This episode we visit Noosa Heads, take the Noosa North Shore Ferry across to Teewah Beach where we test Wendy's anxiety and the visit Kenilworth for some delicious snacks.
Courageous effort with a big van 1st time and always learning Yes 18-20 psi for soft sand especially with a big van,,,,,, Did really well getting that far not being in 4WDL .... Its great on the harder sand hahah Good Vid guys
Well done Legends on your vids. Lucky that tide didn't come in too quick, Wendy would have flipped right out! Right, fill us in with Wendy's accent. Loving your adventures.
Wow I am so jealous- I am considering doing this full time- my wife and I have had so much stuff happen to us with family losses with covid and cancer. It’s only hitting us now.
Hey Jim, just a bit of advice, I would cut down or remove the front mudflaps as they will wear through the stone stomper eventually if they remain in contact with it.
If they're LT tyre construction 20 would be fine and 15 quite acceptable. 60kmh when towing is also fine on a good beach until it isn't. Lower pressures and lower speed is a better solution. It would take 4 extra minutes to do 20km at 50kmh but give you more time to stop for the unexpected as well as keeping tyre temperature down. Your Zone is a top setup, certainly the best of the big vans for beach work.
Wendy needs to learn how to drive a 4x4 towing a van on the beach and anywhere else in fact . What would you do if hubby couldn't drive for some reason? Also that might stop you from freaking out in the passenger seat. Doesn't the fridge have a lock for travelling?
@@mrjimwrongwaywend I'm not just making an idle comment, she really does need to be able to get you guy out of a not so good situation if it arises. Just an element of safe travels
Mr Jim can you please give me the measurement of your stone stomper where it joins to the caravan going under the drawbar and perhaps a pic of where it’s attached to the van Getting our Sojourn in a couple of months and would like to order ours Thanks mate
Greta video guys. Enjoyed it ❤️
Thanks 😊

Hahaha
It's Canadian but she's been here 42 years
Way to many 4 wheel drives on these lovely beaches Looks like a freeway!!
Yeah I was surprised how busy it was

Yeah life tough sometimes so you got to do it while you can

Yeah I think I’ll take them off when we have the stone stomper on
Thanks for the tip
Your go to pressure should start at 20psi… then lower if required
She’s a pretty heavy rig 25 works most of the time

Yeah I think I have to fake an injury so she will
Yeah you think a van fridge would have a lock but it doesn't

Don't worry she knows how
Done it before 😉
@@mrjimwrongwaywend cool

Getting our Sojourn in a couple of months and would like to order ours
Thanks mate
Will do next time we hook it up. It stays on the roof of the car unless we’re on the dirt
@@mrjimwrongwaywend thanks mate
Love the videos telling your story, soon we’ll be able to start ours
@@mrjimwrongwaywend we would also appreciate these measurements for the same reason, also the distance from van to support pockets. Thanks in advance.
Doing a bit of dirt next week so I’ll get the measurements for you then
What an adventure guys! Do you recall the site number you ended up at?
It was about the middle of area 7
@@mrjimwrongwaywend thks guys. Was the underbody protection you had fitted just the extra mudflaps and the Stone Stomper?
Yeah
We difficulty following your exciting travels due to either being too far from your microphone or traffic/wind 😢
Keep on trucking 😎
Yeah I know but we don't script or pre plan we just grab the go pro when something happens 😆
Was the cruiser in 4wd low when you hit the beach?
No it didn't look that soft until we go down the hill. All part of the fun 🤩
Hi Jim,
How is the van going? Have you had any issues?
It's great only a switch that hadn't been programmed and I've blown the Anderson plug fuse
