Wow! It's all getting very exciting for you guys. Congrats to John on the new position 👍.
& Thank you for the "sailing course" competition - what a great way to give back to your fan base ... although your videos are more than enough 😊.
Safe travels

Great giveaway good luck to everyone. One of the best sailing channels I watch. Can't wait for the future with Kristian's and John adventures. Really gonna miss Tucana.

That was a very interesting video. Fair winds on your next adventure. I've really enjoyed all your adventure. Coming into Brisbane reminds me of sailing into Chicago on the Great Lakes. It was amazing watching the city rise out of the water and being moored right downtown near Navy Pier was just a joy. Wednesday night fireworks off Navy Pier didn't hurt either. Perhaps when you head to Europe we may get a chance to run into you two. My wife and I are just about to set sail on a two year voyage from Scotland, to the Med, across the pond to the Caribbean, and finally back to back to the Great Lakes. The final destination though is up for debate. it is still two years away...

[tomriley]

Wow what a storm! It's been an absolute pleasure following both of your adventures! Looking forward to what comes next!

[robbo]

I really liked that vlog where you described the before and after of your voice....i guessed you were born with it but was impressed how you polished it like a easy listening ❤love the story telling

[leesydneyharry]

When should we expect to see Kristina working on Getaway Australia's favourite travel show “with wonderful holiday ideas for all tastes and budgets as well as those once in a lifetime, dream destinations. Escape today with Getaway Kristina” ???😂 Seriously I can see you working on the show!

[KristinasTravels]

Good Luck friends! Love always, Kristina and captain John xx

[joerobinson]

I’m a Brissy boy! Glad you guys made it back with some awesome stories. Don’t stay too long tho! Theres a much greater life out there on the water. My wife and I hope to buy our own sail boat one day and sail with our two boys. Will be great to follow along with your future journeys!

[HeyMichaelLeo]

Wow...how does one happily go back to city life and the grind?
Love you both and good luck with that.
"Cheers"

Another totally groovy episode. Love your personal shots of Brisbane. Beautiful, alive and exciting. So glad to hear that you will be able to keep on sailing with John's groovy job offer. Stay safe and stay groovy.

[LeadingtheEscapade]

got goosebumps watching you so happy when John got the roster!! how exciting! So many epic adventures to come! We can't wait to see, and hopefully see you in the med xxxx

[rayb]

I hope we do see you guys back on the water in a new boat soon.

[PhilsProjects]

Ahh sweating your behind off, day 5 of a power outage sub 0 c temps 1M without power after a nasty ice storm. I envy you so much. Love your videos, always looking forwards to a new episode

[glenhopkins]

Hi guys & its the end for Tucano as far as you guys are concerned hey. A tad sad I must say as I have been watching all episodes & that boat has certainly taught you guys heaps but new adventures await & John goes back to his dream job as such & you Kristina do what??? I am sure that you have something planned whilst John is working as his shifts will surely not be every day of the month so that still leaves plenty of time together. My you guys have been amazing in what you have accomplished, congrats on that & now new experiences await over in the Med so look forward to what happens next & I see even a road trip in the works so that will be different & I am not sure that I will recognize John with short hair but both of you have succh a wonderful tan. Kristina keep up the good video's as they are just so entertaining & looks like new camera gear will help. Enjoy getting reaquainted with Brisbane again & being able to go out for cofee or dinner when you want & stay in a/c accomadation, all the goodies you have missed I am sure. Look forward to whats next with your adventures & stay safe. Cheers & love.
