you can only protect your kids so much...... they'll soon see how screwed up the world and the USA is for themselves...... things have changed for the worst, this isn't 1975 anymore...
OMG! The flashbacks! You start to forget how long you have followed this little ragtag group. Then you see those little rugrats 5-6 years ago and remember all those times! Grown man here and I cannot figure out where all these ninjas are that started chopping onions in my living room!!
Im crying because I know how genuinely close ya’ll are. You have raised beautiful, highly intelligent children whom are very prepared for Tonga. Time passes quickly and Thanksgiving will be here before you know it. Ya’ll are so blessed and I look forward to your adventure updates. ✌️
One don't realise how much time one has invested in Zatara, until someone leaves. Renée, what a lovely farewell video that was. Boxes of tissues later, farewell Jack and Kate. I look forward to catching up with your adventures in mid-Pacific.
Honestly, how sweet was it when Jack and Finn were holding each other crying and at the same time they both have their vlogging cameras pointed at themselves? I found a little bit of humor in that. But very sweet to see two brothers ( and the whole family) so tightly bonded.
I left on many adventures in my life. So exciting yet. ... I broke down into tears. Watching all 4 kiddos from the beginning of Zatara. Life is about growth and change. Keith and Renee, you have done a fantastic job with your family and the experiences you have provided. Thank you for allowing me to tag along on your journey. Hugs to all!
Just 4 years ago, how much younger everyone looked. You managed to reduce me to tears watching you all saying goodbye at the airport. The time they're away will fly by and you'll see them again very soon. Until then we will miss their presence in all your videos, you're a fantastically close family and a joy to watch and to be a part of your you tube family.
I knew I was going to lose it on this one. You’ve all taken such good care of each other, I know Jack and Kate are well prepared for their own adventures now. It’s been a privilege, and so much fun getting to spend time with you all. God speed! And much love from Brooklyn, New York.
I have never posted before but have watched every episode since you began your new life. I am really going to miss your young ones. It has been a pleasure watching them grow up into fine young adults. Tell all you children good luck in there Journey. Will miss seeing them every episode, but will still be watching every episode. This one made me cry. Look forward to the parent's new journey, thanks for all the pleasure over the years.
I went thru empty nest syndrome when my last kid left home! I cried for 3 mth but i was a single parent all i had was my dog Roxie! I am gonna miss seeing the kids on the boat but excited for them to start their own lives for sure!! I wish all of them the very best in life! They are some good kids! You have done very well on raising them! Thank you for sharing yur beautiful family with us! Ok now i am crying! 😭😭😭
Love your family bunches! Congrats to Anna! Wow a 4.0? A smart cookie! And Jack & Kate, have a grand time! It will fly by... The Zatara adventures have made the world a smaller place & more amazing place for me... And seeing your family bonds that span the globe is so heartwarming! Blessings to all the Z crew, wherever you roam! ❤️💙
BEST DECISION ! YOU MADE WAS 4 YOUR KIDS GROWING UP ON ZATARA , THEY ARE MUCH BETTER KNOWLEDGE BASE LIKE OTHER SAME AGE KIDS ! KNOWING : RESPECT & TRUST A MUST ! CONGRATULATIONS
The love you show for all your family means if at times you are apart, you are never apart. Thanks so much for letting us share your love and adventures.⛵
Oh no, oh no..... I have been crying this whole episode!! Have been following this channel for many years and feel part of this amazing Family !!! And so the years pass and our children fly the coup... I feel your heart Keith and Rene 💞
So very proud of Anna for her achievement. It’s crazy that I have been following you guys since the very beginning. You two have raised some amazing kids.
Finn is a real softy… that was very emotional, Finn s so talented with music… I don’t think he realises how good he is… I couldn’t believe. Have followed you for this long
This one was tough. It's difficult to say goodbye to our babies! Finn broke me when he hugged Kate. It's all so sad that they grow up and fly away and so wonderful to watch them spread their wings and become successful adults. You have a wonderful bond, something you don't see in all families. New exciting experiences to bring wonder and amazement, and a new life to mold to your liking. What more could you want in life? Safe travels Zatara crew. Still following - absolutely.
I cried with Keith the family like I was part of it. Never thought that I'd be so emotionally attached to people that I have never met. You guys are like distant family and I'm so proud to be in the Zatara family. Renee and Keith, you guys are so loving and caring. You should be proud of being such good parents and being an example and a light into the vast darkness we are surrounded every day. Thank You!
lukes moved in, now we'll find out he smokes pot, is lazy and does nothing all day until "2025 The DISAPPEARANCE".... what happened to Luke while Zatara was on a 30 day crossing.
Wow, what a tearjerker episode!! That was a tough goodbye for you all... BUT excited for everyone's future!! Thank you Sailing Zatara... awesome video as always!
*tears* Seeing your kids from years ago makes me want to rewind so I think I might just do that. Episode 1 here I come! Many thanks Whitaker Family - you are loved!
Renee, I have seen every single episode of Sailing Zatara. I must say, you knocked it out of the park with this video. THANK YOU so much for investing your valuable time to share your family life with all of us! Your editing is impeccable! Stay Awesome!
I just got home from a Bahama cruise. I started crying just reading the title. I cried thru the whole video. I remember when my daughter left for college, during covid. I thought I was gonna die. I'm crying for y'all. I'm gonna miss them so much. I know not more than you, but in a kind of weird way, y'all are my extended family. I am thankful Jack has a channel and will see Kate too and follow their adventures. It's gonna be the same for Finn. Again, my heart hurts for you all. If this reads weird, I'm sorry I'm trying to type through tears. ❤ much love.
I've watched you guys from the beginning! I actually got tears, watching you all have tears, seeing them off at the airport. What an amazing adventure Jack and Kate will have!
And the Emmy Award for best editing on a RUclips series goes to Renee. Sad to see Jack and Kate to move on with their live. But i think the best of this channel is still to come!
Renee is an awesome movie maker.... IF Hallmark was still Hallmark she would be a great asset to their family movies but they went in the wrong direction so screw them!!
Dammit Renée...I cried like a baby (50 year old male in Europe) at the farewell at the airport. Your family is so lovely and you have brought us all in to share your life with you so this got really emotional.
The old footage really made me think of how long I have been watching them grow up! Good luck y'all. I'll be waiting to hear those stories around Christmas! God Bless!
I reckon we're all gonna miss Kate & Jack soo bloody much! This episode was absolutely difficult ~ watching the Zatara Family go their separate ways! The Whitakers have become RUclips's "Sailing Family!" Many of your subscribers and friends, have truly taken to you all. I'm 26-years old and me girlfriend is 24-years, and we both just leaked tears for several minutes, watching you all say "Goodbye" at the airport. Bloody hell... that was difficult to watch mate! Then when you started flashing pictures of the kids as lil' tots, growing up on Zatara....That's when the flood gates opened! My goodness, has time flown by! We pray for a safe flight and journey to Kate & Jack, as they travel to Tonga. Enjoy Tonga, more importantly, ENJOY LIFE! To the rest of Zatara, safe passage on your cruise down South! Cheers from Margaret River, Western Australia 🇦🇺.
The flashbacks really put it in perspective how long your family has been sailing....and how long I have been living vicariously through you guys. Your videos have inspired my wife and I to make the plans to live the life we want in our own terms the way your family has. I look forward to the next chapter of Zatata as well as keeping up with Jack and Finns channels.
I don't cry at the movies, or Kleenex commercials, or any of the other cliches.. I cried when Fin lost it! I admire how much he feels life, loves his family.. I admire you for raising great human beings! I'm blessed to have 3 daughters that love each other and their parents! WOW what a beautiful family.. just WOW! I can't wait to see what you and Keith get up to. I want Fin to stay with y'all! I'm not ready for another good bye on Zatara!
Geez Rene, way to go playing with my emotions in this episode. I can't believe I'm admitting this, but this episode made me cry! You are the master story teller and your camera work just keeps getting better and better! I'm looking forward to the new chapters of sailing Zatara! I'm sure most of us will follow Jack and Kate on his channel.
This is why I will not get rid of our 2012 Jeep Wrangler - No electronics! I am excited about your next phase as our little birdies are starting the their next phase of life and flying out of the nest.
Say what! A small google search brings up the following for your Base model, Manual Trans. Engine Control Module (ECM), approx $1200.00. To "Prep" a vehicle buy good bicycles but think about tires and tubes or good footwear. Remember that whatever mode of man-made transportation will have a very short life. Just enough to possibly get you into trouble.

Power windows aren’t the electronics you need to worry about in an emp event. The electronics are computer that controls everything, engine, transmission, transfer case literally everything your vehicle does.
Man I have a 6 and 4 year old and I hope I instill enough love and confidence in them that they’re wanting to take these kinds of adventures on their own when they get older. Great job parents. You’ve raised strong, kind and compassionate humans that make this world a better place.
Man... I'm really gonna miss seeing Jack and Kate on Zatara! I think they brought a good personality to the channel... ;)
They were the best 🥹😁
Lmao that's funny.. all the best man 💯👊🏽
They were alright I guess
Good thing Jack is going to keep us updated with his videos 😉
This made me laugh, I was in tears. All the best
Amazing family life ...This old world would be much better off if we all were raised like these kids...

hahaha was wondering the same.
This wholesome family's growth and kindness are great to see.
One of the things I so admire about ALL OF YOU is you are NOT afraid to show affection and how how you love and care about each other. 😊
You have raised a tightly bonded family. Great job mom and dad! So blessed you are!
Wow! This video made me realize just how long I've been watching your channel. Congrats to the Graduate!
Im crying because I know how genuinely close ya’ll are. You have raised beautiful, highly intelligent children whom are very prepared for Tonga. Time passes quickly and Thanksgiving will be here before you know it. Ya’ll are so blessed and I look forward to your adventure updates. ✌️
Well said!! 👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥹
Never met you guys , but I've watched you for years, this video made our family cry, good luck everyone
Now THAT was a bit of a heart squeeze. Glad to see the “kids” growing up and moving on in their lives. You did a FANTASTIC job Keith and Renee!
I've been watching since you first got the mono haul ... Crazy how fast times flys by !!! Safe travels to everyone !!
Wow, I can't believe how fast they have grown up. I remember Kate falling out of the tree and Jack being a young boy.
I tried not to cry...but I couldn't help it! You sure have raised great kids!
One don't realise how much time one has invested in Zatara, until someone leaves. Renée, what a lovely farewell video that was. Boxes of tissues later, farewell Jack and Kate. I look forward to catching up with your adventures in mid-Pacific.
Renee rocks!!!!🎉
Don't be sad Keith and Renee. Be so very proud of the fabulous family you have both raised .🥲👋❤
Aww man! As if seeing Jack and Kate leave wasn't bad enough we had to relive Anna leaving 😢. Good luck to all of you on your adventures.
Gonna miss seeing the kids. You have to be proud of the young humans you have raised. Seem wonderfully grounded people. Love the channel.
As a momma, i cried watching this video… good luck jack and Kate.. keep us posted
Honestly, how sweet was it when Jack and Finn were holding each other crying and at the same time they both have their vlogging cameras pointed at themselves? I found a little bit of humor in that. But very sweet to see two brothers ( and the whole family) so tightly bonded.
I left on many adventures in my life. So exciting yet. ... I broke down into tears. Watching all 4 kiddos from the beginning of Zatara.

Omg. Watching and crying along with you all…. Job well done mom & dad!

Renee, the kids were so cute when they were younger! You are all such a loving family! Thanks for another, tearful, but fun adventure!
Sad to see Jack and Kate leave. Looking forward to seeing their adventures on Jack's channel.
Where are they going?
I cried too. Literally. As empty nesters we felt the joy or our kids growing up and moving on along with heartbreak of that very same thing.
I have never posted before but have watched every episode since you began your new life. I am really going to miss your young ones. It has been a pleasure watching them grow up into fine young adults. Tell all you children good luck in there Journey. Will miss seeing them every episode, but will still be watching every episode. This one made me cry. Look forward to the parent's new journey, thanks for all the pleasure over the years.
Hats off to Keith and Renee for raising such great kids! That bond with the kids is AMAZING! You have a great family!

I think we all have a bit of dust in our eyes.🥲
Finn is a real softy… that was very emotional, Finn s so talented with music…
I don’t think he realises how good he is…
I couldn’t believe. Have followed you for this long
You have a wonderful family and raised your children right. Thanks for taking us along and will always watch your show!!!
Yall are such a beautiful family. That goodbye made me cry.
Geez, I realize how long I've been following you guys. Way before Anna left for school. Damn. And those are some nice kids; I'd miss them too.
You guys did so well. You've inspired so many parents to do better. Thanks for showing us your world.
Loved seeing the old shots of the kids..... So special!!
I'm crying. Oh geez. Blessings on Jack & Kate, and soon for Fin. Safe travels!
It's good that jack is not afraid/ashamed to cry...That healthy, even if hard.
That one was a tear jerker! Jake, Kate you will be missed on the boat but can't wait to see your new adventures!

So glad they chose to go together. You had a lot of fans crying in this video. Think of all the new adventures. 💖🌴🙏

I cried like a baby! I can't believe how long I've followed y'all. Good on y'all. Good on y'all.
It’s going to weird without Jack and Kate! It’s ok to talk to us when you’re sad Renee! We will be missing them too😉
Loved the look back when the kids were so young. You guys have been doing this for a while now. Good life.

Can’t wait for the next chapter of naked and afraid!! 😱
I'm not afraid 😂
NASTY!!!! You wanna see Keiths chunky hairy ass on top of poor skin n bones Renee...... Talk about GROSS!!!!

Happy safe travels!!!
Wonderful kids, wonderful family. Best sailing videos on the web. Thank you for sharing your lives with all of us!
Aaah...even I'm crying. 😊😊
That was absolutely beautiful, heartbreaking, wonderful and inspirational. What an amazing family you are. Love and hugs to all.
i love how it's one of the most difficult & touching family moments but they're both filming it hahaha
its fucked up
Congratulations Anna and the Zatara Family! Always enjoy your channel. 😊
I can't believe it's been 4 years since Anna left the boat, feels like it was just the other day.
Best wishes and safe travels to all the Whitaker’s!!!!
