SHOCKING MOMENT HUGE YACHT RUNS AGROUND ON A REEF 😲👀 - (Episode 245)

[@mikeferguson2828]

So nice you could help out Joan. She is a Legion in sailing. What an inspirational lady 🎉

[@ParlayRevival]

She sure is an inspiration!

[@michaelmcgillsnowmx]

Love all your selfless acts of helping others. Keep it up Collin!

[@dennispatrick4999]

And a Legend.

[@faelsinnes]

Has Joan got a u tube channel ?

[@victoriasmith1897]

She is probably too busy sailing.

[@barbaralane9825]

It’s a joy to watch good people doing good things. Your generosity of self is something we all can learn from.

[@ParlayRevival]

Appreciate that :)

[@thomascrook6254]

Another great episode! I've been lucky to witness first hand how Colin is always willing to jump in and help in any situation. He's too humble to let it be seen often in the videos but it's nice to see them slip this in.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Thomas!

[@raphaelriemann2918]

it’s just crazy how many skills you guys have and how often you help out other sailors. incredible kind and what a mindset!! chapeaux, you guys are far beyond conventional „nice“. keep on doing what you are doing. the world needs more people like you 👍

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much!!

[@genespell4340]

If a person isn't careful they will mess around and learn enough to become indispensable.

[@lauraphysicsspeer5029]

The world could use many lessons from your sailing community, as you are truly a sharing benevolent family.

[@ParlayRevival]

We appreciate that, thanks!

[@narrowescape81]

The reality of sailing... someone always needs help. I offer the same assistance and I love seeing you and your crew in action. Your heart is gold.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you!

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

I'll take spreading goodwill with fellow sailors over T&A videos everyday. Parlay Revival 👏 Thanks for sharing.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching!

[@lauriewalker843]

You are so kind. We need more kindness on this planet, thank you.

[@wildaltarose]

Colin you are the most giving person I have had the privilege of getting to follow. You are always at the ready to help others, and you do it staying humble and kind all the time. More and more I am beginning to think you really need to be an engineer just to keep a sail boat free of trouble. You are a legend in your own time, and everyone will soon want to sail with you. Please stay safe.

[@ParlayRevival]

Wow, thanks for this! Really appreciate it 😊

[@DDK1068]

You folks are a class act. Seems like you are ALWAYS helping someone somewhere. Thank you for that. The world needs more people like you.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you 😊

[@PaulBC1981]

Kiwi way....

[@willslever8112]

Well done Colin for helping so many people out - we need more like you !

[@randalltowers2097]

I don’t follow every time, but every time I do, Colin is helping a new friend. I added to go fund me for bees, watched the roof build, and now the greasy repair of boat engine. Quite inspiring even without the sailing and pretty faces. Cheers

[@ParlayRevival]

We really appreciate that! Thanks for your support and for following along 😊

[@pattimessenger6214]

You’re a hero Colin! I mean it. You saved the man in the sailboat, and you helped Jean to fix her engine! Bless you!

[@stevett225]

Sunday isn’t Sunday without a bit of Parlay ❤️

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks ❤

[@janineprodromidis1514]

Awesome story telling Colin, your heart is gold. So inspiring to see the comardarie between you and the other boats. Be great to see you in Oz.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much!

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

So good of you guys to help Joan & Luka. Safe travels ❤

[@ParlayRevival]

Thank you

[@robertribbit]

Ahhhh, Sunday morning and Parley Revival. Heaven baby.

Agreed, but with a fresh hot cup of coffee too!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching 😊

Something tells me your interview at the Pearly Gates is going to go quite well. ❤

[@bobjones8864]

Thank you for helping the elderly lady sailor I know you would been willing even if you had to change plans. You have the heart of a servant.😊

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Bob!

[@frankkelly2245]

My favorite 20 mins on a Sunday morning, coffee and Parlay. Great storytelling sir!

[@ParlayRevival]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for following along 😊

[@jesseroche7223]

Crazy! I'm glad his boat was ok.

[@user-zf9hn9ou8t]

To have Colin's mechanical talent! Truly a gift.

[@markbarbari3949]

Colin! Your ability to fix everything and anything is amazing! How lucky for Joan to have you anchored in the same harbor! Fair winds and following seas my friend!

[@andrewlennox5626]

You are an absolute prince Colin! So glad you were there to help Jean.

[@capt_boos]

This world need more people like you 🙏

[@rayb3117]

Ms Socrates is the very definition of what one can do at ANY age, if you put your mind to it. The fact she is 80 and still cruising is one hella b ar to top for anyone. Her awards and records are epic as well. May the wind fill her sails and her boat carry her to her next destination safely. What an inspiration to all of us. And Colin and crew, your guys have set the bar high as well. You cvontribute a huge amount of time helping other sailors, to include Jeanne, helping her get her engine staarightened out shows what a big heart you have.

[@MrAl1903]

Aitutaki is a beautiful spot my wife and I spent 2 weeks in the Cook Islands it was nice to relive those memories Thank All

[@ParlayRevival]

It sure is beautiful! Thanks for watching :)

[@buddysoul]

man, you're a really kind and helpful person who cares about the other sailors. had the same incident 2 years ago in croatia running aground ... this is an absolutly stress moment! thumbs up and safe sailing! regards from tyrol/austria

[@goleafsgo8496]

Luckily for the both boats (Joan and Luka) our engineer Colin was around to assist them both. Otherwise I'm guessing there pocketbooks would have been much lighter. 👍 you are the man Colin, a true world sailor and shining white knight. 😊

[@sergealary9756]

Colin to the rescue for everyone! Love it!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks man!

[@cindycornog8006]

Loved that you were able to fix jean’s engine!! So very cool! Absolutely love the sailing camaraderie ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ParlayRevival]

Us too! Thanks 😊

[@Who.is.Clinton]

You are a legend Colin, helping people wherever you go...angel of the seas dude...

[@ianh2674]

Great episode Colin. It was good to see a stein grenade at the diner table, not had one for some time now. Well done for assisting the solo lady - true gentlemen and keeping the sailing code going.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks 👍

[@howardhalter3032]

GOD bless you brother for what you do for the elderly. You are the solid Man that you are. Blessings sent to you and your crew.

[@joeburns91]

It's wild how much this part of the world makes such experienced sailors. It looks to me like you guys have faced MUCH more challenging situations there than in central America. Calm seas don't make good sailors. Awesome for you guys and for sharing this with us.

[@hoptimistvibes]

Just leaving a comment on KZbin because your content is always so good and because I subscribe to your channel

Great episode. Crazy how two of your prior jobs were needed. Wouldn’t be surprised if in a future episode you teach someone how to surf and help build someone’s house.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks man! Appreciate you watching

[@waderogers]

You guys really did a great job helping those two other boats out. That's one thing I enjoy about sailing my boat, is the chance to help people on other boats, or to have them help me! I've been doing high latitude sailing and boating for 35 years here in Alaska, so I've seen a lot of different situations develop over the years. Am wondering why someone would bring a 54' boat that draws 2.4 meters of water into that harbor in the first place. I know the harbormaster said 'Oh, there's 3 meters of water in the whole channel', but I mean, how many years ago was that?! It would have been smart to run someone in the dink with a lead line to get an actual real time reading of the channel's depth. Set the line to just shy of 3 meters, drag it slowly thru the channel, and if it bumps the bottom, you know there's not 3 meters of water depth. I had a centerboard sailboat for a few years that would go in 1.5 feet of water (just less than half a meter) and have beached it many times in certain locations around southeast Alaska, so I've got some experience with shallow draft situations. Either way, good work being a good mariner.

[@zillafunfun1576]

I spent a couple of weeks in Aitutaki with the family and it is a beautiful place with great people so even if it was unplanned, I am sure you enjoyed the diversion.

[@ParlayRevival]

We definitely enjoyed it 👌🏼

Colin, you definitely are a great person for what you do for everyone you meet. When are you going to come and visit Vanuatu, it will stun you just like the cook Islands.

[@johnmayer3433]

What a nice vlog full of action. As for Luca's keel the boat literally jumped when he hit the bottom so the keel bolts may have suffered quite a bit. So nice to see Jeanne Socrates once again. I lost completely track of her and did not believe her still going strong, what an incredible old lady, chapeau!

[@scottburrow8717]

This is a killer series. We had a sail boat when I was growing up in California and sailed a lot Catalina Island. But watching you guys do this is amazing!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks man!

[@sailingmurdina]

The Parlay crew to the rescue again. You've just got to get some capes. Another fantastic Monday morning mix of humour, drama, excitement and brilliant people. BELLISSIMA.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks so much 😊

[@johnviney7919]

Thank you for another exciting video, Colin and crew! It was heartbreaking to see the yacht run aground several times. Hopefully it is only superficial damage but it is still upsetting!! And more kudos to the crew for another repair job on the engine of a sailing friend! Good deeds happen often on this channel! Have a great week folks! Canadian girls are wonderful!!😀

[@DougVarble]

13:43 wow meeting Jeanne Socrates randomly and she needed help, Colin, YOU are the Man of men🎉

[@normbyron]

Colin. I think you are the nicest guy on the planet! You help everyone with your amazing skill set. It is a pleasure and very uplifting to watch you on your travels and adventures. Please never stop and try and beat that nice older lady by circumnavigating the globe at least 6 or 7 times!!!

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks for watching!

[@to5msheppard]

Sometimes call when I’m watching you. I’m thinking everyone else as far as boatowners must feel more comfortable knowing you’re around with your genius brain on everything mechanical engines. Apparently you’ve learned how to take boats off reefs! You guys are amazing but having you around for other boats mechanically must be so comforting this lady I’m sure would’ve had trouble finding someone that knows what the heck they’re doing with an engine like that where she was. that’s why people watch you. You’re you’re a genius you’re awesome young man!

[@holgerlafrenz2895]

Bless you, Colin and crew, for always being there for someone in need. Love the show. Be safe

[@user-ix4yi7ct9p]

So exciting!

[@danfadden]

I’ve said it before but cruising seems to bring out the best in humanity and draws a certain caliber of people. You might be alone crossing oceans but you’re surrounded by people who consider you family. No matter the cultural barriers (which seem to disappear during difficult circumstances), cruisers consider other cruisers family. It’s amazing to see and one of the reasons I get hooked on channels like Colins. Even though he’s an awesome person, it seems most sailors are as well. I love seeing that side of people.

[@ParlayRevival]

Thanks Dan! Appreciate you following along and your kind words :)

[@thebrokenbiker869]

Yay Jeanne! What an inspiration!

[@ParlayRevival]

She sure is!

[@Morrisfactor]

I visited Aitutaki in 1978 while singlehanding my Searunner 37 trimaran. Back then, the entrance was a natural weaving/snake-shaped route and only boats drawing less than 4.5 feet dare enter (no marina, just a cut in the coral reef; enough room for two, maybe three boats). The coral pass had a wicked current and it was full of sharks and huge groupers. Now Aitutaki has a man-made straight passage and an inner lagoon! Wow, what a huge improvement - if still too shallow. I got hired as a conservation diver for two months and made about forty scuba dives around the outer reef to check for Crown of Thorns damage (none). There were the remains of two old whaling vessels on the south side. The people were lovely! Truly a paradise, probably my favorite spot in the South Pacific. Thanks for letting me revisit!

Looks like the Wondering Hillbilly’s 54’ power cat might be a complete loss after him mooring ball broke in the BVI’s and his boat ran up on the beach. New boat. It is tragic and happens so fast. My heart goes out to anyone runs aground.

Not only have you given new life to Parlay, so many places along your journey you and your crew have given hope, life and an experience of a lifetime to others that where they might not have had the help or opportunity had not been for you all.
