Mocha certainly is a very adventurous, accident prone, and unique personality. I think regular claw trims might be in order for the safety of residents 😂😂😻🤗
It seems only Ivan is capable of calming down Mocha! Great to see that Finn is on the recovery process, and ready to resume soon his trainning. Go Team Hamill!! After this brief update of your current whereabouts, back to the past. Time to keep catching up with your previous adventures😀
Hey guys. Good to see Josh on the boat again. And what an adventure finding them. You forget how many islands there are round there. My kiwifruit season starting tomwind down now. We've finished night shifts now. I've got about a month of day shifts now.
Fun, fun, fun fun you guys are always having fun! The cat looks like a little terror! I guess the fish must’ve been good look like it was all gone? I have to remember take pictures of the dogs watching the cat. It’s their favorite show when you come on every week. I’m gonna write myself a note right now to try to remember to do that because it’s really fun to watch them. Until next time thank you very much wonderful videos as always.
Mocha is getting calmer by the day, the diet change has worked wonders . Unfortunately, though, she does get a bit discombobulated when we change anchorages poor thing.
Again a nice video 😊👏, that I enjoyed viewing. Good job, despite the fact that I was sad of seeing Mocha wounding Courtney 😦. Any news of Finn? Waiting the next video! Good travels sailing the world, stay safe, live long an prosper 🖖👍🍀⛵️🤗
@@TheCruisingKiwis Yes I agree, Finn has to undergo a period of rest and calm after his fantastic race. If he go too high and too soon, he will deplete his réserves of slow hight glucides, and will not be able to attend the big races of 2024, World Rawing Championship, and the Olympic Games in Paris (I think that he alteady qualified for these competitions isn’t it?). I think he is not enough learned the way to attend international meetings, the things he as to do, and the things not to do. It is Just a beginer at this high level. And what a beginer he is! Give him my best congrats, and best good vibes for the future 🛶. Many friendly greetings, stay safe, see you in the next videos. And thank YOU for these great videos. Alain
Rachel i just read the description, sorry to hear Rob eldest brother Jerry history. Superb video, always sharing with us daily chores things and in the video it looks a lot different and enjoyable than being on land in a house. Footage, editing, narrative, all is well structure doing it smooth to watch 😎. Glad to know Finn is getting better. You all are a great family You, Rob, Finn,Declan and Ivan 🔝 Wishing you all the best, keep traveling and sharing with us those moments of everything that you want to share with us through the lense, appreciate all the hard work behind each video, to share with us both channels yours and your sons, both superb ⚡️ Greetings from mexico 🇲🇽✋
Thank you very much for your kind words. We would love to visit Mexico one hopefully sooner than later. I hope you don't mind me sending you links to 2 videos you may find interesting regarding Rob's brother. Here is the first of our visit to siem reap in Cambodia. I will send the 2nd on another comment. th-cam.com/video/YTlQpp62WTU/w-d-xo.html
Kiora that little guy on that boats what's known as a topblocke hehe love people like that. Great watch guys an you know wat they say If the cat eats it lol. Keep on living my dream why don't ya 😂 💚
Wow Mocha is a little feral kitten 😅 Hopefully she will grow out of her aggressive behavior. The price of fish was incredible back here in nz all food has skyrocked ridiculous prices Hopefully change of government will bring food and fuel prices back to reality. Happy to see Finn recovery going great looking forward to following his competition rowing leading up to Olympics 😊 Thanks for another beautiful vblog Take care Safe travels Cheers from the Tron team 😊😊😊😊
Yes Mocha's a bit fiesty but very lovely too. The fish was great. The cost of living in South East Asia is incredibly reasonable here it makes you wonder why food costs so much in the west.
I agree. I have a female cat, , which I found on the stairway, and happened that she become very happy being a calm and comfortable appartement, and very quickly beloved with me. I was use of drinking during the meals (sparkling??) water ( pressurized with carbon dioxide, as for sodas, and is home maid (SodaStream system, I don’t if you know that). It happened when she was sill a baby kitten, that she jump on the table to look at I was eating, that I was opening one of these bottle, and making the characteristic ‘pshiiiiit’ sound of pressurized gaz being released. The kitten, which very close to the bottle, was very scared by the sound, and receiving droplets of cold water. She had a little jump in the air, and quickly went away. That was crazy amusing 😄. Despite that she is 13 y/o now, she still go away when she see me having in the hand one of these bottles or a can of soda, or hear the sound of the gaz released when opening it. Hopefully, she came back, because she always want to be close to me. A real lovely cat 😘. Stay safe, live long and prosper Alain from 🇫🇷
I love you hate chicken nuggets! Omg it’s so sweet how your taking care of this little feline ( I know the back story) Also looking for your children of young age and getting all communication can be difficult. Been there. Love guys!
Several minutes telling us all how well Mocha has calmed down these last few weeks and she dive bombs Courtney within hours of her arrival. I love the irony! 😀 "Which airport now?" is always asked several times here when family flies down to visit, as we are leaving to pick them up. Excellent to see Finn out on the bike slowly building up his strength. His "slowly" is, of course, our "way too quickly." At least he has a beautiful location to bike and walk! Fish delivered at anchorage. That's an entirely different take on the daily milk deliveries we got when in was a kid. But those were two very nice looking ones. I'm not sure about the local pricing, but it would have an excellent buy at my local market.
Poor Courtney didn't know what hit her, but she took the shock well. She and josh were a bit stressed at one stage when we told them of the airport issue but turned out the local ferry ran for and only for the regular flight so all good.
I had a feral cat show up at my boat once, that only ever had one name. "The Damn Cat." Lost a lot of skin through it's claws. It Nearly went swimming on more than one occasion. However one pusspuss showed up with choc cake. Enough said. Hey guys, that fish looked a lot like our Parore...you know black snapper, seaweed eating fish. What do you reckon?? Probably haven't given it a lot of thought, I guess. Yet another great episode folks. Thank you for sharing. Take care and atb. Cheers B.
Hey guys, quick suggestion, try clipping Mocha’s nails. You can do a couple at a time if necessary. Just cut the sharps tips off, will make a world of a difference when she paws at you. It can be nerve racking at first but you and Mocha will get used to it, better to start now. 😊 Edit* Saw someone else suggested this- sometimes the scratching post can make their nails sharper. Mine never used theirs either.
Hey might you ned any crew in the near future? My wife is Indonesian and we are RYA Day Skipper and Comp Crew. She loves cooking/cats and I love all things mechanical and boating. Cheers!
It was good to see Finn up and around but I could not make out what all he was saying......is he still down with Covid? I was amazed the boys weren't on more but then Ivan showed up near the end. I hope your cat wounds are healing ok, there definitely is no dull moment with you all! Take care!
Thanks guys! Gotta say I’m not a Cat fan, but we do have a cat, it doesn’t bother me so I don’t bother it, But when we first rescued it, it attacked my wife’s legs, massively aggressive.. i picked it up by the back of it’s neck and open hand smacked it so hard it actually hurt my hand, ever since we have had a perfectly behaved cat.. Wendy had to have a tetanus shot, and a course of antibiotics, (that’s how much damage it did, the bastard actually clawed her and bite her, it wouldn’t release her, it looked like she was attacked with a knife, seriously blood everywhere, that’s how i got him by the back of his neck, imagine if he did that to a child, he would have blinded them). I say Rob & Rach, raise your kitten your own way, but me personally i wouldn’t tolerate any aggression! Imagine worse case scenario, say that gentleman selling you some fish, he had his face at the cats level, if the cat attacked him and he lost an eye? He would own everything you have! Obviously don’t be cruel, just meet any aggression with twice the opposite, give the bugger a healthy fear of hurting humans, i only say this because that cat has a nasty streak…. The other one didn’t, but that one does, stamp it out of him asap! Just my opinion..
Wow Mocha is not so bad. She has calmed down massively with the diet change. She didn't attack Courntey, rather fell on her from above with her claws out to break her fall. I'm happy to say she has not drawn blood since this occasion.
@@TheCruisingKiwis the other one that sincerely unfortunately passed, that one I would be fine with, this Mocca 🧐. Personally his a different natured cat.. obviously you are ahead of time, so he may be fine now… idk.. but the rescue cat we took in wasn’t a kitten, he is a adult cat, and with his new manners is a very affectionate and spoiled cat.. we aren’t cruel people.. his treated as royal now..
watching this episode again, from another acount (the original account) of mine.. So, hello again and yup, a rethink about your feline crew member is probably needed.. Ttfn
time to declaw the feline!!!! Alternative, give it up because scratches = open wounds=infection and you live on a floating home. Not really conveniently near a hospital. What you have is a (wild cat). There is another word for it (feral?). It will never be house broken. Take care all of you and hey different folks to speak with. Very nice.... Ttfn
the cat is crazy its sad to say but you need should get her/him spayed for three reasons 1. to bring down her temperament so she stops being aggressive and 2 to stop that aggregation you have to stop it with her bloodline and 3. so you don't get a surprise litter if it's a female cat
Rachael, you need to get a squirt bottle or water gun to discipline her, you will have her look at you as if to say, "How dare you! Arrogant Human!". Then she will start to behave.
Interesting way to wind up the vid, change subject, while Courtney's still curious about her injuries. Hmmm lets just pretend that didn't happen shall we, look Rob, fish on a plate

Claw trims are a good idea. She has a clawing post but regularly takes to the walls, which I don't like.
It seems only Ivan is capable of calming down Mocha!

Go Team Hamill!! After this brief update of your current whereabouts, back to the past. Time to keep catching up with your previous adventures😀
Haha back to the grindstone. A massive enduro you are undertaking there!
Did Finn had an accident, reading he is on a recovery process?
@alaincomte5055 in guessing you missed last week's episode Alain? Here it is th-cam.com/video/_s5ZIXKvB4s/w-d-xo.html
Hey guys. Good to see Josh on the boat again. And what an adventure finding them. You forget how many islands there are round there. My kiwifruit season starting tomwind down now. We've finished night shifts now. I've got about a month of day shifts now.
Horray for the day shifts. It was great to see Josh again and to meet Courtney, who is great fun.
@@TheCruisingKiwis she certainly cooed well with being dive bombed by Mocha.
You might all want 2 wear helmuts around Mocha! Safe travels ❤
Yeah maybe. Pleased to say though mocha is getting better all the time.

Guess Mocha doesn't feel ok with the loud noises or chains... Nice to read that is getting calmer with the new diet!
That fisherman certainly looks like a pleasant and interesting character. Mocha…. Not sure about that one. ❤😂
Yeah he was way cool. Mocha will come around..
Another great day and another great video!
Thanks Rob. Short and sweet.
Again a nice video 😊👏, that I enjoyed viewing. Good job, despite the fact that I was sad of seeing Mocha wounding Courtney 😦. Any news of Finn? Waiting the next video!

Poor Courtney didn't know what hit her. Finn was able to cycle, but I thought he was doing too much too soon.
Merci Alain.
@@TheCruisingKiwis Yes I agree, Finn has to undergo a period of rest and calm after his fantastic race.

Couldn't have put it better myself Rob. He was a great character.
Looks like the fish passed the Mocha test of quality!
It sure did so we ate the rest. 😊

Yes Mocha's a bit fiesty but very lovely too. The fish was great. The cost of living in South East Asia is incredibly reasonable here it makes you wonder why food costs so much in the west.
We encountered a lot of those same jellies in the Berry Islands in the Bahamas.
Were they relatively harmless like the ones we saw?
Kitty needs to behave itself. LOL!
Much as it may not seem like it, she is getting better.
A water spray bottle directed at the unwanted cat behaviour will result in instant changes 😊
Yes we have a spray bottle to keep her off the table. You only have to show her it now and she backs down.
I agree. I have a female cat, , which I found on the stairway, and happened that she become very happy being a calm and comfortable appartement, and very quickly beloved with me.

Thanks Jim (I think?) Thankfully mocha is coming good.
@@TheCruisingKiwis well then, that is good news !
Jellyfish nightmare!
Yeah pretty harmless though.
Calico cats have an aggressive streak
She's excitable to be sure but it seems more play than aggression, eg going for Rachel's hair but not actually Rachel.
⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵
Cats have a more broad spectrum of personalities than people I think, no 2 are remotely the same.
It seems to be so. Mocha is charisma cat.
4:46, lol
Attack cat!!
There is a story in Hawai'i we're the 'Shaka 🤙' sign from... well known ➡️ fisherman ⬅️ 😊
Can you enlighten us more on that Steven?
Declaw that dang cat 😂
Yeah might have to. The good news is she's getting less frisky every day.
Indoonian for crazy-Gila, Devil-iblis, or Phyco-Psiko (Siko)? you could change the cat's name to be more fitting!! 🤣🤣
Or call her ocean for her predictability! 😊
:)

We will be getting her spayed. She's just a little young at the moment.
Oh Mocha, looks like an angle has a splash of the devil about her. Stick with her she's only young I'm sure she will calm down.
Yes she has charisma to burn!
Rachael, you need to get a squirt bottle or water gun to discipline her, you will have her look at you as if to say, "How dare you! Arrogant Human!". Then she will start to behave.
Yes we have been using one to train her off our eating and food surfaces. It works well but gotta keep handy for other events.
Interesting way to wind up the vid, change subject, while Courtney's still curious about her injuries. Hmmm lets just pretend that didn't happen shall we, look Rob, fish on a plate
Yes I was aware that it looked a little uncaring. I had ensured Courtney was OK before picking the camera up again.
Chuck the cat. Its stealing your joy.
Yeah nah
Feral cat alert!!
All good
GET RID OF THAT CAT
Yeah nah
