Great news but remember ''It's a jungle out **( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡° )**

[donaldshelton]

Great! I retired at 51. Sailed for 4 years alone. Went to South America. Live in Venezuela 1 year, Peru 1+ years, bought two cabins in the Patagonia/Chile and lived off the grid for 4 years. No city water or Electric. Built a house in Buenos Aires. Still own.Bought house with 17 acres in San Rafael, Mendoza, Argentina and planted 3400 plums trees and 300 other types. Horse chickens, rabbits and 3 dogs. Also pigs. After 7 years I sold that and moved back to Florida where I started. Wrote a book call "UnSunk" Not floating and not sinking. OH! got married to beautiful Argentinian. Dove the Great Barrier reef where I was attacked by a small shark. Visited most countries in South America. Dated Miss Costa Rica in Costa Rica. I will be 78 next month. With all that water on your new land you can start a fish farm. Keep going. Don retired telephone man and a Veteran. So I think you are as normal as can be.

I'm now 65 years old. I've had a boat since I was 5. I've sailed all over Florida and on south into the Caribbean. I love my boat but I like my land, my house and the animals that I have. I still grow veggies. As for the boat, I still have one. When you start a family, you'll need to be on land. Take the kids out boating when they can swim. Good luck to you. Life goes by really fast!

Good luck on your new venture. I think a lot of people feel let down by the channels that they support because those channels go really hard at selling the premise of their channel and trying to make it work as a business. You guys have been real from the beginning. That makes you one of the few that can transition to a new phase of your life and your supporters won't feel robbed of anything. God Bless

[perfectweather]

We started our farm just before covid. Its a lot of work but if anyone can do it you two can, good luck and enjoy the goats are jerks

[SilentPrepperFL]

I am so exited for you. I have placed my dreams on hold for so many years. Dreams of sailing, dreams of building off-grid. Exactly the kind of stuff you guys do in your channel. That's why I subscribed to your channel. You guys are an inspiration. Now, as a Puerto Rican myself living here in the US, I can't be any prouder of you two that have chosen my island. My mom is from Isabela and my dad from Las Marias... Thank you for showing the beauty of our island.

[DeVallibus]

I think that if anyone has any “hate” for you two it’s out of jealousy for living the dream on your terms. I’m just happy that you’re bringing us along for the ride.

[GlenHazmatTrahan]

As a relatively recent (just under 3 years) transplant from the great state of Texas to the great island paradise of northwestern Puerto Rico, I know why you did it. I will tell you contractors take island time to a whole new level. Taxes are a whole new issue if you build new vs remodel the original structure…that “great place for chickens” was the house that you will want to “remodel” or go through possibly years of getting permits to build new. Watch out while clearing that you don’t take down any of the protected trees…DRNA is rough! Congrats on the new journey, and bienvenidos a la isla!

[brucejones]

As an engineer who created a dream home on a jungle lot I have some ideas. Use ICF for your walls. Insulation, pest resistance and hurricane strong, that’s the house you want. Add some steel trusses, a SIP roof deck and a steel roof, you’re ready for anything. Try ground sourced AC, a backup generator, solar panels to make yourselves self sufficient. Good luck!

[MrAmoRay]

Absolutely loving your free spirits!! You're fearless in how you handle changes to things I could not even fathom how I'd be able to cope with on a minute scale compaired to you both.

[worldadventureman]

Youtubers are a unique breed. Considering what you have already done, documenting this next adventure should be just as entertaining for all us watchers. Go for it and enjoy the experience, good bad or ugly.

[weekender]

My wife and I took on building our own dream home at the ripe old age of 70. It's taken 4 years and we are now close to being able to move in. You two have proven you can do anything. Go for it. I bet most of your team here will follow along.

[lambac]

Hi Guys!

Initially I was sad to learn you were cutting back on boat life, but then I realized I don't watch your channel for the boat life (even though that's why I started watching the channel). I watch your channel because I like you guys, and I will continue to watch as long as you make videos. It's the people that keep you watching, not what the people are doing.

Uncle Matty is a hard worker and will get in there and get'er done. I'm sure you guys will develop your property just the way to want it.

Looking forward to the videos to come!

[ernestoroldan]

As a puertorican I can tell you that I'm happy about your decision and also that you pick up a beautiful place to start your new adventure. 1st advice, make sure to build a cover deck overlooking that view. Welcome (finally) to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

[AbeIsMean]

Y'all are one of the few channels that have helped spark my interest and calling to sailing. You two are authentic and stay true to the name of your channel. Thank you for the memorable moments and great lessons y'all have provided to your viewers. I love seeing you flourish and I can't wait to see what comes next for you. Y'alls children will be blessed to have you as parents. I look forward to seeing what comes next! In the mean time, I will be working towards my dream that you have helped cultivate. Thank you :)

[duboisdl]

Ok Matt, enough me me me. It should be we!
Good luck, rooting for you two

[boatsandotherproblems]

The best part of this is that Bear is going to have a wonderful time in her retirement!

[ibismpm]

We think this is a great idea and we can't wait to follow you on this new adventure. Really happy your not selling the boat. We watch your channel because of the two of you. You are a blessing.

[DIYNauticalDream]

Wow that's kinds sad and happy for you guys at the same time. You both have been a huge inspiration to us. We understand that need to follow the dream. We will still follow and wish you all the very best. Congratulations on taking the path less traveled.

[denisemeir]

Congrats! My husband passed May 16th he never missed a video, Mat your fun attitude/fighter gave him much laughter during his battle with cancer. Thank you guys for great times!
