To tell the truth I was a little worried you were getting away from your roots by getting such a nice new boat. Part of the appeal of your channel is that your viewers can easily see themselves in your shoes when you are using such basic equipment to have such amazing adventure and I was worried that your channel would become less relatable with the fancy boat and all the technology that comes with it. Having watched this video and seen that the new boat can get you to places like this amazing lagoon, my worries have evaporated. It’s true that I probably won’t ever have as nice a boat as you, but holy cow this place and your footage are at a whole different level! All the investment and work are paying off and I’m excited to see more trips like this one! Cheers, mate (from Las Vegas, NV)

Yep this comment means a lot, sums up many of the worries and things to navigate while trying to keep the channel down to earth. I stress about it a lot. Hope you keep enjoy all the new adventures🤙

I’ve watched Rod from kayak to skiff to sail boat to this beautiful set up!! While we are all envious of the beauty and perfection of what he is filming…. You’ve got to hand it to Rods videography!! It’s just superb and I drift away into a very good nights sleep every time he posts a video ❤❤

[@Hrogthar]

@@rokkitkit The fact that you worry about it is a good thing. It means it's something you care about, which I appreciate completely.

[@toms4123]

Your boat setup is just amazing. I wish I had found your channel a few weeks ago before I bought my boat.

[@user-nd2nb9ep2l]

Quit watching youngbloods after I found your channel. Just stick to your roots man that’s what we love don’t go Hollywood on us

[@rokkitkit]

Not a chance🤙

[@chats5957]

Absolutely agree! Still remember when Rod giggled at the end of one if his first Misty videos with his wife, saying: "I've got a girl in my videos...... Crazy.... Hahaha" He's made it to 440k subscribers without any clickbait, hype or boob/arse/bikini close-ups. That says a lot about how genuine he is.

[@afiqhadriamil8289]

what a bluish ocean... crystal clear.. nice burgers... good camping setup.. at its finest ... thanks for that.. ✨

[@NoelMckinney]

You need to do some voice overs when editing to let us know what you are seeing when you are snorkeling. We don't have those kinds of fish anywhere around Indiana. It would be nice to know what we are seeing.

[@hb2sami]

Beautiful water, amazing Greeting from the opposite side of the world, Alaska.

[@minstrikefishing]

Your boat is very attractive and versatile👏👏🥰

[@Saltyequipment]

epic place for a sleep. can't image this with clear skies at night and the amount of stars on the sky without light pollution. maybe clamp some magnetic pool lights to the bottom of the boat and enjoy the night within your massiv aquarium :)

[@dustinh4175]

The ocean scares the hell out of me. It's still mostly unexplored and for sure contains species we haven't discovered yet including mega predators

Just found your channel tonight, I’m from Wisconsin and for me this is fulfilling a dream I never knew I had. Subscribed and will continue to watch your videos that are made so perfectly. Very happy to have found your channel, and will definitely recommend your channel to friends but please don’t cut your hair!

[@PatLindsey-ro7wq]

Thanks for all the content. You have inspired me to go fishing more than once.

[@exceptionalish614]

Saw a youtube video on boat propellers recently where the blades are actually loops instead, supposedly much quieter and about 15% more efficient for power/fuel usage. Maybe you can look into that as a new boat upgrade at some point! MX-1 Sharrow is what I found when googling, not sure if there are other brands available at this point though.

[@Bepis13]

Great vid as always. Maybe try a way to roll the tarp back to just cover the bow area. That would make fishing from the main deck area easier. Can’t wait for the next vid!

Love how you take pride in everything you do 🤙🏼 well deserved my friend. Oh and that was some of the best underwater footage I’ve ever seen! God created an unbelievable spot there 🤯

[@j.d.johnson-r9k]

One thing that's great about your videos besides the relaxing nature, cinematography, cooking and everything else is how you talk during the videos. It feels like a conversation with friends, saying your thoughts as they come and not so orchestrated/fake sounding like other channels. Makes it super relaxing/relatable to watch!

[@DyingStarsGaming]

thank you so much for taking us along with you, so many of us aren't able to escape from our daily busy lives but your videos do just that. I've been watching your videos for years and just realized for some reason i wasn't subscribed to you. . I can't thank you enough for taking us along with your adventures through bad and good times. at the end of the day you more or less saved lives from people with sadness and depression and don't even realize . many of us have depression along with other things but your videos are therapy. again I can't say it enough, thank you from Canada, cheers mate!

[@thegreatnorthwet5864]

It's like the new boat has inspired your filming game as well as your sense of adventure. Amazing video thank you!

You may be right, I’m definitely excited about the new places that are now within reach 👌

[@the_astro_garden]

Love how real your videos are, no cheesy music and scantily clad women, minimal editing, great narrating, I feel like I am out there with you!

[@hole-sawbear1500]

Who needs boobs and butts in a thumbnail when you've got incredible landscape shots of the sunset like this guy? You can chuck a dead cat into a Walmart and hit 3 different women with their assets on display, but you don't see a sunset like that every day.

[@Camp3r]

My man. I'm sitting here in Alaska. We just got 5 inches of fresh snow. I'm so desperate for anything other than winter than winter that I'm watching an absolutely beautiful video of a guy living the dream. Loved everything about this. I have to imagine the people on those big sailboats weren't eating as well as you were.

[@Smerdzy]

Hey mate, great vid. For the cooking bench space, I'd recommend using a plastic filleting tray attached to two stainless bars that fit in the two middle rod holders at the front. That way you have removable/portable bench space & it frees up the entire centre of the boat, so if you have a +1 or the family onboard, it won't be a hazard. I also found that the flat camper stove tops sit almost perfectly on the sides of any stabicraft. So you could use the side of the boat to cook, which again, frees up the deck. Cheers for the content 🤙

[@chats5957]

In addition to this idea, make the filleting table the correct height and you can use it to bridge the gap between the Esky and front platform and remove the need for the cross piece used currently for sleeping.

[@mikel3188]

That snorkeling was awesome Rod, so picturesque, great video.

[@jeremycole6426]

Such a cool place Rod I was up there last year on a game fishing trip. Wished we had more time to explore it under the water. Such an epic adventure loved watching you doing it in the tinny, must be so rewarding pushing the boundaries solo! Might have to try that burger recepie mouths watering now🤣 Keep up the good work great filming as usual.

[@rokkitkit]

Cheers mate, Yea definitely a pretty nice area, definitely can’t wait to go again and see some of the other reefs close by🤙

[@albertfuste9315]

Hi Jeremy, what's the name of the islands? Cheers

[@BeowulfNode]

@@albertfuste9315 Not sure if he's doing it on purpose, but he doesn't say. Maybe to help protect the spot from the crowds. But I saw enough of a clue in part 2 to see this is one of the islands in the Great Barrier Reef off Queensland Australia. This particular island is 64km (about 40 miles) off the coast. When he said it's the furthest he's been in this boat I was expecting him to say how far.

[@iain1969]

What a bloody terrific set-up! As an occasional boat camper myself it's evident you've come up with a great system there. Thanks for the video.

Awesome work Rodney! You were on fire with the trout on rod and spear! That fish burger looked delicious too mate! 😊

[@Omegawerewolfx]

I've never camped on a boat before but I have kayaked off the coast of New Jersey out to 12 miles from land. Unfortunately the waters don't look as anywhere near as good as your location and it gets really choppy so it's not as peaceful.

[@JonLynchIsAlive]

I'm working remotely in my house in the suburbs of Dallas, Texas (highs well into the 100s all week). I'm envious of your proximity to a beautiful reef and island, your setup with the boat, using your spear gun to catch fresh trout and going to town with that awesome sandwich. You are a blessed man sir. Thanks for sharing because it made my day.

How do we get this channel to 500000 subscribers? So authentic, interesting and honest.

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

Looks like an amazing time. I don't know what they cost there, but in America, you could buy a Lexus for what one of these 1450's cost, granted this Stabi is probably cooler. The fish sandwiches looked delicious, but a bit of relish and a squeeze of lime might just finish it off right. Cheers.

Bro get your diver flags up mate, it's only for your own safety. I was seconds away from being hit by a boat spearfishing in the Caribbean. It happened so quickly out of no where, I can still see the prop whizzing inches past my head vividly. I'm lucky to be alive.
