Thought I would check back in. Just blown away by the quality of your work. The audio, while you are motoring, with the flag fully extended in the background is amazingly clear. Whatever you are doing, it works great. Have you done a "how-to" video about the way you guys record and edit the shows? Probably shouldn't. Trade secrets. And the kids. They are going to write books about you guys and their adventures as a small child, and they will have the masters to prove it. I'm doing some interesting stuff, but no sailboats are involved. My friend, Bill Pinkney passed last year. 1st African American to circumnavigate the globe, alone. Looking forward to your future adventures.
You guys are going to LOVE Turkey!!! We made 2 explorations there with a motorcycle and later rented an apartment and spent the winter in Kas about 5 years ago. Nice marina there but if you can get permission to dock in the downtown (mostly commercial) harbor: even better!! If you can leave your boat for a week or longer, Cappadocia is an absolutely amazing place to explore. Turkish hospitality is pretty amazing too. SUPER nice people!!! I should also mention that Istanbul is definitely worth a visit. Enjoy!!!
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 On the motorcycle in late 2012 (the western coast, took about a month doing that) and then in 2014. Then we rented an apartment in Kas (for three months) in the winter of 2018/2019. Highly recommend Turkey!
Brandon, your narration is always so insightful and thoughtful. I spend about four months out of the year in Greece and my observations about the country and its people mirror yours. Really looking forward to seeing your Turkiye adventures.
I love your channel and it's rapidly become one of my favourites. The photography/videography with stunning drone footage, the commentary, the storytelling, and very balanced and respectful views of the cultures you discover put the quality of your production way above all the other sailing channels'. Can't wait to see what's next for you guys!
Thank you for your great videos which showed the Mediterranean so beautiful. Thank you for sharing all of this with all of us. We left the south of France in September 2022 and we are traveling towards the Caribbean. Bon voyage
2:18 Aegean sea never calms down... -espacially last couple years warming up situations, makes LOW PREssure systems comes and goes from Azor to, Anatolia, even tails up to Blacksea..as rolling and blowing from south! which is you never expect this much even in summer
So glad you’re back and hope you had a great holiday season AND NOW-you’re on your way to brand new adventures-so happy to see you as you’ve been missed. Big Hugs!!🥰
Did you come to West Scotland, UK ? The Med can be unforgiving - either not enough wind, or too much. You may find the cooler air to the north more inviting and dependable, and we have a thousand places to see and plenty of shelter. And the wind blows around this Blessed Plot. And it is not crowded.
We would second that recommendation. We spent this past summer sailing in Ireland and Scotland, specifically Jura Sound and the Firth of Clyde. Brilliant place!
1st cookie is kourabiethes! Don't accidentally inhale while eating or you will have temporary death by powdered sugar. Loved making these with my Greek mama.
Watching your Med episodes as we plan to head further North and East after a winter spent in Tunisia. Just waiting for a weather window to make the run over to Malta and follow in your wake.
If you liked Greece as much as you did, you are in for a treat in Turkiye. Lived in Turgutreis close to the marina last year, loved it and can't wait to get back but the Shenghen shuffle caught us out...our boats still in Lefkas...roll on Spring time. Good luck and enjoy the boulevard walks with your daughter.
Night Vision Monocular - Have you considered having one? They are very affordable now, a good Bushnell is less than $300us. Great for when you pull into an anchorage at night... A Thermal Monocular would be great in fog and other times, also in the $300us price range. Both would be nice to have when looking out for pirates. 🎉
Night and thermal vision is a GREAT help ALL the time! Safety,safety,safety! A couple of flare guns and spear guns could be defensive weapons also. Be VERY careful about advertising you’re Americans! Too many radical people in those Middle East countries! Hate to say it, and I’m always the patriot, 🇺🇸, but maybe y’all should swap your USA flag for a Turkish one. Never know what someone might do while you’re away from your boat...or worse! Stay safe and healthy ⛵️🇺🇸
Finally…..we’ve been checking daily for a new post. So excited to see the family again. Happy New Year🎉! Hope all is well with you and Isa ‘s appointments in USA. 🙏🩷
We've really enjoyed watching y'all this season. Everything about your videos are lovely to watch. Looking forward to the next upload. Cheers from Bama, Carlos and Mandy.
Great episode! I always love it when I see a glimpse of Little Washington in your vids. Sure missed you over the holidays, hope you had a wonderful visit with family. Can't wait to see what's next for y'all.
Traveling is magical. Every city, town or empty structure has a history worth while exploring. It is an experience that you will never forget. We have our memories, you will to.
Missed you guys. Hope your Holidays were relaxing and you had a much deserved break. A new adventure on tap and I am looking forward to it. As always have fun be safe and see you next week.
You guys are the best couple! There are a number of cruising couples, but not many with a new baby and a dog! I worry about the dog having a DOB (dog over board) but I'm sure doggy plays it safe. If we want to learn about the early days when you guys met, and all the work you did getting the boat ready, do you have videos that far back?
That off season almost empty port town is a timely gem * It would have been a tough decision, for me, to move on, weather window or not; the place seems simply enchanting. . . :>/
Hope you are enjoying your stay in Türkiye. Love your videos and your cometary. Is Oso doing okay with the stray dogs? My daughter is in Turgutries and is making friends with those dogs as she walks to the store by your marina.
When Jordan asked how are the ladies? And Oso skipping along the edge of the boat, no life vest lol. God forbid he falls , DOG OVERBOARD ! How would they know ?
Watching your family videos is the highlight of my week. Thank you for sharing. I was looking at Isa on this video with her big smile and so tiny, I just thought, ' Honey, you are such a blessed little girl" with parents, lifestyle, pet, and love wherever she goes. What a wonderful life. With the evil we face in the States that is coming across our Southern border, and the inflation that is off the charts, life here sucks the joy right out of everyday events. Still, even if you guys have to come up with the unknown like grocery stores and other things you need, you still live a "free" lifestyle without the government taking your rights away from you.
Welcome back! You were missed. I am with you when it comes to Europe and their small local stores. Give me a small locally owned store over the big box stores so rampant in the US. The food quality is so much better because they don’t genetically modify the seeds used for fruits and vegetables, not to mention the strict rules for cattle. Don’t worry Turkey has a really good bakery scene. The food is fantastic as well, although I am sure you guys have found that out by now. I lived there for two years- the southern part in a town called Mersin. Loved it and miss it. I need to get back there.
Such a touching moment when Isabella was grabbing for daddy! ❤ she is so special! Excellent scripting of your descriptions and summations of the incredible places, food, and history that you have experienced during your journeys. A great combination of docent, tourist and historian that enhances the viewers understanding and appreciation of these incredible destinations . Well done as always and thank you for inviting us once again into your family’s life and explorations! Love love love! ❤❤❤ “or what ever”😂
Isa has grown like a weed, she seems so comfortable aboard and we are all praying her health is adequate for this lifestyle. Thank you so much for sharing these moments in Greece, informative and the cinematography and editing is superb. Happy New Years in Turkey, we loved it there back in the day.
I've been following your adventures since the start and continue to think, you should do a book on your adventures which would be amazing to read and you have tons of video and photos. The scenery in your travels is breathtaking and the details are just as interesting. I know it's one more thing, but maybe could be a side project for the future ?? Thanks for sharing your amazing adventure with the world !
Thank you so much for sharing. We have watched every episode of yours since the beginning. We just bought a small 25 foot sailboat. We know we will never be able to go on life changing journeys you are sharing with us. It is awesome to see them through you guys. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Another fantastic video. The quality just keeps getting better and better! Is it just me or is Isabella getting prettier by the episode and her personality is really shining. Wish this one was longer otherwise it was perfection 🤗💞
I love your videos and missed you guys so much!! Thanks for updating us. I thought I was subscribed & I wasn’t. But now I am! This was an excellent video and it was such a nice re-cap. I am going back to the beginning to watch any videos I may have missed. Hope you are all well! 💛💥🎉
The USPS has sent my Christmas gift from my son (in Ohio) to Turkey instead of Florida. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ Can you grab it and bring it to me? 😂😂😂 I’d probably get it faster from you guys! 🤣🤣 Enjoy the journey! It’s good to see you back! I was wondering when you’d have another video on. 💜❤️🐝🔮⚡️⛵️
Very enjoyable. Just a note wrt agents. Typically use an agent for Turkey but do it yourself in Greece. Yes a long time cruiser. Have a good time in Turkey

Enjoyed another episode Europe was wonderful. Loved all the islands and buildings. Beautiful
Great video! Thank you for taking me to all of those beautiful places
So great to see you guys again! Isa is getting so big. Enjoyed your Vlogs. Sending lots of love, Fairwinds at your back from LIZ in California
This made us even more excited to go to Europe! We look so forward to your videos every week. Hope you had a lovely Holiday season!
@5:10 ya but you aren't packing up all your possessions every 6 months or every time you have to move. you have that part fairly easy.
Thank you for your great videos which showed the Mediterranean so beautiful. Thank you for sharing all of this with all of us. We left the south of France in September 2022 and we are traveling towards the Caribbean. Bon voyage
Hope y’all had a great Christmas and New Years!
Great stuff guys! As always of course. I can't wait to see where you take us next. Whatever and wherever we go I can't wait. Best from AK NZ

Love you guys. I'm glad to see you back
Your production quality for every video is really impressive. The sights, the narration....Really excellent. This one particularly. Bravo...
Holy crap 3:58 is that the same place they filmed the Chateau D'if from the movie The Count of Monte Cristo??
1st cookie is kourabiethes! Don't accidentally inhale while eating or you will have temporary death by powdered sugar. Loved making these with my Greek mama.
Wow a year and a half? Feel like just yesterday you were painting your mark in the Azores.

Welcome back! Happy new year my friends! We love you a lot ❤❤❤
Missed you and glad to see that you are well.❤❤❤
What's the name of the Greek town where you did the Med mooring alone?
Thankyou 😊
Looking forward to your next video
That off season almost empty port town is a timely gem * It would have been a tough decision, for me, to move on, weather window or not; the place seems simply enchanting. . . :>/
We are from Canada 🇨🇦.. We love watching your journey
Happy you have returned. You guys have been missed.
Happy New Year!! ✌️💜
So glad you are headed to Turkey now. Happy New Year & God Bless all of you!!❤
Really enjoyed your sailing tour of Europe and your honest reflections, but most of all watching Isa grow up and SMILE! Thank you.
What a lovely retrospective of your time in the Med. Looking forward to more! (Your family makes me happy. 😎🥰)
Fair Isle spent a winter in Turkey. You should have fun there as well.
I agree
Yall come back home
Love you guys!
Hope you are enjoying your stay in Türkiye. Love your videos and your cometary. Is Oso doing okay with the stray dogs? My daughter is in Turgutries and is making friends with those dogs as she walks to the store by your marina.

Welcome to Türkiye 🇹🇷 🎉
Wow….changing diapers while sea sick!! That’s got to be next level….😂😂
Lol for sure
another perfect vid. Please be careful there. Been there done that. used to be leather was very cheap. :) just an old sailor.

Happy new year. Hope Turkey is good for you. Fabulous place.
Safe Travels... Enjoy !
Nice Cap Bro!, I was born in Mountain View, could be in Cruz in an Hour, grew up there
what a beautiful video. thnx for letting us follow u around. I was jealous of all that incredible food. the baby is so sweet!! Ozo so dedicated.

I noticed you boat is flagged in the US. How do you do (boat) insurance??
Thank you so much for sharing. We have watched every episode of yours since the beginning. We just bought a small 25 foot sailboat. We know we will never be able to go on life changing journeys you are sharing with us. It is awesome to see them through you guys. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Wow Sailor 🥳👍
yet another awesome chapter Thanks
We missed you guys! Hope the holidays were good to your family!
On a scale of 1 to 10 ((10 excellent place to cruise to) how do you rate Greece compared to Turkey?
Finally a normal Saturday morning. Hope you guys had a great Christmas!
Another fantastic video. The quality just keeps getting better and better!
Is it just me or is Isabella getting prettier by the episode and her personality is really shining.
Wish this one was longer otherwise it was perfection 🤗💞
Three weeks, and look at Isa! Time is going by fast… ❤
I love your videos and missed you guys so much!! Thanks for updating us. I thought I was subscribed & I wasn’t. But now I am! This was an excellent video and it was such a nice re-cap. I am going back to the beginning to watch any videos I may have missed. Hope you are all well! 💛💥🎉
Enjoyed your time in Greece. Isa has grown so much and is just adorable. ♥ Look forward to the future journeys.
GOBBLE GOBBLE!!!!! Luv ya AWESOME as always

Jordan…if you LOVE culture. Come to Asia! China, for example, has over 4,000 years of culture still remaining! It’s like stepping back in time!!
Türkiye is magnificent. Can't wait to see you enjoy it!
I love to hear you talk and explain different things, places and other countries 👍 😊
Beautiful. Peace and Joy to you.
Thanks very much
Yay you’re back! Missed your channel! Happy NY gorgeous family
Enjoyed hearing your perspective on sailing in Europe! I really enjoy seeing Isa smile! 😊
Missed your episodes!! Glad to see you again.
We missed you! Loved the video this morning (as always).
Welcome back, you have been missed😢
Well We'll! It's fantastic to visit with you guy's again after the holidays. Turkey ahy! Enjoy your Winter. Love Ya!
With all these countries you have sailed too, has there been any issues with Isso? No quarantine for the pup?
Hi, most didn't live by the water because of pirates back in the day and hid in the Mt villages
