We CROSSED the BAY OF BISCAY six months after buying a sailing boat

[@itwithcarlos]

One the best things of your videos are Becka's face when talking about accomplishment, happiness and excitement. Congratulations guys!

[@TeuluTribe]

Haha i am pretty transparent 😅

[@peterdobson1287]

[@hartfischer5509]

Wow, you are so knowledgeable, navigating in the night, sailing across open ocean. Amazing. You are great

[@MrDazP1adv3ntures]

Absolutely fantastic stuff to watch and to get an insight into life on the open sea.👋

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed us crossing the bay

[@sumobear2031]

You have well and truely torn up the L plates. You must be so proud of yourselves. wishing you both,Fair winds and calm sea's

[@TeuluTribe]

Cheers 😁 We are definitely feeling more confident in the boat and ourselves now!

[@carolgrant9231]

Awesome guys… hubby and I love watching you both, great entertainment for a couple;e of pensioners , we’re hooked !!!

[@paulstephens5229]

I know I am only viewing your journey but I am really so proud of the two of you, who would have thought this was only just your first proper adventure.

[@TeuluTribe]

Aw Paul, we are so glad you can be here with us, along for the crazy ride 😊

[@Jon2503]

Your posts have become an addiction to watch for myself partner and daughter. You only live once so enjoy every minute of your voyages and explore everything you can. Can you give a big shout out to John, Tiff and our daughter Daisy on your next post please. She’s only 5 and loves your stories. Stay safe guys and good luck. ⛵️⛵️😀

[@TeuluTribe]

Hi John, Tiff and Daisy 😊 Thank you for your kind words, this has got to be one of the sweetest comments we’ve had. If you head over to our instagram (@teulutribe) we’ll post a video on our story later today 😃

[@Jon2503]

Ahh, thanks guys! Daisy, is literally addicted to your channel. We’ve all loved watching you progress throughout your journey and only wish for more adventures to come! Main thing is..stay safe whatever way/direction you go. We’re with you both! Love you guys!!🙏🙏

[@WharfRat4]

Well done you two! Crossing Biscay is quite an accomplishment and entering a foreign port in the dark is also quite a challenge. Great to see your confidence and ability growing with each episode.

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks! Its definitely growing 😊

[@petemartin1526]

its amazing to see how far you've come in a short space of time? Your journey has started. Good luck and fair winds.

[@TeuluTribe]

We still can’t believe it ourselves! Thanks Pete 😁

[@Darrenj195]

So cool going back to this newbie video. Channel 16 is English😊. How cool.

[@HG23456]

I did Biscayne a few months ago as well with my brother……first crossing for us as well.. amazing feeling right ? Hats off for you guys ….nice editing and well done 👏

[@trescocos]

Hey bud that broken plastic cone on your dinghy outboard is primarily a spacer. The thrust of the prop shoves it forward on the the shaft when running. So all you need to do is cut a piece of pvc pipe, or stack on some ss washers, to snug up the space between the rear of prop and the cotter pin. This would be safer than trusting your glue on rotten plastic! The only time there is force put on the pin is in reverse so as long as you dont have any slop you will be good to go! PS enjoying your show!

[@kjslavin]

You have quickly become one of my favourite sailing channels. ⛵️ The detail of the sailing is better than most other channels. I love watching your enthusiasm and frustration and overcoming fears to accomplish long held dreams. So many firsts in such a short time. We bought our own yacht only a week ago. A Carter 30. Owning my own boat has been a dream since I was 17. I am now 64. We have many firsts ahead of us, and you both are such an inspiration.

[@TeuluTribe]

Aw Kerry, we are so happy you can be here, living through it with us 😊 Congrats on your boat, thats incredibly exciting. Hopefully see you on the water one day!

[@PeterGrimes59]

well done Kerry! Like you, I have a dream in my early 20's that one day I wud own my own yacht. Bought an RL34 5 yrs ago, then upgraded 2 yrs ago to a Catalina C380 and have been fulltime liveaboard cruisers since.

[@johnbergquist8510]

All I can say is bravo congrats you had me smiling this whole video you are so excited it made me grin and smile for you.cheers !!!!

[@TeuluTribe]

Cheers John, glad we could make you smile so much 😁

[@geemee248]

Hey Becka & Zak, what an achievement. You have gone from zero to blooming hero in next to no time! A boost to you confidence born out of your dedication, hard work, passion … & guts; you are really on the way to explore the world. As you say - you ‘bloody did it’!! We are now hooked in following your adventure. Love from Ella’s parents

[@TeuluTribe]

Hey guys, thank you so much for your kind words. It’s so nice to hear from you two! We’ve definitely come a long way since we last met. Hopefully we will see you two on the water again at some point 😊

Your channel is my absolute favourite! Thank you so much for taking us along; it's a real pleasure watching you two :)

[@TeuluTribe]

Thank you so much Taylor, we both work really hard on our content 😊

[@TheSmartodd]

You've grown so much as sailors in such a short period of time - great to hear your confidence so high :0)

[@TeuluTribe]

Thank you 😊 We are feeling more confident than ever!

[@ianelwell8000]

Well done guys, you’re an inspiration to many people, your ‘can do attitude ‘ shines through and the raw emotion just tops it off! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us all

[@TeuluTribe]

Aw, thanks Ian! We appreciate you 😊

[@pieterdijkhuizen]

You guys are single handed keeping my inspiration alive!!!

[@beckylarsson6697]

First time I stumbled across your channel, I thorougly enjoyed it. I could feel the excitement! My husband and I learned to sail and bought a 23ft practise boat this summer. Planning to leave sweden in a few years 🤞

[@TeuluTribe]

Thank you Becky! Hopefully we will see you out on the water at some point 😊

[@simongear3940]

Another great achievement. Well done. You are learning all the time, and great to hear you talking about getting to know what Teulu likes and doesn’t. You should be very proud. Thanks as always

[@TeuluTribe]

Cheers Simon! 😊

[@joelbrown4110]

Great video. It looked like you ran water into your tank filler directly from the water source. Would highly recommend you buy/build an inline water carbon filter, at a minimum, and get in the habit of using it. The first time you don't and get some nasty water in the tank, you will regret it. Never trust the source when the filter system is cheap and easy to build. If you put a valve on it, you get added convenience of controlling the flow at the filler end. Cheers.

[@ianelwell8000]

Good advice!

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Joel, we’ll have a look into that 😊 We current have a filter on our drinking water tap.

[@nesrodrigues9811]

fantastic work Guys! Well done... onwards with the journey. keep positing these videos... its a great inspiration

[@TeuluTribe]

Cheers Nes, as long as we have internet we will 😊

[@joeswinny7686]

I came here after seeing you two on Mads channel and I'm very pleased I did. Congrats on the crossing, no mean feat, I'm impressed and look forward to following your journey. All the best to you both.

[@TeuluTribe]

Mads and Ava are so lovely- we feel very grateful we got to sail with them 😊 Thanks for hopping over and seeing what we are about!

[@damianhall4554]

[@TeuluTribe]

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks so much!

[@stevewoody63]

I am so proud of you both, I know you are learning so much more off cam but I wish that if I was your age I took up sailing and had the guts and passion that you have and where it may have possibly taken me. Stay safe you two and fair sees. xx

Wonderful episode. Packed full of accomplishments and reaching new personal best. The music that you chose was very nice. I loved the way you closed this video. You two touch so many people in producing and sharing your videos. Im just one soul out here in the vast KZbin community. But your videos have the potential to make a difference in a person's daily life and that is fairly powerful when you stop to think about it.

[@TeuluTribe]

Thank you for your kind words David, Becka works incredible hard to edit each episode 😊

[@julesx2171]

You did it!!! You bloody did it!!!

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Andy!

[@SBoots29]

I am awestruck as to how much one needs to know to sail a vessel. I will put it a different way, Sail a vessel well. Both of you have achieved that and a dream that so many others cannot do and thank you. Your journey only just begun and there will be more things thrown at you for the first time. Your attitudes and experience and ability to work together will prevail. Looking forward to adventures in Spain. Cheers

[@TeuluTribe]

Thats such a lovely comment, thanks Stephan, it sure is a journey- one with many ups and down but beautiful nonetheless 😊

[@rjgillens2637]

Hey guys, love your experience on camera, it is truly a great feeling/ sense of achievement to cross big bays or oceans. My big tip, listen to advise (even if you ignore it) and keep up your sleep. Good luck

[@TeuluTribe]

Hey Jonathan, thanks for watching and for the advise 😊

[@johncooper5293]

Great achievement getting in to port safely at night. Really impressed with the sailing capabilities of the ketch. Getting to warmer seas always good.

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks John. Teulu loves some down wind sailing 😍

[@johndavidson6867]

Well done "Teulu Tribe" , good planning and sticking mostly to it payed off big time. Now to plan out the rest of your sail journey may it go as well.

[@jameshoward9275]

Hey Hey Becka & Zak, If anyone could sail around the world... it is you two. In flying, its dangerous to get behind the processes required; you guys seem will ahead of sailing. Good work....Thanks

[@TeuluTribe]

Hey James, thanks you 😊 We will be taking it one step at a time!

[@2299jsimon]

Well done... you had a fairly good window.

[@ianscott3180]

Well done guys, the first of many passages I am sure. I have done Biscay a couple of times, the first on a Contessa 26 with no GPS, radar, auto helm to name a few things. A long time ago, I would not do that now. At seventy and ending my sailing days you brought back memories of that first Bicay and the scense of achievment. Bon Voyage. 🙃Oops rogue wave.

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Ian, it sounds like your first crossing was a bit different from ours 😅 I bet you’ve got some good story’s to tell!

[@trailingarm63]

Great film. Beautiful journey. Enjoyed Tommy Cooper trying to make a cup of tea!

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks 😊 It definitely wasn’t my finest moment haha.

[@andyherbert1267]

If you are going downwind in a ketch with a following swell take the mizzen down it blankets the mainsail and tries to push the stern round, its more efficient without it !

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks for the advice Andy, we’ll definitely try this!

[@Ajojets]

Well done to you both, I remember the feeling well when I did my first solo away flight in a Cessna, just like you I just couldn’t believe it, best feeling eve. You should be so proud the both of you.

[@TeuluTribe]

It really is a surreal and incredible feeling! Thanks Andy 😊

[@chrischart]

class job, bravo 👏

[@ruairitiernan8727]

This was awesome congrats

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Ruairi!

[@rogerdarbyshire5664]

Outstanding, especially the last leg, approaching a strange lee shore at night, . Thst'd give anyone some nerves, however experienced you are. Also, excellent call on leaving when you did, big systems piling into the bay leave nasty sea states for ages afterwards. It's all to do with some very weird counter currents you get along the continental shelf drop-off. Crossing that area as quickly as possible is a very good thing, as it's definitely a Place Where Bad Things Happen. All the best ...

[@TeuluTribe]

Thanks Roger- yes, we can definitely see that!

[@SaYeager]

Good Job your doing a great job.

[@TeuluTribe]
