Real Time Update: Selling our MONOHULL buying a CATAMARAN mid-pandemic! | Sailing with Six | S2 E1

[@markworks1324]

Awesome parents = awesome children = awesome family. Thanks for bringing us along on your adventure.

[@sailingwithsix]

You’re on it Mark! Thanks for the comments 😊

[@FrankJamger]

What a terrific upgrade! The Torea VI was a cozy camper, but Happy Days is a splendid home on the sea. You each now have proper beds and some personal space. Pippi being so young and healthy should heal up well. Good for us fans that you remain enthusiastic for new adventures!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you Frank… a proper home on the sea is true!

[@dkcoats]

All your kids are beautiful and remarkable but I have to say it - that Pip has a certain je ne sais quoi. Fair winds and calm seas to you all.

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you. I had to look up ‘je ne sais quoi’ but totally agree! 😊

[@kptbillburkett8735]

All I can say is what a life!!: Just ran across your channel and looking forward for the next video. Ok until next time Aloha from the Big Island🏝 of Hawaii 🏞🍹

[@sailingwithsix]

Aloha Hawaii thanks for joining us 😍

[@mothman411]

Blimey! Poor little pumpkin, glad she’s on the mend.

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you

[@latitudeash]

Oh I hope she gets better fast. After all those miles, she gets Hirt on land… crazy or what.

[@sailingwithsix]

Yeah crazy huh?! She’s healing very well. Thank you 😊

[@silaslang]

Just discovered your channel today, and already binging it. Then I saw little Pip in a cast and I had to scramble to find out what happened. Poor little thing so glad she is okay! But yeah such a positive loving family, and I'm so excited to be able to join on all these adventures with you all. This is my new "feel good" channel! Keep on going, and best wishes from Canada!

[@sailingwithsix]

Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining us 😀

[@gypsyroverontheroadintheword]

G’Day fellow Aussies! I found you guys thru Sailing Zahara…they mentioned you in the latest video and I decided to check you out! Ive been binge watching your episodes…not done yet, but I had to jump in here and say I have been thoroughly enjoying your channel! I am so humbled, impressed, blessed and thankful to have found you. Apart from all the crazy, amazing adventures you have and are on, the most important adventure we all share is our faith journey with our God and Savior Jesus Christ✝️❤️🙏🇦🇺❤️🇨🇦❤️❤️. You are an amazing family! I am from Adelaide originally and now live in Vancouver…its a long story😀…suffice to say I was blessed to have parents (Dad was an Aussie, Mom was a Canadian)…so Im actually an Ausadian😂, who loved to travel and they gave my sister and I the travel bug. But more importantly, they gave us a love of Jesus. May our loving heavenly Father continue to bless, keep and protect you all on your continued journey! In Christ, Tracy

[@sailingwithsix]

Hi Tracy, thanks for popping over from Zatara and watching… and becoming a Patron no less! What a legend!! Enjoy the rest of the videos 😊

[@shaunpalmer700]

Pippi is such a little sweetie and I was shedding tears seeing her in hospital glad the little trooper is all ok

[@sailingwithsix]

She has blown us away with her ability to deal with this and is healing well. Thank you

[@JrR-fw5ph]

Wow! What a video…I wasn’t expecting to see the little sweetie with broken bones…. Glad all has worked out. Slowly I’ll get caught up to date….😊

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@Heysupdan]

So sorry for the little girls injury, God speed with her healing and your journey…

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you she is healing well 😊

[@denniskopon2018]

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us guys. I love you, and wishing you prosperity and blessings

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you so much 😊

[@pwalkz]

Good on you all, glad you have made it to such your big goals, just shows never give up… what a family, love it all…

[@sailingwithsix]

Yes! Thank you!

[@suziq5293]

Hey Pippi! I did the same when I was your about your age (5). My friends brother had a broken basketball hoop leaning against their garage. We had great fun swinging on it til it crashed onto my arm. My leg was not involved, lucky me! Sail on little one and stay safe!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks a bunch for the support 😀

[@paulb9842]

hope everything heals perfectly! God Bless! Stay positive!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you so much!

[@bradstone3160]

The trip from Puerto Penasco to Mexicali is pretty long. She's a trooper. Also, I normally only see Cats in the south lot but you guys were northies.

[@sailingwithsix]

Yes she doesn't remember that ambulance ride but it sure was a long time for mum! We were on the Northern lot there was a few other cats in the northern lot when we were there too.

[@advrider76]

Congrats on the new catamaran! That should be awesome for the kids, more room and more stable. I am so happy to see that Pip is feeling better and everyone else is having fun. Looking forward to the next update and seeing the new boat

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you, yes loads more room and planning to do more up to date videos to show you the new boat!

[@imgoodru2840]

Poor lil Pip... im so glad she is healing... healed... Much love from Pa. In 🇺🇸

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you x

[@vickisalazar5727]

I’m so glad Pip is on the mend. That had to be so scary for you all. Big hugs to you all!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you Vicki. Pippi is doing amazingly well!

[@vickisalazar5727]

I’m in love with the new Cat. There are other great Cat sailing families out there and seem to always help each and support each other. It’s like one big Cat family. One example is Riley and Elayna from Sailing La Vagabonde. They are from Australia and are the nicest people. They would be a good Cat friend to have. Best wishes for your familie’s new adventures!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you. The sailing community is pretty incredible 😊

[@warrenmills1213]

So thankful Pip is healing. Prayers are continual. I have studied Lagoon Cats by Jenneau. Best one 53. Can't wait to see a tour of yours. I have watched all your travels. Now we can start all over. Be safe. Be well.

[@sailingwithsix]

Yay, thanks for the prayers... a tour will definitely be coming soon!

[@warrenmills1213]

@@sailingwithsix 😃♥😃wow hi so happy to hear from you thanks. Looking forward to see a tour. I am guessing your around New Zealand. Crazy scary eastern Australia. Be safe. You were close to me when in Yuma. I am in Apache Junction. So now big miles but so close in Christ's Love.

[@warrenmills1213]

Writing before your Cat tour. I have my brochure ready. Port is left hull maybe where galley is. Starboard right. Deck with hard roof will be so wonderful! Bow with trampoline. Aft with sugar scoops room for dingy. 4 berths lots of storage. Great cockpit nav station. You will be spoiled. Can't wait to see how close I am to how it is and if netting. Nice cat guide on-line taught me a lot. Enjoy. Ep39 beautiful underwater photos. Good job. Thanks.

[@EddieCastillo-x7q]

I admire your family hi! Archie a family of sailors

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks 😄

[@wesanderson7918]

My wife and I just found your lovely family and are now following. One day we hope to join you out on the water. Until then we look forward to watching your families adventures through your channel. So glad your daughter is alright. Much love and prayers for safety and a ton of fun adventures. God bless!

I follow along on Insta, but it's great to have the real time update to put all the pieces together. I'm glad to hear Pip is healing well!

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you... we are going to try and do closer to real time videos so stay tuned!

[@drewjones1356]

Top vid, that was a huge reset’ from Fiji to Mexico. I was thinking the broken bones were from an epic skateboard stack and hearing the true story reinforces what awesome kids you are raising and what a legend Pip is 👍😎. Looking forward to new Happy Days adventures.

[@sailingwithsix]

Thank you so much for your continued support Drew! I'm glad you're not gonna ditch us since we moved to a cat! Still a few more videos with our beloved Torea to come as well as the new Happy Days adventures.

[@Travelling_Jonoberries]

Gidday there guys, top notch episodes, hope all is going well 😊 - nice catamaran- tried to look up your Cat and vessel watcher but could not find Happy Days? Anyway take care and safe sailing, cheers The Johnos Noosa 🇦🇺

[@nathanmountford7768]

I saw your boat!! I distinctly recall seeing your guys’ Cat in dry dock while a friend and I were visiting Rocky Point (aka Pensaco)! Hello from Arizona!

[@sailingwithsix]

Yep! That would be the one.

[@christopherleger9943]

That baby is so precious God-bless her

[@sheldoncrane3588]

Sunset Beach, lived there for a couple of years, on Sunset Island. Great memories. Did you guys rent kayaks from my good friend Ken at Sunset Kayaks. Congrats on the new yacht. Glad the little ones on the mend.

[@sailingwithsix]

Sunset beach was awesome. Unfortunately we weren't there long enough to kayak but will let our friends who live there know. Thanks for your support!

[@warrenmills1213]

Me again. Bay of Islands Fiji. Unbelievable beauty. My Lagoon 55 brochure has galley starboard nav station port. Sleeps 8. Owners version plenty room. My guess still in LA. Hip hip for Pip. Hooray getting better every day. Let us know soon

[@sailingwithsix]

We are all good! Working on the boat tour episode for you... coming soon. Thanks for commenting Warren!

[@warrenmills1213]

@@sailingwithsix Thank you! I don't have FB or Instagram. I will look for the tour on UTube. So much crazy in the world looks good for getting better before Christmas. My Dad used to fish in Rocky Point. I love San Diego. Super marina south of airport across the street from Best Western Palms with super yachts. If good Christmas, I want to visit again. I was worried because of the cyclone. Be safe.

[@jeremyrussell2266]

So looking forward to your next adventures! Heart broken over Pip's accident and so glad to see her on the mend! I continue to pray for you all!

Thank you for your support and prayers Jeremy.

[@joannadevereux7714]

This vid is great thanks as, while you generously share snippets of your exciting journey with us on Insta, this vid put it all together and fills in the missing pieces. Wishing you all the best on Happy Days and hopefully a boat tour is in the next vid :)

[@sailingwithsix]

Hey thank for the comment! We plan to get some more videos up with the new boat and a boat tour is on the list. Thank you for your support!

[@warrenmills1213]

We are worried. Please let us know something. We love you. We are praying.

[@sailingwithsix]

Please don't worry about us Warren... you will see more frequent updates on FB or Instagram if you get concerned. Thanks for your prayers.

[@slowtravelling2196]

Great video guys! Congrats on the cat. She’s a beaut 👍

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks 👍

[@Javad01]

Thanks for the amazing video; Shall I know the built year of the Leporad and how much you bought it?

[@sailingwithsix]

It’s a 2012 leopard 46 and we payed in the low-mid USD$400k range. 😊

[@nortonmolly]

Excellent story and video 👍👍 Is that the same catamaran Gone with the Wynns have?

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks for your support... it is the same brand as the Wynns just a wee bit newer.

[@thorsten5610]

Hi! First of all i wish a speedy recovery for your daughter. i am one of your new subscriber because it‘s amazing who you handle it with your family. Where did you finde the cat? Which Plattform. Maybe you can help me to find some new because I am from Germany and know only the Europeans.

[@sailingwithsix]

Welcome onboard! Thank you for your support. We actually found the boat on a fb group.

[@Andrew.Hollett]

I wish I was following you agers ago - I would have told you - you would have had no issues leaving Australia - you fall into an 'Ordinary Citizens' definition for automatic exemption - as someone who spends most of their time outside of Australia. You didn't have to apply for an exception - just rock up to the airport =). I have brought many people into Australia including Australians living overseas (USA & UK) and had to get them home through the pandemic. Never had issues -

[@sailingwithsix]

That would've been handy to have you onboard but I guess we figured it out in the end. Im glad you've been able to help many others. Thanks for your support :)

[@AliKhundmiri]

I was enjoying the video until the sirens sound came in. God, how is she now? hope she is healing fast.

[@sailingwithsix]

Sorry about that. She is doing WAY better now - running, jumping, swimming like nothing ever happened!

[@stephenmahoney9531]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@briananthony4044]

Gee you all look and sound like Australians from first look. Where do you all hail from? This was written before you first mentioned Australia in the video.

[@sailingwithsix]

We’re from Gold Coast, Australia 🇦🇺

[@wayneanderson1641]

When you edit your videos check your audio very weak. Thank you great video other than that

[@sailingwithsix]

Thanks Wayne - still learning but will certainly look into improving it.

[@tancolvis5240]

Great choice for family of 6 to hv a cat then a monohull

[@nurseae]

Not seen my 84 year old mum for two years, still cannot get an exemption it’s all so wrong

[@sailingwithsix]

I'm sorry... it's been very hard for so many people. I hope you get the opportunity to visit her very soon.

[@jamielancaster01]

Come to the United States you are going to love the northern hemisphere🎉

[@sailingwithsix]

Looking forward to exploring!

[@Maloy7800]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? I've watched FIVE episodes of your travels (I'm a bit slow, I know), and in TWO of them Pippy (Pippi?) first had her face cut up by what looked like a supertanker propeller and in the other, what looks like a launchpad LADDER to a spaceship fell on her! And those fractures... JESUS H CHRIST!!! Seriously, guys, think about citizenship change. Yanks, psheks, guidos, rooskeys, paddies, even limeys for crying out loud! Aussies are just not made to survive in this world! Good thing she recovered and let's hope that little walzing Mathilda is done for LIFE with accidents.

[@warrenmills1213]

Another comment before the Cat tour: stay away from Man of War jellyfish tentacles, Lion Fish, Puffer Fish, Morey Eel, squid, Octopus, giant spotted whale mouth openings they are like suction vacuum and inside is acids and remember shark can smell one tiny drop of blood miles away. With the ladies an important note. With 2 hulls and a deck between each person should have shark zapper, GPS, cell phone. Also on a good thought have a HD drone that can video from high above. I worry because "Familie Fleury" a family of 5 sailed a cat. I followed them. They have totally disappeared. I hope they are ok but no videos remain. If you sail to Chorvatsko, sail north clear water as if floating on air lovely coast villages and an easy sail to Rimini Italy. Hugs and prayers.
