To all the other sailing channels out there, this is how you do it!!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thank you David!

[@mickmccrohon]

We are anti sadists, we know you are enjoying your 'suffering' more than we are enjoying our daily lives. Your channel is the most authentic sailing channel on UTube. And the underwater/food/swell/pure sailing footage kills it!

[@rogerstone3068]

"They're delicious too, which is unfortunate for them..." - yes, that's what I'm here for. Go, Troy and Pascale.

[@justforfux]

51 seconds into the video.........you two are a very well matched couple.......I envy you both - a long time viewer.

[@hanknaclek9747]

Love the sailing sequences and am constantly impressed with how swift and well balanced Mirrool is, watching how light the helm is. Reminds me so much of the boat my Dad had built in 1960 and the shape was almost the same as Mirrool, just slightly bigger at 34'6. We kept her for 46 years as she was such a joy to sail. Mum only sold her because she was 78.

[@benhorner8402]

My absolute favorite sailing channel!

[@darrylfisher4640]

This is what I like fishing, calm bays, , diving, and warm weather. Thanks

[@robertgephart7190]

I am so happy to see you sailing again. Thank you for taking us along on you adventures.

[@BrassLock]

At my advanced age, I don't envy your shenanigans on, and under water. But I do have a very satisfying feeling that you young-uns are living great lives into the New Milennium. For those that seek it, the _Good Days_ aren't just in the _Old Days._

[@johnproudlock1085]

It is not that I want to see you two suffer. It is that you two really sail.!

[@johnwebsterwallace4884]

The steam coming of that soup...Psychological heaven!

[@jamieminton172]

A spacious rain locker attached to a 40 gal water heater, a washing machine and dryer would be coveted. I had to chuckle at the "Home Cooked Meal". Thems crocodile tears. LOL

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

I admire you two choosing to sail off shore in a tiller steered boat of the size you sail. It is good to see a couple productively living off the sea.

[@buffalobob2002]

Great video! Delivered everything as promised. Cameras can't capture the magnitude of waves, but that was the best capture of the sea state I have seen.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks Bob!

[@justforfux]

I was going to say something to the same effect.

[@lylenesvold167]

I just love Pascals giggle.

[@percival3830]

Loving the way you navigate your life and adapt to changing conditions.

[@richardp4544]

Glad to see you two back on the move. I'm sure you enjoyed the break but it seems to me that you are both happiest when on the boat. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@davidferry548]

You have done a great job with the refit, sometimes the best boat to buy is the one you already own

[@svbarryduckworth628]

You do have to start with something with good bones though. You can't polish a turd.

[@philipritson8821]

You may not be able to polish a turd, but you can roll them in glitter!

[@bryanbadger6841]

G'day folks. Calling in from across the ditch here in Nz. It's just great seeing you heading away. I had a good feeling about this episode. Sailing. Fishing. Diving. All the ingredients for a great adventure. Back to "Free Range Sailing." Take care folks. Atb from over here.

[@miguelpaixao1317]

Hurra!!! Sailing, fishing, enjoying AGAIN!! and surfing waves!!.. i do miss it!!! One of the BEST feelings when sailing. Like everyone says: it is contageous! I am positivly jalous from you!!! Thanks

[@zerofox7347]

Hey guys I’m looking forward to seeing the next round 😆I’d love to see lots of fishing and more shots from the stern seat of Marrool👍

[@ralphy101112]

Fabulous video, as usual. Always a peek into the sailing life . Fishing, drone cam, floundering panchetta, sailing, cooking, diving and lobstering. Thank you for letting all of us tag along on your adventures. GR022. New boat registration numbers?

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Yup. WA rego

[@beniank9091]

Got my navy tee, man the waves were huge great sailing guys.

[@LarsBocher]

What a great intro. Your enthusiasm is totally contagious. The real beauty, however, is in all the details: Securing a preventer without leaving the cockpit. The image of the hand resting on the stanchion. The pretty and very functional little swing at the end of the tiller. Sailing so fast that the wind generator stops. I could go on, and I'm happy that you are too.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Cheers Lars! So good to be exploring our home state once again.

[@rickwatts7885]

It’s truly wonderful to see you both back on the open sea! You both look relaxed and back at home! Thank you for your offer, I just ordered my long sleeve shirt for the coming cooler weather. And I ordered it in Navy blue. I looks like it will match the color of the water just off the coast of Perth. Have fun and stay safe!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks for the support mate. Navy is our favourite colour!

[@t1corvette]

Thank you guys for continuing to deliver amazing content! As usual, this has been the highlight of my week!!!

[@rp37027]

An amazing video… wonderful job filming and editing. Already on par with the very best sailing channels on KZbin, they still get better with every posting. I especially appreciate the little touches that show your personalities, the love for what you do and for each other. Thank you for the hard work to let us experience your adventure with you, although vicariously. And thanks for the FRS gear! ⛵️

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks Ron and thank you for your generous support! Pascale

[@oceanictranquility7782]

Pascal and Troy, I don't know whether I've been following you guys for to long and have now become attached to your style of video making and sailing Marool, but to see you both sailing, diving and shopping for dinner is both exciting and a bit emotional. I am so glad you've decided to go back to sea and make great programmes. The sailing and sea state sequences are so real. It's clear you both enjoy life at sea. Personally I find your work both inspirational and encouraging. Thank-you for letting us into a great way of life. Soon, however, that'll be me! David

[@Garryck-1]

My second thought... at the 13:00 mark. "Wow.. so even Troy sometimes fails to get a headshot. He's mortal after all!"

[@FreeRangeLiving]

The shame...

[@mathewdavis-adventuresandd6643]

Dang, even on camera those swells looked big, and cameras rarely do them justice.

[@michaelromer7115]

I have always preferred the videos where you catch your food and cook it. Keep up the good work.

[@AA5SA]

Fish heads, fish heads, rolly-polly fish heads, fish heads, fish heads, eat them up, yum!

[@Blueybob]

Fan-tab-ulastic. Portrait of two people relaxed and happy with each other, their chosen life and gorgeous conditions.

[@billyhinton9155]

Hay guys what a wonderful small sailboat with a wonderful young lady to help you out when you need it... I like your video's so much keep them coming ok???

[@rexstiger6090]

Great to see you on the water again! I look forward to continuing with you in your adventures! Thanks

[@markc3717]

Glad to see you two set sail , even though it got lumpy. Saw this somewhere - an African proverb - smooths seas do not make skilful sailers … I reckon you’ve had more than enough non-smooth seas to refine & build your skills - time for some enjoyable cruising. Thanks for taking us along.

[@MaShcode]

Nice friendly neighbors those lobsters!

[@Bruski68.]

Hey Guys, great to see you sailing again, I half expected you to sell your boat and become landlubbers, glad I was wrong about that.

[@matthewprather7386]

Best scenery, seafood, and sailing video in a long time! I'm guessing some of your mental bandwidth is restored after completing the refit, somewhat hurried shakedown, and good family visit!

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Definitely enjoying a much slower pace as we cruise up the WA coast!

[@nealmcdaniel2619]

Loved the Spanish lobster (spiny lobster) roundup - nice size carpace - good for grilling as kabobs skewered with peppers and onions between - little salt and pepper and drizzled with honey / butter melt while cooking -- yum. Same as we do it here in the Bahamas

[@barneyscott8634]

It's great to c your under water shots , I love the the West coast even though I am from east coast but spent 5 years over there and u can't beat the fishing keep going and c u soon

[@spiritflower6640]

Yep 😊all the good stuff in one video! What a magical place, these islands, and, you guys sure do eat well I say yay for some easier sailing... you still get surprises along the way no matter! 😁🤙i just bought my first frs merch! 👏🎊

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@Lawiah0]

I'm calling your Tiller setup "Troys Power Triangle"

[@FreeRangeLiving]

might send mixed messages? may have to throw it in a video for a chuckle. thanks Schpankme. Pasc

[@patraic5241]

For a nice stock. Carrot. Onion. Celery. Fresh is best but powdered onion or celery will do. Half to a full teaspoon of pepper. Fresh ground is best but pre ground will do. Cover with about 3-4cm with water. I usually don't need to add salt there is enough in the meat and bones. Boil for an hour to one and a half hours depending on volume. Depending on the size of the pot makes 2-5 quarts of stock. I like a big stock pot so I get more like 5+ quarts. For meats. One or two filleted fish carcasses. A couple of lobster heads, legs, and remnants of the tail. Beef or pork bones. Leave any trimmings on as well as the fat. Lots of flavor in the fat. A well picked over chicken carcass. Half a turkey carcass. There are to many dishes to name that the various stocks can be used in. Home made stock does need to be used reasonably quickly but will keep in the ice box for upwards of a week. Btw it's nice for a warm up just heated up in a mug all by itself. I prefer chicken or beef for that. one of the really nice things about stock is you use what would be otherwise be cast off from the meats you have on hand. So you get at least 2 and up to 4-5 meals out of one batch of stock. Now That is efficiency.

[@gymcoachdon]

Great video! Keep this up! I just ordered a T-shirt, happy to help out that way.

[@HopeOfJoe]

Great episode guys ✌️ 🌞 ✨ ⛵️ ✨ When I can see nothing but sky from your cockpit, I know you have some big swells going on. Great photography for sure. ✨🌊⛵️🏝👙🌞✨

[@dgs0011]

Totally awesome 👏

[@RobertSmith-vk4it]

wonderful as always

[@andyboobowen140]

Absolutely amazing

[@deeparks3112]

Dread pirate Pascale was handling that tiller like a champ, the two of you seem very relaxed, and oh my does Mirrool slide across the sea!

[@Tomm9y]

I hadn't noticed before how Mirrool is so canoe shaped. She's more like a 25ft boat with overhangs. A sea kindly boat.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

yes she has a very narrow beam and an "almost" canoe stern! We love her overhangs. She looks a lot like 27' wooden folk boats

[@shieldaigbencher]

Thank you. Great news you are continuing into a second lap. Loving it.

[@CindyCThys]

Love you guys

[@brianb6603]

Excellent as usual!!!

[@goxsha791]

[@jaysoncody8716]

The Sea Food King !

[@p.r.h.3451]

Fishsoup for Breakfast, now that´s Hardcore, you must have British Ancestors.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

soup for breakfast is best breakfast!

[@p.r.h.3451]

Gread to read from you, I can´t even imagine to have fish soup for breakfast, if I would have that for breakfast I´ll feed the fish, within a second, I´m more a Bacon an Eggs or Hardroll and Marmelade Type. Enyway you´ll have a Fan in Germany, I´m looking forward to your next adventures.

[@johnno6183]

Loved the shots of troy in slo mo, and rough sea at end ov vid..

[@shaunglendinning]

Glad you are back on the water! Loved the video, especially the underwater footage. Looking forward to what's next. Cheers for now.

[@charlesseymour1482]

Great sailing vid clip. Fair winds and following seas for you two lovelys.

[@garyfroeschner2523]

good stuff

[@butsobutso]

Great to see you back on the water. I'm curious to see your lobster catcher. Could you give a brief demo in an upcoming video? Seems an easier way of catching rather than using a spear. Cheers Pete & Sue.

[@gkeyman565]

All your video's are Awesome !!!! Have a great day

[@Dutch_off_grid_homesteading]

heya yes you are sailing again and doing your thing

[@waunetaroberts3161]

Just how delicious were those Lobsters 😀. You two are great!!!!

[@dirtyoldfarmhand3]

Wonderful.

[@peterdriscoll4070]

Lobster! Yum yum yum.

[@deankoch7305]

Hi. I saw you on Izzy's channel Sailing girls for a brief second at the end one of her videos. Nice to see you 2 again.

[@reddyman6915]

First class video.... well done 👍

[@Waterverf51]

The boat is sailing beautiful. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@richardherndon1541]

Very enjoyable video! It fully lived up to your opening statements. Fishing, snorkeling, drone video, great sailing on cool seas! All we could ask for.

[@tophatter15]

Bloody Ripper video. Thank you!! Cheers n beers. 🍷🍷🌹🌹🇦🇺👍🏼👍🏼

[@Gold_Hunt_Australia]

Hello Troy and Pascal. You are both looking so wonderfully healthy. I am hoping that you will continue sharing your adventures for many years to come. I have been going over some of Malcom Douglas's Kimberly adventures and couldn't help but draw parallels with the love that you all have for nature and remote living. I could really see land based video documentaries in your futures. Your ability to share your knowledge and enjoyment of all things free range are inspiring.

[@FreeRangeLiving]

Thanks so much Steve for your kind words and comments. Who know what the future holds!? Hope that vintage caravan is coming along nicely ;-)

[@Gold_Hunt_Australia]

@@FreeRangeLiving yes it's coming along fine. Lots of rot to get rid of so it's taking a little longer. All now replaced, insulated board and first cupboards going in. Water tank goes in tomorrow. Then the floor. It should nice alone nicely from there. Cheers

[@allanhwhite.kineticmobiles]

It has been a wonder to watch and learn from your wonderful videos. Your mutual respect and care for one another, Mirrool, and our Earth is inspiring. Thank you for everything you are doing and sharing.
