What was the scariest moment you encountered? I am still getting caught up on these videos

Tim Newman - 5 years ago

I would love to know each of your top five places. Figured I’d make it easier than your favorite. Probably difficult with all the wonderful places you have been to. I would love to see you sail to Mozambique. Looked interesting.

Tim Newman - 5 years ago

I hope as your kids grow up they get their own boats and you all can sail together

That is such a beautiful boat...

You guys should have taken a clue from the Wynns, they overhauled their catamaran and changed the lines after purchase.

Kevin Russbach - 5 years ago

-- You avail a myriad of (travel/survival/community) exploration that has potential to render impressive results via your children's eventual pursuit of independence.
I hope the world community provides sufficient opportunity to support their further growth.
The course of my life is such that appreciation runs deep.
Thank you.

We have just found your adventure and love watching. I do have a question I saw you have Volvo motors but what size and also when you are motoring at say 10 knots what would you use in fuel consumption.

Well I just watched all your videos and I really enjoyed them. I have all kinds of question, like how do I talk my wife and kids into sailing full time. But the question I want answered the most is: What did Keith do with his grizzly bear Ben? And does his Indian friend Nakoma ever visit? Thanks, Matt

I grew up living aboard a 36' mono hull and was never seasick until I got aboard someones cat. They are more stable, but their movement is unpredictable. I'd rather rock comfortably then bounce around. Love your channel.

wishus knight - 5 years ago

My little family consisting of myself and my two adopted sons, now ages 11 and 13, had a similar prolonged traveling expedition. Albeit not on water but essentially in an older half pickup and modest camper, and a 6 foot cargo trailer. Total of 2 years on and off. (mostly on). That was our home. I sold our small condo, we pared down to what would fit in the truck and we took off across North America. The next one was even more ambitious in Europe, only this one was in a small motor coach. Total of over 80,000km.

We just finished up a month or so ago, and It is now strange to be living in normal home once again. Too much space. The only reason we stopped was from running out of money, and having to go back to work. Watching this channel makes me want to make the dive. My two sons are biological brothers, however I adopted the older one some 18 months after his younger brother. And he was rung through the system a bit. As a result he developed symptoms of mind detachment. After a year of a stable home and lots of love he was doing quite well, but still somewhat distant and found it difficult to really bond with either me or his brother. This trip is the best thing that ever happened to us, and the 3 of us are closer than i ever thought possible. And best of all they are both close with each other to the extent they sleep together even now.

godspeed friend.

wishus knight - 5 years ago

+Sailing Zatara Thankyou so much for the reply! Our plan didn't start out to be on the road continually. That just ended up happening! We took a couple of short excursions at first with both boys wishing they could have kept going, and next thing I know im selling the home I have owned for 15 years. The second year in Europe was an afterthought. I admit part of me actually looked forward to taking a break from travel, but only after a few weeks we are looking for a plan to get back at it. And I want to do so before the boys settle in too much.

There was many concerns from others over my older son's emotional state. That a constant moving about would make him regress. Most people do not realize that a home is largely made up of the people around you. As long as we were able to keep a certain level of certainty, and turn the rest into an anticipated adventure, both him and especially his younger brother both flourished. And we have met so many people that we want to go see again.

Sailing Zatara - 5 years ago

What an amazing story. I feel the same way about our kids; the reason we left the city was because the older two were getting involved in things that were not good; and no matter what we did it didn’t seem to pull them away from the distractions and perversions of the world. Until we left on the boat; We have never been closer to me kids and them to each other as we all are right now. Igor that reason, I never want to stop sailing!

Great video guys! really refreshing compared to other channels and love how you include all the small bits that makes life on a sailing boat and the laidback style! I once used to live on a sailing boat too, I was born on one actually at Las Palmas de Gran Canarias while my parents started their long journey around the world. I'm 32 now, Architect and living in Brisbane (Australia) but there is almost not a single day where I wish to go back to that lifestyle, leave the busy life behind, travel and meet like minded people along the way and form strong bonds. I can tell you know that my parents never regretted doing it and have so many good memories from sailing around the world. Instant subscribe :)

Sailing Zatara - 5 years ago

Wow, great story! And guess what?! We just arrived in the Canaries!!!! Not yet to Las Palmas but heading there soon.
Thanks for watching! Cheers!

Jeffrey Robbins - 6 years ago

Hi guys. Enjoy the VLOG. BUT! Before you spend another penny on fancy, and admitadly sexier, electronics fix your running rigging. Boat safety first. Standing rigging, running rigging, ground tackle and engine. Then the comfort stuff. Great family. Sail on!

Darrell Carter - 6 years ago

Hi great video as usual but just 1 question and one point . Question how much do you pay for PredictWind and what package do you have . Point - please please put a second line on when hoisting up the mast . The reason jack was going up was because a line snapped , as a professional sailor and marina manager I would always ensure riggers go up on two lines regards Darrell ⛵️⛵️

D McNamara - 6 years ago

Your epic videos are more entertaining than the shorter ones....feel like less is being compressed ....10 minutes makes a big difference. Still,great editing...just hope one of the Discovery Channels (a part of NBC),etc. does not pick you guys up and you sell-out for Bogus/Staged Reality Series. Please don't !

Gunnar Lihr - 6 years ago

Hi again, This is my personal profile.. the previous comment came in with my business one. Cheers. ;-)

Gunnar Lihr - 6 years ago

Hi Zatara Fam. In Mallorca, which is an awesome island, visit Port Andratx, an amazing protected bay which will take your breath with it's beautiful little town. Also on your way south, you guys need to visit Ibiza! Your oldest daughter will thank you for it. ;-) But then specially Formentera, smaller island south of Ibiza. Formentera is known for being the Mediterranean Caribbean, for it's white beaches, etc. Then on the way southwards, you can find one of Spains precious Pearls.... Altea, in Alicante province on Spains mainland. This is my home town. :-). It's just about 12 hr. sail on a 260º heading from Ibiza. Check it out on the map and enjoy the good food.

We are a fam of 4, me Gunnar Lihr (dad), Nina (mon), and our boys Victor (14) and Kimi (12). We have sailed quite a lot in the Mediterranean since we lived in Altea. Still got a house there. Now days we live in Helsinki, Finland due to work and offering the best possible schooling to our boys. We enjoy winter sports but sailing and anything to do with the sea is our passion. Well, since Im planning to someday head back south and sail the world in a catamaran, I do follow you from time to time. ;-) Too bad we are not in the area, we would have sailed to the islands to meet up with you and tell you all about the great spots in the Spanish Med. Which I will gladly do digitally as well.... :-). Just drop a line.

Wish you the best and good winds. Gunnar Lihr

I love watching your videos because you are just a goofy family like us. You just happen to be on a sailboat.

Mec Sexy - 6 years ago

As a mom of young boys, I am always amazed at how fearless and carefree-looking your kids are. I'm sure they get nervous sometimes but the fact that they are willing to try and do and push limits -- and you guys let them -- make for a more tangible childhood, I think.

Brenda Snow - 6 years ago

Another great video!!! Let the fun continue. Safe travels from Oklahoma.

david allison - 6 years ago

Such a great video. Did I hear Jack say "aye aye" when he was on the mast? Such fun living vicariously through yawl. Safe travels. Fair winds and following seas. :)

Silvana H. Santos - 6 years ago

This video just gave me a really good idea of how it feels, day to day, to sail around the world. I could never do that, couldn’t sit for so long inside a boat, day after day. But congrats on following your dreams. Be safe! More rain coming on Monday. Please stop in Marbella on the way to Gibraltar if you can.

oh yes you could, believe me, it's an easy transition....

Why do you not fly the USA flag. Is it because you would be governed by u.s. laws?

Scott Brown - 6 years ago

Can only imagine seller & taxman don't agree on the amount to pay. Otherwise it's (relatively) simple.

Sailing Zatara - 6 years ago

The Greek flag has not been deleted yet, unfortunately, so until it’s deleted and registered in the USA we have to fly the Greek flag. Closing on this boat has been a nightmare. Keith will discuss all the juicy bits once it’s all done. He’s eager to share his less than pretty experiences!

Welcome my friend.

Curtis Moffatt - 6 years ago

+daedster1 thanks just wanted to make sure

daedster1 - 6 years ago

+Curtis Moffatt ah, @10.10 I see sealant & a rivet, then @10.24 the welds you see. Safe vertical welds, rare to weld across a mast section. Looks good to me.

Curtis Moffatt - 6 years ago

+daedster1 no i see welds

daedster1 - 6 years ago

The spreader is attached to this plate - these are always only riveted to the mast, so, it's dirt you see.

Gordon King - 6 years ago

Thank you thank you for the 25min of escapisim. So enjoy you guys actually sailing and not just a travel vlog. Keith just cracks me up. I so enjoyed the safety at sea vid. I am addicted you guys. When are you guys going on to marine traffic as I can only find the old boat in Sydney?

Philip Freeman - 6 years ago

I think a good surplus cargo parachute way up above the bow would catch better wind .

Rectal Itch ( 2 thumbs up, not by the itch of course)...hahahah sorry... keep living the dream...

Bruce Malo - 6 years ago

I hear that a spritz of SALT WATER is really good for reducing rectal tissue.
Witch Hazel swabs across the "stern" are also effective.

Robert Gill - 6 years ago

I'm so jealous , your visiting one of my favorite port of calls. Palma De Mallorica Spain. Maybe not for the kids, but as a Marine on an amphibious ship, the liberty was great. Clubs never really closed. Also 1600 HRS is just 24 hrs clock, mostly used by the military. I'm sure before you attempt the Atlantic crossing your lines and sheets are up to the task. The only time I was violently sesick was crossing the Atlantic. Thanks for letting us travel with you guys. Are you using Rota Spain as you departure port?

Whats the Satellite ball on the back? and does it work?

SV Amandolin - 6 years ago

highly suggest a secondary line when going up the mast. Twice have seen halyards snap with someone in Bosun's chair and thankful for second safety line.

Jeff Jvancich - 5 years ago

Couldn't agree more. I was scrolling down to see if someone had brought it up.
I always use a second line or at least a prusik loop onto another rope whenever I climb my mast.
Especially when you think about the reason he needed to go up there.
Stay safe.

Drzee1968 - 6 years ago

Not sure if you did, but good practice to have a second safety line when going up the mast, just in case the first failed, that is a long way down. PS loving your videos

Mike Ferguson - 6 years ago

I prefer two lines and 2 different harnesses. Each line to a different harness. One as a belay and the other the main one

To get it hotter I would be my guess as that's why you usually heat things.

Quakeboy02 - 6 years ago

I love you guys, and I want to see you sailing together for a long, long time. So, I hope you'll accept a couple of criticisms in that spirit. 1) Where's your hard hat Keith? If that sinker hits you in the head, your son may wind up coming down the fast way. 2) Where's the second line with someone else (in a hard hat) belaying with a couple of loops around a winch? OTOH, bonus point for using a bowline instead of a shackle on the bosun's chair.

I enjoy climbing the mast and being on top. But, it's an inherently unsafe activity that only takes a couple of extra minutes to make quite a bit safer.

Mauro Neves - 6 years ago

Another great video! Would be cool to have a video giving a feedback on the electrical upgrades! I´m always curious to see real feedback from real users!

And I see you finally got the channel monetized! Don't know how long you've had ads, but i just remember Renee saying she doesn't know how to do it a while ago hehe. But I'm glad to see you have it sorted out, as I think every creator should have them!

daedster1 - 6 years ago

+Jamppa That's it, yep, utube are draining googles bank, still say google is evil though. Sad but I always were dubious when they started out with their search engine etc they would become a 'country' in their own right. ah shuddup Ed lol, great vlog this one huh!

Jamppa - 6 years ago

+daedster1 no, its just that a while ago they hadn't set it up. Then youtube changed the qualifications so not every channel can have ads. (me for example because of the channel size)

daedster1 - 6 years ago

na, it's utube I believe changed the way vlogs are posted, so, every channel needs to re-set the way they post vlogs, another evil google thang

Great video, as always! If you are staying around Palma for a couple of days, be sure to visit the island of 'Cabrera'. It's a protected natural reserve off the southern coast of the island. You'll have to book your buoy online but can then spend the night in a fantastic setting (and have a little walk to the beautiful castle - and maybe get a drink on your way there!). Enjoy!

At any particular time when the sails are up, the wind is blowing your hair and the motors are off. What bearing are you speaking of wearing out if the prop is spinning backwards? Thank you! Loved the video. Beautiful family and Looking forward to the next one.

With all the lines snapping and what not, how do you know the one Jack is dangling on won’t snap when you send him up the mast. When will Keith go up?

The First Mate deserves a Safety Line.

Bert Cox - 6 years ago

Could be wrong but A that was probably a new line as its the one you rely on to fix all the other ones. B Jacks 120 pounds is way less force than a sail puts on a line.

Another lovely episode that has allowed me to escape from land...

I appreciate that you show the efforts of dealing with the sails and all of the lines.

Thanks Zatara Family

No heat exchanger for hot water from main engines? Unusual!

Gunnar Lihr - 6 years ago

Yeah... I was also wondering? But if the budget approves ..... get a water heater..... a big one since you got a bunch of teenagers!!! ;-)

I didn't understand that. The "water heater" (calorifier?) in Ep.49 https://youtu.be/gAVhsSpS2X0?t=966 isn't providing for showers?

That rectal itching, sounds like bacteria from oink oink, the carcinogenic they spray it with doesn’t kill all. Scavengers are not food. Leviticus 11. Or, not, free will. Dig it? Lol

IMHO the point of having longuer videos in simply we enjoy watching sailing in general, especially us northern hemispherers which have to put our boats on blocks now and 3 weeks ago :(

Yngve Bjørndal - 6 years ago

Hi there, nice to see u again. :) i used to live in Menorca as a kid, and there are some amazing places there, all over the Island there are Taulas ( Tables ) from megalithic age, and a two floor stone house from same period, there are also a cave where father and son lived as outcasts and stole food from the villages around, they also kidnapped a young lady, one year it was so cold that it was snowing, and that day the villagers found them following the steps in the snow. ( the cave is a restaurant today ) . My father build a house ( Sa Taula ) in an village on the Island , called Fornels, the house are today protected by government. so next time you go to the area, take a trip and have a look at some amazing historical places. :) ( Google: Menorca.Taulas. Sa Taula )
Anyway, have a great further travel,
Best regard from Norway.
PS. excuse my bad inglish, it is not my language. :)

Once again, great realistic video from you guys.... so glad it's not about the " me " factor like many others that have lost themselves in...... you guys are a great family !

pate allan - 6 years ago

I toured a 42 manta (I think). Huge, Huge. Your 58' must be a monster. So it doesnt roll that much like a monohull? Well, size matters. The USS Enterprise doesnt roll much either. Of course it's kinda expensive too. Keith needs Preparation "H". Thats gotta be a problem as sea. Yikes !! Its the little things that can be big problems.

Michael Goettsch - 6 years ago

I just realized how nice it is to watch a video where I'm not being told to listen to an audio book using this sponsors app, avoid the use of plastics, don't do something fun like take a cruise, how bad the American medical system is, oh and give us money so we can keep sailing around on other people's money and avoid having to live like most of the rest of the world.

It's kind of refreshing actually.

+jessie k Not a kool comment. The belittling of others is not what solves problems and promotes growth. Sadly too many people do what you do. And its divisive. Maybe show a little more empathy for another person's point of view before making such ignorant statements.

⛵️ Michael Goettsch Also (wonderfully) missing is the complaining about how hard it is to make and edit videos. Editing is what makes a great video great and Renee does a great job (and she doesn’t complain about the time/effort it takes)!! ⛵️

Buenos dias, el catamaran "No Worries" tiene canal de youtube? Gracias y buena mar!!!

Chuck Chalfant - 6 years ago

The screening plastic is called "eisenglass" or "isinglass" which is a carry over from its old processing name. While the new stuff isn't made from Eisenglass anymore, the industry still calls them that. One way to keep them better looking is to never fold them, but to roll them up when storing them for the hotter months. Some folks swear that glass cleaner is terrible for them and only use furniture polish to help buff out the tiny scratches. I'd ask sailing/boating forums for how they clean theirs.

Rodney Morgan Brown - 6 years ago

Rectal itching...... sitting in a bath of Epsom salt with your cheeks spread open would solve that.....

Sailing Zatara - 6 years ago

He doesn’t really have rectal itching! It was a joke. (And Anna isn’t really going to Harvard...that was also a joke). Maybe we joke too often?!

Finn and Jack should do a tactical dinghy launch while underway. With Finn in charge. Because pirates...or zombie gummy bears.

Hi Family Amazing sailing! Love you're work and vlogs

Owen Potter - 6 years ago

Of course we know Keith has no filters! As for your guys habit of dunking sails in the sea.......I don't see this as something that will catch on amongst other cruisers. And Jack..........."I don't wanna die. I don't wanna die. That wouldn't be good." Classic! And Anna violating his chestal area. (Nipple. Gasp!). So much in one episode!
