BACK TO BOAT LIFE! What happened to our BOAT? Ep 344

BACK TO BOAT LIFE!! www.sailingnan...
Before Christmas last year, we packed up Nandji 2 and travelled back to our home country of Australia for some much needed family and friend time. We had been away for over 2 years and honestly, we felt we needed a break from the boat for a bit, plus Tallula had lots of cousins to meet!
We kept ourselves busy in Oz enjoying what the country side of Australia had to offer. After years of green grass and palm trees, it is always a pleasant contrast to return to the harsh Australian bush and wildlife.
We had a few adventures along the way as we took a luxury house on wheels on to the Sealink ferry and across to Kangaroo island. We spent 2 weeks freezing cold and exploring the island with family.
Then packed up Nannas car and drove 700km back to the coast where I grew up, opened up our shipping container of belongings from ten years ago and subsequently went camping in a tent… It is good to remember where we started.
Our time in Australia gave us everything that we were looking for… We filled up our cup with love and memories and were given the reminder of how good boat life really is. With a fresh new outlook and now full of determination once more to get Nandji 2 ready for the big year of sailing ahead, it is back on the plane to Thailand to get back to our floating home and the Marley man.

• BACK TO BOAT LIFE! Wha...

[@hipguide1]

Marley is looking fit and ready to run...Tallula is the best friend of Marley. Glad you're on the boat with amazing ventures ahead!

[@reb4898]

Welcome home…

[@darrenykema979]

Boat jobs never seem to stop And that can be good because it's home and maintaining your home gives a sense of pleasure

[@onlytwothings]

Hi Yoshi, it was nice to meet you and your mate at Somerton Beach in early January when our kids played together. All the best for your 2024 adventures. I'll be watching on! Cheers, Scott 👊

[@FrothLyfeSailingNandji]

Awesome!! I remember!! Great to hear you are watching on! Cheers 🤘

[@mullholand]

Love that you two are just crushing it still - life is life - on the boat or anywhere else.

[@GM-cq6ez]

Good to see Marley again. Talula is the product of great parenting: Sweet and independent. See you back on the boat.

[@jamarie1972]

Lovely to see you back on the Boat, but really pleased you’ve had time back in Australia 🇦🇺 All the very best to you all from us in England 🇬🇧

[@greenbimoon]

I hang my clothes out in the sun and wind for a few days and that fixes the smell Make sure to have a decent filter on your shower drain to catch hair, or you'll be pulling that pump out to fix a jammed impeller.

[@daled8221]

Glad to see you back on the boat! Remember, a clean orifice, is a happy orifice!

[@cutaway7405]

Good for you nailing another excellent extended family viz! Barnacle buster was interesting....We Loved seeing Marley running flat out on the beach and Always love the joyful voice and antics of Lula the entertainer!❤ ❤❤❤

[@michelebushnik2874]

Lots of hard work on clean up, and boat prep! You two teach us so much about boat life, it's priceless! You need more newby and oldie sailors learning from you here! Ypur knowledge is epic!! Welcome back home! Marley we missed you too! Tallulah has grown so much, what a smart darling one! Happy Valentine's love birds!❤❤ ❤❤

[@davidc6510]

Hello Legends!!! I always love seeing the family and hound reunion video. Another great video showing how to pay the clean up bill for leaving the boat for an extend time. I always enjoy seeing the reunion video between a pet and their family. Thanks for sharing, Yew!

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

I'm so thankful for your family that Bonita is well again! 'Lula is a joy to watch. Safe travels ❤

[@zzlee14]

Look up vacuum plastic bags used fore packing. you put your clothes in and suck them down. your clothes will smell the same as wen you put them in. Love the vids. :)

[@zzlee14]

A vacuum kitchen sealer will stop insects hatching no air. They also make them waterproof. :)

[@AJHcampozioutdoors]

Nice to see you have the original "Lea and perrins" Worcestershire sauce on board 😀😀

[@jesswilson366]

Loved you included the “malls balls”! Happy sailing.

[@FrothLyfeSailingNandji]

Iconic!

[@colleenmcdougall293]

Welcome back to your boat. We missed you.

[@paulhanse1651]

Good job with the barnacle buster, circulate it through your Aircon too, the colour the water turns too will scare you!

[@joninewton4574]

That cover for your boat is amazing!!

[@mattschaal5578]

The bag worked well.

[@kristaready8812]

Good to have you back all recharged and ready to go 🤗💞

[@cheryllgoodluck3561]

Marley what a dog many hugs

[@3865ron]

How about putting everything you can into some large vacuum bags when you leave for extended period of time?

[@davidcmatt]

MARLEY!!!!

[@rbc5878]

Good job on the boat systems Yosh!

[@leeoldershaw956]

It is not really necessary to replace rigging after 11 years. If there is no corrosion or broken strands and the chain plates are good it should be OK for family cruising. If it has swaged fittings those should be replaced with Stayloks or Norseman type fittings which are lifetime fittings. You can cut swagings off and replace with extended length fittings. You can do them yourself one at a time and save thousands.

[@DVolvoguy777-x7o]

Marley’s theme song. Whippet good….. Devo. Great vid Yosh and Benita.

[@jimellis594]

Diaphragm pump they are commercial used in factories they're the best.

[@barcrusher]

Lookin forward to you guys setting sail again hewww

[@adamdiakowsky4026]

I'd like to scrub your barnacles of you haul Joshua. Eps so interesting. Who would of thought you could by a solution strictly for barnacle removal and : you have a bath tub, in your home! So cool. 😊

[@mickeyh53]

The gangs back together again!!..not the same without Marli..looking forward to your many journeys this year..HNY.

[@adamcollegeman2]

love love love

[@shazkapaz]

Please wash white mold at the engine . White mold is like cotton wool it took me 8 years to get it out of my lungs. It is a silent killer. It is airborne that why u don’t see it but u have growth on the wall down at engine. The more u clean it with bleach solution it doubles in the air it is really a bad one. Out of all the molds I am totally allergic to white mold nearly killed me because it was on white walls! Glad you back missed your videos x

[@lynnsmith5164]

🎉good to see all went well.maybe crazy but has anyone ever mixed fine ground red pepper in the hull paint?would think that nothing would wanna stay attached after it got into that

[@diannetroeth-telfer1148]

Glad you came home to see family for Christmas. Australia best country in the world

[@andrewdavies4604]

Vacuum bags work wonders to keep clothes fresh, I use them myself. I live in a mobile home, and get similar problems I buy them, and suck them flat with a vacuum cleaner, but I hear some folks just use strong black plastic bins bags, and suck them flat, then tie the top It would probably work.

[@victorbitter583]

It must feel good to be back. It's great to see Marley fit enough to do beach sprints again. Don't forget to get me some Larb Moo. cheers.

[@patraic5241]

There has got to be an energy friendly dehumidifier that will work for cruisers. Low humidity would help so much in situations where a boat has to be left for a few weeks.

[@robertnixon3816]

Life is good! Just getting started at the boat work. Tallula has a obvious joy for life! Almost everything is fun in some way to her. Thats going to be some gnarly bottom work to get to a smooth newly painted surface. Lots of marine growth! Life is good! Enjoy!

[@williammacpherson2906]

Much love you guys

[@ianprice2298]

Like any long vacation, there is always a lot of work to catch up on when you get back.

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi guys, wow it’s wonderful to see you back on the ocean again I know it’s great to go home to Australia and to travel around but I really love seeing you all back on Nandji , this is where you’re supposed to be. I can see it you just love it. Keep up the good work. Love your Videos really love and appreciate you all Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺

[@FTATF]

Couldn't help but chuckle at the giant clock in your storage container. Im guessing there is a story.

[@Sommers234]

Even yachts need love. Great to see you back in action!

[@jackrolfson312]

Glad to see you back on the boat again. It's always nice to see family. And get acquainted again, But there's no place like home back on your boat! Can't wait for your next adventures.

[@curtishyde1842]

Okay that ( prop cover up ) that is ( bad to the bone! )

[@jj56x7.5mm]

Love from sa keep strong

[@TriciaTynan]

Radelaide 🦘

[@stephanswart3981]

Glad to see you all safely back on the boat. Goodluck.

[@TheJeffrey575]

Amazing…is there a copper based coating for the bottom of the boat? I would think barnacles, bugs and vegetation would hate it making life a bit easier for the captain and first mate.

[@dannyfisher9223]

Thanks for another great episode guy's 👍 am frothing on what this year brings! Stay safe out there and enjoy guy's

[@Marka1230]

I'm so glad Marley is OK

[@acptelford1307]

More than okay. He could run around whenever he wanted.

[@skiyalater626]

Multiple solar powered fans on low aling with operational bildge pumps keep things more in order. A portal or 2 craked helps. not 100% but better.

[@matthewmccarthy7809]

I am sure your family was sad to see you go, especially missing Lula.

[@robertbailey2342]

yaaaayyyy you guys are back!!! Much love from the coast of Maine🤙🤙❤

[@ralfretter5674]

Lovely teamwork.... lovely video ❤

[@cindycornog8006]

❤❤❤

[@bmarshy2307]

Hey Yoshi, if you're going to replace your rigging, what direction are you going? Going to DIY it?

[@HazelHammond1505]

there's definitely good and bad about leaving your boat.

[@joannabrown2995]

👍🙌🌟👍🙌🌟

[@tnllifeunedited9165]

🤠👍

[@bruceday450]

You have a gorgeous figure babe! no disrespect to any family member on board I hope. Continue with your journey, confidence is the stunning beauty. X to all

[@thomasthornton5737]

😀👍👍👍❤

[@danielmclellan7762]

I'm ruined, I'm just here to hear Benita sing😢

[@ERNIE555]

Still think a dog , especially this breed, doesn’t belong on a boat

[@FrothLyfeSailingNandji]

What do you know about this breed???? Is it they like to sleep for 20+ hours a day, have only short bursts of energy and prefer to be with their owners rather then alone??
