THE END! Of a BOATING season. 4 days underway and on the move!

[@traveller9625]

It's beyond me how anybody could be mean to you guy's. I have been watching you since the beginning and have nothing but respect for you. Haters will be you know. Luv to you all.

[@Batco-Carl]

Great view of HMS Price of Wales 👍🏻 🇬🇧

[@dalemorris8609]

Hay kids 😊 I enjoy your antics. You remind me of my adventures & stunts I use to do. I have the most respect for all of you. Keep 🎥 filming your adventures. My God bless your future endeavors. 🦜

[@harryrose9144]

We love all of you too. Good for Penn for holding people accountable for their comments. ❤

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Hahaha he’s very protective of his family

[@papa.mike01]

Brooke I love your editing/production and music. You have a real talent for this. I’m so glad you use this talent to bring us along with you family on adventures only a few of us could possibly afford. 🙏 thank you so so much.

[@msomusicco]

Great episode. I think its wonderful that you let people know, these kids read the comments! although I don't know why anyone would be mean to any one of you guys. I really like your videos. I have owned several boats but never lived aboard one. So it is nice that you show how it really is to live aboard. Thanks!! Hope you all have a great time on the off season.

[@benburra6655]

Good man Penn! You only have 1 MOM! And DAD too! Family first!👍

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

You got that right!

[@timobrien4971]

Hi you guys, thank you for sharing your adventures on mermaid monster, I truely enjoy what you get to do, mom and dad are way cool, its fun to see the kids having fun too, Thank you for sharing.

[@dougpreston9080]

I don't understand how anyone could say something negative about any of you (except maybe Braden's attempts at fishing in the beginning! lol). All of you are so positive and uplifting! Brooke and Braden have piqued my love of boating and I can't wait to get a trawler and cruise the world! I love seeing the kids grow up on the boat. Roo is handling lines now and being the best big sister. Penn makes me laugh constantly just being himself. Leo is growing daily and is almost ready to walk! I look forward to your videos every Sunday with bated breath and am genuinely disappointed when there isn't one, but I know that you can't put one out every week. I love that you show the realities of boating with its highs and lows and not just a glossed-over version of your life on the water. I look forward to your next video, and maybe we'll cross paths on the water someday at eight knots! ♥

[@martinbowers852]

A message for Penn, young man i''m 65 years old and have been cooking pancakes all my life, and i cannot cook them as good as you can, good job buddy

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Penn told me to tell you “why thank you my good sir” haha.

[@kippskorner9459]

I just love catching up with your beautiful little family! I love the snippets of Captain--so fun to see how big and gentle he is. I still remember him as a curly pup! Enjoy your time on land doing all the things. ❤ Give Captain a squeeze from his first family! 🐾

[@KandiSueTheBlue]

We have watched you since the beginning. Rooney and Penn have wonderful morals which you have taught them. You all are quite incredible, honest, funny, interesting and respectful and I'm glad you called out the nasty people who have nothing better to do than criticise. You have your hands full with a toddler, a dog, two high energy children, filming and editing, home schooling, provisioning and cooking, not to mention a yacht that is very complicated to run, plus all the cross country and overseas travelling and family you communicate with. You both have our utmost support and respect. We totally agree with Penn and in fact, I believe it's unlawful in Australia to use profanities on the radio although I've certainly heard some ring dingers!! Keep doing what you do best. Thank you for your wonderful sailing channel. We love every episode.

[@chadholm5518]

You guys put out good videos and I enjoy watching your adventures

[@papa.mike01]

A chill captain is really important for the crew or guests. There is no excuse to upset your guests, family and crew! I’ve done this since a child and have seen and heard every type of captain or would be captain.

[@tj-kv6vr]

"A chill captain is really important for the crew or guests. "Maybe one day

[@damoncarter300]

I cant understand why anyone would say anything mean to your family. You guys keep it up and do what you always have been doing. I subscribe to only 3 boating channels. Mermaid Monster, Tula's endless summer and Out on the reef. You guys are doing a great job.

[@timothyfoster7564]

CAPTAIN TIM HERE YOUR KIDS ARE GREAT, TIGHT LINES AND STAY SAVE

[@m.e.r.y.l.m]

You guys have the cutest family ever! Love your videos and your kids are growing up so fast! Are both you and Braden Captain's?

[@bobuncle8704]

That was kind of cool to see HMS Price of Wales R09 up close like that.

[@robertbondy7416]

Enjoyed this video. Read the article in Lattitudes and Attitudes about you and your family. Fun article and a great story. Have fun out there.

[@malcolmvella5533]

Love your family life!!

[@jaybee9269]

Leo’s getting so big! (HMS Prince of Wales and the other carriers were cool, too.)

[@FredB916]

Love you guys!

[@belarusss13]

Rooney is so good with the baby I don’t think she’s going to be a policewoman I think she’s going to follow your footsteps living the best life on the ocean.

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

She is the BEST daughter/ sister anyone could ever dream of.

[@bobblack6816]

Boy!! Does this bring back the memories! Six runs from Florida to Connecticut AND back! For three years! You’re making all the common stops we made!

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Cool seeing the Prince of Wales in port.. neat!👍👍

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Great episode! Stay safe MM crew! Keep rolling! 👍👍

[@kpence1965]

What another great video. Thank you so much for sharing. I don't know how anyone could be mean to you or your adorable family. You both are great parents raising amazing kids. I can't wait to see your next adventure! Safe travels. Kelly Pence from Colorado

[@JerseyLou]

How can anyone say mean things about such a beautiful family?? You guys are great. Good job Penn!!! Take care Jersey Lou

[@KenDavies-qv3fs]

You guys are all super great. Thank you for sharing

[@rrt216]

What a nice relaxing episode to watch I don't say this nearly enough I appreciate the amount of work you guys put into putting these videos out thank you as always stay safe thanks for sharing see you next time

[@Luke22022]

Happy new year to all of you! Thank you for your closing statements to remind everyone to behave. It's a great new year message for all of us. Your crew, Penn and Rooney, are even more delightful as they get older. You and Braden set a wonderful example for all of us, your joy is infectious. Thank you.

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Thank you so much!

[@JrR-fw5ph]

Penn you’re such a smart young boy😊 don’t let those mean people bother you. Keep smiling kiddo and move on….👍😊

[@louispierce3552]

Beautiful music really makes it enjoyable to watch.

[@williamtrusler1508]

Great video! Those kids are the best.

[@papa.mike01]

Woohoo, new season coming!

[@timgreen4137]

I live in Great Bridge. So i recognize all of the landmarks you've passed by in the area. Ive seen you a few times at AYB on your way through.

[@charliequizinator5405]

Great videos you guys!! Looking forward to next season!!

[@rodneyross5282]

Your a great family the kids grow up so fast. I know 4 girls and 2 boys, now great grand father. I was interrupted several times by grand kids while watching Leo try to learn to walk. Will not be long now. God bless this wonderful family.

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Thank you so much!

[@rickinnes]

Nice start to the day watching your video - 6am on the West Coast.

[@fish1860]

Love your videos. We lived in Belhaven for a year . That was enough, we sailed on. Currently on a 42’ Chris craft in the Bahamas for the winter

[@MY_SOLACE]

You are super woman…my hat is off to you and family. Btw, welcome to Florida. 😁

[@rickflanders2423]

Great to see you all getting back to the boat. Hopefully we'll see you coming back up the Chesapeake Bay this spring.

[@davidperham897]

Enjoy your time on the water,doing great your both registered Captains Little surprised to see brown water both of the bow & stern Kinda thought about you guys traveling south like us snow birds, but I guess you are not alone Enjoy your holiday Cdn. Dave

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

That was filmed in October! We r in warmer water now :)

[@onasledoverland]

Who could ever be mean to you guys? I really truly love all your videos. You do boat life so well. ❤❤

[@jeff1616o]

When it comes down to it, y'all just rock. Looking for more of Penns commentary. 😊😊

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Penn is one of the funniest people we know. We need to share more of his commentary for sure. He’s got all sorts of opinions on everything.

[@bobblack6816]

I can’t agree with you more! Running at night in the ICW is never a good idea! Safety first!!

[@jeff1616o]

I love those sunrises and sunsets on the ocean...

[@kaspar_1982]

i had a wrist rocket for a very short time before i got it taken away. tell Penn my mother used to shout from the window, " it's only fun until someone loses an eye!" 😁

[@papa.mike01]

Leo getting his sea legs! 😊

[@paton57]

Hey guys you should be down here boating around New Zealand, your winter is our Sommer

[@stevenlageson1868]

How could anybody say anything mean. Love you guys. The kids are getting so big. I gotta say learning to walk for Leo has got to be a challenge on the boat.

[@annieng86]

Hello from Scotland, God Bless You All.

[@papa.mike01]

Cool shirt Penn! I love it.

[@gebi4pejo1]

Jealousy is a curse, if you don’t want to watch don’t watch I reckon. Your all good people I always enjoy your journeys and trips. ❤🇦🇺

How could anyone be mean to such a lovable family?

[@garycox9807]

Great vidio.

[@what_do_you_know_video]

We love you guys! We live in St Thomas USVI. If we can ever help you as you pass by us let us know. My wife runs a provisioning business and I am a appliance repair tech. We have been on this island for a combination of 28 years. Keep it up fellow humans...

[@billmcgarrity1241]

Many, MANY moons ago i would travel to St. Croix twice/year for work and spend roughly 15-18 days down there per trip. I love it down there. Would stay at the Tamarind Reef Inn and the company I was working at was located in the Mt. Welcome area of Christiansted. Always took me a day or two to relearn how to drive on the left side of the road. It’s so beautiful there.

[@kevindeacetis5376]

Thanks, guys love you all to God Bless

[@LaszloBagi]

Another great video!

[@GregoryMueller-ss2qv]

That reminds me of my youngest daughter and my middle daughter 21 years ago when my youngest was learning to walk 🚶‍♂️ 💓 they grow to fast Brooke 😢❤

[@winky32174]

I would never be mean to you or your kids! have a great day!!!

[@SmilingMoon-qj7nk]

How soon are you going to let Rooney run the helm to give you and Braden a break. I am looking forward to seeing Rooney and Penn doing all the work while Mom and Dad just lay back enjoying the trip.

[@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER]

Soon!

[@paulsmith9961]

O Love watching I don't know how you are getting the income

[@joannatripp2267]

I had watched from your beginning but got so frustrated with not being able to comment so I just gave up. Then you popped back up yesterday. Yay. Everybody has changed. I’m shocked. The kids have grown so much. A new baby that walks. Sorry That I have missed so much. I live on the intracoastal waterway in Sneads Ferry but you have already gone to Florida. That guy shouldn’t have been cussing on the radio. I’m back.😂

Yes:)

@@ABOARDMERMAIDMONSTER you should promote your music if you are allready doing that where can we check it out

[@marvinmiller3946]

Mean people mostly don't know they are being mean. Usually, they are just lonely people who lack the education or ability to communicate properly. Pity them. Don't be mad.
