I just LOVE that you nametag the different fish and wilde life you see when you dive. Pls continue with that. It's ok that you don't tag every fish. It's so much more intresting when you see what types of fish you encounter.
You guys made our day here in Sausalito, CA. We went to Bora Bora with you while we celebrated our birthdays with corn bread and fresh fruit for breakfast! Brooke, thank you so much for your superb editing including the fish name captions. Gary, your tour of your on-board dive shop was excellent. We cruised to Fr. Polynesia in 1976 - '77 on a 1 year visa on a Kendall 32 we had built from a bare hull. That Visa allowed us over a month at each island. So many fond memories. Lastly I took a screen grab of your eagle ray footage and I will use it as a screensaver.🤟
Oh how fun! So glad we could help celebrate with you guys! We can't imagine how beautiful the reefs were when you visited in the 70's! Amazing! Thank you for using our footage for a screensaver. 💙
I was more interested in that burrito! Amazing underwater shots and background while Gary was giving an overview of your dive kit….that was good! Hugs you two 🤗
I think your best episode yet....the underwater footage was amazing , capturing the octopus was stunning but seeing your silhouette with the eagle rays was breathtaking.
You guys do the best job of photographing your dives. You commentary is great. I can't dive anymore and love to relive my dives through you. Been in the same waters in Tahiti and Bora Bora. Keep up the great work. You are making safety stops aren't you?
Hey Scott! Happy to hear you are enjoying our dive footage and love that you have also been able to experience the amazing underwear world of French Polynesia. Yep, we always do our safety stops. We are very conservative divers since most of the time it is just the two of us.
Please forgive me but every time I hear about pearl necklace I think of that song by Z Z Top Pearl Necklace. 😮 Thank you for taking me scuba diving. I've actually never been scuba diving. I used to free dive alot. But I was in my 50's back then. I used to dive between 30 and 40 feet regularly. But like I said I was younger than. And yes it was an extremely rare thing to see two Octopus together. I guess he was giving her a pearl necklace!😮
You’re not only bringing us beautiful videos of tropical places but you’re helping to remind us of how important our environment is and what a terrible loss it would be to see those places suffer from pollution. I’m in awe of those locations.
Another great episode. We also love how you identify the fish for us. Thank you so much. You are in my top 5 Sailing channels. We are really really enjoying your content and your adventures. 😊⛵⚓⛵⚓
Thanks, Andrew! Ah yes, we have been meaning to put together a video about our refit expenses in Mexico....I'll try to at least get this posted on Patreon sometime soon!
Beautiful underwater world. Thanks for exposing that for us. Love your new pearl necklace Brooke. Nice review of your dive compressor and equipment Gary. It’s been a good while since I strapped a tank on but it all came back during your review. Another OUTSTANDING video. Thank you guys 👍👏🏻🥂 cheers…
Hey Trent! Thank you! Happy to hear you liked this one! We just shared some Drift Creek 'shine with our new Kiwi friends! I'll send you a picture via email soon! 💙💙
Seeing the Octopi was so Cool, I have been diving over 30years and I’ve never seen anything like that & I didn’t know that was how they bred either. They looked like they were different, but maybe just between males & females? I appreciate the extra time & effort it takes to identify and then label the Fish, it makes a difference to feel like you’re learning something too!
From our research, we think what was happening was they were both trying to blend in with the coral which made them appear to look like different species. Such a cool experience and so stoked we were able to capture a bit of it to share!
Another enjoyable watch. Thank you for sharing. Keep up the good work & I look forward to seeing you both real soon. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Hey guys! Thanks for letting me tag along on another One Life adventure! Underwater footage was awesome as usual. Special thanks for the Octopi porn, made my night, lol! Topside water views, or color I guess, is amazing. You guys look so relaxed and enjoying your time. See ya on the next one!!
It’s amazing how you mix with the marine life. It looks so peaceful and wonderful. Thanks for such a great underwater video. Love from Justine and Raúl.
Your videos are so special, thank you. Connecting to Nature makes us all better humans and often brings tears of gratitude to my eyes, as did the view of the school of spotted eagle rays. Thank you for my Sunday morning "service." Namaste. 🙏
Ì have dived many places around the world, including french polynesia, and what you two got to witness and experience is what makes that place so special. It's the abundance of wildlife. Good episode!
WOW , seems like and understatement with all the Rays . It was awesome , with all the other sailing shows I watch , I have never seen that many Rays in one spot . Truly a magical moment .. Look forward to your next adventure . Smooth seas .
Guys, I totally intend to get a dive compressor like yours. I love the little peek into that portion of your cruising. Thanks. Hate to see you leave the south pacific, but so much more to see. Cheers from Charlotte, NC!
Yeah, we were pretty bummed to leave French Polynesia but so much of the South Pacific left to see. The dive compressor is our favorite 'toy' on the boat!
Great episode!!! The diving looks spectacular and your taking us along is much appreciated as was the mini-documentary on how you manage your own diving!! Fabulous.... thanks... keep enjoying!
Lovely diving video /scenery. Wow has 3 months gone by already. Just seems like you have arrived there after your crossing the pacific ocean from Mexico. Good luck with the next leg of the adventure.
😀😀😀👍👍👍❤ Hello from Seattle, WA. Awesome dive footage! Very few can say they have been to Bora Bora! You guys are living the life, indeed. Thanks for the upload. Please keep them coming.
Your fruit is called a rose apple in English. Great you got to try them. SOrry you weren't able to spend more time in Huahine; the most authentic island in the ISLV> Bons vents
Thanks for bringing us to Bora Bora. Loved the diving footage, octopuses mating, eagle rays. Saw my first eagle ray at Pulau Weh (Sabang) off Banda Aceh, Sumatra. Convinced me to invest in a prescriprion mask. Off the usual cruisers path, but lovely (2008). Health and peace
Was such a good video 😊💙 thank y’all! We are prepping for our charter season and planning our diving trip to the Texas Flower Gardens before our season begins 🤞🏻 while Dave is super seasoned, I’m a bit of a novice in comparison. Your video helps me with understanding of all the aspects to include on the checklist 😁 Looking for that dive compressor and prepping for an amazing season of diving and sailing with customers in the Gulf of Mex and TX coast 🥰 safe travels! Excited to see what adventure 2024 will hold!
That's fantastic that you guys made it to Bora, Bora. I am grinning and I am not even there, lol. Wow, that shot of the surface above and the school of fish was awesome. I love the abundance of sea life and tom see the Octopi, wow. Oh wow, those Eagle rays.... mesmerizing. It's been a long time since I dived, but you guys are giving me the itch! Lol. Another great vlog :)
What else ya gonna do when you have to kill 3 days in Bora Bora... Go Diving! As tempting as it probably was to follow that first Eagle Ray, it sure paid off sticking to the dive plan! Octopus mating and swimming with a large group of Rays... bucket list stuff!! Bye bye French Polynesia, hello whatever comes next!
@@SailingOneLife Can’t wait. Australian Immigration and/or customs can give you a hard time. I am sure you hear some stories from other sailers. Would you sail west towards Indian Ocean or back east towards South America next? :)
We love your adventures and your videos are fabulous. If we wanted to send you something where would we send it ? It's small but Brook you will love it . Cheers
Hi Gary! Aw, that is so kind of you. We typically have things sent to Gary's parents and then they send it to us when we are in a spot we can receive things. Shoot us an email and we can forward their address if you'd like. 💙
Thank you! Some of it is word of mouth from people who have been there before us but we also use the boating app, Navionics as sometimes people mark dive sites in there!
Sorry I'm late!!! Seeing these shots of bays filled with sailboats got me wondering... How many of those boats are "production boats" like Jeammeau, Beneteau, or Catalina? Or is it mostly "blue water" boats?
Hey Chris! When we were in the Caribbean we saw quite a few Jenneaus, Beneteaus and Catalinas but we don't see as many here in the Pacific. We tend to see quite a few cats and lots of salty 'blue water' monos.
I'm sure you've figured out the fruit you were eating at the end of your video, but I'm positive it was a 'Bora Berry' They're native from India. Do you recall if what they called them, sounded like 'baie de bora'...?
Not sure what Tahitians call the red fruit. Samoan name if Nonu or Gogu (sounds like "Gnognu"). Depending on the verity, it can taste like a plum or it can have an almost sweet but sappy flavor.
I love how you guys identify the fish you see so we know what we are looking at. Tnx for that ! :)
Glad you enjoy the fish labels! Thank you!
I just LOVE that you nametag the different fish and wilde life you see when you dive. Pls continue with that. It's ok that you don't tag every fish. It's so much more intresting when you see what types of fish you encounter.

Dive Jesus knows what instructions we need and his Dive Angel provides such beautiful underwater videos
Dive Jesus strikes again! Thanks, Don! 💙💙💦💦
Aw, thanks Obie & Laurie! Haha, the burrito was below average but the diving was top notch! Sending big hugs to you guys! 💙💙
Think IM inspired yo learn scuba diving!! 🤿
Syzygium malaccense is a species of flowering tree native to tropical Asia and Australia. It is one of the species cultivated since prehistoric times!
After researching that was my guess. Providing we are talking about the fruit commonly known as mangosteen
@@californiakayaker mangosteen has pods as the fruit he was enjoying was singular. Though mangosteen is quite delicious!
I thought it looked like Water apple
Thank you both for an adventure, in places, I will probably not get to see in this life. I really do like going with you both.
Thank you for coming along with us out here! 💙
I think your best episode yet....the underwater footage was amazing , capturing the octopus was stunning but seeing your silhouette with the eagle rays was breathtaking.
Thanks, G! We loved this episode too! Can't wait for you to get out here!
How beautiful. Glad to see you guys enjoying life and taking us with you on these adventures. Stay safe and well. Yolo! ❤🙏🏻🙌🏼
Hey Jorge! YOLO, absolutely!! 💙⛵
Once again, awesome dive footage! It would definitely be difficult to check out of such a paradise.
Hey Larry! Yes, it was bittersweet for us checking out of French Polynesia but there is so much more for us to see! Glad you enjoyed the dive footage!
GOOD MORNING SV ONE LIFE! mY FAVORITE SAILING CHANNEL.
Hi Scott! Hope you are having a good week! 💙🌍⛵💦
You are right. The breathe taking moments with things people never get to see is why we dive. Great video.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
23:53 : wax apple / Java apple / waxjambu / water apple / jamalac are some names of this fruit
You guys do the best job of photographing your dives. You commentary is great. I can't dive anymore and love to relive my dives through you. Been in the same waters in Tahiti and Bora Bora. Keep up the great work. You are making safety stops aren't you?

Thank you! We are happy to know you are enjoying our channel and that you appreciate the fish labels! We appreciate you coming along with us out here!
Great episode, so much color in those coral reefs!
Thank you! Yes, so many colorful reefs in around the South Pacific!
Love the detailed break downs on various activities, you folks do it better that most. Would love to see an updated budget/Cost review since Mexico.
Thanks, Andrew! Ah yes, we have been meaning to put together a video about our refit expenses in Mexico....I'll try to at least get this posted on Patreon sometime soon!
Absolutely love traveling vicariously through you. My ex husband was a PADI/PDIC instructor so I love watching your dives. That water…
Thank you for coming along with us on this journey! Glad you like the dive footage! It's always our favorite to edit!
Amazing! Another video so quickly. Thank you!
Thank you! Yes, we are trying to get videos out a little quicker!
I love it when you show us your diving! And thank you for the explanation on how the diving works - very interesting!
So happy to hear you enjoy the diving parts of our videos! Diving is always our favorite to edit!
One of the best videos yet. Anyone who’s done just a little diving like me is just blown away with the sea life you’ve shared.
Thank you! So good to hear you really enjoyed this one!
EPIC DIVE ❤
Thanks, Scott! We were pretty stoked about our dives here!
I really believe you ate a mountain apple. Or maylay apple
I was thinking the same thing. Used to get these whenever hiking in Manoa Valley on the island of Oahu.
Yes, we looked up mountain apple after your comment and it looked a lot like that!
Fantastic 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you!💙
Beautiful underwater world. Thanks for exposing that for us. Love your new pearl necklace Brooke. Nice review of your dive compressor and equipment Gary. It’s been a good while since I strapped a tank on but it all came back during your review. Another OUTSTANDING video. Thank you guys 👍👏🏻🥂 cheers…
Hey Trent! Thank you! Happy to hear you liked this one! We just shared some Drift Creek 'shine with our new Kiwi friends! I'll send you a picture via email soon! 💙💙
It’s been said many times already in the comments, but again, thank you so much for putting the names of the fish on the screen when you are diving!
Hey Matt! No problem! We like labeling the fish because it helps us learn about what we are seeing too!
Beautiful video again folks - thank you so much for sharing ❤
Thank you! 💙
Good morning and Happy Easter Brooke and Gary. Amazing dive footage. Pretty amazing to be in Bora Bora, wow.. Thanks for sharing your adventures. ❤🥚😃

Thank you, Craig! We have had some incredible underwater experiences in the South Pacific!
It's always a good One Life vid when it involves a dive! Thank you!
Hey Rick, thanks! We love all the diving in the South Pacific and are so happy we get to share it!
What a beautiful and totally groovy episode. You guys are such a joy to follow.
Thanks for always coming along with us! 💙💙
I'll be there in 6 days! I can't wait!
Hope you have the best time ever!
Epic diving footage. Brooke always does a great job.
Thanks, Dennis! I appreciate it! Although I'd love to take all the credit, is a joint effort, Gary and I both work on the videos. 💙
Ditto below. Love the fish names!!!!
Thank you! 🤩
Lovely diving video /scenery. Wow has 3 months gone by already. Just seems like you have arrived there after your crossing the pacific ocean from Mexico. Good luck with the next leg of the adventure.

nice, we are exploring cost of Corralejo now
Very cool! Enjoy!
Your fruit is called a rose apple in English. Great you got to try them. SOrry you weren't able to spend more time in Huahine; the most authentic island in the ISLV> Bons vents

Thanks, Dennis! 🙌⛵
I just ordered one of your Epic Water Bottles! Thanks for the Heads Up!
Ah cool! Thank you! 💦🌎
Thank you for another great video guys!👍🥰🏴
Thank you for always commenting! 💙
The fruit you talked at the final in Costa Rica is called "Manzana de agua" or "water apple"
Yes exactly! Some comments below also called it a rose apple.
Amazing dive! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for coming along with us!
Theres always some amazing footage to see..Well done on the filming and editing you pair 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you very much, Sean!
Thanks for bringing us to Bora Bora. Loved the diving footage, octopuses mating, eagle rays. Saw my first eagle ray at Pulau Weh (Sabang) off Banda Aceh, Sumatra. Convinced me to invest in a prescriprion mask. Off the usual cruisers path, but lovely (2008).
Health and peace
Wow, we would love to visit Pulau....did you sail there? We are actually considering heading that way but hard to find much info on the sailing part.
Awesome video! We call them Jamaican apples in Caribbean, also known as Otaheite apple or Malay apple or rose apple
Yes! Exactly what it was. We can't believe we hadn't had these before now!
Wonderful underwater footage and great video! 😍
Thank you! The diving in Bora Bora was epic!
Was such a good video 😊💙 thank y’all! We are prepping for our charter season and planning our diving trip to the Texas Flower Gardens before our season begins 🤞🏻 while Dave is super seasoned, I’m a bit of a novice in comparison.

I freaking loved it when you came into the school of Eagle rays. That was absolutely awesome.
It was so freaking cool!! 💙🙌
Wow. What a wonderful video.
Thank you! 💙
Great channel and video, as always!
Thank you so much! 💙
That's fantastic that you guys made it to Bora, Bora. I am grinning and I am not even there, lol. Wow, that shot of the surface above and the school of fish was awesome. I love the abundance of sea life and tom see the Octopi, wow. Oh wow, those Eagle rays.... mesmerizing. It's been a long time since I dived, but you guys are giving me the itch! Lol. Another great vlog :)
The eagle rays were the coolest! Can't believe we saw so many!
Love this type of video.
Good to hear you enjoyed this one!
Love the diving!
Thank you! 🙌🐟
Great stuff guys. Love the new camera gear.
Hey, thank you! Glad you are noticing the new gear!
Your cameras are amazing
Thank you! 💙
Great video guys!
Thanks guys! Hope you are doing fantastic! 💗
Great episode tyvm
Thank you! Happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Loved this episode ❤❤
Thanks, Bob! Hope you are doing great!
Amazing episode
Ah, thank you! 💙⛵
I love that you label the fish. and your camera footage is great what cameras do you use.
Thank you! All our underwater footage is with the GoPro Hero11 in a dive housing with Nemo dive lights
Great video thanks for sharing !!
Thanks for coming along with us!
love your underwater footage and that you name the species when possible.
Thank you! Happy to hear you like when we label the fish!!
Amazing dive. Thanks Love it.
Hey Jerry, thank you!! 💙
New subscriber, love the dive footage
Thanks for coming along with us! 💙
Beautiful place. I like Tahiti a bit better with more of a mix of old and new.
Yeah, both places have good qualities. The diving in Bora Bora was pretty great but I think overall we preferred the Tuamotus.
What else ya gonna do when you have to kill 3 days in Bora Bora... Go Diving! As tempting as it probably was to follow that first Eagle Ray, it sure paid off sticking to the dive plan! Octopus mating and swimming with a large group of Rays... bucket list stuff!! Bye bye French Polynesia, hello whatever comes next!
Haha so glad we didn't chase after that first one! Thanks, Bruce! Lots of good stuff coming soon!
Amazing!
Thank you!
So did you guys also visit New Zealand during the South Pacific journey? I wouldn’t go to Australia but New Zealand is a must I would say.
Hey Dylan! Yep! You will see NZ in future videos! We aren't sure if we will visit Australia. It's possible but not on our radar yet.
@@SailingOneLife Can’t wait. Australian Immigration and/or customs can give you a hard time. I am sure you hear some stories from other sailers. Would you sail west towards Indian Ocean or back east towards South America next? :)
We love your adventures and your videos are fabulous. If we wanted to send you something where would we send it ? It's small but Brook you will love it . Cheers
Hi Gary! Aw, that is so kind of you. We typically have things sent to Gary's parents and then they send it to us when we are in a spot we can receive things. Shoot us an email and we can forward their address if you'd like. 💙
Awesome thanks awesome
Thanks, Rick! Glad you are enjoying our videos!
Great video you two! Loved this episode. What app/webpage do you use to find dive sites? I loved the dive gear info session!
Thank you! Some of it is word of mouth from people who have been there before us but we also use the boating app, Navionics as sometimes people mark dive sites in there!
Sorry I'm late!!! Seeing these shots of bays filled with sailboats got me wondering... How many of those boats are "production boats" like Jeammeau, Beneteau, or Catalina? Or is it mostly "blue water" boats?

Yes! This is exactly what it was. Thank you :)
I'm sure you've figured out the fruit you were eating at the end of your video, but I'm positive it was a 'Bora Berry' They're native from India.
Do you recall if what they called them, sounded like 'baie de bora'...?
We believe it is a Rose Apple similar to a Bora Berry!
Nice video of the eagle rays. Did you see the clownfish at that dive site?
Did you skip diving ay the manta ray cleaning station in Bora Bora?
We didn't see the clownfish and we skipped the manta ray cleaning station. Did you dive with the mantas?
@@SailingOneLife Yes, the cleaning station was wonderful. BUT, we paid about $150 per dive, ouch!
@kathleendurnwald5757 ooof! Yes, we heard the dive shops don't like divers visiting there on their own so we stayed away.
That is what we call a rose apple im Panama Canal Zone.
Yes! Exactly what it was!
FYI, Gendarmerie (Army related) is usually in the countryside and in cities you will find the Police. Nice video btw. Cheers from Paris :-)
Hey there :) Thanks for the hello from Paris! Makes sense to hear about the location of the Gendarmerie vs Police.
Not sure what Tahitians call the red fruit. Samoan name if Nonu or Gogu (sounds like "Gnognu"). Depending on the verity, it can taste like a plum or it can have an almost sweet but sappy flavor.
Thanks for the info! 🙌
There is a YT channel SV Bora Bora. They are not sailing right now but I believe they left up all their previous videos.
Ah cool, we will look them up!
@@SailingOneLife It was one of my favorite sailing channels back when they were actively sailing.
