Seek Adventure!
This channel is all about living those words. Our goal is to encourage the healthy outdoor lifestyle that anybody can enjoy! đ
Who am I? Nobody really, but I do love being in the great outdoors whenever I can get away from the grind. Ever since I bought my first camera I have enjoyed creating short videos, more recently I have been filming my 4wding and outdoor adentures and sharing them with the world.
My Mazda Bt50 (Cyan) gets me around WA and sometimes friends tag along for the journey too.
I hope you guys enjoy the channel and have a laugh or two đ.
Cheers guys, Michael

Water Tank Vs Jerry Cans | Off-road 4x4 Camping
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 132KPĆed 4 lety
Should you install a water tank on your overland 4wd or just stick with a water jerry can? In this video we look at the pros and cons of mounted water tanks and jerry cans for when you are vehicle camping in remote areas. You can only survive for days without water, so making sure your water is safe is pretty important!
DIY Quick Release Camp Table | 4x4 Touring
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 38KPĆed 4 lety
A few viewers were interested in how the detachable camp table for my camp kitchen was put together. When you are living out of/ touring in your 4wd having a quick camp setup make life alot easier. This camp table can be put up in under a minute and since it's attached to the canopy, it's nice and solid as well! The quick release hinges can be bought on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Sugatsune-HG-OTA10...
Spontaneous Solo Boat Camping At Night
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 44KPĆed 4 lety
I was looking for somewhere to camp the night, I though what the heck, let's go camping on an island! So after loading up the boat I hit the water and headed out to an island just off the coast. The highlight was waking up in my swag to one of the best sunrises!
The Best Place To Mount Your Fire Extinguisher | 4x4 Touring
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 44KPĆed 4 lety
If you like to take your 4wd camping into remote areas or even if you don't, having a fire extinguisher mounted in arms reach in your 4x4 could make a huge difference if the unthinkable does ever happen out in the outback, a fire. After a few people mentioned that my fire extinguisher in my canopy camp kitchen is hard to access, so in this video we fix that problem with a awesome little product...
Tent poles are a thing of the past | Darche Airvolution Swag Long Term Review
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 132KPĆed 4 lety
After using the pole-less Darch Airvolution swag for over 2 years, I have to say air poles are awesome. Camping is better when set up times are quick. This swag takes no time at all to setup, in fact I would say it's very comparable to a roof top tent. In this long term review video I tell you the good, the bad, and the great things about the Darche Airvolution swag. Grab your own Seek Adventur...
Crawl Control, just drive out | 4x4 Sand Self Recovery Technique
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 577KPĆed 4 lety
Some 4wd Toyota's feature their 'Crawl Control' system to help in tricky off-road situations. But can you use the same 4x4 technique to get the bogged vehicle unstuck out of soft sand? In this video I try something a little different, can you use the illusive 'Crawl Control' recovery techique and simply drive out of the bog?

Beach 4x4 Self Recovery Technique | Just Wet the Sand...
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 122KPĆed 4 lety
There are plenty of techniques you can use to self recover you 4wd, and when you get bogged on the beach or sand dunes, a trusty shovel will get you un stuck most of the time.

Fyrlyt Driving Lights Review | Better Than LED's
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 81KPĆed 4 lety
Since LED light bars became popular on the 4wd scene, may people don't even consider Halogen Driving Lights. I was very curious about Fyrlyt spotlights for a while until I finally decided to give them a go! You can check them out here: www.fyrlyt.com Grab your own Seek Adventure apparel at our online store: seekadventure.com.au/store
Learning To Tow Off-Road | Francois Peron National Park
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 55KPĆed 4 lety
Francois Peron National Park is an awesome 4wd destination! Located just north of Denham in Shark Bay, the water is full of sea life to observe and the red cliffs make every white beach spectacular. This is the first time I have ever towed a trailer off road on soft 4x4 sand tracks, which also made the adventure a little more interesting!

Basic DIY 12V Wiring | Fuses, Wire Sizing
zhlĂ©dnutĂ 220KPĆed 4 lety
Doing your own 12V wiring can be rewarding, if you do it right! I show how I choose the gauge of wire, fuse size, how to run cables and do everything to make a basic 12 Volt circuit. For this video I install a marine radio, echosounder, bilge pump and accessory power in the boat. A fairly simple project to get your head around how to do your own basic 12V wiring.

Hi! I starting to notice oil on the same hose, is of course tip in some place, I already bought the replacement but is normal to have oil in there? Cheers from Chile!
Top stuff!
Fantastic guide
next time buy Dyneema sinthetic rope and on thickness like this one here you will have 15+tone pull strength
Damn I just found this channel in 2024 and I guess it's over before it began for me. :(

Where are YA at???

400 isn't cheap for camping. I'd be impressed if you did it with 100 or less
I am interested in how a broken fastening of a snatch block would fare with a dampener since a snatch block is by far the most dangerous thingy in the chain? I know that the snatch block and where it is fastened should be stronger than the weak point, but it would still be interesting to see how a dampener can stop such a heavy thing. My thinking is if I were to help a regular driver out of a ditch and I can't get enough traction to pull them out with a single line and have to use a snatch block to almost double the pulling power. In such an emergency case, I might not be able to attach the block as strong as I would like in the ditched vehicle. I'm interested in real physics and do comment on how one "NEVER SHOULD DO THAT!!!!" if anyone wants to, but IMO, in real life one sometimes has to take some unwanted risk to save/help someone.
You would think wearing the hat to protect your head would be obvious. But then again in todays culture we see men wearing a baseball cap backwards with their sunglasses on the hat brim also backwards and their hand over their forehead squinting to see because of the sun.
Please come back to youtube âŠ. we all miss you.

Reflection from the yellow plastic on only one panel ?
The multiple slowmo replays give the impression of repeated testing of each variable. In reality, only one test at each position was conducted... I know your not mafe of money to be buying pallet loads of winch rope, (plus where do you draw the line, do you need a control to rule out the rope itself as a variable...) but without a control and/or consecutive tests at each position to rule out other factors being at play, the results are next to useless im afraid. I'll explain, It all depends where the rope fails as to the impact the dampener may have on the length of cable THE DAMPENER IS ATTACHED TO. A better approach would have been to test each dampener location a minimum of 3 times and compare the point of failure for each test. This way, lets hypothetically assume for a moment that the point of failure was identical each time, you would be able to better determine that the effect the damper had on the rope was consistent and therefore a direct result of dampener placement location. If the point of failure was inconsistent a look at the dampener location vs the point of failure location would at least give a better indication on placement vs effect for various failure locations, especially when each set of results can be looked at with the other sets of results to cross reference and identify any consistencies or inconsistencies Good work tho, no bullshit, no nonsense, straight to the point đ
If you construct the shackle to spec. there is no reason it will be less safe than a "Factory Made" shackle. It is no more "irresponsible" than making your own aircraft which is allowed in the States at least. if you follow the process and specifications. if you have ever gone to "the factory" and seen the process you can easily duplicate this at home with the proper materials. Here in the States we can make our own cars, firearms, and many other items as DYIers. What makes something good it knowledge of the process and materials. It is common to perform "field repairs to synthetic winch lines and making a shackle is no different if you have the knowledge and understanding of the required materials and process. That is my only disagreement. Otherwise a very good video.
Very clever! Thank you. Curious... how is it vented?
Nevermind. I see the vent cap.
Just came across this channel and I really enjoy watching the vids. I was saddened to see the last video upload was 3 years ago.
That recovery point looks like it would be a fun one to try and get to if you were stuck in deep mud
If thatâs a funny hat, then I must be a damn comedian.
Your video was very helpful THANKS for sharing đ đ
Not walking over a km to get reception to learn how to unbog myself đ©
What do you think of using lag bolts?
Hi, I just want to ask if I can use this booster to Philippines?
Great video! You look like you are wearing someone elseâs face
Love your set up!! What a beautiful rig
No steel cable?
Whatâs happening with his channel?
great teaching about the safety, people can see a rope snap on Matts off road recovery on the wrecker games. when the go its like a whip and it broke part of the truck , thank you for this ,stay safe and well
American here, I wear an Akubra Angler. I need to get a Cattleman too.
I was visiting my new land property in central Florida and there was sand/gravel road. Very undeveloped area not to mention I was bobtailing in my tractor. Found this video and hoping This knowledge will help. Def will think twice coming out here in my bobtail till the roads are finished. đą wish me luck yâall cause I cannot afford a wrecker atm
Thanks. Pray to Kesus for guidance
I wish most of you generation had the skills you possess,well done
Everyone who off-roads should watch this great video! Snow, sand, or mud, this is exactly how itâs done.
Iâve always liked the Hat wearing culture in countries where the sun is harsh or the rain and wind are strong. Hats keep oneâs head warm apart from looking elegant and in some way, elevate head wear into the next level of elegance. Honestly, even in India where I live, the hat wearing culture has kind of died down and the whole new thing is dressing down or dressing sloppy. But, then, even if I look out of place, I like wearing my Hats and I donât subscribe to this âdressing downâ thing.
I just bought an Aussie Chiller to wear here in Barcelona Spain, since summers are getting hotter and hotter (40 degrees celsius) and I easily get sunburn. No one wears hats here, but thatâs ok, one has to be careful. And they look really nice.
Good video thanks
Gee, I hadn't realised you made another - I enjoyed every moment - as always! so wonderful in so many ways! Can I say - it think its now time for another, How about just doing one per year? You currently have 121,000+ subscribers hoping for another! All the best to you and yours!
I was delighted to see your video pop up first when I searched solar panel installation! An wow - what a brilliant innovation!! Love your smart ideas! I've missed your videos - but admire you for making the right decision for you! I hope you are well and happy and hope you are still out there Seeking Adventure!
Cool idea !!!
