[@craigmay-u9g]

[@egonkemp3512]

Sir and Madam, to the contrary, you have more so provided us with *some of the best experiences of our time. You have been more than PHENOMENAL dad gummit! Thank you both Immensely.

[@benduckx9367]

Jack and Fran...thanks for 2024 and all the wonderful adventures! Hope the two of you, and your families, have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

[@padders1068]

Fran and Strick! Thank you so much for sharing your adventures, amazing wildlife events and filming! Can't wait to carry following along. Have a lovely break with your loved ones! Take care and see you next year! 😘😘❤❤

[@ayechillbro]

You two literally caught some of the coolest marine life nature shots Ive seen, all in 2024! Cant wait to find out whats next!

[@greatwhitenorth3717]

I would say some of the most amazing marine footage ever. It was epic!

[@crystalthompson4050]

Jack and Fran going to miss you both. It has been and Awesome time following y'all. Merry Christmas to you both. Hurry back doing your videos!! Dont wait to long to start your family. Best thing to happen to a couple. God Bless You Both ❤🙌❤🙌

[@angelcintron2122]

They are a fantastic couple...!

[@ejsman36]

Loved following you two on your adventures together! It's been well over 2 years now watching your videos. Can't wait to see where you are going to explore next and the new seabearing vessel you bring into the mix! Happy holidays!

[@sfastroworld]

Strick and Fran, thank you for sharing your adventures with all of us. I get sea sick so I know that I could never be able to do what you guys do, and I love being able to see the amazing wildlife and incredible shores you visit. I so very much look forward to your videos. Thank you.

[@jameslanning8405]

The time ashore will give Fran time to learn some new B2B kitchen recipes! "Yum!" And maybe Strick can get some new fishing tackle, lures and a "gaff," to haul the keepers onto the deck with!

[@richard_n]

I feel #5 was the best one yet. The nature encounters were truly incredible. I think it was also helped by having the new boat with some luxuries. Being able to shower, sleep better, recharge, and cook well really seemed to help you guys morale. Which of course leads to better results in filming.

[@jeffreygibson8123]

Thanks!

[@ddsy7433]

Loved every minute that you shared with us of this Trip!! Your nature shots were OUTSTANDING!! Thx for the Q&A, it does help us as viewers to appreciate that although you love what you do that there are sacrifices & challenges to your job/lifestyle. Spending as much time together does require good communication & a willingness to give-and-take, which you appear to be having success with. Hoping to be able to share in your future endeavours… and although circumstances limit some of us to the “free” content on KZbin (sorry, no social media either)…know that we never miss an episode❤️🇨🇦 Best wishes to you both in future plans!

[@sister2717]

My parents worked together for decades. Accounting at first then in their mid fifties working for the National Park service and Wilderness Areas. They spent 24/7 together for decades. Till last spring when my dad passed over. They loved each other dearly. Miss you daddy.

[@sidestreettraveltips1097]

I would have to say some of your best shots came from this last trip. Your so blessed by the life you’ve created. Enjoy it! Can hardly wait for the next adventure

[@vincentleason81]

Wishing you both the very best FESTIVE season EVER!!!! From Dublin

[@pammarie360]

Thanks so much for sharing your adventures with all of us. Have a Merry Christmas, and an even better New Year! And may your future plans come with many blessings!

[@delaray7]

You guys and the Evans couple just have to be the nicest and most caring couples on KZbin sailing. I will sorely miss this beautiful series. Wishing you all the best in life and good🍀luck for your futures. Thank you for the entertainment, the danger and the thrills. Know that we love you and you were very successful at this KZbin sailing lark. Well done 💝

[@420ChrisTodd]

My wife and I worked together all day early on too. We decided to work away from each other, tough at first but a wise decision. Hang in there. I'm cheering for you both. Embrace the adventure. Merry Christmas 🎅

[@alanpierce1900]

[@danielpassingham6851]

The Q and A episodes are awesome. You guys just ooze a love for each other, the environment and life in general. I am so glad to have viewed every episode of all your pages. If you are to head overseas I wish you all the best and hope the brothers from different mothers come together every now and then. Take care and have a Merry Christmas.

Welcome back guys 🙏, so sad to hear that this is last video , thanks for all the wonderful videos the amazing adventures of Jak , and also Fran u r perfect, yummy recipes , thanks for every single thing . Much respect and luv From Mosul-Iraq all the way to you guys .

[@courier11sec]

This trip has been amazing. The nature encounters you shared with us this go-round have been unbelievable. Definitely rivaling the greatest nature footage I've seen. As ever, I'm grateful to you both for sharing a piece of your journey with us and hope only the best for you. 😻

[@colinmansell3524]

Well another year almost gone. Thank you two for a glorious year of adventures and looking forward to more to come. I like the idea that at least you are family planning for the future. On that not may I wish you both and your viewers a very Merry Christmas with the hope of another posting prior to the 2025 New Year.

[@AnonymousG3R]

Oi Strick and Fran, The last trip started a bit rocky with the unfortunate accident of the Salty Dingo. But you have to admit, the Tortuga was an absolute gem. I live in Australia myself and just can’t get enough of the ocean. Whether it’s the bommies or the Great Barrier Reef, I simply love freediving without a tank on my back and observing the underwater world. I enjoy just drifting along with the current. On this trip, I was incredibly envious of your footage, especially the hunting scenes of the orcas. It absolutely blew me away. I sat in front of my TV with tears streaming down my face, not because I felt sorry for the whale cow, but because these shots were so extraordinary. Footage like that deserves to be protected as a national treasure. Thank you for 2024, and I’m already looking forward to 2025. All that’s left is to wish you peaceful holidays and a Happy New Year. Stay healthy!

[@Carlosf-l2u]

Jack and Fran thanks a bunch for taking us along on all your adventures. Love every episode. Have a Happy Christmas and a New Year full of new adventures, cant wait to tag along.

[@jamesblake7338]

It’s hard to say this is my favorite so far because your other adventures were really awesome too. But the photography and the amazing life forms you encountered was stunning!

[@JamesWoodring-mu2iz]

no!!! i never want this adventure to be over! love watching from north carolina.

[@stevehammond2016]

Good morning you two . Well , I guess all things must come to an end . I've truly enjoyed this " expedition " of yours . The photography , whether that of the drone or underwater , has captivated my attention and has me wanting more . I was able to see things , places as well as different species of underwater creatures that I would have never seen and for that , I say thank you . I hope your holidays go well and am looking forward to wherever you may be taking us next . Safe travels .

[@jamesdoyle104]

Great series can’t wait for the next one Fran is amazing. 5 weeks at sea and she looks like she just came out of the beauty parlor.

[@frankmgallo]

[@windycurrent]

First of all, Happy Holidays to the two of you. As always, incredible video. Thank you for the epic season. Every season just gets better. Huge shout out to Genesis for coming to the rescue!!! If I was in Australia and looking for an aluminum workhorse boat they would definitely be my go to manufacturer.

[@howardlashbrook8500]

Thanks for all the mini vacations. Hope you have a great holiday season. Stay safe and I will wait for your next video.

[@lorihumphry6379]

Your video title this week has me hyperventilating. I just love to watch you two each week and your adventures throughout Australia. This has been incredible to watch. I suffer with end stage Cirrhosis of the liver (even though it's called end stage doesn't necessarily mean a death sentence) but because of this I have thrown myself into my daughter's and my incredible "littles" they have blessed me with and have also found a new love watching channels such as yours that have shown me this incredible world. The lifestyle you live is a dream but living it through channels such as yours gives me reason to fight. I would love to think that someday I can experience this, even if only a few days, but the lifestyle nonetheless. I truly hope that your adventures do not end in Australia. I remember when Fran was so shy or hesitant of the camera and then she just blossomed. It's clear to see your commitment to each other. I can only wish you two the best that life has to offer. I only hope that I can continue to follow your beautiful life together. Coming to you from Groveport, Ohio and want to wish you both the very best during the holiday season and hope to see more from you in the future. You two are the best!!!!

[@craigmay-u9g]

[@hanbot6709]

Merry Christmas!!!! Thanks for another incredible series guys!!! Looking forward to the future, although I have to say, all other Aussie KZbinrs who have left her shores to 'EXPLORE' seldom find anything to rival what Aus has to offer.. So far your success has come from your intimate knowledge and genuine love for the land. Might not be easy to replicate elsewhere. Just some food for thought.....

[@jowitakowalik5364]

I ♥ you Guys! My Sunday breakfasts will always remind me of your trips! ;) Can't wait to see the new ones! Have a lovely Christmas!☃🎄
