[@benjaminspencer6507]

I could care less about the notification pictures, so called click bait! As long as I know there is a new video!! As a retired person of 71, You Tube is about all I have left to enjoy! THANKS and keep them coming!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Good point!

[@HazelHammond1505]

what a beautiful color of blues on the crabs. beautiful sunset. ya never know what can happen at a grocery store.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Crazy things can happen!

[@mikeprodanov6765]

Bill and Grace... I know I will never have a chance to visit the places you are visiting now.... Thank you so much for sharing and humanizing the areas you are in now.... Look forward to more of your experiences....

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

[@cchambard]

Living Vicariously! Thank You

[@lillis887]

❤❤🥰😍Those sunsets!!😍🥰❤️❤️

[@nick.caffrey]

10:00 Brilliant and atmospheric videography. Good music too... Interesting to see people playing the spoons, we do that in Ireland as well. You have a cinematographer's eye, Grace.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Thanks!

[@js7127]

My goodness the 10:40 sunset stunning along with the crabs. Not taking anything away from National Geographic but the proliferation of quality digital filming gear has made that once in a lifetime shot much more common. Wish the world could take and use a page from these beautiful peoples lives. Times might be a little bit better.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Very true! We are filming 4k at 60fps, can pretty easily extract high quality stills from our video footage :)

[@lesliearnison9547]

Nice adventure! Loved the creatures big and small! Liked the music and singing with locals

[@Ghost_Recon_Actual]

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Thanks Marisa!

[@GoneSailingCA]

good fun - thanks

[@brucerhodes8197]

Feeding sharks right from shore, how much fun was that! Those pearls were stunning, I just love these small islands and the locals that figure out a way to make a living with so little to work with, just amazing!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johnparker7945]

Magic!

[@chiefcliff]

Fun times.

[@loisphillips5826]

Wow. Another fabulous video. Loved the sound of the palm trees, the water and of course your beautiful choice of music. Such a great experience meeting the locals. Sure looked like fun. Thanks Bill and Grace for sharing.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@michelleb1248]

Beautiful island! Again, this video did not disappoint! Love your spontaneity and just going with the flow!

[@MaShcode]

When I gaze into the ocean I hear a chorus “please, don’t eat me” 😅 Looks like you found paradise. I hope the rest of us in the northern hemisphere come to our senses and put in the work assuring its continued survival.

[@kattnhatt]

really fun to watch. Thanks for sharing guys!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jorgegorina3039]

What an amazing experience!❤❤🙌🏼👍🏼

[@yvonnekneeshaw2784]

Amazing editing & scenery. Sunsets 😊lovely to see how others live 🇨🇦❤️

[@ejs6010]

Beautiful video and story telling. You are enjoying life1

[@californiakayaker]

That is an amazing atoll. I could see some land, a little settlement, I know there must be coral beaches. Some plantations, Coconut ? Palm, or whatever ? An airport with a 2,800 ft runway ... Built on a very narrow piece of carral land . If there were buildings I couldn't see them. It was foggy. These mysterious atolls would be amazing to visit.

[@catothecensor]

Such happy people in those remote islands!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Totally!

[@patrickloring6914]

Loved it!

[@Petra-R]

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

We wish :) !

[@K_R_W]

Nice to see some smiles, finally. By he time this video was published you may already be in he water.

[@PEI_Guy]

[@olemanjim1415]

Just a beautiful island❤. I keep getting an Azores vibe from these islands, do you feel that? You both look wonderfull and healthy, is it the fresh tropical fruit? Good clean living baby! Ha😂. Be well my friends!!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

The marquesas def had an azore's vibe. LIke a tropical version!

[@shannonlowe2412]

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Our pleasure!

[@nancyaubel4207]

Thank you!

[@tcoker6616]

If there are two boats in the water close to each other, it’s a race!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

For sure!

[@jenniferdavis8088]

Hit the like button!!!

[@scyz2807]

What fun! I wish I knew some French so I could have picked up on some of the conversations. And, boy, those pearls were something else! Now those are "cultured" pearls, correct? Meaning that they place an irritant into the shell which the oyster turns into a pearl.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

that is correct! Believe the irritant is coral pieces

[@KennyP88]

Phun, phun. Bill, can’t you bolt on some metal to that skeg to protect the prop?

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

It’s a curved surface 🤷🏻. Not sure what the solution is

[@karlfair]

Looks like a fun party. They do eat the oysters after harvesting the pearls?

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Don’t think the meat is tasty

[@joeldelamirande5792]

I’ve seen a way that cultivate the pearls and that keep them alive

[@raybedell883]

Hi guys. How'd you break the "Skeg" off your outboard? That's a Problem. I think they are cast aluminum. Better plan for a new one. Those and prop guards and those planing fins? are pretty cool.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

We had a hydro shield on the bottom and we went sideways on a beach landing which generated significant side loading

[@rocket262626]

Were you able to buy a few pearls? Great video! 💖💖

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

unfortunately no! all were spoken for

[@tcoker6616]

Was that a Moray?

[@davecummings6170]

Recording a track on your iPhone is the modern day equivalent of leaving a trail of breadcrumbs, which, of course would be hard to do in the water. Also, using a blowtorch to light a fire is probably not approved by the Boy Scouts.

[@yesbigfootyes6902]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[@tbirdracefan]

Have you considered something like the Megaware Skeg Guard to repair your skeg? Looks like about a 100 dollar fix to me.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Hmm will have to look that one uo

[@Greg-pt7ur]

Would it work to bolt on a piece of aluminum to your lower unit? Or even a piece of steel temporarily?

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

It’s a curved surface so a challenge to bolt theu

[@joeldelamirande5792]

Would it be possible to pdf picture of the sunset at 10.40 in this video

[@thomasthornton5737]

😀😀👍👍👍👍❤❤

[@feanor3876]

It's like watching national geographic when the sh9ws were about nature and quality footage. David Attenborough(spelling) would be proud of this.

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

Aww thanks!!

[@loekiebusink8147]

Why make so much noise with you’re dinges in such a beautiful and quiet place. It is disturbing to see and I think its is not appropriate to the envirement.

[@brucerhodes8197]

I get what you are saying about the environment, but for sailors a dingy is their car, it's how they get around. I'm not sure what else you'd expect they do, swim to shore? They aren't just blasting around joy riding, the dingy is there to serve a useful purpose, without it, they sure wouldn't be able to give us so much beautiful content. I'd also point out, that the locals who live in that environment, use outboards on their fishing boats.

[@arqcm]

What am I doing in NJ?? buaaahhhhh!!!!

[@CalicoSkiesSailing]

lol 😝
