I love becka's infectious optimisim and happiness, it shines through in the videos! Good to see you so happy after your difficult sail! Bonaire looks amazing!
You are right. The U.K. Government wants to leave the European Court of Human Rights for one reason and one alone. So it can remove the rights from U.K. citizens. They will make us slaves with invisible chains.
It’s wonderful watching Becka’s smiles and twinkling eyes at each new Discovery or adventure, but this one has been the very best! You both fit in so seamlessly to Bonaire and everything about it. It’s almost like you were the “resident’s” that were telling us about your home…….
So very sad to see how the reefs have died away and no longer flourish with the life they once had. And yet the sea-life and island surroundings are so magical. How awesome Rowan was to take you around. Exciting adventures become cherished memories. Congrats on accomplishing another bucket list milestone!
This was the best reef we have seen in the whole Caribbean! Tobago Quays was amazing but some of the reef was still quite dead which was so sad to see. Rowan was a legend, so happy he took us around and showed us some cool spots ☺️
Becka: I'd like to compliment you on your editing and sound. It's a pleasure, indeed to watch and listen to your commentary. Yeah, Zack does a commendable job - but you're much prettier and more articulate during those early watch-hours. You bring us into your private visions and observations. You are one of a very small number of couples sailing on UTube today, which provide realistic and honest emotions regarding sea experiences and landfalls. You have the ability, capability and determination to provide realistic and visually pleasing videos regarding questions and your answers of seafaring living. Blue skies and fair winds.
Hey, hot tip!!! If you use your spinnaker pole on the foresail halyard, you can use the winch to turn it into a crane for your dinghy. Use some spare dockline to makeup a picking sling for your dinghy. It makes a much smoother operation, and it lets you use the dinghy as a basket to lower stuff down to the water. It also makes it WORLDS EASIER to get groceries on board! 😂
A lovely video guys and I think its your best to date - I do like your new video format & quality and you have come on leaps & bounds as presenters - cinematic standard . I really liked the cave diving segment and the segment where you were kite surfing together - Just keep bloody doing it ! R x
This is one of your best episodes. The cave diving was epic! Also I have never seen squid ink just floating like that under the surface. How cool. Thanks for putting out such quality videos.
Wow, Hello hello guys....Teulu TARDIS took you to an amazing underwater world- so beautiful!!!! Love the new ACTION PACKED opening- Becca as a backrider???? Who knew! And Zach too!!! I remember moments in Thailand on a porch in a hammock watching water go by....was amazing just like for you. The little car on the map thing was cute...Now a descent into the bowels of the Earth- very action adventure!!!! Glad you didn't run into any Weeping Angels down there...scary if the lights go out......CAVE SPIDERS ARrrrggghhhh....and you successfully identified BEANS- very British!!! Thanks for the Viddey...
Another interesting and enjoyable video. As I neared the end of it real life intervened and it was necessary to poke the pause button. When I returned to watch the ending I was greeted by what may be the best Heinz Beanz commercial yet.😁 22:04 . 👍👍
Good morning Teulu. I don't know if I've seen you happier since I discovered you two. What an amazing place. Cave diving.....maybe at your age, but I seem to have lost the edge for that sort of thing as I have gotten older. Freaky summed it up pretty well. Thanks for sharing. I love that you take the time to take us along. Be safe. ❤🙏
I am a little surprised they didn't see any Dutch Gunboats. After all, it must take a lot of firepower to prevent the Chinese from ripping all the life right out of that reef. They do it everywhere else, just ask the Sea Shepherds.
Bestest ever. Love the no red tape we are so used to back here in the uk. If those caves were here you’d have to pay to go in. And you certainly wouldn’t be able to piggy back with a kite surfing outfit. Amazing. Try adding a knob of butter to those beans and salt and pepper for an astonishing result. Thank you for sharing.
I love your content (which I'm sure I've mentioned before). Am I the only one who notices that Becka's underwater face always seems to be frowning however? You're enjoying the best part of the ocean, smile a little bit! :D :) Keep up the adventures! I hope to run into ya'll in an anchorage somewhere someday!
Wow Bonaire is beautiful. Those caves awesome. Guess it's best to dive them with a local. How neat is that the fact they do not get hurricanes, Those huts the slaves lived in where they mined salt 6 to 8 per hut. I find that hard to believe. If true the death rate would have been very very high. Also how cruel and inhumane to have a fellow human live like that. Enjoy your time there and looking forward to next awesome video.
As I set here on my lanai, and watch the moon setting on the Pacific ocean. I am having some Kona coffee and injoy your latest video. Thank You for a Great video. Your videos give me Great joy. And a bit of a Escape! For a short time. I don't if you know what has happened on Maui but it is sad very sad news. You see a few weeks ago the entire town of Lahaina was burned down to the ground. There is over 1000 people still missing. They believe over half are children. A town of 4500 has lost over a 1000. It hit so fast that over a 100 ran and jump into the ocean to escape the flames. So if you could say a prayer for the people of Lahaina Maui. They need all the help they can get. Ok until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii!🌋🥂
I visited Maui a number of years ago and stayed in a hostel in Lahaina for 2 weeks and absolutely loved it there. Sadly the hostel was also completly destroyed by the fires on the island, but thankfully everyone who was working and staying there managed to get out. However, it is devastating how many lives and communities it has destroyed! I hope you and your family managed to stay safe and that situation improves ❤️ We can't imagine what it must have been like.
Thanks, I really look forward to your videos, if you are into caving and diving Norbert Casteret- Ten Years Under the Earth is a must read, one of the earliest cave explorers he was swimming through in deep caves with only a candle and matches! But what he found... Well won't spoil it if you haven't read it! Take care both, happy travels.🙏
Well guys..Now you know why The Kingdom of Holland never gave Bonaire away. Still a sort of colony. Our King Willem goes there at least two times a year. And great to hear that Zack's omi is Dutch. Where does she live?
Congratulations on achieving your dreams, your videos are very well produced and you two work so well together. I have a Legend 33 now based in Conwy, Dom from Cadoha did my rigging whilst he was on a work break last year and my adventure last year was sailing from Southampton to Conwy 😁 Oh how I would like to be in Aruba now! I look forward to your updates, all the best Cliff
Hello peeps, remembering your proposal vlog and the thought of church bells and last week’s lightening made me think of a church lightening conductor. Asking for a friend (😂) could you use the same idea, fore mast and main mast joined with cable and then a piece chucked over the side. Downside it might make you more attractive!!
Loved the underwater and cave pictures. So glad you are enjoying Bonaire, it truly is breathtakingly beautiful. What’s next on your bucket list? Are you planning doing much sailing during hurricane season, or are you just going to hop around the ABC Islands for a few months?
@@TeuluTribe Well, I am subscribed to dozens or most of the other sailing channels and they have all been to the same places you guys are at, but you are bringing a different flavour to this that I am really enjoying. Don't know what it is yet, but your videos are really enjoyable and when I get disappointed that it has ended, then I know it's been a good watch. That's what I have been getting from your videos of late. So well done to both of you and thanks for sharing the journey. From and old bloke in the Great Southern of Western Australia.
so, the first sailing channel I discovered on RU-vid was Sailing Uma, and they visited these same islands, and small houses. It's just really cool to see y'all visiting these same places, and sharing a new perspective
guess it's too early for me, I was like "no way that Rowan/Roan has lived there all his life" (however you spell it, sorry for butchering his name 😢 ) cause he sounds too dutch.... then I remembered, bonaire IS dutch 0.o the ABC islands ( aruba, bonaire and curacao for those wondering) were dutch colonies. Anyways, as a diver (and someone who wants to learn how to sail), bonaire and the other 2 abc islands are definitely on my bucket list as well :p
Sick spot indeed! Used to kite somewhat regularly at a lake here in Oklahoma, but haven't in a while. Did you guys take any lessons? Another great way to experience the water. Becka may need a little 6 meter kite so as to not blow away 🤣
Oh my Universe, how EPIC was this vlog, gotta say my bloody heart was in my mouth when u were in the caves, I was really concerned about the tide changes, if they affected the caves system at all. Please don't scare me like that again, I'm an old Salty Wench😲😭🤣 I can see a kite board sitting on the bow of Teulu soon. Wait till u see the Australian Great Barrier Reef and our awesome coastline. Ooh La La. Luv yas 🇬🇧🇦🇺🤗👍🏳️🌈
Haha we will always be super safe! We want this trip to last forever after all 😆 would love Kite surfing gear- maybe one day! Oh and Aus is on the list, maybe in a few years time 😉
Wow, another Destination to add to the list. I think I’d be stocking up with sea salt there for Pickling things with tbh.❤ Best Wishes and Fair Winds. Bob still Landlocked in Wales(though thinking about picking up a cheap Sailboat to tide me over and get to Florida with as I’ve had the damned heating on Morning and evening for Five Weeks now. This is getting silly. 🤣🏴🇬🇧⛵️🌟🌟🌟
Oo that would be a good use of the salt- maybe not the ones people have licked though 🤣 would be lovely to pick a boat up there, just gotta watch for the big weather coming to Florida at the moment!
@@TeuluTribe Must admit I love pickling, and used to do lots of Onions, Pickled abbage, Pickled eggs etc, and Pickled in 50% home made Vodka, Liqueurs to be ready for Christmas, but my kid sister, had to have some Pickled eggs hidden from her, or they'd all be gone lol. Still waiting for the Silver Bullion to fill up my Piggyba k, but this winter, could be ok for a tide e over Boat, as imho, there are goingbto be huge numbers of people desperate to offload Boats they can no longer afford to keep. Could be worse than the 2008/2009 Crash by the look of it, some analysts have been saying that the US Federal Reserve Note dollar is already Dead , but the Fundral will be held in October. That is likely when Silver starts to Really Take off, Peak price of Silver higher than the Gold price according to Financial Cycles, is July 2026, prior to a Massive Global Crash in 2027 - these from very reliable Cycles Analysts such as Dr Charles Nenner. So No ember ish ? should be able to get a tidy Sailboat for a bit of Silver, just because I'll be able to save the boat and keep it in great shape. Far better than poor owners being forced to Scuttle their Boats like last time. That was really awful, large umber were sunk just Offshore from California. One guy could no longer afford to e en Berth his yacht, so gave his buddy a harbourmaster, his 250,000 dollar yacht, because he knew he would look after it, plus with his job, he had a free Berth for it. Too Sad. 😒 Best Wishes and Fair Winds. Bob 👍 ⛵️✨️✨️✨️
Playing around in caves with sediments at the bottom is a bit iffy... be careful you guys. Its known for catching out even experienced divers. 🧙♂️ 🤞🏼😉🇬🇧 from an old geologist.
Amazing, really. It's not that long ago you set off to sail from Britain "all the way" to the Canary Islands, which was a pretty big and gutsy jump to begin with. Then it was, hey, why stop there, and you went all the way across the Atlantic, to the Caribbean. And here you are, all the way in the ABCs, close to the coast of South America. I bet you didn't dream even in your wildest dreams you'd do all that. What's next on the menu?
I know, when we think about it, it all does seem like a bit of a dream, but also just a series of small steps. Still pinching ourselves about the whole thing though 😆 we are hanging out in the ABCs until the end of hurricane season before flying to the US in October for our first boat show!
Where guide line?! Please be very wary diving in caves, even if you think you know the system, Because you might not know it as well as you think you do. Lots and lots of open water divers have ended up dead in that part of the world. Blue holes and cenotes are serious mankillers. I did a bit of caving in my youth, and knew several cave divers. After a couple of years, I knew less cave divers, because most of them were dead. BTW, when Becs went to the dive shop and they asked her how long she wanted her fins, I'm guessing she said 'Yes'... Half woman, half Thresher shark...🦈
You are a beautiful daredevil couple and I admire you….Following you from Montreal, Canada, i`m a diver but not certified cave diving, it scares me diving in caves without my gears, anyway good bubbles to you from Pierre
Sorry to say Bonaire reefs have been ruined by excess tourism. I hope you get to visit and dive Indonesia, Raja Ampat near Misool are gin clear waters and full of life, especially Misool which is a marine protection area. It's full of life and one of the best dive areas in the world
@@TeuluTribe i'm a divemaster so i just rent tanks and weights and bring in all my gear, we hire a car for a few weeks and just dive all over the island, we also started windsufing there on our last trip, you can basically dive anywhere on the leeward side of the island by walking into the water, just be careful of diving between bonaire and klein bonaire, it gets deceptively deep (60m) and i know divers who have died there chasing scorpian fish, also be careful of the heat, when you are young you have a higher tolerance to heat like I did, but then I had heatstroke mountain biking in the tropics, now I cant handle anything over 27 degrees
I enjoy your channel and have followed you from the beginning. However, I do not appreciate being attacked for submitting a concerned messagae. I need to know if the attacker is related to your channnel is just a miscreant viewer?
This is a sailing channel? You’re getting a bit political there. Remember many of your viewers will be older and wiser then you both, and don’t need lectures from teenagers. Keep to sailing so we can stay friends ❤
