I'll say it again , some of the best , selfless people on TH-cam. Not helping people for likes on TH-cam, being kind to humanity and getting nothing in return. Cheers to you Ben and Ashley .
The way you stepped out and risked yourself to help the locals by towing them back home is just unbelievably courageous. We need more people like you guys in this world!! Thank you for always delivering such entertaining content, I always look forward to the Sunday morning uploads!
Of course, if you had had equal concern about your/family welfare as you had for the islanders, you might have filled the gas tank of the Highfield dingy to insure your own safety. You took a chance that turned out ok, but just remember to equalize the risks you might take for others sake cuz your family really needs your love and constant energy. And so do we. Very glad you could help the fellow mariners at the drop of the hat, great being in touch with your ability to help others. Just know that you are beyond precious to your three loves.
@@carenclemmons5002 Not only did he have plenty of fuel, they also have a buddy boat right there that could have assisted if needed. 😉 He did the right thing.
(after rescuing locals in a brutal gale - from the safety of their home Nahoa...) "Yeah, I had nothin' else to do." typical... my favourite Canadian Ambassadors are also Humble Heroes. This is why Sunday's aren't complete without my fix of Sailing Nahoa.
Welcome to Africa. The people here are different from the rest of the world. Please be careful. Desperate people do crazy things cause they have nothing to loose. Hopefully see you in Cape Town
Why wouldn’t you want to help someone just because? Do we really need to be rewarded for everything we do? The simple fact is it is very very hard to be selfless. Especially when you face danger mitigation on a daily basis like you do. This is an awesome example of selflessness. Needing nothing in return is a powerful place to be.
It was nice to see both Ben and Ashley agree with the plan to go help the locals get safely home. I say nice because it's not unusual as both Ben and Ashley grew up on the southern tip of a large Island off the coast of southern British Columbia and are familiar with wind, waves and boats. The best part was knowing Ashley stayed on board Nahoa, to monitor the anchor and keep the kids safe. Still it was nice as some folks wouldn't have done anything but watch. Go Canada.
Awesome video as usual. When I have guests or kids onboard , I have a small 4oz spray bottle with either vodka or rum in it and spray the gills of freshly caught fish. Kills them instantly without bludgeoning or stabbing the fish. Vodka at sea helps tooth ache , disinfects cuts and many other uses. These are waters I sailed in 1980 to1990.
You motivate us to do more - more kindness, more adventure, more using your brain. Thank you. Keep listening to your intuition,not the naysayers. Oh and Pete. Listen to Pete.
Great job of helping those with very little and also helping the guys in the storm/wind to get home.your right,mariner helping mariner,it is always the right thing to do!!well done.great video as always Fair winds ⛵️
That was so nice of you. Those guys were trying so hard to get home. And when you are all done, to see you pull up to your boat with your little fam all waving and shouting was just the cat's meow. Thank you for what you do from a fellow Canadian.💖🐻🌏🌠
The storytelling, rawness and humility of you both, sets you apart from many of the other " influencers" who simply use their body for likes and attention. The world needs more people like you.. willing to pay it forward, while also living out your dreams!
Paying it forward by helping another mariner out - a wonderful way to live your life together with your family. ❤ Thank you for sharing & uplifting our hearts by watching.
Good morning Nahoa family,dug out from 7 feet of snow and made an area for picnic table to bask in the sun with you.be safe and take care of little ones.
Always pay it forward. That's how the whole world can work. Thank you for your attitude and hard work to make these videos. From a fellow Canadian (sorry Ben) you make us proud!!
Love your journey! Thanks for sharing - not just superficial feelings, but your deep ones also. Hearing you speak of death, being a Christian, I believe we can know what happens to us. A great book to read ( besides the Bible lol) is the book A Case for Christ. Not trying to be pushy, but as someone who believes in heaven and hell, I always try and give people the option to know. It's your choice on what you do with it:) Praying safe travels for your family!
So glad you were able and more importantly willing to help tow thoughs guys. Great job. So the kiddies are learning where their plate of fish comes from, can't be a bad thing. Fresh fish yum caught by dad, special yum 👍wish you Happy and safe travels.
WOW Ben...you're definitely a hero. You guys have such a kind heart. It was beautiful what you and Ashley did in helping them out. I can see how joyful it is for you guys to extend a helping hand. Just beautiful. Well done Ben. Your kids will never forget these beautiful life lessons. I'm proud of you guys. I always learn something new from every video I've watched. Awesome.
Ashly and Ben, I enjoy following your family so much, you live by the same principles as I do and if enough of us all live this way, the World will be a better place🎉. Thanks for sharing your life with us…. PS beautiful children 😊
You're family is SOOO amazing and supportive! We love it! We're now subscribers as we've been watching your channel for a while now. You went out to help these vulnerable men to the environment and made a significant impact. Don't hesitate to call the Coast Guard and NEVER put your family at risk but how amazing!
@@mrno.7366 Not even close to how nice Canadians are! I have traveled all over the world and I have yet to meet a nicer bunch. And no, I am not Canadian myself.
Just an fyi a better way to dispatch a fish once out of the water is with a club fishermen use a wooden club very much like a small bat, not necessarily YT friendly but its quicker and you can still bleed it
Just watched Gone with the Wynns-drastic in styles. Big Tri’s with all the accruements or cruising in modest cats . You guys are truly REAL. You show the nitty gritty of real life in real countries. Good on You!! 💪
Yeah, Nikki and Jason have a different life style. But no less REAL. You should check out Nikki's early life and where she came from and what she and Jason did for some time to HELP someone in need.
@@rickkwitkoski1976 Agreed. Nikki & Jason have certainly done their part, and for someone to compare their "delivering a trimaran" to this video is apples to oranges. Skip back to their help in Tonga amongst other things. Both channels have really amazing stories to tell. Like Ben said... "it's not a race". Cheers!
Hello Ben, Ashley, Willa and Bodhi, I have a couple of close friends that have a grandchild named Willa. I really enjoy y'all's videos; and have been a follower and subscriber for a while, now. Ben, Of all of the TH-cam sailing channels that I watch, You are without a doubt the best fisherman of all. Cheers! Blue Skies and Fair Winds! Faithfully, James
So proud of you both ❤love watching you always give and love, all the while keeping you all safe,your doing great as parents and human beings. Never change your philosophies ❤❤❤
Absolutely THE thing to do. I have lost count of how many times that I have done this type of thing helping locals. And indeed you do get it back. Good for you!! I ll keep watching your journey. Great stuff. Thanks.
Ben and Ashley, I take off my hat for this action to help the men in the high winds - really great (!)👍👍👍 ...and like Ashley said, you've gotten kindness and help from so many people, and in life, help will come back any day - you're a great family (!) All the best for 2023 and always fair winds my best reagards from austria
Helping out others on the water is always big. One night my boat motor caught on fire and a tow from another boater saved me from spending a long night on the water. Something I have never forgot. Love the Nahoa crew!!!!!!!! btw! nice fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's really a pity that you folks are missing Kenya. I spent some time there years ago and went on a overnight van safari. It was probably the highlight of the 2 years that I lived in Africa.
Yeah. I haven't seen anyone stop in Kenya yet. A S. African couple sailed up the coast and got to Kenya. I forget the name of their channel. Zatara and Aquarius stopped in Tanzania but not Kenya. Where did you live "in Africa" for 2 years? I spent a month in Kenya... 41 years ago now! Nairobi to Mombasa to Malindi and back. I lived in Nigeria myself for 2 years.
"Love your work" ! Great karma and meaningful. You get it! As an avid sailor/ racer/ cruiser and keen follower, you REALLY send the right messages. 👌👍 best wishes from OZ🇦🇺
Brilliant for helping out. I was lucky in enough to be in the situation of helping others over the past holidays,.. was travelling around and fed 10 people over 10 days :)
From one boater to another? Thank you for that Ben and Ashley. I've been in both positions. I've pulled people home with my SeaRay. A friend and I were in my aluminum jon boat catfishing early in the year 94'. Motor went out and two boats passed us while we were in trouble. Had the flares and the whistle going and they looked the other way as they passed us by. We didn't have smartphones back then or I would have got a shot of their numbers. It's illegal here in the states to pass a boater in distress without rendering aid. Not to mention what the good Lord or Karma is going to do to you if you don't! We are subject to Murphy's Law more so than other folks. Best to keep your slate clean. Safe journey is my friends. 🙏
this is why you guys rock. I was worried about clickbait for a while, but yall arent just on a white spaceship flying overhead. I think you teach a lot of people to open their minds and hearts
I'm not sure if this is the second or first time I've commented, but I've been watching religiously since day one. Well done, guys. That's how you do it.
Lots of complaining in the comments today lol. Personally I turn off videos that I don’t agree with, or make me uncomfortable. I suggest that for everyone. ❤
You have Hearts of gold the way you help people you make marks on these country's you travel, no creed,no culture,or religion idealism and that makes you who you are equality in the world we realize does not always work probably almost never we are not all the same as well as we should try harder like you do to understand the differences we has humans should always strive to make things better good will always prevail over evil and the way you two and the children do it on youtube I am a witness and much respect from me graham,Vicki,the dog bear and the 4 birds inside much love fair winds and calm seas
Yet again you prove what amazing humans you are and continue to set a great example to your children. I agree with @barryholiday and it is also why you yourselves are blessed because by blessing you others will be blessed.
I think every Subaru driver in America should watch this video....I can definitely see that bringing books and educational tools and lots of other things would be super valuable as a cruiser in these remote areas...Thank you for the death and alive discussion.
Hi. I’ve been a viewer from the early days before kids In my previous life I built, owned and lived at a deep draft marina. Our children grew up on the water. Now as a retired grandparent, I am amazed at how the little ones seem to stumble and get jerked around on deck with no life gear. I get it. As a parent you don’t want them to fear the water. The big however for me is why no attempt to have even a self made inflatable device for them. A piece of clothing that would give them sun protection and flotation could be easily sewn up. Things can happen rather rapidly on the water, especially on a faster boat. As a test. Throw a fender overboard and see how fast you travel from it I am just an old lifetime sailer and mean you no harm with my perhaps harsh sounding comment . Take care
When gaffing a fish. Hold the gaff below/under the belly section of the fish at about a little forward of midpoint with the hook uppermost and pull the gaff towards you and up. You have much more chance of losing a fish gaffing as you did. You also damage less edible flesh by gaffing the belly section. happy fishing.
Another wonderful video. You both inspire me to see the best in people and be your best self. Your positive, kind attitude is exactly what we need more of in this world. Looking forward to more of Africa, safe sailing. Bec - Australia.
Look forward to you videos! Thanks so much for sharing your adventures with us. That mahi had to be a great dinner! Keep on doing what you’re doing. Don’t listen to the Karen’s and Jerry’s in the comments. 😂
Nahoa, you guys are the role model of global citizens/cruisers. So many times on YT the poor locals in developing countries were portraited by cruisers as dangerous and or crimes infected places. You genuinely wanting to share what you have with the locals is heartfelt. As for the little out of control from the crowd, this is mild chaos compared to the Black Friday shopping crowd at the mall in the US or Canada every Christmas and most shoppers already had a lot at home.
You guys are very special. It's nice to see your selfless generosity and the respect you have for ALL cultures. It's inspiring to see you exercise a consciousness of tolerance and respect. Thank you
I applaud your situational awareness! That was an environment full of uncertainty and elevated behavior. At the end of the day you have to live with the decisions you make. In such a remote place there is a heightened level of risk. Even an accident could be serious with no medical help nearby. I’m with you, time to move on! Many Blessings :D
Vera Birkenbihl said let us create a friendlyness chain (Freundlichkeitenkette) in the world, just do it now. I love that you guys do that too. And sometimes its not all about money its about us all - a sentient being
That was wonderful, doesn’t it give you a good feeling? To me it’s just what you do too and I think we would all be in a better place if we all lived our lives the way you guy’s do. Thank you for being such a wonderful example to everyone!
I'll say it again , some of the best , selfless people on TH-cam. Not helping people for likes on TH-cam, being kind to humanity and getting nothing in return. Cheers to you Ben and Ashley .

Exactly my thoughts.
Helping out is great and all, but going out alone in a $7000 boat to help random people in this area just seems incredibly risky.

Hi. I’ve been a viewer from the early days before kids In my previous life I built, owned and lived at a deep draft marina. Our children grew up on the water. Now as a retired grandparent, I am amazed at how the little ones seem to stumble and get jerked around on deck with no life gear. I get it.
As a parent you don’t want them to fear the water. The big however for me is why no attempt to have even a self made inflatable device for them. A piece of clothing that would give them sun protection and flotation
could be easily sewn up. Things can happen
rather rapidly on the water, especially on a faster boat. As a test. Throw a fender overboard and see how fast you travel from it
I am just an old lifetime sailer and mean you no harm with my perhaps harsh sounding comment . Take care

Vera Birkenbihl said let us create a friendlyness chain (Freundlichkeitenkette) in the world, just do it now. I love that you guys do that too. And sometimes its not all about money its about us all - a sentient being
It is you out there - namaste 🙏
Thankyou 👍
Great episode. Nice to see you cruising again
That was wonderful, doesn’t it give you a good feeling? To me it’s just what you do too and I think we would all be in a better place if we all lived our lives the way you guy’s do. Thank you for being such a wonderful example to everyone!
