    I love how you guys identify the fish you see so we know what we are looking at. Tnx for that ! :)

    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.

    • @SailingOneLife
      @SailingOneLife  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank you! Yes, we try to label them when we can! Happy to hear you like that part of our videos :)

    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. 💙

    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!😮

    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!

    • @SailingOneLife
      @SailingOneLife  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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!

    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).

    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!

    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?

    • @SailingOneLife
      @SailingOneLife  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    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.
