Whats the point of just sailing and not visiting the places. You have travelled half of australia without even keeping a step on land.

[joshthompson]

Not sure how long I've been watching but it's been since the monohull days - long enough to have watched your family grow up. You guys are awesome! I know the videos take a lot of work and I appreciate every one of them. You're fueling my dream to sail one day. And I'm thankful you share your passion with so many of us; gives us all something work toward and look forward to. Keep it up. We love you all!

When we lived in Dominica and I was in boarding school in the states, I often didn't see my family for a whole year. Only for Christmas break. It was hard. I loved them and missed them so much. Thank goodness for my darling grandmother. She was my stay and salvation.

[S.L-Sully]

Zatara and my morning coffee has become my Thursday am ritual!! Momma dont get going till its over!! Thank you Z-Fam!!

[Tinfoilhat]

I hAve just finished binge watching your channel for about 70 episodes.I have a broken ankle on my left leg. I must say your channel gives me hope for brighter days ahead that soothe away the blues.

You are the only sailing family that is still on the water that I follow. Love your travel content. You got me through the pandemic and all my trip cancellations. Thank you from a fellow Montanan, on my first trip since 10/19, visiting Kalispell again.

I just want to say that I have been watching before COVID and was in the middle of buying my own sail boat when bad news hit my family and my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. She had tumors in her lung, her spine and her brain. She was given 5-6 months to live. Well it’s been a year and my mother is alive and doing so amazing and I am back to looking for another sailboat. Thank you so much for the wonderful content and the amazing family fun you show me. I one day will see you, on the water!

[davidmacdonald]

The monologue and what Keith wants to teach his kids, I totally respect!

[Dibs]

You guys always do a great job editing and sound mixing, but today’s was exceptionally good.

[SaraSparkles]

I just did a legit LOL at the do i hold it or let it go and i said to my hubby they’re us. He talks while looking away too. He just shook his head. Such a relatable marriage moment.

[Iwalkalonebegood]

I see shots of your kids daydreaming looking over the waves and the next adventure to come. I was that same type of kid but on a big farm in Oklahoma. You guys are truly blessed to be able to follow your dreams. Make the most of everyday, I have watched many episodes and as a kid I had a short experience in the ocean but off the beach skin diving and fishing when my dad got transferred to Southern Los Angeles for 4 years from 78 to 82. The ocean is just so vast you look out on it and it's like all the different dreams you could have just waiting for you to set a course and plot that next dreams adventure! God Bless!

[BaronVonNapalm]

I look forward to Thursdays for the Zatara Chronicles. Thanks for making my mundane a little more lively. Fair winds and Following Seas

[alyssamckean]

I hear you! I haven't seen my parents in almost a year and a half and we are all in the same country. Just prohibited from crossing provincial boarders. So frustrating!

[soninlaw]

Hey guys. Great vid. Keith has a great voice for narration. I really enjoyed the intro. Please encourage him to do more of that.

[gbsailing]

So glad you guys are doing it easy. I could so quickly go bad down that way. So I'm glad you are all safe and having a great sail!/motor! Fair winds and following seas for the next leg! Take advantage of the cool CLEAN water around you...some of the freshest in the world down there. Straight off the Antarctic. Great snorkeling and diving around some of the islands. Enjoy!

[muravi]

Thank you Renee ! love your motherly Love and Instinct !!

[TheCinamanic]

10:20 nicely framed shot.. look at the blue sea n sky on right and the absolute best contrast gray yellow sea n sky on the left.. so soothing

[juliesharon]

Looks like a nice cruise across the Bight. You picked the right bad decision Keith - beating in the Southern Ocean can be nasty (Leon and Jul, saying hi and thanks for the awesome video) 👌😘

[lmf]

Have been waiting (ok a little impatiently) for this instalment and so relieved that you had a “best worst” crossing! 😂 My mothers heart ached when you mentioned Anna not being able to visit but it will happen! Thanks for sharing and if there’s any chance of some longer instalments 🙏🏻 that would be great....??? Enjoy & stay safe x

[JerryWhatshisface]

Love the lessons you are teaching the kids. Sad Anna cannot join you at this time. Thanks for sharing this weeks video. Have fun exploring and stay safe Z-Crew.
