a lovely big family that we're growing
back there and yeah you guys are just
the best and you make our world
wonderful so it's just great to have you
thanks yours closer to our little family
unit thank you very much so on to my
second point which is a fairly major
disaster that we've had on board as far
as YouTube world goes and footage a
backup hard drive died a couple of
months ago and we haven't been able to
replace it because we are in a remote
area in the Pacific and you have in our
main hard drive brand-spanking-new main
hard drive is now playing up and it is
holding our footage hostage and yeah we
can't access the last six months the
most incredible last six months of our
footage and bring it to you yeah and so
we have sailed many many miles to get to
a place where we thought we might be
able to find someone who could fix it
unfortunately no one out here has even
seen the kind of hard drive that we
currently have no success no success on
that one I'm afraid yeah we are going to
have to send the hard drive to a
forensic data specialist
and yeah that is as expensive as a
science it's frightening so yeah we have
cried mini itea on board serie yeah best
footage yet yeah this has got to be the
most incredible last six months we have
had the most incredible time we have
stood on Satan's leer and looked into
the belly of the earth and it blew up at
us like crazy we have hung out with
tribes of people who live on remote
islands that hardly ever see contact
with the other out of human world we
have learnt these traditional hunting
techniques where you have swam with
tanks and cannons has been really insane
and we have had the most heartfelt mind
blindly open human experiences yeah it's
been an incredible time the women have
been so excited to bring this to you
because I know that some of you people
never get to experience that what we
have just experienced in the last six
months because you know you just you
either be on a boat and out in these
remote areas that we've just been to it
and yeah we are gutted to say the least
that we can't bring us footage to just
now but well get it they will get it
there we have made the decision not to
put the hard drive in the post because
we actually really value this footage so
much we are going to sail it across an
ocean and hand-deliver it to the
forensic data dude and he's going to
bring it back to us and yeah so we have
a Whizzer window two days time and it's
gonna be about six to eight weeks before
we can get the new series - yeah I'm
really sorry about that Bobby had a
whack for a little vision videos are
going to now trip out of sequence
and I know
it's going to Mac with some of your
brains because there's some people out
there that really need to have our
videos in sequence sorry about that
patience will be your greatest ally here
it's been hours yeah so we have we're
switching to real-time now and there
will be a couple of weeks when there
won't be any footage I'm sorry about
that
there's nothing we can do about that
filming and editing in real time when
there's just one editor it just it just
is a nightmare so please be patient with
us please hang with us know that we have
some very very special products coming
your way and yeah hang with us yeah so
we are now going to switch you into
real-time this video is got some good
information there for people who are
looking to get out into cruising and for
those of you who may be a little bit
stale or
yeah this need a bit of jigging in your
mindset
oh yeah
Island time radio to the video we hope
you enjoyed it and we shall see you very
soon
Champa Nell
a life sterling the world celebrates
freedom and adventure
it's also a life where you live in close
quarters with others and where your days
become intricately entwined weather can
depict mood and relationships can be
tested the question for many is how to
navigate these unchartered waters so
we've heard of your comments that we're
like the eternally happy channel and for
the most part we are but we do have our
moments and I've heard from our patrons
that a lot of you only see your
partner's on on night times or on
weekends and you're wondering how on
earth you'd cope as we do living 24
hours of the day 365 days of the year on
a tiny floating home reality is
sometimes cruising in remote locations
sometimes you won't see anybody for
weeks that's it so how do we cope what's
our secret patience patience patience is
a very good skill to have down as a very
patient man I'm a very patient man yeah
I on the other hand have had to develop
the skill when I was a kid actually in
school I used to always get the patience
as a virtual card and it is to drive me
bonkers I just want everything done
right now but yeah I've had to develop
that skill over the years and I highly
recommend it a very useful tool patience
so we both actually agree that the
number one key to any adventurous life
is mindset so developing a can-do
attitude can go a long way towards the
heavy boat life because you know it can
get really tough out here at times yeah
sometimes you just gotta roll with the
punches and focus on the lesson
that's it because reality is is that
Rolly Anchorage's and being constantly
on the move and gear failures can really
niggle at you over the long term gear
failure I know you fail yeah so yes a
positive upbeat attitude when the going
gets tough will go a long way to keeping
morale high so what's our next tip boy
[Music]
okay so practically speaking upskill
yourself be open to learn you know for
many of you this is a whole new
adventure right so treat it that way
approaches life with curiosity and their
willingness to learn yes we caught up
and said that it's one person's dream
and the other one follows along for love
get on board just love it
you know my love
if you don't know how to learn to drive
the tender it'll give you confidence
and freedom
look imagine if your partner had all the
skills but they were down with
seasickness or they had a broken line'
or heaven forbid they were lost
overboard now these aren't odd
situations they do happen so would you
know how to get yourself and your boat
back to shore safely so share the
responsibility learn basic navigation
learn how to set the sails take the helm
learn how to control the boat in all
kinds of weather and learn how to
operate the VHS copy that rubber ducky
the eagle is on its way over yes it
often takes the pressure off when both
of you are capable and makes them much
happier sailing Radio I better get a
wiggle on come on honey
so let's talk about fear it can be a
powerful emotion for some people right
but I
that you can control fear through action
so if there's something that freaks you
out about being on board push your
boundaries and learn about it and that
way you can D power that fear emotion it
could be the bite healing you know you
can detail the mind put a roof in and
it'll certainly make for much more
silence that's it so work through these
things practically on board if you're
both confident in your boat handling
skills it'll make for much happier
sailing and less strain on the
relationship
[Music]
wondering how you gonna get with kids on
board that's it
are they gonna drive you buggers it's
possible we have made a lot of kids
boats and they all seem to hang together
which is really cool so the kids get to
interact with each other and they get to
do lots of projects and lots of cool
stuff together it's a really good life
for them you know some kids that we've
met are really avid photographers some
are really science-based surfing and
they all get to hang together which is
really neat
so yeah our website has got some citizen
science projects on it that they could
get involved in and you know you can
give them responsibilities on board and
there's always going to the beach and
doing some shell collecting yeah so some
of the most well-rounded kids that we've
met are those who hooked on board
awesome life the kids they'll grow and
expand other ways that you've never
dreamed of remember to take time off the
boat for us it's time
that fills the soul

like minded for you remember to get
social right it can be really powerful
kicking around with like-minded people
sharing stories over a bonfire we're in
a groovy place like this

ready that's it buddy good let's go get
a beer
all right
