The animation bits get better and better! Love following you "legends!"

I’m so glad you have others on the boat to help with sailing if there was an emergency. Of course this is coming from a mother, grandmother and a ICU nurse of 40 years. Let me know if you ever want a grandmother and nurse on board. I love what you do.

Hello Riley, Elayna, Lenny & Darwin. I love your vlogs, as they remind me, somewhat, of my 35 yrs and 22 round the world sailing. Like you, I also raised 2 children (girl n boy) on our boats, until they were about 18 yo, when they departed to finish their own uni degrees.

A small piece about my boating life. At 25yo I sailed alone for 20 mths, when I returned to Aus, to respark my interest in a young lady, who I had corresponded with during all this time. She agreed to join me and "TRY" this sailing thing. Almost 30 yrs later, after travelling another 20 times around the world, raising our daughter & son, living on our 3 boats (a mono, & 2 cats), we departed company, due to my beloved wifes illness and eventual death. At the time I was sad, but as we all know, life must go on. Yes I have left out all the things we saw, did, how we worked and just made things happen. All is in my first book.

After uni, my son did return back to our boat, to live, as well as his partner. Now at 62yo, living with an extreme disability, I am unable to sail, but my son and now wife are carrying on with my legacy. I am still living life to the full, with my new younger filipino wife n daughter. Land locked has not stopped me from enjoying my already fulfilled life, I am blessed and was always blessed with the opportunities presented to me in the life I chose. Vlogs were NOT a thing done when I started in 1985, but with my mountains of travel logs, photos and diaries, I am now writing a few books on boat living and boat life.

Just my opinion, as each to their own. Raising 2 children on board boats, space is a must and an extreme necessity. I see the Rapido is a tri-maran, with only the middle hull used as walking / playing space. When we decided to move from a 34 ft "mono", to a 44 ft "cat", due to our 2 small children. The kids did learn balance, move around freely, with the more usable living spaces. As we "home skooled" our children, space was essential. This just my humble opinion, no more no less. I do trust you are making the correct decision for yourselves and for that I admire your drive.

NOTE: you remind me so much of myself and my late wife, larakins and happy go lucky pair of young adults. Never forget yourselves and who you are inside. Bless all 4 of you and may your sails be filled with wind and the waters are gentle as often as possible.

Just gonna say thanks for David. He is a SNACK!

[lilithhr]

This family really is one of a kind. They’re enjoying their lives, learning, teaching and raising two little boys now! Andd while doing all that, they give us all this amazing content. 😩✨I’ll never not support them! I hope their boys take on their traditions and are very very grateful!🥺❤️

If you get a wide pool noodle, cut a wide slit, you should be able to slip it on the sliding door and slide off when you need to close. Will give some cushion in case Darwin swings into the door. We did this to a couple of corners when our kids were little. Cheap and quick, should be able to find in any beach shop.

Every Monday I get out of my waitressing job and sit in my car for half an hour watching these video while I rest my feet. We’re super understaffed and it’s so much. Love this channel.

[Kwajdaddy]

Elayna, the blond is lovely! You are sooo pretty! Well done and thanks for the background story. Loving the video, particularly the stormy weather. as a Florida native, love the local thunderstorms for their beauty and how they refresh our whole environment. Lenny and Darwin are amazing little troopers! You and Riley should be very proud of the future they will present!

[megrduffy]

Hey guys! I am usually not one to post comments on YouTube videos, but I gotta say a huge thanks for your content. I am a teacher in NYC and this year has been a nightmare to say the least, so I've been using my favorite creators like you to keep me distracted and give a little bit of sunshine. I've been sick as since Wednesday, my first laugh in days was the animated bit in today's video. Thanks for what you do! Sending love and smooth sailing to your fam! ❤

[niccimiller]

Love the hair Elayna!! Bout time you went back. Now grow the bangs!! 😄

[davidendsley]

Elyna, your hair is beautiful as a blonde
Watching Darwin bounce in his chair reminds me of When Lenny did, but that now seems so long ago. It’s so good to see you all so happy being on the water.
Till the next, blue skies and fair winds

[TraneFrancks]

Elay, I think the blonde hair looks great. Not all that different, truthfully, than how you look at the end of a sun-drenched season with those natural, sun-bleached highlights. Suits you nicely!

[annperret]

Loved this episode. Enjoyed the science lesson about the waves/ocean, REALLY enjoy the spearfishing video and the tour of the boat was lovely! Thank you friends!

[BohemianBeatster]

Merry Christmas and Groovy Holidays to all aboard and those waiting SV La Vagabonde from around the world. Stay groovy and stay safe.

[tracy]

Have a wonderful Christmas all of you 💕💕

[mjmikaelson]

Lenny~ big rain clouds coming. Adorable

[theresataylor]

Loved this week's video, more content, love listening to Riley and David and Sarah had some input this week. Yay. Would love to see what culinary skills Sarah would bring to the kitchen, bet she will be great. Loved seeing more of Lenny this week to, this should happen every week, Loved it when Riley took him with David. He will be learning to sail soon.
