[@jimjam7087]

I've learnt to gauge the size of the doggie from the tone of Jessie's laugh.

[@sailingpopao]

😂😂😂 the cackle right after you miss? Lol

[@jimjam7087]

@@sailingpopao that's a different cackle altogether, one that I am very familiar with 😆

[@sailingpopao]

That mu footages is unreal

[@durwinmccarty9097]

I second this comment!! Yet to spear one and it’s been on my bucket list for years. I once hunted a school for 5 days in Maui, HI, and only was able to get one shot off, and missed🤦‍♂️ I live in Southern California, so only get in waters that have them very infrequent 😢

[@sailingpopao]

Haha cheers legends, we see a lot up here in good sizes. Be sure to go back a couple of episodes if you want your head to pop, the mu schools we found were insane 🤯 it’s the thumbnail with the big blue Maori Wrasse 😍

[@durwinmccarty9097]

@@sailingpopao yes, I have seen all of your videos as they are released. I definitely enjoyed that Mu footage too. I believe I made a comment on the Mu there. Keep up the awesome footage! Cheers ⛵️😎

[@harryadams5651]

[@sailingpopao]

Cheers Harry, thanks for the feedback. Just when I'm about to stop the titles lol.

[@michaelharvey1701]

Awesome. I'll come to Indo with you if you want crew 😁

[@sailingpopao]

We probably will! But we’re keen to explore NT along the way 🙌

[@michaelharvey1701]

@@sailingpopao I grew up in the NT, Gove to be specific.

[@sailingpopao]

Amazing!! That’s top of our list for some land hunting 😂 we will probably end up driving our car over so we can explore the NT for a few months and base ourselves out of Darwin. We will see 😝

[@johnfoley1640]

excellent as always 👍

[@sailingpopao]

Thanks John ☺️

[@Huntersxdrifters]

cracking video guys well done 👌🔥

[@sailingpopao]

Cheers legend!

[@glenicehicks283]

Love your videos, hoping to get out to some of the outer reefs back up from the Whitsundays to Maggie Island . Wondering what satellite imagery you use ? Thanks Glenice & John ⛵️

[@sailingpopao]

Oh you must! There is so much to explore there and some of the most untouched ones due to the location/population on that part of the coast. We use Alpine Quest- it’s amazing but only available on android/samsung. We bought this cheap tablet just to run this program. Would do it again and highly recommend. It’s so much easier than dicking around with open CPN and all that stuff.

[@glenicehicks283]

@@sailingpopao thanks just downloaded it to a Samsung tablet we have on the boat . Will feel more at ease with better images of the reefs . Keep your vids coming ⛵️🪸😘

[@sailingpopao]

Enjoy! Such a great app for scouting out spots. Make sure you turn your tracks on and learn how to flick through the different maps like google, esri, Nokia and bing as you’ll find the imagery varies from reef to reef due to the weather when the satellite pic was taken. Enjoy!

[@glenicehicks283]

@@sailingpopao thanks for the tips 😍⛵️

[@Captainbazz2]

Love the vids guys 🤘🤘what was the name of the app you were looking at the anchorage with ??

[@sailingpopao]

Alpine Quest , it’s only on android or Samsung but totally worth it.

[@sailorruss5279]

Crazy prices for insurance, my company starts with a P and had similar issues

[@sailingpopao]

Yes spontaneous with a P 😂 sounds familiar 😵‍💫

[@martinbowskill5511]

6000 bucks insurance she must be a supayacht bloody ridiculous ah well as Ned said such is life cheers n beers Marty Qld

[@sailingpopao]

Haha yeah crazy for a boat worth 160-180k… for twelve months 🤯

[@crowiesnest]

Time to get a new insuranse company ! Thats blatant theft !

[@sailingpopao]

Not many options when you want to cruise up north during cyclone season.

[@colinboniface194]

Insurance is a bloody rip off... 6K is unbelievable...

[@sailingpopao]

Yeah mate, for a year of insurance for a 160k boat… an absolutely joke!

[@JamalJohnson-se4mz]

If you could make your sea home bigger would you? And what would you add?

[@sailingpopao]

Haha of course! We’d love something a bit bigger for more toys and waterline length for a smoother ride but with a bigger boats comes more cost. Bigger ropes, winches, haul out & marina fees. She’ll do for now 🤭
