Big Boats Don't Belong Here | Risky 400 Mile Bahamas Boat Trip Exploring and Diving the Exumas

[@sigma5210]

I'm a local captain in great Exuma, born and raised here, I run tours up in that area and at the lazy river (the cut). The guy "tryna see what's going on" in the intro was one of my classmates. The private concierge at Ole Ike Bay is one of my best friends, I know mikey and a bunch of the other guys in this video. Insane to see you capture such crazy footage of the spots that I run through almost every day. I'm surprised I didn't spot your boat out there I would've came up and said hi. Cheers man, thanks for coming through and showing off my island.

[@ProjectEditzzz]

super cool

[@des3558]

Your class mate was wearing a Grateful Dead Shirt. Very Cool!

The addition of Mikey has made me a permanent subscriber to this channel

[@RuckusFishing-n1p]

Probably the best fishing channel on KZbin. The content and cinematography is top notch! Also love the voice over and constant knowledge and information. Also family is everything!

[@asyla3389]

That is the most beautiful grandma I've ever seen 😅 I would have never guessed, I thought she was her sister. Beautiful family ❤

[@patrickward7671]

Bro never ever ever forget you have taken me to places I've only read about and I know I dig the efforts.

[@hookedonthebaySWFL]

Clay and Stephanie, you both are such an inspiration. Your vision of family, adventure, and fun are on point. I really appreciate your videos. I love watching your videos in the morning, because they help get me motivated for the day and I look forward to every new episode that you put out. Great work and may you always Avail!

[@douglaskeppel7517]

Clay and Stephanie and can’t leave out the baby girl living the life so happy for you guys, my biggest role models. It’s a dream to take my wife and kids to the Bahamas by boat, awesome boat I love it, keep them awesome videos coming.

[@Tfam305]

Please don’t stop making these amazing videos! Your camera/drone man captures the best shots I’ve ever seen on KZbin !

[@olddiver]

Every one of your videos remains in a class by themselves Clay. That said, your Bahama explorations are pure escape in paradise. You, Stephanie and little Keeley rekindle my memories of Exuma long ago. I thank you for that!

[@AC21578]

I’ve been watching for some time and I have to say this is one of my fav vids. Why? How you set things up with the footage, narration and story telling. Just amazing! 🙌🏼

[@ericchaney4661]

Love this video guys. As a person who has been to the Bahamas many times when I was young and as a family man taking my wife and son, I love to see how you and Stephanie continue to grow your family while doing what you love.

[@darkshark2855]

As a native exumian dude this vid was great, been following you a couple months now and the vids getting better and better. Lol mikey dont know how to stop smiling

[@dacvidz]

Amazing experience and mind-blowing video production above and below the water!!! Nothing like a Sunday morning with coffee and a new episode of LBTB! The FOMO is the only drawback!!!

[@DustyRolle]

My Bahama land this is a wonderful video you are very fortunate to experience the true beauty of The Exumas. Even though this video captures the beauty greatly, I want people believe me when I say this, the camera still doesn't capture the true beauty. The colors are ten times more beautiful in person. If one wanted to imagine what heaven looks like, this is the place to go see.

[@arvado4832]

I really felt the need to leave a comment guys. Cause this vid is so awesome. It's such a high level content. You can really see that you guys put a lot of effort in this. The scenery is so great and beautifull. Unfortunately I can only dream about it. Thanks a lot that I can be a little bit part of your adventures! With love from The Netherlands.

[@bigz7325]

Now this is good content. This is the way to film marine life, fishing, and boating. Keep up the high quality content please

[@francisrankin504]

Don't get no better than that!!Friends drinking and fishing and chilling on the dock together....man looks like a awsome time!!

[@Lisa-qu5rv]

Yay a new video for my hubby and I to watch ! ❤

[@travisgravois]

One of my favorite videos of you guys. Production quality is on point! Big fans down here in South Louisiana!

[@raybowles8587]

Wow, another awesome video. I think this one has to rank near the top. Beautiful scenery, awesome diving and catches with great company. Really enjoyed watching. Thank you guys for sharing your time with all of us.

[@sailorman8590]

Awesome content today!! Got to watch the video a few days late as my mom is in the ICU on her last days. Your channel cheers me up!

[@PalmBeachesPaul]

What an amazing KZbin channel. Your cinematography and storytelling is the world class. I just shot my very first boat video this week.

[@333333cc]

Great movie kids we’re actually in Exuma right now and I pulled up your beautiful video. People have no idea about the beauty that one can see in Exuma. Our house is waterfront with a seawall that the waves crash against which is about 15 feet from our back door. There is no prejudice or division here. (we are patriots from California) I can talk about it, but unless you experience the love that exudes here you just won’t get it. XO

[@henrylewis7652]

Your family and yourself are absolutely blessed, my man 💪 🙏🏾 💯 Your content is undefeated, eases my PTSD every time. Bless You

[@manningredd7332]

The main man Mikey, been going out with him 9 years in a row and he has taught me everything I know about spearfishing. Also the guy who runs the conch shack is Ronaldo who is Mikeys Co Captains Brother for the Island Boys. Great charter company Mikey and Deon always know how to have a good time.

[@HenryDail-910]

Nice trip, Grandmas are always worth their weight in gold.

[@juliafiore120]

Another gorgeous video! The camera 📸 is amazing! Hands down the best quality for sure!

[@obieandlaurie]

Such an enjoyable video, loved the smiles around the catch and the cook.....good for you all. Cheers and thanks for sharing!!!!! 🥰

[@Ohio_Public_Hunting]

Loved this video and the great hospitality of the Exumes! Never a dull moment with your family!

[@MrShlong50x]

Trey is such a good presenter with mamma snipes and the chunky bear. Love you guys

[@toddjones1403]

Clay…….

[@ashleyblack7679]

Hi love your videos and it was a pleasure to meat you last summer thank you for spending time and Creating videos for us at home to watch

[@Blakeneal407]

Great video, one of your best to date really enjoy seeing the whole lifestyle like I’ve said before when others just show the fishing.

[@rukd8746]

Clay!! We just got back from exuma three days ago and loved our time there. We had to take a plane but rented a boat for a few days out of Georgetown and had a blast! Your trip looks like a dream!

[@neukin]

Great tour of the area for sure. That Renaldo seemed a bit sketch or defensive at first ha... but then stacked those kronk bowls up high haha. Love the culture

[@SaltLifeExpeditions]

Amazing, Bahamas are so magical. It’s hard to travel anywhere but those islands and the people are truly epic. Thanks for the video during FLIBS.

[@Nezzer57]

That has to be one of the most beautiful videos I've seen..! Great work, Team Avail 👍🤙👏👏

[@ontherighttrail]

Another epic adventure guys! Met you guys a couple of times and you inspire our family every time you put out a video! Our boat adventure is in the near future. In the meantime, let me know when you are ready for your Lambo or a track day at The Motor Enclave!

[@markballard9300]

What a beautiful place! And what a way to travel to it. Thanks for taking us on the adventure!

[@paulkersey2179]

Wow, that was an awesome trip, beautiful, thanks for taking us along.

[@mikeiva3896]

I was smiling like Mikey and the rest of you Clay the whole video. Awesome trip. Can’t wait to do one.

[@YourBoatHere]

Amazing video and scenery like Clay said , you guys always make me want to move to wherever you visit 😂🙌🍾

[@robmelissacenters4431]

Was awesome meeting you at Ft Lauderdale boat show. Thanks for getting me into this. Our next adventure is in May for our 2nd trip. We are going further than Chub this time kinda like this video!

[@freedomwanderer]

Those trips to the bahamas are the boat trips I want to take. Great video.

[@RichardHulsey-g9l]

Love what y'all do! Don't ever stop. Just keep living❤

[@reyinthe6ix]

Great video, always love seeing Exuma. Been visiting there for a good couple of years. A note to others that want to visit Exuma. Most of lower exuma and Elizabeth harbor is considered a national park, so you can't fish in those areas. So make sure to go with a licensed Guide like Mikey that will take you to proper spots to fish.

[@jacobmeyers3421]

Can't wait to get the Whaler back out in April. Videos like this make me hate life in Cleveland. My heart is here.

[@oldmantod]

OMG the Baby Pix!!! Great vid, keep up the hard work!!

[@bierschlumpf1962]

Respect, what great high quality video! The video is so beautiful that it makes me cry Greetings from Germany.❤

[@lockhartmatthew]

This is a super cool trip! I've been talking about doing this for the past 2 years, but I don't have the right boat...yet. I feel like every video y'all do, I get new goals!

[@RamjackSeawall]

We got our much smaller boat grounded in that same spot you got stuck. i am amazed you were able to get your sized boat through that area even at high tide.

[@sharonbraselton3135]

What your drsft

[@RamjackSeawall]

@@sharonbraselton3135 It was a small 18' rental boat so I dont know for sure but probably not more than 12" .

[@RichieRichpobutproud]

We had 30” of snow last week. Think I need me a little Exuma!

[@Nautitimeadventures]

I always love the more vlog style videos

[@Antdevv]

[@gittojr1]

What a freakin awesome video, worth the wait!!

[@chuuksjo2022]

I've been watching your channel all the way from the Federated States of Micronesia, Chuuk Island.

[@MrAirblown2009]

See now this is real content. You know, he isn't just puffing his lips our throwing up peace signs, rhyming the ending of every other sentence. I've only dreamed of doing this trip just like this gentleman is doing it and a nice expensive boat to do it in as well. Bucket list experience I will have.

[@willjam465]

Looks absolutely beautiful there in the Exumas. You are living right! Can only imagine how good the fish and lobster must have tasted! Just spent a week down in the Keys over Thanksgiving and made a point to get in as much fresh seafood and fish as possible.

[@projoiners]

Amazing place...very good vacation...and what's more Amazing..the weather was great... thanks for making this video... #blessingsflow

[@adamcain4603]

Man what a place it's picture perfect

[@SteveFromWyoming]

I can't help but to watch your vids from the start to finish, another beautiful day with Life By The Bow. Are there direct flights to the Exumas from Florida?

[@MikeG-gl6rq]

Love the videos, love the family and coming along for the adventures. If I had to say anything negative, it seems like you take more fish than are necessary.

[@williammathews6603]

[@lghorvilleur3864]

Clay, I strongly recommend taking your baby constantly on your boat, I was basically raised on a boat now cant live without fishing. You want lifelong company, do this.

[@wellsjdan]
