I'm married to a Filipina, and we try to return to her home once a year so she can visit the family. We usually stay a few weeks up to a few months at a time. In the 13 years I have been traveling to and from the Philippines, I can say this about its people; they are some of the most hard-working, giving, generous, and friendly people I have met out of all the places I've been. And I have been to several places. I have traveled the entire continental US (48 States), Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, Canada, Mexico, and S. Korea. What I have gathered in my travels is that the people with the least in life turn out to be the most generous. Go figure.
I have travelled all over the world and never found anyone as hospitable as Filipinos. They find happiness in the simplicity of life regardless of the finances.
Especially in the country side. They offer you what they have like coconuts, fruits, coffee, And lunch. And they speak english and not having a hard time speaking with them.
I've been in the Philippines last year and I'm amazed by their kindness, they let you try some foods for free without asking in return, they are just so happy making new friends from other country, it makes me feel like I'm part of their family, I hope I can go back to the Philippines ☹️, I have never felt loved the way I felt when I was in the Philippines. Too bad you can't see them smile anymore because of the pandemic, it is required to wear a facemask
I couldn't be any prouder of these guys. Normally, they didn't finish school but they build their own boat and install all those mechanics like a real pro. They are best kept heroes of the Philippines. Legendary 💪💪
Thats because building boats is a thousand year old tradition in Philippines. That tradition led to the expansion of Austronesians dominating the Pacific territories which also led to the maritime silk road.
You know what I like about this series as opposed to the 'other' series? This is also about the people who you meet, and not always about just the two of you. You help to build bridges with other cultures. We need more of that.

Hello from an Alaskan sailor. I live in Juneau, Alaska and we have a large Philippine community here. Many of them are my friends and they're such nice and very hard working people! I'm really enjoying your channel and especially how you're getting deep into each culture you come across. That's important, since most of us might never get the chance to do what you're doing.

@@dennistoribio1813 Yes, Juneau is a beautiful location and we do get a lot of cruise ships, so I'm sure you've been here before. I've lived here for 30 years, about half my life so far because it's such a great spot for being on the ocean, for fishing and hunting too!
I am a Filipino native I have never been to the states but have some relatives in San Diego CA and Orange county and I never knew there were still a significant Filipino community in AK.

Filipinos may be poor in a money sense, but what they show in there kindness, hospitality, love, family, and many other things there not poor. They are the most beautiful-est people i have ever met my wife is Pinay and is from Mindanao, when we go over there for holidays I live as the Filipino people do, no flash hotels we live at the farm very basic but I love it. To all the Filipino people God bless you all you are truly beautiful people.

I’m surprised this beautiful ship can compete against the Chinese fleet hovering up all the fish in Asia. India, Malaysia and Vietnam seem unable to stop them stealing our fishes.
They used cyanide. It destroyed the coral. I know as I used to catch them when they fished illegally in their neighbouring country. Always remember, never trust fishermen, either from big companies or smaller ones. They don't care!
Filipino fisherman's/seaman one of the nicest people in the Philippines they were out for 3week or a month and leave their family so that they could feed them. They're hardworking Pinoys.
Their boat is so well organised and tidy, especially for an unannounced visit like this! I love the colours and awesome style of this boat. Carrying a fleet of small boats on outriggers like that is awesome. Really friendly locals too. Nice video and thanks for sharing.
@@lodemerisback i can tell because i was born and raised in that island Suluan, Guiuan, Eastern Samar, i saw this video in Batangas City where i was working when my aunt shared this video on her fb, i even downloaded this video for Buboy and Cathy(buboy's) wife to see when i come home for a vacation but i learned they already saw this months ago before i came home
Keep in mind that Philippines is an archipelago and its people have been sailing the vast oceans for thousands of years! It’s not as if it’s ingenious? But it’s in their blood! They know how to sail the ocean more than average westerners!!
@@arkandrada3305 I agree...but your going way back I just jumped a couple of generation to the malay race because the madagascar race is remotely found now in remote areas where there is little to NO mixing of different ethnicities at all because of isolation, compared to what it is now in southern Luzon.
@@arkandrada3305 as a matter of fact...Malaysian, Indonesians, Polynesians and all of the Pacific Islanders...share the same #5 which is Lima and eyes which is Mata...so yes I agree totally we are all related somehow.
That's my people! The most friendly, accommodating, hard-working, talented, ingenious, resilient, happiest people you will ever find in the whole world!
I love how you captured our amazing sunsets. I felt both sad and proud of our fishermen... Proud because they epitomise the hardworking, resourceful, resilient Filipino. Sad because they work so hard yet earn so little.
This is one of the most fascinating sailing videos I have ever seen. I lived in Manila for a couple of years in the early '90s, and love the Philippines. But I had never been exposed to these fishing operations-- they are out of sight of the landlubbers like me. You did a fantastic job of describing all of the operations and showing the technical details of the "mother ship" and the small boats. It was really interesting to see where a lot of the fish, that I ate while living there, came from. Kudos!
Brilliant video. I loved it. I have visited Phillippines many times first going there in 1982. It's a wonderful country. Filipinos are well recognised as first class seamen and the local craft are crazy fabulous. Practicality ahead of design. The smaller boats are called 'banka' or 'pump boats' and are ranked according to how many cylinders the engine has. Astonishgly fast. Trying to be smart I once paid a fisherman to take me on his banka from Bohol to Camiguin Island, a distance of about 45 miles. Quite an experience surfing for hours over an 8 foot sea and I was more than impressed watching the boat driver weaving through the troughs until he saw a good wave and then up we'd pop on to the crest to surf like crazy. Yes Filipinos.... one of the world's better people. Hoping one day the political troulbes there may be solved. Fingers crossed. (Addicted to the place... married to a Filipino too. :) )
Great to hear that. I'm from camiguin island by the way... but you were already there waaay ahead of me. I was born in 1988, you were surfing in 1982. Haha
@@firstandlastswagman269 lady boys is different in here 🤣 they look manly than the other guys and they had big biceps and shoulders too 🤣 so scary right? It has a chance that youll be the one getting choked in a one night stand😅😅🤣🤣🤣
I am Filipino and as I watch you two interact with these guys and discover the boat, I prepared myself to cringe on what you're about to discover inside but you guys never showed any superiority nor belittle any of them. I adore you guys so much for being so real and down to earth. I wish more people are like you who appreciates our economic differences. Much love to you both always. I am a subscriber now!!
About 25 percent of all sailors on commercial ships all over the world comes from the Philippines. There are so many perhaps because the Philippines is an archipelago and Filipinos have English as one of their two official languages apart from the fact that they are hardworking, good natured and easy to get along with.
Another fun fact, if they're speaking in their native tongue it doesn't immediately means they are speaking Tagalog/Filipino. Filipinos have different language and dialects for every region, in short Filipinos won't understand each other, only if we speak Tagalog or English.
You guys are amazing!!,I’m a pilipino from Mindanao leaving now in the US , I admire the way you interact very respectful and friendly, we Pilipinos are always smiling and always find away to be happy .
What a great video my respect to you guys. This is what separates you from the rest, the only problem is I don't want it to end. Thanks from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
This video is so awesome!!! It’s so informative and shows that most of the boats all the sailors see at night are just friendly working boats. Great video!!
Philippines is like a freak of nature and FILIPINOS ARE THE BEST INTELLIGENT FRIENDLY, HONEST, HARD WORKING and GOD FEARING PEOPLE ... So many fake video these days, this video is worth to be presented in schools, colleges and universities.
Been there many times. I went out in a little bit fishing but never the big boat. It’s amazing how simple they live and enjoy it. Most of us will work a whole life time just to live a few years like they live their entire life.
Not one other channel matches your true adventurous spirit. If anyone could tell me just one I would be amazed Ben & Ash your really opening up a whole new perspective to sailing . Great work you two. Cheers Fairwinds from the @captains.chair
Love seeing you interact with the people of the Philippines, I love them so much! I was a missionary there for two years and cannot tell you how beautiful and caring and happy Filipinos are!! Bless you all on your journeys! Mabuhay!
The ancient Filipinos are seafarers travelling in vessels called "balangay" an Austronesian word which means boat. The smallest political unit of the Philippines is called barangay which is from the word "balangay". The Balangay (formerly synonymous with Butuan boat) is a plank boat adjoined by a carved-out plank edged through pins and dowels. It was first mentioned in the 16th Century in the Chronicles of Pigafetta, and is known as the oldest watercraft found in the Philippines. The oldest known balangay has been carbon-dated to 320 CE. The balangay was the first wooden watercraft excavated in Southeast Asia and is evidence of early Filipino craftsmanship and their seamanship skills during pre-colonial times. The Balanghai Festival is also a celebration in Butuan, Agusan del Norte to commemorate the coming of the early migrants that settled the Philippines, on board the Balangay boats. When the first Spaniards arrived in the 16th century, they found the Filipinos living in well-organized independent villages called barangays. The name barangay originated from balangay, the Austronesian word for "sailboat"
Your the second youtuber who sail in the Philippines the first one was SV Delos way back 2014 and after five years you are the second one goodluck and enjoy the Philippines
Been watching your videos lately and can happily say I’m addicted, I was showing my mother some of the videos aswell and even tho she is scared of the sea she’s really looking at getting a sailboat thanks to you! Happy sailing
It’s so amazing to show all the secrets they have..not as first class state of the art but very nice very accommodating people of 🇵🇭 my countrymen.. 👍keep up the good work guys😍
Filipino ingeniuity right there.. Much respect for our fishermen. Thank you for sharing this one. You are always welcome here in the Philippines. Take care always in your journey. Pinoy Pride. 💜
Wow. This is the second video I’m watching from you guys. I love how you show the life of the fishermen of the philippines. One interesting video I haven’t seen even from documentaries from my own country. I just wanna say, I envy you guys and I super love your videos. Safe sailing! Cheers.
@@SailingNahoa remember that those are hand lines they're using... just image hauling in 40 kilos of yellow fin tuna... by hand... LOL... I know... I made a mistake of using those tuna lines in one of my college holidays... got a lovely 20 kilo spanish mackerel, sun burnt skin and bleeding hands... LOL... and an unforgetable half day... you should see those little boats with their traditional sails... I learned to sail and fish using those little boats... you can mostly find them in Visayas especially in Panay Island... your catamaran is basically a descendant of those boats... wither with a single outrigger, catamaran like yours or a trimaran like the fishingboats, they have the same hull shapes... long and slim... that hull shape spread the austronesian people which Filipinos are a part of from madagascar to raster island and from taiwan down to new zealand... we are the children of the seas... :)
I came to watch this episode from the LIVE Q&A w/ Nahoa, Parlay, Ruby Rose, Lauren Landers recorded by David Shih. These people are so humble. What an extraordinary lifestyle. So nice of them to let you see into their world. Nicely edited.
Great video! I had no idea. This is where many of our fish come from. Very responsible fishing too! No nets dragging the fishing ground! Only target fish kept! If everyone fished like this we would never have a problem!
Ben/Ash, thank you for letting me into your life. Im empower to do what you two are doing. From what you do Im encourage to do likewise. Sailing is something I love to do. So little experience I have in sailing but, hope one day I can tick that box. I dearly love to circumnavigate the globe alone. thank you once again. Blessings
Those filipino people are the most attractive people on earth. I was in the navy from 68 - 72. I spent most of that on carriers in the gulf of tonkin. I tried to go native in the 80's but like kipling said east is east and west is west. I was always a an american. At least I tried to follow that dream. I still think that filipinos are the most beautiful and polite people, and then there is that rascal duterte. I had allot of really cool adventures there mostly on the island of cebu and Mindanao. If you want a really cool vacation for practically no money take your bicycle to the islands. you never have to stay in a hotel. you just make conversation in the evening with a random filipino and he will take you home to meet the family sit you down to dinner and then offer you a bed for the night , and they will even pack a lunch for you in the morning while they feed you breakfast.. Also you gain insight into what's going on in the world at large. One important tip. Never Never refuse their hospitality.
Why did you say that the president is a RASCAL oldman?think first before you talk..come here again in the philippines and say it again in the filipinos,i guarantee we will kick your ass off!!i agreed that filipinos are kind,polite blah blah blah but you have no right to say him this kind of word “RASCAL”..
This is one year now, and by the way; thanks for filming our boat. " The M/V Jojules" Im the son of the owner of the boat. The captain of the boat, is Edcel "Loloy" Telin. We have 7 mothership; having some crew capacity which is, i think....18 (it depends) The mothership docks at Tacloban City.
wow, so nice to see you messaging here!! I want to move to the Philippines and get a little boat, similar to the small fishing boats, maybe a bit bigger. thats how I saw this video. saw soem new, with 2 engines for 150k (under 3000usd) that would be my dream. bless all of you!

The Philippines is the only place where you can go to where most of the locals can understand and communicate with you in English. Some of these fishermen probably didn't finish highschool but they can properly communicate with you. If you were in Thailand, Indonesia, or anywhere else you would have a hard time getting your point across.
We are poor but we know how to entertain our visitors this a very genuine friendship i saw happy faces beautiful smile that launch even a thousand ship.
I'm married to a Filipina, and we try to return to her home once a year so she can visit the family. We usually stay a few weeks up to a few months at a time.

Very true sir. The poor are the happy/contented people. They dont rely and worry about WEALTH. But they rely on GOD for BLESSINGS.

That's not entirely true. When a Filipino smiles, it's authentic, because you can still see the eyes smile as well even as the mask covers the mouth.

They used cyanide. It destroyed the coral. I know as I used to catch them when they fished illegally in their neighbouring country. Always remember, never trust fishermen, either from big companies or smaller ones. They don't care!
They’re still capturing and killing fish, dude. It’s still bad for the ocean...just not as bad.
probably the most unique vlog i saw from a tourist visiting philippines.
My father in law is Philipino
Nicest people in the world
Always willing to share
Even if it's their last
We're On The Same Boat Men i Love Those People
What's yours is ours and what's ours is ours also
What do u mean last? Hahaha
Rudest people in the world, always scamming and stealing.
Phillip stuart. Your rigt!!🤣
i've been in the philippines 2yrs ago and that country was awesome
i want to go back
We're Waiting For Your Comeback Amy
We're Waiting For Your Comeback Amy
Amy Sandie we will welcome you w open arms. looking forward on ur return!
Filipino fisherman's/seaman one of the nicest people in the Philippines they were out for 3week or a month and leave their family so that they could feed them. They're hardworking Pinoys.
In gensan they go out for 3 months. But they arrived fresh tuna in Port. I wonder how they preserve it.
Their boat is so well organised and tidy, especially for an unannounced visit like this! I love the colours and awesome style of this boat. Carrying a fleet of small boats on outriggers like that is awesome. Really friendly locals too. Nice video and thanks for sharing.
I love how good their English was and how excited they seemed to use it! Great video amazing adventure!
That's our island, where im from. Thank you so much for this video. Buboy is actually my cousin. Great job guys, power on! 💪
Paano mo nasabe.

I couldn't help but notice Buboy has a movie star smile :-) Thanks for letting us know jenn green35 and thanks for sharing this video.
@@lodemerisback i can tell because i was born and raised in that island Suluan, Guiuan, Eastern Samar, i saw this video in Batangas City where i was working when my aunt shared this video on her fb, i even downloaded this video for Buboy and Cathy(buboy's) wife to see when i come home for a vacation but i learned they already saw this months ago before i came home
How can you 👎 this or any of their vids!?! This is an amazing look into the Pilipino fishing culture. Love it! 👍🤙
Keep in mind that Philippines is an archipelago and its people have been sailing the vast oceans for thousands of years! It’s not as if it’s ingenious? But it’s in their blood! They know how to sail the ocean more than average westerners!!
Yes my brother true that. These westerners have no idea how long we've been sailing the Pacific ocean from Malay to Easter island.
@@ziggymarley4961 we are of the austronesian race... it's actually from madagascar to easter island... from taiwan down to new zealand...
@@arkandrada3305 I agree...but your going way back I just jumped a couple of generation to the malay race because the madagascar race is remotely found now in remote areas where there is little to NO mixing of different ethnicities at all because of isolation, compared to what it is now in southern Luzon.
@@arkandrada3305 I also believe the true mountain natives of Taiwan are the same people of our mountain tribes of Northern Luzon.
@@arkandrada3305 as a matter of fact...Malaysian, Indonesians, Polynesians and all of the Pacific Islanders...share the same #5 which is Lima and eyes which is Mata...so yes I agree totally we are all related somehow.
That's my people! The most friendly, accommodating, hard-working, talented, ingenious, resilient, happiest people you will ever find in the whole world!
They have such a beautiful, yet simple life,their intelligence about their area and industry, is phenomenal.
I love how you captured our amazing sunsets.
I felt both sad and proud of our fishermen... Proud because they epitomise the hardworking, resourceful, resilient Filipino. Sad because they work so hard yet earn so little.
Amazing content. But what’s more amazing is the Filipino fishermen being able to converse with you guys. 👍🏻
This is the kind of video that sets you apart from the rest of them, Well Done
In Philippines you can communicate with the locals even if they have limited education, unlike in other countries they don't speak English at all.
My dad was a WWII US Navy veteran who was in the Philippines after the Allies took it back from the Japanese .
Thank you to your dad. For saving philippines and giving its freedom.
This is one of the most fascinating sailing videos I have ever seen. I lived in Manila for a couple of years in the early '90s, and love the Philippines. But I had never been exposed to these fishing operations-- they are out of sight of the landlubbers like me. You did a fantastic job of describing all of the operations and showing the technical details of the "mother ship" and the small boats. It was really interesting to see where a lot of the fish, that I ate while living there, came from. Kudos!
Brilliant video. I loved it. I have visited Phillippines many times first going there in 1982. It's a wonderful country.
Filipinos are well recognised as first class seamen and the local craft are crazy fabulous. Practicality ahead of design. The smaller boats are called 'banka' or 'pump boats' and are ranked according to how many cylinders the engine has. Astonishgly fast.
Trying to be smart I once paid a fisherman to take me on his banka from Bohol to Camiguin Island, a distance of about 45 miles. Quite an experience surfing for hours over an 8 foot sea and I was more than impressed watching the boat driver weaving through the troughs until he saw a good wave and then up we'd pop on to the crest to surf like crazy.
Yes Filipinos.... one of the world's better people. Hoping one day the political troulbes there may be solved. Fingers crossed.
(Addicted to the place... married to a Filipino too. :) )
Great to hear that. I'm from camiguin island by the way... but you were already there waaay ahead of me. I was born in 1988, you were surfing in 1982. Haha
I love the philippines... ive been there several times.. people are so damn heart-warming and super-friendly..
The lady boys are nice
@@firstandlastswagman269 lady boys is different in here 🤣 they look manly than the other guys and they had big biceps and shoulders too 🤣 so scary right? It has a chance that youll be the one getting choked in a one night stand😅😅🤣🤣🤣
I am Filipino and as I watch you two interact with these guys and discover the boat, I prepared myself to cringe on what you're about to discover inside but you guys never showed any superiority nor belittle any of them. I adore you guys so much for being so real and down to earth. I wish more people are like you who appreciates our economic differences. Much love to you both always. I am a subscriber now!!

About 25 percent of all sailors on commercial ships all over the world comes from the Philippines. There are so many perhaps because the Philippines is an archipelago and Filipinos have English as one of their two official languages apart from the fact that they are hardworking, good natured and easy to get along with.
Mad respect to these hard working fishermen.
Thank you for appreciating Filipino Culture ❤️You are always welcome to the Philippines ❤️👌
You asked great questions and were very respectful. Mahalo, I learned a lot. 👍
Are you Hawaiian?
Hahahaha mahal ko kayu
Michele Mahalo sounds like Mahal Ko fast 😄❤️

Another fun fact, if they're speaking in their native tongue it doesn't immediately means they are speaking Tagalog/Filipino. Filipinos have different language and dialects for every region, in short Filipinos won't understand each other, only if we speak Tagalog or English.
Precisely.
English is the common denominator of this multilingual country
Waray-waray language if i may add...
@@user-cg5gd3ke6y no one speaks waray as a medium. Only tagalog
@@user-cg5gd3ke6y bisaya is the most dominace language next to filipino

Filipinos are a hard working bunch and very friendly too. Great video, thanks for sharing :)
They are so friendly I am going to the Philippines in December I can’t wait to meet them.
Did you enjoy your stay here?
Yes enjoyed
it's been a year now how was it?
please post
Mabuhay! Welcome to PH😊
Absolutely incredible!!! This is exactly the kind of things you hope to see sailing around the world!!!
That was nice of you to have mingled with filipino fishermen .Filipinos are happy and friendly people.
What friendly and respectful people.They seem very peaceful while at work.
Nice one guys.
What a bunch of friendly fisherman.
Thanks for taking us aboard :)

como estas mi amigo. soy filipino, desde ciudad de cebu
This video is so awesome!!! It’s so informative and shows that most of the boats all the sailors see at night are just friendly working boats. Great video!!
Wow! one of your best journey is to hop in the local fishing vessel and have a conversation with them. 😁
Philippines is like a freak of nature and FILIPINOS ARE THE BEST INTELLIGENT FRIENDLY, HONEST, HARD WORKING and GOD FEARING PEOPLE ...
So many fake video these days, this video is worth to be presented in schools, colleges and universities.

Been there many times. I went out in a little bit fishing but never the big boat. It’s amazing how simple they live and enjoy it. Most of us will work a whole life time just to live a few years like they live their entire life.
This shows how Filipino Hospitality are!Proud to be one! Great job guys and keep safe always on the sea.
WOW Really interesting vid so so cool i luv the Philippines its such a colourful place

Fantastic video!! Great job guys! Pride in work and kindness with friends, hearts of gold!

WOW! What a treat that was for you guys. I am very jealous of these kind of experiences. Thanks for showing us.
I admire your ability to be so accepting of other cultures and become immersed in them. Definitely are making the most of your journey!
One thing not notice, they speak English. An advantage
The world will eventually be all English speaking

The ancient Filipinos are seafarers travelling in vessels called "balangay" an Austronesian word which means boat. The smallest political unit of the Philippines is called barangay which is from the word "balangay".
The Balangay (formerly synonymous with Butuan boat) is a plank boat adjoined by a carved-out plank edged through pins and dowels. It was first mentioned in the 16th Century in the Chronicles of Pigafetta, and is known as the oldest watercraft found in the Philippines. The oldest known balangay has been carbon-dated to 320 CE.
The balangay was the first wooden watercraft excavated in Southeast Asia and is evidence of early Filipino craftsmanship and their seamanship skills during pre-colonial times. The Balanghai Festival is also a celebration in Butuan, Agusan del Norte to commemorate the coming of the early migrants that settled the Philippines, on board the Balangay boats.
When the first Spaniards arrived in the 16th century, they found the Filipinos living in well-organized independent villages called barangays. The name barangay originated from balangay, the Austronesian word for "sailboat"
Balangay is a smaller boat. They sailed the open seas on larger boats which they called “Karakoa” or another larger boat “Adyong/Lanong/Juangas”
We filipinos are austronesian and we are good sea farers..
Awesome information.
Our unforgotten history 2500 years ago youtube
The LAPITA VOYAGE
By james wharrham we sailed everywhere to different islands they have filipino DNA
Your the second youtuber who sail in the Philippines the first one was SV Delos way back 2014 and after five years you are the second one goodluck and enjoy the Philippines
so cool, beautifull work you both do, make from your world travel a film for the schools they will learn more than their books.😘
their* books
As a fisherman i really enjoyed that video. Great job.
This is like a boat from Kevin Costner's WaterWorld. With festive colors.
Yeah. Waterworld!
That is the proof even before Spaniards Filipinos already had boat even larger than this one
the views on your channel are through the roof!! I remember when you just started out. You make good videos! They will come!
Been watching your videos lately and can happily say I’m addicted, I was showing my mother some of the videos aswell and even tho she is scared of the sea she’s really looking at getting a sailboat thanks to you! Happy sailing
It’s so amazing to show all the secrets they have..not as first class state of the art but very nice very accommodating people of 🇵🇭 my countrymen..
👍keep up the good work guys😍
Filipino ingeniuity right there.. Much respect for our fishermen. Thank you for sharing this one. You are always welcome here in the Philippines. Take care always in your journey. Pinoy Pride. 💜
Wow. This is the second video I’m watching from you guys. I love how you show the life of the fishermen of the philippines. One interesting video I haven’t seen even from documentaries from my own country.
I just wanna say, I envy you guys and I super love your videos. Safe sailing! Cheers.
And it makes me proud that my country men are nice people. At least to what I saw so far from your videos. Take care guys.
This is a really great insight in how our fisherfolks work. Great camera work too. :)
This is SO COOL!!!!!!! You guys are the best
That was way cool. 17 guys bringing in that many fish, for a month. Hard to belive they have enough room to store it all.
Makes me feel like a bit of a failure. Time to up my game!
@@SailingNahoa remember that those are hand lines they're using... just image hauling in 40 kilos of yellow fin tuna... by hand... LOL... I know... I made a mistake of using those tuna lines in one of my college holidays... got a lovely 20 kilo spanish mackerel, sun burnt skin and bleeding hands... LOL... and an unforgetable half day... you should see those little boats with their traditional sails... I learned to sail and fish using those little boats... you can mostly find them in Visayas especially in Panay Island... your catamaran is basically a descendant of those boats... wither with a single outrigger, catamaran like yours or a trimaran like the fishingboats, they have the same hull shapes... long and slim... that hull shape spread the austronesian people which Filipinos are a part of from madagascar to raster island and from taiwan down to new zealand... we are the children of the seas... :)
@@SailingNahoa you video made me want to go home... thank you so much... :)
I came to watch this episode from the LIVE Q&A w/ Nahoa, Parlay, Ruby Rose, Lauren Landers recorded by David Shih.

Great video! I had no idea. This is where many of our fish come from. Very responsible fishing too! No nets dragging the fishing ground! Only target fish kept! If everyone fished like this we would never have a problem!
Your Channel is No.1 --- just love every upload !!!
Ben/Ash, thank you for letting me into your life. Im empower to do what you two are doing.
From what you do Im encourage to do likewise. Sailing is something I love to do. So little experience I have in sailing but, hope one day I can tick that box. I dearly love to circumnavigate the globe alone. thank you once again. Blessings
Those filipino people are the most attractive people on earth. I was in the navy from 68 - 72. I spent most of that on carriers in the gulf of tonkin. I tried to go native in the 80's but like kipling said east is east and west is west. I was always a an american. At least I tried to follow that dream. I still think that filipinos are the most beautiful and polite people, and then there is that rascal duterte. I had allot of really cool adventures there mostly on the island of cebu and Mindanao. If you want a really cool vacation for practically no money take your bicycle to the islands. you never have to stay in a hotel. you just make conversation in the evening with a random filipino and he will take you home to meet the family sit you down to dinner and then offer you a bed for the night , and they will even pack a lunch for you in the morning while they feed you breakfast.. Also you gain insight into what's going on in the world at large. One important tip. Never Never refuse their hospitality.
Why did you say that the president is a RASCAL oldman?think first before you talk..come here again in the philippines and say it again in the filipinos,i guarantee we will kick your ass off!!i agreed that filipinos are kind,polite blah blah blah but you have no right to say him this kind of word “RASCAL”..
@@captainpinoy1244 you are what makes us FILIPINOS look bad! thats his own opinion, so fuck off!

ABDUL JAKUL can you give some background how he became an idiot?.
This is one of your best videos that I enjoyed watching. You posted something different from what most SV sailors shared. Good work
This is one year now, and by the way; thanks for filming our boat. " The M/V Jojules" Im the son of the owner of the boat.
The captain of the boat, is Edcel "Loloy" Telin.
We have 7 mothership; having some crew capacity which is, i think....18 (it depends)
The mothership docks at Tacloban City.
I hope we can come back some day and we will come fishing with you.
Your life is really really interesting. 🙏
@@SailingNahoa Yeah! Its so nice to hear your comments! Im gonna watch this video to my father.

Well said!!!
The Philippines is the only place where you can go to where most of the locals can understand and communicate with you in English. Some of these fishermen probably didn't finish highschool but they can properly communicate with you. If you were in Thailand, Indonesia, or anywhere else you would have a hard time getting your point across.
We are poor but we know how to entertain our visitors this a very genuine friendship i saw happy faces beautiful smile that launch even a thousand ship.
QUIO NARIO poor is only a perception...
Thanks for showing us those guys, everybody else just passes them by!

That engine is their life.
