I think y'all are teaching your children more than they'll ever learn in the American education system. Not to mention financial, how to take care of themselves and what to do in amor every situation, and diversity. Renee & Keith y'all are doing an awesome job and I look up to y'all and striving to get there too. 💕💕💕💕 Y'all
The thing is I don’t understand a word about engines and systems etc and therefore cannot muster any real interest ……. But I still watch every vid because I adore Keith , his sense of humour , his approach to life and love listening to him !
It is quite impressive how much solid knowledge you have gained in the short times since you have started sailing. We love you all and look forward to sharing your sea going adventures!
I used to work in a Marina and build sailboats when I was a teenager, I went in the Navy and retired. Been watching Sailing Zatara with my family, as we too traveled a lot, but not like this. Traveled the whole United States with a RV. My wife and kids are all wanting to buy a sailboat! Not one of them have ever sailed! This ought to get interesting real fast... Thanks Sailing Zatara! Love watching your adventures!
Discovered your channel and absolutely love the fact you aren’t constantly promoting gear, clicks, monetizing or patreon. Add that to the fact you have an amazingly awesome family and you’re obviously good (great) folks. Spent a lot of time on the water throughout my life, my dad was a ship captain so grew up on the sea. At 58 I’m considering doing something similar and you’re motivating and mesmerizing me with your content. I’m also tired of chasing the almighty dollar when that ends up being all you do and not living life fully. Cheers and thanks for the inspiration!
But late comment, but just wanted to say thanks for the breakdown, and for trying to make it as honest as you see it! You have an amazing family and clearly one in a million life for your kids, they can’t help but be given a headstart with this as their childhood!
Nicely done Dad. Giving your children a lot of what will serve them well in life. Give them interesting lessons/experiences and not stuff. Well done and thoughtful
Thank you for the tour! Great looking machine. I'm an arm chair Corona sailer only. (My current boat is an STV tunnel hull, 110+mph river racer) I've been watching Catamaran tours with great interest. From my living room the important features I think I would want is a flying bridge/helm with a weatherproof hard top. Forward facing nav station with good visibility, galley up, and a forward cockpit area. Enjoy your videos. Keep em coming.
This is AMAZING! You made the MOST complete and informative sailing/equipment/how to, video that I've ever seen on this subject. I've subscribed and watch your videos over and over. You have a natural and complete way of covering this subject. I'm retired and will be using your information for purchasing my cat.
@@okiecali wow watching it twice. Cool. U planning on an adventure sail yourself someday? (I'm really not except maybe a day sail and I'm trying to talk my friend into giving me his old Hobbie Cat). But if you like this show, I also like Sailing Sophisticated Lady and Sailing Project Atticus.
No joke so ultimate respect and envy for his boating, engineering, general knowledge, husbandness and fatherhood expertise. I want to be Keith when I grow up! However, I would definitely comb my hair before making a video.
Great info Keith, it's much appreciated. Very hands on and informative. Can't get much better than that. Thank you for all your time and thoughts into putting this video together.
Great Video. This is a very large boat and is going to keep you busy maintaining and running it. Time for the junior crew to get involved with the upkeep. Once trained on the daily running, maintenance and repairs, the oldies can sit back and relax.
BEAUTIFUL BOAT! This is my 3rd day to yur channel and i am this far, workin my way to real time and i must say i am addicted to yur video's. It is so hard to keep myself from clickin on a real time video but wanted to see everything from the start.Very Excited!!!!
Got an email half drafted for Keith on a bit about me, if anyone wants to read it when I send it this weekend sometime. I am almost caught up on your whole series now!! This complete walkthrough here of the new boat was just great. Thank you.
from my viewing many uploads on TH-cam I must say your Catamaran layout is by far the best, I thought I heard you say your boat was made in France - I really like the layout of the rooms and especially the location of the gally. no doubt you guys located the best craft just love the design of the woodwork throughout the Vessel, you made a Great buy. USN, I miss the deep blue be safe and enjoy life.
You guys are great to watch btw it’s a true family television show comparable to some of the great ones we grew up with like Home Improvement w Tim the Tool Man Taylor lol 🤗 your whole family is just a joy to watch and everybody has an equal and special role to play. We love how you guy’s don’t take things too seriously and have a good sense of humor and are just as goofy as our family, it really makes you relatable to the typical all American family and it’s just such a pleasure to watch, so thank you for putting the time and effort in to bring us into your weird n whacky world of wonderment and adventure 🙏🤗❤️
Wow! What a boat! Just watched the inside tour and then the tech tour... I know y'all will put it to great use, and I thank you in advance for bringing us all along.
This may be a little late but I didn't see any discussion of engine problems but I think I heard Keith mention an engine failure. Nevertheless I want to mention the necessity of cleaning the recirculating cooling tubes that saltwater is pumped through to cool an engine if the motors have isolated cooling system. I used a piece of #10 insulated stranded copper wire to push the corrosive build up through the tubes to the outflow side on my sons single hull single diesel engine sailboat. Didn't have a wire brush small enough or long enough to reach the length of tubes about 18 inches. This allowed engine to run cooler and avoided imminent engine failure. Good luck. Thumbs up.
Just found you guys as I was watching SLV, and really learned a lot about buying, maintenance and the expense of cat ownership. One day I hope to purchase a cat myself and having these e-logs is priceless information!! Keith you have an amazing family and new boat, thanks for sharing!!
Love the new boat!!! Can not wait to see more videos on the water and the places you will visit. I truly missed you guys while you were away. So happy to see this boat seem to fit your family better just by the little you have shown so far. Each person has there own space to go to. I would imagine its well needed at times. There is always work to be done on whatever you buy new old or older. Oh yeah did I tell you I am so excited your back ;)
Excellent presentation of the boat. I'm certain sailing will be much more comfortable compared to the previous boat. Looking forward to seeing more great adventures. You're living the dream, safe travels and happy sailing.
You are a very courageous men, moving from a 55Ft monohull to a 59Ft catamaran, usually people downsize lengthwise when going to cats. I admired your adventure I think you will provide your family with great experiences learning how to enjoy life, best of luck.
Thanks for your effort Keith, I thoroughly enjoy the technical aspects of this video. You are a man of many talents, a McGuiver haha. You show elements of ex military, being OCD in nature, not liking loose ends and having clean installs and house keeping ect.
That was a great video, i hope you do some others that are as informative. Also hoping you will show the nitty-gritty and the small details involved of how to install and hook up solar panels. Thanks for putting in the time to make the Vid!
A superb presentation, Keith. Really fine. I enjoyed it immensely. You have a very complex machine and a good mastery of it. Incidentally, My home in the Santa Cruz Mountains is off the grid and powered exclusively by Solar. Your battery setup and solar panels and backup generator are almost identical to mine in power and consumption. Also, curiously, you have exactly the same kind of little super flashlight that I have. It's great to work witn in a dark space because you can hold it in your mouth and have your hands free to work with. You're going to have a great adventure witn this boat. I can hardly wait for you to cast off and get underweigh. love to all, Jim
Hi Keith, Renee Anna, Jack, Finn and Kate, not sure if you still see comments on posts 4 years earlier, but thanks for a great tour of you "new" boat. I am watching all the videos from day 1 so it will take me a while for me to catch up to today but really enjoying your video's, Great work Renee. Happy sailing.😊
Nice Yacht Guy. I am a monohull guy but have just booked our first catamaran trip in Thailand has we now have a new born. Can't wait to see your videos maintaining and handling the boat. All the best
Awesome video, what a perfect boat. Can't wait to see how this boat treats you! Side note I learned from doing the same thing for years until getting called out..... "Quay" sounds like "key"
Hey guys, what are the possibility's of you doing a video on buying a boat overseas, the pit fall's of vat taxes US. taxes, how you made sure the documentation was free and clear? I have read so many horror stories on buying boats overseas, that I have stopped looking over there. Thanks for all you do, love what your doing.
Absolutely love the technical overview style of videos. Can't wait for the DIY panel install, and windlass upgrade (well, magnet sensors) install videos.
just started watching your vlogs-- my respect for you goes up each episode --you are my hero i am living my dreams through your life (you are doing what i wished i could)keep going always keep it honest--- show the flaws with the wins and the wins that are luck it comes across as true and i love you for that i'll keep watching each time sometimes i watch twice cause i miss something --love you-- love your family-best of luck- best of adventures--
Still trying to get caught up. I honestly didn't think I'd watch this...not being very technical...but it's worth watching just to hear your comments. Safe sailing.
Wow! What a boat! Seeing all those big systems made me nervous. I see a lot of failures and maintenance for the future of this channel. Which I love to watch so bring it on!
Great point about the alternator being under the water pump, however if you're changing out the water pump, you've removed the belt already, it's only two bolts and a plug to remove the alternator. Alternators are pretty tough as long as they aren't energized, I never worried about getting the one wet on my truck and I used to spray off that engine every time I washed the truck. Great video!
Yes but when a water pump fails it leaks first most of the time, ruining the alternator and the water pump without you knowing. Alternator should always be on the top.
Hi, we use roughly 220amps at 24volts per day. Using lifepo4, and Victron Quattro we can run everything (kettle, cookers, washing machine etc) off batteries? Recharge via 900w solar (gives between 2 and 4kwh day depending upon season), 150 amp/4v alternator (gives about 90amps continuous at cruising revs and controlled temp) and lastly 100ah charge from 120ah mains charger using genset. Hope these numbers help. Lifepo4 is the game changer by a mile. I did diy, 400ah at 24v with a v good bms and relays was euro5000. Thanks for your channel, just found you and enjoying it whilst we live on our 57' mono
What a great job you did showing the power systems. I really enjoyed it. That is one big cat. Looking forward to the next z-log. GOD bless this family. JC
Hi Keith Nice boat, Total respect to you guys The one thing I like is a good solid depth sounder, one you can navigate from You can see the bottom at 600 meters and rising 400, 200, 100, Beep beep. ...!! All the best Guys look forward to more posting
Great vid. I am always impressed with the fact that everyone knows how you should improve YOUR yacht. BTW... I did the research, after finding this beauty withinYOUR budget, you only need $3.25 million to implement everyone else’s suggestions so that they are happy with YOUR boat. 🧐
Oh yeah! Capt. Kieth... I'm about your build but only 5'11"... Wait a few more years and you won't even demo putting your legs in there it will be so hard to get out... thank God the kids aren't going anywhere for a while. My got older and now I have to pay everyone to do everything - beware of of the next six years in the old back-ee... What a boat, and super family, God loves you for sure!
I'm pretty excited that y'all are pumping out videos again. I can't wait to hear your personal experiences with the pros and cons of a cat vs monohull. I know y'all don't shy away from hot button topics! 😂🤣
Talk about a great boat for your family. Looking forward to your reports on the differences between the mono hull and the cat, besides the obvious. good luck to you and your family with the new boat.
Great video and appreciated seeing the guts. I really like it and yes it will take work but it will be your hand, not to mention the education for the kids.
Keith I saw yesterday that the new Harness life jackets have epirbs that talk with AIS for MOB situations, also Zoning the solar probably is a better idea, might take multiple controllers, but that adds redundancy along with the expense.
Good job Keith, very informative and entertaining. Before I retired and sold my Ditch Witch dealership, I was also a Yanmar dealer. You are right about a Yanmar engines, there are no better engines out there, be it Marine or Construction. Quite, powerful, very fuel efficient. I’m looking forward to ya’lls next installment.

“Three dog down”....Keith is hilarious. Love this boat....peace & fair winds
It is quite impressive how much solid knowledge you have gained in the short times since you have started sailing.
We love you all and look forward to sharing your sea going adventures!
Straight forward, not afraid of a little hard work and doing it with a good sense of humor. I love the real deal! Thanks for taking us with you!
Keith... you worth having the best... you really dedicate your tie case and focus... Best and kind regards to your wonderful partner and kids
This is as close to owning a boat as you can get without spending the bucks. Thanks for sharing all the nooks and crannies.

I like your reasoning for a catermaran Keith.....lots of good systems on the boat.....I am very jealous.... congrats!
That's a lot of boat...can't wait to see this dream boat under sail and on the move. Excellent start to a new season... loving it!
26:27 "I don't like loose ends" the words of a wise man.

Great to see you guys back with new update on your new Catamaran. Have been following you al from the beginning way back in FL.

Outstanding Z-Log Mr Keith. The do’s and don’ts are appreciated for our future cat purchase.👍
The amount of space you have seems unreal. Congrats on the new boat.
Wow that's A LOT of boat! I can't wait to see what kind of speeds you hit when you're on a run. Great purchase!!
I loved every bit of that walkthrough, you have a good knowledge of your boat and I’m learning bit by bit about cats. Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺

I just started watching you guys a couple days ago. You guys make me laugh 😂 Tim Allen , home improvement. I remember that show.
Keep the technical data flowing I love it
Awesome boat tour, I have always loved the Privilege line of boats, Can wait to see her on the sea ..fair winds.
Great point about the alternator being under the water pump, however if you're changing out the water pump, you've removed the belt already, it's only two bolts and a plug to remove the alternator.

Thanks Keith for all the information, it was quite impressive.
Who cares what it cost! You only live once! I think it’s beautiful .....oh and it’s also your life😝. Thanks for sharing!!
Wow, awesome boat. A lot to learn. Can’t wait until your sailing.
Exciting times with the zcrew and the new boat. Sohappy to see new vids guys! Best wishes with all the plans.
Amazing your technical knowledge; and you seem to enjoy understanding the systems. Fantastic, and thank you, beautiful yacht.
Hi, we use roughly 220amps at 24volts per day. Using lifepo4, and Victron Quattro we can run everything (kettle, cookers, washing machine etc) off batteries? Recharge via 900w solar (gives between 2 and 4kwh day depending upon season), 150 amp/4v alternator (gives about 90amps continuous at cruising revs and controlled temp) and lastly 100ah charge from 120ah mains charger using genset. Hope these numbers help. Lifepo4 is the game changer by a mile. I did diy, 400ah at 24v with a v good bms and relays was euro5000.
Thanks for your channel, just found you and enjoying it whilst we live on our 57' mono
What a great job you did showing the power systems. I really enjoyed it. That is one big cat. Looking forward to the next z-log. GOD bless this family. JC
You guys certainly have your work cut out for you. Thank you for the run down on the boat, I think it’s a pretty cool boat. Cheers
Hi Keith Nice boat, Total respect to you guys
The one thing I like is a good solid depth sounder, one you can navigate from
You can see the bottom at 600 meters and rising 400, 200, 100, Beep beep. ...!!
All the best Guys look forward to more posting
Thanks for the tour - great video. Good to see guys you back on a boat!
Great boat and lay out. Well done and fair winds. You seem like a lovely family and I wish you all the best.
Excellent tour of your boat. Thanks!!!
Keith my boat is a 2009 model and it’s fine. It’s kinda fun doing things yourself and I know you are a hands on kinda guy so that’s fine. Enjoy !
You were a aircraft pilot but you know so much about the technicalities of the boat. Impressive.
Keith is a very smart and talented man. That boat is about as technical as it gets….
Great vid. I am always impressed with the fact that everyone knows how you should improve YOUR yacht. BTW... I did the research, after finding this beauty withinYOUR budget, you only need $3.25 million to implement everyone else’s suggestions so that they are happy with YOUR boat. 🧐
Great boat guys very loaded and spacious we are super happy for you and looking forward to see you enjoying it thumbs up as usual
Very informative video , learnt quite a bit . My favourite kind of video
💙it! Been waiting to see this video. What a great upgrade!!
Oh yeah! Capt. Kieth... I'm about your build but only 5'11"... Wait a few more years and you won't even demo putting your legs in there it will be so hard to get out... thank God the kids aren't going anywhere for a while. My got older and now I have to pay everyone to do everything - beware of of the next six years in the old back-ee... What a boat, and super family, God loves you for sure!
Great boat system tour. Well done. Look forward to seeing your first sailing.
I'm pretty excited that y'all are pumping out videos again. I can't wait to hear your personal experiences with the pros and cons of a cat vs monohull. I know y'all don't shy away from hot button topics! 😂🤣
mono will torch a cat sailing upwind , main difference that i know of but for the amount of space you get in comparison , worth it
Talk about a great boat for your family. Looking forward to your reports on the differences between the mono hull and the cat, besides the obvious. good luck to you and your family with the new boat.
Well that was some great inside details Keith. Great camera works René.. thanks and best from HKG 🇭🇰
Great video and appreciated seeing the guts. I really like it and yes it will take work but it will be your hand, not to mention the education for the kids.
Thank you both for a very interesting and thorough Z-Log! What a beautiful and impressive vessel......
Super nice boat good buy great condition for a 2006 model lots of extras love it enjoy and fair winds
This is great information for a me as I’m just learning how to sail and maintain boats. Thank you!
Epic boat y’all. I think it fits you well. You have a great crew! Cheers, Ted
This was really smart Keith.
Keith I saw yesterday that the new Harness life jackets have epirbs that talk with AIS for MOB situations, also Zoning the solar probably is a better idea, might take multiple controllers, but that adds redundancy along with the expense.

Nice meeting you guys here at Samos hope your paperwork is working out soon and you can start your new trip. Bon voyage!
Congratulations on the new boat... and thanks for the videos...
Love your videos! Can't wait to see the new boat in action!
