    I love watching your guys videos, it makes me miss home more and more❤. I think and hope you guys can make one covering how it is during Flag Day over there. I’m from the village of Aua and every year I would row on the Fautasi every year. The Fautasi is a Samoan long boat. That as you guy know by now is the Super Bowl of the island. Love your videos and keep it going ❤️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    It blows my mind that you are now experiencing a lock-down when so much of the world began lock-downs two years ago (most of the continental US was locking down in March 2020)! Most of us are now enjoying less restrictions at church, school, and work. Really, amazing that American Samoa has avoided major issues to this point! I hope the lock-down is short, that people can get access to the care they need, and that all of you stay healthy and happy!

      I think bcuz it just hit Samoa... And now its spreading on that tiny little island.

    • @AmSamFam
      @AmSamFam  2 года назад +1

      I know. It felt inevitable and crazy that we lasted as long as we did. It seems to be spreading slowly. We’re grateful we’ve had time to observe how the rest of the world has handled things and get most of the island vaccinated, which I’m sure is helping.

      @@AmSamFam dang. That's still less than 1 in 50,000. My small town in the mainland has 80 deaths and we have like 10% of the population of Am Sam, so your health department was still relatively successful. It would be better at zero but that first death unfortunately happens everywhere at some point.

    You guys have been very helpful towards providing your ways of living on the island. I was born and raised there since a baby back in the 1990 going through he 2000s left around 2007 for family reasons but then when my dad came out to visit he got a stroke. I have a question? Do you guys know anything of care plans for taking care of loved ones at home and getting taken care by the government or does the government have any benefits concerning care for loved ones from home if so can you share? Just curious my dad been dieing to come back home im just not sure how to go about

    Would be a cool video to see the cost breakdown of owning and running a boat you live on. Maybe every quarter or 6 months in and then a year in? Like gas to go back and forth to shore, oil, maintenance of the sailboat, forecasted expenses, etc? I’m curious and maybe others are if you wanted to share- if not no worries! Love your videos 💕

    I noticed that you've got an extension handle on the throttle for the outboard on the dinghy. It probably helps the dinghy get up on a plane when you can sit farther forward, especially with only one person on board. Please, please, please always make sure you're using an emergency kill switch with the kill switch key on a lanyard to your personal flotation device, especially if there's only one person in the dinghy. There are lots of horror stories (and RUclips videos!) about the operator losing their grip on the extension while up on a plane. The extension handle will swing wildly out to one side and stay there, causing the dinghy to swerve violently and probably throw the operator out of the boat. With the operator in the water, the dinghy will do circles (possibly at high speed) around the swimmer, putting them in grave risk of severe injury, even death. With the kill switch key on a lanyard, the outboard will stop immediately if the operator goes overboard. Sorry to sound preachy, and if you're already doing it, great!

    • @AmSamFam
      @AmSamFam  2 года назад

      No, we don’t mind. It’s great advice. The dinghy did not have a kill switch when we bought it, but we have since added one 🤙 Thanks for the tip!
