The reason we Colombians have a military post on Malpelo is first of all, it is Colombian territory but more recently we have Chinese fishing trawlers in our waters decimating the shark population. Best of luck on your journey.
Possibly one of your best episodes (I've seen them all). Your dialogue about harvesting the fish with your tiny tots was a bit odd at first, and then I got it. My wife actually said...."Canadians Rock!". A lot of honesty and shy on the BS.
Couldn't agree with you more. Teaching our kids fish doesn't come from a packet and how to feed themselves is life 101 and is always overlooked or ignored by modern city folk. Well done and thank you for sharing your lives with us. Can't wait to see you out there one day.
Almost went there with my uncle. He took me and my cousin on a military boat when we were 8-9 to the pacific, we were scheduled to go to malpelo but plans changed. Wish I had seen it... FYI due to problems with other countries trying to take over territory, colombia maintains a permanent little outpost on every little island they own. This happens in the caribbean side as well.
Theres also the illegal over fishing fleets from the other side of the Pacific .. that need monitoring. 👍🏼🧙🏻♂️🇬🇧 Many miles out into the Adlantic Britain holds soverenty over a small rocky peak called Rockwall ... but its impossible to inhabit it, just it extends the economic territorial zone by the extra 200 miles radius. 🧙🏻♂️
I spent 5 years at the Rock as a diving expedition ship captain. We used to call it Mordor like from Lord of the Rings. Weather get wild there sometimes.
Love, love, love these out of the way area's, there is such a feeling of mystery and a feeling of being somewhere where it might not be ok to be, but then here comes the park ranger dude in his boat to say welcome, yes, you can snorkel but watch out for the big sharks and as you mention that, here comes the supersized dolphins. Yes, everything's bigger in Malpelo!!! Thank you so much for taking us along for the ride!
Hi guys , just came across your channel recently and absolutely loving it, thankyou.. watching from N.Ireland , what a beautiful experience you are all having , safe travels ❤🇮🇪
Malpelo has some of the very best diving in the Pacific. Along with Cocos and the Galapagos this is part of a superhighway traveled by large schools of scalloped hammerheads...
I am an American and have spent years in Colombia, on and off. I will be applying for my residency as I recently retired! These guys were a great example of how polite and friendly the Colombian people are and how well they treat (legitimate) guests. Saludos from Bogota. I am right by El Campin if you know where that is
@@julianandresful Thank you Maam. I now live in Bogota, (Campin) and the people are so great, I cant tell you. Colombia is a huge country and I still wish to explore much more. Boyaca for the future. Thank you for your kind words and Dios te Bendiga!
@@julianandresful Well thank you Ma'am! I say this in English so other readers will understand it. I grew up in a place called Vermont (Vert Mont...its French for Green Mountains) in a small town. Campesino in the city here lol. You take care Ma'am. And sorry if I am getting that wrong I saw Juliana, but its Julian (and dresful) and if I got that wrong, my sincere apologies
Love you guys! I'm with Ashley. We may not be on the menu for large sharks, but if they get curious and take a nibble they can cause a lot of damage. Better to not risk it. Safe travels. ❤
Ashley as a 50yr woman who grew up without social media. I appreciate what you did in this video for Willa. One day, she will thank you! I'm glad you guys are safely traveling the Pacific Ocean 🩷 safe sailing!
9:04 its good you switched over to smaller hooks for the Eccosystem too. Alot of people dont understand that you actually want the smaller fish, the big ones are the ones spawning eggs after all... not to mention if you fish out the larger ones you are killing the ones with the genes to grow large.
I have been to Malpelo !! I Did an underwater documentary for the Columbian Government on an expedition there years ago for a week...it is certainly out in the middle of nowhere !!!. Glad you were able to see it which is very special and yes, they have some very, very big sharks there :-)
fascinating watching you preparing that small Tuna for dinner. Your young guy was totally immersed in the whole process. dinner never tasted any better . Oranges direct off the tree have a more wholesome flavor to the supermarket versions .
Malpedo Island, home to a huge colony of Nazca boobies, three species of lizards, one unique species of land crabs and the waters around it are very popular with numerous species of fish (hammerhead sharks in particular who call this place home), It is a great diving spot.
seeing the size comparison of the building on the island rock indicated how big the rock was .Those guy,s in the rib seemed happy to meet up ..for a chat .
And yes... there are "big" sharks... Silkies are small, however they do school at Malpelo. The big sharks include the occasional Tiger, large Galapagos sharks, and a few other types... the silkies and the Galapagos are the "curious" ones...
Es macht richtig laune eure Videos zu schauen. Ihr seid alle klasse. Ihr seid eine tolle Inspiration. Wir würden uns sehr freuen, euch einmal im Mittelmeer begrüßen zu können. Passt auf euch auf!!! Hasta pronto familia❤
Parlay episode today had great whites... left a bite mark on his boat. After seeing that, I agree with Ash about getting in the water with big sharks. Nice sized tuna! I wouldn't mind seeing another episode about your fishing gear. In fact I'd like that very much if you include things like how you secure the handlines. I was a bit confused today about how it appeared you caught the tuna on a hand line, then reeled it in using rod&reel. how does that happen???
Your content is genuinely heartfelt and thought-provoking, always leaving me with a smile on my face. I admire how you blend humor with insightful narratives in your videos. And I am floating village life
Wow. I enjoy the glimpses of far away places most of us will never see. Malpelo, bad hair? That tuna looked fantastic, hope you really enjoyed that meal. Hopes for safe travels, good winds, and calm seas as you navigate to the Marquesas.
Great episode. Ben, I think you should wear long sleeve shirts to hide those guns. You look great Brudda. I am so excited for this second go round. You both are doing such a great job.
I was talking with my mate the other day about food, he asked his kids where it came from both said supermarket. Thank you for showing the truth for us to live things will die, be it plants cows pigs sheep or fish. Stay safe keep the stick up and the loved ones in the boat.
Nice little table size but after the 20th one I was sick of more fish ! I had a look at the Colombian rock 2 but it was too rough and I left again leaving the military looking at us leaving ! I'm in Australia now ! Good luck !
So excellent. My sons love cows, steers and bulls, taking care of them but also eating them. They understand that loving and caring for them is not inconsistent with eating them. Same with fish, same with birds and deer. Being humane doesn’t mean you starve or are a vegan. You really can do it all
Wow. I'd really like to be there some day!. Im a biologist student but I decided to study insects (which is a beautiful group anyway), so, I couldn't go to Malpelo as my marine biologist did. This video help me to show of beautiful and awesome that rock is. Thank you so much for show us the experience!!! Ps: In my thesis, I included the only pelagic insects. A water striders from the genus Halobates wich probably acompanied you in your travels.
What a nice couple you are. I wish you an eye opening journey. It's hard to be direct to someone that has never met you, but I'd feel better if no person was near the pacific ocean. ...but what do I know.
I wonder how deep that part of the ocean is and what was there first the ocean or the rock/mountain. Truly incredible to see that in the middle of the ocean.
I don’t understand the thumbnail. I feel it was a bit of a click bait. I absolutely love you guys and I hope you don’t get in the habit of using click bait, you’re above that. ❤
I think it should be number one rule for your kids to have a life jacket at all time. It takes one second for them to go off board. There is 1000 of reason they should have them on
Growing up on a sheep and beef farm in New Zealand we learned from day one where our mutton beef chicken and pork came from plus I was shooting deer with a pump action .25 at 9yrs old 1966 as that was what clothed and helped us live as a war farm couldn't support a family of 5. Absolutely love the lifestyle your children have and so enjoy your Vlogs ignore the negative remarks if people don't like your lifestyle then don't follow.
Well I think it's important to get them enjoying fishing and skin diving and then low tides to go into the t tide pools is when I was a little kid I really enjoy doing that especially some of the typos you can swim in you can see all kinds of great stuff and when it comes to fishing really get them interested like I wish my dad would have got me a good fly fishing teacher when I was young I picked it up when I was in my 20s my other things I enjoyed to do and Diving skin diving really enjoy that
What an awesome life experience!! The only thing , with two little kids, I would be worried sick all the time about them falling off then boat. How do you deal with that? Also, do you ever worry about encounterine pirates on the open sea like that??!
Just saying....you guys got some major BALLS!!! Lol😅 That is exactly why I've been following you for years. That island just looks like Dr Evils secret lair. Thank you so much for sharing your lives. Be safe ❤

Ohhhhhh. Thank you for sharing this info.
Que gonorrea
Así es...
It's always the little short zipper-heads
Scuba Diving in Malpelo is amazing!! Comercial fishing boats are expelled constantly, that’s why the military base is needed.
How cool is that? Chatting with the national park people. Seeing the rock, catching dinner. You are great ambassadors.
Possibly one of your best episodes (I've seen them all). Your dialogue about harvesting the fish with your tiny tots was a bit odd at first, and then I got it. My wife actually said...."Canadians Rock!". A lot of honesty and shy on the BS.
I’m from
Colombia and didn’t know that malpelo had some type of buildings or people living there, very interesting

Nahoa is definitely at the top of my list of sailing channels. Like the O'Kelly's said "these guys are Rock Stars".
I'm glad your mother is still alive to travel with you and your kids be safe and have a good trip
Thanks for showing me a part of my country I have never been to. Beautiful footage 🙏
I have not said "hi" in a while. What your kids formative years on the ocean will do to them....will be amazing to see. Let's do that Pacific again.
Love the way the kids are learning how food is harvest.

"We're on our second lap around the world" Awesome statement.
Congratulations 400k Well deserved!
very cool interaction with the national park guys!
Malpelo has some of the very best diving in the Pacific. Along with Cocos and the Galapagos this is part of a superhighway traveled by large schools of scalloped hammerheads...
Es una cadena montañosa que estuvo en la superficie hace millones de años. Y si es como una carretera 😮
I´m from Colombia, is great to have you around here, malpelo island is a reservoir for fauna, and is next to an old jail called Gorgona

@@julianandresful Thank you Maam. I now live in Bogota, (Campin) and the people are so great, I cant tell you. Colombia is a huge country and I still wish to explore much more. Boyaca for the future. Thank you for your kind words and Dios te Bendiga!
@@jackwalker9492 that sounds great, I live in Boyaca and it's my favorite place, also Villa de Leyva it's a great place to visit

With the head of the fish....you can do a great SOUP , LOVE YOUR CHANNEL ❤❤❤❤
400K + subscribers Ben and Ashley! Woohoo. Love your videos. 😍
Love you guys! I'm with Ashley. We may not be on the menu for large sharks, but if they get curious and take a nibble they can cause a lot of damage. Better to not risk it. Safe travels. ❤
I was there in 1974, hasn’t changed much except for building and electronic equipment.
What?? How old are you sir?
@@robinhoodz08 , I have some photos taken from the French fishing vessel I was working on at the time, anyway not too old but I am no kid either.
Happy passage! Enjoy one another and we look forward to seeing what the children make of French Polynesia!
Ashley as a 50yr woman who grew up without social media. I appreciate what you did in this video for Willa. One day, she will thank you! I'm glad you guys are safely traveling the Pacific Ocean 🩷 safe sailing!
I think Ben actually does more of the editing than Ashley (I could be wrong) but they are both great parents.
Interesting you say that. I thought it was very weird. Like it was sexualising a toddler.
I also thought it was a bit surprising but I think they're just covering all their bases. Some people might care. They probably don't.
I was upset they felt they had to blur out an innocent child's body. WTF is this world coming to. Appalling.
Great video besides what you apparently had to censor.
9:04 its good you switched over to smaller hooks for the Eccosystem too. Alot of people dont understand that you actually want the smaller fish, the big ones are the ones spawning eggs after all... not to mention if you fish out the larger ones you are killing the ones with the genes to grow large.
Man that tuna looked good. I love that the kids are so involved. I only have a sample size of two of them, but agree with your assessment.
I love that answer "yes you can, but try not to get eaten!" LOL ❤
Such adorable children 😊 you are making memories they will never forget 👏
I have been to Malpelo !! I Did an underwater documentary for the Columbian Government on an expedition there years ago for a week...it is certainly out in the middle of nowhere !!!. Glad you were able to see it which is very special and yes, they have some very, very big sharks there :-)
ColombiAn 😊
Colombi-AN
Columbia ??? Come on and you work for the government and don’t know the country’s name ?
British Columbia Government 🇨🇦 ? or Colombian Government 🇨🇴... 😅
Co-LOM-bian.
fascinating watching you preparing that small Tuna for dinner. Your young guy was totally immersed in the whole process. dinner never tasted any better . Oranges direct off the tree have a more wholesome flavor to the supermarket versions .
15:15 AIS signals are transmitted and received via VHF, which is pretty much line-of-sight. That's why she's not showing on your AIS equipment.
Or they had it turned off.
Congratulations on reaching 400K and still counting!
Malpedo Island, home to a huge colony of Nazca boobies, three species of lizards, one unique species of land crabs and the waters around it are very popular with numerous species of fish (hammerhead sharks in particular who call this place home), It is a great diving spot.
How did those lizards get thereeee?

Le rayon vert... wonderful. Haven't heard that term for ages. Thank you.
I´m colombian and I´ve just learnt so much about malpelo island, such an interesting place to know about!
Mr. Go for it. He's adorable. As you all are. Thank you fellow canucks for the wholesome entertainment. Cheers from the Flatlands. Monty
Ohhhh I’m early 😊 perfect Sunday watch!
So cool. I wouldn't go in the water either. Bodhi so funny saying "go for it"😃

Liebe leute! Wir leben in Medellin Colombia und volen folgen eure reise.

That was nice that you offered him a beer
Nice start to the Pacific crossing. Interesting rock and a very helpful greeting "committee". Keep safe.
Your kids won the mom and dad lottery. Happy and healthy days of sailing ahead.
Safe travels guys, looks amazing. Thankyou for sharing.

And I am floating village life
This is what life’s for ,well done to you and your family
Great video and happy to see you underway again across the Pacific. Curious on what happened with the military communication in this video?
Love the family meal together! Such a beautiful and happy family! How was the snorkel?
Wow. I enjoy the glimpses of far away places most of us will never see. Malpelo, bad hair?
That tuna looked fantastic, hope you really enjoyed that meal.
Hopes for safe travels, good winds, and calm seas as you navigate to the Marquesas.
Thank you for taking us along.

Thank you again for a very enjoyable episode Of Nahoa Sailing Adventures.. ! Yeah..!!!😅
If y'all can sail the world full time while raising two kids, I'm positive I can complete The Great Loop!

Very interesting observation about seeing your meat being processed and the desire to eat it....
I think it should be number one rule for your kids to have a life jacket at all time. It takes one second for them to go off board. There is 1000 of reason they should have them on
Somebody on the crew is eastern Canadian, the other one maybe from the west. My mother was from NB.
