Love the idea of daily videos, but make sure you are still comfortable doing them :) I would much rather catch up "only" once a week and have you guys not stress out about providing content, filming and editing all the time instead of living. But if you're down for it, we all are too :D

I am so glad and welcome that you have come to Japan. We are Korean family of six who travels on a yacht. We also started dreaming of a sailing trip while watching La VegaBond 4 years ago. and then We traveled halfway around the world, now stay in Korea for a 5 months. As a fan, I really want to invite you to Korea. If you get the chance, be sure to come visit Korea. Korea is also great to sailing and travel. If you need anything when you come to Korea, please contact us at any time. Always have a safe and happy sailing trip^^

Lenny i think Darwin's shirt looks groovy but maybe next time you want to draw A T-shirt ask Daddy if you can make one first. Make one for your Mommy to make her boo boos better. I know you can do that even on a paper you can make cards for any kind of card or picture that you want. By the way boys, Have you seen spider puppys on the Dodo? I see you are learn to sail and besides that you have more personality than there is stars in the sky! Be good, believe, but most of all be sailors! Have A good time and eat good food in Japan!

Yer the most loving Dad and consciencious person. Thanks for being Amazing. You so desrve Elayna. Im so glad you found each other. I've been watching since before Lenny & Darwin. One of my favorite episodes was when you made a joke crossing over a trench in the Atlantic with a funny name and you were using it to infer the opportunity to get pregnant. Elayna tried to ignor your tease. It was so romantic and very fun for us to be witness to your intimant moment. And Doubly so now that you have two beautiful amazing boys in Lenny and Darwin. Good on U mate. Well done. You two are the most fantastic parents and adventureors. The number one sailing channel on the planet.

Love your content but concerning the boat weight please Riley tell me what are you going to do with this information. Are you going to sail the boat differently if it weighs 10 tons versus 12 tons. I guess I just don't understand the obsession with wanting to know what that boat weighs unless there's a contractual deal with the builder. Either way don't matter to me still love your content.
