FYI, guys, the smaller fish are healthier.........less mercury and other heavy metals due to ocean pollution. They also taste sweeter and grill up very nicely. 😊
20.03 min..... His face is priceless wen you didn't click his bottle you left him waiting for nothing poor captain!! Anyway great video wishing you fair wind's and safe anchorages.
🤣🤣 I think I noticed that when I edited it hahah surely I clicked bottles after 🤭 thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed ☺️ cheers
You always light up the screen, oh and thanks for the dingy ride. 😜🥰
Not a bad view at all. Good on you!!
Hahah thanks Ed
❤ GR8 VID ❤ LOVED IT ❤
That was the perfect time to quote that aus actor guy, "that's not a knoife, this is a knoife!"
Captivating; exquisite cinematography, enchanting audio, breath taking views make this episode the best I have seen with respect to Utube sailing content. You both have out did yourselves on this Italian passage. Happy Anniversary and we pray more to follow. Thanks!
Aw Thankyou so much David, that’s such a great compliment to receive 💭 Thankyou, cheers 😆☺️🙌🏼
I like your compassion for the fish. 😊
I dunno how Jason manages to steer with all that naked sun baking on deck! It must be hard! lol
It’s hard work mate there’s been a few close calls 🤣🤣
@@LeadingtheEscapade I bet lmao

PS You totally left Jas Hanging with that snub of a Cheers 🍻 the poor bloke was guttered 😝 😝 😝 😝
Thanks Mick 🙏☺️ I know crazy hey! It can be completely the opposite of what we had though and very treacherous swell, we were lucky and hid away when needed which was good. A few little nooks to moor in when needed but few and far between I guess
Hahahah you’re the second one who said that 🤣 surely I cheersed him after the video 🤭
Thanks so much!
NGL, clicked for the thumb, but subbed for the content! Those white cliffs were amazing!
Hahha thanks Paul, that’s just the way we want it to work 🤭 cheers for tuning in, glad you enjoyed 🥰
Love and fish nuggets is obviously the best recipe for happyness. What else?
Hahah it sure is 😜

Italy is known for its litter. Bari is a great town my partner is from Bari! The one one thing you need to stock up on is the pasta as it’s so cheap. Enjoy your italy trip…
Yeah I totally didn’t expect it 🥲but we love Italy none the less of course!
Ahhh yessss definitely stocking up on allll the Italian food 😍😍 pasta is my favourite too!
Thanks so much ☺️
It was interesting to see Bari from the see. Friend of mine grew up there.
Oh that’s really cool! It was really cool to sail along that coastline! Wasn’t what I excepted in some spots
Not gonna lie I clicked on because of photo! But have been here before happy sailing ⛵️ 😊 happy Anniversary 🎉
Hahahah it’s works 🤣 thanks so much! Cheers 😆

The Grotto Restaurant is world famous.
So beautiful! Ahh yesss I would’ve absolutely loved to splurge and dine there if we had the money! Such an iconic restaurant 😍

@@dennispatrick4999 with any luck 🍀 ☺️
That's an AZZMAZING view!!

Great Video
Thankyou 😆🫶🏼
Thank you ✌️
Thanks Sean 🙌🏼😆
Hi Guys, Great vlog, (As Usual) Brought back great memories of our sailing trip, UK to Greece in 2019. Took a small detour and visited Polignano, We bit the bullet and had dinner at "The Grotto" As fellow Aussies (Adelaide)... have to say, A fabulous location, And so very Unique, deserves a 10/10, However food and service Not so good 6/10, and hugely overpriced, A set 4 course meal (Tiny serves) for 2 plus a single bottle of wine 420 Euro's !!! Just our experience, but left hungry...🤨
Hey guys!! Oh so glad to hear 😍 oh how cool! Yeah it’s definitely for the views isn’t it! Did you have to book far in advance or got lucky with a booking?
Wow yeah that’s expensive!! We heard it was pricey so we definitely couldn’t have afforded but you’re making me feel a little better about it 😅 😄
Hi Again J & J Thanks for your reply, We booked about a month in advance as we were sailing south down the Italian coast, we knew we would be there or therabouts, we ended up in "Crotone" and hired a car for a few days and drove to Polignano (for the dinner) and also used it ti visit Alberobello which we had always wanted to visit, Famous for its "Trulli" houses, A fascinating place and a "Must see " if down that way..
Apparently "The Grotto" is less expensive in the Off Season..
Also, Dont know if you are in "Real time" and therefore still down that way, or which way you are headed, but if intending the foot of Italy and then up the coast, a couple of good placs along the way,
Santa Maria Di Leuca has a good marina and not expensive, Easy fuel pontoon..also the anchorage right outside the marina is good. Then Crotone is a big harbour with several marina areas inside also not expensive and has a vibrant town. Next along the way, Rocella Ionica, Great marina, Easy fuel pontoon and the little restaurant does fabulous Pizza's, you order a half metre or metre !! Good luck and fair winds
@@LeadingtheEscapade
@@sailingsian2989 oh amazing!! We would’ve been there in off season, but weren’t prepared enough to book it, it was a surprise to see it that’s for sure 😍😅 I get a little slack with researching places when we visit so many places these days
Oh that’s actually great help! It isn’t real-time but in real time we actually sail over to Santa Maria do Leuca in the next week or so and planned to stay there! Looks cheap so that’s great as I know it’s quiet exposed around that area
All very helpful suggestions so Thankyou ☺️
@@LeadingtheEscapade Good stuff, well keep the vids coming, and if going that way the "Messina Strait" cn be fun but just time it right and there are no problems at all.. Cheers for the reply's
Thanks so much! We definitely will, I think we’ll pass back through the way later this year. We’ll kinds be splitting Italy up in smaller chunks crossing in and out of it haha not really the way we originally planned but that’s ok
Cheers ☺️
3:14 Suns out, buns out 😂😂
Very good video Thanks 😊
Thanks Brad 😄
Absolutely perfect very jealous 😏
Hahah don’t worry it’s not always nice 🤣
U 2 are living!❤
Thanks Paul 🙌🏼😆🥰
Good seeing you again. Be safe and I can’t wait for next week.
Thankyou!! Cheers ☺️🙌🏼
she is gorgeous
I'm glad you enjoyed the southeast coast. I live in Brindisi, if you need anything let me know
Oh awesome!! We went a few months ago in the real world, but we loved the east coast 😍 Thankyou so much! Hopefully we’ll be back there one day ☺️
@@LeadingtheEscapade hope to see you, buon vento
Thanks !
Thanks Jean 🙏☺️
Viva gli sposi !!
Enjoy
How did you spend your winter? When will sailing resume in Europe? Loved the Tremiti episode! We already had this on the radar for this summer sailing.
Hey Thomas 😆 we actually spent winter in Australia this time and got away from the cold. We were due to see friends and family and really needed to do some work to save up some money to keep us going. Thankyou!! We won’t show a whole lot of back in Australia so currently we’re catching up closer to real time which is great. The Italy content is from back in October however we stopped sailing between Dec-April so we really only have around 6 weeks to catch up on to get us closer to real time 😆
Oh that’s awesome! You’ll love it! Give us a PM on Instagram if you need any tips ☺️
Enjoyed the video ♥️♥️🥰🥰
Thanks Frits, glad you enjoyed ☺️ cheers 😆
Bella!
Wow Sailor 👍👍
Thankyou 😆
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ✨ 🎊 ✨ 🎉
The trash is like that in areas... same in Sicily. Awesome video!
Yeah a little sad to see isn’t it 🙁 thanks so Much ☺️ cheers
Unlike Sicily, on Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia the garbage is of a different type, in addition to the traditional one there is also the "human garbage" made in U.S.A.
Oh Jesus like 💩 🤣
Great video, well done
Thanks Brian 🙏😆
Bari I Love you
Very cool guys!
Thanks Trev
"I felt bad..." 😂
awsome episode guys xx
Thanks Jonathon ☺️🙌🏼
T&A always works!
Gets the clicks 🤣 hopefully the content makes people stay 😁

Your photography is awesome. Thank you for bringing us with you!
Thanks so much Andy ☺️
Bravi, bei video
Fun video
Thankyou 😆☺️
Simon says…….. gash.
Absolute amazing video from start to finish, but I still don’t see davits …..😏
Hahaha one day Rick…one day 😉 maybe not for a while though 🤣 that shits expensive hahahah we’ll dream for now
Happy anniversary
Thanks George ☺️
❤❤❤❤
Awesome stuff guys! How are the drone rules in the region for sub 250 gram mavic mini?
Hey Dave 😆 we haven’t had any problems yet, there’s obviously just some no fly zones near airports etc. but mostly we’ve been able to fly ours! We have the mavic pro 1
I’m interested in what you do about visas to allow you to cruise. As a Brit, once upon a time I was free to cruise the EU med for as long as I wished. Now, I suspect similar to yourselves, I am subject to a 90 in 180 day rule and so ‘free cruising’ is no longer possible with ‘duck-outs’ to Montenegro, Turkey etc. necessary. Do you have to do the same or have you found a solution to this stay limit??
Ahhh yeah that would’ve been so hard for you guys! We’ve never known any different I guess. At the start we really did The by the books but we were also in the area where we had turkey, Croatia, Montenegro etc. But to be honest, we just don’t check in all the time now. It’s naughty, yes, but every cruiser we speak to tends to do it. Also places like the Balearic Islands tend to turn you away and even if coast guards come to check papers they don’t check your passport stamp. So we’re not currently checked it. But we have just got word that countries like Spain, Italy etc are doing almost like a crew list now without stamping your passport and you can stay up to a year. We’ve had friends of friends do it and show the document they got given, so we have other friends about to test this out in Mallorca and see if it works. We’ll report back and let you know how it goes as if they get it to work we’ll try the same. Also malta already have done this for quiet some time
Many thanks @@LeadingtheEscapade.
VERY interesting that they are not too strict on the stamping in/stamping out, but I guess this only works if you sail in, sail out. If you where to fly in (and gain a stamp), you're 'in' and so need to be stamped out to not break the 90/180 rule. I guess you'd have to fly in, get stamped-in, formally depart by yacht and get stamped-out, and then go 'more nomadic' on your return (by yacht) as you describe.
In researching this 90/180 day rule for a job I had which used to have me in Italy each week, I learnt Italy can fine you up to EUR10,000 for a 90 in 180 day infringement. That's a bit eye watering!
And what do you mean by "places like the Balearic Islands tend to turn you away"? You mean they deny you entry and you are required to sail on???
Dresm sky driving
Hey Jason are you the same Jason sailing katana with Kristin
In Australia
Hey Gary, haha nope that must be another Jason 🤣
Unfortunately in Southern Italy it is pretty common to see trash all over the place. I live in the South for about 5+ years and that was the one thing that I disliked...that and the stray dogs everywhere. I do agree with some of the others about the journey you take us on in your vidoes...very enjoyable to watch.
Yeah it’s pretty sad isn’t it 😢 yeah I always feel sad for the stray’s but I would prefer them to be around than culled like they do in places like TUNISIA too🥲
Oh Thankyou so much! That’s so great to hear and I’m so glad you’re enjoying 🥰
"Trash" ??? Luckily not like Streets of Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia, the real garbage to be ashamed of is that, but you american are very good at pretending nothing happened.
"Stray dogs everywhere"🤌🤌🤌 " trash all over the place" 🤌🤌🤌???????????? Your comment is absolutely ridiculous and false, you are the typical superficial and ignorant american.
I'm going to ask what a lot of people would consider a dumb question, when you guys are sailing and bouncing around from country to town and such, is a passport not required or is it?
Not a dumb question at all, I guess if you haven’t done it you won’t necessarily know 😀 so you definitely need a passport, however a lot of the countries in Europe are part of a system called the Schengen visa so once you’re stamped in you can move freely between those countries without having constantly get stamped in and out. But I think you still technically need to have a passport if you know what I mean, obviously flying wise you would need to still present it. People within the EU have even more freedom than people outside of the EU where they don’t have the 90/180 day time limit like we do
@@LeadingtheEscapade thanks for answering that, much appreciated.
@andrearin8383 welcome 🤗
Risky whatee’s?
what happened to the rip in the main sail?
Haha still there unfortunately, we actually sailed the rest of the season with the rips. You can’t notice them as much when the stanchion isn’t leaning on the rip opening it up
😃👍👍👍❤
Thanks Tom ☺️
So what year was your anniversary?🎉
This was our 7 year anniversary but Jase took his time to make it official so really it’s closer to 8 years 🤣
@@LeadingtheEscapade He must have had very poor eye sight back then. Glad it has improved. Cheers!
😂😜
What was the cost of the boat?
Hey Deno, we paid 67,000 euro for our boat and then have some some upgrades over the past 2 years on it 😆
Miss J can i ask what cameras you use please 🤔
Hey Tony, we use the iPhone 13 Pro now for 95% of our footage 😃 crazy hey! But it’s great! Obviously doesn’t do mechanical depth of field it’s a little more digital so sometimes you can notice some flaws but alongside working in a MacBook it’s awesome for granger in footage over etc with airdrop 😆
Got to say it does give great video's 😀
@@tw1972 glad you think so ☺️ we’d love a Sony A74, but that will come when we can afford it 🤣🤣
Wow she's beautiful as u can get do u have any sister's lol
🤣🤣🤣 just a brother? 🤣
@@LeadingtheEscapade that’s unfortunate. What a lucky man to be trapped on a boat with a beautiful lady like that.
Hahah Thankyou 😆
@@LeadingtheEscapade your very welcome
October??
Yeah it was in October last year ☺️ but we’ll be much closer to real time very soon, as we didn’t sail between December and April. So we’re only about 6 weeks behind in sailing content now, catching up to real time ☺️
@Leading the Escapade lol ok make sense now beautiful place isn't it ,fair winds &following seas
Thankyou ☺️
Why do you call it "down the coast" when you're sailing at sealevel all the way, and there's little tidal rise and fall?
By down I mean south 😊 must be an Australian term 🤣 cuz it’s super normal in Australia
No bikini shots ? Cmon' man
Clearly didn’t watch the whole episode 🤣
Хер поймёшь её произношение. Wish them luck only.
Fingernails Jason
Bikini vlog plz
This is a discrase to genuine sailers.and a disgrace to TH-cam
How about you’re a disgrace for writing something so horrible on someone’s video, maybe think before you speak/write about the effect you can have on people
If you took a chance to watch our other video’s before making such a quick judgment you would know we are genuine sailors. Just because we don’t race doesn’t mean we’re not sailors….We’ve sailed through 10 countries, living aboard a sailboat for 2 years full time now.
Enough with the clickbait. Try some sailing instead.
Lol you clearly haven’t watched the episode 😂🙃
@@LeadingtheEscapade skimmed it. Too much talk not enough sails. You ain’t the only channel click baiting for views but who cares what I say anyways.
Another amazing episode. Great photography, very informative and interesting narration. Lucky it was warm and the sun was shining on you.😊 As we all know it’s not always plain sailing but a bit of plain motoring when you are on passage. Keep the smiles and episodes coming you guys are the best.😊⛵️👍
If it was all sailing and no talking people would also find that boring. There has to be a balance of everything. If you follow our channel and like us then you may find what we talk about interesting or informative, of course there is more talking in some episode’s and more sailing in others, but if you want to watch more sailing you should probably find some race sailors to watch instead. Clearly we’re not for you 🤷🏻♀️ No one else is complaining about what we’re doing so 👍🏼
Hey Peter, thanks so much, glad you enjoyed 😆☺️ hahah very true 🤣 cheers 😄
Let the girls free.
Wish Sailing Yaba MP showed as much skin on their channel 🍑
