Good on ya mate, its so cool to have a Father and Son trip away from everybody. Im 54 and brings back vivid memories of a young fella and my Father taking me away Hunting off the gun aswell as Fishing with him. ❤❤❤ Nothing beats it. And the very reason I myself have an attraction to explore, Hunt & Fish aswell as being alone out in the Wilderness of Australia.

Is this a repeat as I feel like I've seen this episode before?

another 10/10👍 ?: why aren't 5th wheel caravans more popular? They are so much safer to tow and better off road. (bumper hitch contributes less than 1% of their mass to traction/steering/braking) ??????

Hey mate i'm a bushy from FAR NTH QLD and the Gulf. So you know for future reference. Its frowned upon to put your hat on the table and is considered up in the bush as BADLUCK. So DONT DO IT AGAIN. You may well get a strike of luck when Fishing if you do so. Dont stress , I learnt the hard way of OLD TIMERS at the dinner table on Cattle Stations in the FAR NTH that gave me the tip and would never do it again. It goes also for putting your socks on the table in the morning before you put them on.🤨😏👍

@@TripInAVan all good. What program do you use to make your vids? And nah, no control over the ads. But what you can do once you sort out how to increase your volume, play your vid along side adverts before you export so that you can get an idea of the level they should be at.

@timwilde4200 3 месяца назад

I'm curious - I loved the dad and son trip away together, especially the part with the turtles at night, but if the crocs love feeding on them, how do you know which beaches are safe and which ones aren't? Or don't the crocs make it up to that island?

URGENT! Hey guys what's going on with your Facebook page for the past two weeks I've had a couple of notifications supposedly from Justin that I've won something the last one was today from Bec's birthday post last year. I think your page has been hacked and maybe you better check it out. I haven't clicked on the link to collect as it doesn't seem to be legit especially from last year. Let us know how you get on please.

@lostfrog7997 Год назад

Hi Justin. Just saying, @ 5min and 22 sec, where you are pulling the motor out.. if you were to move the swivel support bracket bolt forward (towards the top of the motor) by 3 inches you would be able to slide the motor out and lower it down without hitting the top of your canopy a bit easier.. luv your shows..
