21. Alone on An Island With His Three Wives. Sailing Palmerston @The Life Nomadik

[@jr3684]

Great video. You guys are very respectful of the people and their culture. Thank you for sharing.

[@sailingfatamorgana5742]

Thanks for watching!

[@roncooper8666]

What a simply wonderful video! Like another commenter, I thought that I was clicking on some kinky story of a man living on an island with 3 wives. Which, in a way, I guess it was. Only not in the way I thought it would be. Instead, it's the story of a man who recognized Paradise when he found it and went on to make small improvements and raise an amazing family that has raised several generations of peaceful people who have flourished on a very isolated yet beautiful remote island atoll many miles from what we have come to call civilization in the middle of the Pacific ocean. What an amazing video that tells the story of some very unique and wonderful people - the Marsters family! Excellent narration, Maya! What a remarkable adventure you have been living!

[@moonship1946]

Gd bless you for leaving all those books , those will give unmeasurable value to the minds of those people .each book will provide an escape and rad venture they so much deserve .. respect

[@edrosenberger6947]

From what I've seen, you three neat people have left smiling faces behind in every place you have visited....good on you!!!

[@sailingfatamorgana5742]

Yes, we have met some great people along the way and made friends all over the world. Priceless.

[@huertalapaz8359]

Thank you found you by accident , so proud of you all , the best education in the world travel , respect and freedom , blessings to you all safe travels

[@PennPearson]

I found this by accident, but was so intrigued by the narration and by the interesting information about Palmerston that I watched it all the way through. It was very well done and I felt as if I was there. What a nice escape from the suburb of a big, east coast city in the U.S. Thank you! Subscribed.

[@paulwestmaas]

Very, very well done !! Rely enjoyed this Palmerston / Marsters documentary!! Good work by Mom, Dad & Maya. You are a blessed family with very good values. Your community contributions and interactions are much appreciated by your viewers, followers and the lives of the people you interact with. Thank you very much!!!!

[@harrow2355]

I love the Cook Islands,I arrived there in summer,it was so beautifull,I hired a bike and rode around the island,then I went Atutaki wow its beautifull,i went to many pacific islands,Tonga,Fiji,Cook Islands,Tahiti and Hawaii,and every place it was summer and something I will never forget,2 weeks on each island,on my way to the US,then back to Tahiti,Auckand then Cairns back in Queensland Australia,I will go back to Tahiti soon,such a Paradise,such beauty.

[@bahamasking2063]

[@dougefresh133]

Maya does an excellent job narrating the videos. 😊

[@proconsumersafety]

What a beautiful experience for your child. She will learn and grow to learn so much and become independent. Such a great experience and video.

[@Yumikosakuranotmyreallastname]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful adventure. I would like to spend the rest of my life in a place like this.

[@tazmun]

clap clap...well done! well done indeed! I think this may have been one of the most professionally done youtube videos ever. This was like watching a hugely staffed production documentary designed for television. The island and the people were the best topic ever and I felt you captured a true bit of the essence of life there. To the person complaining about the length in comments wanting more and longer videos I remind you this is youtube and even to make such a video of over 20 minutes is quite a task. I can imagine you worked many many hours and even days on this

[@branimirnasri6782]

Yes ,I told these guys the video's they are doing is too good .they didn't beleave me.

[@anon2030]

tazmun@ I was thinking the same thing, it looks like this video was made by a pro. This is the video to watch if u want to make videos, n what kind of equipments did the job.

[@VincenzoFrixa]

the best family i haver seen ... let Maya touch what a real word is .... you just reach the goal of life

[@MilenGerganov]

Well done, guys! If you watch this documentary on a TV, you`d never say it`s not professional! Facinating story, perfect editting, good camera work and last, but not least - heart and soul! Can`t wait for the next episodes! Fair winds!

[@patrickhiggs1215]

Fantastic video, thanks for the great story. I would love to visit such a truly unique island. Happy sailing.

[@TheKirbyduane]

very very nice all in general... maya has excellent job narrating, on donating those books, my bow and salute, stay safe on all of your journey

this is the best cruiser video of Palmerston ! video of daily life and interviews of the Marsters. I really appreciate what you have done. I hope you all continue to do this and stay on the seas...I am departing California in a few years and wpuld love to meet up with y'all. Ivo, you have a good family, my sailing brother. hope to meet you on the seas one day

[@brokenheart-fd9ho]

Bravo!!! a great and excellent job to film the life of the people who are living quite away from all too busy world. They are living a contented life free from political and religious prejudice. They may be simple in their life style yet they have a lot natural beauty to enjoy. Their living on a lonely island is a vital mark of human courage and adjustment for his survival. The best thing is that they have not ignored education and have brought up the young generation with a positive mind-set. Thanks for sharing such a nice experience.

[@cundie1]

I LOVE THESE ISLAND PEOPLE,THEY LOOK SOO HAPPY,,,,,TRUE PARADISE....IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DREAM OF MINE TO MOVE TO AN ISLAND LIKE THIS....

Eternal power. Thank you so much for this window into your lives! So inspiring! Bless you!

[@sailingfatamorgana5742]

Thanks! I am curious about your project! But keep in mind that after 5 years of continuous living aboard and sailing, we are now in the process of selling our boat and moving on land- back in Canada for a few years. Maya will be going to school and we are thinking about new land-based project of off-grid sustainable living.

[@billym8915]

i love all your videos but this one was especially great. So informative and so well edited. I can't understand why you are not the most widely watched sailing channel on you tube. Thanks for what you do. Be safe

[@hanknaclek9747]

Great to see a place we missed. Met a number of Ned Marsters descendants when I was working on Rarotonga during '76-'78, they were good woodworkers and boatbuilders. At that time they estimated there were about 1200 direct descendants of old Ned and the three ladies.

[@Nyctophora]

I'm really happy you gave them the books :) Books are always good to share.

[@sherylmarsters7387]

Thank you for this video. It is wonderful. I am currently researching the Marsters geneology and the pan of the headstones was helpful beyond words! Lovely donation to the school as well. What a wonderful family.

[@msf60khz]

1863 when William Marsters arrived is relatively recent, unlike Fletcher Christian on Pitcairn Island. At that time we had many railways, yachting had started and telegraphs were being laid across the oceans. It is about two of my lifetimes.

[@UtahRiders]

Wow, what an amazing and unique experience! I came across this video when I saw the name of your boat and recognized it as a Romanian name. The Marsters heritage colliding with the most unusual coincidence of two Bulgarian boats meeting up on an atoll in the middle of the Pacific is just incredible. Well done! Cheers to you all from the landlocked state of Utah! Tiberiu Petrescu

[@UtahRiders]

True, Italian name but deeply ingrained in Romanian language. Regardless, it was the name which caught my eye and I am glad it did, great vlog and great narrating job by young Maya! Safe travels.

[@johnkaveski7953]

[@barrywainwright3391]

What am I doing living in New Jersey when there are amazing beautiful tropical islands like that?

[@williamwest5827]

Barry! I guess you like high real estate taxes, congestion, failing infrastructure (got stuck today trying to use the Burlington Bristol bridge) all while the political hacks of the Bridge Commission make hundreds of thousands of dollars. I’d say, start a moving company out of NJ and you could get rich quick.

Aitutaki (another island in the Cook Islands is much closer to Palmerston than the capital island Rarotonga. William Masters was in Mangaia (the most southern island in the Cook Islands) for 3 years, got a Mangaian lady pregnant before continuing on to Palmerston. His daughter that was born in Mangaia was named Elizabeth and has many descendants. Great video.

You are always welcome. You seem to sail with purpose, unlike so many that tour the world as if it is all their big Disney Land.

Maybe someday we will find ourselves in the same anchorage.
