180 Days Living in French Polynesia

[@jeffreylee9799]

I enjoyed spending Sunday morning with the Nahoa crew. You produce great videos. I appreciate how informative they are. Ben’s narration really set you apart from the others. Best wishes and thanks for all the great content.

[@SailingNahoa]

I appreciate that!

[@spacewalktraveller1]

Thanks Jeff, you're a winner.

[@seventhdayissabbath8747]

The kids (and adults) playing on the toys reminded me of the boating days when my kids were about the same age as your kids, so many good memories of the kids having so much fun, learning, exercising, family spending time together and of course the BBQ at the end of the day because we were all starving from being in constant motion. They are good memories that have lasted throughout my life!! Thank you Ben and Ashley for sharing your adventures! I always look forward to the next video....

[@alvarofernandezlecuna118]

Wowwww that's the way to have fun with your kids, both of them will have so much fun in the future travelling around the world

[@christopherhutchings9621]

This is what family sailing is all about,! Love y'all ❤

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

I guessed 30 feet. I didn't miss it by much. Ashley, you've still got it, Mama. You look like a golden goddess standing with Ben at the end. Watching your family play is heartwarming. Thanks for sharing.

[@georgiarichmond5192]

I love your sharing generosity Ben, your narrative is always interesting and informative. You both are wonderful parents and the kids are so happy and well loved. I would love to meet you all one day.

[@LadyRomano]

Love your video, your happiness is contagious and I love hearing Ashley laughing🥰🥰 it's contagious too 😉

[@margwatkins5605]

So cute….all the stuffers have been washed and are all hanging up to dry on the side of the boat! Love it!

[@carlcantrell4781]

You are one of my favorite cruising channels because you actually show us other places and what they are like. Too many other channels have turned into DIY channels for fixing and upgrading their boats most of the time or they have left the boats or they just don't show the world and what is is like.

[@cbc229]

Making Memories, Family Bonding, Great Times! Wonderful video... thank you

[@rccalhoun]

yours is my favorite sailing channel. thenk you for the tutorial on hand line fishing. your kids are going to be so well rounded and mature.

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

Love you guys! Frequently, when watching other cruisers fish, I think, "they need to get a Nahoa hand-line kit." I adore watching your kids grow. Safe journey. ❤

[@justinwilliams2042]

What a great lifestyle for the family. From Durban South Africa

[@Twoaussieguys]

Wow, I just loved this video. To see the kids so young and enjoying such adventures is amazing. Water Skiing before long I suspect.

[@joannedevine2473]

The So Pacific is Magical. You’re So Fortunate!

[@lanceking4863]

Kids are living their best life. It's the reason I started sailing and raising a new family again. Love it. Well done Nahoa family. Tahiti and islands were amazing. This video is nostalgic for me to say the least.

[@peterspencer2585]

You guys are looking nice and chilled in this vid, great to see🎉🎉

[@patrickloring6914]

What a great family day on the water! Brings back memories! I'm sure you kids will never forget the "things we did when growing up"!

[@SirCharles12357]

That's a pair of lucky kids! Future watersport olympians!

[@RogierYou]

Awesome parents lovely kids. Wonderful life.

[@ondi37]

I can't believe I've traveled around the world with you and now your family. It's been amazing!!! Thanks you for all the adventures and for what's to come. Watching from Tennessee 🇺🇸

[@kee4752]

I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you guys. Absolutely the best sailing channel by far. You have inspired me to hopefully one day sail the world and I have never been on a sailboat. Happy New Year and stay safe!!

[@bc-guy852]

Teddy bear wash day!! Great episode guys!

[@mg062263]

Lovely video and so cool to see your kids playing in the natural playground. Sailing or motor-sailing.....as my friend on SV Morning Star told me, "its your boat, sail it how you want!" Fair sails guys!

[@raydenkundera857]

Greetings guys 🤗🥰 I'm so happy to see so wonderful family doing sailing, definitely both of you are so confident with small kids on board, big huging for that. Definitely when they will grow up, will have a strong mind and trust in themselves 🥰 I wish to sail as well one day and have that joy of freedom on see. Thank you very much for your videos and nature that you share with us and keep going the same way and better. Best wishes and worm hug from Transylvania Mountain 🤗🥰

[@jockknots848]

Always love your adventures and how you bring it to us all. Thanks so much.

[@jimmisura6533]

In today’s crazy world with all the war, judgement, hate and suffering, it’s so nice to see your living family just having fun playing together. Your kids are going to grow up having their best life. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Florida 🌴🌴🌴

[@msethhunter]

Living your best life. Love it! Seeing those kids drug around behind the dingy reminds me of my childhood on the lake behind Papa’s boat. Those memories will last a lifetime.

[@FunsongsMusicByPeterRahill]

35,785th tag-along sub'r view about to set sail. 7:59 - that sky looks pretty gnarly, people. 11:06 - cool. 13:50 - 14:07 - should be a sponsor - this is a great ad already-made, ready-to-go. Great episode, Y'all.

[@KenDinnadge]

Love your adventures and delighted to have met you all!

[@nemomonteflores3890]

You are humble travelers generous with amazing stories. ❤

[@cathywarriner]

What a beautiful way of life ❤

[@mloret6745]

You have a great show! Uniquely, you. Wonderful!

[@evilhomer5894]

In 2018 I spent a week scuba diving the Tuamotu Archipelago. I then spent some time on Bora Bora, Moorea, and Tahiti. It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. The water is crystal clear and the reefs are in amazing shape.

[@navarich1]

I Like The Way you guys Enjoy the Vast Caribbean, Thank You for alowing us here at home to bring a piece of your journey with us!

[@JBrooks0043]

Water sports with the kids is so cool to see. Glad you've got these memories yo remember

[@julianbatcheler9970]

Fantastic as ever. Love you guys. Can’t wait to get to French Polynesia and spend a LOT of time!

[@johnsnelson719]

Ben & Ash y’all are providing your kids with an experience they’ll treasure!

[@Ghost_Recon_Actual]

Thank you for posting this video. I believe this is the way to raise children. They will be more complete, nature-loving, and respectful humans.

[@hezi973]

You guys mentioned me in one of your videos. I love your journey and you inspired me to buy an Elba 45. I am doing my Atlantic crossing sailing from La Rochelle France. How the heck do you do it. It's so taxing sailing as a couple, but with two toddlers? Wow. You guys are awesome and tough as nails 👏👏👏

[@MrFroglips69]

Groovy episode. Love the sports toy training devices for your kids.

[@davidbarker6899]

U guys r amazing parents, i was smiling watching u guys taking them on the disc

Wow action packed episode guys! Big respect for Ben's line fishing skills! And so great to see you all enjoying the water sports, especially as I turn my thermostat down to 13c (55f) to save on the heat bill.😂 Cheers guys!

[@RogierYou]

Ben, where is the info about the handfishing gear you mentioned in the beginning of the video?

[@ericwright2702]

Some beautiful scenery as usual I had a chuckle at your comment at the of end of your show when you said about the Cost of getting to enjoy the picturess thousands or 5dollars and I think you where refuring to yourself and I thought how much you spend on maintaining your vessel and ain't no 5dollars for your enjoyment But Safety ain't Cheap stay safe

[@jodymooney255]

I always get excited to see your episodes!❤

[@wow.sailor.]

Wow sailor, great episode ❤

[@dennismatthews6660]

Thank you for taking me to places that are beyond my reach.

[@sdstube8061]

What a lifestyle. Brilliant video folks

[@sansan357]

Love your channel and your videos. Great family.

[@kptbillburkett8735]

Glad to see 👀 ya'll still out there. How is your New Boat 🚢 coming along? Is it almost done? Can't wait to see it. Ok hope ya'll had a Great Thanksgiving. And just want to say Merry Christmas. So until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii!

[@gypsyroverontheroadintheword]

So love how you guys instil the love of fearless adventure in your kids❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦

[@fgansell]

Great video, thanks, terrific life for your kids.

[@26N80W]

Can you share the information for purchasing the hand line? That looks awesome.

[@mikemcnamee6030]

@13:00 I think that is a mantis shrimp. Look them up, they can hurt you. Powerful little buggars

[@billdomb]

Beautiful work thanks for sharing!

[@larssolem2507]

Great video and fun to see the ease of using the handline under sail. One thing I'm wondering about is whatever happens to Nahoa 55?

[@bbbart77]

Beautifully done ! Cheers from snowy Ottawa 😂

[@outsidethelinessailing]

Man those kiddos grow up fast! Great content!

[@AlexKall]

4:20 and doesn't hurt the environment and the sea life like a fishing line!

[@jorgegmendez6241]

A relly cool video family at its best Thank You

[@levidaisyyoung220]

your kids are soooo clever.... it does look so special where you are..

[@larrygreenwood4613]

How are your plans for the new cat coming along?

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

French Polynesia is stunning. Thought you’d share a link to line and lure.

[@leemarvinvalencia5120]

Awesome!!

[@glendasprague3334]

Glad to hear you let them go. Love your family 😅

[@patrickstarnes2355]

It brought back that scene from JAWS water skiing.

[@SailingNahoa]

😂 DONT FALL OFF!

[@earlyvergscatchesmoreworms6493]

Keep safe and healthy.. God bless your family always...

[@deerfootnz]

I assume that was Anse Amiot on Toau? Are Gaston & Valentine still there? I was in Tahiti this year for a yacht delivery to Brisbane, but I havent git to the Tuamotu since 2017 and was wondering how they had weathered the pandemic?

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

Thank you

[@MrRicardo8714]

We’re did the name Nahoa come from? Great videos!

[@SailingNahoa]

Hawaiian for “bold” or “deviant” - was poignant for us as we went against societal norms and forged a different lifestyle.

[@christiangarner9819]

Cheaper on a boat?! No way unless you are living on it. $5000 a night is way cheaper than my boat BUT no way as much fun. Great videos of my favorite spots! Thx.

[@OM651]

you guys rock ❣

[@Jason1969-y9o]

WOW! how blessed yous are making the right life choices. Yous really are a beautiful family. Kids free. Brings a tear to my eye watching how happy yous are. Well done for making the right life choices.Yous are as wealthy as can be🕯️🙏💫

[@JudyGoodwin-l9b]

Very beautiful place! Planet earth 🌎 is a great place to live ❤️ 🌹

[@clintonmeikle8746]

When are you posting out our handlines...?

[@MrSignsnow]

Can you give more info on the hand line you spoke of.

[@myparadiseonbantayanisland9030]

Does your 30hp yamaha run rough at idle and then smooth out around 1500 rpm? I have the same engine.

[@Wendykim771]

Wow, your wife look beautiful. I’ve been watching you guys for a long time. Certainly, she look beautiful again.❤❤❤

[@markreynolds8630]

Nice! Did you get your long stay visa in advance? How long does it take? Tnx guys...

[@gregsutton2400]

Your kids...lol. So cool. 15 feet was my guess and I thought I was going high.

[@kirk9671]

How much wind came with that squall?

[@josheisenhardt8265]

Do you have any update on the Nahoa 55?

[@SailingNahoa]

Yes, very soon. Working on lots of stuff behind the scenes.

[@josheisenhardt8265]

@ Great. Can’t wait to see the progress.

[@Thaddy62]

Ben. Ashley. Willa. Bodh. It's Like Heaven, With a Very Nice Family. Stay Safe.

[@lololala4164]

The most happy kids of this world .... 😊

[@bradscott5276]

What a life. Love watching your videos. Enjoy your life, kids, freedom from the rat race

[@nytrocircus]

...speaking of boats and how fast they go, don't Y'all have a boat in the works?

[@ottifantiwaalkes9289]

Did you really sell everything and bought the boat? Did you sell your house and property in Canada?

[@HoosierPete69.]

Sorry I'm late, but Ben you are so lucky to have a wife like Ashley. I know you realize that from past videos, but I had to say it. Very few men marry a woman that has Ashley's free spirit, and beauty, Sail on brother.

[@robinjchambers845]

Where are you guys? It’s been 12 days!!! Too long….worried about you!!!!!!
