  • We sail to Wakatobi to explore its world class reefs and meet with the Bajo people. These people are known as the nomads of the sea and now live in a stilt village over the reef near Hoga island. We also welcome on board some new crew for Florence.
    We are a British couple who set off from England in 2016 to fulfill our dream of sailing around the world on our 37ft sail boat, Florence. Along the way we share the live aboard lifestyle with the highs and lows of travelling around the world by boat.

    Thank you Amy and Matt for taking the kids out sailing and letting them do some meaningful jobs on the boat. What a great group of memories you have provided to them. They will probably carry the memories with them forever.

    I have to admit that this video moved me to tears of joy for the experience you brought to those young people. I was glad for the boys but very proud of you for the opportunity extended to Maharani (the girl).
    VERY INSPIRATIONAL - Big thank you.

  • @NZL50505
    @NZL50505 4 года назад +2

    Matt & Amy, we just watched this episode whilst eating dinner on our own boat anchored in the Hauraki Gulf of NZ. And we loved it, one of your best episodes. We are so pleased to be your patreons because of how much yoy ‘give back’ to the communities that you sail into. This is another key differentiator between you and the many other bland sailing channels. Great stuff - keep it up 😊

    • @SailingYachtFlorence
      @SailingYachtFlorence  4 года назад +1

    You do yourselves a great favor by being culturally sensitive to the indigenous groups you visit. Amy's apparel always seems appropriate for traditional customs, even on some occasions wearing a long skirt when western folks would wear shorts. It is no wonder you are so well accepted by these delightful kids and the many others with whom you associate.

    Friday night wouldn't be the same without the "Florence Signature Tune". Another great HD video with stunning underwater footage. Loved seeing the kids enjoying turns at being "Captain" and their remarkable ability in English language. You do realise that since so many of us are enjoying your videos..........you may have to circumnavigate twice :)

    Terrific episode. We really enjoyed it. The smiles on the faces of the young people as they sailed for the very first time mirrored the smiles on our own faces as we enjoyed watching them on what will surely be one of their favorite memories for many years to come. What a great idea to give them this memory of sailing and of yourselves. Lovely of you both.

Very pleased with the quality and price far cheaper than we can get in NZ. Sail maker friend said it was a very well made sail. Love the quality of your last video the underwater stuff was amazing and the footage with you new friends was outstanding. Keep up the good work.Cheers Bob

    Another excellent vid....thank you.
    FYI.......It seems several popular sailing channels work with Precision Sails out of Canada. The measurement and design process is done online and the finished sails are shipped around the world. My guess is there would be some sort of sponsorship opportunity too....especially for a U.K. vessel sailing around the world.
    Best of luck with whatever you decide.
