Definitely the soup ravioli 😂😂
Hey mate congrats you’re the winner of the fishing shirts! DM us on @theexplorelife Instagram and we’ll organise sizing and shipping for you 🤙🏼🤙🏼
@@theexplorelife sent you a dm cheers been loving the series so far can’t wait for the next episode
Thanks for all your support on this series so far team! We had a lot of fun filming it and can’t wait to bring you guys with us for the rest of the ride! 🍻
Is the KTM a 125?
The fact you guys love a drink is what attracts me to this channel. Genuine Aussie blokes. Total respect!!!!
I'd have to say guys that it's good to see that you guys don't hide mistakes/stuff ups.
Just shows that it doesn't matter how much you research and prepare things can always go wrong we are only human. But more so shows how things can change rapidly eg weather and plans sometimes need to change.
Looking forward to watching day 2!!
Our favourite part is the absolute pure joy of happiness before you guys send it off at the very beginning of the episode! Nothing beats the excitement or suspense building up to a holiday! Oh and the ceviche making! My absolute favourite!!! Can’t wait to see the next few episodes!
My favourite part is the lads all having a good time away enjoying what they love regardless of the situation in front of them!!
Gaaaaayyyyyyy
Nah man 100% favourite part, when you got to the boat ramp, that feeling before a trip is second to none! Literally nothing compares to the lead up.
Mint episode mate good on ya.
Love this lads! Nothing better than a boys fishing trip, sinking beers and talking smack! LETSSS GOOO
Gaaaaaaayyyyyyy, frothing yew🥴
My favourite part was when the fish started coming in and lofty’s face when you point out the bust up haha priceless.
not into boats or fishing but loving this series so far mate. just the sheer excitement and banter on a boys trip gives every bloke envy. Great work branching out from same old 4wding vids on the tube these days legend 💪💪
I'll back that comment.
Mate. I've been frothing for this series for god knows how long. 100% the best part is when you're first pushing out in the new boatie hearing the waves smack under you and you pick up the speed stoked to reach your destination and enjoy the north. Cheers for the series Matty! 🤙
Mate got to say seeing how happy you fellas were to launch the boat and get out on the trip of a lifetime is my favourite part, glad to see some good fellas living the dream. Crack on🍻🍻
My favourite part was when the boys cleaned up that snagged squidtrex off the coral 🤙🏼
My favourite part of the episode is just seeing how much fun the boys had, you could see how frothed Matty was when they arrived at the boat ramp and everything started to come together. Great episode keep it up (also, how does someone stuff up ravioli)
My favourite part of the video was when dinner was stuffed up, hahaha definitely not hard to cook pre cooked pasta lol! But loving this series. Looks like heaps of fun boys! Can’t wait to follow more episodes letsssss goooooooo 🤙🏻
That’s living!! Nothing better than waking up hung over the first day and getting life sorted again!!😂😂
My favourite part of this episode, is seeing the sheer excitement on your face.
Watching from day 1, then seeing a dream come true is awesome to see.
Keep it going!
The look on the boys faces when they see the bust up going behind the camera is like a kid going in a maccas playground love it haha enjoy the new series boys
Hey guys!
Couldnt have been happier to see this upload this arvo ❤
My favourite part? Well there's a good few of them but honestly my favourite thing in this episode is just to see the complete and absolute joy in you guys even with the few upsets!
Enjoy boys!
Best part in my opinion would be the honesty mate...
Owning you didn't plan the trip right should show the haters the type of bloke you are 👏👏
Definitely one of the best parts is when you spot that bust up an lofty's face expression was priceless... loving the new eps matt and team
My favourite part was knowing you guys coming through my home town. Great part of the world and best town in Aus!
Best part! 🤔 best parts is seeing all you guys doing what guys should be doing, riding through the ups and downs like absolute legends with smiles on your faces!! Good onya boys 🤙
I think everyone will say the same thing. How happy you lads all looked getting ready and out on the water. Gotta say though the won tong soup was hilarious 😂 and my lads face at home and how jealous he is watching it all unfold. We’ll be doing this one day for sure
Loving the Explore Offshore series, favourite part is adapting to the conditions and not letting fuel and weather slow you down. Always hit send and see where you land! Keep up the great work, we all appreciate it
Love the positivity when stuff goes wrong like fuel planning and fish getting away when youre desperate for a feed. Keep living the dream.👍
Favourite part would have to be the shot from the chest mount, watching you cranking on that TLD got my heart pumping like I was there!
This is an absolutely killer series lads, one could only dream of such an adventure!
Favourite part is seeing the new boat in action - what a beast!
Would have to be the rum walk 😂 and the fact that ya don’t hide the mistakes, love the show legends
Best part is dropping the boat in the water no doubt. The froth doesn’t get old no matter how many times you do it.
Most concerning bit, was looking at how heavy your boat is and how much free board was effected haha
I have absolutely loved this whole series and the excitement that pulls through the screen but my favourite part of this vid was releasing the first catches of the trip, it's always been a tradition in my family regardless the fish or size 😂
man ive been frothing over this series i loved the packing of the boat video, but the best part of this was the ceviche that looked so fresh and tasty the mango is a game changer! cant wait for the rest, you should of put up a sos to people to bring you fuel to punch out further haha
Best part was Lofty buggering up the ravioli, this had us in hysterics! Thanks for the awesome footage guys.
Best part is Loftys Attitude 😂 cracks me up how happy he is. Lofty in a boat! Nothing will bring him down! 😂😂
Keen for this boys living the first episode.
Best part of the episode and made me laugh was loftys Tommyamsoup 🍜 haha surely can’t get worse than that for the rest of the trip.
Love the enthusiasm and excitement for a boys trip 💪 as a stitch up you should put subtitles for Deano 😂
The best part was the whole episode! keen for the next one's!
by far my fave series from you.cheers fella
Fav part is at the boat ramp before heading out. It’s the best feeling - like the night before Christmas knowing you are about to have an epic trip with mates! Can see the sheer joy on everyone’s faces - I can relate! 😊
Absolute ripper of a series. What a dream trip. My favourite part of this video is the boys fishing. Lofty Absolute gun. Donny landing an absolute ripper of a fish
Favourite part all the excitement before and trip prep
Love the work boys! Best part is still being a coffee snob on the middle of the ocean 😂
What a Series. From the load up to hitting the water. Can’t wait to see more. Funniest part for me was when deano dropped the trout haha
My fave part of this video is finally seeing the boat in the wet stuff looking all majestical... and the out takes at the end.
Good work lads! Gotta love a good explore.. Favourite part is the honest assessment and taking time to review your plans when you realised things had to change. It's good that you don't just cut those parts out to make it look like everything is perfect all the time. But still positive the whole way through. Nice work!
Fav part is that the beers are always the first priority yew go the boys 🤙🏼🍻
My fav parts are how happy you fellas are before Yas left and Loftys attempt at ravioli 🤣🤣
This is honestly the ultimate lads trip all the gear and no idea "jokes" bought all this sick equipment and use the trusty old tld hahahaha classic !! cant wait to keep up with this trip fellas keep em comeing!!!! yeew
My favourite part was yous all catching Spanish mackerel and GT’s. Love watching these adventures living of the boat and having the best time of your life nothin beats it.🎣
How good is the banter and laughs between damn good mates. Love it. Best part - think we don’t have enough fuel “think lofty’s been drinking it” 😂. Gotta fuel the body Matty!
This is great, if you got the means go for it and liv for the moment, enjoy it and make memories.
Good start to the new trip........
Always teething problems to any new setup, pretty sure you'll get it sorted.
Thanks for the share
🇿🇦🤙👍
my favourite part of the vid would definitely be you all punching it out through the slop! absolute killer of a vid🤙🏾
My favourite part was when lofty stuffed up ravioli. Its not that hard to stuff it up. Love the vids guys keep up the good work
Favourite part of this episode would have to be the banter, especially after the ravioli disaster. 🤣🤣
my favourite part was all the fishing and the cinematics
My favourite part was the boys punching back to the island after some fishing, vibes were on
The best part was the outtakes. You have to love a good laugh on a boys trip of a lifetime.
Favourite part hmm hard to pick
I’d have to say the adventure in its self
Fishing the unknown and having to adapt to different conditions like the fuel etc
Definitely gets me keen to wanna get out and fish again
Loftys there like a little kid in a lolly shop, absolutely loving life! 😂
Awesome content guys, f’n nailed it, my fav part is that you have realised the reality of the trip, re-evaluated, and just get it done, bit jealous can confirm
The savichi looked phenomenal, can't pick between that and the mackerel catch and cook for my favourite!
Gotta love the old wonton soup!! and shopping on the island, absolutely gold fellas!!! Keep it up!!
Mate you guys had a bloody ripper trip blokes ,mates 2 boats awesome that is a bucket list trip and love ya boats, wish I had one and decked out exactly like yours, well done keep these shows coming , I'll be watching.
Favourite part was the Aussie Riptide keeping up with the kiwi beast!
Спасибо за шикарное видео.
Очень интересное видео.
Всем тепла, добра и радости.
Обнял!
Favourite part is the missing trout!! Loving the boat and series
Favourite part of the ep was at the end when you are all eating the fresh Mack & didn't tell Lofty who was up the front fishing 😂 "old Sammy don't mind a bit of"
my favourite part is the connection you lads got. it is comical, full of laughs and smiles. dreams of doing trips like yours with my lads.
that cray got proper punished by the skew jesus.
Good start! Best part, Matty’s face when taking off from the ramp! We are heavy! 😂😂
Fav, bunch of pirates living the Aussie dream!!! AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE, OY OY OY!
My fav part of the episode is just the pure excitement on everyone face! You can tell you boys were genuinely excited for everything!
When you decided to stick at the first spot for a couple days. When you are hopping spot to spot it can be tiring, nice to relax, get on the pints early and enjoy.
Favourite part would be the faces when you realised the fuel consumption. ‘Bugger’😂
Best part for me was under estimating the fuel you needed. Lol just like the rest of us. Excitement gets in the way.
Good info on the bladder guys. Cheers. What a trip
Fave part was Deano’s reaction when he lost his trout 😂
Favourite parts gotta be seeing that boat hit the water and know you're in for the time of your life with mates ! What's beter ?!
Favorite part was seeing you put in at Cooktown!!! It doesn't get enough clout. Stunning place I call home ❤
Fave part how giddy you all are!
My favourite part of the episode was when you gave your honest opinion on the dog and gun coffee 😂
Awesome episode lads !! Always will be problems with trips like this but adapting and over coming and still having the best time is what it's all about! Love the merch and can't wait to cop a new shirt from the fresh drop. Can't wait for the next episode!
Haha Matt trying to smash all the fresh Mackie before everyone realises ahaha 😂
All the boys on one boat.... That's where it's at
G of the Beach. Nice work
Don't have a favourite part, whole episode was unreal living the dream brother yewwww.
Best parts definitely lofty when he caught eyes on the bust up 🤣🤣
Loved the Lofty redemption, after 'Ravioli Soup' and Matt's rendition:- "Just when I thought you couldn't get any Stupider .. you go an totally redeem yourself" 😂
My favourite part was when deno droped the big coral trout and everyone was sad because it was a good one as well and when lofty got the big queen of the beach
My favourite part is the boys on the Travlas just loving life! So bloody jealous
Absolutely loving this guys!

Wow finally got to see this beast on the water cant wait to see what you get up too. Wow loved the rotisserie ready Cray 🤣🤣 bring on more boat Episodes .. Wow also loved the set up frothin 🎉
I have always wanted to make my own ceviche and a while back you started making it and showing how simple it is, every chance I get now its first thing on the menu when out on the water. Definitely trying mango on the next batch
Cheers Legend!
That's awesome to hear, it's a classic for a reason!
Favourite part. Mattys face, “heavy , were heavy”
Favourite part is the amount of beer on the boat and trip away with the lads.
Epic stuff lads, love it. Cant wait to save up enough coin to buy a boat capable of doing this sort of trip one day.
Absolute best part is that first full throttle punch, means the trip is on 👍.
My best part was the time you had on your first island. That looked awesome.
Favourite part was the excitement of Donnie and Deano. When they saw the boats floating.
Best part is looking at that offshore boat in the water……..looks mint 👌
