It’s funny you mention that, because especially on long passages like this we’ll sometimes sit out on deck and talk about “what we would do if” we saw a tsunami, or if we saw an alien ship, or got approached by a pirate ship, or saw some supernatural thing in the sky, etc… It’s fun and helps pass the time and we sort of connect as a family sharing what we’d think about wild crazy things happening! We actually did that on this passage but I’m afraid to spoil it by pulling the cameras out; times like that are very special and intimate for us as a family. ~Renee💕
(I realize I didn’t actually answer your question 🤦🏼♀️ I think we all have different ideas of what we’d do… lots of scrambling and praying I imagine!)
@@SailingZatara I can’t imagine there is much you could do except pray and turn into the wave. But huge waves like that while out at sea and not in a storm is not something would happen maybe once in a lifetime.
LOL! I love how Keith watches the boys, calmly, not saying a word, doing his own job, while the boys are about to lose the sail 😂. Great fatherly patience, Keith!
Just retired, unwilling, I was diagnosed with cirrhosis and it has affected every aspect of life. I’ve worked all of my life and always something to do, now I cannot. I recently found your family channel and now I have something to look forward to. I was a retired Peer Counselor for a major health network treating pts with Hep C. Now I’m the guy on the couch 😂! Thanks Whitaker Family and GOD Bless. I pray for you often. You guys are such an amazing family!
Finn was rocking out to Stevie Ray Vaughn ❤️ and mom had the lyrics covered😂😂😂 Finns shocked face was too cute! Renee singing her part 🥰 God bless the Zatara family, much love from Texas USA 🇺🇸
You know I don't recall these guys having to do a major rebuild. I do recall them being super selective of which yacht they bought. Seems it took them a year to find it.
Spring has finally sprung here in northern Minnesota and I think all the ice is off the lakes. Winds came and pushed several foot high ice dams into historic cabins at Rutgers resort in Bemidji……… And then there is the Z crew sailing with dolphins, breathing in the sea air and visiting a new country ❤️ So much diversity in the world, thank you Lord for your creation ! Blessings
My family and I will be stopping at 209 for some wings and things on our way back from Franz Jevne and Big Bog SP, heading home further West of you. We love Bemidji SP and picking wild blueberries and raspberries while hiking on the trails.
@@jordang1570 wow, it’s a small world 🌎! 209 is a great place to stop, fun atmosphere and good food 😊 I live in Lake George where there are a lot of blueberries 🫐, it should be a good year for them, it didn’t warm up enough for things to bloom so hopefully all the hard frosts will be over by the time things do bloom and we have moisture, for now anyway 🥰 You’ll have to come back for blueberry pickin’ ! I agree, Minnesota state parks are pretty amazing, if you haven’t been to Itasca to see the headwaters, it’s worth the trip !!! I hope you have had a wonderful time up there and have safe travels home :)
Another winner! I’m only a couple of months away from being in real time with your videos. I have been binge watching you since I discovered your channel 1 week ago. Sheer enjoyment! Thank you.
I don't understand your "sailing together" comment about Aquarius. Sidebar: I am a sailor, although on a much smaller monohull and in Florida coastal waters. But when I go on a trip with another boat, we stay within visual range. My boat is almost always lighter and faster, so in order to sail "together" I reduce sail. That way, if either of us has a problem, the other boat is within rescue, or at least assistance, distance. Granted, we are likely closer to other boats and the Coast Guard, but still, it's a safety issue. Since Zatari is faster, why did you leave first? Why are you knowingly sailing faster than Aquarius, thus increasing the distance between you? So if one of you hits a just below the surface steel cargo container and rips a four foot gash in one (or both) of your hulls, how long before the other boat can either catch up or go back and search for survivors? Or, what happens if one boat is hit by lightning and all radios, batteries and starter motors are fried? How would you find out that boat is in distress, and if you do, how do you find it? Perhaps these are not really issues because you both have plans and know how to overcome such potential emergencies. If so that's great. However, you said you were sailing together, for, I infer, mutual safety/support, but you're not sailing together. And, you did not say how you could mutually support each other over ever increasing distances. I would really like to know you handle this because I would want to incorporate your plans into my safety plan.
I am endlessly fascinated that after all this time and especially given how old Jack is that Keith has not completely handed the boat over to his son for weeks at a time to make sure he could command the vessel in the event of an emergency. Keith is an extraordinarily skilled human being: I doubt there's anything he couldn't fix. He knows how to fly, he knows how to command a boat and it just seems to me like in addition to school it would be fantastic if all three children were really learning how to commandeer a boat on an open passage and skillfully maneuver it into any kind of a difficult port. These kids have been on that boat way too long to not know how to do that. They obviously know how to handle the saild, rigging and various aspects of the boat, but again I'm just surprised that we never see Keith completely hand the boat over to Jack for a couple of weeks.
A woman I know thinks Jack is a handsome boy. I think he looks more like mum than dad but looks aren't all. He seems to be a kind, good natured guy. A credit to both parents. Africa is huge. I hope the whole family get to see a little bit of it in safety. Lots of places I wouldn't go to, a few I would. Namibia seems fine at present. They have South African friends to advise on the area. One thing is sure, this family are living the dream.
We love your show! You guys are all awesome! The way I'm going, i should be on the ocean cruising by the time im 55 years old. Until then i guess I'll live vicariously through your beautiful family. Thanks for sharing!
Just a shout out to Renee for the beautiful late evening videography then at 14:53 the low light post sunset glow just set the mood of relaxed sailing. 🎥
Best music in this episode! Love the background rock music, Leila (by the boys) and Reeling in the years by Steely Dan! Love to your family. See you in the water one day! xx
What would Keith ever do without the help of two strong boys! You all are blessed to have each other. Your right Renée, the young men are handsome and your baby Kate is a beautiful 🤩 young lady!
My family has been following your family’s adventures for years now and even inspired me to begin our own adventure nothing like yours but left a good job to take a take a job building wind turbines that allowed us to get to travel the country. My wife and i were nervous about taking our 4 kids out across the country and away from everything we knew but despite all the ups and downs of traveling the country we created this connection with each other that only can be understood when all you have is each other away from the rat race of the structured normality. Our next step is to try and begin our own adventure on the water. But as a fellow fan of the movie the count of monte cristo have you ever taken your travels to where zatara received his name ?
I Love your Vlogs, & often just pick any of them, like ducking & diving. You really have such an amazing positive Family’ You uplift my days with laughter on your travels & Life as it should be lived” Thank You!
@@SailingZatara Hi guys! My name is Paolo, Emilio was our rented boat name at Seychelles! I look forward to meet you when you will be in Med/Italy. Pleae note my daughter is alredy fall in love with Jack!!! Teenagers are really difficult sometimes:))))
Greetings from Puerto Rico. Love your videos and amazing stories. God bless you all!!! Hope you spend your next new year celebration in the island. You are always welcomed!!
You guys are all ROCKSTARS‼️🤩 Keith, your mechanical skills along with wisdom on how to outfit & refit that boat never ceases to AMAZE me. Renee, you are such a fantastic director/editor! LOVED THE MUSIC & sunsets in this episode! Kate, I don't know if you realize how impressed I am by not only the beautiful & capable young women you've grown into, but also your sweet, congenial attitude! Jack & Finn, you guys are so athletic, strong, musical, beautiful inside & out! 💖This channel‼️(Missin' Anna tho, best wishes to her 😉)
Wahoo mcnuggets. Live music. Keith got the navigating down. Almost like takin a break between the action. Can't wait to see the next stop. Kate's hair's looking good. You aren't missing anything back here in the states.
Sailing is nice and peaceful. No engine noise, vibrations or smell and you save money. That is why performance cats are so nice, sailing in low strength winds is the best, gliding along in harmony with the environment.
I rememner when the annual Sardine run starts down the East coast down Durban way there are dolphin's and sharks on a feeding frenzy,catching the fish ny the bucket loads.
Best dive I ever did was on Misali off Pemba. Heard there was a bit of coral bleaching but hopefully you guys get out that way as it's really beautiful and peaceful. Some amazing wall dives over that way too.
Well said about the joy-sucking job. We ditched the house, the job, unnecessary household "stuff", packed up my dog, my spouse, our sanity, and travel up and down the U.S. East Coast full time as 100% full time liveaboards and never once looked back and not once second guessed our decision.
We love your show and you guys are such an inspiration! We took your first master class and learned so much. Now we are blessed to have found a 47’ sail catamaran to purchase and we will be living this wonderful lifestyle on the water soon!
Ah watching my favourite show every week I'm good to go !!! Ive thrown away the Netflix subscription and its lovely to see the crew of the Minnow ... oh right thats Gilligans island I'm thinking of ... hahaha thank you Crew of the Zatara !!!! Weeeeeehheeeeeeee !!!!
Hi! We've been binge watching your channel from the beginning and are now caught up! Love your lifestyle, real life experiences, struggles and joys! Thank you for sharing. We get to see places we Will most likely not ever visit, get to know your family, and experience this truly amazing lifestyle with you! By your blessings, we are blessed! Sadly we now have to wait a whole week now, like everyone else for the next episode. Lol May God bless you and your family, and keep you safe! Marilyn and Garry C.
Have you guys been to the Canary Islands? The island of Tenerife, especially the village of Taganana, is gorgeous. The food is delicious. I daydream about the papas arrugadas a dish that is unique to the islands. The best was from the small restaurant in the village of Taganana. Hope you can check it out sometime!
You all are so truly blessed, to get to enjoy Gods beautiful creation of the ocean, island’s and fish. Such a good way to live away from the stresses of everyday life. Safe travels and God bless.👍🏼😘
I am not sure why boats have abandoned conventional spinnakers and poles in favour of exclusively asymmetric sails.. Your passage highlighted the limitations of asymmetric sails while going downwind.. I not only carry and use conventional spinnakers with a pole I have a whisker pole to pole out the Genoa downwind if I chose to do so - both are fast and allow for dead down wind sailing..
Must complement your videography and combinations with music. Well captured footage. Have been binge watching as I only picked up on your channel after your meeting with Henriette (CRF250) in Namibia 😎
@18:35 environmental science is a fascinating field of study or even just knowledge, took four semesters of it in college to satisfy my pre reqs. The amount of shiznit we take for granted as far as weather goes is bonkers… for instance 100% humidity and falling temps? No precipitation without atmospheric particulates
Renee, I noticed your thinly veiled joy at Keiths new South African accent in this episode! It made me realize that in such an isolated environment that you guys have, you could basically have all the kids grow up with a South African accent.. if you and Keith just stick to the plan and speak in nothing but accent for say three years. Or perhaps a British posh accent. Or Klingon. It would be a bit time consuming, but the opportunities are endless!
Man seems like time in the Seychelles went by quick. I pray the African adventures are just as fun 🙏. Definitely looking forward to your safari, and hopefully you were able to manage securing a good reliable vehicle for your time there
So wish we would have seen this before your class in May! We will be in your next class! We have a daughter Tara who is 16. My oldest daughter Deleigh whom I raised on my own since Deleigh was 2. Met Brian my amazing husband when she was 17. He had no children so at 40 we had our precious Tara! I was raised on the Gulf of Mexico and spent many days at sea! My Dad own his own charter fishing boat and in the safety boat industry for offshore rigs. Not sure at 57 and 63 and a 16 year old should embark on such an amazing way (I long to live) a reality! Y’all want to rent your extra room out as an air in boat?! If nothing else it will be a fun jam session and fishing! Happy sailing! ❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
As always, love watching your videos. Keith, I'm never going to be able to join you guys 'out there on the water', unless I hit a super lottery jackpot or something, and even then, probably won't. However, I still enjoy watching your videos and learning about sailing. So, since you guys are already in Tanzania and I don't expect any 'new' sailing videos for a while, would it be possible the next time you're doing passage to do a run down on all the sails you are using, how they're a controlled, what kind of wind angles you need for each and how they all work. As a pilot, (not current in 40 years) I realize that these sails are actually more like wingfoils, but others won't understand that, so a primer on how a sail actually works would be cool, too. I still want to know what instrument Kate is going to start playing. The family that plays music together stays together. :D
in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada we are paying 1.87 a liter to witch is equivalent to around 7.48 a gallon. So prices are up all over the place..and it hurts... John
Woohoo is my favorite! Now you just need our famous tater sauce! How do make yours or do you use it! My husband and brother are guitarist, loving the jam sessions! ❤️🙏🏻🎣
TIP!! Get an 8 qt Instapot with air dryer! $99 at walmart! You can make your fried fish just as tasty with fewer calories and way less mess and work! Your home will stay cooler too! ❤❤❤❤
One trick we learned in the USN (on a ship with less than great fresh water makers (evaporators on a big ship) is that one of the best soaps you can use (for a nice fresh water/rain water shower) is Zest soap (seems to work better (and the lather rinses off better) in not very much water (it also seems to cut the salt if you get in the ocean).
That's a nice boat but it has alot a moving part and alot a technology on it. How long could you make that vessel work if you couldn't get support for it? Parts, internet and the big one fuel
How did no one comment on Keith's "It's gonna be tremendous. It's gonna be tremendous" @26:53? The voice, the fingers and arms... hilarious! Keith turned to Renee laughing...
i love everything you are doing great family bonding. i have started to bond more with my family because we were split qhen i was 16 because we had some problems that reached a stage where i picked up a knive and my mum had to call police because me and my father would get in brawls. I had enough i said touch me or anyone gonna stab u,pretty dumb stuff from my side. I love my mum and she me but she always apoligizes for our childhood but she did so much and i love her dearly and this is one of our dreams to go out and sailing.
Love you guys! When Keith went see the quid skirts privates and said Ahhhh , LOL I LAUGHED OUT LOUD. I waited all day to watch this now. God bless each of you. Love you so much! Thank you for each of your videos and fun each of you have!
I want to take your blue water cruising master class but I don’t have a fb profile anymore. Are there any other resources (books, websites, etc) that provide at least some of the same information you’re presenting?
COG is not really "heading"; better to call it "track". It is not necessarily where the boat is pointing if there is any current running or any significant leeway.

Have you ever thought about what you’d do if you saw a big tsunami wave coming your way?
It’s funny you mention that, because especially on long passages like this we’ll sometimes sit out on deck and talk about “what we would do if” we saw a tsunami, or if we saw an alien ship, or got approached by a pirate ship, or saw some supernatural thing in the sky, etc… It’s fun and helps pass the time and we sort of connect as a family sharing what we’d think about wild crazy things happening!

@@SailingZatara you've found it....ruclips.net/video/Jy3vzdtiXF4/видео.html
tsunamis only raise the water hard close to shore. if your in a boat as a tsunami approaches the safest thing to do is to head out to sea.
Keith comes by opens the hatch cuz its hot, " Why is that open ?!?!" closes hatch. IM ROLLING😂😂😂😂
LOL! I love how Keith watches the boys, calmly, not saying a word, doing his own job, while the boys are about to lose the sail 😂. Great fatherly patience, Keith!
👌👍
I will never forget when Finn said, "What if these dolphins are the ones following us forever." when he was young. It was so sweet!
Just retired, unwilling, I was diagnosed with cirrhosis and it has affected every aspect of life. I’ve worked all of my life and always something to do, now I cannot.

now you see how evil your company is.. I guess Karma does happen ....
Love the boys passion for playing the blues.
Finn was rocking out to Stevie Ray Vaughn ❤️ and mom had the lyrics covered😂😂😂 Finns shocked face was too cute! Renee singing her part 🥰 God bless the Zatara family, much love from Texas USA 🇺🇸
It was Eric Clapton he was rockin out too. I believe. ;)
Both! There were two music scenes!
Pride and Joy
Song by Stevie Ray Vaughan, this is one of my favorite’s 💕
It amazes me how Renee keeps everyone straight.
Crusing the Blue.....We can feel the happiness coming through. Safe journey to you all!
I’ve never gotten to appreciate just how beautiful Africa is until now
just check out the many African content makers on youtube
Thank you
Good to see a sailing channel that actually sails. 90% of the other channels stay on the dock or in the yard and do repairs or rebuilds for years.
You know I don't recall these guys having to do a major rebuild. I do recall them being super selective of which yacht they bought. Seems it took them a year to find it.
Some ppl like to see the renovation. Personly also enjoy the sailing part.
For years 🤣
Or they just show their wife in bikinis
@@mrwhite7222 Do you have a problem with wives in Bikinis! It's a sailing channel!
Spring has finally sprung here in northern Minnesota and I think all the ice is off the lakes. Winds came and pushed several foot high ice dams into historic cabins at Rutgers resort in Bemidji………

The amount of shiznit we take for granted as far as weather goes is bonkers… for instance 100% humidity and falling temps? No precipitation without atmospheric particulates
Renee, I noticed your thinly veiled joy at Keiths new South African accent in this episode! It made me realize that in such an isolated environment that you guys have, you could basically have all the kids grow up with a South African accent.. if you and Keith just stick to the plan and speak in nothing but accent for say three years. Or perhaps a British posh accent. Or Klingon. It would be a bit time consuming, but the opportunities are endless!
Really enjoyable tune at 7min or so with the footage well done thank you!
Man seems like time in the Seychelles went by quick. I pray the African adventures are just as fun 🙏. Definitely looking forward to your safari, and hopefully you were able to manage securing a good reliable vehicle for your time there
I wish you many pleasant cruises and always a hand's breadth of water under the keel!
I'm really diggin' the music on your B-Roll segments. Great job Renee.
So wish we would have seen this before your class in May! We will be in your next class! We have a daughter Tara who is 16. My oldest daughter Deleigh whom I raised on my own since Deleigh was 2. Met Brian my amazing husband when she was 17. He had no children so at 40 we had our precious Tara! I was raised on the Gulf of Mexico and spent many days at sea! My Dad own his own charter fishing boat and in the safety boat industry for offshore rigs. Not sure at 57 and 63 and a 16 year old should embark on such an amazing way (I long to live) a reality! Y’all want to rent your extra room out as an air in boat?! If nothing else it will be a fun jam session and fishing! Happy sailing! ❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
Beautiful viedo guys Rennie your shots of the sunset were spot on looking forward to seeing Africa..tropics are the best as far as I'm concerned 🏝
really liked the music this episode
As always, love watching your videos. Keith, I'm never going to be able to join you guys 'out there on the water', unless I hit a super lottery jackpot or something, and even then, probably won't. However, I still enjoy watching your videos and learning about sailing.
So, since you guys are already in Tanzania and I don't expect any 'new' sailing videos for a while, would it be possible the next time you're doing passage to do a run down on all the sails you are using, how they're a controlled, what kind of wind angles you need for each and how they all work. As a pilot, (not current in 40 years) I realize that these sails are actually more like wingfoils, but others won't understand that, so a primer on how a sail actually works would be cool, too.
I still want to know what instrument Kate is going to start playing. The family that plays music together stays together. :D
in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada we are paying 1.87 a liter to witch is equivalent to around 7.48 a gallon. So prices are up all over the place..and it hurts... John
Woohoo is my favorite! Now you just need our famous tater sauce! How do make yours or do you use it! My husband and brother are guitarist, loving the jam sessions! ❤️🙏🏻🎣
Love the video....whats the background music with the guitar as you leave the Seychelles? )
That’s pretty cool, out there sailing on the ocean blue. It’s fun just watching your channel. Take care and have a good one. 👍👍👍❤️Happy Sailing
TIP!! Get an 8 qt Instapot with air dryer! $99 at walmart! You can make your fried fish just as tasty with fewer calories and way less mess and work! Your home will stay cooler too! ❤❤❤❤
One trick we learned in the USN (on a ship with less than great fresh water makers (evaporators on a big ship) is that one of the best soaps you can use (for a nice fresh water/rain water shower) is Zest soap (seems to work better (and the lather rinses off better) in not very much water (it also seems to cut the salt if you get in the ocean).
Very entertaining great shots take care Australia
The boy's priceless 🎶. Thank you for the upload so much enjoyed it.
Another excellent video. Thanks Zatara!
What do you think of the seawinds catamarans? Early 2000?
That's a nice boat but it has alot a moving part and alot a technology on it. How long could you make that vessel work if you couldn't get support for it? Parts, internet and the big one fuel
Thanks for a great vlog. But, I think Chris may have used Jimi Hendrix’s LIttle Wing for inspiration. His riff is quite similar. Ask Finn!
How did no one comment on Keith's "It's gonna be tremendous. It's gonna be tremendous" @26:53? The voice, the fingers and arms... hilarious! Keith turned to Renee laughing...
Flocking Awesome !
i think one thing that differentiates you guys is leaving comfortable places in favor of adventure
i love everything you are doing great family bonding. i have started to bond more with my family because we were split qhen i was 16 because we had some problems that reached a stage where i picked up a knive and my mum had to call police because me and my father would get in brawls. I had enough i said touch me or anyone gonna stab u,pretty dumb stuff from my side. I love my mum and she me but she always apoligizes for our childhood but she did so much and i love her dearly and this is one of our dreams to go out and sailing.
Love you guys! When Keith went see the quid skirts privates and said Ahhhh , LOL I LAUGHED OUT LOUD. I waited all day to watch this now. God bless each of you. Love you so much! Thank you for each of your videos and fun each of you have!
You are all such a wonderful family we just love you all to pieces ❤️❤️❤️
Hi guys love the videos and keep up the good work love you guys
I want to take your blue water cruising master class but I don’t have a fb profile anymore. Are there any other resources (books, websites, etc) that provide at least some of the same information you’re presenting?
I look to day a lot Your clips ! A lot by motor no in the wind! You are a schip for natuur Way you do this ? Thanks Jacqueline
COG is not really "heading"; better to call it "track". It is not necessarily where the boat is pointing if there is any current running or any significant leeway.
The boys have great taste in music!
Really hope u get to explore Zanzibar too. Esp the North, around Nungwi Beach.
Beautiful b-roll - well done !!
