Sailing Whitehaven Beach in Australia 🇦🇺
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ย. 2024
- By far, one of the most incredible sailing experiences from our Aussie Adventure. We sail our 50ft Jeanneau Sun Odyssey Yacht Tucana to Whitehaven Beach, voted the World's BEST BEACH in the world. Situated off the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland, Australia, the silica sand is so pure and white, it's almost blinding! This is Boat Life down under. ⛵️

Thank you Adrian!! And welcome aboard! ⚓️⛵️
You two are building core memories together that will last a lifetime.
Kristina is really the best when it comes to story-telling! Enjoy your life, my friends! :)
🥺 Thank you Knofi ❤️
This channel is one of my favorite channels to watch bc of you two and the location you are in. I will probably never see the islands that you travel to, so it makes me that much more excited to watch every episode you put out. Thank you both very much for making this channel and for being honest and showing your mistakes. It’s funny to watch but a great learning experience for the viewers.
Thank you Frank for your kind words! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the journey. I’m constantly laughing while editing the videos too, so funny! 😂 Enjoy our latest episode today and can’t wait to hear what you think. 👌⛵️
Your channel just keeps getting better and better.
Thanks so much Kip 😊❤️ Nice to hear that! Working really hard ☀️
Your videos make my Sunday mornings a delight. Looking forward to hearing about your plans for further afield adventures.
I follow 10-12 yachting blog’s for at least 2 years and that video was undeniably the most amazing seascape I’ve ever seen 💜.plus Your editing is superb and especially aerial photography. Wishing you both happiness and safe passage,will be following with pleasure.
another great episode to relax to on a Sunday
Hi guys, top of the top tier editing! Really enjoyed this episode. Thanx for the share!
Fantastic.
Love your videos Kristina and John, you tell a beautiful story and love following your adventures.
Cheers Mark 🙂❤️ Thanks for being here with us ✨
Cheers guys!
You sure WILL LOOK BACK & WONDER WHERE THE TIME HAS GONE!!! I'm soon 2b 66 & IT seems just a couple days ago I turned 65! Enjoy Every Moment!!!
What an incredible place! Thank you for bringing us along.
I'm loving the way it's all put together and loving the vibe. Another quality episode 😃
With love from Russia! You are amazing! Люблю вас!)
Another great episode this week.That beach looked amazing.🎂
awesom vid guys ... you really are living the life at the moment! ... long may it continue!
Sailing Topless is tradition in the Whitsundays...
Don't break tradition G 😝
Haha!
@@KristinasTravels xo 😘
My favorite episode yet. I loved it. Please keep posting!
Hey guys, love the vids. My wife and I sit back and reminisce when we were cruising around the islands. If you have time, north end of Hook Island there is a bay called Mantaray Bay. Great snorkelling as long as it's not blowing a northerly and if you go look out for George the maori wrasse.
This girl isn't living. She is avoiding living. Where are her children? She is on a path to extinction and trying to glorify her personal tragedy in order to lure in other unsuspecting dupes.
I'm so jealous. Damm look at that sand.. not just the sand everything. So beautiful
Absolutely pristine! ❤️
Keep them coming! Glad you plan on keeping it up, who wants to have a normal land life anyway?!
And John where’s the facial hair!
They just keep coming - and that is fantastic videos. Looking forward to next week’s already.
good morning crew, have just completed some very serious binge watching and have finally caught up. love the channel and all of the shared adventures, i can only dream..... well done xx
soo envious of you guys making the best of times at the sea.
the view is gorgeous and its soo pleasing to see and experience this journey.
it takes courage guts and a John(who fixes everything) to go out on such an adventure.
how do you guys manage, when get mad at each other in the middle of nowhere 😄😄
love you both and your content ! great to watch !
Wooaww 🙆♂️
Your videos keep getting better every time!
wow great video, new sub great narration, we are in the first stages of getting a cat and cant wait to get out there
Welcome aboard! Sounds absolutely amazing -- congrats on your new journey!! YAY!
Great episode.
Thanks for sharing
Life is good ~
Absolutely bloody beautiful. 🍻
Good form on the vid and excellent form on the drone catch!
Great work as always guys, sailing tip.... Try "opening the leech" on your mainsail by reducing your boom vang load. Do the same for the Genoa by sliding the deck cars aft a couple of notches.
Twist is your friend just like those flaps on a plane.
Henry's leech twist is much better! Have a look at your footage.
Ohh interesting observation! I think we were on a different point of sail from Henry as we can point higher. From memory, I believe we were close hauled, hard on the wind 😊
@@KristinasTravels Reply from the author 😊🙂🤩🥰 Firstly and foremost, only some observations from the small amount of sailing footage. Just my 10 cents worth! You guys are doing great! Most certainly you were on a close hauled course and Henry was broad reaching however the principal remains the same. The twist of the leech on all points of sail will have a large affect in the feel of the helm (weather helm or leehelm). If the boat is tending to round up into the wind when a gust hits perhaps try a little more twist. Might even gain some boat speed as well 😉
Another technique is to shift the mainsail traveller car to windward and ease the mainsheet. This induces less downward pressure on the boom enabling more natural twist.
Tell John to think all the back to the Wright bros and their twist wing and how it generated lift and efficiency along with the speed. How does the wing change shape as speed increases? His brain might explode so film it! 🤣
@@charliedeanbott Sooo, you have sailed before? Haha!
Yes do it round the world it's tough bloody tough at times. End of the day You'll regret not testing yourself your boat and your hearts dream!
Marty cheers n beers
Saludos Kristina from Mexico , love your videos, good content.
Wonderful episode as always kristina
Thank you so much for your support always Mik! Appreciate it 🙏😊
Классное видео 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉
You guys have such an amazing life. I only hope to be able to experience it one day.
love it guys. Living the dream 100% done the right thing. Keep it up ( Slightly jealous Pilot )
Just found your u tube channel you have a new fan on board from the states
Hey Ted!! 👋🏽 Welcome aboard mate ☀️🇺🇸
Had a very uncomfortable night in Tongue Bay also. Enjoyed watching you for the first time. Subscribed.
Cheers Peter! Welcome mate ☺️🙂❤️
So do you still call this time of year winter? Looks pretty summary to me! I wish our winters were like this - it looks fab and your videos are great :-)
Keep having fun!
Hey Andrew, Yeh! This is what winter looks like in the Whitsundays 🙂🙂 it’s beautiful!
Thanks for the reply… I always thought you called this time of year in Oz the summer! I remember having Christmas in Qld many years ago and thinking it odd to be eating roast Turkey and all the trimmings wearing shorts and a T shirt!!
@@andytaylor97 haha! You’re right! This was filmed during winter here in Aus ☺️☀️
Being new to sailing a tip for you both when picking up or dropping a mooring line keep your arm out pointing at the line so the Captain can aim for it or avoid it. Same for the anchor if you ever get it hooked upas you are pulling in the line point towards where the anchor chain or line is going till it is vertical while the captain drives forward to get above the object that you looped around with the wind direction changing or are hooked on. Apart from that keep up the content as it is exploring Australia like I would but freedom to travel is not there yet.
Goodmorning guys from Melbourne where at present its just 13C but going to make 23C so not as nice as where you are. I was amazed that there were so few vessels at Whitehaven beach as when we were there 4yrs back on boat out of Harvey Bay, there were heaps of boats, a seaplane & heaps of people but I suppose this is the result of COVID so enjoy your freedoms whilst you can & you both certainly look like you are having anabsolute ball. Kristina, you maay like to try Bushman fly & insect repellent as we found it to be the best to give you worry from annoying insect bites. You guys are certainly enjoying yourselves & getting better at sailing all the time. Will be interested in hearing your next plans & hope it will not be a return to everyday life as it was before. Take care & love your videos.
Nice
Great stuff
Great vid!
Can I time warp like you guys? 9:27am, 18 minutes later it's still 9:27am! ... how do you do it? Magic??!! :)
That moment 6:22 you thought you couldn't love Krsinta's banter any more then you find out she's a Counter Strike gal O.o
Wow
Hey the Whitsundays are fantastic sailed there on a catamaran years ago. good to see your new line
Bags because your ropes were bloody messy
Oh - it’s magic isn’t it!!
I shouldn’t laugh, but you’re right, they were bloody terrible 🤣🤣
I often wonder what it would be like to spend the rest of my days on a sailing or motor yacht. I spent 20 years in the Navy with about 14 of it at sea. I guess its different if you're running things?
Good Video. Memphis USA
Cheers so much Ernest ❤️
Future plans, GO! Do not look back!
When you walk in shallow water you drag your feet on the sand so sting rays can hear you and they move away from you stepping on them , stay safe !
Hi guys, great vid again, so pleased to see you are catching some fresh fish. Another question, how accurate are you finding the weather or wind predictions? Are they mostly accurate? Keep up the good work!
Hey Chris! Interesting question!! Keep them coming, because they give me ideas and I might even include the info in my next video!! 👌😉 We actually found the wind forecast to be slightly off. It was generally a little windier than what was predicted 🙂🙂
@@KristinasTravels Hi Kristina (and John), I really do appreciate your prompt reply. I’m your old mate from Adelaide who has been sending a few comments since you started the sailing journey. Good luck moving forward….. Chris G
It takes a special kind of woman to pull off the water wings look ;-)
Hahaha 🤣
Fantastic intro and narration. Bugger news presenting, when you are ready for a career, think about “producer”
Great work !!!
If you think Tongue Bay was rolly, just be thankful you didn't stay overnight at Whitehaven. Lovely beach but as an overnight anchorage it leaves a lot to be desired.
Does Henry have a channel? I want to see a tour of that catamaran, or at least know the model?? Thanks!
Hay
No he doesn’t!! 🥺🥺
But it’s a Simpson Woodwind 30 ✨
It's not every woman that can pull off the water wings look that well ;-)
Haha 😆 I must admit, I had to look up what water wings are 🤣
Did he sell the Catamaran.?
He did!
I want to buy it: be the next owner if you have any contact details.
SO please updates on your next adventure. Yacana is now for sale??
Tacana. oops
Hey Peter, we’ve share our plans with Patreons for the moment but all will be revealed on YT in due course 🙂
Hi guys
Great videos, I see you are sell the yacht, are you continuing or have you decided to go back to land?
Hey Clark, we’ve shared our plans with Patreons for the moment but all will be revealed on YT in due course 🙂
I notice Tucana is now up for sale.
Has something gone awry?
Heyya! All is good 😊 We’ve shared our plans with Patreons for the moment but all will be revealed on YT in due course 🙂 Hope you’re having a great week ☀️
Hello I spotted Tucana on the market are you upgrading?
Hey Stephen, we’ve shared our plans with Patreons for the moment but all will be revealed on YT in due course 🙂
Your next boat Lagoon 450 Lol.
🙊
yes and then they could spend a year or two fixing bulkheads - see parlay revival
Maybe a Outremer or Leopard or another South African cat as they make some of the best. I have a Fountaine Pajot Mahé and would recommend it. It's a dual owners version and faster than their other cats as it is only 5 tonne. André
Thanks for sharing your adventure and if you want to beat those insects, load up on B Complex Vitamins, your skin will smell a little funny, but it's better than insect repellent.
Ohhhh this is a good tip!!! 😱😱😱 Thanks David, I’d try anything at this point ☺️🙏
@@KristinasTravels My experience has been, it will take a week or so before you can do away with the insect repellent. A mate put me onto this for fishing in the tropics, because the fish can smell insect repellent on a bait, so if you use repellent you may as well stay home. So we start taking it a week before we head off. Good luck with it Kristina.
Nice video, but hold off on the best beach in the world until you make it to Lucky Bay, Esperance, Western Australia 👍
Can’t wait ☺️☺️🙏💗‼️
Love your videos, been obsessed for a while now. Just wondering why you change so often the title & thumbnail of the video. Wouldn't that mess up the algorythm? Also works a bit confusing since i thought you uploaded two videos in a day and I missed one. :)
Oppps! Sorry, just playing with a few settings, I’m actually trying to get my head around the algorithm to be honest. When I change the photo I was seeing if it impacts the views! haha!! But maybe I’m messing it up 😬
I would love to know what type of catamaran that is please? I'm looking at getting one.
It’s a Simpson woodwind 30ft. Sorry bout the late reply
What app do you use for Anchor Monitoring?
Hey Guys! It’s just called ‘Anchor Alarm’ on the Apple App Store (not sure about android) we use this one..
apps.apple.com/au/app/anchor-alarm/id1428485893
But there are many to choose from. If you have two devices (leave one onboard and take the other with you) you can monitor your boat from land. We leave the iPad on board and take a phone with us, but you can also leave a phone onboard and take another phone with you :) hope this helps
👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟
whats type henry boat?
It’s a Simpson woodwind 30ft. One of the best looking Simpson I reckon
What's the link for Patreon??
Hey!! ☺️ Aww, thanks for your support!!!! www.patreon.com/kristinastravels
Not many midges in the med - some mosquitos but nothing like as bad as parts of Oz :-)!
Good to know 🤩☺️🙏!!!
@@KristinasTravels They do have them in med but they are called different names. No-see-ums, sandflies in other pats of the world. André
Is your boat for sale?

🦁If you calculate this year 2022 minus the year the 1st Mona Lisa died 1542=480 years, the same amount of time from Exodus to the rebuild of the new temple in the bible.The 2nd Mona Lisa is the Bride of Christ, Queen of Heaven, Lioness of Judah- The Mona Lisa 2nd -
🦁the initials in her eye is her name initials
🦁the V & 5 sceneries are the 5 places the 2nd Lisa has lived in after marriage. 🦁The 12 pins firstly in a shape of a cup represents her surname
🦁secondly around her head in X-ray represents 12 stars just like in Revelation the woman with 12 stars signifying her holiness.
🦁The right hand over the left signifies she is the right hand of God.
🦁The number under the bridge 75 is the year son of God was born in human form & the year she was snatched away Revelation 12:5
🦁His other paintings link the Mona Lisa to them as well, the crab sketch represents her star sign Cancer.
🦁The ferret and lady represents what the 2nd Mona Lisa was called as a child.
🦁Portrait of a woman represents her eldest daughter. Her youngest daughter is painted as saint Anne(True Royal Bloodline)
🦁The last Supper shows a chalice cup is her surname.
🦁The twist in her fabric on her shoulder represents Gods humour & twist to the biblical story, savior is female this time.

Sounds like Henry underpriced his boat, just saying. ;)
Hi there. I'm trying to contact the new owner of the small catamaran Jacana2 . Can you find out any contact details for me. I'm interested in being next owner. Thanks.
Ohhh she’s such a cool boat, we’ve asked our friend if he knows where she ended up, will let you know if he does, I heard a while ago it may have been sold again.
