Missed you guys so much, I had to watch this episode 5 times in a row just to get my Zatara fix on. Thanks for doing what you guys do and keeping the dream alive in so many. I know I will never be able to cut ties and go sailing so I am very happy to see someone who has been able to follow their dreams and do it very successfully.
Hello, welcome, back so glad to see the Z Crew is having a great time. I often check on a friend's FB to get a glimpse of the Z Crew. 🙂 Renee, It is wonderful to see your videos again. Keath, you are a true red-blooded American proud of you. The children are growing up so fast, but O! boy, what an awesome education they are learning and experiencing. May the LORD keep HIS Hand on all of you. Praying for you every day,
Hey, Renee! You outdid yourself with the colour and editing of the first part. It's mesmerising. Especially the second the camera is just above water and you can see how it reflects all sorts of blues and greens in the wake! And, the music. Wow!
So glad you're back - we've missed you! Also glad to know Anna is doing well. Keith, you're a big softie, but that's how us Dads are with our daughters. As always, thanks for sharing your adventure!
I'm just obsessed with Z crew and their fun packed videos.Renee u r awesome u give us the excellent experience of sailing and viewing beauties of oceans at the comfort of our homes . It's a bliss for sure and u guys r living a "most wanted life style".Renee I love u and thnx for the beautiful work u r doing dear.
Miss y'all!! Glad y'all got a break... An yes Keith your a fabulous Roving Reporter!! More of it wud be eye opening an enlightening... Glad y'all are back!! Fare winds an following sea's ✌🏻💗😊❣️
Superb photography guys - thank you! the missus was listening but made her a little sad as our grandkids are just outside of Freo and we miss them bigtime so your comments re Anna hit home. Love your attitude to life and humanity. Have fun now it's 2022..
These videos get better and better every time I watch them. I have seen every video from the begging. The photography, music and editing is better than most professional producers. Renee good job. I am hooked. I always look for the next video.
So happy to see you guy’s back and glad you enjoyed your time off. Looking forward to see what all the family has encountered. Renee great editing and looking forward to the next video. Love you all❤️❤️
Missed your videos. I’m a Texan and that means something born and raised! If you back here and have nothing better to do, I live in Beach City. Y’all are always welcome by my campfire!
So happy to hear you enjoyed your break from TH-cam.but really happy that you're back for those of us who live are sailing life virtually through your channel. Missed you.
Seeing you guys this morning made my day. Renee, you captured the beauty of such a special place - great job. And Keith, you are such a natural in front of the camera - born to do it. Love it! May your family be safe and joyful. 😘 Granny
Yay! a Zatara video! I've missed you guys! And what a beautiful video it is too! Either y'all are filming with a sharper cam or my monitor got new video drivers - I mean it is really beautiful on my screen. Thanks!
Welcome Back! 🤗 Hope you enjoyed your time and got some rest while you were away. Everybody needs to step back now and again. ⚘ From South Carolina, USA
Ho hum, my life is so boring these days and all your videos so full of AWESOME, living on the boat is oh so familiar and ingrained in my younger years! Yes, I have missed you!!! Happy to hear Anna is doing well & is planning to meet you all in Indonesia! If you ever want another rocking crew mate- let me know! In the mean time, "May the wind be in your favor!" ~Cindy (Boston, MA)
It’s great seeing you all again, great knowing everyone’s safe out there. It seem like it’s been six months since we saw the last video. We’ve been making a special night watching your videos. Ever since you left Texas, on the first boat. Please keep up all these great videos! Love you all Norm and Ann Shifferd, from Gulf Shores, Alabama. PS My son Hunter loves his Zatara hat. He wares it everywhere.
Welcome back! You folks were missed. Good to see Russell with you as well. Still hanging with the Kiwis? Awesome video. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us here at home. Congratulations to your daughters college achievements. No small feat! 👍😎👍💕
"We're too involved, I get too involved..." I hear you. Same for me when my son was Jack's age. I had force myself to work more like a CFI, dropping back, giving him plenty of room to pick up the ball and run with it. Half of good learning is letting him figure things out for himself. I'd tell him the desired end state, ask him to plan trips, hand him the resources (links, books, charts, etc.), then simply ask him simple questions. In your case that might be, "Do we have enough off-course deep-water clearance for sailing past these islands/shoals?" If he answers, "Yes," but you think more room is needed, just ask him to insert a waypoint another half a mile or three to the right/left of course. Similar to trying to thread your way through an island chain vs just blue water sailing around it, planning for time periods of favorable winds... It might help for you to write down a bullet list of all your planning considerations the next time you let him plan a trip, and when he's finished, hand it to him and ask him to double-check his own work against your list and various requirements. After a couple of times through, your revised bullet list will evolve into a good checklist that works for you, your boat, and your whole family. You can do this, Keith! It's a really good idea to have multiple FMC (fully mission-capable) members of your crew who can safely take over in case you fall ill.
Such stunning scenery. I enjoy this a lot. Reminds me of my trips where I take the good music like the Guns N Roses, Imagine Draongs or the Delta Parole and then enjoy the powerful feeling of the sea. ¡vamos!
I’ve been following sailing channels for about a year now because I’d really love to join the community myself. So glad I stumbled upon your channel. Seeing a family living on the ocean has helped me get my wife in on it to. Maybe there’s hope after all. Love the channel. Keep up the great work.
Good to see you guys back. Some really nice "arty" camera work there Rene. Makes the videos more interesting. I met you guys at the Meet and Greet at Guld Harbour last year and talked to Keith about buying my own boat. Well it's happened! Bought a 36 foot monohull in Tauranga. Having it lifted next month for a hull refurbish. And so it begins. Maybe I will see you guys out there. Though I think you guys will be a sailing season or two ahead of me!
Just watched our 50th episode. Love following y’all! We had a couple questions: 1. Jack and Lilly still an item? 2. We have Starlink satellite internet and love it. Y’all considering Starlink if they finally make it usable for boaters and RVers? 3. Ever had any shark scares? Thanks again for sharing your family story. Many blessings. 😁
Great footage and top notch video quality, not implying other videos are lower quality (edit) especially the beginning of the video the areal footage). Thank you for another great video! Take care!
So glad you guy’s had a well deserved break to recharge. Because this episode shows the passion and love for what you do, and do so well. I’m just gonna sit back with a glass of wine, or a beer, or both, and watch it a few more times.🍷🍺 Gosh I’ve really miss this amazing family.⛵️🐚🐠☀️
It's amazing how much better TH-cam is compared to the old Network Television. Thanks for extremely professional programming.
Renee, I just loved the camera work and drone footage on this Vlog. Your story telling just keeps getting better. Love Keith's Q & A sessions too.

I repeatedly exclaimed "Oh my gosh" with the scenery and accompanying music. Well done!! Thank you!!!
Thrilled my question regarding Anna was answered & love hearing she is thriving!
So glad you're back - we've missed you! Also glad to know Anna is doing well. Keith, you're a big softie, but that's how us Dads are with our daughters. As always, thanks for sharing your adventure!
Great that you guys are back "online", another fantastic production Renee 👍
Renee, your videography and editing skills are bordering on the superb; keep up the good work.
the Anna update was great ! Wow 4.0 gpa that's fantastic!
I think that she shows excellent self discipline, and is a great credit to her parentage!
I'm just obsessed with Z crew and their fun packed videos.Renee u r awesome u give us the excellent experience of sailing and viewing beauties of oceans at the comfort of our homes . It's a bliss for sure and u guys r living a "most wanted life style".Renee I love u and thnx for the beautiful work u r doing dear.
One question which always comes to my mind Didn't u had any encounter with whales and other such dangerous creatures in ocean???? Plzzzz reply
Amazing to hear about Anna. So mature. What a blessing.
Miss y'all!! Glad y'all got a break... An yes Keith your a fabulous Roving Reporter!! More of it wud be eye opening an enlightening... Glad y'all are back!! Fare winds an following sea's ✌🏻💗😊❣️
You guys are the best! Love your show. You guys are great parents also. I wish I could have had a dad like Keith. Keep up the good work!
I’m older than Keith but wish I had a father like him too. He’s great.
Love the street interviews!!! I hear people say "Germany and UK hates us" yet I travel there a lot and they love us ... keep it up!!!!
Superb photography guys - thank you! the missus was listening but made her a little sad as our grandkids are just outside of Freo and we miss them bigtime so your comments re Anna hit home. Love your attitude to life and humanity. Have fun now it's 2022..
You sure are living the life! And Renee, the camera work is awesome. That water level view of the dinghy with Z behind is what dreams are made of.
These videos get better and better every time I watch them. I have seen every video from the begging. The photography, music and editing is better than most professional producers. Renee good job. I am hooked. I always look for the next video.
Breathtaking footage !! Amazing !! thanks for the video !!
Hi Z folks ! the drone shots and editing was fantastic....loved it and rewatched it 3 times.
Welcome back! We missed you all but glad you had some time away to disconnect. I would love to do Australia-the ocean is incredible
So happy to see you guy’s back and glad you enjoyed your time off. Looking forward to see what all the family has encountered. Renee great editing and looking forward to the next video. Love you all❤️❤️
I have been waiting for this
MEEEE TOOOOO!
Renee, you continue to tell a wonderful story for all of us. I love when you add a bit of history lesson or geography.
Missed your videos. I’m a Texan and that means something born and raised! If you back here and have nothing better to do, I live in Beach City. Y’all are always welcome by my campfire!
So happy to hear you enjoyed your break from TH-cam.but really happy that you're back for those of us who live are sailing life virtually through your channel. Missed you.
It’s nice to see you and Keith hanging out together. Missed you guys, but glad you take breaks. 🥰

Right on the mark. You provide an amazing experience for me and I will follow forever! Keep up the good work,
I really like the group of friends that you all had with you during these Australian adventures, they seem so genuine.
A cinematic wonder. The drone shots, the music, the color, underwater, such viewing. So peaceful and relaxing. Thank you 🙏

You can do this, Keith!

So nice to see you again Thank you for sharing
Kind of a strange juxtaposition first showing the tiger shark followed immediately by Renee urging Keith to get in the water.
She was trying to chum for more tiger shark….
Glad to have the Z crew back online and see everyone is healthy

Once again, great editing job. You need to go to Hollywood. On second thought, DON'T! You are fine where you're at. :)
We need a conservative-moderate family friendly Hollywood, though.
Sky News Aus and Rebel News. The truth that hollyweird doesn't want you to hear.
Just watched our 50th episode. Love following y’all! We had a couple questions: 1. Jack and Lilly still an item? 2. We have Starlink satellite internet and love it. Y’all considering Starlink if they finally make it usable for boaters and RVers? 3. Ever had any shark scares? Thanks again for sharing your family story. Many blessings. 😁
Thx so much for bringing out a new video I always look forward to it👍👍
Yes, missed seeing you folks, glad your back to making videos, thank you
Great footage and top notch video quality, not implying other videos are lower quality (edit) especially the beginning of the video the areal footage). Thank you for another great video! Take care!
So glad you guy’s had a well deserved break to recharge. Because this episode shows the passion and love for what you do, and do so well. I’m just gonna sit back with a glass of wine, or a beer, or both, and watch it a few more times.🍷🍺 Gosh I’ve really miss this amazing family.⛵️🐚🐠☀️
Great to see you guys back on the TH-cam !
I almost died without your content for a month. Thanks for saving the day Zatara!
