The technology is bloody amazing...I'm in my living room armchair watching you guys in the middle of an ocean on the opposite side of the world...my first memory of television was my parent's small black and white tele with 2 channels!!!
Technology is fantastic these days 😄
I remember having a black and white TV and our bedroom arguing over the four channels 😎. We remember when channel 5 came out
Just in my short lifetime tech in Communications and IT (IT Really didnt exist when I was born, and didnt come until long after my teen years ie cells phones/internet etc), then came modems and muxing and then IT and Boom! I have more capability on my Cellphone now than Ive had on any PC Ive ever owned, we no longer own a pc. Shaka Lak! ✌🏻🍻
@@buzz5969 we grew up without internet and mobile phones. Internet first started to come out when I was about 17
The wave whisperers, you guys make sailing look so easy, some skill that!!
A crazy storm and coming through safely certainly merits the trademarked Vigorous Handshake. 😄
Indeed! It was a well deserved handshake 🤝
Haha, great stuff Guys!! Jemellie was indeed already parked up at Port Resolution when you made landfall. We were thinking of you at the time. Especially the cold surprised us. 😊
It was fun chatting to you on route 😁. It was cold with wind and rain just like being back home kind of 🤣🤣
You’re fine sailors. You recognize the rockin and rolling and rock and roll with it! Masters of the wind and waves with Atlas under your command.
Love that! 😁
You might want to keep the cabin hatch shut with a cross sea like that. One big wave and that dodger is flattened. Well done on getting there.
Yes I know we are guilty as charged 😞
Great passage guys those waves were crazy
It was very exhilarating
Thanks for letting us along for the adventure. The way you two banter back and forth and play off each other makes the show what it is; very enjoyable and fun.
We do have a good laugh and pick on each other 🤣🤣
Well done lads. I'm loving the cheese coloured foulies. Cheers.
Thank you! Cheers! 🧀🧀
Man, you guys are so so brave, taking big seas in your stride. Hats off to you! 🙌🙏
Thank you 🙌
It's Atlas that keeps us safe
Hi happy adventures as always thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching 🙂
Well done boys
Thanks Dirk 😁
Keep it up, fellas.
No fear
😎⛵
Another great passage. No insanity or chaos here in uk. We are sat in Foye estuary watching your adventures. Blooming lovely.
I bet it's absolutely lovely there 😍
Well done boys!
Thanks Mark 👌
Love you guys! The bit about the cheese was hilarious 😂 Finishing up in sketchy seas was exciting! Glad you made it safe and sound! See you next week!
You're the best!
See you next time 😁
I just love love the orange on the sails. Well finally found my boat. I am purchasing a Westsail 32, so I am getting closer to sailing off. I hope one day to be anchored in same bay and meet the famous sailing brothers. Your sailing heros!
Absolutely fantastic great choice of boat very strong will be very safe offshore ⛵. It's fantastic to be your heroes 😎💪
Hello Gentlemen, my last trip was Panama-Galapagos-Nuku Hiva. It was a glorious trip for sure. Seeing you with a Hinano Beer brought back fond memories. We were able to use the pool at the Le Nuku Hiva Hotel. It was very refreshing after the 3500 mile trip from the Galapagos 👍. I hope to take off on a much longer journey next year and hopefully you will still be sailing about the South Pacific. It’s so much better than the Mediterranean and Caribbean, much less crowded…. Fair winds and following seas Mates 😎⛵️
I bet that was really nice to have a cool dip in the pool lucky you 😁 the Pacific is fantastic much less crowded so vast! You can spend a lifetime and never visit everywhere
You chaps have my envy to see your adventures! May the winds be at your backs!
Thank you so much 👍
Close the companionway hatch then. Great video yet again. You just keep racking them up.
Good idea! 😜
@@TheSailingBrothers We have to put a towel on ours because it is clear plexiglass. If I had a dollar for every time I'd head butted it, I'd be rich.
@@philgray3443 haha
Goodness that was a bit scary . But well done . That curry looked delicious by the way x
The curry was absolutely banging snowy 😉
Great episode, loved it. The "Welcome to Vanuatu" line was very funny with the rain :)
It's tropical rain so it's warm 🥵🤣🤣
Well I’ve finally caught up after much binge watching from the first videos !!! Thank you for many many hours of entertainment chaps , absolutely loving your adventure and it’s making me want to get cracking and do the same .
Only minor criticism , you didn’t overlay “ men or Harlech” when you hoisted the dragon, I’m not even Welsh and started singing it anyway ha
Glad you manage to catch up David and it's great to know you are really enjoying all the videos. We really should have sang a tribute to the dragon 🐲😁
Another great video. Your in depth sailing knowledge grows by the day. Its a far cry from sailing my kayak! Which incidentally is called The Red Dragon!!!
Absolutely love the name of your kayak 💯
Another great video. Atlas seeing you safely through again. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.
Thanks for watching! 💪💪
That looked amazing, it’s sure obvious how comfortable you both have become in heavy weather. Cheers
It's the boat We trust Atlas with our lives
@@TheSailingBrothers and you got each other. I’ve have a brother and there is no one you can count on more when things really go sideways. 🙂
@@shawnlund exactly
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it, cheers Andre 👊
"we've got a bit of a dai-lemma" - I'm nicking that line the next time I'm cancelling someone's shopping lol
Dilemma 🤣🤣🤣
Real chicken
Always ready. Always prepared.
Your curry looks amazing!
Thanks a lot 😊
It was damn delicious
Protect the cheese at all costs!!
💯 🧀🧀🧀🧀🧀
2 supermarket workers eating cheese in exotic locations mostly afloat 😂 So funny watching this now and remembering your anxiety last time round Portland Bill… You to are equally funny, entertaining and amazing.. Fair winds Boys 🙂
We should have started a cheese travelling channel , oh wait we have 🤣🤣
hey guys great sailing and wow they were big waves you were riding. the curry looked great and i expect it was filling the tummies too, must say i liked the handle on the curry bowls , i said to my wife that they looked like babies potties. guys really great content as always and as always i look forward to your next video, have fun. regards robert
Hey Robert, she rode those waves like a boss 😎 the curry was absolutely delicious and we got those bowels from New Zealand they are fantastic
reefed main stabilizing with twin headsails - brilliant!
It's a fantastic sail setup ⛵
Good sailing, boys!!!
✌️👍
It puts you in touch with the essence of life!!
Definitely 💯
Oh! Okay so you only use the laptop for Passage planning like I do. Some great sailing you lads are putting in 👏👏👏
Yes we find the biggest screen helps with filming. We also use a tablets 👌👍
Nice job lads! Thanks for the video
Glad you enjoyed it
Really good rough sailing film. Difficult to show the real conditions but your filming brought them across so well. Pleased to see you both in life jackets as well. Enjoy Vanuatu !
We really did need our life jackets on this occasion it felt good to be strapped in that's for sure 😁
That was a tough sail but as usual, executed with professionalism and without drama👍👍
That's the sailing Brothers 😉
I would seriously buy those cups with the handles if you had them in your merch store. .
We bought them while we were in New Zealand
Hi guy. Just binge watched you ( over 5 days) from Wales to where you are now. Great vids. Have like 1m question. Keep it up
Welcome aboard! You have been Very busy 😎
Sorry I’m late. Better late than never. U R the Cheese Masters!!!
Love it 😍
Not nice lads, not nice, but as usual calm and good seamanship got you through. Did Biscay recently in 40+ knts and past Nazare in Portugal big waves are scary.
I bet that was quite scary especially in the Biscay 😮
@@TheSailingBrothers yes it was
A mere trifle of a wind! I think I remember Luke saying he was hoping for 50kts winds on this trip?😂
Joshua 23:8
"But you shall HOLD FAST to the Lord your God, as you have done to this day. " ✝️🇺🇲💪🙏
I think Luke would be absolutely terrified in 60 knots 😮😮😮😮
@@TheSailingBrothers
😂😂😂😂 if you're not then there might be something wrong with your cognitive thinking process! 😅
Great episode. Showing the rough stuff!! It's not always convenient in such circumstances. Thanks for keeping it real. The good, the ugly, of coarse the cheese!
We really enjoy filming our antics an adventure is for sharing ✌️
Stay safe Amigos!
Bloody fun as good to see you enjoying the swell now! Lucky buggers! Ps. Thaw out yr chicken first before cooking 😅
We never thaw out the chicken before cooking never have 🤔
Yes sir, they be sailors. I'm impressed
Ohh yeah 👍
‘Makes you feel alive” - you guys have come a long way since the Bay of Biscay! Great video great happy smiles and the curry looked pretty decent!
We would have been absolutely terrified if it was a couple of years ago
Thanks
@@rmoo2329 thanks so much 😀😀😀
Well, it started off just fine... While the waves were huge, I noticed how well Atlas was taking them on the rear quarter... She;s an ocean voyager for real... You boys did well setting her sails up appropriately for the conditions. Nice job...
She really does ride the sea very well for a small boat it's a credit to her designer Peter Brett. We think she's the perfect pocket cruiser 🤩
Your little ship is looking verry spiff now. All the mod cons! Who would have ever thought you would have internet in the middle of the pacific miles from anywhere, along with solar power. She is handling those conditions very well. Have fun lads! G'day from Tasmania
She is a fantastic little ship it's full of technology she is the perfect pocket cruiser 🤩
Well done Bros, great passage making. The cheese stocks look a bit low.
We were in a rush to get back to land to get some cheese 🧀
Well that was somewhat’lumpy’ as my Dad would have said!!
Bless Atlas and a few words of thanks to Neptune!!
Save sailing and thanks for another brilliant piece.
It was a little lumpy to say the least 😁. Atlas kept us safe once again
Good job you've got Atlas with those waves because they don't make them like they used to!!! 😮 the power hitting the yacht must be herendus, well done for keeping your cool, thanks again lads🎉🎉🎉
They don't make boats like they used to. Our Atlas is basically a tank 💪. She really does look after us
Great boat!!!!!
I had a great time in Vanuatu. Cruised a 39ft yacht around various islands for 2 months in 2013.
We are having the best time here too it's amazing
Delicious video boys. Stock up on cheddar...
Deal! 🤝
Another great vid, she's such a wonderful sea boat. Those images of her handling the wild sea as you approached landfall quite spectacular.
She really is a fantastic design Peter Brett was onto something for sure 😁
Really got the feeling of nerves out there in this video. Great work boyos. 👍❤️
We were truly nervous about that cold front 🥶
Maverick approves this crossing ~
Perfect 👌
🌊Good Sailing 🌬️
⛵👌
Great job guys, well done.
Thank you kindly! ✌️
Great lads just say what a great video KRO still love it and love to see you so happy one life live it
Thanks so much David 😁
Always fun and realy like to watch your adventures both of you. Thank you from Montreal Quebec. 😊
Thank you it's a pleasure. Hello to Montreal Quebec 👍
it is really nice to see the way you two interact with each other well done guys
That's nice of you to say Jay 😃
Well done boys, excellent boat handling once again in difficult conditions, but hey, you learned in the Bristol Chanel 😀
You got that right!
Bristol Channel sailing rules 😁
That was awesome - you guys are hilarious ❤
🤣🤣
A crazy ride, but you made it! It's always good to get to your destination, relax and have a good nap! Glad you made another step in your
adventures ! Stay safe from the east coast of Canada 🇨🇦
It was a crazy ride at the end very exciting good way to finish off the passage Lloyd 😁
@@TheSailingBrothers Now you can relax and enjoy life!
@@lloydbrown9327 oh yes until the next one haha
will you tidy that mainsail up please lads, its like going to dinner with your shirt hanging out 😂 loving your adventure ✊🏻🏴🇬🇧
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video as always. I can’t help noticing how much you use the solar panel supports to stabilise yourselves. Good job they are well secured.
That was some passage well done and keeeeeep shaking ( handshake that is )
We thought we would use the handles a lot great for supporting yourself. It's good for hanging washing and power in the boat ⛵😁
Another great video, well done. Also a very comfortable sail plan, too much sails makes everything hard work.
That's correct 💯
Small sails equals in control
Start fishing -- always a good idea
You got that right! 👍
Loved it well done guys ❤
Thanks 👍😊
Yet another excellent video guys thanks. Two points of interest, as I have commented on before Atlas has to be one of the best ocean going yachts on U Tub. Secondly Luke is a genius, I have emptied my freeze looking for stuff or trying to defrost the thing and have always struggled to get the stuff back in the same space. I had never worked out that when you put it in before it has frozen it will settle down to a neat shape. The only way of packing it back is to put everything back in exactly the same place (impossible). Thank Luke!
She is such a good boat in a seaway. Her designer had its spot on. I struggled to figured it out until Luke showed me, he is a genius 😂
Werry nice, Werry nice 👍 👌 ❤❤❤
😁😎✌️
Yet another great video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it🤩
Of course it’s about the cheese! We need an in-depth report on the cheeses of Vanuatu 🇻🇺
The cheese in Vanuatu is delicious although very expensive 😔
Great video guys! You were rocking and rolling there for a bit, but seemed to be just in front of the badness!
Yes we are 😁😂😁
Good job boys. Love the Episode 👍🏼❤️
Thank you we appreciate that 🙏
nice work guys, that cheese locker bit is awful small, we need another fridge just for cheese with a sponser, get asda to sponser you
We do need a designated cheese fridge sponsor 😁
Good job guys, it rough weather & those seas coming onto your starboard beam is not an appealing position . But it happens sometimes & ya have to just deal with it. Carry on lads & have fun , be safe enjoy life.Cheers .
It really isn't the best to have those conditions on the beam. Atlas did us proud 🥲
Delicious!!
Thank you 😋
Don't forget your vitamin C tablets and also multi vitamins.👍
Yes, true 😁
All the best 👍 Fiji islands taxi 🚕
Hey 👋
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it 😁😁
Boys great again. I'm on The Island (Barry), have an allotment overlooking Jackson's Bay, like to think i saw you pass me on you're way out round the UK.
Hope ironboots takes a long swim in deep water...
Safe passage &fair winds🏴🐟💨
Good old Barry Island 🏝️😎
I remember we once anchored in Jackson's Bay quite from years ago. Memories 😍
Wow great episode
😎✌️
Thanks!
Thank you so much 🙏
I think that’s the third time that bed has got soaked in bad weather.
Less thought on your cheese and more to put the cockpit cover on🤣
We really do need to keep the hatch closed nothing worse than a wet salty bed 🤕
Looks like you got a little surfing in - good you put in the boards in the companionway. Perhaps a bit of button snaps and cloth? Or zippers each side? Those hatch boards are an inconvenience so, they always are late to the game. Glad you made it in safe, in daylight. Hope you didn't get any weather surprises while trying to sleep after the passage?
The washboards are a little bit of a pain. We should have put them in earlier last thing you want is water in the boat. Luckily didn't have any more issues after that Passage ✌️
Great video guys!
Thanks so much!
6 sec apart these waves- ouch!
Very uncomfortable
Great to watch you having fun of your lives. We are sailing in Scotland with plan to get out to South Pacific and my home country Vanuatu. What brand freezer are you using and what volume? Enjoy yourselves
We really enjoyed sailing around Scotland ✌️⛵. Really enjoying your home country of Vanuatu. Our freezer is a brass monkey bought from New Zealand
Never hear of 4 reefs but what a great idea!! Say Cheese fondue!!!!
We have 5. But we are special.
Our sail maker pit in an extra reef in the main sail just in case 😊
Oh yeah !!! 😁🇨🇦🙋🏼♂️🙋♀️
Yep 🤝🙏💪✌️😎
I’d say “Sailing the sees of Cheese” by Primus would be an excellent song for your channel!😁👍👌
YES love it ✌️
Its Phoon (Typhoon), season over on this side of the world now amigos… As they say in The NAVY, HIGH WINDS and Following seas… FULL STEAM AHEAD!😊 Enjoy and Stay safe!!!✌🏻🍻
Better batton down the hatches buzz ✌️😎
You Boys! Stormy grey with big waves and gusting wind still sounds better than a day at work Eh! Adventure with a Giggle as always, must be doing something right if you make me laugh!
It's the best job in the world 🌍
We are very lucky indeed 🙏
Butter chicken curry... DELICIOUS.
So good 💯
