I met your mom years ago in the Victoria airport . I was on my way to see my daughter in England & she was on her way with boat boat parts to see you in Thailand (?) She shared your plans & your Utube name & I’ve been following you ever since. Thanks for sharing your adventures ❤
We moved aboard this weekend and I want to thank you Ben and Ashley for inspiring us to chase after this beautiful life on the water. We would have never thought it’d be possible without watching your videos every weekend for the last three years. 💜
@@terryandhopethank you for asking! Yes, we are vlogging. I’m not sure why my comment is no longer here that I made from my other channel - Owl Spirit Reiki.
I stay in port edward south africa. Any canned foods rusts. What i do is put the tins in sealed plastic bags(ziplocks). It workes perfectly. The bags can be used over and over and if any foods leaks it leaks in the bags. With every bag I put a square of paper towels with it. Works awesome to keep it dry. If you want any leavy veggies to stay fresh in the freezer. I use the ziplock bags with a dry paper towel with it. Can last a long time. Works awesome. Good luck and I love watching you guys. ❤
I love the kids in the bucket on a boat in the water at the end of your vid. I used to fill 5 gal buckets and rubbermaid storage containers when mine were tiny and they LOVED it so much.
Love watching u guys! u explain everything without whining about it. It is what it is! Love seeing the kids jump off the boat with such trust and joy!! Safe travels always!!
Hey guys I want to tell you that the respect that you give to each other is beautiful and the happiness you portray on the channel I wish all could be as lucky, I recently was accused of a crush on Ashley because I watch so much but developed into a full blown argument but I really wish all could have the happiness you two have!
Watching you guys. And I get to see you stay calm and in control of your emotions and not panic ever. Really is inspiring. Oh yeah. Ben ..I think you need to write a book on repair and boat maintenance. You r so eager to fix and solve any problems .. great work. And the two of you are such a great team. You both are such a great sailors. How truly a joy to watch. Thank you. 😊
In the countries I've sailed, if you politely ask at a fire station or estacion de bombas (still like that one), for a bit of used fire hose they've always given me some and usually too much. I give the rest away as anti-chafe.
The kids are blooming and the phrase that fits best is ..Like Ducks to water... It may be a a duff connection or a minute bit of terminal corrosion to the back of youre depth instruments display.. Thats the problem with low power signal connections .. especially over time. Good work round till you can check or replace ...though it could still be duff ... the cact the LCD - - - indicats its getting power and the display isn't damaged..🤷🏻♂️ Looks like the Pacific heat bubble of el Nino is about to collapse this year .. switching to el Ninia so expect some instabillity in the Coastal Pacific areas while it rolls over.
It's sooo nice, grandma time for the kids:-) I love your kids , they are sooooo cute and smart. Thank you for sharing your boating life with us! Ben you have such a wonderful voice that you could be a narrator in any documentary movie:-) Ashley you are an amazing mom, Lots of hugs for all of you from Calgary:-)!
We are catching back up with you guys. Been in Ukraine for approx 2.5 months and have been busy. We honestly missed seeing you and the kids. They are growing up so fast. I love seeing you both in action, as sailors. It is funny how you both exude sailing skills in such a nonchalant, passive kind of way. You make it look easier and you handle the "sailing" issues with solid solutions. Hey Mom, it is nice seeing you out on the water enjoying the sea live with the grand-kids.
Guys guys, please have a word with Brian from Delos, they need a Noah 55 desperately, hope you saw there episode and there dilemma. Your architect is amazing and I am surprised he hasn’t pointed them to Wahangari New Zealand for there alu build. Fair winds and following seas ❤️
as someone who cant sleep too... its def hard when doing anything not at home.. we will go camping for a week an ill get maybe 8hrs a sleep whole week. ill have to try this out!
This clip in the night with the rain and thunderstorm brings back memories ..dark clouds, in the middle of the pacific ocean .. it was an experience many years ago..u have a better boat, but be prepared as much.
Thank you so much for this! My daughter and son i Law have a wee one and I will show them this. We had four and you CAN do this! Have an adventure even in a squall! It’s all an adventure. We’re in calgary,Ab but sail on the coast 2-3 times a year and this is the absolute best example of how to live a family life! My brother and sister i law the same, they sailed to NZ with their kids and stayed. Keep the adventure and sailing going guys, we think you’re awesome! ❤️❤️🇨🇦
Bon Voyage guys. Stay safe, thank You for sharing Your amazing adventures with us. Regards from Cape Town South Africa. Should You wish to sell your broken compass, I would love to buy it as a Momento of Your travels. (It would be the closest I would come to owning a yacht !) 😂😂
Happy to hear that you guys are doing more cruising and purchasing a new boat!!❤️🔥 There must be something in the water 😂😂😂 I discovered this channel in 2020, you were the first channel to introduce me to the cruiser community, amazing how there are so many down to earth people living the dream. Much Love, been a real pleasure to watch your family grow 🙏🥰🥰🥰
The cleat with the stripped out stud is probably aluminum and the stud, stainless steel. No dissimilar metals are exempt from galvanic corrosion. When we build pumping stations in brackish water conditions, we even isolate 304 SS from 316 SS to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Hola! What app are you running on those two iPads to display the NMEA data? Maybe do a vid of the configuration details? Amazing channel! Looking forward to watching the S.W. passage!
My wife and I are doing this next year. Between selling our house, our business, and all our belongings we should have about $300k USD in cash. We plan on buying a mono sail boat as we are just 27 and 28 and have no kids. We want to spend roughly $50k on a yacht and save the rest. We are already preparing by dehydrating food and leftovers to bring with us, everything has about a 30 year shelf life when dehydrated.
you guys are the best, your real, you explain, you love each other , some of the others I watch are all about their bodies and not sailing. keep on your the BEST
Seems like I just start watching an episode and boom it's over. Love you guys so much wish I could have done that when I Was working in the patch instead of pissing it all away and I had alot to piss away, what fool I was......
I, for one, am content that you're following Capt Trevor Hansen of Next Sailing Adventures and his evaluations of the Balance Yachts. Priceless info. and talking the same language. Thanks Trev. ☝❤
You rock! Stay cool. You two. Thanks for sharing. It really helps my mental health to receive your experiences. To see and experience as much as possible through your life's work. Thank you.
😮 You mean to say sailing isn't all swimming in calm blue seas and spending some time under the sun 😎 laying on pure white sand can be FUN. 💡But, could get rather old quickly. 😊
10:58 In Georgia 🇺🇸 children under a certain age can fish without a license; but, if they catch something and you have no license, then you best be telling them how to not showing how😊
Hey Guys, love the channel! Do you guys have plans to visit Australia on your second lap? You came so close last time but you skipped us. We are way more fun than those pesky kiwis 😂😅
No comparison, Nahoa immerses themselves into the cultures of countries, that’s why I enjoyed their early episodes so much, now with the kids, who are absolute priority, it’s a little different, as you’d expect it to be. They live their own race so to speak, more authentic, and Nz can’t wait to have them there for the boat build. I’m not a kiwi, just read the comments to get the gist.
So I’m sitting on the back of my Lagoon 400 in Thailand watching and during an ocean “B” roll I heard seagulls, on the open ocean ? Nope then I noticed I have birds on my boat, so I went back to see if you edited in seagull chirps, yup you did. Today I sucked up a mooring line in my propeller, stopped the motor dead, so I changed motors and the belt blew, not a good day. To further my predicament my mast is off while the rigging is getting replaced. Neither motor, no sail, 20 knots, 1/2 nm offshore and getting blown onto Phuket, time to drop the anchor and fix stuff. REALLY !!!!!!!!!
grab the news sometime an American couple had thier boat stolen by 3 escaped convicts they found the boat and convicts and the boat Americans gone just blood on board I think from Granada I think that's the name. safe sailing
Great video! The end of March is right around the corner and I'm so excited for you all. Will you be bringing a person aboard to help you cross the Pacific?
Hey, please make sure to put something like "#ad" "sponsorship" etc in the video for your sponsorship segment at 7:40 - if you don't do that, you can get into all sorts of trouble for undisclosed advertising. Even if it's maybe not against the law in Canada (i wouldn't know), it is a problem in various countries where the TH-cam videos are shown (i.e. Germany) and so at the very least, YT is obligated to take down videos or restricting them if someone reports it
Have a safe trip across the Pacific to new Zealand. Do you think you will travel to Australia as well or not... we have been having alot of storms here in Australia this summer .
Hi guys Great video as always. Really informative. On your new boat are you going to use the same aircon ie Mabru ( I think that’s what you use)? Paul and Sandra
Awesome that you are getting Bohdi waterproofed at such a young age, that should give you a little peace of mind, next up bye bye diapers! Let him pee over the boat he will like that 😉❤🤙

Enjoy & smooth sailing plus fair winds. I usually sleep so peacefully during a storm, but I see that won't be happening on a boat. Take care.

So cool watching Bodhi, swimming with his daddy! 😊

Great episode 👏 👌 hello from Tennessee 🇺🇸
Watching willow operate her fishing rod, she’s obviously got talent, maybe watching Daddy fish. They are very cute kids.
you guys are the best, your real, you explain, you love each other , some of the others I watch are all about their bodies and not sailing. keep on your the BEST

Your kids are remarkable. We just love em. I’m not sure about the tea, but you guys are the epitome of laid back.
Great video guys.
What kind of fish were they with the lighted eyeballs???
Tarpon
Have a great trip guys!
Thanks!
When you get that new 55’ , I sure hope you sail it thru our Northwest Passage. 🇨🇦

Great news! I’ll be here to watch every episode.
Again, excited for your next adventure!! As always, thank you for sharing your true authenticity!! Bon voyage!!❤
Keep a bamboo pole for depth check and push off if needed! This was a nice video. Glad you’re leaving the Carib with increasing violence there.
You rock! Stay cool. You two. Thanks for sharing. It really helps my mental health to receive your experiences. To see and experience as much as possible through your life's work. Thank you.
Very real description of how it is!
Wow, the Melbourne Moran's have that sort of money? I am stunned. My Mother inlaw grew up next door to some of there ancestors in Richmond.
great vid really enjoyable, keep safe guys.
Oh yeah I shared your channel with my freedom channel for tips from you guys on starlink
Just noticed your bananas, when travelling you should buy them green as possible so they lost the trip.
😮 You mean to say sailing isn't all swimming in calm blue seas and spending some time under the sun 😎 laying on pure white sand can be FUN. 💡But, could get rather old quickly. 😊
I know that you won’t have much time for one of my favorite cruising countries, Panama. Enjoy what you can and get ready for Costco!
love the baby swiming

@3:52 a fresh water rinse on the bright side eh?

A LOT OF CRAZY PEOPLE IN THE OCEAN !!! WITH THE KIDS ON BOARD I WOULDN’T SAIL AROUND THE WORLD……. JUST SAIL WHERE IT IS SAFE !!!!!
Hope you guys have safe trips can't imagine the strees if something would happen out at sea with kids
That looked like Anegada! Yea not a place I'd wanna be without a depth sounder
Good luck you guys!!
Great video! The end of March is right around the corner and I'm so excited for you all. Will you be bringing a person aboard to help you cross the Pacific?
You guys are true sailers the rest of the sailing channel just copy each other and hardly sail love your channel

Hello From Greece ...!!!
The O'Kellys last video showed they were in your area. I was hoping to see a joint video with you all joining up. I guess not. 😢
How do you keep your babies from falling in the water?
Baby netting
@@SailingNahoa, I "GASPED" when I saw "BODHI" taking to the water !👍💪
You have numerous videos related to fishing. How much does your fishing effect your food budget ?
Thankyou 😊
Thankyou 👍
should get one of those head lights to keep hands free
Ben doesn’t have to do yoga as long as he keeps bending and crawling into nooks and crannies to fix the boat over and over again 😂
Haha. Some days I don't understand why I'm so sore....
@@SailingNahoa oh just wait another 20 years 😖
Hi guys
Great video as always. Really informative.
On your new boat are you going to use the same aircon ie Mabru ( I think that’s what you use)?
Paul and Sandra
Where are you guys? no vid for 3 weeks??
Thanks for the tea recipe.😂
You guys are awesome . My favorite for sure.. cant wait to see your second circumnavigation😅
Awesome that you are getting Bohdi waterproofed at such a young age, that should give you a little peace of mind, next up bye bye diapers! Let him pee over the boat he will like that 😉❤🤙
Love your family❤
Wouldn’t it be fun to sail with Johnny Depp? 😁
Take Kefir yoghurt before going to bed!
I have always wanted to do this (sail), but time has gotten away from us...do you this 60 is to old to sail, or just stick to a motored boat ????
tomato is acidic so the can probably functions a battery. Dont put cans in the bilge of your Al boat
Very cool ☀️🌴
