You are lucky to have like minded friends with awesome rigs. I end up with my vehicle being the only car for the trip all the time, without any buddy vehicle. Nice video.

[@matthales8857]

Love the videos mate, especially the night time time lapses. Takes a lot of commitment to get those I’m sure. Also loving Torbens new setup, the lock box I’m assuming is for rifles and it looks like a fantastic solution that doesn’t stand out like the usual options. Keep up the great work mate

[@robertrodgers1423]

Really enjoying your trip. Thought for you. Those snippets of night sky, with the stars moving are amazing. You should create a long form version to sell or view. Here is why, during the holidays in the US, there are channels that show a fire burning in the fireplace and folks will turn on their TV to watch as if they had a fireplace. Quite certain you'd get plenty of views for a video of that gorgeous night sky spinning in the background on all these giant 4K tvs everyone has at a party or event. I can imagine folks enjoying a cocktail, watching your stars, and having conversation. Just a thought.

[@k2svpete]

The tinted tray liner paint on Torben's 79 really does tie the back end in nicely.

It's Raptor coating. It looks good.

[@sassymate5684]

awesome stuff!!! how did you guys go towing that boat around dirk? did you do any modifications to your trailer? I will be doing the same thing later this year

[@roughas100]

Maybe fitting an axle that makes the boat trailer wheels match the tow 4wd wheel tracks will reduce drag in the sand , downside is the boat will have sit higher on the trailer. No complaints about the sound , you're not in a controlled environment, its the outdoors and on the water! I think the boat is plenty big enough , any bigger it gets too painful towing offroad .

[@baileymccoist3694]

20 Year old looking at getting a 4wd ute, I have 30k to spend but am happy for less or more. I will be touring and light offroading, sometimes on the beach. What should I be looking for? I'd love to get your advice and others here of what vehicle I should be looking at getting. How many km's should I be looking for? Should I buy New, Demo or Used for this price? I have my eyes on either a new or 2018 model Triton (not sure what model, maybe the GLS) or a used isuzu ute. Is LDV an option too? Cheers!

[@conscriptmik068]

Great video guys

[@jjsadv]

Audio wasn't too bad considering the issue with the mics. Not sure what work you had to do to save it, but it turned out ok.Thats why the pro's all record with head phones, they pic up issues immediately. Not so easy or practical for this type of situation, and most cameras KZbinrs use dont have a headphone output. I often use a H1 recorder at the same time if Audio is critical, then you have a back up track if you need it. But it's just another thing to keep running, batteries cards etc.

[@greghammond7956]

Haha! 36:55, spot the Telstra rope, is there an outdoorsman in the whole of Australia that doesn't own a roll of Telstra rope!😂

[@roughas100]

Yeah got a fair bit of that stuff myself but watch how UV rays ages it ..... used it as a shore stern rope a year ago , broke it while pulling the boat to shore, luckily the main anchor line was 10mm nylon, I trust that stuff.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Yes will need to happen before the Kimberley

[@jimbobjones9119]

@@Ronny_Dahl Maybe consider bolt-on hubs for dual wheels which can be fitted when soft sand is likely to be encountered, but removed for road conditions. Also skidplates for the drawbar and sections of the trailer likely to "plough".

Ronnie, Parachute pants 1990's...no, no! 1984 - 1985. I believe the mullet also was at its peak of popularity in the 80s.

[@Happy-Trackscom]

I'm watching this almost a year later but consider tying a short (1-1.5 m) light rope or paracord to one end of the trax. It increases the odds of being able to find a buried trax.

[@placesweexplore]

Hey torps do you have the measurements for your box? I could arrange something for you mate.

[@defenderoff-road]

Hi Ronny, as you frequently lose Maxxtracs have you thought of putting 2m straps on each of them so when the Tracs are buried you can still see the straps and find them quickly, just a thought... Mike

[@dubious6718]

Then the straps get stuck in/around the wheels and break a brake pipe or something..

[@arybakPMA]

Ronny, great video! My 2cents worth: ditch the boat, it’s not compatible with where you go and boat fishing is covered elsewhere. Focus on land based fishing. Can add drone fishing to spice it up. Given you carry drones and batteries for filming there are synergies there. It’s a relatively new direction so you’re not disadvantaged coming up the curve. Otherwise, love your work mate, keep it up!

[@lanceroark6386]

Ronny, have you experimented with tying a ribbon to the Maxxtrax to make finding them easier?
