    I am so upset anyone would say anything about Fran's voice. She is such a sweetheart and I love watching you two. Listening to both of you is so amazing. I really enjoy hearing her talk about the castaway kitchen and seeing her creative meals. There will always be negative trolls but know your true fans love everything about both of you and you don't need to change anything. Please keep your commentary in Fran!

    @Warp9pnt9 Před 3 dny +6

    I had no idea Fran used to feel that way about her voice. Her voice is lovely. The accents of both Strick and Fran are very hard for me to understand as an American. But I replay difficult spots until I get it. Usually I understand most of it on first pass but every few minutes there's just sounds and words I don't understand. But after about a year watching now, I am getting a lot better. The most important thing by far to be mindful of is that your energy and attitude need no translation. Love hearing both your voices and seeing the adventures.

    is incredibly gripping and adventurous! The way you document the challenges and resilience required after your boat was smashed, leading to being castaway on a remote island, is both captivating and inspiring. It's clear that you approach unexpected situations with courage and resourcefulness, showcasing a deep respect for nature and the sea. Your storytelling and perseverance amidst adversity are truly commendable. Keep up the fantastic work, and continue sharing your remarkable experiences that remind us of the unpredictable yet beautiful aspects of life on the water.

    Don't be self conscious Fran, your accent is totally lovable.
    I've done plenty of fiberglass repairs on boats but when fiberglass breaks under that level of fatigue from being toed. It might be time to say goodby to the Salty Dingo & move into something safer. Although a gunnel crack like that is separated from the hull, the great risk is if you struck bad weather, the hull can buckle with out the rigidity of the gunnel & the side of the hull could crack in half. If i were going to repair a boat like this, i would triple reinforce the whole gunnels on both sides, foam fill & completely seal the foam in fiberglass to increase top strength & protect the hull better in the long term.
