Good info. But sounds complicated. I looked briefly into it and saw the Dellware thought it sounded a bit odd - good thing the lawyer brought it up. I figure if yr boat is registered with America then you can have firearms on board without too much trouble, good for pirates etc... US with all their taxes want to give the money to their corrupt buddy Dictator Zelensky & his cronies to stuff their pockets. How bout register with Russia and Russian insurance, the insurance would b cheap / honest and the way things are going print out a Russian passport etc... with picture of nuclear weapon going off - and any prospective country should be bowing before you - dusting the walkway in front of you with feathers etc......

Love this, yes, I know it's been delivered, but as a shopper who's totally into heat pumps, solar and hybrid drive, I love it.

Truly marvelous, what an interesting episode.

Marshall Islands has always been my choice for a registration. When the time comes, I will go with your lawyer. Good information. Good choice for a Flag. Nice looking flag too.

Canadian yacht insurance, easy to get but with major limitation if you are on the Pacific. You can only cruise between Tacoma and Juneau and 20 NM west of the mouth of the Straight of Juan De Fuca. 1 company will allow more range after 5 years with them but you must arrange that before departing your home port. The same insurance providers will let you sail from the Alaska Yukon border on the Arctic Ocean to the Caribbean from day 1 of your insurance, no 5 year wait. Because the insurance has a hate on for my home region I will never flag a yacht in Canada, the Government lets them discriminate without repercussion.

Stay in the Philippines you’re doing a big favor to the country promoting their cottage industry

lmao you pay now

AG 1 sorry it has wheat grass in it l. You cannot digest wheat grass that is food we don’t have enough stomachs for, like a cow. Go to pub med and research wheat grass. Waste of your money.

i’m not sure about jason’s hair.

AG-1, lol.

Just to make it more interesting. In reality The Marshall Islands register is actually in Delaware :-)! Most flags of convenience are used to save money on tax and evade regulations the companies technically give up on protection by the flag state's navy - not usually a problem. I have to say the chances of the Marshall Islands Navy turning up if you get in trouble. At somepoint someone may well get fed up with the flags of convenience and legislate on it.

You've done an exceptional job of explaining why!

Your jerky video editing makes my eyes hurt.

TLDW; Money

To me, you two are living on a waterborne UFO. I grew up sailing on a 50' topsail schooner with my dad. That would make me an 80yr old purist, but I find your cat fascinating nonetheless. Sail on!!!! (Loved your narrow boat adventure as well) Dave Hard, in landlocked Colorado

Love this episode…..learn about cashew processing, Phillippines, value of relationships, etc! Thank you! And Nikki, need to know your secret to having salon looking hair while in hot, humid, and salty environments. Ya’ll are the best!!!

What the heck laptop is that (dual screen and mousepad?)

I would have thought that you would only be required to pay the tax when the boat entered th USA. At least thats how it works for Australia. I cant take my boat to Australia for a few more years to reduce tge boats value. In the mean time theres the world to explore

This was an excellent episode. I am deeply appreciative of the effort that you expended to connect with local communities. For so many people, especially us Americans, this is transformative knowledge. Thank you.

Why'd you spend so much money and no interior helm? This is an ocean goer, correct? I can't imagine subjecting to nasty squalls outside.

Thanks for the videos!

Well, I'm a little confused because the US doesn't have a sales tax on boats (or on anything). Each state levies a sales tax. I bought my boat in, and my home port is in, Rhode Island, which does not have a tax on boats. Despite the fact that my boat is a USCG documented vessel (like your previous boat), the state can require me to register it with them (and RI does). That means I have to pay a registration fee, based on length, every 2 years, and have to display a registration sticker, but I do not put a registration number on my boat because it is a documented vessel. I have, up until now, cruised exclusively in the US waters, but I have been looking at the difficulty of getting insurance for outside the US waters, and you are not understating it (especially for a 45 year old boat like mine).

wow... that's just wonderful sir raul. I didnt know that cashew produce is such a valuable agriproduct. Goodluck on your business sir. And thank you Gone with the Wynns channels in featuring this...

Its something they look for in Florida.... a car or boat spending more than 90 days in the state without registering w/ the state.... Just be aware if you ever end up there.

humans REALLY know how to make things complicated.

Consider Using plant gel growing medium instead of soil.

It's unnatural and unhealthy to live on a boat. Also, it's expensive, difficult and hazardous. Oh and did I mention how bad it is for the environment? The creation of these menageries is horribly toxic. Sure, they make for great videos because people are so board with their lives that they watch them but... is it worth it? lol

More importantly, where can Jason get a haircut? He is normally so clean.

8:51 the name of song is 追梦人

I was just here to support a Texan, we still claim you 😎

Awesome. Ohhh I had no idea. Thank you both for sharing all of these fun facts (lol) and keeping us informed.

hmmm... interesting. Thanks for posting!

Hey, Denmark is number one on the list. Must be because the Vikings made a good impression when traveling the world.

Texas Taxes 😅

Not anything to do with the Jones act then 🙂

Be care of the currents when sailing Japan. Going to visit islands via ferry I was stunned to see whirlpools often.

Thank you for the info, you guys rock!

How can I confirm who are the reputable insurance companies suggested by your agent? We own a Lagoon 42, are registered in the USVI, sail the US and Caribbean, and over the years, difficult finding a trusted insurance company.

@KumanderDaot This would be an awesome local product feature for your channel, man!

Very interesting to learn about flagging country selection. Thanks.

Outstanding presentation! Superb! Thank you!

This was a great video however as a Realtor, I will say that a condo or house will only go up in value in time, a yacht does the opposite and the price of dockage and gas and maintenance is pretty pricey on a yacht so price wise I would say that a Condo or House is a much smarter option if you are looking at it from a price point of view but outside of that, that is a beautiful yacht and that’s great that they can afford and enjoy living on a yacht. Btw I’m going based off of the yacht they have now, the last yacht they had that was around $200k, that right there sounds much more realistic however, the same concept goes, in time it will go down and you might not be able to find a $200k house but you have more than enough for a down payment on a $500k-$700k house that will only grow equity each month versus a yacht that will lose value every month. Pretty much if you are trying to figure out what is financially smarter, a house is always the way to go but if you can afford to live on a yacht then and not have to worry about it making money for you instead of losing money for you then that’s great.

Hopefully if you ever sail to the Marshal islands you will tell the story of what America has done to it and it's people and fails to do to clean it up.

Living in Mindanao [now] and loving it

Notoriously litigious which makes it difficult and expensive to live their. So [I] don't.

Oh wow I'm excited!! Just looked up your position 2pm may 21st, and you are right off the beach of my wifes home. An hour or 2 ahead of you, Campomanes Bay is a stunning anchorage, hope you are heading there for the night. You will enjoy beautiful sunrise coming up over island there. Guess I'll see in future video.

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Amazing topic. Keep up the good work. Love to see where you sail next. God bless you and love you guys
