UNEXPECTED Boarding at Sea: Boat Life Extended Episode

[@TeuluTribe]

As you have been loving the slightly longer vids recently, we decided to extend this one a bit. Hopefully it can make you feel like you are right on board with us. Whats been your fave bit about our Panama series so far?

[@huntersteven]

I love the longer videos. I can't get enough of your adventure.

[@davidkettell1073]

you Becca. I cannot think of a nicer couple to sail around the world with.

[@vokeswaagin]

What you guys did for that family in the last episode, truly brought tears to my eyes. The whole adventure has been lovely, but that has to be my favorite bit so far.

[@jamesadkins5786]

The sos prolly came from the ipad you have if it gets bumped the wrong way it will say it detected a crash and send out an sos

[@davidweary7342]

I wonder if the Panamanian Coast Guard made a visit to check you out and confirm you were legit and not drug runners. Drugs make their way north from central America and beyond for the U.S. SOS broadcast sounds like a good excuse. What do you think? At least he was polite and friendly.

[@paulcalvinpacana8185]

The reason both of you are becoming a popular channel is YOU, not us, not our opinions, not our comments, we will look at your videos because we like what we see, but do not let our biases influence you, do not let our comments guide or affect you, do not try to please us, just keep doing what you were doing from the beginning and we will keep watching you both.

[@katherinecarpenter3149]

This comment to a T - it makes me feel like my husband and I could actually make sailing a goal and not a pipe dream!

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

I love you kids! 50 minutes with you guys is a gift. Becka, please don't ever sacrifice yourself for clicks, like some women on other channels do. You're too precious for that. Safe travels. ❤

[@TeuluTribe]

Your support means the world to us! Thank you for watching 😊

[@roelofcoertze9453]

Yes I agree. It seems that every other sailing channel has to have a clickbait hot chick showing all kinds of skin. I really appreciate the authenticity of this channel.

[@markbuskens6070]

No need for all that,just keep it real as it happens.Beauty comes from within 😉

[@TheAtma50]

This is good advice ..... Natural beauty doesn't need to use "Click Bate" !!

[@smoothsailing7773]

Well done, enjoy your story. To whatever commenters say above....just remember, clicks are $$, and $$ keeps you going. Always follow your OWN game plan. If its to circumnavigate and share your experiences, it takes $$ people. Simple as that. Cheers and luck!

[@sweettony9359]

One thing ive noticed about full time sailors is that their heads are on an absolute swivel. They are constantly looking around: at the horizon, over the side, in front of the boat, at the sails, at their instruments, to port, to starboard, back to the horizon, etc. They are actually like animals on the savanna, constantly being aware of their surroundings. Beautiful, really, how they become part of the nature around them.

[@evinwhiteson4902]

Yes there is that. But just like that you hear every single noise you're boat and the sea makes. The second something is wrong or just different you are on it. You're also very aware of the moon and tides. It is a interesting , life. I am on my 34th year of mostly full time cruising.

[@jhonhayes3410]

This continues even when sleeping, you become so symbiotic with your mate, vessel and surroundings even the slightest change will bring you to alertness.

[@graemeday4195]

From the crazy dancing on the bow, to Zak needing a good comb, you two have really impressed me with the innocence, determination and honesty that you approach everything. You can really see the love in your eyes when you look at each other. This channel just keeps getting better. Well done you two x

[@Steven-Doc-Troxel]

You are a very handsome couple. I love Becca's childlike enthusiasm for things that bring you joy.

[@sandybinbedford5512]

These things happen to make just the best memories ever .

[@davcox100]

I’ve been fortunate to work none stop for 44 years and thoroughly enjoying most of that time. However I’d swap that in a heartbeat for what you two are doing. Maybe not for a continuous 44 years but certainly in my 20s and 30s. Then maybe have a break and do it all again in my mid 40s and 50s. You only live once and if you’re fortunate to be in a situation where you can live your dream, do it. Loving the extended posts, as you really bring us along with you. However, don’t put yourself under pressure to do this every week. If you’ve got the content and time to do it, that’s brilliant, if not , don’t stress about it. Just keep the wonderful content going when you can.👍

[@TeuluTribe]

Your words truly resonate with me. It's never too late to pursue your dreams and make the most of every opportunity that comes your way. We love putting out longer content but it is a lot more work to do so. Glad you're enjoying it😊

50+ minutes AND catching fish! Today is a good day.

[@TeuluTribe]

It sure was!

[@olemanjim1415]

Finding complete solitude, totally away from any civilization. That's a cruisers dream and you guys did it. Wow!!❤ I'm over the top happy for you, enjoy 😊

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Jim! It was sure in the absolute middle of nowhere!

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

Thank you. For the vodka anesthetic, get a plastic squeeze bottle with a narrow straw. Put the straw in the gill and administer the vodka from the squeeze bottle. You will use very little and the fish will expire quickly.

[@garrytownson7552]

I too am enjoying immensely the longer video, simply cause i don't want them to end. i love how you treat each other, the generosity of you both and how you treat people whom ever they are.

[@jacksmith8002]

At times I have watched dozens of sailing channels, yours is the only one I still watch religiously - Happy Monday to us all

[@widotspecial]

I don't care who you are, 7:50 is the view that every boater lives for all day every day. Gorgeous waves, shoreline in view, just stunning.

[@norman4991]

Love the way you are able to let the video speak for itself so often. Almost like I'm sailing on my own boat. Wonderful

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Thats a wharram Pahi 42 or larger and rather beautiful see Mark of Wilding sailing.. there may be a slightly higher performance version ...with narrower hulls James designed a couple for racers.. 😂 Mind you a Pahi can move sweetly in double figures with a cruising rig. The biggest wharram is the Pahi 63 it has two masts. Hanneka Boone James's partner captains Spirit of Gaia... You will likely find Wharrams miles from anywhere.. especially across the Pacific and Indian ocean... 🧙🏻‍♂️🇬🇧 So you will always get reminders of Plymouth and Cornwall.

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks for sharing this interesting information about the Wharram Pahi boats! We love what Mark has been doing. Wow we'll have to check out the 63 😊

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

@@TeuluTribe There's also the Wharram Islanders at 50 and 60ft they were developed to provide professionally built vessels for Transport and cruising.. so have more enclosed deck accommodation. See Sailing in the Sea of Japan.. they are more like larger Wharram Tiki's. So more space in the hulls and they don't have the up curved prows of the Pahi's. The ultimate wharram.would be built using inventwoods Metelwood based ply and timber and probably be covered in Basalt fiber rather than the old and problematic GRP stuff. Cork seadeck is more durable than teak lighter and softer on the feet ..it doesn't get hot and insulates ...but you're on the wrong side of the world to find that stuff. 😉 Safe sailing both of you.

So privileged to share the adventures through your eyes and experiences, so thank you for that ❤. Loved the extended version - what a great way to chill after another day in the UK. Absolutely love the sailing clips and having the camera moving with the swell is like ASMR for the soul. Seeing both your smiles and sense of achievement reaching C.Rica after these past weeks is the icing on the cake. Hope you're having THE best time over there. 🎉

I think for me was the friendliness of the folk you meet there! How lovely for you both! I am also fascinated at the difference in technology to when I used to do boating in the late seventies and into the early eighties with a motor cruiser! If you could show more of the equipment! for me that would be fascinating ok! 👍

Good to have good people board your boat. Keep up the Good.

You are so enjoyable to watch, love following your journey. I’m 50, have no interest in boats or sailing but have happily sat and watched while you both fix the engine problems and listened whilst you talk sailing chat I have no idea what it means.

[@petegraham1458]

I enjoy being able to follow along on your adventures, thanks for all the effort you two expend to record and edit it. The photo of the sunrise brought back wonderful memories for me on night watch sailing along as the loom of the sun before it breakers the horizon as you sit there alone with your thoughts and the family asleep below! Just perfect! That light is called a transit marker light they also come as triangle you keep one in front of the other .

Cruisers are like gamblers they usually only tell about the good times (winnings) very few will share the bad scary times,boring moments. Wondering how many people get into sailing after watching some of these videos. Definitely one of the better videos I’ve seen good job!

[@charonstyxferryman]

Quote, Cruisers are like gamblers they usually only tell about the good times (winnings) very few will share the bad scary times,boring moments." Why should they show boring stuff, and why do you think sailors has the time to film, when things goes South?

[@GeorgeHarn-e8s]

Hello, I just watched your videos about the water pump bearing and the people who helped you so much. I was very happy to see that you were able to get the internet for those people. Also I am wondering if you might be planning to try to accumulate more essential spare parts to keep on your boat. Ok I enjoy your videos a lot and will keep watching. Good luck. ciao. Geo

[@ollieitservices115]

Hi Guys, as always the highlight of my day when you have a new video! Not sure if you realise and not trying to be a know it all, but as a fellow yacht sailor who has spent a lot of time in light winds if your motoring the wind tends to move as if you were going into it. This can greatly reduce the already low power you get out of your sails and to see you playing the mainsheet while motoring, you probably didn't actually get any improvement to your speed but may have increased the fuel usage slightly due to the sails being pushed against by the apparent wind. I've found that especially over long low wind journeys (sometimes it's been up to a week becalmed) leaving the sails down and just motoring (which I personally hate - it is a sailboat after all!!!) it's been much more comfortable, less chance of damage to sails from sudden wind gusts as the wind changes and sometimes significantly noticeable lower fuel usage (over a week trip we got nearly 6 hours more than the previous best engine time for the fuel we had on board in ocean offshore swells). Keep being well and have a terrific time and thank you for your videos!

[@stuartmould6363]

Hey Becka & Zach loving the extended episode, loving every minute and like I said can’t wait until the next one, take care both safe sailing. ❤

Onboard Lifestyle have a great series of videos of their trip from Mexico down to Costa Rico (fyi they are a cat with a crew of 3). They are actually now through the Panama Canal and in San Blas. But their videos are behind real time and you should watch them in reverse order. The one out in the last few days is from a small bay in Costa Rico. You should watch all their videos so you can see the interesting spots that they have visited. Lots of great tips and great people. Very cautious and competent sailors.

Really enjoying your adventures! A suggestion . . . A light wind foresail, such as an asymetrical spinnaker or drifter makes a huge difference when the wind drops. Used ones aren't expensive. Question . . . How does tacking or gybing work with the double headstays? Does the genoa get hung up between them?
