Congratulations James .. been following you since Fiji and been back through your passages from LA . Lost touch with some of your NZ adventures but good to see you are in Sydney my home town but I’m now in Perth . Enjoy your well deserved celebration and I admire your achievement. Take care. The East Coast is great
Welcome to Australia, love your passages . . . Loved you heading States to Hawaii and what you had to do there when you lost your rudder. Was amazed with how you did that. I look forward to you stories whilst here in Aus. Enjoy. Mark Gold Coast.
Im a newby currently catching up on your past videos, im hooked, never sailed in my life but i love watching your journey, the sense of freedom, peace, nature & your visuals are amazing. Great couple too. Thank for taking me along 🙏🏻🇬🇧
Great ...we saw you in Whangarei James and now you're in Oz ....Rhonda ....free spirit too..good on you both !!Jeremy Dawn ps Subscribed Rhonda, be advantageous for sure!
So enjoying watching your videos!!!!!!! We’re right behind you.. sea adventures… the good, the bad and the ugly. John Schneiders Wild Life here on the tubes. Your rudder loss is a great learning tool. Glad you made it through.
If you won’t a good read , 500 Days by Serge Testa , not a big book. About a bloke who built a 12 foot alum sail boat in Brisbane, then like you hopped solo from place to place around the world. The size of the boat made it a hole new level, good read cheers
@@SailorJames Your not joking 😂...its a giant frigging continent... its best part of a year just to sail round ...even if you dodge the weather and the wildlife 😂 🧙🏻♂️. Take a look at the wooden boat they are selling on Flying conies. Lol.
Hey, great live stream both of you, do you have Rhondas TH-cam channel link? I can't see it in the description, I live in my campervan so would love to see what Rhonda cooks up, thank you 🤘👍
Love watching your journey. Very inspiring. I have messaged back and forth on Instagram. When you first started I saw you come together and was like soul mates they are. ❤
Gosh! Coffs Harbour! You’ve really been moving along! From where you are, I suggest go right around the continent and reach Tasmania that way. That way you’ll get to go through the Kimberly coast. Be prepared to go without refuelling or refreshment stops. There aren’t any for hundreds of kilometres.
I’m so glad that you have found each other I’m no Cupid but I was trying to pick up something else to say but just but I’m not cute. You guys do you I love it.
Hi James, and Rhonda, it’s funny how you can get stuff out of the states fast then you can buy hearing in Australia or New Zealand. I buy stuff for my can-am Ryker and faster half the price you are bored here in Australia , 🇦🇺. Keep up the good work. You guys can’t wait to see you both together again in Australia. I really appreciate you both Cliff from Queensland Australia. If you ever get to the Gold Coast in Queensland give me a shout and I’ll take you out and about give you is a good feed And show you some sites
Missed your live as it was in the early morning hours here in Denmark. Any plans visiting Scandinavia during your circumnavigation? Or are you going around south Africa and heading up to the Carribean?
I love your channel. I have a 44 ketch in Sydney Harbour. Swim all you like in the day time. No issues. Strongly advise against swimming in the early eve, night and early mooring. Otherwise no issues.
@@SailorJames well you cared enough to reply , and relatively quick too. So now that I know you read this I’ll say it again and I’m not alone. Unsubscribed from the hoe.
I had nothing but bad luck in Lake mac..with mechanics ...they just don't won't work on small yachts..especially the local marinas they are just friggin rude...and arrogant...or they haven't got a clue what there doing
Do you actually think someone would sell their car and move to another country onto a small boat with someone if they did not have confirmation that that person loved them? Pretty simple math.
so happy for you James that you met your mirror in life .
I know right! Love is the air!
Glad you had a great trip across the ditch, and to be back with Rhonda again!!!!!
Rhonda you look very well! They say that boat life comes loaded with health benefits. Im a believer.
From Germany... you 2 are Rock-Stars ! ❤
Fun to share your journeys with a companion…nice shirt James I know you like all mammals and animals and sometimes they need help from us to survive
Thanks! So enjoy seeing you so happy ! Keep up the fair winds ! Much love 😊
Thank you so much 🙏🏻

Glad you made it safely. I leave in the USA in NE Oklahoma.
Hi from Whangarei NZ glad you got across safe
Been following you for a very long time your having a great time something I have wanted to do I've been a commercial fisherman all my life
Don’t “hug the coast” for safety, but for the scenic opportunities. This is particularly in the Kimberley, which is just spectacular.
We are not visiting the kimberlies because they are down wind of Darwin, Can’t see it all.

@@SailorJamesreminds me of the Grateful Dead song “They Love Each Other”.

Welcome to Australia you guys. I live in Melbourne. As always love your channel. If you happen to sail to Melbourne would love to meet you both.
I’m so glad that you have found each other I’m no Cupid but I was trying to pick up something else to say but just but I’m not cute. You guys do you I love it.

I'm solo and my watermaker is vital. Some guy told me they break. It's a boat, everything breaks. Fix it.
You may feel enjoy having it but I assure you it is not “vital”
Happy for you m8
Missed your live as it was in the early morning hours here in Denmark. Any plans visiting Scandinavia during your circumnavigation? Or are you going around south Africa and heading up to the Carribean?
We will visit Scandinavia on the next east about circumnavigation
@@SailorJames great to hear. By then, I would be glad to provide you with any info.
Aloha from Maui
Aloha
Hey guys
Where abouts in NZ is Rhonda from? Come check out Hokitika when you drive up the West Coast
She is from Auckland
James I reckon you have meet a Kiwi girl of your dreams. Have fun guys. Love your videos Kiwi sailer.
I hope Rhonda can document sailing learning on her channel, like lessons learned each day.
Her channel will just be for cooking aboard but there are some videos on her insta of her learning some stuff instagram.com/rhonda.of.triteia/
Look forward to seeing cookin at sea, Rhonda!
(Top secret: her first episode drops today!!!)
WOOHOO 🙌🎉❤
Wow. An entire hour and no one asked about pirates or UFO's! How refreshing 🤣🤣😂🤣😂
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
OMG
I even got a reminder to watch this and still missed it
Hahaha Darwin has the worst coverage ever
I hope it was a great trip
Will watch soon
❤🎉
Rhonda Beautiful Woman to find...H I pefully ggreat vibrs on future sailing😊❤😊
Hi Hi
How long are you guys hold up for in Coffs harbour and where to from there
Only a day
Would have been nice to hear Ronda tell us what she was doing on her cooking channel, don’t hog the mike
Then make sure you go subscribe to her channel
🙌⚡️💫✨⚡️💫✨⚡️💫🙌
So if a certain person gave you "two" a bigger (45 ft) almost perfect different mono, would it be too hard to put T. into a museum?
We don’t need a bigger boat 👍🏻
I love your channel. I have a 44 ketch in Sydney Harbour. Swim all you like in the day time. No issues. Strongly advise against swimming in the early eve, night and early mooring. Otherwise no issues.
In California we don’t swim at dusk / dawn as well because it’s too “sharky”
how much time in a week do you spend making ,editing,and uploading to u tube?????????
I can edit a regularly weekly video (20min long) in about 3 hours. Filming I usually have about 1 hour worth of footage for a 20 min video
So the lone sailer isent a lone saler any more? And how long you actully been in oz?. You mist tassy and vic james 2 beautiful places.
Can’t see it all. I arrived in mid February
She seems really nice James and well suited to you congrats mate.
Not just crocs! Box jelly fish!
We will be there after stinger season but for sure a concern
Is you website tracker tracking?
No, my iridum go failed in the Tasman so there is no real-time tracking at the moment
The sharks are not as bad as the crocodiles and the box jellyfish. They will both kill you very quickly.
You missed coromandel, so u missed pies, mussels n oysters, bro!
Can’t see it all
Yeah , to be brutally honest, I enjoyed the solo man sailing videos. No offence intended.
Not offended and I also don’t care 🤷🏼♂️
@@SailorJames well you cared enough to reply , and relatively quick too.
So now that I know you read this I’ll say it again and I’m not alone.

That was my experience to when I called around until I found Dave at Advantage Diesel
hav you told her you love her you should
lol chill out mate

@@SailorJameslmao
Rhonda, I’m going to enjoy your cooking channel to vegan plant based girl
4:55 Lake Macquarie is the largest salt water lake in the southern hemisphere. 👍🇦🇺🦘
Yep yep
@SailorJames I found you through an interview with Holly about 8 months ago. Enjoy Oz while here.
