Thank you Daniella for sharing your passion. May the Marlborough Sounds remain forever in your heart.

I grew up 20 minutes away from Picton, the sounds was my back yard. I moved to Australia with family in 2011 but nz has always been pulling at my heart strings so a couple months ago I decided I'm going to buy a block in keneperu or portage and that will be my new life, the marlborough sounds are my favourite place on earth

[@SailingPivo]

Oh heck yah! Was definitely one of the best places I’ve visited in New Zealand! Once I get through my medical stuff here in Auckland, the goal is to get out of the city! 💜

[@edutubesa1354]

We Moved to NZ from South Africa in 1965, came back in 1975. Lived in many places. Loved Picton and the Malborough sounds. Lived in Endeavor Inlet for 3 months. Went back to NZ in 2000 for 3 months.

5 week wait to see a doctor im Marlborough . Im sure you will be welcomed@@SailingPivo

[@siennahitchings7657]

yes i love the marlborough sounds, we have a batch in torea bay.

[@tbagindustries4331]

@siennahitchings7657 awesome place, I used to go to the snout just opposite torea for fishing with my dad. I miss NZ, will be there in under 2 months though 😁😁 only for 3 weeks sadly, wish it was forever.

[@bridgetalves5667]

What an interesting video, I loved all the history and stories you included! And I admire your strength and courage to find a way to still do what you’re passionate about, I’m confident you will make it work for both you & Conor. Wishing you both lots of happiness and good health 💕

[@SailingPivo]

Thank you for your kindness. It means a lot. What did you think of the style being more educational than being focused on my story? ❤️

[@bridgetalves5667]

@@SailingPivo Very refreshing and informative, I think it's still important to include some of your story too because it is such an unusual one but I think you nailed it

[@SailingPivo]

Indeed, that was Conor's feedback to include more of our story even when the video is intended to be informative. Thanks for having a watch!!!

[@richlee509]

@@SailingPivo it's a good video

[@colefromplanetsheepshit]

You've put in a lot of hard work into this channel. Its actually one of the better channels. Weird. that it hasn't got the subs its deserves. I really like it when North Americans review New Zealand. Being a kiwi myself but having travelled widely its always interesting to hear outside perspectives of "kiwi life".

[@kiwiaviator33]

Love your straight upness. Sailed in the Sounds and Coramandel from Wellington in my Cav 39. Fiordland next.

[@SailingPivo]

I LOVE Cavs! If you watch the episode about dealing with an unexpected emergency, I gave a tour of a Cav 45. They are so classic and well designed. When do you have Fiordland in mind?

[@kiwiaviator33]

@@SailingPivo Yes. That's a beautiful example of a Cav. They are solid blue water boats. We are looking at early next year for Fiordland.

[@SailingPivo]

I'm hoping to head to Auckland Islands and Fiordland with a rally boat or two this upcoming season! Maybe we'll cross paths? I'll post when I find a boat so we can keep an eye out for each other!

[@user-fh8qz2hj2s]

Great episode! Very interesting commentary and story telling. Makes me really want to get out there :D

[@SailingPivo]

Awesome! Great feedback, thank you. Definitely one of my favourite places I’ve sailed. So many amazing bays! B

[@billhanna8838]

Another great vid , As an old sounds sailor you nailed it . If you want something bad enough itll happen - Enjoy .

[@SailingPivo]

Awesome, that’s is great to hear! I did a ton of research to make sure I got it right. I hope this video may help other sailors thinking to come into the area! ❤️

[@bethells86]

A helpful video for someone thinking of sailing down to the sounds and spending a few seasons there. nothing beats the Hauraki gulf I guess.

[@siennahitchings7657]

defiently go, i sail around there for a few weeks over xmas every year and it creates so many core memories. I reccomend going to Torea bay and Resoultion bay. Amazing spots.

[@kathyirwin]

Hoping to do some sailing in NZ when visiting my son there next year. So interesting to hear about the sounds and the history of the area. Thanks Danielle

[@SailingPivo]

That’s awesome! You will have such a good time. It’s gorgeous here. Will you charter a boat or sail on your own?

[@kathyirwin]

@@SailingPivo I'll charter. I have a Gibsea 84 here in Corfu but sailing across the world isn't part of my plan. Great to get an insight into sailing NZ.

[@SailingPivo]

@@kathyirwin awesome! The Marlborough Sounds would definitely be a unique place to charter, though the Bay of Islands is definitely the more popular place to go. Not as windy anchorages and warmer. But busier! Does your son live here then?

[@kathyirwin]

@@SailingPivo It looks like you're guaranteed loads of wind in the Marlborough Sounds. Yes he's been there three years and I haven't seen him in all that time. He's coming to Corfu in September. I can't wait.

Swimming pool water is better than Heineken

[@SailingPivo]

Lol. Heineken was Captain Marks beer of choice. I never understood it.

[@nevillebroadbent1601]

Great to see you back on a yacht , one of your happy places. Look forward to your future adventures

[@SailingPivo]

Indeed, being on a sailboat is definitely one of my happy places!!!! Actually....I have a wee adventure next week that will take me farther than I've ever gone!!!

[@stelladavies1647]

@@SailingPivo You had such kind words for me last year. My mother and father were diagnosed with breast cancer and brain tumor within 3 weeks of each other. My mother is having treatment for breast cancer. They reckon my father's brain tumor had been there a few years. So his is watch, wait and see. You were v kind. Thanks again x

[@SailingPivo]

@@stelladavies1647 aww, well I’m glad my words could help a bit. Kindness in these times means heaps. I’m assuming your dads tumor is benign? I have a dear friend fighting breast cancer right now, and I’ve been trying to help by hating pink ribbon breakfasts. She’s been so open about the experience and I recently learned that the recovery from chemo is almost worse than the treatment as the pills need to be take for years and continue to ravage your body. I had no idea! My heart goes out to your family. ❤️❤️❤️

10:32 the first country to allow women to vote in 1983? lol I had to replay that three times to make sure that I heard that right. I think you meant 1893 How progressive! The 80’s were a trip, man 😎

[@SailingPivo]

Yah, saw that after publishing. Oops! But yea, very progressive in some ways, not in others of course. I hope you enjoyed the episode! This was one of my favourites to make!

[@lillyrose3545]

@@SailingPivo yeah, this is one of your best. I learned so much!

[@jyzilvz]

Too add to those devastating stats on NZ issues there is also the highest rate of male youth suicide. But just to make it the tiniest better, we also have the highest rate of reporting these issues. That's how we have the highest numbers.

[@SailingPivo]

Indeed, these stats were a bit of an eye opener when I arrived. Americans definitely put New Zealand on a pedestal. That said, I think the respect for NZ is still well deserved. Kiwis are amazing people. ❤️

[@robertpaulin7175]

Great review of the Sounds. Can be windy but the cruising guide is full of great anchoring info. Do you have D’Urville and Tasman bay on your list of destinations?

[@SailingPivo]

Indeed, I had thought to link the Central New Zealand cruising guide, and then it completely slipped my mind until I saw your comment here!!! Do you recommend those destinations? They have not been on my radar so far.

[@robertpaulin7175]

@@SailingPivo D’Urville including Greville Harbour and Port Hardy are definitely worth a look, both offer very sheltered anchorages and some moorings. Abel Tasman is golden sands and excellent weather. Definitely a must do when considering the top of the South Island.

[@SailingPivo]

Well, the goal is to get to the South Island again next summer. Awww, and Stewart Island would be epic! Are you based in New Zealand then?

[@robertpaulin7175]

@@SailingPivo yes. I have a Launch in Mana Marina. Go to Abel Tasman most Christmas holidays. Have also done Fiordland and Stewart Island. South end of Stewart Island is great. Port Pegasus and Easy Harbour are spectacular. Gog and or MaGog have to be climbed.

[@dominictarrsailing]

I found the mistakes you left in to see if we would spot it "grant women the vote in 1983?" you mean 1893... also you thought no one would notice if you used some footage of hiking on kawau island... but I did ;) also wally/wando standing on the beach!

[@dominictarrsailing]

Btw, abortion was "decriminalized" in 1978, so you in practice you could get an abortion. The change in 2020 was to make it *definitely* legal, not because of an exception in the crimes act that made it not a crime in some circumstances.

[@SailingPivo]

Yah… oops on the date. What bit you talking about with Kawau? I’m pretty sure all the footage aligns with the area I’m talking about….?! 😁

@@SailingPivo I'm an American expat in Oaxaca, Mexico, almost 76. I left the States in 2007 to trek the mountains of the world. In 2011 I bought a bike while in China and have now cycled a large amount of the world. I was in Oaxaca when covid hit. It's now a home base. I spend my time taking care of abandoned and feral dogs in the hills outside of the city.

[@SailingPivo]

That's awesome! I love how this channel brings together fellow adventurous souls! you sound a bit like Conor's dad....he's super into biking. Biked across the US, Europe, NZ. What's the next destination?

[@markbrown2749]

@@SailingPivo During covid I started taking care of lots of dogs in the hills. The need was so great that I found myself going up every day. In short order it was consuming my life and wearing me out emotionally, so I started a project called "The Dogs of Monte Albán" and solicited volunteers. I no longer have to go up every day, but it still consumes my life. We provide sterilization, medical attention, and homes when possible to a shifting population of 20 to 30 dogs. The size of the project now exceeds the number of volunteers available; consequently, I'm still forced to do a lot of the work. I know where my next trip will be, but I can't leave till the project is on a more solid footing. I also ended up with 3 cats and an untold number of neighborhood dogs. How I got myself in this pickle is a mystery.

[@CuriousHumbleMarie]

@@markbrown2749 Wow Mark... you are a wonderful human being. I recently watched a sailing couple make a stop at Mindelo, Cape Verde and I was in tears seeing all the poor street dogs there. Unfortunately, this is a heartbreaking reality across the world. *Thank you* for all the hard work you do caring for the unloved ones in Oaxaca. 🙏

[@sydneylover6563]

You know at the turn of the eighteenth century there were lucky to be 100,000 maori in NZ, so the idea the maori have a story for every nook and cranny in NZ is nonsense it's a modern adaptation to give the maori some sense of mystique and NZ tourism some dollars...moreover the maori were not the original people of NZ and have only inhabited the land for approx 600 yrs...

Marlborough is pronounced the same as it is in the UK in New Zealand. It is not pronounced "Marlboro" which is just bizarre.
