I gotta say, as much as I enjoyed your AWOL content, I've been enjoying this content even more. It is good to see you back at the helm.

[@malin01s47]

I think the same. Now he is captain of a real ship not a boat anymore. Nice!

[@auswidemarine8980]

I agree, this is better, feels more down to earth or should I say Sea. Enjoying watching.

[@Palmiped09]

You come across as more relaxed on this boat than the previous one, great video also.

[@lmcmaster66]

Well I would imagine it’s a lot more chill when you are not doing back to back charters like constantly changing guests dojng tight fast schedules this will be a much more relaxed paced as it’s an owner only vessel

[@johnargus9081]

It's a lot smaller with less crew to supervise. Technically, at only 31.7 meters it's not a superyacht.

[@mattWallJsy]

Having followed you for years, this is some of the best content you’ve made! Proper boat, beautiful locations and chilled but professional vibe. Keep up the great work Sir. 👍🏽

[@box7101]

Content on AWOL and on this new Ship is way more pleasing than the other stuff. You seem way more satisfied working as captain.

[@ioc1973]

I think it's very nice of you, Tristan, to clearly show here that you miss your family. Respect for that... Otherwise, of course, another very cool video.

[@PaulCashman]

Whew, they picked a bad day to sleep in. That looked like a gorgeous place to swim. Really loving this content and the new boat.

[@paulkersey2179]

SYC, thanks for taking us along.

[@miceinoz1181]

Yes, I think a private yacht suits you better than a charter boat. You come across as less stressed. Good stuff.

[@captainsojourn]

These are amazing. Love the format. Love the love to the family. Love that you are able to experience a bit of the destinations.

[@robertfrost1683]

Very enjoyable - this is such a very beautiful yacht. Traditional and sturdy.

[@mikeheard4859]

I echo the thoughts of others Tristan, it’s great to have you back at the helm and as always you make your videos so enjoyable, AWOL was a beautiful boat but E S is stunning, a truly well built vessel no expenses to much to create a boat to a very high standard, she oooozes quality and l am in no doubt is the reason you decide to become master again

[@godlyobject6509]

Loving these! That bridge is fantastic.

[@tomas5255]

Beautiful compassess along with pens in stand ready for manual chart work. Nice.

[@KO-pk7df]

Ahhh.. So magical with everything humming along as it should, perfect seas and weather before the Midwatch! Something so satisfying about that setting all is right with the world heading off toward sunrise.

[@Speedmaster1200]

Thanks Captain

[@jaysmith8199]

The locations are stunning, lucky you! How civilised are the guests, siestas just make you feel better 😊 My ❤ is with sailing ships, but I like your boat as she's an Explorer, not a gin palace. I used to live where Princess Yachts are built so used to seeing those. Also used to have to check Richard Bransons transatlantic record breaker yacht. Saw the last Brittania Yacht refit before HM Queen had to let it go. Had a tour, amazing! Once had a super yacht rotting in a basin as the engines blew up (owner insisted on wrong engines). Sat for nearly 10 yrs before eventually sold.😂 Saw quite a few superyachts being built where once upon a time there were warships.

[@Buddy869-z9x]

Wow! An absolutely classic Med yachting itinerary on a classic yacht. Breathtaking views, and it looks like you’ve got the weather, too. Thank you!

[@TimFenton-dx4xe]

You look like you're enjoying yourself alot more, thanks 🎉🎉🎉

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Safe passage to all! Great episode! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍

[@JCinMA257]

Love having this content back! You're uploading a lot. Don't get burned out! PS - that B-Roll @4:18 was great!

[@markshutt1476]

First night underway on the new boat and it's picture perfect. I miss sunsets and sunrises at sea. Perfect with the islands around. Thanks for sharing.

[@frank1672]

Cruising on MV Oceana P&0 a few years back passing Stromboli like you as the Sun was rising. A few shipmates came on deck for a view saw a bright red and yellow flash followed by an almighty bang as it erupted, we all legged it. Glad your back in the saddle be safe.

[@john9508]

Great video, thanks for showing us around the island and trip

[@fisherh9111]

Love the new yacht! She suits you well.

[@obelisktoucher4562]

That "supervised" exclusion zone is unsurprising, since Stromboli's July '24 eruptions have resulted in at least one pyroclastic flow that reached the sea.

[@catherinesarah5831]

🦘🇦🇺 Thank you so much Tristan for taking us on board for an amazing day of discovery. Paint me green with envy; you get the most beautiful scenery, sunrises & sunsets. Looking east from where I live on the coast, across the Tasman sea I get it. 🛟🙏

[@colbystensland2508]

Thank you very much for sharing all that you share

[@robertsmith-fj2rx]

Absolutely love these videos. As someone who has been on the water all his life and started as a cadet in the merchant navy all the bridge navigation and voyage info really makes it perfect. The boat herself is beautiful to. You have made a great decision to leave the constant charter in the Med and branch out to a true expedition yacht.

[@energitrimmeren]

It’s so nice to have you back and controlling a yacht again. I love your editing making it into a calm and interesting “slow TV”. I kinda missing “the crew” interactions we saw at AWOL, but I guess that we saw a hint of a beginning today.

[@neilgibbs3880]

Thanks for all your efforts, love these cruising videos. Very jealous 😂

[@michaeldean4394]

I gotta say that as much as I've enjoyed past videos, this one was the best. I fantasize about being an owner-operator, but this episode made me aware of things I wouldn't have considered. So a modestly crewed yacht will be my fantasy. 😂 Great to have you back at the helm. Gold standard!!

[@JuroLenghart]

Love this type of content. Really enjoy it

[@anthoneyking6572]

The More I take in your New Ship the More I appreciate how Nice she is a lovely Ship I Understand Why you took the Job on Her Great Vlog Captain thanks

[@federicogaraventa2004]

Mid-eighties we were cruising from our home Genova to Eolie and Sicily, on our family Hatteras, stopping (too) near Stromboli shore to take a swim. A small eruption actually threw rocks at us, too close for comfort! We hauled up our anchor and left quickly the area. It was 40 years ago and Coast Guard wasnt as proactive as they are now. A nice little adventure and some big laughing after a small scare. Sweet memories. Keep up e vento in poppa, Captain!

[@carbybirett]

That was sooo nice to watch. I really like this vessel, it oozes a type of comfort and unhurried style. Looking forward to you next episode. Carl 🇦🇺

[@dwainday7460]

Good to c u back great videos keep them coming

[@wildqtip6482]

That water is absolutely amazing 🤩

[@thechaplain9906]

I really enjoyed watching Yours & Gems exchange with you as a potential cruise client. We’re definitely considering using y’all to book our next cruise after we complete the ones we already booked. Glad you’re back Captain Tristen, you’ve been sorely missed!!! In the spirit of your Ship’s name, En Nomine Patris, Et Filli, Et Spiritus Sancti, Amen 🙏 #godblessu #godblessus #godblessusa

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Thank you sir. We look forward to hearing from you. Wishing you an amazing cruise. 🙏

[@thechaplain9906]

By the way, will we get the pleasure of seeing the interior sometime? Really enjoyed seeing the videos you’ve provided so far, thank you 🙏

[@jerplane400]

Great video Sir! Keep them coming. We love following along with you!

[@stevenplancich6449]

Hmm…You wanna take us closer to the Volcano, but the Coast Guard sez no…Get Away😜…Get Away 😎

[@georgeburns7251]

Neat name for an Australian yacht. So much history from WW2. Glad to see you again.

[@fisherh9111]

those engines are smoooooth - sound great!

[@davidcollins2092]

Absolutely loved this, fantastic content!

[@wernerdanler2742]

I love Italy and watch a lot of videos from Italy. Mostly properties for sale. I'm getting the lay of the land, but I had no idea there was another volcano off the coast of Calabria, which is the province covering the instep and toe of the boot of Italy. I remember sailing to Japan in the spring of 70, and we could see Mt. Fujiama from at least 50 miles out, and it grew slowly as we steamed in at a slow 6 knots. What a sight! Ciao! 😊

[@amandabortello505]

Another great episode, thanks Tristan.😊

[@AS-mw8po]

Welcome in Italy Captain...

[@fs819p60]

SALUTE⚜️I’m glad I kept you on my radar⚜️loving the adventure!

[@G.J..Journeys]

Great footage as always 👍

[@BRADLEY856]

Really enjoy this older version of you mate. Keep up your excellent sharing (build up enough of us wishing to put in dollars for a charter maybe )

[@raa729]

We have seen Stromboli erupting big in March 2021 after passing Messina going Napoli. Brilliant

[@colinboniface194]

Bengy is either the cat, or baby's teddy bear... LOL... Great video...

[@robmccall5017]

Super nice Video Captain ! Keep em coming!

[@floodo1]

that water looked so nice on ur recon mission!

[@shanedavis9166]

I know the sea state was I suppose calm, but the boat looked rock steady on camera.

[@TradeWindgng]

Great video Love it love most the Passage planning part and watch keeping & instrumentation monitoring. Keep them coming please

[@fishtigua]

When we got back from our cruise of the Pacific and Indian Ocean, we had bodyarmour and night-vision glasses left over after dumping the arms. Sailing past Stromboli while she was active at night was amazing with the glasses on. May be worth buying some old NATO ones for guests.

[@vince2837]

Love your channel so great to see you back on KZbin Captaining if that's a word 😂, I wish you well and fair winds, I'm a regular viewer, keep it,coming. Beautifully done

[@gregsullivan8956]

Thanks for an interesting video.

[@philc2457]

That tender looked close to the ground!

[@GroinsNZ]

I'm always intrigued how these boats are kept in such good order, clean and free of salt water damage. They look spotless for the most part. Must take a lot of constant effort.

[@woody1851]

Hi Tristan, nice new boat. Not8hing is better than a long range (trawler) yacht 🙂; Cut8tenrly we ar at the Amalfi coast . last month I was at the Stromboli at the day when the last big mountain slide happened. Good travel and have fun with your new vessel..... Greetings MY SISU

[@robertjordan4880]

Enjoy each video.

Hello Tristan! Thank you for your great videos!! I hope there are many more to come. Kind regards from Austria

You are on the money with this content. Keep t up :)

[@vilijanac]

Very cool, have rader and all gear. Would use radio all time if was rockie.

[@cilldublin07]

Pretty cool going by a volcano even if your outside an exclusion zone and the thing is pumping out an ash cloud

Well done and totally enjoy content. Maungaturoto, New Zealand.

Wow, what a nice surprise. My ancestor Pedro Fernandes de Queiros bestowed the name Espiritu Santo , as well.

[@LawrenceBroussard]

Incredible perks of the job. Weird out of the wall question. Since your moving often how does the crew get hair cuts?

😂 great question, when we stop in the Marinas.

Captain, I absolutely love your videos. The food is always fun to watch. I know what MY, SS, TB etc., stands for, but what does TT stand for? God bless and smooth sailing from Colorado.

Thank you TT stands for Tender To

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Great video.

[@SuperRobertwillis]

Loving the chin strap Tristan and nice to see you back where you belong 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤

[@matao87]

As much as I loved your videos aboard AWOL, the back to back charters probably does get old. I can't wait to see the adventures you'll get into at the helm of Espiritu Santo!

[@noyfub]

Beautiful

For some strange reason whenever you say "stromboli" I get the urge for Italian food.

[@michaelcima5772]

Like the new content very much.

[@cersos]

What I'd give to do this. I've captained my own 58', but nothing like this. I would embrace the challenge. Wait, is that a CRT monitor? Might be time for a helm update. Costly, but worth it. A glass bridge would be beautiful there.

[@terryjuggins1362]

You have a job I a million. I love watching you,,love the HAT,,Tristan what happened to the CAR ???

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Thanks 🙏. I sold the car a while back. Never really used it.

Glad your back behind the wheel house,, Does the Crew not want to be filmed?.. theres only 3 of them,, cheers from Alaska

[@diggerddawg]

I remember a song from my youth that went "on top of Stromboli, all covered with cheese....". I take it that ole Stromboli must've blown the cheese off the top since then?

[@KingdaToro]

Please do a video on your new crew! We've only seen a tiny bit of Keenan and Morgan so far, and nothing yet of Pearl. In particular, I'd like to hear how the responsibilities divide up with only four crew members rather than eight.

[@koomaj]

Now that you have had more time to learn all the yachts systems, it would be interesting to hear your thoughts and comparison to AWOL, which probably had little bit more modern and different systems on the bridge.

[@hlcdriver]

Head up vs North up will will get you the online equivalent of a mass brawl in aviation forums. Personally I'm a North up bloke too, but hesitate to admit it as modern nav software is so good at rotating the map, re-drawing the text, etc that track up has almost become the default.

[@raymondhayes3299]

I'm from New Zealand and thought I saw a NZ flag flying on your boat. I enjoy your videos. Thank you. Keep an eye out for a NZ couple heading your way. They have a Nordhavn Yacht called Aranui NZ. Brand new out of Turkey. They are making their way back to NZ over the next 3 to 5 years.They have a You Tube channel called Aranui NZ.

[@stephen_1987]

Definitely an NZ flag, kind of interesting considering I believe its an Australian Flagged vessel. NZ owner maybe.....

[@blueocean2510]

​@@stephen_1987 At what position on mast is the National flag of Country visiting flown? The EU border Police and other relevant authorities observe, the lack of PPE when using small craft, to visit island from larger vessel.

[@BuckeL91]

Great video Tristan! Love the shots from the helm under way and also the tender action. How come you prefer north up on the radar/gps?

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Thank you, I prefer north up because of traditional paper charts are always North Up
