional dive location. Thanks to your hosts and you for sharing.
Terrific video kudos to your very generous and knowledgeable hosts. Thank you for showing all that new fangled rigging for the foreails.
Nauru is in a similar situation as Fakarava, but much worse. They are the world's smallest island state. Less than 20 percent of Nauru's land is suitable for agricultural production, which is because most of Nauru's land was mined for phosphate.

Now they have to rely on Australian aid, getting shipments of canned goods, resulting in an increase in the weight of their people (highest rate in the world), as well as housing an Australian asylum seeker detention centre in exchange for said aid.
This really puts into perspective just how lucky we are in the States are compared to remote places like Fakarava, and we should be thankful regardless for what we have. In McMurdo Station, Antarctica, they get one ship a YEAR for food shipments to the base to feed the researchers. This means because they're stuck with whatever they got from that one shipment, they end up recycling food and serving it as leftovers. That also includes serving expired food because well, when you're in a remote place like Antarctica...an expiration date is just a suggestion. And the researchers need a huge number of calories to work out in harsh temperatures
Recycled food to eat? Shit, that’s not nice!
It's organic matter after all...
I just loved how the trigger fish was like, "Hey get out of here!" and then the little fish came in and started to bully the trigger fish. Not sure if you had made a friend or it just likes picking on the big boys!
Great boat. Love the race quality fittings like the rigging. Especially the furler, swivels and using the windward bow to effectively ‘pole the asy back’. If it were my boat I would totally flick the helm seats and the enclosures. You can steer by autopilot so no need for long stints on the helm. A good wet weather jacket is surprisingly effective too. If you really need a seat a small post with some padding would be enough. I think the 44’s closed stern adds extra length that is valuable too.
Aaaaaah ... I miss sailing SO MUCH now!
Being disabled isn't always bad. But watching your videos makes me remember what living on the Indian Ocean was like, and how much I miss it.
Wow, the photography was amazing and beautiful
Wow! Those underwater shots are amazing!
What a beautiful boat!
Franklife and Ticket To ride looks like a great way to travel. What great host you have and to learn more about the boat you're going to get.
Fantastic video. Loved the diving and the camera analysis. Thanks for a great peek into the natural world.
Thanks for the camera information. I always enjoy how you incorporate sponsors into the life. Great job! LOVE that charger!!
I am glad you shoot this everyday life is what it is kind of content. It provides perspective.
I felt like I was in a virtual aquarium with all the excellent video footage you shot with the new camera. Fantastic production of showcasing the new DJI Osmo camera and its capabilities! I just might go buy one now!
A dive is so much better than a hike It’s great to see you two on the and under the water

Welcome aboard! Thanks for being part of our awesome crew. 💙💛💙
I was just telling my gf that this is why I love the Wynn's so much. Here we are learning about sailing and camera polarizers at the same time! Thanks guys!
Looking at these beautiful fish was seeing heavenly colors floating by. It was amazing! Thank you so much for taking and sharing this with us.
Awesome video!
thank you !
This is the best video so far, awesome
That is just a beautiful boat.
Sunday coffee with the Wynns is back and just as strong as ever! Can't wait for your own boat to be splashed.
I enjoyed watching the tropical fish, i felt as though i was watching a saltwater tank and the coral, what more can you say. What a great video thanks, Happy Thanksgiving , Peace.
So awesome to see you guys back on the water!
What an opportunity to lean about setting up your new boat. 😊
I’d rather listen to the sounds from your mini-mic instead of the music. That’s really natures. Love this episode!!
Yet another underwater adventure where I thought there should be an award for this kind of quality footage.
The South Pacific looks absolutely beautiful.....and what a gorgeous boat. The lighter filter is more natural and more pleasing. The darker filter looks cleaner but darker and anytime you are not in direct sunlight it is too dark. I prefer no filter but if I to use one all the time it would be the 8.
I just want to say how lovely it is to see you two again. Love from Auckland New Zealand, Rolanda
Love the camera talk
A lovely video, thanks to Frank and Grace for having these two on Ticket to Ride. A beautiful, well set up boat, light air performance is so satisfying. That underwater footage was super.
Love your underwater work wynns. So good seeing you out there doing it on such a beautiful boat. Thank you
Bucket list-trying at least once, even if on a tiny boat on ghetto local lake. Thank you for showing the magnificent life within the waters. Stunning!
The image quality of the dji units are amazing.
So glad you get to experience these different boats
The way things have been going in civilization these past few years I find myself wishing more and more that I could live this way. If I had the means I’d get on a boat and leave the world behind
It doesnt work out like you might think. Not since covid. Compliance has pretty much destroyed the art of wondering. Cruising around the world legally now will only be possible if you comply to mandates and have much deeper pocket. made by tyranicle governments. Its all over for the freedom loving wonderer.
Yes, YES, yes... absolutely ahhhhhhsome to DIVE back into the ocean with you and see the undersea world! Thank you for taking us along on your adventure to visit the sharks, fish, coral reef, and all the awe-inspiring creatures of the sea. We watched in complete wonderment and awe! And... Ticket To Ride looks like an incredible sailing home, and Mary Grace & Frank wonderful people! Awesome video episode adventure! As always, we are excited to watch all of your adventures!
Been there done it, I feel for you guys. Re-done a 43 Leopard and 410 Lagoon. It took the fun out of cruising after 4 yrs.
That's à great little camera. That has spectacular images, above and below. Im amazed you didnt even have lights below. Your hosts look like great people. What a wonderful holiday for you and foretaste of your own boat. I bet you'll be changing some of your design plans after your stay on TTR.
❤ busy and spunky Trigger Fish footage with Nikki's voice over and Jason's camera gears explanation!
Such a treat to be back in the South Pacific, i miss Hinano Beer, They sell it in California but being in the southeast, I don't travel often. What a lovely couple sharing their lovely Ticket to Ride with you.
That shopping sequence at the beginning of the video reminded me so much of the situation of where I grew up in South America in the 1970s and 1980s. Except that it was trucks on dirt roads.

Especially after a rainy spell, the news of a truck with "fresh" produce arriving would spread faster than a wildfire, and you dropped everything to rush to the community store and hope to get some decent produce!
The contrast ratio was off quite a bit with both filters. Not sure I like them without some more adjustments.
Oh my - this is one of the best episodes yet - just spectacular, guys!!! Thank You for all your hard work, unfailingly optimistic outlook, while not afraid to show the harsher side of things, kindness, honesty and just being dang great people. - LOVE Y’ALL ♥️
Ticket to ride 👌 Cool name, cool couples! Thanks for sharing 😊
As a beginning RUclipsr, I'm using a stone-age era DJI OSMO Mobile with a 2nd gen. iPhone SE. The results are really, really good. DJI makes good stuff, whether it be gimbals, cameras or drones. Big love here.
Best channel ever. Thanks again for making my breakfast fabulous
What a boat. Magnificent. So many good ideas and good solutions. All exuding quality. Impressive. ...also impressive the fit as hell skipper for whatever age he is in, respect.

There is a 10 bit update launching next month. Also keep in mind we were using an ND/PL which makes the darks darker.
We prefer the DJI colors, but the GP is also a great camera.
Amazing underwater footage!
The 8 for sure all the way around, lovely boat.
Really missed you two sailing. You look so much happier on the water
As usual guys, a really great video! Just thought you may want to know that it seemed to me that the video in many spots seems slightly lower resolution than some of your videos. Could just be an impression, not sure. Impressive to see the speeds you were sailing at in such light winds!
You guys have a Great Thanksgiving from us back in the states. Keep up the great work stay safe and always enjoy.
Thanks guys ❤️
So so so glad you are doing this trip.
The opening was fun and funny. Getting your stores right off the big ship. The empty store shelves from all fruits and veggies. By the time the new supply was on the shelf, the shelf was again empty. As for the videos, the darker one for distance and mid-distance shots, but close-up photos of people too dark, use the other one. It's pity there is no fade in/out with different liters on camera. Yeah, you can do it in post. Maybe the jump cut is overall better, you need to try both and see what you like. Please no vertical shots, those are for church steeples only.
What great underwater footage!!! Fishy fishy in the sea, how marvelous did God make thee.
I have no idea what all that was about changing foresails, but it was seemingly simple and went really fast.
You bagged another great one to add to your collection of videos. Frank and Grace are such a delight. Can't wait for next Sunday.
Un abbraccio forte a tutti!
Great camera demo!
OMG next level filmography!
Really enjoyed the video but also the camera comparisons. Your sponsorships are always relevant. Been thinking of getting an action cam.
What amazing beautiful area! Mike from Missouri
Thank you!! I live vicariously through your adventures. I once wanted to be an island doctor on my sailboat but got bent the summer between my first and second years of medical school sustaining a rare spinal cord injury for no apparent reason on my 323rd dive. I hope you carry O2 on your boat with a 100% rebreather. Just sayin. Through you I get to go to all the places that I always wanted to go. By the way did you look at Gunboats?
Thank you! Stunning footage...
Having watched the NEEL tri videos and the HH vids, the HH is really set up well. Hoists, drops, and other sailing maneuvers take much less effort despite being a bigger boat. Credit to Frank and Mary Grace for setting up the vessel and sail plan, but the basic "goodness" of the HH design shines through.
Happy Sunday!!!!!
Fantastic guys, I can’t wait to see your new boat and go on your adventures with you.
8 for sure. I noticed before the argument was discussed how dark it was as the sails came out and blamed the camera. So glad you explained it wasn’t.
It was nice to see such a healthy sea environment. I read somewhere that you can tell if a reefs ecosystem is healthy or not by the amount of sharks there are.
An ecosystem that is not well, it cannot support many top of the food chain predators. We can see here that this ecosystem is doing very well.
I can see now why this is a favourite dive site, it’s breathtaking beautiful.
Stunning footage. Thanks !
I think I have a favorite episode now! The footage from the dive was amazing. The “locals” were fantastic- especially all the sharks. I personally love seeing sharks on my dives. I am seriously considering getting a rebreather just so I can spend even more time underwater.
I wools love to be able to cruise the Pacific as you are doing. I grew up listening to my Uncles stories about there time in the Pacific during WW2 and heard a lot of names of places that would make me look up their location on the globe.
Thanks for taking this 87 year old along for the things that I can no longer do! The motto in our life was to do it all while you can!
Thankyou 👍
So many things I want to say. I agree with Nikki on the polarization. 8 looked best. Under water the DJI had clearer pictures. I preferred it over the Sony. Sorry Jason. I love your hosts, and their love for the Beetles. Funny how they named this boat and at least their last boat after Beetles songs. Their laid back personalities are enjoyable and they are so kind to invite you aboard. It looks like you all get along great. In regard to food, I saw a facebook post a while back of a boat in the Bahamas looking for crew. The unique thing about this boat is that they had a couple cages hanging over the back of the boat with chickens. They allow the chickens to roam the deck sometimes, based on their pictures. I know you don't eat meat, but you do use eggs if I recall properly. If you ever stayed in one place where you weren't crossing borders with agricultural limits, this might be something for you to consider. They indicated that the chicken poop dropping through the cage bottoms attracted fish, so they never had difficulty making a catch. The chickens would share the fish. Additionally, they had quite the garden on board. They had lots of green leafy vegetables, which for the most part grow fast. Onions and garlic would be easy to use the tops and let grow. They could fertilize with chicken poop. Don't know if they used their toilet compost (I would be nervous about that) but with their solar/wind power, watermaker, chickens and garden, they were very self sustaining. These might be things for you to consider when you get your new boat if border crossings aren't too difficult.
Much like Nikki I don't know why I like the 8 better than the 32 but I do, it just looks better to me. The 32 makes the water look blacker and I don't like that. As for the sailing it looks like you're having fun with your friends and now I know why folks want a performance boat, it sails in light winds. I never knew that before. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
That video was memorable, the edit was fantastic, the subject created this sense of yikes brave camera “person” 😊
You’re still the champion of sunsets. So good to see you under sail again.
I think we were on Fakarava at the same time you were. We came in on the Arinui Cruise/Freighter ship for a short stop on or about October 10. Can't believe our paths crossed that closely.
Wow, beautiful place.
Awesome hope you are having the best time.
@10:30 kinda hard to tell since we're only getting 1080 video here on youtube tbh but probably the 32, but it's going to depend on conditions and that might not always be the better choice. The 32 has better sky, the 8 has better water and they both do people pretty middle of the road.
I can't believe that little store is stocking soft drink from my home town, Bundaberg Brewed Drinks!
Thanks for sharing sailing diving and a camera test I will leave it up to you to select the best.
