You found your niche, Jack! You’re a sailor first, then you’re a content creator/producer/ENTERTAINER! You have such a bright future. I’d venture to say we are all envious!
Love your new camera Jack! You are an asset to Zatara. You do it all! Sails, rigging, climbing, captain, Fishing, fileting, kiting, skateboarding, etc. You are the Jack of all Trades! So very Proud of you as I am sure your Family is as well.
Why does this keep being brought up Americans are strange this whole pop out a kid then peace and good luck my Asian wife family stays together forever and they help each other out no one from my wifes family would ever be "homeless" ergo the current state of affairs in America
I used to think you were just a kite guy. But watching these you are emotional, sincere, heartfelt, very open to what is ahead. Your video's are very interesting, you show your intelligence about sailing. Be proud of U.
Jack I still think you are one of the most interesting people on yooutube. Your funny and dedicated nature is always existent in your video's and your undeniable connection to your family is extremely admirable. Never stop doing what you're doing because you make so many people happy and entertained. Stay safe and have a great time
Ps- The ‘What should I do with my life?’ question…I’m still figuring that out and I turned 60 last week 😁. You’re living it! Making content- 60k+ followers, seeing the world, sailing…you’re rocking it! So many exciting things around the corner every day- and ‘everyday is a school day’. KEEP going and the path will find you..
It is excellent that we had no troubles, but at the same time, and I think I speak for everyone on Zatara, it would've been exciting to see what would've happened if there had been any orcas.
I can imagine it gets a little dull on long passage but, better safe and a bit bored than sorry! I really love watching your Family every week and am very glad you are all safe!@@jackwhitakerr
I loved your impromptu sailing lesson! Little explanation bites and info of things like this help those who are curious about sailing without being overwhelming. Your Dad/son confusion was hilarious! Love the new camera quality too! Good job, always!
Thank you! In my mind, in order to create a GOOD youtube video you gotta be authentic. No hippy dippy "everything is always amazing" bologna. Not saying there aren't amazing moments, just saying you gotta keep it real!
Jack I have not seen another young man so respectful, decent,hard working kid! I think you found what you’re good at in life. As long as you’re happy and enjoy it you and your family sure have a knack for filming! Keep it up! Enjoy life!
I have watched you grow up on the first boat. You have shown the most interest in all aspects of sailing. You have been the one that has worked closely with your dad and have learned and continue to learn more about the technical parts of sailing and fixing things on the boat. I see you continuing your journey as a sailor. Yes, you will become Captain Jack😂😂😂😂😂. That is your destiny.
Jack , one of my favorite friends got his Captain license at the age of 18 and he has had an incredible life as Captain of his own schooner, I have no doubt that you will be successful in all of your future years 🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
jack and finn out here blossoming. i'm literally gonna cry when finn buys his van and leaves zatara. one door must close for another to open i suppose ;(
Jack, you are an inspiration to a lot of people older than yourself. I’m a 33yo wildlife artist, I studied marine biology, and I love the sea. Watching your videos hits me on so many emotional levels. It inspires me to paint, it relieves me from stress! It transports me to the ocean life I will hopefully one day pursue again. Helping wildlife! Thanks for sharing your life with us man.
You are a well measured guy jack. good sailing tips ,Fin looked so chuffed with himself climbing the fake rock wall , i'm going for a morning cycle ride ,, take care,, The sea dwellers ,, ,, Australia ,,
Jack, I appreciate how raw your footage is and that it’s not rushed through. You’re such an inspiration and an awesome narrator. I will always see you as Captain Jack forever living on a sailboat with quite an amount of success & adventures. As a viewer I learn so much from you. Your relationship with your family is beautiful.
12:56 The spinaker is something that spins! I almost peed myself. So cute! Maybe she was referring to the unfurling part. I have serious respect for a father that can admit when he was wrong. That is a beautiful asymetrical spinaker.
My dude ive been following your families journey for like ever. Im 20 and its crazy that theres a few people ive seen on this platform throughout my whole teenager years you are one of them and im so thankful for having that. Thanks man you really are doing something here. Keep it up
I love how you take little pieces of footage over a long time and put it together, it makes it feel like you are really putting a lot of effort into your videos. And you can see that you love what you are doing!
Storytelling is on point, the long version makes it better! Didn't realize but sailing is pretty similar to climbing with the ropes manipulation n stuff. Question I've been wondering with your videos : do you have a flag for each country/marina you embark in ? is it a sailing rule to have a flag onboard in each territory ? or no rule at all ? :) Love your content, Captain, very enlightening 🫡
LOVED that you EXPLAINED ... "DOWN WIND" I have been watching 5 different sailing channels for 5 years and NO ONE has ever done this. You could maybe increase your following by covering super basic sailing concepts and very obvious (to you ... the pros) but not at all obvious to the rest your audience. Especially, if you have a younger audience. Less of them will own boats (just a financial reality of demographics) older you are, more wealth accumulated = more boat owners. Thanks again.
Hi Jack, your videos have truly left a significant impact on me. I am currently 22 years old, and I come from China. For many Chinese people, the twenties are considered an age of uncertainty. Prior to turning 18, my focus was solely on studying hard to gain admission to university, and I never took the time to reflect on what I truly wanted. Your videos have provided me with a new perspective on what life can be. Thank you for that.
Jack, your generation’s Universe has changed to where long range planning doesn’t work so well. Now it’s better to do only what you feel most inspired to do in the next 15 minutes. Inspiration is key. Follow your heart.
Jack, your video proves that you are possibly the best 1st mate any cruising sailboat could hope for. Do yourself a favor, and don’t let Glory get away.
Some notes; Jack is one of the most interesting characters on the tube. Clearly, he has the respect and admiration of the rest of the crew. Great family dynamic: every one works together. The average person produces 0.6-1.8 liters of intestinal gas each day; young, old, man, woman. It is perfectly normal. So there.
Jack let me simply say that from my condominium in the high desert of Las Vegas, you and all of your families videos are the best thing available by far for entertainment. Above anything else on all of TH-cam or cable TV. It is fantastic to watch you grow and it is fantastic your ability to teach us the viewers exactly what you're doing on Zatara. Don't worry about what you're going to do in the future too much… I've been asking myself that question for many years and I haven't yet decided but keep in mind I'm 65 years old and I have loved my life so far lol. Continue to love life with the passion you show and your heart and your mind will guide you always.
Great clip. Keep doing what your doing. Your explanation of what you’re doing and why is great and will help young people that want to do what you’re doing.
dude I watched your parents channel for years and just checked you out, man I really like learning about how to rig and what lines are used for what and why. This is a very different channel and much better for me. New subscriber.
Hey Jack! I'm Eddie. I'm a veteran Marine who before I became a Marine, I wanted to be a Marine Biologist. I went into the Marine Corps to pay for my education. Fast forward 20 years, and now I'm in a woodworking school, and still haven't been scuba diving, although I free dive and snorkel here in Michigan. I've started a channel on here about woodworking if you're interested. I'm still super interested in Marine Biology, I love the beauty of the coral reefs. Keep making the content brother and I'll keep watching! 🤙
its so cool to see you upload more regularly, ive been following and watching your and your siblings / family's videos for years now and its so cool to see how much you guys have grown up, got better at editing and putting out amazing content and ventured out into your own desires. can't wait to see what the future has in store for you and your family. keep grinding, the future is gonna be bright for you, your siblings and especially your family.
Great video Jack…we can see and feel the *joy* you’re having creating your videos which makes them extra special. Appreciate the sailing information too! 💙
This video is so good! I enjoy watching you do your thing with the sails and explaining what you’re actually doing - to us non sailors. Editing is impressive! Nice work Jack!
Loving this Jack! Followed the family since you all had the monohull! Loved the grin from the wise old Keith when you hooked the bottom…but all credit to you included it in your video and showed you are exactly that…human as you said. I love that you all just figure it out as you go…it shows you can do anything and you guys have done some amazing things! Calm seas and fair winds across the big blue Atlantic. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
At least we finally know who it was that really got you all around the world! You're a true sailor Jack. Helping the captain understand wind direction, and many other things...I'm sure. I'm in love with your content. Easy flow, just enough fluff-filler, and we get to see the depth and drive of your personality. Looking forward to you guys landing in the Canaries!
Your channel is so filled with such amazing content. Love it!!!!! Canada loves you and your family. Keep up the good work Jack. You were born for TH-cam Stick with it ,you’ll be making lots of money. Stay positive be happy and trust your work.....🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️ it’s on another level
You are such a joy to watch. Your honest freedom adds a sparkle of happiness to each of us. And you have the gift of a teacher in you. Your methods of easily explaining what is happening really makes the journey for us. You are a spirited adventurer. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride!
Jack your natural charisma is amazing! Honestly you are the type of person who can do anything! The content you make is amazing but also you should def look into modeling at least on the side! You have that effortless model look! Amazing vid as always! 🤩
Mad respect for you Jack! I love the way that you frame your shots. Very artistic! You have a great natural talent. Your videos are great. Your experiences make you unique and that makes your perspective unique, informative and entertaining. Keep doing you! Great job!
i dont watch finns channel often but damn , let em know hes been showing some great athletic skills latley even his body is more muscular now. great job finner
Jack don't stress!!! Its been often said if you love your Work you will never work a day in your life. Take it from an old guy who still feels young....take your time to find what you like. Try many different things. You will always come back to the thing you enjoy as the Focus for your life. Automatically like the Compass pointing North! Most important...keep your focus on Family as they will always be your Rock. Could tell you lots more but I think you get it. You remind me of my Son in many ways and thats a huge compliment! Keep Happy!
Jack, you have not only a passion for the sea, but also the brains. You absorb knowledge on it like a sponge and then apply it. Have you ever been shown how to use paper charts along with sextant, chronometer & compass for navigation if and when every bit of electronics fails on a vessel? No computer. No communications. No nothing! If you're thinking of a career as a mariner, this is one of the major things that would grab serious attention on any resume. In the meantime...wonderful video covering life on Zatara. God grant you safe passage. "Sail on! Sail on!" Jack (never give up hope...just sail on!) From a terrific poem called 'Columbus' by Joaquin Miller. I think you'd enjoy it. Easy to find in a Google search. It was my dad's favorite motto in life...sail on! My dad's ship was attacked and sunk in WWll. He and his crew spent 3yrs 9mos in a Japanese POW camp. He and most of his men made it through alive and returned to the U.S. So Jack...NEVER give up hope.....just sail on.💙💦⛵
I absolutely love watching your videos Jack I really enjoy watching you explain why you are doing what you’re doing like putting the sails up or whatever I also think it’s so cool that you can be a realist ☺️
You're getting the grove on (old people term) Jack!! Beautiful video and instructions with the new camera. You're going places. Try new places and jobs until you find what you want to do. And part of that is this channel. You're so driven and motivated. You got this even if it's scary to leave home base. It will always be there for you.
I appreciate the way you explain things as you go. For us non sailor we wonder what you sailors are talking about. And we also appreciate the different perspective the 5 vloggers on board your board share. Really cool!
You should be proud of your work brother, u made a master piece. you learned thing when it comes on editing. It is been a long time I saw your old video, and I could say that u learned very much and you made it more interesting. take your time and u will discover some spices that u will add on to your dishes to make it more intersting and flavorful. just trust the journey and made a 10x good video along the way. So far so good
@@jackwhitakerr and also add on, for some reason long video that u made is fun and never felt like boring every second and minute is worth it. U should do long video.
Great video. And Jac, as an older Texan I will tell you, don’t rush it. It’s a good time to be where you are. You are becoming a great blogger and sailor so just stay at it and study as you go.
Videos are getting so much better. I enjoyed the give and take with your Dad. First he pointed out that you made a mistake, then you questioned what he was saying. Nothing rude by either of you, just respect but keeping each other on your toes. Hope you stay on Zatara. Keep up the great video work.
I love that you are doing videos from your POV more. I think you are figuring out how much you love sailing and how much it is in your heart. Hope you keep doing what you love.
Jack I'm 72 been watching since you got started. It's amazing to see how you all have grown up. Nice family. How often do you have blow our fights? We never see that, and I bet you all a few disagreements.
Really good video Jack! This was so informative, and I think many of us learned a lot. And it was nice that you had such long sequences which makes us, the viewers, feel more comfortable, calm, and a we feel more of a part of you guys and what you are doing. The constantly quick shifting sequences here and there that so many filmmakers use today is only stressfull and not harmonious what so ever. So I personally would say I liked this a lot better.
Jack I'm Aldo a retired Navy Photographers Mate from the 70s. I was a photographer for Apollo 16 and 17 recoveries in 1972. I also shoot with Sony like the A7r and A7riv and love Sony. I used Canon for most of my career. You are much better than me, and I'm not kidding. I'm still photo camera guy type. You're a video guy, and dam good at it, I must say. Keep up the good work, young man. Your mom and dad are great parents.
Another great video and informative. So that's where "3 sheets to the wind" comes from. Glad you and your family is doing well and made that part of the trip out ok. The area looks beautiful.
Jack, keep being you! Stay on the boat as long as you can. You are still so young and have so much life to live. Soak up as much knowledge from your parents and enjoy the time together. You might not understand that now but when you grow old you will appreciate everything. Safe travels!!
Jack, I am enjoying your videos. Both, Finn and you have put together some interesting footage of your lives on this incredibly boat. Thank you so much forsaking the time to share your experiences.
Great job with the video Jack! Loved the sailing moments with your dad and I’m glad you guys are through the Orca zone. Awesome new camera!! Be safe out there!
Another great video Jack. I really like that you include some of the technical aspects of sailing in your videos. Also, the nearly 18 minute length is a real treat. I know you don't post on TikTok much anymore, but it might not hurt to post a little teaser over there whenever you post a new video on TH-cam. That might bring over some of those 1/2 million + followers to your TH-cam channel. Safe travels!
You know, I absolutely love that all of these young people Rennie all of you are all doing these videos. It’s so entertaining keep it up guys. I’ve never loved watching your show as much as I love with these two girls on your boat.
You found your niche, Jack! You’re a sailor first, then you’re a content creator/producer/ENTERTAINER!
You have such a bright future. I’d venture to say we are all envious!
Thank you! I appreciate that comment.
You are a good guy Jack. Even if you keep staying with family..you aren't a freeloader. You put in work and help so much. Good luck!
Thank you :)
Your new Camara. It’s da bomb! 👍🏼😊
Love your new camera Jack!
You are an asset to Zatara. You do it all! Sails, rigging, climbing, captain, Fishing, fileting, kiting, skateboarding, etc.
You are the Jack of all Trades! So very Proud of you as I am sure your Family is as well.
lol. The aha moment!!
Why does this keep being brought up Americans are strange this whole pop out a kid then peace and good luck my Asian wife family stays together forever and they help each other out no one from my wifes family would ever be "homeless" ergo the current state of affairs in America
I used to think you were just a kite guy. But watching these you are emotional, sincere, heartfelt, very open to what is ahead. Your video's are very interesting, you show your intelligence about sailing. Be proud of U.
Jack I still think you are one of the most interesting people on yooutube. Your funny and dedicated nature is always existent in your video's and your undeniable connection to your family is extremely admirable. Never stop doing what you're doing because you make so many people happy and entertained. Stay safe and have a great time
That piece of .. is homophobe
I have to say I never thought of it that way! Thank you for the great comment.
Yes he is... REAL, genuine, authentic, true, to himself & to us, that's why we love him! And we love you too FINN!!
Ps- The ‘What should I do with my life?’ question…I’m still figuring that out and I turned 60 last week 😁. You’re living it! Making content- 60k+ followers, seeing the world, sailing…you’re rocking it! So many exciting things around the corner every day- and ‘everyday is a school day’. KEEP going and the path will find you..
Like father like son moment here. Videos keep getting better Jack. Glad you guys made it through Orca territory safely.
Thank you. Glad to be out of it!
Thank you for taking us along on your life journey. No matter where you go, whatever you do, may contentment find you there. Safe and healthy travels.
Thank you 🙏
Well said
Great job, Jack! Glad you had no problems with the Orcas! The new camera is looking great.
It is excellent that we had no troubles, but at the same time, and I think I speak for everyone on Zatara, it would've been exciting to see what would've happened if there had been any orcas.
I can imagine it gets a little dull on long passage but, better safe and a bit bored than sorry! I really love watching your Family every week and am very glad you are all safe!@@jackwhitakerr
I loved your impromptu sailing lesson!
Little explanation bites and info of things like this help those who
are curious about sailing without being overwhelming. Your Dad/son confusion was hilarious!
Love the new camera quality too! Good job, always!
Always enjoy your video loved the part with your Dad and the direction of the wind. Your videos are so real. Keep them coming.
Hahaha thank you! We have our moments...
Video picture quality it sterling...pristine... absolutely gorgeous.
16:05 I was laughing so hard... the "ah-ha" moment. They also call that a "senior moment". 🤣
Haha he got him when the sail was upside down and then he got him back with the wind. Haha classic father son moment. Classic
Love you folks just being real - making errors correcting and trying again - just normal folks ... great job!
Thank you! In my mind, in order to create a GOOD youtube video you gotta be authentic. No hippy dippy "everything is always amazing" bologna. Not saying there aren't amazing moments, just saying you gotta keep it real!
Thumbs up for being human! Thanks for your videos. They always make me smile. I really appreciate all the different videos from Zatara!
Thank you :)
Move over Captain Keith…Captain Jack is on your heels!! 😂😂
Jack I have not seen another young man so respectful, decent,hard working kid! I think you found what you’re good at in life. As long as you’re happy and enjoy it you and your family sure have a knack for filming! Keep it up! Enjoy life!
"NIPPLY".....🤣
Havent heard that in a while.
Cheers for the laugh mate 😁
I have watched you grow up on the first boat. You have shown the most interest in all aspects of sailing. You have been the one that has worked closely with your dad and have learned and continue to learn more about the technical parts of sailing and fixing things on the boat. I see you continuing your journey as a sailor. Yes, you will become Captain Jack😂😂😂😂😂. That is your destiny.
I WILL become a captain... I swear it.
Do it! We dare you ;)
Can’t wait to see Captain Jack!!!!!!
Jack , one of my favorite friends got his Captain license at the age of 18 and he has had an incredible life as Captain of his own schooner, I have no doubt that you will be successful in all of your future years 🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
jack and finn out here blossoming. i'm literally gonna cry when finn buys his van and leaves zatara. one door must close for another to open i suppose ;(
Jack, you are an inspiration to a lot of people older than yourself. I’m a 33yo wildlife artist, I studied marine biology, and I love the sea. Watching your videos hits me on so many emotional levels. It inspires me to paint, it relieves me from stress! It transports me to the ocean life I will hopefully one day pursue again. Helping wildlife! Thanks for sharing your life with us man.
You are a well measured guy jack. good sailing tips ,Fin looked so chuffed with himself climbing the fake rock wall , i'm going for a morning cycle ride ,, take care,, The sea dwellers ,, ,, Australia ,,
Thank you! I appreciate that :)
Guide your ship by the values you have. It well be a fine ship ----- no mater where you go ------- there you. ---------------------------- Stay Humble
My hand to God --- you will be 69 to looking back on a full life
We all have our fingers crossed for y'all to have a safe passage through the Straits of Gibraltar.
Thank you
Rockin' it Jack!!! 👍🤗🤗 this is what everyone is here to see, great fun, sail on Zataras! 🤗🤗
Jack,
I appreciate how raw your footage is and that it’s not rushed through.
You’re such an inspiration and an awesome narrator.
I will always see you as Captain Jack forever living on a sailboat with quite an amount of success & adventures. As a viewer I learn so much from you. Your relationship with your family is beautiful.
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack passed gas, and burned his ass, blowing out a candle stick! lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. very happy that you left the faults in . " Got my head up my butt ," that's from the skipper .
12:56 The spinaker is something that spins! I almost peed myself. So cute! Maybe she was referring to the unfurling part. I have serious respect for a father that can admit when he was wrong. That is a beautiful asymetrical spinaker.

Love your content, Captain, very enlightening 🫡
I like this question! I'll do a video part on it.
LOVED that you EXPLAINED ... "DOWN WIND" I have been watching 5 different sailing channels for 5 years and NO ONE has ever done this. You could maybe increase your following by covering super basic sailing concepts and very obvious (to you ... the pros) but not at all obvious to the rest your audience. Especially, if you have a younger audience. Less of them will own boats (just a financial reality of demographics) older you are, more wealth accumulated = more boat owners. Thanks again.
I like this comment. I will do just that :)
❤ beautiful Jack ❤
Hi Jack..... nicely done! Easy way to explain/understand halyards is that they are the "haul yards" that haul yards of sailcloth up the mast!
That lady was like "OK THANKS!" and Keith just turned his back on her. 😂 What a grump.
11:33 keith being like “oh watch me”
Hi Jack, your videos have truly left a significant impact on me. I am currently 22 years old, and I come from China. For many Chinese people, the twenties are considered an age of uncertainty. Prior to turning 18, my focus was solely on studying hard to gain admission to university, and I never took the time to reflect on what I truly wanted. Your videos have provided me with a new perspective on what life can be. Thank you for that.
🤣🤣 "Jack farts a lot" Segways into "its blowing enough to stop using the motor" 🤣🤣🤣 Nicely done with the edit...
Jack, your generation’s Universe has changed to where long range planning doesn’t work so well. Now it’s better to do only what you feel most inspired to do in the next 15 minutes. Inspiration is key. Follow your heart.
The bond you and your family have is so beautiful 😊 I love how you tease each other and laugh at your mistakes, that is really special.
Jack, your video proves that you are possibly the best 1st mate any cruising sailboat could hope for. Do yourself a favor, and don’t let Glory get away.
Some notes; Jack is one of the most interesting characters on the tube. Clearly, he has the respect and admiration of the rest of the crew. Great family dynamic: every one works together. The average person produces 0.6-1.8 liters of intestinal gas each day; young, old, man, woman. It is perfectly normal. So there.
Jack let me simply say that from my condominium in the high desert of Las Vegas, you and all of your families videos are the best thing available by far for entertainment. Above anything else on all of TH-cam or cable TV. It is fantastic to watch you grow and it is fantastic your ability to teach us the viewers exactly what you're doing on Zatara. Don't worry about what you're going to do in the future too much… I've been asking myself that question for many years and I haven't yet decided but keep in mind I'm 65 years old and I have loved my life so far lol. Continue to love life with the passion you show and your heart and your mind will guide you always.
Great clip. Keep doing what your doing. Your explanation of what you’re doing and why is great and will help young people that want to do what you’re doing.
dude I watched your parents channel for years and just checked you out, man I really like learning about how to rig and what lines are used for what and why. This is a very different channel and much better for me. New subscriber.
Lol. World famous quote: 'A spinnaker is a spinner attached to a Whitaker.'

Enjoyed the technical explanation of the different lines sheets and halyards I’m with Jaydn good description 😂
I see Jack is working hard on that Ron Jeremy moustache. Persists and one day it will be full grown!!!
Great video Jack…we can see and feel the *joy* you’re having creating your videos which makes them extra special. Appreciate the sailing information too! 💙
This video is so good! I enjoy watching you do your thing with the sails and explaining what you’re actually doing - to us non sailors. Editing is impressive! Nice work Jack!
his whole vibe is just so cool
Love your videos…information wrapped in humor..the best kind. 🥰
Jack you have learn so much more then you know I watch you grow up and your dad taught you so much!
Not jack with the biggest forearms pump when he’s getting the sails out
Loving this Jack!
Followed the family since you all had the monohull!
Loved the grin from the wise old Keith when you hooked the bottom…but all credit to you included it in your video and showed you are exactly that…human as you said.
I love that you all just figure it out as you go…it shows you can do anything and you guys have done some amazing things!
Calm seas and fair winds across the big blue Atlantic.
Love from Australia 🇦🇺
At least we finally know who it was that really got you all around the world!
You're a true sailor Jack. Helping the captain understand wind direction, and many other things...I'm sure.
I'm in love with your content. Easy flow, just enough fluff-filler, and we get to see the depth and drive of your personality.
Looking forward to you guys landing in the Canaries!
It is ALWAYS a joy to watch and learn Jack. Keep up the great work!
Your channel is so filled with such amazing content. Love it!!!!! Canada loves you and your family. Keep up the good work Jack. You were born for TH-cam Stick with it ,you’ll be making lots of money. Stay positive be happy and trust your work.....🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️ it’s on another level
"My head hurts"
-Keith
Loved your video Jack, keep up the great work. It’s good to have someone like you on board to keep your dad in line. Lol.
I love seeing the more “technical” sides of things when it comes to sailing. Thanks for sharing.
You are such a joy to watch. Your honest freedom adds a sparkle of happiness to each of us. And you have the gift of a teacher in you. Your methods of easily explaining what is happening really makes the journey for us. You are a spirited adventurer. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride!
Thanks for sharing Jack.

i dont watch finns channel often but damn , let em know hes been showing some great athletic skills latley even his body is more muscular now. great job finner
Jack don't stress!!!
Its been often said if you love your Work you will never work a day in your life. Take it from an old guy who still feels young....take your time to find what you like. Try many different things. You will always come back to the thing you enjoy as the Focus for your life. Automatically like the Compass pointing North!
Most important...keep your focus on Family as they will always be your Rock.
Could tell you lots more but I think you get it. You remind me of my Son in many ways and thats a huge compliment!
Keep Happy!
That episode made me laugh. Love the way you and your dad get on so well. I'm subscribed ☺️
Jack, you have not only a passion for the sea, but also the brains. You absorb knowledge on it like a sponge and then apply it. Have you ever been shown how to use paper charts along with sextant, chronometer & compass for navigation if and when every bit of electronics fails on a vessel? No computer. No communications. No nothing! If you're thinking of a career as a mariner, this is one of the major things that would grab serious attention on any resume. In the meantime...wonderful video covering life on Zatara. God grant you safe passage.
"Sail on! Sail on!" Jack (never give up hope...just sail on!) From a terrific poem called 'Columbus' by Joaquin Miller. I think you'd enjoy it. Easy to find in a Google search. It was my dad's favorite motto in life...sail on! My dad's ship was attacked and sunk in WWll. He and his crew spent 3yrs 9mos in a Japanese POW camp. He and most of his men made it through alive and returned to the U.S. So Jack...NEVER give up hope.....just sail on.💙💦⛵
I absolutely love watching your videos Jack I really enjoy watching you explain why you are doing what you’re doing like putting the sails up or whatever I also think it’s so cool that you can be a realist ☺️
You're getting the grove on (old people term) Jack!! Beautiful video and instructions with the new camera. You're going places. Try new places and jobs until you find what you want to do. And part of that is this channel. You're so driven and motivated. You got this even if it's scary to leave home base. It will always be there for you.
I love the fine resolution of this camera Jack. It should serve you and the rest of us fans well.
Jack your doing a great job helping your dad, there's nothing better than a son helping his dad, OUTSTANDING YOUNG MAN
I appreciate the way you explain things as you go. For us non sailor we wonder what you sailors are talking about. And we also appreciate the different perspective the 5 vloggers on board your board share. Really cool!
You should be proud of your work brother, u made a master piece. you learned thing when it comes on editing. It is been a long time I saw your old video, and I could say that u learned very much and you made it more interesting. take your time and u will discover some spices that u will add on to your dishes to make it more intersting and flavorful. just trust the journey and made a 10x good video along the way. So far so good
Thank you. This means a lot to me :)
@@jackwhitakerr and also add on, for some reason long video that u made is fun and never felt like boring every second and minute is worth it. U should do long video.
The confusion moment 😂😂 that was the best
Jack…. Awesome video & your normal questioning about what you want to do with your life is great for other young folks…. Thanks!
Great video. And Jac, as an older Texan I will tell you, don’t rush it. It’s a good time to be where you are. You are becoming a great blogger and sailor so just stay at it and study as you go.
You're a brother to many Jack! Its a part of life to discover what you want to do in life, so have fun, bc whats an experience if it ain't fun lol
Dude, you've got it going on! Ride it until you can't ride no more. Raise your family the same way.
Videos are getting so much better. I enjoyed the give and take with your Dad. First he pointed out that you made a mistake, then you questioned what he was saying. Nothing rude by either of you, just respect but keeping each other on your toes. Hope you stay on Zatara. Keep up the great video work.
Doing great on the videos, Jack. Crazy to think how far you and your family has come since starting this journey/ adventure.
I love that you are doing videos from your POV more. I think you are figuring out how much you love sailing and how much it is in your heart. Hope you keep doing what you love.
your videos are very satisfying to watch. great visuals! keep up the amazing work!
Jack I'm 72 been watching since you got started. It's amazing to see how you all have grown up. Nice family. How often do you have blow our fights? We never see that, and I bet you all a few disagreements.
Love your family’s adventure. If you’re thinking about it, you or Finn should do a cover of Jamie Cullom’s “All at Sea.” I think it kind of fits.
Really good video Jack!
This was so informative, and I think many of us learned a lot.
And it was nice that you had such long sequences which makes us, the viewers, feel more comfortable, calm, and a we feel more of a part of you guys and what you are doing.
The constantly quick shifting sequences here and there that so many filmmakers use today is only stressfull and not harmonious what so ever.
So I personally would say I liked this a lot better.
Happy birthday Jack! 🎂
Jack I'm Aldo a retired Navy Photographers Mate from the 70s. I was a photographer for Apollo 16 and 17 recoveries in 1972. I also shoot with Sony like the A7r and A7riv and love Sony. I used Canon for most of my career. You are much better than me, and I'm not kidding. I'm still photo camera guy type. You're a video guy, and dam good at it, I must say. Keep up the good work, young man. Your mom and dad are great parents.
Another great video and informative. So that's where "3 sheets to the wind" comes from.
Glad you and your family is doing well and made that part of the trip out ok. The area looks beautiful.
Jack, keep being you! Stay on the boat as long as you can. You are still so young and have so much life to live. Soak up as much knowledge from your parents and enjoy the time together. You might not understand that now but when you grow old you will appreciate everything. Safe travels!!
Love your videos Jack. You always put some fun and entertaining parts in your videos. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the Z-crew!
Jack, I am enjoying your videos. Both, Finn and you have put together some interesting footage of your lives on this incredibly boat. Thank you so much forsaking the time to share your experiences.
Great job with the video Jack! Loved the sailing moments with your dad and I’m glad you guys are through the Orca zone. Awesome new camera!! Be safe out there!
Great video Jack!!🥰 so glad the Orcas were not a problem 😁
You guys and gals rock. Love the uploads, love the humor and realism. I am sailing along from my iPad. Congratulations on the new camera.
Jack your content is fire. Editing is on point. As many say find something you love and it will bring you the world.
Another great video Jack. I really like that you include some of the technical aspects of sailing in your videos. Also, the nearly 18 minute length is a real treat. I know you don't post on TikTok much anymore, but it might not hurt to post a little teaser over there whenever you post a new video on TH-cam. That might bring over some of those 1/2 million + followers to your TH-cam channel. Safe travels!
You know, I absolutely love that all of these young people Rennie all of you are all doing these videos. It’s so entertaining keep it up guys. I’ve never loved watching your show as much as I love with these two girls on your boat.
