A few years back a couple fell off a cliff while not paying attention trying to get a selfie. They left 2 children standing at the top of the cliff. Selfies are cool...not falling off a cliff or ladder the height of a cliff is better lol.
Have fun and be safe.
Always the best tunes to accompany your videos - great variety
Omg what an amazing place in the middle if nowhere. And well set up! Wow. And you Miss sailor are looking sooo amazing as always:)
Nice vid
I absolutely love these sailing vlogs. They’re so British, most of the time talking about the weather and if it’s raining or not it’s just like listening to anyone in England and their normal chat at any moment 🌬🌦 I love it👌
These are the people who I don’t feel bad for when they get lost at sea.
G'day Xanthe and Jackson,the island seems quite quaint,from the proper limestone caves,to the fresh water ponds.The weather definitely leaves a lot to be desired though,but not restricting you completely.Can't sell you boat yet,it needs to find it's namesake in Sydney first don't you think?
All the best as you keep adventuring,looks like you got Suzie fixed Jackson 👍
Hi Jackson and Xanthe - I watched you guys sail in to Pittwater on Saturday - was up Barrenjoey Lighthouse standing near your friends and family
Was great to see 'Finding Avalon' in the flesh - and you both looked pretty exited to have finally 'Found Avalon'
Welcome Home - I really do hope that there will be more adventures for you both to experience (and for us to watch via your CZcams channel, of course)
All the very best with your future endeavours and adventures
Ahhh Brendon that's awesome you saw us! Thanks so much for coming along and sending out the vibes; and of course for all your support on CZcams. Look out for us on the Pittwater. We will be travelling around there for a couple of months :)
Wow,your editing has gone to a new level guys. Great music as well...cheers...
Woo thank you
Best episode yet, thanks
Thanks matey; glad you enjoyed
I see the Wynns were there as well. I. Wish i could travel. Haha. If i was 30 years younger. Merry Christmas to you both
Have a great Christmas & happy new year 🎁🎄🍺🥂⛵🎁🎄🍺🥂⛵
Peter Groves and you, friend! Eat, drink and be merry 🎄✨
Bread-sticks & sausage! Funny!
Very cool place so nice to see that you don't let a little weather stop you from fun. Oh ya stay safe when your about climb up or down very high and dodgy ladders young lady.
As the Brits say; "there's no such thing as bad weather; just the wrong clothes" 😊
That was fun😍
I'm niuean and grew up in australia hope to visit the motherland one day safe travels back 🙏
Lovely
Nice job showing off the beautiful girl, really nice looking bird. The dislikes have to be jealous people. Ignore them. Much success fair winds
You are back in Australia....congratulations for your great trip. I saw it on vesselfinder. I hope any time I can follow your way with my Hallberg rassy monsun 31. I really enjoyed your well produced Videos. Best regards from munich/ germany, Markus
You got us! Yes we are back home and just loving sailing around our old stomping grounds where the coffee, people and wildlife are unparalleled. Looking forward to doing a bit of racing on Finding Avalon and sailing around Sydney harbour for NYE.
i guess the butterflies pollinate. The Wynn's just went to an island, and the little boy pollinated the Zucchini plant. (no bees). take care
Cheers!
You're welcome 😁
Very Beautiful video 👍
Thanks buddy
This trip is going to live on in your beings in ways few get to experience. Your momentum will serve you in making the most of your highest possibilities. INFINITE LOVING BLESSINGS
Much love to you Mister
Me and Jackson are wearing the same Emericas!!
Matchy matchy!
Hopefully, you were able to catch up with the Wynns as they were in Niue as well.
They were waaaaay ahead of us unfortunately. We saw breadcrumbs left behind by them by way of business cards stuck on the wall in the yacht club.
Xanthe please don't do that again. I agree with Jackson...not a smart move. I'm glad everything turned out okay. That ladder to the sea was shady at best.😱😨😓😁
You can literally celebrate New Years twice by being in NZ and then by travelling here! lol
Me got stuck in a jacket forever and it was not fun. I guess you can ask a fireman to get you out, but I am to shy. hehehe. Good Story.
Another great video guys 👍 Out of interest which one of you does the editing?
Xanthe does all the editing and most of the filming so that Jackson can focus on captaining. Although Jackson has made one or two episodes. Maybe you can guess which ones.
WOW! What a cool place! I wanna go there! - or I did, up until the water snake showed up.... :D
Oh my goodness there were so many of the buggers in the ocean when we were swimming. That's the only one we caught on film.Do you follow us on Insta? One climbed onto the SUP board when Jackson was paddling 😱 It's on our Fiji stories. Have a look if you feel like wincing with horror.
Are these the ones that are extremely venomous but has too small of a mouth to cause any harm?
@@SailMermaid The seventh most venemous snake in the world. Up until very recently they have never harmed a human, but there was an incident in Australia this year where a little boy got bit on the hand. He survived as they got him to hospital swiftly :)
Sailing On Finding Avalon Thank you! I think I’ll stay put in the Med ;) Looking forward to hear more about your plans now that you’ve returned to Avalon :)
Greetings from North Pole ALASKA, and MERRY CHRISTMAS👍😂👁️👁️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️and I wish I was someplace warm. LoL
Merry Christmas friend! Will be feeling a damn sight more 'christmassy' where you are 🎄
@@FindingAvalon yes, it's a winter wonderland up here. I may try to drive around and make some vids, if it stays warm for awhile.👍😂👁️👁️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️☃️
💖🦋🌲⛵️ I hope the both of you have a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic new year fair winds 🇦🇺💖🦋🌈⛵️⛵️⛵️🍷🍷🍷

Sounds like a fuel issue like it shakes up your fuel supply and clogs up your fuel line or filter
Hey team, I think Gone with The Wynns is in Niue also. #thumbsup #networkingsailingchannels
Those guys are many many weeks ahead of us sadly. Would have been all time if we bumped into them there.
Oh dude..I'm just at min.mark 7:10 ( Unreliable outboard) Thats a real problem...People so appreciate a rock solid outboards...got to have it. You explained your situation ..I know your real apprehension in your discribed current problem. Check your fuel tank air intake cap... Eventually get a 2- stroke Tohatsu or Nissan 2 stroke. They are Tohatsu's inside... My choice a 9.8 Tohatsu 2 stroke ( 59 lbs) 12 years no problems. BULLET PROOF I paid 650$ U.S. used, with under 50 hrs. G.T. S.V. Silver Fantasy
"xanthe", LMFAO,
she must be related to Goofy
New to your channel. Looks interesting! Why are all of my favorite sailing channels done by Aussies?
Except Slv now. But the rest are great.good stuff.
Welcome!
"Fakalofa" guys enjoy the island
The next up and coming SV Vagabond
I hope not.they lost it some time ago.sold there souls for the almighty $$ & now joined the political arena.There early years was great.hope these guys learn a lesson from it.keep doing what your doing👍.
Hey Xanthe,it is very obvious you are a stong,brave,and very independent women,and no guy
Should be telling u what to do,with that sed,look into your camera, smile,hold up your hand in the (liked) position,take pictures, Now that is a perfect thumbnail, and hanging off a cliff by a thread, is more in the giving of a heart attack. ALL IN GOOD FUN GUYS it's just amazing what you guys do every day! Thanks for sharing
Why did you wait till the last moment? Bad weather coming, get out 24 hours in advance or sooner
🖒🖒🙌🙌
Xanthe I've been eyeing your long sleeve stripped swimsuit for aaaaages, could you tell me where you got it please? Love you guys
Oh it's just a good old faithful Billabong! I do love it as it means I can keep sunscreen to a minimum 😊
Who is that musician at 14:45 ?? Does he have a CZcams Channel??? He's a 'Hellova Hellova' good musician :)
Music credits always At the bottom in the description box if you're ever curious about any tunes on here. The one you're asking about is a cover of Xanthe's favourite Bruce Springsteen song by Anthony Lazaro... And yes! he does have CZcams czcams.com/channels/UbiUysTEyPJR_3ukl3IcBA.html
This local music artist and home grown talent is Glen Jackson. Yes he has a channel on YT. 💯 agree he’s good. An amazing Composer and Singer.
🇳🇺
Such great times but I don't think your lady will ever grow up that was very scary what she did all my God please be careful both of you LOL👾🐒🐝
More like doing it for the Darwin award than for the thumbnail Xanthe...cool vlog again
Yeah but Jackson's reaction was precious.
12:10 Rope makes a stretching sound....... Shudder...cringe...
Kristin Burton i saw Jacksons face and heart stop! Crazy to trust that rope.
One hand for you, one hand for the boat....the same for ladders. We'd rather see you in many more videos than one cool thumbnail. We're giving you grief because we care about you. : )
Do you ever want to sell the boat and go home? :)
We don't EVER want to sell Finding Avalon... But we would like to go home. Sydney is so underrated as a sailing destination.
Good to hear that. Japan is also a spot the CZcams Sailing Channels do not much cover
@@MrRourk Japan is ultimate bucket list sailing! We've travelled there by land a few times. The snow and surf are excellent there.
@@MrRourk the country is great, but the sailing conditions around it are not that inviting (typhoon season, either not enough wind or too much wind, etc...)
I want cake
Please please don’t do the lean back on the rope trick any more! I am old. Old people in general just want the young people to have a nice time and see them having fun. As a pharmacist I have helped many get over a bump in the road. It’s best to go around problems, just avoid them. I understand that things like riding a motor bike can be dangerous but fun. Pick your excitements with a grain of salt. Much love!
Riding motorcycles around Washington State has gotten significantly more dangerous than it was 20 years ago primarily for 4 reasons. More automobiles, poorer drivers, deteriorating roads, and a state government that is unwilling or unable to do anything about it.
Hi Xanthe! I really have the tell you how much I appreciate your haircare advice, it has saved my hair it is now beginning to feel restored & healthy againI. I swear I’ve tried everything! This ACV rinse is PURE MAGIC! just absolutely love you guys!💜 do you think you’ll ever sail to the US? I’m in California (Santa Cruz) & if you guys ever make it out this way you’re more than welcome to stay at my place & use my car, shower, laundry, internet & whatever else you’d like or need.
❤️🌏😊🌎🌈🌍🙏
Ahhh you are so welcome, Rachel. Glad it worked. Yeah that ACV thing is unreal. One other thing I didnt say was don't brush your hair too much. I only ever do it before showering or if I'm going to my grandma's house :)
There is just SO much we want to see, West Coast US is one of them for sure. No way of knowing where we will end up just yet, but you'll see! Lots of love.
Dont like people who tell others to “ shut up “!
I've wasted my life.
Unwaste it and get a life, it's never too late. :)
Better go aWAY from Australia. The fires destroy the country complete!!!!
😢
what is this saliing with la vagabond wanna be??? c'mon man !
nobody likes to hear "Shut UP!" It's a rude and base form of expression. One could just as easily say "Please don't say things that hurt or diminish me."
shut the fuck up !
@@soulfly4076 You are diminishing the fuck out of me and it fuckin hurts !!
