- Running aground is a constant risk when Sailing in the Bahamas, but navigating over the shallow sandbanks with turquoise waters for miles around makes it worth while. In the rarely visited outer islands we find stunning deserted beaches all to ourselves before we visit Deans blue hole, the second deepest blue hole in the world.

Honestly, every time I think your cinematography can’t get any better you go to the next level. This episode was just stunning from beginning to end.
Holy moley Amy and Matt - those underwater shots of Florence gently sailing past were absolutely mesmerising. Would love to see an episode of how you produce your excellent videos, it was great seeing how you did the over/under shot. Also - this episode is superb, great seeing you two enjoying each others company. As for the blue hole you have visited - I've been to the one in Dahab, Egypt which was fantastic as well. John.
Stunning pictures. Thank you for sharing this incredible adventure with us. Fair winds and following seas.
My husband and I recently purchased a Mason 48 and I have to thank you both for being part of the inspiration for us to take the plunge. Fair winds and following seas ❤⛵☀️
I respect the time that must have taken to grab those underwater shots of Florence sailing overhead. Awesome!
You are the best Sailing channel and sailors too. Miles away everybody else... What a journey, what a life you had been living!!!
I grew up sailing in the Bahamas in the 70/80s.
I was under the impression it was all transformed negatively by now.
Glad to still see some outer island nature.
This is such a polished channel, I am stunned that it only has 117K subscribers. You should have well over 250K by now. Come on people, do the honours and hit the scribe button. They are worth it!
I went back and watched some of the videos from the visit to the Marquesas… the videos were good then, but it’s plain to see that you two have become world class videographers in the 5 years(!!!) since then.
They should definitely do another loop around the world!
@@susanroberts6514 nah, they have other plans. I’m really interested to see what the future holds for them!!
I can't begin to describe this video other than beautiful and stunning! It feels like I'm actually there! Thank you so much Matt and Amy!😊
I've been following you two from the beginning. I remember when you got your new sails in Thailand and here you are already making repairs. You've come a long, long way in so many respects. Your videos are just fantastic - good idea to show how you get some of your shots! I've made a few videos that are just more like family videos on YT and I gained a huge respect for channels like yours that crank out these exceptionally well done and so very entertaining videos week after week. Bravo!!
I remember the Thailand episode, wow, cant believe that much time has passed
Just fantastic I’m impressed of you as a couple,sailers ,more of Amy and Matt and the world would become a better place ❤
Loved the over/under pic. I honestly have no idea how much work it takes to make these videos but I now understand a little more and just want to say thanks for the effort and the explanation of how it's done.
I love that you show "behind the Len's" some don't understand what it takes to get the shot. Great job you guys.
You know that trust is the bedrock, the foundation , of a great relationship as it is a prerequisite for respect and that is essential for friendship and love. This video is a wonderful resource for those whose relationships are struggling. I don’t think you planned it to be but in my humble opinion it is. Your touch on the world brings benefits you didn’t intend, thank you…
Well stated and absolutely true. I admire them similarly. ❤️
Amazing water and lovely shots! After six years on a small boat, I come from a sailing family, do you ever argue????? My parents lived on their boat for 13 years. My dad was really patient . But not sure I could do it.
It was well worth the effort! Spectacular shots of Florence sailing in turquoise coloured, swimming pool. Top production stuff. ❤
You make such a great team. Team work makes life so much easier and enjoyable. Keep up the good work.
Just awesome! Massive talent. The music cinematography the shots the commentary absolutely excellent.
Might need a blooper episode just for good measure?
Look what followed the Tuna in. You were lucky!
Hopefully, the crystal turquoise water of the Bahamas is visiting your dreams now, as you venture on your north Atlantic passage. Another sparkling episode Amy and Matt!
💙💙💙💙💙
That shark shot was crazy
That extra half an hour is always worth it your camera work is excellent 👌🏻 stunning shots 👍🏻
Beautiful footage, this is one of our favourite channels!
You have just won my very well considered and most prestigious award of being the best sailing channel ever. You leave every other sailing channel in your wake. 😊Sincere congratulations!
nice job, Beautiful
Nice fish, beautiful cinematography, especially the over/under. Well worth it and good to see the sharks weren't participating at that time either. Thanks always for sharing.
Sharks get such a bad rap. Reef sharks are known to be the friendliest, most relaxed sharks out there. We are not on their menu!🦈❤
Love to wake up to your beautiful videos
Fifty shades of blue.💙 Thanks for all the effort you exert to bring the most spectacular footage. 🤟 Such a special place. 🌎
From the shifting sands of Namibia to the white sands of the Bahamas, you two never disappoint! Just spectacular filming, so relaxing to watch as well. It will be so sad for your viewers when you finally get back to England (are you there yet?) I hope you never lose your sense of wonder.
Loved the behind the scenes!
Brilliant! Congratulations for achieving and sharing so much!!
Okay!! Now, I am jealous!! Thank you for sharing. Sadly though, the voyage is nearing the end.
Those over and under shots of Florence underway were absolutely awesome guys. Well worth the effort. Never seen shots like that before…absolutely incredible! A great video as always but that was an absolute stand out for us 😍⛵️
A joy, as always. Thank you so much.
Might as well relax and enjoy this last leg of your trip. No reason to rush. Thanks for the video. Sail on!
Awsome effort getting those underwater videos looked impressive
I've loved watching your videos for a few years now and they just keep getting even better. Your sailing skills and videography really are second to none. Great stuff guys, brilliant. Please don't ever stop doing this!
We sailed our 41 ft, 4 1/2 ft draft full keel ketch in The Bahamas for years. One meter under the keel is deep water.
I must tell you that your videos have to be the most professionally done that I have seen. With superb videography, to explicit storytelling, the unfolding background music. Well done my friend. Well done.
Truly magnificent cinematography and sound making this episode not only beautiful but captivating throughout this epic episode. We can't thank you both so much for bringing your life aboard Florence to us. Breath taking!
Islanders like Nappy make it happen. Thanks to all the nice and wonderful Islanders out there.
Wowsers! Magnificent photography…thank u SO MUCH 🇨🇦
Love your antics trying to get motion shots of your hull in passing. The high trust levels you to have is truly enjoyable to watch. All the best to both of you.
Great video- you are both so relaxed- videos well framed...gratuitous skate, shark & reef fish shots. A well spent 20+ minutes! Thanks so much.
Brilliant video, loved the underwater shots.
Beautiful colours, expert photography and film what a combination 👌
Spectacular story well captured and well told. Thank you!
Such an easy going video to watch all the time . Sets you as part from so many of the sailing TH-cam sailing gigs .
Water is stunning. Thank you
Cool shot! Like how fast Florence was going but yet inturbulent invisible flow.
Beautful footage. Always love the Behind the Lens feature. No way I'd trust Jen to come back for me if we were doing fly by's!! She never could resist temptation!
Those shots were almost worth risking Matt. Simply gorgeous footage.
Wow, your over/under shots are fantastic.
Those water shots were absolutely amazing!! It almost felt like i could touch the water.
Good morning Amy and Matt the colours of the water is fantastic would be nice on scuba
Outstanding video and background music! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Amy and Matt!
Rich 👋
After seeing Florence sail over Matt, I think the mystery has been solved.
Why dolphins like to swim with sailboats. 🐬🤗
Loved the behind the lens. Really creative and unique shots.
Staggering is the best word for this channel ! Bravo
Outstanding cinematography. A pleasure to watch.
Your videomaking skills are simply the best, incredible shots and editing. Thanks
No doubt you saw the shark following your tuna right as you pulled it behind your Florence.. 👍
Loved this vid ! Especially Matt talking about why he wasn’t getting in the water because of the shark !!😂😂😂😂
The barracuda was enough for me !!😂
Some lovely shots there . The shark didn't look too friendly 😊
Well, Magoo, you've done it again! Not a bad video for experts! I liked your drive-by shootings! I'd like to see that again while you are crossing the N. Atlantic! 😉
Honestly guys, I've been watching for a while now, and the production values and quality of your videos is just getting better and better. Absolutely stunning episode. Such a beautifule place.
Beautiful videography
Thanks,,, this was a great episode. Best regards from Jarle
Another great video 👍⛵⚓. Love your films and your relaxed delivery.
Wow that was cool. Thank you Matt & Amy. Those shots were good to watch. Absolutely not a waste of time Matt. The clear water looks so nice. Or like you said, a big swimming pool.👍 Thank you both.
SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Another idyllic experience. Impressive professional production. I look forward to your next instalment.
Spectacular video again! Your skill and effort in producing these leaves me in awe. Thank you.
Beautiful sailing. Wow, will watch is episode again and again.
You're mighty trusting Matt! I'd be a bit worried about meeting that large shark!
Hey! Once again you have set the bar for imagery! Fun video…thanks, Andrew
One more enchanting video. Thanks so much.
Great film with beautiful music, I enjoyed it so much. Looking forward to your Atlantic crossing....😅
Triple thumbs up bravo 👏
Stunning as always!!
So many of the solutions you have adopted are identical to what i have implemented on my own (34ft) cruising boat. I feel i could step on board Florence and simply sail off!
Great pictures. Love the show
Brilliant video guys. Under water shots of Florence are great. Glad you showed us the behind the scene filmmaking as that was going to be my first question. 👍
awesome video, really liked the under water shot as boat passed over you
Beautiful work.
I have been to the Bahamas twice many years ago. I found the same thing with the people, friendly. I would love to go back for an extended stay, preferably on a boat.
As always - the best youtube sailing videos. Absolutely magnificent.
Thanks for: 1. not posting "shorts", 2. not advertising products in your videos.
How on Earth (and water) did you get those shots at 15:09 half underwater, half above? With Florence sailing straight towards? This was stunning. This was beautiful.
Well...that was stunning to watch! Thank you💫 🌟🎉🍹🎊🌟💫
That is just next level video! The photography is supurb (as is all the rest)! The Bahamas are a very special place. So glad you got to experience them!
Smiling all the way through the video so relaxing, great job.
The detailed sail inspection information is next level. Subscribed for sure
Nice trick with the underwater shots.
That under water shot of Florence pacing bye is one of my favorite shots of all the sailing videos I have seen!! Spectacular.
WOW
Great B-Roll Florence!
Best as usual!
Cheers
albacore Tuna is good eating, well Done !
Fab film this week. The Bahamas look so ❤mind-blowingly beautiful. I was wondering how you got those shots and then all was revealed at the end. A great ‘behind the scenes’ David Attenborough move!!! Xx
😍🤞👍👍👍 GREAT JOB !!!!!
