BRAND NEW SAILBOAT WRECKS IN PARADISE! DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU! (Ep 85)

[@philbox4566]

That was awesome. We've been saying for ages now, No Limits. Love that quadraplegic young lady, her attitude towards what happened to her is awesome. She made the choice to not let her accident get the better of her. She and everyone around her are the better for it. How good was that family you interviewed.

[@richardlegault8908]

what a great episode with the lady from france, i had back surgery 9 yrs ago and waiting for another one , been in lots pain for 1 yr and have a hard getting around , love to travel and been retired for 2 yr and hope to do more in the future , your episode showed me not to give up and keep at it no matter what ,thanks again keep them coming love your channel ,

[@dianeswift]

Love your episodes on kids. If I had children, I couldn't think of a better environment than a loving family and a boat!

[@TheQuadruped]

Stunning work Renee. The filming, editing, music, and narration. Nobody else in the cruising world is doing any better than what you are delivering.

[@invictusgg7961]

Thanks for sharing doods! So sick to see multiple people out there proving people wrong and beating disabilities. Thumbs up from dallas!

[@cliffstarks9579]

Growing up, I never imagined that Thursday’s would become the day of the week that I looked forward too. And we all know why! It’s Zatara day! This weeks entry had so many interesting themes, it would be hard to single one out as my favorite. So, I will just say “Thanks” for another entry into your very interesting world. We all appreciate you inviting us into your lives and giving us the opportunity to experience places we only dream about. Be safe my Texas friends. ❤️🇺🇸

[@grantmyers7593]

I like your interviews with other sailing families. it gives a perspective we don't typically see.

[@Acheron2010]

Gosh, your intro with Lea made me tear up. Heartwarming to see her overcoming her tragedy. So glad you are all well and continuing to enjoy life.

[@frankk.1071]

Keith, Renee and family, I ran across your channel this past week and have been binge watching them as I get a chance.. I am undergoing medical treatment and it wipes me out, so the time spend watching your sailing videos as I recover from each treatment really is a bright spot.. Plans are underway to sell everything a buy a 40+ foot mono-hull and go cruising once I retire in little over 3 years.. Like y'all, I want to get my sea legs in the Caribbean before taking off the the Pacific.. I had a little Hunter when I lived on Padre Island, but had to sell it when the company for whom I work moved me to Dallas 2 years ago.. I recently bought a little Catalina 22 to play on Lake Lewisville to gain sailing skills until the time I can move back to the ocean.. Still have a bit more refitting before we can splash it.. Hard to do when medical treatments sap all of your energy.. I just take it slowly, because after all, even a turtle gets where it is going.. Hope to meet up with someday.. Until then, may you have fair winds and following seas.. flk k

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.... y’all are my kind of people!! Love your family and all the “Zventure” videos! Renee you’re doing an outstanding job as director and editor! You guys should be applauded for all the hard work that goes into producing quality, family-friendly entertainment week after week! 👏👏 Well done Z crew!! PS: A Texas- sized THANK YOU for having a date stamp at the beginning of your videos!!! I wish every sailing channel on KZbin would give their viewers that same curtesy. 👍

[@RideLikeTheWind_]

LOVE ZATARA! Please do an episode or Q&A with all or most of your family members explaining how your social media fame has changed your views on sailing and living aboard, etc. And how has it changed each of you as people. I think all of us fans would love to hear each of your thoughts on this.

[@ptwhd]

You guys make the world a better place. Thanks!!!

[@thewedword]

Keith and Renee, just found your channel and all I can say is you must be the happiest parents on earth! Certainly have my vote for parents of the year. Keith from one dad to another...you ARE the man! The love, togetherness and freedom that you enjoy and share is priceless, thank you all for sharing! Continue to bless the world with your positive images, love for all and real family values. Gotta go now...I've gotta lot of catching up to do, let's see binge watch how many episodes???? Blessings to you all, keep up the great work. I currently sail a Beneteau 35.1 working my way up to a Cat....✌❤❤

Love the small interviews. Adds a unique flair to your production. I like hearing the perspective of others around the world

[@winetrippin425]

Renee... Kudos on those great interviews with the sailing families. It's so nice that you wanted to include such a valuable look into "The Why" of people becoming cruisers, and parents raising their families at sea, and then devoted the time for in-depth, very heartfelt interviews, that went much deeper than any other sailing channels' videos I've seen... and I've been watching a lot lately! Hooked and Binging... Safe Passage Zatara! Michael in Sacramento.

[@muskietime]

Great to see the clips on handicap windsurfing, shipwreck and the lessons that can be learned. Special appreciation for the interview with the sailing family. There are so many definitions of bravery...what you and that Family have chosen is Brave. Was riding my motorcycle on country roads yesterday and met some folks that sold everything and are traveling in a converted school bus. Kinda find that Brave too. Always brings joy to my heart to see folks on Adventures. Thank you for sharing your Experiences and Adventures.

[@SailingZatara]

Awesome! 🤙🏼

[@willyum1208]

@@SailingZatara what a hollow, condescending reaction to somebody else's misfortune. 11:29 'Somebodies dreams just went to crap' add to that, that cocky, puffed out strut and smile you make after 'what bad decisions got them there', with your entire family laughing in background. This truly makes my blood boil. This is not the spirit of sailing. This will be you one day mate, or close friends of yours, learn some humility. S/V Shadenfreude

[@rjdalchow]

Kite surfers are a rare breed. On the lake I used to live on (sadly, we had to sell the property), kite surfers were the first ones out after the ice cleared in the spring (I live in Michigan), and were out into the fall as long as they could. It wasn't unusual to see them out there over Thanksgiving weekend. Huge props to the Kite Surfing school for the work they are doing, and to the family of the Elysian for giving their Down's child an awesome way of life.

[@Chipiricuiki0083]

Renee! not only is the editing getting world glass but the storytelling is above and beyond the average slow-mo filled sailing vid! between the family interviews, the cruising lifestyle, the gear reviews, the interesting other people, y'all are not only the best youtube sailing channel (an honor you snagged from LaVaga [don't worry I still love the aussies]) you're the best KZbin channel period! keep it up and sending prayers, positive vibes, and fair weather and following seas all the way from Fort Worth!

[@smartthevote]

such great stories of family experience and learning about the world beyond city life. Sad thing is why anyone would give such videos a thumbs down; I suppose...people who don't have a relevant life.

I know I will continue to watch it in the future. Thank you for the entertainment Zatara family.

An anchor is your best friend! My prop tangled in a crab trap line, stopped my motor in a deep channel with a swift current, and down went that anchor! 100 feet of water, and it held me secure until a towboat arrived. Know where you are, and always have an anchoring plan at every point in shore.

[@SabbaticusRex]

These cruising families (including your own, obviously) are so down to earth - aware of their children's likely futures on land , and proactive in actually doing something about it.. I realize this isn't the place for politics; but briefly I just wanted to touch on the fact that there seems to be very dark and sinister agendas targeted towards our kids, especially in western countries. Honestly you people are incredible and have benefitted your families in so many ways; getting them out of the traps found in our societies on land and inspiring others to do the same.. You are also do it with grace, humility and it is beautiful to watch. You have faith in each other, and we have faith in you. Keep up the fantastic work ! Thanks.

[@andreahjalmarsson1092]

[@MaloRichard]

Hey I just discovered your channel and all your videos, great content keep going. My mum has circumnavigate the globe for 7 years around and we were, with my brother, sailing kids at the time. I like that you are interviewing famillies, but i think you should give more the microphone to the kids/teens as i don't feel we have their perspective and maybe without their parents nearby. I have amazing souvenirs from those years on our boat and looking back that was probably the best experience of my life but it wasn't has shinny and beautiful as the parents says. For exemple missing the rest of the familly, loneliness, lack of having external persons to talk to when tension are on the boat and many other stuff (boat life hahah) (yeah maybe i was a sensitive child but i remember crying many times alone in my cabin thinking/missing of my grand parents and life time friends etc). Also the come back to real life is difficult, coming back into the society as a social Missfit is a hard part but this is to soon for you to experience it (cause really when you come back nobody understand you and you don't understand anybody haha). I'm 30 years old now and probably had a lot of time to think about all that overall it was a positive experience but to be fair it's not always easy as a kid, take good care of them. Anyway no worries you kids be fine and will face all of this and become grown ups with sailing dreams (yeah I'm planning to start my own circumnavigation next year) Fair winds Malo
