[@SailGP]

Loved having you with us Colin, wish you were in Halifax this weekend 🇨🇦 🥰

[@ParlayRevival]

It was such an incredible weekend!! Thanks so much, we wish we were in Halifax with you guys too!

[@BarbRobart]

What a great video! Been to sail gp halifax this past weekend. The excitement as a spectator was mind blowing, can't even imagine how you feel !

[@soloflight75]

Colin, you have underestimated how much you are considered a hero to the sailing community. Aperently even your heros considered you their hero. Stay humble , it does suit you. ❤❤❤

[@rossjardine195]

One of your best ever episodes yet, good to see Colin like a 12 year old on Christmas morning. Keep it going to the whole crew.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@blakebeehler4511]

You are so deserving of all the good things that come your way, Colin and Parlay Crew!

[@KiwiGreyNomad]

Great Episode Colin Still very appreciative for the invite onboard Parley for the Sail GP in Christchurch.

[@mikelaughlin4470]

That was the best behind the scenes look at Sail GP I’ve ever seen! Thanks Colin. As a Canadian I’m proud that you got out on our boat!🇨🇦

[@flymatilda12]

The world needs more people like Colin and the Parlay Crew. Loved this episode and cant wait for the next. Thank You

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you, thank you 😊

[@jilldudney8684]

Jamie's laugh is my happy medicine 😊

[@docdurdin]

Colin's life just keeps getting bigger and he keeps growing into it. You got this !!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you 😊

[@dougbennett3265]

Straight up wonderful to see Colin, Jamie & crew in the center of the sailing/racing universe. Felt privileged to view it all.

[@ParlayRevival]

It was epic 🙌🏼

[@martinhoflich6150]

l smiled for 30 minutes . l love this cats. mindblowing. Cheers from Germany

[@ParlayRevival]

Aren’t they incredible

[@martinhoflich6150]

@@ParlayRevival they are . I had a 5 m cat and when we surfed down the swell it hummed like an attacking orca .

[@wildaltarose]

Colin maybe now you can see how famous you are too. Your humble, and giving nature is why I for one continue to follow you. Your life is adventurous, and you don’t even seem to notice. Thank you so much for showing us the sail GP, I have heard of it but never knew how sophisticated it really was. These boats are incredible!

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

Mind-blowing, off the charts. Colin's elation is palpable. 🤯 Thanks for sharing.

[@ParlayRevival]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@bobfromtexas3819]

What an honor Colin and Team PR, they knew you guys as much as you did them. What a blast Colin to be on the boat for a heat, WTG!!!

[@4x4smile]

Parlay voted best sailing channel bar none. Just so entertaining guys, love it. Nailing the production and the story telling. "YEAH BABY"

[@ParlayRevival]

Cheers mate 🤙🏼

[@akpolack]

Colin may not think he belongs among the ‘professional’ sailors but IMO he more than qualifies to stand in those ranks. I’ve never even been on a sailboat but I’ve come to love sailing through Colin and his crew. Every industry could hope to have an ambassador like Colin is for sailing.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much

[@paulmoulin-l9w]

Colin, you and your mates really motivate me about life, not only sailing. your tenacity, ability to take the adversity in strides and enjoy the wonderful perks, more and more as your journey continues, keeping humble and sharing, giving on your travel, you are a model for all of us!!!

[@victoriasmith1897]

You need to meet them!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much, really appreciate that!

[@whereistheedge]

IM COMPLETELY MIND-BLOWN BY THIS EPISODE : I’M SUCH A FAN OF SAILGP & PARLAY : BOTH 2GETHER ?!!? XXXXXL GOOSEBUMPS !!!!! THANXXX

[@ParlayRevival]

Woohoo, thanks for watching!

[@zx1100a1]

Does the Emmy Awards have a KZbin category? If not, I think they should. This episode was brilliant! Cheers Parlay 🍻 👍

[@Freedom-go7pm]

You deserve all these dream come true moments Colin. You're a legend

[@josephc.1776]

Great episode! A Neophyte like me gets to see the exciting world of yacht racing with all the technical wizardry we hear so much about! Awesome also to see Colin's image in that world where many of the sailors also follow Parlay around the world.

[@ParlayRevival]

Such a cool experience!

[@jillsanto397]

So happy for you Colin that the Canadian team had you on their boat. You looked so happy and I imagine that would have been a once in a lifetime opportunity. I’m always so proud to be Canadian so I love that it was their boat you got on.

[@ParlayRevival]

Such a cool team! Still can’t believe it happened 🙌🏼

[@jeffbroome5192]

Welcome to the BIG LEAGUES Colin!!! Congrats on your experience!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Jeff! Such an epic experience!

[@brendagoodwin4633]

OMG!!! What a special moment being on Canada's boat!!! Best of luck for u and ur team!!! Very humbling!!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you!

[@BradMalpass1]

Let’s go baby. Woohoo you deserve it Colin

[@ParlayRevival]

🙏🏼

[@cmac2243]

Sail GP is in Halifax NS 🇨🇦 this weekend. Great time watching the races in the harbour.

[@kencreppin2146]

Says the tickets sold out in 12 minutes. Wow!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Wish we were there too!

[@rice0009]

Colin my Man! Grabbing life by the throat and hanging on for the ride!!

[@ParlayRevival]

😄🤙🏼

[@NevesDiego12]

What an episode guys. WHAT AN EPISODE!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@sandymac5309]

Sail GP is in Halifax this weekend …amazing to see up close…those boats are FAST….all crews are great ,but the Canadiens are doing us proud….Did an amazing “ fly by” for the grand stands and the place went crazy……..they said we have the largest crowd by three fold of all the events so far…hope to see Parley up this way someday……

[@briansmythe3000]

There Always the Biggest Crowds Them Media People have got too earn there Money LOL

[@ParlayRevival]

We’d love to be there!

[@thechickensaladsandwichman9171]

Wow! Yesterday tally ho made way under sail the first time, and today parlay kncked it out of the park w a banger episode! F50!? I was not expecting that congratulations Collin you guys deserve all of it!

[@doggonedk]

As an engineer those missiles leave me awestruck. I'm praying for you to make it on Canada's boat. I've watched every piece of Sail GP material I can get my eyes on. So good luck here's hoping you make it and can't wait for next week's episode.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks mate!

[@sunflowerlady70]

I was smiling through the whole episode ❤ from 🇨🇦

[@RMe0t7]

As a long time follower I feel so proud of you Colin, Jamie and the Parlay team, to be recognized by some amazing people just shows that what you guys do and share on Parlay really reflects the dedication, hard work and humility

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much 😊

[@derrickboscombe2385]

Great episode and what a feather in Colin's cap. 👏 Looking forward to Part 2.

[@whitneymatalone9458]

Colin, you said you were humbled, but you yourself are so very humble and don’t even realize it. We all watched you recover a multi million dollar yachts charter season by rebuilding the engine and basically saving everyone’s jobs and vacations with your fast thinking and engineering smarts. It’s no surprise everyone recognizes you dude, you’re a legend in your own right too! Don’t sell yourself short❤

[@whitneymatalone9458]

And of course EVERYTHING you’ve done to recover Parlay, all of the blood, sweat and tears that have gone into it, and how far you’ve come, truly those guys probably look up to you! Bet none of them have done what you have. Love checking in every Sunday to see where yall are at and what crew are with you! Will definitely continue to keep watching!

[@jackechan1311]

We caught up with Chosen yesterday on YT at the Halifax SailGP. Parlay is everywhere!

[@shawnshana4343]

One of the BEST episodes you've done. And that's saying something given all the quality content you create. Can't wait for next week's episode!

[@paulhellewell9468]

Great to see fellow Canucks knowing Colin from your site here. And then the invite to go out with them!!! TOO COOL!!

[@ParlayRevival]

So cool!

[@markaburrell5553]

That was so good Thank,s

[@Golithir]

This has to be the best episode you have published yet. Fantastic documentary and first person pov. I have gone from 0% to 1000% more knowledgeable about Sail GP. Brilliant, thank you all.

[@ParlayRevival]

Glad you enjoyed it! Those boats and the sailors are mind blowing

[@Ans-Ende-Der-Welt]

Amazing look behind the scenes!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching!

[@doloresbauman4797]

Wow, what a great episode! So proud that the Canadian team invited you on. I'm Canadian!!! Can't wait for next week!

[@ParlayRevival]

Such a cool team!

[@brianmileti868]

Congratulations amazing opportunity I'm glad you were able to share.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you so much!

[@ericstanke3291]

Colin, the sailors you met are some of the best at what they do and you are, in all sincerity, one of the best at what you do. You and Jamie and all of the crew you've had over the years...we can all see what happens. Parley Revival has a spirit of camaraderie that comes from you and Jamie and filters out to the crew.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Eric, appreciate that mate 🙏🏼

[@melaniebook2503]

Best episode - what a life - what an experience!

[@chrispy104k]

Hahahahaha, sure looks like it's cold when you have to add a hot water bottle to the layers. Onya Britt. Epic episode. Those boats are just extraordinary. I was on the edge of my seat.

[@ParlayRevival]

Haha it’s next level cold for us. Thanks for watching!

[@travisyoung3858]

Amazing episode guys!! So cool to see your patriotic side on how proud you were for Christchurch to be holding such an iconic event!! Can't wait until next Sunday's episode ❤️

[@ParlayRevival]

Appreciate you watching Travis 🤙🏼

[@blairnicholson4412]

Awesome video, so cool to see the access you guys were given and how close to the action you were! No wonder you were so pumped when we lucky patrons when out on Saturday! Great watch and remembering the absolutely fun weekend! Thank you again Colin and Parlay

[@Who.is.Clinton]

Dudes, you guys are up there, you are celebs loved by us, the world...

[@ninacarson5336]

Can’t wait till Sunday!!

[@melpolichuk3166]

Thank you, Colin and crew of parlay for bringing us this piece on sale GP. I didn’t know anything about it but it’s happening this weekend at Halifax Nova Scotia Canada, June 1 and 2nd hopefully I’ll be able to get down and view some of the race once again thank you very much for this piece.

[@ParlayRevival]

Definitely go check it out!

[@leroysmith8203]

Colin, it is so awesome to see the excitement in you. Enjoy yourself, enjoy your team and good luck. 🤓⛵️🤩

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much!

[@appleZac]

As a complete sail GP fanboy and a Parley subscriber from (very nearly) episode one... this episode is one of my all time favs. I watched the UK sail GP in Plymouth and you're right, the cameras don't do justice to the speed. The way they turn is crazy! Can't wait for part 2! Thanks for this edit crew Parley!!

[@anthoneyking6572]

Wow I Never Knew they sounded Like a Jet strange no one has recorded that sound when they televise the races Never Stop Learning In Life That's for Sure thanks

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching!

[@adrianchristopher5867]

That was the coolest episode I've seen from Colin and Parlay Revival. Can' wait for next weeks episode. Stoked for you and the crew, Colin.

[@ParlayRevival]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@josephhoran6084]

This is such a greet episode. I’m now even more hooked on Sail GP. I think they need to do more behind the scenes work like this. Truly fascinating and so happy for you and the crew to enjoy this experience. Just don’t understand why they don’t share the sound of those boats flying by on TV. Amazing.

[@jasonhira4671]

Crossing the Atlantic was one episode to watch..Now sailing GP was buy far the best Colin and The Parlay crew Awesome f$&king awesome

[@holodeckdragon8876]

Colin u bring the average person into the heart and the soul of sailing and then connect us to events like this that we would never otherwise become aware of. u are the link. so grateful. so special!!Honored!!

[@victoriasmith1897]

OMG! Colin you are even more “famous” than I realised! So fantastic to see what you were up to as I was driving down. You deserve it bro! Great to see my hot water bottles make it to screen Britt! 🤣 And lovely to see my mate Jackie. Xx WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!

[@ParlayRevival]

Those hot water bottles were life saving 😄. Thanks Victoria!

[@JOHN-ROSS-RAYNER]

Colin, you are extremely well known in New Zealand. You are a legend and make us really proud. We all love you.

[@JOHN-ROSS-RAYNER]

P.S. Russell Coutts has a house on waiheke Island, and he's there over the summer. He's such a humble guy.

[@South40Slim]

Wow, congrats Colin! I can't imagine what it is like to ride on one of those insane machines. Had no idea they made that sound. Too cool!

[@hempandseaweed]

First time hearing of Sail GP. I learn something new with every episode. Great video. Can’t wait for more. KZbin icons!!

[@tasiafituhill8656]

Another awesome episode. Absolutely loved it. So exciting!

[@timmy_monaz]

As Ross J says below, such an awesome episode and also an incredible behind the scenes doco! I learnt so much more about the whole setup and the series (and the boats), in that 30 mins than I have in the 4 years I've been following along. Sail GP deserves more air time like this and hopefully this will get it out there to a whole heap of new fans! AND Colin, you and your crew leave us all smiling every week mate, what you are are doing from that deck of Parlay for sailors and non-sailors all over the world is nothing short of amazing, and to be honest, you shouldn't feel like you are out of place amongst the Sail GP crew, you are just as influential and outstanding mate. Keep doing what you're, you're an inspiration to so many people from all walks of life, at all stages of life around the world, I mean....dude....those guys you look up to at SGP, they came up to you and shook your hand looking to chat! That is soooo sick! You've made it mate. You're there. You ARE one of them. Oh but leaving us all having to wait until next week for the onboard. Shit go......Hahahaha Laterz

[@kevbjork1]

Amazing boats and so cool you have a chance to get aboard. I'm 66 years old and entered my 1st sailboat race on my own little boat this year and it's exciting and nerve wracking even on my little boat. I can hardly imagine what it was like for you on one these flying rockets!

[@ParlayRevival]

Way to go getting out there for your first race!

[@trace7711]

WHAT!!! No, I can't wait a whole week for the next episode. I've followed you for a while and this is one of my favourite episodes. I love how humble all everyone is on the GP boats. I love how excited you, Jamie, the crew and the Patrons are. I wish I could contribute more but just being able to watch you from afar every week is inspiring. Awesome for you and everyone involved to get such fantastic recognition for your contribution to the sailing world. I've learnt a lot from you and Jamie and enjoy your videos. Thanks.

[@jamiemorrison4086]

On the water with SailGP in Halifax today. Your video was a great primer. Love the turbo noise as the boats go by. Thanks for the explanation. Over 300 spectator boats out today. Largest spectator fleet in SailGp history. Wind 20-25 knots. Going to be a screamer. Thanks Colin!

[@ParlayRevival]

SailGP’s only getting bigger and better 👌🏼

[@susancoots4538]

I could "feel" your excitement! Didn't realize I was smiling so big until my cheeks hurt. Can't wait for next week's episode!

[@johnallen8094]

Your very blessed Colin!

[@ParlayRevival]

Very! 🙏🏼

[@sailingmurdina]

Huge smile on my face watching Colin like a kid in a sweetie shop but honestly some of those GP guys were just as excited to meet you all. Glad you got some decent life jackets too.

[@TheETOWNE]

So envious you got a ride! Thank you for bringing catamaran racing some publicity. Awesome video!

[@st05002125]

I have a new appreciation for these guys after seeing this video!

[@thebrokenbiker869]

You legend Colin. I am so flipping jealous of you right now. I love watching the sail races here in America. Fair winds and calm seas my friend

[@pauljames9527]

Colin your hard work and fantastic character is making you famous mate. This channel just gets better. Regards from Captain Paul in Thailand

[@Bizweb_Marketing]

Legend seeing how open the Sail GP crew are so accommodating - next week's episode is going to be awesome!! I hope you are enjoying Minerva Reef!! Cheers Big Steve

[@QWTrucker]

Wow best episode ever I wish it was longer what an exciting episode I love racing boats it’s amazing how 1.5 hrs long race only feels like 20 minutes has passed. Collin you’re so lucky to be from New Zealand have an entire country supporting you watching your ups and downs rebuilding Parlay.

[@Welshchief]

Best episode yet - Absolutely brilliant episode guys, can’t wait for the rest of it. This is probably the most animated I’ve seen you all meeting your heroes and them not only knowing you but also following Parlay and your journey. Super cool and as you say very humbling and not only is that coming across from them but also from you guys also…… ever knew about Sail GP, I’m certainly a fan now and will follow it, thanks for the introduction Colin and thanks to Sail GP for allowing the Parlay Crew an up front AAA, I’m sure there will be new followers to Sail GP as well as Parlay Revival from this experience. Bravo Zulu - Fair winds and following seas!

[@shannonmize2307]

Very cool 😎 I'm excited for you and the crew

[@stanhigh]

As an Americas cup fan for 35 years (Conner) Volvo Ocean same time (Cayard) and many teams since, I am amazed by the technology and speed of these boats. So happy for you and your crew that you have the chance to experience something so few ever do. Great video.

[@kevinl8304]

This is really hard to say....But in my opinion, probably the best Quality episode you have ever put out...with all due respect to all the other episodes that have thier own place and time..keep on expanding and exploring the Horizon....

[@wilsonroo16]

Proud Canadian here!!!! so excited to watch you with the team!

[@CapriceV6]

Ahhh I can't wait till next episode! Phil is my Kiwi legend, along with Blair and Peter. Of course we cannot forget Russel and other legends of sailing. Go Kiwis 💪

Colin GOOD THINGS happen to deserving people . All the years I have followed your adventures you are one of a kind gentleman, giving person and boundless determination "Good on Ya Mate"

[@hearmenow909]

Epic. Love seeing Colin and the crew having an experience of a lifetime.

[@MsHappy-u5o]

Wow, talented "extreme" sailors and craft!!

[@RichardJackRobertson]

Too much fun - the tech is so cool.

[@OspreySailingAdventures-ch1mj]

One of your best episodes yet. You got to sail on one is incredible. I’ve travelled the world following my nephew on sail GP and it never gets boring. Well done great video.

[@lentongrovetrust5201]

Wow what an experience, thank you for sharing this with us.

[@robertwoodward5392]

Wow, Wow, Wow. Amazing, I learnt so much from this episode, the cooperative team work is a lesson for all. And the technology is mind blowing. Great to see you Colin and Jamie enjoying so much an experience of a lifetime.

[@scotttimler724]

Awesome!

[@leibfriedwolfgang9155]

It's fantastic! How happy Colin is to be there . I'm happy that I can be there! Thank you Colin and your Crew 🤩😍👍

[@j.vanliefland1910]

Wow! Amazing footage Colin. I didn’t know there is so much technology in those boats, incredible. Really interesting to see. Thank you and have great sailing around New Zealand.

[@peteracke2209]

Thanks for making my Monday morning..after a weekend of riding dirt bikes, there's nothing better than watch you guys whilst I rest my tired body before I go sailing later in the week...I love that the gp is so different from the America's cup, where it comes down to sailor skill..not who's got the most bucks..great video guys

[@markbroomhall2706]

Colin and THE crew just 'WOW" "WOW" "WOW" THANK you
