That's so cool (emu on beach) and all those dolphins captured from the drone!!! What a beautiful place.

[@lilandjake]

Good morning everyone, happy first Sunday of Summer! We hope you enjoy as we explore the Coffin Bay National Park! 🌞

[@robyndehavilland1609]

Wow the wildlife on this episode was amazing. I love the Coffin Bay Emus, and that little wallaby was so cute. So many dolphins ❤

[@lilandjake]

It is amazing how much we have seen! The emus are our absolute favourite. We don’t really have them in Tassie and they’re just hilarious! Thank you so much for watching Robyn! 🤩

[@aaronwojtowicz7576]

you mob get more bogged than anyone I have seen! In most vids I have watched, you haven't held anywhere the right momentum/right gear in the sand. With your rig (I have a similar weight camper) you'd be best served with 18psi on the rear of car, and 16 on front of car and camper. (or even lower on softer stuff- even down to 10/12 psi) hold 4x4 in third gear manually, which will help a lot. It's all a learning. Nice to see you getting out there and trying it all out. Safe travels.

[@lilandjake]

Thanks for the tips Aaron, you’re right we still have a lot to learn but I also think we get bogged so often because we go where others chose not to! 🤔 glad you’re enjoying following along with the antics. You’ll be excited (or maybe not?) to know that we have a big bogging coming up in a few weeks. Not ideal! 😂

[@roamingtheblue]

Awesome video guys! The landscape in South Aus is something else hey. So sandy and remote. And so much wildlife!

[@lilandjake]

You guys! 💕 it looks like you’re having such an epic time on your travels! Your editing is SPOT ON! 🙌🏼

[@roamingtheblue]

@@lilandjake oh thanks heaps legends! We have been loving it!

[@firemanfireman7228]

You finally got to surf The beach was beautiful and the water was nice and clear I see it's not all fun out there when you got stuck Glad you had some one to rescue you It mad my day watching you guys have a lot of fun And as the crab 🦀 i kinda thought it would try to attack Really cool guys Fireman 🔥🔥🔥

[@lilandjake]

So stoked about the surf, it was great to get in. You’re absolutely right though, it’s always a bit stressful when we get bogged! Yes, the crab was so cool, lucky it didn’t nip us! Thanks for watching Fireman! 🔥

[@MrWillmay]

That point where u had the blue and black shackle for the tow/ snatch is not rated. It’s a light duty tie down point for when the cars are shipped over on a boat. Be careful doing any serious snatches off that you can wreck a chassis or it can fly loose and hurt someone… Keep up the great vids, love your work. Stay safe

[@lilandjake]

Great spot! Yes its just a tie down point hey, I've been meaning to get a soft shackles so I can go around the a arm or something but just haven't got around to it! Thankyou so much for watching our video! See you next time!

[@ExploringAustralia787]

Heyo! Beaches are just gorgeous down that way! SA is one of the spots we definitely can't wait to explore 😁 Tip for the traction control. Press and hold the button for roughly 15 seconds to shut it off completely. Once pressed the light will come on after 2 or 3 seconds, keep holding and it'll start flashing and you're good to go 👌

[@lilandjake]

It’s amazing down there! Question is your car a manual or auto? I have tried this but found the only way to truly turn it off is if we are in sport mode with a gear selected, Or maybe I’m not doing it right! Fingers crossed I’m doing it wrong!

[@NatesToolbox]

Brilliant videos guys we are headed this way very soon can’t wait !!

[@lilandjake]

Oh epic!! You’re going to have the absolute BEST time!! 🙌🏼

[@ronvandam1712]

Simple fix on finding max trax, tie on a coloured ribbon or string

[@lilandjake]

Absolutely!!! We need to do this!! Thank you so much for the hot tip! 🔥

[@gregm9569]

Coffin Bay a defo on the trip list...what's been your top 5 places so far?

[@lilandjake]

Ohhh, sooo tough! - Absolutely loved Point Turton in SA, so many stingrays at the jetty. - Anywhere in Esperance, so blue!! - yallingup - so many cool swimming spots. - Bunbury and the amazing dolphins!! - Karijini NP (that’s coming in a couple of weeks)! - Pemberton and Denmark also!! Absolutely loved the south of WA!

[@qksmith]

so funny watching you guys, you make the worst decisions, its cracks me up. but good on you!

[@blokefromthebush]

Tyre pressure at 18psi, low range third gear and plenty of right foot. If you want a hard sand track to try out try the curta rocks track in the port Lincoln national park.

[@lilandjake]

Surprisingly we were at 14psi here! 😂 The caravan was just stuck a bit too far outside of the cars tracks and we had no hope with traction control kicking in!! We will definitely put that track on our list, we love a good 4wd track. Thanks for watching!👌🏽

[@blokefromthebush]

@@lilandjake I lived in port Lincoln for 15 odd years. Some really good fishing to be had in coffin bay national park. Have you been into memory cove in the port Lincoln national park really pretty place.

[@lilandjake]

How incredible, such a nice spot, somewhere we could see ourselves visiting again soon! But we didn’t have great weather when we were in Lincoln NP so we spend a few days in the Spalding Cove Bush Camp which was super sheltered!

[@troyhuckle8138]

You need to let more air out of your tyres on SA beaches good starting point is half your normal psi, and drive at the top when the beach is steep, when you go to limestone coast the sand is soft at the water edge and avoid driving on sea weed patches, great vid

[@lilandjake]

Thanks so much for the tips, South Australia’s beaches are so much different to Tasmanian beaches! Glad you liked the video!! 🤙🏽

[@brentmcd12]

wicked ! what a bogging ! and a recovery process! 🌅🌊🏞️🛻📹🤙😎

[@lilandjake]

Thank you so much, it comes like second nature now we get bogged so much!! 😂 Glad you liked the video!! 👌🏽

[@melbassham3490]

Will you guys do a van tour vid??? Keen to see your set up 😁

[@lilandjake]

Hey Mel! Thank you so much for watching our videos! We absolutely will in the near future, we promise! 🤩

[@anthonyhunter3411]

Yew good times! Go onto Koan gear guys they sell replacement metal lugs for your standard maxtrax boards if you need them 🤙

[@lilandjake]

That’s so helpful, will do! Cheers Anthony, thank you so much for watching! 👌🏽

[@karengayehammat4199]

Big dunes does that mean the area gets the results of coastal erosion happening elsewhere

[@s4060]

Why is it ‘embarrassing’? You got bogged, great Aussie attitude of ‘help a mate in need’ got you out. Normal stuff.

[@HeathCooney]

Which beach at the end were those sand flats on?

[@fluffycat6489]

Good on ya i love coffins bay. What campground is that?

[@lilandjake]

Isn’t it sooo stunning!! Gosh, it was so long ago. I can’t remember where we stayed!! 😅😅😅 sorry! 🫶🏼

[@fluffycat6489]

@@lilandjake All good I haven't been there in years either I'm living in WA but from south Australia will be planning a trip there and to port Lincoln, Whyalla etc to do some fishing the only thing I'm unsure of is if I'll try this sand in my AWD crv... It's lifted etc and done as much as I can without buying a 4*4.. too expensive for me at the moment I did email the national parks at coffins bay and they won't help if you get stuck so I'll think 🤔 but thank you for the response.

[@karengayehammat4199]

This cool weather is not the norm we usually have scorching temps Nov Dec

[@lilandjake]

We’ve heard this so much!! Hopefully the summer will continue a bit longer on the other end of the season! 🤞🏼

[@MJimmy3]

Are you holding down the traction control button for 10sec till it flashes?

[@lilandjake]

Yeah, we’ve given this a try but I think only works with manuals? Maybe not with newer auto models. I’ll show you what I’m talking about next time we get bogged! Cheers for the tip though, really appreciate your help! 👌🏽

[@petermills1402]

Press Traction button for a full five seconds and then it is REALLY OFF

[@lilandjake]

Cheers for that, I know that works in a manual but have tried it but still doesn’t work in our auto. Only way I can find to truly turn it off is in sport mode with a gear selected! 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’ll show you next time we get bogged. Thanks so much for watching! 🤙🏽

[@brettleonard8602]

I'd get rid of those occy straps on the roof guys. I know a girl who lost an eye when one failed and they are in a dangerous spot.

[@lilandjake]

Gosh! How unlucky is that! Thanks for letting us know and thank you for watching! Cheers 🤙🏼
