[@davidbamford4721]

Thanks for identifying the various fish.

[@edmundbarrett-lennard6640]

Wow Phoebe climbing the rocky hill with bare feet! That’s hard core!

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

That’s certainly a good way to describe her 😬

[@pennymcaninch2293]

Great episode. Thank you from British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Stoked you like it! Thanks for letting us know. Cheers! Josh

[@patraic5241]

Run a braded chord from the low corner of your solar panel to the deck. Put a five gallon or equivalent size bucket there. Every time it rains you will collect more water than the bucket can hold. You can do that off the bimini too at it's low points. Fair winds.

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Awesome! I’ve got just the spot in mind for this trick 😁

[@cameronbest6380]

Love the music and your way you show a great footage. We'll done

[@davidbamford4721]

That looks like a bloody good genset!

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

And it was almost free!

[@jeffmorton9220]

Enjoyed this video! The selection of accompanying music was wonderful! It seemed to sync with my biorhythms or something like that! You guys have great taste!

[@daneschuck]

I just love the music that you pick to play in your videos. Your creating is very entertaining

[@andrewr171]

I love your channel!!!! Loved the goat and sheep imitations!!! Excuse me but Phoebe... you're a stunner!!!! Thank you for sharing and very Happy New Year!!!!!

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Give the imitations a go it’s so much fun! Even better in public places haha Couldn’t agree more about the beautiful woman Phoebe, radiant inside and out. Best wishes to you mate. Cheers, Josh

[@delaray7]

You have something special here. Keep them coming. Great and very relaxing watch. Thank you.

[@sarap1167]

Phoebe love your confidence. My favourite thing about sailing and having no one around.

[@TheZoePath]

Great choice of intro song! Very funky and fun!

[@johnmagnan759]

How in the heck have you ever heard of Hot Chocolate and came up with that tune? Y'all are babies LOL. Love it!

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

We are well accustomed with Hot Chocolate John! We had this track on vinyl in our first home together in Byron Bay. We had two turn tables and a huge record collection of a very good friend of ours. We would play vinyl any time we were home and that’s where we both learnt to mix together. Glad you’re enjoying the videos mate! Josh

[@torreym]

Love that intro track! Great video you guys!

[@russellneville7145]

Hay guys, merry Christmas & all the best for the new year. I still enjoy your content. The sailing, the bush walks, the lot. I enjoy it because you are sailing on the same coast that I would love to explore in our own yacht one day. & I like to see it through the eyes of an awesome loved up positive young couple with a can do attatude. So please keep up the good work & I'll look forward to seeing you guys next year. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿

That intro was next level 🔥

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Cheers mate!

[@beigenomadscaravangroup8171]

Hi guys, noticed you’re still not filling your head sale as I am not also on my 26 footer. Try running a line from the cockpit along a series of pulleys to your bow and secure it to the top hank of Your headsail. I find it safer to have the option of pulling the head down from the cockpit. let me know if you need more information. Hope this helps.

[@RNVOS]

Going to watch you guys ❤from 🇨🇦

[@TheMercys]

I love that we feel the same we have definitely found the full meaning of life being out on the water 🙌🏼 Thanks so much for sharing your adventures ✌🏼

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Couldn’t agree more! It’s awesome to connect with people who have similar beliefs. Thanks for reaching out! Josh

[@TheAtma50]

Great job guys ... Stay Safe & Fair Winds!! ☘

[@SailingLearningByDoing]

New kids on the dock watching a few kids on the rock(baaaa). cool bananas.

[@bubbleobill267]

When your squidding have two rods ready to go, get the first squid on and keep him off the back of the boat. His lil friends will come in to see what’s happening then you can catch them on the second setup.

[@waynocook53]

Wonderful family 🤙

Graet music🤙👏

Thank you so much! Same to you :) - Phoebe

[@bryanbadger6841]

Yep you've done it again. Delivered another great episode. Oh yes, any chance that you'll open up a "Fans Only" page? Apparently it makes editing easier. Asking for a friend. Many thanks for sharing your adventures. Btw I know nothing about "Fans Only ". I'm just the messenger. Atb from across the ditch.

[@michaelgonzalez8863]

Beautiful

[@deerfootnz]

Where are you guys for the cyclone season?

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Northern Rivers of NSW for this cyclone season :)

[@JacksonsGaming71]

Been watching y'all since your 1st episode an just want to say excellent job an cant wait for each episode every week , take care an happy holidays

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Thank you so much, Tim! A lot of time goes into making them, especially in the early stages of learning about editing. It means a lot to us that people look forward to them! Happy new year 😄 Phoebe

[@VincentConnolly-y6t]

[@ceschias3733]

Magical indeed, gorgeous 25 yr old mamasita. Pointer, for ease of snorkeling, put some weights on your waiste to stabilize yourself underwater. They say sailing is 70% shit and 30% incredible, but being 1% with Fibie your in heaven making it all worth it, ALL. Love from Antigua Guatemala, OsoYolo.

[@nautichunt84]

How did you guys go with that storm band and where are you in real time?

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

In real time we’re back in the Northern Rivers, house sitting over summer. Working hard to get the videos out so we’re up to date once we start cruising again in a couple months 😄 Currently safe and sound from Jasper and surrounding storm systems. Happy new year - Phoebe

[@nautichunt84]

@@Thenewkidsonthedock northern Rivers NSW? May see you out and about if you are heading back north, we are hanging around Bundaberg/ Hervey bay till summer is over

[@bigbarracreekaussie3449]

The goats were placed all along the coastal islands, think about it back in the day , fresh meat , no butcher shops etc , same with pigs, most boats carried a rifle, just the way it was and still is. Apologies to anyone offended , but is the reality , and modern history of this coastline..

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

No this would have made perfect sense back then! Not much regard for the long term repercussions on the native flora and fauna. But at least in the meantime they make for some pretty entertaining interactions 😂 - Phoebe

[@bigbarracreekaussie3449]

You guys live your dream , magical for an older mate like me, spent some of the best years off my life on that coastline . 38 foot Wharram , built from drawings ,on the Atherton Tableland early eighties . Ohh the memories, listen go for it because there is nowhere on this planet can compare, NOWHERE. Look forward to seeing more of your adventures .

[@daveamies5031]

What do you plan on doing with the channel name? I mean you're not really the new kids on the dock anymore, you're nearly old hands at this whole cruising thing 👍 great vid as always 👍

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Hey Dave, thanks for the comment, it’s a great question! We will forever consider ourselves to be ‘the kids’ as our outlook on life and it’s opportunities makes us feel like the world is one big playground. We will forever be learning and although one day we won’t be ‘new’ anymore we have decided to stick with our roots and the name because it so accurately conveys our youthful passion and zest for this exciting fulfilling lifestyle we have chosen. Cheers mate! Josh

[@daveamies5031]

@@ThenewkidsonthedockGreat answer, didn't expect that 👍I am loving your channel keep being awesome 👍

[@dannynoy8967]

I do like your videos though

[@kelvinleitch413]

Good luck trying to commercialise your adventure. KZbin is pretty crowded with this kind of content

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Thanks for watching, Kelvin 😊 How awesome that there’s so many options for viewers at the moment! Something for everyone. Happy new year - Phoebe

[@toomaniumans]

Hi do you patreon?

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Hey mate, we don’t have a patreon set up. It is something we are hoping to get going this year if there are enough people interested.

[@dannynoy8967]

Those fish aren’t sweetlip 😂 they’re mowong otherwise known as mother in laws. Named like that because you would only feed them to your mother in law 😂

[@nhr97]

What you say is correct but they are also known as Painted Sweetlip. There are Several species of Sweetlip, Grassy, red throat and Spangled just to name a few.

[@tracyraley4003]

I think you should interact with your audience more.😊

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Hi Tracy nice to meet you, thanks for your comment. It sparked out interest and we would like to know what more interaction looks like for you? Cheers, Josh

[@bobgilbert8743]

Not For Me

[@Thenewkidsonthedock]

Thanks for watching, Bob 😄 There’s heaps of awesome sailing channels out there, we hope you find one you enjoy. Happy new year - Phoebe

[@bruce8554]

There is no substitute for verve and unabridged greenhorn-passion on this path of self-discovery-not to mention the good choice of music... could have sworn there was some jj Cale gracing the way, and that never hurts (considering your audience), of course, Mama don't allow no guitar playing aroun' there... When you eventually get the cat, I'd vote to name her "Verve": /vəːv/ noun vigour and spirit or enthusiasm. "Kollo sings with supreme verve and flexibility"
