do we eat shark fish?

[@evilmarken]

I'm just curious why you guys quit eating sharks you tried it once and you said you liked it you put it actually pretty high on the star rating

[@richardthornhill4630]

Absolutely incredible under water shots. Love it. Few will get to visit those islands. Thanks for bringing us along. Enjoying the Great Adventures.

Hello 👋

[@Emmabanks745]

How are you doing right now?

[@dougohboy5190]

dont forget its global warming and the reef is dying....

[@clintstinkeye5607]

That huge tree on the beach made me remember all of the repair jobs I did on boats that hit large unseen objects in the ocean. Containers busted off of cargo ships, zillions of tons of tsunami debris, whales... you name it. One boat had a timber blast through the port side and exit through the starboard side. Huge power in the water.

[@Leosarebetter]

After a cyclone one year - around 35 NM off shore, there was a tree about 8 mtrs (26 feet) in length floating on the surface, nothing really strange about that - but this tree was completely upside down, the root ball was at the surface and the green leafy side was 8 mtrs down. We came across it in early dawn, thanking our lucky stars that we didnt hit those very hard and sharp roots in the dark in our plywood hulled 45 foot boat.... Central Qld, early 80's.

[@clintstinkeye5607]

@Leosarebetter - The ocean isn't empty and I don't like floating in it. I'll take bears, wolverines and mountain lions any day of the week over floating off in a puddle. Dunno why.

[@RelaxingWhiteNoises781]

You two gave me a little sniffle and a hiccup when Stick lifted Fran from the boat! It was such a beautiful moment! It. for me at least, it showed just everything good and right! Please never become complacent or take things for granted! Always a fan!

[@PM-lz5gs]

And she said “Gracias”

[@extremelydave]

There are no words for how much I envy you two on your journeys thru gods county. I just hope you will be around for a long time, we need someone like you two to put a positive spin on our days....

[@Syntax1963A]

what a bummer, sleeping every day n the beautiful beaches, catching food and enjoyng basic life - b2b is just such an inspirational content - thank you for all the joy you bring to so many viewers...

[@water4sure]

Just love how Australian this is. Very adventurous and lover of the outdoors, with a twist of dry wit and good sense of humour.

[@brentjohnson9397]

Guys great job on ep 77...Thanks for shaking me off cooking my veggies right on the charcoal...I would have made that mistake sooner or later....it seems you're capturing more of Fran's personality...it's great.

[@sister2717]

Thank you Castaways. That last dive among the corals was magical. Never seen so many sea urchins in one place. Beautiful 💕

[@deanjericevic8912]

That kitchen @ the end with Fran cooking up the coral trout soup is where you should be doing all your cooking; a dinner free frm a coating of SAND!

[@speakfreely.1776]

Except they try to save fuel by cooking over a campfire most of the time

Another superb episode. The shark encounters are awesome. That tee was amazingly long. No idea where it came from. No one does it better 🤗

[@stevehammond2016]

Good morning . Thank you for another beautiful edition of our weekly aquarium . Seeing just how large the tiger shark was / is in comparison to the coral trout helped me realise there are no limits to what you may come across . Sorry to hear of your feeling ill . Thank goodness it was temporary . See you next week .

You guys are the best. As an Auzzie living overseas, I get my QLD home beach fix from you.. I miss the ocean so very much, and as a water person, your travels give me a little taste of home!!! I wish you went around the cape!!!

Love the fact that you try to find new species, but will admit totally jealous of the same day caught fresh seafood! Love the recipe ideas as well- being a traveling businessman. You two are great!

[@Telephony954]

Great episode, sorry you were sick. Be well. see you next week.

[@Impossibletopossible05]

This was so beautiful! PROOF sharks aren't looking for people! People are not on a sharks menu . However, sharks are at risk because of HUMANS ! That tiger didn't even notice him swimming there , she just kept swimming along her way! Absolutely beautiful!

[@myeyes1961]

9:30 that dead bird looked like our pukeko that are every where in New Zealand, top video again..

[@Naplesfrank154]

I absolutely love your videos. I look forward to watching your new videos every Saturday evening. Fran is so sweet and beautiful. Strict, you hit the biggest jackpot when Fran became a part of your life, I wish you both all the best that life has to offer. May God bless you both especially if you continue to insist on swimming with not only sharks but a giant Tiger Shark. Cheers guys. ❤❤❤

[@rontober4611]

I think you both need a vacation and just rest. Eat some Italian food. Healthy food though like you have been, just different. I didn't know there were so many little Island north of the mainland. Fortunately no big hotels either. Just natural. 💗💙

[@annakeye]

@@jarnosaarinen4583 Your comment had me go on a bit of a mission and it seems they're one and the same as pūkeko _Porphyrio melanotus_ so thanks for that. My initial thought was also, that it was a pūkeko so love to learn new things like this. Maybe they are like the pavlova in that they've both become naturalised without any actual evidence as to where they originated from. (ducking for cover)

Hello 👋

[@Emmabanks745]

How are you doing right now?

[@DonaldLibbey]

People should be reminded or made aware that throughout all the years you've been doing this, it's not all a perfect and enjoyable experience. There are times where bad weather hits, or tension and problems cause stress and it can really suck and people can even get upset and or have difficulty dealing with. Just a mention of this, which you've likely done, will keep thing's real to people's perceptions, because Mr. Murphy is more prevalent on a boat on the ocean than anywhere in my experience!!!@ Aloha from beautiful Hawaii D.L

[@artosborne]

I was on a world wide tour, with a band, and we had a gig in Sidney Australia. On a day off some band members and I went to a beach to relax. I was pleasantly surprised by how free, at the beaches, were the natives of Australia. (Clothing optional) So, I imagine you and Fran also enjoy the same no clothing options when the cameras are not on.

[@GeorgeWalker-hg5yt]

Another beautiful day 🌅, the drone is soooo special with all the countryside views,and schools of fish 🐟 ,sorry you got sick Fran, good stuff Jack, luv the new boat, miss the old one, those days were tough also,50 gallons of gas sitting in the front of the boat, auzi style😂, God bless you both,havn fun🌴

[@phillockwood8414]

Fran, I could tell that you went from having an absolute glow of health beauty around you to a look of exhaustion. Wow, that’s definitely a lesson that you learned the difficult way. You need to rehydrate. I could see it… Comes from being a long distance runner and bicyclist. Hydrate and eat the green supplement you market so that you snap back quickly. May God bless you both. My father was a military officer and I am so comfortable around guns that I wish you had some protection especially from those crocodiles.

They don't have a gun. oh boy.

Thanks for sharing the entertainment, I am sure you crew are making a lot of folks lives very happy. I hope when you are back at base camp you are getting regular skin checks, if not please do.
