Riley, please explain why the boat hums at speed:) Elayna you're looking and sounding so happy in this adventure, even more than normal
So many vlogs in a week,you guys are on fire🎉🎉
I love Anna
Too cool, really got to sea how your trip is going. Will check out your app.
You are approaching my hometown SETO Inland Sea！We are waiting for you！ようこそ瀬戸内海へ！
you need to make the app compatible with PC too ( for us ol salty's stuck in lubber mode )
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode
We are loving these videos guys AND the Sea People app! So many people have already joined in our local area!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the video! Thank you so much for showing us a part of Japan I never knew existed. I knew Japan is made up of a series of islands, but hadnt appreciated that of course a number would be small, remote and beautiful.
Oh I’m loving these daily videos!
Great video. Am I missing the Idles link?
I enjoy your videos ~ however I was a bit taken aback with Luke’s comment regarding the no anchor rule in the fishing areas. It might seem ridiculous to you but I thought you of all people would have more regard for a rule in another country in an area where people get there food source and possible make a living from. I’m mean to say the rule is ridiculous and you’re going to do it anyway!? More info is wanted on the subject 💕
Yeah, I love these multiple part videos, too!
Hey Groovers! Love you guys, and have watched since inception. You've come along way and inspired a lot of people to live their Dreams, and to do it all with your attractive Aussie personalities is pleasing to watch. Great to see you as a solid family now continuing the journey. I noticed you mentioned about the lack of traffic in the area of travel with this video, and also about Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. I assume, and I'm hoping that there is still a Stigma amongst the locals relating to the uncontainable toxic outfall which was created when the 2011 Tsunami destroyed the Plant, sending unprecedented Radioactive waste into the Pacific Ocean, producing massive Fish/Marine/Bird kills and ongoing mutations across the WHOLE of the Pacific, with catastrophic events happening across the US Eastern Seaboard, Alaska and Canada, which wont be eradicated any time soon. 13 years ago this happened, and it all seemed to be swept under the carpet pretty quickly, i assume to appease the gullible majority to thinking that there are no health concerns! Well there are, and will be for generations to come. I have lived and worked off the Ocean, and it is my Religion, for without it, I would not exist! We as Humans are 75% water, Earth is 75% water, so it would seem fair to be aligned with the magic it portrays! I don't want to come across as a Conspiracist, rather a Truthist, but just be aware of what you consume, and where from. I have grave fears for the area you are heading to, which will carry battle scars for some time, and affect our bodies, future generations and ecosystems! Kudos for you guys going off the beaten track to show us followers your travels, allowing us to live vicariously through your eyes, but please don't expose your 2 beautiful boys to the most toxic contamination that us humans have created! Just my thoughts after a couple of Gin and Tonics. Love from Dongara. West Oz!
Can’t get the smile off my face. Thanks guys.
wow and wow
I do wonder where everyone sleeps if it is pouring with rain. Sorry to go on about that. I still feel sad seeing the children during the day, sleeping on the floor or kitchen seat because the kitchen table is in use and they have no berths! Extraordinary. Also, is there some sort of inflateable life boat on board for someone overboard or for all seven if necessary? The videos are certainly impressive which is why they are so successful. Japan is truly exciting. Perhaps we have slightly lost the feel that this is a family adventure. It is more a racing boat with crew designed for lightness and speed. Thank goodness for the wonderful Ellie.
You mentioned you were looking for some chandlery.
Riley and Elayna, we watch your life's adventures faithfully, and we are always finding many interesting things about the real rigors of sailing the world's ocean’s.
We find our greatest jot, however, watching the amazing development in Lenny and Darwin's lives. Those two are growing up in a world of wonders.
I'm not sure if this has been asked, but is seapeople app only for people at sea?
Sorry i have another question is there a watch/ ankle bracelet or clothing tag that you could wear, so if you fell off the boat you could be found?
Can you let us know how you would handle a person overboard?
You guys have a beautiful family, inside and out. Thanks for sharing your lives with the rest of us. In a world full of chaos and negative news, it's a breath of fresh air to escape it for a while and mentally join you all on the water.
I love how you can use the Lord's name in vain but bleep out the F bomb. Too funny. I do love your videos though. Watching for quite some time.
Riles and I can't wait to hear what you all think… 🤗 Download SeaPeople today and let us know your thoughts in the comments below… (it's FREE!): https://seapeopleapp.com/slv
