Los Roques Babyyy (Sailing La Vagabonde) - Ep. 26

[@sigigoespunk]

I've been having the worst day today but now that I've seen you uploaded a new video I'm feeling way better already. I just love watching you guys, it shows me that there's so much more to life. Just wanted to let you guys know that haha please don't stop doing what you're doing. Love from Austria!

[@nemo2658]

Hope you get to have a better day!

[@shern92]

+Sigrid S That just happens on me too.

[@kahos2000]

you're definitely right about that love from the US.

[@OpenGL4ever]

@Sailing La Vagabonde Elayna, could you tell us something in German in one of your next video. If your mother is from Austria i would assume that you can talk a little bit in German. I am just curious.

[@EricRagle]

Those little experiences with local cooks and townspeople would just make it all so worth it for me.

[@benjaminspeelmeyer5583]

Watching old episodes while working on my grandfather's 27ft Hartley sail boat that he built himself in the 80s, great combination

[@steveo1kinevo]

That was the coolest gecko I have ever seen. You could be a street performer with that little guy.

[@ZombieFeathers]

Elayna is the most beautiful woman Ive ever seen. You guys are awesome, completely different way of life. This channel is an escape.

[@ssmith5650]

+ZombieFeathers agree ! inside n out heart n soul

[@stinkintoad]

Yes she is gorgeous, and the best personality I have seen in a long time.

[@flemhawker9134]

ZombieFeathers plenty of beautiful girls out there mate, keep it healthy.

[@Jpy71]

its just aus girls tbh thats what most are like )

[@robertwiley3171]

Zombie Feathers was absolutely correct on all points. Elayna when I close my eyes at night I only hope to see you in my dreams.

[@CastawayHikes]

I lost it when you were showering Elay with the money lol. Great update guys :)

[@whysthewaterwet6171]

I was crackling at that part 🤣🤣 hello from 8 years later btw!

[@SailingMissLoneStar]

As always, another fantastic video. I loved the cooking segment and that fish did look delicious. It sucks to have your tender break down when you are in such a small place. We cross to the Bahamas in 8 days, wish us luck!!

[@ChristinaColoradoan]

That money exchange was hilarious 🌞 "We're rich"... You two are so cute...

[@fuddymcfithers9819]

I love how easily you become friends with the locals. I'm sure some of that had to do with how warm the people of the island are, but I also think you two are wonderful and inspiring people as well. Thanks for sharing your adventures!

[@Mikeztarp]

People around the Caribbean islands tend to be pretty laid back, and when you're as outgoing and positive as these two, you get the same attitude back, I think.

[@sandspar]

Always preferred being myself over others, but this is the first time I say it would be a pleasure to keep company with others. Thank you for allowing such through your posts. Fair Winds and Following Seas peace

[@knight7866]

You two are an inspiration. Fair winds and safe travels.

[@JoseOldenburg]

You guys seem to share so much love and are both beautiful clearly inside and out. Got a new fan today! Be safe and keep on seeing the world and sharing it with us

[@kenai1306]

Hey guys, I've been waiting desperately on this episode. I'm a Venezuela living in the USA and the whole currency exchange ordeal is just hilarious cheers guys, I hope you enjoyed our beautiful country. Be safe.

[@video9009]

Just discovered your channel a view weeks ago. What a break from the everyday life I live! Just love it! You are great people, don't ever change! Love from The Netherlands!

[@LeonardSkinnerOfficial]

Whoohoo! 1st SLV video of 2016, I hope you guys realise how much you've done for us! Your videos convinced a pair of 12 year old twins that moving the family onto a boat and sailing the world was a good idea :-)

[@ineedcoffee4893]

+Faoin Spéir Subscribed and look forward to seeing your adventures!

[@LeonardSkinnerOfficial]

+I Need Coffee Wow, thank you!

[@LeonardSkinnerOfficial]

I hope the rest of the videos help just as much :-)

[@SVELFARO]

Good to hear from you, have lots of fun for the rest of us at home.

[@Mwaves7857]

You two make me want to buy a sailboat. I truly love watching your videos more than anything else on youtube. I look forward to every one your your weekly videos. Like this one, at 5:32 - making money rain up in there! "Fair winds and following seas" on the rest of your journey mate.

[@pskinnermedia]

The clip of making it rain money was absolutely hilarious. Well worth the clean-up work for the 1 second blip. The video editing gets even better and better, great job guys. Can't get enough of them.

[@leggy1957]

I finally have these playing in order after 10 days of watching what U Tube decided I should watch over and over and not let me move on…when I hooked this upped and started over they wanted to know why? Because you inspire me to be the me I used to be…I love watching both of you and the like minded people you surround yourselves with! You have big hearts, fun loving life living dreams and you share them with character!

[@lifeisgood3087]

Stunning beach in Venezuela. Beautiful country. Beautiful couple.

[@gaboness]

If you're still in Los Roques, go to Cayo Pirata! There, there is a small little "underground" restaurant called Rancho Pirata (it's one of the secrets of Los Roques - ask for Patricia). You'll have the best meal you've ever had! Saludos!

[@captainsteve19]

Just rewatched this one, its a goody, love how Nelli says your name Elayna, saw you smile when she said it as well. Love these classic episodes! make sure you click like everyone. Cheers Steve

[@MacNoober]

Two-Stroke Tohatsu is great motors. my 9.9 bhp is 15 years old. I use it every day for work and fishing. It simply wont die, I know because I tried so that I could get a 4-stroke. But at this point I have given up, and realized that the motor will probably outlive me. However when it comes to finding parts (not that you would ever need one for a Tohatsu) Yamaha is world wide the most common Outboard. This is not advice for R & E because they obviously know this by now. But friendly advice/help for rookie sailors thinking about getting an Outboard. Great videos by the way! You guys are awesome!

[@orelygarcia]

Amazing life style, Love your videos. You make me want to drop everything and go sailing. Keep up the good work and remember " Red sky's at night sailors delight, red sky's in the morning sailors warning. Thumbs up.

[@KombiLife]

That was a great video guys, your getting better and better :)

[@josesbox9555]

+Kombi Life Hey, were you the guys on the Chris Ryan podcast?

[@Sailboatstory]

+Kombi Life Yeah - I think so too. Continually improving.

[@wlmorgan]

Long lasting reversible contraceptives mate. Mirena, Paraguard, Implanon.

[@MrThomasp90]

Fantastic video! it's not easy to understand perfectly all your stories because i am not so good in english but always images speak for you! your travel makes me dream! go for it from Italy!

[@SulJR]

Billy Joel and these two legends. You've made my day. Thanks again for all the video's champions

[@TUBELSLIDER]

I'm at the point now where I can't wait to check KZbin to see if you guys posted a new video!!

[@andrewburnett2215]

Got to be one of your best videos, so much variety. Good food, underwater shots, problems, problems solved, and of course you both really make it enjoyable. Be safe.

[@christophercalvo3512]

Hey Riley and Elayna! Love your videos, especially the ones about fishing/spearing. Btw just as future precaution when it comes to spearing safety, the number one rule is never load the gun out of water. Spearguns fail pretty easily and its just not worth the risk. Love your videos and hope you guys are having an awesome day!

[@ThunfischXXx]

thank you so much for uploading videos every now and then. On the one hand it reminds me of old, good times and on the other hand it reminds me of the times ahead :).

[@prudence1730]

Hi Guys. I have previously criticised some of your KZbin videos for being overtly commercial and frankly rather silly. Well credit where credit is due and your latest vid in Venezuela is very very good. In fact one of your best to date in my opinion, interesting, funny and informative. Top job guys and well done :)

[@morethan4mph]

Not often I watch a sailing vid then head to the kitchen! At least I can get a taste of the sun during the wet British winter Thanks guys :-)

[@scotthert2155]

Another fabulous video. Venezuela looks like an amazing place. Thanks for sharing.

[@flomads9037]

I really liked that time lapse of the sky. Beautiful. It's not something one sees often on sailing vlogs (really hard to see on regular cameras), but I wish we would. Excellent!

[@Leo250965]

Great video!. Really liked. Los Roques is an amazing place and if you pay like a creole, being an allien, certainly the island and the whole country will be enjoyed for you only for some little bucks.. You guys are really brave, enjoy the life, keep going, happy sailling and congrats! From a Venezuelan guy.

[@texomasooner]

Thanks for the video! Stumbled on to you guys over the holiday and now have the whole family watching!

[@fernandoparedes1417]

Wonderful video, I loved what I saw of Venezuela. The Mrs. has cooked salad and fish is very nice. The time you return to Australia I will hope in Gibraltar. I live in Cádiz. I know you've been, but if you have to turn to go back prompted you eat. Happy journey and New Year.

[@FatTonyCologino]

Travel Channel needa give these ppl a show for real lol this series is addictive

[@TK-qu1ht]

Very, very nice vid! You two are so real and fresh. IMHO it's what makes your channel worth watching. Please keep it up!!!

[@dwaldick]

Thanks for the great video! Its nice to see Gran Roque again. Its got such a nice simple vibe with nice people. The sunsets there are great and I enjoyed watching them every night from the bar located beside the church. Looking forward to your next vid!

[@bryceh7469]

This was a fun episode to watch. I used to live in Venezuela and have always wanted to go visit Los Roques. Maybe someday. Thanks for sharing!

[@cheryleewilcox3332]

It is December 2022 and I am back in Venezuela. Been here nearly a year already.

[@emilyb.pimentel9434]

This makes me so happy. I was born in Venezuela and used to go to Los Roques all the time. So happy you guys got to enjoy a little bit of my beautiful country before it all went to......well, you know. I'm watching from Colorado now and you guys have been one of the only certainties of this crazy covid world!!! Thanks

[@lsmft9576]

Good to see you goofballs back!!! Happy New Year! Looking forward to the Crossing!

[@J2113J]

I never write comments on KZbin... But you guys are just great! Fantastic vibe from both of you! All the best with your journey!!! Love from a fellow Aussie

[@GivesAMinute]

Seafood cooked in lemon/lime is absolutely incredible. A chef I used to work with in NZ showed me it once and I was blown away. You can make the "marinade mix" in bulk and keep in the fridge until needed, taking small amounts when you have a particular fish (or try octopus if you can find some) as the acidity of the juices acts like a preservative.

[@mikemcelveen]

I love watching your videos, hearing your stories, living vicariously through your adventures. One day I hope to see you out there. Until then, thank you so much for the videos!

[@FrankTibbetts]

I enjoyed your video and the nice weather you are experiencing while watching a raging snow storm here in Nova Scotia. On the plus side, I will be alpine skiing this weekend. Cheers

[@JohnPorterKh6juf]

Recently I've got interested in the world and living on a boat! When I was a young man I learned the basics of sailing.. That was fun and interesting! A few years later I learned how to sail on a Hobie cat 14 foot sailboat that was a lot faster and I looked over a few times! I have always liked the ocean and being able to move around on it :-)!

[@TheFlicke]

Keep the videos coming! They help me escape the cold Michigan winter even just for a moment! Be safe you two!

[@TODOSOUNDTRACKS]

Beautiful couple beautiful trip and Thanks so much for visits Los Roques in my country Venezuela a beautiful magical place for all people in the world hugs guys

[@alexandrabisi]

Huge hugs from Romania .You guys ...I could not be happier seeing that there are happy people out there , enjoying life , the sea and the sun. Wish you all the best. Keep up that great spirit.

[@user32455]

Greatest vlog series ever

[@johnmartin8107]

That guy at 4:33 has a striking resemblence to Riley and is in competition with his "tash" ha ha keep up the great work you guys I am totally hooked.

[@Two-aboard-tuuli]

Beautiful and inspiring, we're can only dream about those big passages.

[@GnatManAllinCoIronWorks]

Happy New Year Kiddos! Glad to see you wet again. Fair winds,and following seas on your crossings,much Love. C-Ya!,,,,Peace!

[@fitzsfixes]

Love the "Super Troopers" reference!

[@chriskhall]

+Fitz's Fixes so curious how the sequel will turn out.

[@Centralontrider]

Great Job! been watching for a couple of months now. Thought I would comment. Im going to be 45 in April. I love the water. I joined the police force when I turned 18. I don't know much about sailing. However I am ready to cash in everything and try it out,. Lol! I love your videos and can't wait to see more! Safe travels!

[@davidcampbell4429]

All caught up with Sailing Delos. I’ve been waiting to get into your videos and they don’t disappoint. Cheers guys

[@Kris_at_WhiteOaksFarm]

Thank you for taking this old fart on your wonderful adventure. I meant to have one of my own in the 1970s, but I never did. At least not like your's. Have fun, I'm certainly having fun traveling with you...

[@jerardnighorn8213]

You guys are great...I want a life redo so I can do what you guys do...ok I'll just live it through your videos..lol..but I wouldn't mind joining you on a week or two adventure...

[@juanassuncao8112]

Hello ! I am Juan Carlos of Portugal and love seeing your films .Ja been in Los Roques and I was staying at the same inn where you guys were. Continue to indulge us with your videos

[@SailorRed75]

Awesome video guys...one of the best ones yet! The money scene was epic! I subscribe to many sailing youtube channels but I definitely have the most fun with your videos and am laughing along out loud everytime! Cheers guys, safe travels...look forward to the next video!

[@SailingMissLoneStar]

+Sailor Jared definitely love the videos!!

[@dmsawyer]

Always such a treat watching you guys...thanks so much to the mental get away

[@artigiano77]

Nice guys, saludos de Venezuela.

[@LazyGeckoSailing]

We love your videos! Hope to sail with you guys one day!

[@nataliedelgado5952]

You guys are amazing!! Loving your videos so far. My boyfriend and I are dying to buy a boat and sail around the world, and this has help us heaps. We are getting even more excited now thanks to you. Keep posting!!!

[@kcshannon8430]

Videos just keep getting better and better! Great idea to bring along some of your Patreons. All the best!

[@Michael_MJ]

I think you guys are brave. Good on you. Cheers from Normanhurst, Sydney Australia.

[@bluuumannn]

I look forward to your videos!! Keep up the great work!

[@sergeantderp5857]

+Sailing La Vagabonde Haha I Actually flipped a shit when The River of Dreams started playing, awesome choice in music! I would also recommend "The Downeaster Alexa" by Billy as well.

[@rustie4242]

Hi Guys, Happy new year.. we liked the vid, and are glad you decided to go even though your research said it was going to be expensive, as it turned out to be the opposite. We had been advised to buy a 4 stroke motor, but you made an interesting point about the varying qualities of fuel from place to place. So even though a 2 stroke uses more fuel, do you think it is the best option for cruisers? We are looking forward to your Pacific crossing vids, should be all downhill sailing.. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, cheers from Down Under, Russell & Malene..

[@daverjax]

Good Job Guys! You've just had Probably the BEST shot of you're Whole Series, that one with the Starfield and clouds. As for the outboard; well they do have these new inventions for when motors go bolloxed, they're called OARS. OR you could rig some leeboards on the RIB and jury rig a small Lateen Sail for the Tender. Have Fun yall, who knows, you may even finally find the Sea of Stars. F.W.F.S.

[@number9express]

You guys are too much. We ALL want to be you! Can't believe you stopped to free dive, way cool. I would have guessed the upwelling would have attracted some pelagics circling around. Are you enjoying unlimited fresh water, spraying Elayna's feet (last vid). How do you like the Beneteau in open water, considering a 473 since can't afford a cat. Cheers! More vids the better.

[@magic200100]

Well, I was bored and decided to watch some of your eps. That was yesterday. I am absolutely hooked with your videos!!! Keep recording!!!!

[@LeeLaunches]

Superb video ! I found your channel about a week ago and have now watched every episode . Jealous of all the sea food you get to catch and eat !

[@derrickc8366]

Love you guys; never stop sailing

[@craigjones256]

Another spectacular episode thanks guys, best wishes for the new year, from sunny south Australia.

[@sprudel2]

finally a new video. i ´ve been waiting soo long :) i was worried. love you guys

[@mcriser]

+Sailing La Vagabonde Ah Bonaire, you guys going diving?

[@sepehrhashemi428]

it's great to see your progression in video editing skills since episode 1, you're getting really really good!

[@stu1663]

How aww inspiring are you two. Stumbled across your videos early in December and can't get enough. Now just need to convince my wife that we need a sailboat and travel the seas and have some epic adventures! Happy New Year from Canada! Wishing you all the best in your travels and a safe journey through your crossings

[@ChasetheStoryAroundTheWorld]

Great video guys! We're heading south through the Caribbean before heading over to Panama, and were wondering whether Venezuela was worth the side-trip - it looks like it is! We're super excited to see the next installment of your time there. Fair winds and awesome anchorages.

[@wardell7]

Love all the vids guys.... We look forward to all your passages!!!! Great crew the two of you!!!!

[@PolarisTurbo]

I've watched all your videos! But I will watch the Atlantic crossing again! I'm from Newfoundland, Canada! Much love and peace to you :)

[@EnglishwithLauraJane]

I LOVE this series! So inspiring and I love seeing what you guys get up to. I've never thought about sailing until these videos, but you guys are changing my view... an amazing way to see the world! Good luck for the next leg of your journey. Love from Perth :)

[@d.c.stewart5336]

I know there is some time before you make them but have you decided on extra crew for some of your longer crossings upcoming. Love is a wonderful thing but those crossings will be a real test!

[@henryv9184]

Great videos. Here is a tip for you. Hewn you are hanging on the road off the back of the boat. put a loop in the end and put your foot in it and lay back on the rope. You can lay there forever without holding on. Kind of like surfing, planing on the water. I do it all the time sailing here on Lake Huron, ontario , Canada.

[@finalbyrnn1752]

Happy New Year. I Love the cooking part of the program. Travelling is all about exploring and eating. Also what was in the scrumptious looking dish Elena made in the beginning of the video.

[@terrilawson8569]

Started binge watching you guys. Love your videos so much.

[@andrewayres7322]

Most excellent video guys, thank you...

[@bareend1494]

I just can't get enough of your videos! You guys inspire me. I'm not a sailor (I'm more into powerboats and kayaks) but I thoroughly enjoy your videos. I wish you'd decided to sail the Chesapeake Bay but then would've been quite the detour, no? I'm not wealthy enough to become a patron but inasmuch as I've been living vicariously through you I'd like to contribute somehow. I'll purchase a packet of goodies you have on offer and Elay's album but is there another way to support your trip with a one time gift or an occasional donation?

[@kentolsen9264]

Love your story and videoes,watched them all at my nightwork..waiting for sailseason in norwy,keep filming..good luck from norway!!

[@Andyfunsail]

Why can't you make more videos like thiiiis!!! Come on guys... you were so inspirational once upon a time x

[@SirMo]

This was my favorite video. That lady is a great cook!

[@joelsdobermans45]

you two made my day always stocked to see a new video

[@GuyCruls]

the gecko sequence was utterly delightful. thank you.

[@daneschuck6242]

Wonderful vids and great commentary. Always fresh.

[@JesusFlores-td7rc]

Great vid guys. That ceviche......the best. Have a good trip!

[@dougmpage]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this channel! Can't wait for the next vlog! Happy New year Elayna & Riley! Cheers from Canada :)

[@LeeShand]

You guys are just fooooking awesome!
