I've been watching your channel since monohull days... watching the kids grow up & enjoying your world travels. Now that the kids are leaving the nest it's going to be interesting to watch the channel morph again! I know it will be fun & it's always an education. Keith is always impressing me with his fitting out new equipment or fixing things that come up... & You are a great filmmaker, Renee! I really appreciate your channel!
same hereee…
Absolutely! Now I will get more “KEITH” content 🤣
Me toooo
100%
I have been watching for years also and to think the channel is going to change so much.
I loved the moment when Kate said "I dont know feet, maybe 9 meters". Made me put up my german smile 🙂
Me too…that girl gets it! ✌️
Good on you Kate. Meters is the way of the future. Tell the dinosaurs back home it's time to move on.
Keith and Renee: Just a delight. :) Everyone of them is a young adult who is a well trained, project planner, independent thinker, with an excellent hereditary and developed I.Q. Each of them will excel at anything they chose to do. We have said it before.....they are a testament to your true success as parents. Congratulations to you both. :)
Lots of love in the family luv you guys 🥰🇦🇺
Yep. The birds eventually leave the nest. 😢. They are all great kids. Be proud. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thanks for everything. So much observed, learned, and enjoyed. Wishing all of the Zatara family, crew past and present, the absolute best. We weren’t Patreons but definitely intense followers throughout your adventures. Again, thank you for everything along the way, what a job you’ve done raising the kids, can’t wait to see what’s next for all (happy to hang with Finn in Los Angeles or Puerto Vallarta in exchange for sailing/kiting time). Cheers and warm regards, 🤗
WOW!! Not even a response.....or thank you!!!! Un real
Thank goodness you and Keith are going to keep sailing. I was so bummed thinking you’d stop once the kids left the boat.
You have such a large boat you’ll have so many opportunities to have Patrons and guest’s aboard and half of your videos going forward for awhile may be hysterical with your bloopers with Keith yelling in the background …. what are you doing? lol
Adult aged Med crew is a great idea!
I'm so glad that you and Keith are staying on the boat.
Ever since Finn started talking about van life I have thought it would be best if he wasn't alone also I think its better if you have someone to share new adventures with. So now that Luke mentioned he is thinking about tagging along I think as long as they get along that would be good. Had really hoped to make it to Miami to meet you all but being from NJ it didn't workout. Best of every thing to Kate Finn Jack & Luke!
As a long- time Vanagon owner I was happily surprised to see the VW Van is one Finn "s considering . ....VW stopped producing the Vanagon water- cooled model in 1992 ...it morphed into what is called EuroVan and the engine was moved up front ....a modified Audi model I heard. Regarding a travel mate ..I was thinking the same thing . Luke , being an ex-ship mate ( trust) should tag along for this excursion . I'm older than Keith is and bought my Van in my 20s ....had lots of fun in this unique< but badly underpowerd rig. (90hp)......I'm Canadian ....like Glory is lol. The best to all crew of Zatara!!...safe passage and travels !!
I'm going to miss them😢 Kate, Jack & Finn 🛥️ Good Luck ❤👍‼️ Jack, get your captains' license (& Kate too) ⛴️⚓️
Keith, get a tuning fork for your first aid kit. It is a quick way to check for broken bones. Here’s how: hit the tuning fork to get it vibrating then touch whatever bones you suspect is broken with the handle of the fork. If it hurts like all get out then it is likely fractured.
Kate make sure you get in your Jacks videos if you’re not going to film your adventure. I will miss all you kids & continue following all you adventures. Keith & Renee will continue watching yours as well . Hope to see more of Anna also .
Enjoyed watching all videos you have shared .
Hope you all continue to enjoy life . ❤🙏🏻
I have been watching your channel religiously for years, and it truly has been a delight to not only come along for all the adventure but to watch your kids grow into amazing humans. Jack, the leader and thoughtful one, Finn, the comedian and skilled musician, and Kate the fearless and creative. They will be missed, but I know deep down that these are the types or risks that you’ve raised them to take. Cheers to ALL of you.
Renee, l am genuinely sad😢, what will life be like without the kids on board?
I love my kids and it was so hard when the last one left the nest, you have all three leaving at the same time.
My head tells me, “this is what we raise them for is to be independent “ my heart says otherwise!
Blessings as you all go your separate ways.
We will follow each and everyone of you including Luke. He just fits right in.
Luke, definitely pick the adventures over college (at least for now). As a 33yo man, I did the college route right out of high school and started a family in my 20's. I love my life and family, but have regrets about not being adventerous when I was younger, and I definitely live adventerous through watching you guys' videos on my lunch break at my desk LOL. You can do college at any age! Go live!
I live in Arizona. Also own a small upholstery shop. If that van needs seat or other random upholstery curtains, cushions, etc. come visit here we can get it sorted. Also saw the boat seat needs some love.
How nice of you!!
Hi Renee next time you get to the shops buy Keith a moon boot for his foot. It will support his foot whilst he walks round the boat
The Z crew needs to know about this offer. More likes and comments here.
If the Z crew doesn't know about the offer how can they know?

[EDIT] sorry the cat walked over the keyboard and pressed enter.
I watched this video at work today and now at home because the quality that Renee puts in her videos is 100 % theater quality from start to finish. I just love watching the whole family and Luke enjoying life to the fullest. I wish I would have been able to see and do what all of you have done all these years. Cheers to you. Renee if I were a movie producer, I would definitely hire you to film and help produce, edit one of my films. You are that good. Can't thank you enough for sharing all of these. I hope you have some hidden videos none of us have seen to post after Jack, Finn and Kate leave the nest to keep them in our hearts. I really really wish they would stay around longer. I was trying so hard to come visit your family in Miami, but time constraints won't let me.
Tried so hard not to cry watching this video. I know it's all happy things coming up for the kids. They've become so independent and it's what life is all about. Someday they had to leave the boat. But, I just hate to see them go. Will definitely follow their journeys. Looking forward to what's next for them, and Renee and Keith. What a family!!!!!! 🥰
Finn, let me tell you about my adventure with VW Westfalia vans-it's been a rollercoaster of laughs and mechanic bills! I cherished owning one until I had to swap out the original engine for a Subaru and practically renovate it weekly. It is over 35 years old. I think I spent more on parts than the van's actual worth! Can you believe it? But hey, if you're after the ultimate van experience, consider the Mercedes diesel van. It's stealthier, more reliable (hello airbags, brakes, and engine!), and with the right modifications, it'll take you almost anywhere, even on those rough roads. just my dime. Good luck on your adventures.
Kate is such a champ. Always keeping up with the boys.
Like the fact that she is willing to go look for food using her time in a useful way .....jack likes to waste his energy free diving ......whatever ???..
You should be proud..Because of you both.. Those kids have a figting chance
Am so happy to see how Keith and Renee have taken care of the children and layed a very good base for them to start their personal lives on what everyone feels comfortable with.. Am from Kenya and i wish i had such a starting in life but nevertheless we move on.... God bless you guys as you start your new adventures.
Watching these children grow into thriving, well rounded young adults has been fascinating. The people they've become is a testament to their parenting great job Kieth and Renee'. Good luck to the kids in their future challenges. And Renee and kieth adjusting to them not being on the boat w. You guys.
I too have followed you guys since monohull days. It seems rather sad that the kids are now heading out on their own paths, but that was always going to happen. I am sure you will get volunteers to help crew, I would love to help having sailed most of my life.
Renee I your channel and will keep watching, even if you decide it’s
Montana cabin life and helping Finn build his home.
Good luck to Jack and Kate, enjoy Tonga.
It’s been a special treat watching “Sailing Zatara” it’s sad to see Jack & Finn leaving, what is the plan? Will Zatara sail again, with Daddy, Mommy and daughter? I’m sure planning is taking place soon, I truly wish you all God Speed Ahead, Lots of Love and Fond Memories to all 5 of you , will be watching out when you start sailing again❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Just saw in this video, Kate will join Jack
Been here since you packed up and sold your home. It will be interesting to see only the two of you navigate the water. Best wishes. Enjoy your time on land. ❤
Just remember Home is where the heart is ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Hope they all come back to the boat ⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵ Safe travels to all
Oh my gosh, I'm going to miss this part of my Thursday mornings! Your family is such an inspiration to young and old. I tried van life in my 60s but was ill-equipped for the surprises and challenges. I did manage it from Boise, over through Yellowstone (recommend highly!) and points east, then down to Georgia to spend time with my dad in his final days. Now I am working toward my Ph.D., a lifelong dream. My point is that following one's dreams should happen to all of us restless souls who want more out of life. You all do that, and I want to wish you the very best in all your future endeavors. And I will be watching whenever I see any of your videos pop up. Much love Zatara! ❤
I love watching the kids grow up on the boat. I hope they know how lucky they are to have a great Father and Mother that has tough them well. I am going to miss watching the kids on the boat but I will still enjoy this channel and the kids channels too. Go luck and thank you now off to your new adventures.
We all feel for you mom and dad❤ as much as I’ll miss the kids on this channel, I know where to find them on RUclips. I’ll also really enjoy learning more from Keith as I’m sure they’ll be a lot from his vast wealth of knowledge here on sailing Zatara, my favorite family on RUclips ❤
I've been watching for years & sad to see the kids go but at the same time it is great that they are doing their own thing & chasing their dreams. Best of luck to everyone!
I can't express how much I'm going to miss these wonderful family videos. I love Keith and Renee and your beautiful family. Thankyou so much!!!
Renee, there is a lot of love in your videos, 🙏 Thank you. Your kids are great. You all will be fine.
Looking forward to the next chapters in life for you all❤ I loved working on the whale watch boats so I know Jack and Kate are off to a great adventure! Finn, land life is amazing and RUclipsrs are all about the nomad lifestyle, you’ll do great as well! Keep playing that guitar❤ Meanwhile back on the boat, aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh peace and quiet!!! Glad you will keep the cameras rollin Renee!!! Love you all!!!! Cindy
This episode felt heavy, emotionally. Knowing each one is going to embark on their individual journey. Like a beautiful movie that you wish never ended. I’ve grown too fond of watching all of you wonderful people sailing around the world but that’s life I guess.
Love and peace from India.
Keith and Renee,
I've watched your life unfold on board and your kids grow to be real, honest and contemplative people.
I too grew up sailing, and ocean racing all over the world. I am 76 now and still at it. On, probably, my last circumnavigation. This time on a motor troller.
Love that you are continuing as well. I look forward to seeing what you do next.
Best wisher for you and your family!
Pete

I've been quietly watching every week for a few years now. Thank you for bringing us along on your adventures, the videos are so professionally done and it's so much fun to "experience" boat life through Zatara. You guys have a wonderful family and it's been an honor to learn and laugh with you all, especially when I need a little break from life in college. I'll keep following the new adventures but just wanted to say thank you and good luck to all of you! :)
Fair winds and following seas Keith and Renee ❤❤
I never get tired of binge watching the entire series from the very start.
I can't believe how the kids have grown into well grounded young amazing adults.
I'm going to be sad to see them leave the boat, but look forward to watching their RUclips channels in the future.
Many blessings and lots of love from this #USNVETERAN ❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Can't wait to see the next episode from the boat show ❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome! Renee & Keith, y'all have to get to know each other all over again. An empty nest is a new world. God bless all of y'all!
Oh Keith. I am sorry about your foot. Mine is broken too and making off-grid life more challenging, so I can imagine on the boat it is likewise. I hope yours heals quickly. So much bittersweet and excitement all wrapped up together in this big family transition. Love how you are helping your kids launch so beautifully into the next stage.Congrats and hugs to you all.
...the kids are getting ready to fly..joyous and sad allll at the same time...love you guys..

Great video! I retired at 49 and purchased a class A motor home and my twin brother and I traveled all over the country and Canada and Mexico for twelve years and just loved it. We met hundreds of people on the way who traveled in motor homes. We even rented a motor home in Europe for a couple of months. I know young couples who live the van life and just love it.. So your son will love it too. It will be much more fun if their is another person along with him but some single people have their dog with them which does making videos more fun to watch.
I've really enjoyed watching your channel over the years. Thank you so much for sharing!! I hope your baby bunnies enjoy their new adventures!! They are living the dream by following their passions! Much love to you all!!❤❤
Such talented young people who are well prepared to live on their own, but having 3 of them leave all a once would be so emotional. I still remember crying when my now 48-year-old son went to kindergarten! He was fine, his mother was not. He has made it through many milestones into middle age very well, but as a parent, life never is the same again. Your grown children leaving tugs at my heart for you. So many abrupt changes in all your lives leaves me both wanting to see or hear about all the adventures and yet wanting to know how you manage as parents all the changes this brings for you on an emotional level. May God bless!
Excited for new adventures and if you are ever in need of a fun night out in Florida north side we are in Palm coast headed to St Augustine soon where they have anchorage… fun town! We are hoping soon to get our own boat…
Such a great episode. Glad to hear everyone's plans. Onwards and Upwards. I'll keep an eye out for the "Topless Boy Band's" first vinyl😄
😂 💿
Wow. I love Kate how I saw in her eyes the adventure coning, but also her apprehensions from leaving her comfort zone. Kate, I've watched you since you were a child. You can do anything and life is all about chapters. Enjoy the chapters but always know those chapter can change and you should embrace change. Take solace in the fact that you aways have a home to come back to. So spread your wings and fly. I'll be rooting for you.
Cute how birds flew around Kate! Kids leaving the nest is always hard on the ❤ but thats the way it’s supposed to be. For a while it can be like a revolving door. My hubby/I enjoyed getting to know each other again without the kids. Then came the weddings and 10 grands. So happy to watch this video at the end of the day as just visited hubby in the ICU after quadruple bypass surgery. Doing well. Decided to relax with u here in 🇨🇦 Gordon Lightfoot A Canadian legacy 👏
We used to hunt lobsters in the Florida keys. We’d get a couple folks being pulled by a slow moving boat dragging a couple of ropes. When you saw a good spot, you let go of the rope and go drag them out of their hiding spot. We went on the opening days of amateur season so legal lobsters were pretty available. A week later it would be a lot harder. Then you pretty much had to have scuba gear so you could stay down and use tickle sticks to check every hole. You use the stick to tap the lobster on the butt and they will come out of their holes. You never stick your hand in a hole without knowing what’s in it. You might lose a finger or two!
The trick to going down is to use a 10 lb (tied off) weight. Hold it until you get to the bottom then release it and when you're done pull the weight back on board! You'll have more time on the bottom because you'll use no air getting there. It works for me.
congrats on the license jack i got mine 13 years ago a great teacher helps alot to make sure you succeed
Renee,the opening of this episode was beautifully filmed, very calming and brought peace within. Another great episode there Renee, your talents are amazing along with your wonderful family. Out of interest how much land do you guys have in Montana? Would be great if all the family ended up there on the property 😊- Thank you once again for sharing your adventures. PS Hope Keith’s ankle-foot is ok. Cheers from the Sunshine Coast Australia 🇦🇺🙏✝️
Gordan Lightfoot is a iconic musician from Canada. 🇨🇦
Loved having the kids giving updates on their futures.
You two have raised awesome people. They are sound reasonable thinkers, aware of their responsibilities. By watching your videos it has been great to watch them grow into who they are.
I understand about Kate wanting to keep her artwork personal, that each piece is a part of her. Maybe at some point in the future she can have a show and share select pieces with us.
I look forward to seeing what you and Renee do, and the places that you will travel to.
Thank you for sharing a bit of your life withus.
Its fascinating how the different technologies integrate into life in general. From navigation, to monitoring, entertainment, recording events, communication, editing etc. It's hard to imagine a world without it now. Anyways, this was a wonderful visit with all of you aboard Zatara. What you all are doing with your lives, IS Life defined. Keep on Keepin' on.
I've been watching since the beginning, too. I also had two boys and two girls...spaced much as yours. Watching your kids grow up was like having my kids growing up again, too. I treasured them and their adventures like my own kids. The only difference (except the sailing part) was when mine went off to college ... I decided to have two more kids, another boy and girl. We could have sailing zatara 2, lol? 😂
I wish the best for all of you and can't wait to experience the new life.
wow, you guys! I have been watching since I can remember. It’s my favorite show to watch every week or sometimes every couple of weeks. I’m sure gonna miss everything. Best of luck to all the kids! I’ll watch them all on their channels. follow along even though it’s all splintered. Empty nesters, hang in there it’s not easy.
Wonderful Mama Renee! God bless and good luck to all on your new adventures! 👍🤗🤗
Aw, this makes me kind of sad. I've been following you since the very beginning. I've been an empty nester myself for many years, so I know what you guys will be going through. You will feel sad at first, but somehow we adjust to new phases in our lives... Best wishes to all of you, and I will be following each of you.
It is bit of a sad episode. I've watched those kids grow up on the ocean, and I gotta say you did one hell of a job!! I look forward to you and Keith's future adventures. Much success to the kids on their endeavours. Finn, good call on a great Canadian musician and songwriter , Gordon Lightfoot. GBNF
I’ve watched every episode of sailing zatara, right from the beginning. This episode gave me goosebumps thinking that it might be the last sailing video all together.
The kids are so well rounded, and they’re well equipped for whatever they want to do with life! They’ve seen so much more than children who live on land!
Please keep on filming so we can see how you can Keith get on, maybe you’ll go for a second circumnavigation!
I’ve been watching your channel for a while now and I just realized that you’re a O’l pipeliner ?
That’s ironic
I’m turning 55 next month and have pipelined on some of the biggest spreads of n the United States
I’m looking forward to enjoying these same priceless experiences soon
God bless
Stay safe and hang loose
Thanks Renee, for keeping the filming going.
Oh Wow.. Like so many on here who have journeyed with you from monohull days, we too are going to miss the antics that is "Zatara". You have made us smile, kept us entertained and inspired us to embark on our own adventure's, some even following the boating lifestyle. As the final chapter in this book comes to conclusion, it's comforting to know that the next epic series has four books... And we cannot wait to take that journey with y'all.
This feels like the last episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S for me. I’ve been with you since the monohull days, an end of a era 😢 You Guys rock, thanks for allowing us to be part of your family. Already subscribed to the kids when they opened their channel so grateful to see their lives lived as they wish now. Apron strings cut and now Mum and Dad, you’ve done your job of parents beautifully, they are independent thinkers which is imperative and it’s now your time to spread your wings. Take good care and enjoy being with your extended family ☮️💜
Ohhh this is so sad! I can't believe they all grew up so much so fast and you are all getting in different directions. I can't believe it! I've been watching from the beginning, Years!! and .....Thank you Renee for keeping filming. Your filming is what kept us all watching. You did a great job and hopefully we will continue seeing more and new adventures. Good luck to all of you. Your children are amazing and love the idea of Jack and Kate going to Tonga and Finn, keep playing your guitar and producing music. Maybe that's what you should study. My son is a music producer in London . I support him 200% in his decision and love what he is doing. Love you guys!! ❤
Finn come see us on the west coast, Oregon specifically! Lots of boon docking and we have high mountains, high desert, lush valley’s and the beach all within 3 hours. I also have land that you’re welcome to camp. You’re a bit younger than my 3 boys.
And all the crazy laws and people. Be careful.
Only discovered your channel this year but I've also been "back watching."😁 You and Keith are the parents I'd always wished I'd had. Personally believe that your children are so very blessed, fortunate and lucky because of both of you, they will all be a great success in life.😊
Been a blast watching the Zatara adventures over there years! As has been said, I'm sure it's bitter sweet to see the kids go but you all should be very proud of yourselves and as parents Keith and Renee 1000x prouder for raising a superb set of kids, all of your kids. Cheers!
Love the new intro.
I found y'all about 6 months ago and quickly came to love you all. I am 65 and grew up as something of a boat kid myself so your adventures afford joy and significant meaning to me. I am also the father to 2 fantastic boys (33 and 26) who are on their own and very successful, so I am empathetic to the emotions of letting go, of which y'all seem to be at the beginning stages. I unfortunately was not able to give my boys nearly as much boat life as my father gave me or as much you have given your kids... But I have to say that Jack, Finn, and Kate are truly spectacular in their knowledge, resilience, and maturity - you should be very, very proud and feel comfortable that they will make their way with confidence, grace, and real capability. I will continue to follow all of your youtube channels with enthusiasm - thank you for the vicarious adventures I long for but can no longer take on myself. Peace, fair winds, and safe travels to all !
Awwww, sad to see them all go but so excited to see all their new adventures ❤❤❤❤
For the young in age and young at heart. "LIFE IS AN ADVENTURE...SOOO LIVE IT!!" 😊😊😊😊😊😊
If you want/need new children my wife and I are ready to be adopted. You will instantly be grandparents again x2. We are very like minded adults in our mid 30's and decently well off. Talk to you soon mom/dad
Keith likes being a loner remember... (He said that long ago)
100 likes, and they have to legally adopt us!
Luke could split it up, go to Tonga with Jack and Kate. After they return and have the holidays with family meet up with Finn and have van life with him for a bit. I’m happy for all of the kids. You and Kieth are ever inspiring. So happy I discovered your family and the med crew over the summer. Looking forward too everyone’s vlogs. I wonder if any of the med crew will join the kids or you and Kieth sailing at some point.
Cheers to all of you!
Thanks so much for the update. Wow, lotta changes coming up and I look forward to watching them all. I appreciate that you tell us all what your plans are, and are not constantly throwing out hints and Clickbait just to keep the views up. That’s being honest and I appreciate it. God bless, happy sails.
Hope you can stop at Windward Beach Marine in Jacksonville Beach, FL. It's on the Intracoastal and very chill. All the amenities are around here. I'd be happy to greet you at the dock and hang out for a bit. I've lived here with my family since November of 1996. We lived at the beach until 2003, when we bought a house in Jacksonville proper. I'm only a few minutes from the marina (I just did a double bridge run past there today - perfect weather). Steve Tamburrino.
Nice offer 😊
It was such privilege watching the kids growth up over the years. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us! I wish them all the best in the future.
Keith and Renee, I have been watching your family’s adventures since the very beginning. I have a strange mix of sad and exciting feelings for all of you. Sad that the kids are going their own way. Each of them are engaging and entertaining in their own unique way. You should be proud that you’ve raised some great human beings. But I’m excited to see everyone’s next adventures! And we’ll see you and Keith OUT THERE in Texas… in Montana… on the water! New engines!!! Zoom, zoom! Looking forward to when you start interviewing to take old couples on as crew for Caribbean sailing adventures! Because that would fit my wife and I! LOL! 😂 Love to you all! ❤️
We have been watching you all since the first episode it has been an epic voyage. We all feel like you are all part of our extended family, it has been such a wonderful experience watching all the kids grow into such awesome young adults. Strangely we all feel sad that they are leaving the nest so to speak and we hope that we will see them again on Zatara soon!
I've watched for atleast 2 years now and as a young man( 28 currently) seeing a family do this was inspiring and heartwarming. Im miss my thursday Zatara videos. Hope you all succeed.
Your such a "treasure" Renee the way you put these videos together, the videography, music and how lovely you tell the story that goes with each episode, I just love it all. I've been watching for a long time now, watching the kids grow up as you and Keith take them on a world adventure. How lucky you all are and how lucky we all are being able to follow along each week.
Best regards
Mike - watching from New Zealand
Congratulations Renee & Keith. Such a great job raising your kids. All are happy, caring, active and productive people. What a team of wonderful individuals. I started watching about a year ago, and have worked my way through each video since the first. What a treat to see everyone develop and grow. It won’t be the same, but life keeps moving. I’ll keep watching. I pray this be a positive and happy transition for you all.
I’m Rob from England - motorcyclist of a certain age. Born and bred in Dartmouth England - you should go there one day as you will count it amongst the most beautiful and quaint places you have visited I’m sure. Been watching you for years but not since monohull. Rarely comment I’m afraid because I watch on the TV. But after this episode I thought I should say something. You should both be so proud as to the way your kids have worked out - bright, well balanced and independent. It’s right now they find their own way though and what a choice they have. Jack is an amazing guy - been watching his channel and he is an impressive young man. Kate is still young but she will be with Jack - good for her! Finn - an impressive musician and athlete - good luck to him touring the US by van. As for you two - the start of a new life. Seriously though, you should try the UK and Ireland. Ok it’s. Not the tropics but it’s still
Stunning. Thanks to you both for entertaining us all these years. 🤗
Just wanted to thank you for sharing your family. Thursdays are one of my weeks highlights. Fin reminds me of my oldest son, who is a helicopter pilot. Adam was always adventurous and driven. Have a good weekend at the boat show.
Wow!!! How amazing your journey as a family has been & it brought tears to me, I can't imagine for u2, as parents, sending them off after being so closely together for the past 7 yrs, no comparison to 99.9999% of the rest but u ought to be sososososo proud as u've given sososososo much to your kids to do well in the world & be a blessing to their generations! I've been on the road for over 9 yrs since I left London, 30+ countries now & the journey's been more than enriching in just about every single way and the worse is, I absolutely do not know how to go back to my life before except to journey on and so should u2, as they are tons more to explore & experience ahead that's for sure!!! JESUS ❤❤❤YOU ALL!!!
Hey guys I have been following you for 4+ years and it has been an awesome time seeing all the adventures you've been on and seen the spectacular places you bring us to I'm excited for all the kids new adventures in their life God bless them I hope they're always successful also I'm sad not seeing you guys all together but I know life continues to go on God bless you guys wish you nothing but the best and love you
Love you guys! I was dying with severe Gut health problems candida, SIBO, severe vitamin and mineral deficiencies, digestive problems , had to do enzymes, ox bile extract, etc. God used your videos to give me hope and get out of my mind and house and explore the world with you. God bless you and your family. I am thankful we will all be together in heaven one day. This earth is amazing, how much more incredible will the new heaven and new earth be? With no more sickness, death , or crying, and all of us together in perfect peace enjoying creation, It will be unfathomable.
Love your channel....it has been such a joy to watch your family really connect out at sea. With a 7 year old and our adventure just beginning, we have taken so much inspiration from your adventures. Keep floating away!!! Also, would love a vid on your filming/editing journey. Trying to get up the courage and skills to get started😊
So envious of y’all’s lifestyle!! I love all the updates on everyone’s future plans! Is there an update on Anna? We haven’t seen or heard about her in a while! As a former Texas Aggie, just wanted to know if she ended up enjoying college!!
I’m excited to see what’s ahead for my favorite sailing family. It’s bittersweet to watch the kids go out on their own but being able to watch their adventures on their channels will be nice. I’ve been watching since you began boat life and always look forward to Thursdays. Love and hugs from California. ❤️
Been following along since our Covid lockdowns.
Thankful to the sailing community for making that period of time a little more adventurous for us.
We lived through you guys.
Looking forward to many more adventures.
Renee, think about getting crew on board during hurricane season.
Plenty of viewers would jump at the chance. That way you won’t need to do as much sailing.
Good luck kiddoes on you next adventure. 💗
Good luck to all the kids! Wish you nothing but success
I’m so thrilled to see you guys keeping on. My mom heart goes out to you, watching my last birdie leave the nest and set off was the biggest challenge I have ever faced. We look forward to running into y’all sometime out there on the water!
Good to see the children pursue things off the boat. Good luck to them.
Might you be looking for crew this year? I crewed on an IP 465 from Victoria BC to LA in 2021 and did my Sail Canada Basic Cruising Standard in 2023 (4 days day sailing). I also race/teach San Juan 21s on the local pond with the Glenmore Sailing Club, where I'm House Captain. Recently separated and empty nester. Fitter than 40. JUST Sold the house. Free to go wherever whenever for the rest of my time on Earth. Handy and anxious to learn more about boat maintenance and repair.
Happy trails to you all & YES! You and Keith can do this and enjoy life in a whole new way. After the initial wow of all the kids leaving. You find your groove and they seem to come back over and over and over again. In the best way! ♥️
Thankyou for sharing these...I discovered them late but binging caught me up to the current date and I can feel the winds time to change....the young gotta fly and I'm feeling empathy for the change.
We've been watching the kids grow up since early 2020. We were preparing to move to Florida and very much desire to learn to sail. We found your channel. What a great four years it has been. Great job momma on how well you and dad have raised your kids. We are looking forward to watching you and Keith work together in future sailing. If you ever need a place to relax in Central Florida, Lakeland, let us know. One day maybe we will see you out on the water.
In Louisiana we have a saying that came from our movie Steel Magnolias. (Your) “whole family looks like they were carved out of cream cheese”!!!
What a beautiful bunch of people.
Can’t say I don’t have a tear in my eye anticipating your journeys end.
I became so invested in your adventures. One can’t help but grow fond of each of you…like family. Yeah. Like family.
Thanks for all the smiles.
I’m so sad but I guess all will work out. I’ll have to keep watching you all on your new ventures but I’ll start watching boat life again from the start when I am missing all of you. All the best guys and thank you for the amazing times you shared with everyone. ❤
