Gus Erland; They have stated in the past that they are not posting KZread videos for sustainable income, but that any proceeds they receive would go to their children's education. In other words; they don't need the money. It's a hobby that Renee works hard at. They don't owe their viewer anything and could pull the plug anytime. Enjoy.

Message to Renee, this video wasn’t boring, it show cased a part and perspective of Australia that many people don’t see. Thank you for the major effort, and you don’t apologise for giving. Your videos are very well crafted. My perspective, you balance out the individual’s and their journeys, very well. It’s good to watch Keith, he is very considered. Finn is a very good musician, he is very intuitive, the Guitar and Finn become one, it’s the “Fintar” It’s a real gift. Thanks for sharing this. Beautiful part of the World, beautiful people, thanks for sharing. Please stay vigilant and safe. Bons Ventos The Portuguese Wallaby Down Under.
Renee, you say this was a boring episode, but it really was lovely! You organized a passage into a cohesive story with family touches and a sense of calm passage. The animated thirds with passage information tied it all together. This is the _art_ of storytelling. Well done!

Look, Renee, I along with about 80k others watch a guy in Canada feed raccoons on his deck every night. We're good. We just like to see you. Continue on with safe, easy boat life. We have enough drama in DC.

Not a boring episode in the least. Passage episodes are some of my favorite because they’re the most genuine.
Finn is smooth at that guitar. Keep at it my man!
Oh my gosh boring??? Not even♡ I watch to enjoy the ocean and all it's glory plus I sailed with my family when I was younger...that's why I watch. This was wonderful ♡♡♡♡
I/we don't think the video is boring. Just another few days in the life of a very cool family. Thanks, and keep them coming.
No. Not boring. Thanks again.
Calm, quiet, soft breezes and dolphins. Who could ask for a better week. Sound good to me.
I don’t know if this would be possible but it would be awesome if you had a big pole with a GoPro on it so you could capture the dolphins from under the water. I bet that would be a really cool shot.
Life is sometimes boring,glad your passage is proceeding without drama.Just a real family on life’s journey.
Keith's looking like a shipwrecked pirate in that checkered ripped up shirt! Love it! Your videos are never boring. The dolphins were great, Finn's guitar playing, the beautiful views of the water and islands, everything is beautiful!

Passage videos are my favorite videos because I get to watch something that I’ll likely never do. I don’t find them boring at all. I love them.
It wasn't boring. Watching you guys interact with the dolphins is fantastic. Glad the trip did not become dangerous for you guys. It is really a joy to watch your whole family and very entertaining. God bless you on the waters.
I didn't find your video boring. It's just all part of the adventure no matter what you do. So don't apologize, it's still totally fine.
Far from boring. Very nice stuff. Finn is really getting the Fret Board work going well. You appear to have timed this passage perfectly considering the usual weather down there. You are making memories that'll last a lifetime.
Not boring beautiful views and enjoyable music and dolphin 🐬 I could only wish to spend a weekend like that You all are blessed to live life so freely 💟
Life at sea and the daily routines are immensely interesting to me. The dolphin footage was so wonderful. One of my favorite Zatara episodes ever! Thank you....
Not boring at all! Love the vids. My 10 year old daughter Isabel and I have a standing Thursday morning Zatara date every week before we start homeschool. Thanks y’all!
I didn't think this episode was boring. I enjoyed it. Renee has such a wonderful way of telling a story.
Boring is good when you’re on passage across what can be a very treacherous and dangerous part of the world. I’m glad the weather was good for you. Besides, it’s enjoyable watching the authenticity of your family’s interactions along with Finn’s increasing skill on the guitar.
I found this episode just giving us a glimpse of your day when y'all are on passage. So don't apologize .At least it was safe. Hello from Houston,Texas a bright sunny and a bit cool today ! Stay Safe Y'all !
This episode was far from boring, I found it very interesting and sort of soothing. Thanks.

Renee, you are a great video narrator! Love your stories, they’re not boring at all. Admire the way you and Keith raise your kids. My twin boys are 8 and don’t speak English well enough yet, but even they like watching your videos. Much love from us in Moscow, Russia!
It was not boring - just very relaxed. Thank you
Your boys are becoming good guitarists. Beautiful boat, nice family.
As ever and always, Renee - the rock anchor of Zatara family !
At sea, there are no 'good+exciting', there is only 'bad+exciting'. Boring cruises are the best! Glad to hear it went well.
The boat is moving and mostly a sail up. I like that and not boring here.
I thought I was a cool Home-school Mom, but you get the blue ribbon!! I've 'graduated', and am so thankful I hung in and finished, and you'll be glad you kept at it, too!
Not boring at all guy's, really enjoyed watching you sailing in my part of the world. Finn is becoming a real talent on the guitar!
Not boring at all - just good to see you are safe out there on the water..
It wasn't boring!! Not for us anyway, but for you it's a five day sail and for you I'd much rather boring and safe than to see you in any danger. A well timed and navigated passage by Captain Keith and I'm not sure I've seen such a large pod of dolphins outside of a nature program, incredible. If the dolphins were uplifting for me to see I can't imagine how it feels to see them after a four day passage :)
Honestly I prefer more videos like this. This is what I need to show my wife in order to convince her to think about sailing. Thanks
It is a good thing to see all hands on deck doing their part for Zatara. She is a good boat and thanks each of you very much, I know I do.!
Renee It wasnt boring, and you dont have to apologize. This is a normal day to day, and is great, thats life. Glad to know the passage went normal, well and safe, thats the most important thing of all. Grettings.
There's no need to apologize for this video. It's amazing to see everything. Great video
Good job putting the Deckhands to work 👏👏
Kid's really getting good with that guitar. Lots of feeling and soul. Impressive
Finn is getting quite creative. Glad your family had a nice peaceful sail
Finn plays the guitar 🎸 absolutely beautiful, super creative 👌
It's never boring with you guys... we love Finn playing the guitar, but when he is going to start singing as well?
Finn is getting better with that guitar. Not a boring segment. Enjoying the photography and finding the mood aboard usually fairly chipper. A lot of reading makes you smart. Stay safe . Paul, St Petersburg, Florida
Not boring at all to me, thanks so much for sharing this on video.
Amazing, Finn! Love your playing!
Your videos are never ever boring! This particular video got me a tad emotional...the dolphins, your choice of music...NICE! We're getting to see this spectacular gift of a planet thru your experiences! It seams though... a pirate snuck on board ,he was wearing a torn table cloth & stumbled around alot trying to sing! Thank You 😆❤
Not boring at all. I really enjoyed this episode. Seeing how everyone handles "boring" is just as interesting as seeing how they handle other things.
Hahaha that bagel looked like it was in quarantine a little to long, Hope we get to see some fishing action along with some diving and fun stuff on the water. God bless you all and stay safe out there.
Thank you so much for the great video Renee, I can only imagine how much work it is to edit and then upload each video. Great job, really enjoy the depiction of life at sea. I am glad the trip was boring, having worked and am still working at sea, it is such a good feeling to have an uneventful crossing. This is really a result of great planning and good seamanship. This is all thanks to Keith and your amazing family. Thank you so much for letting me live my dream life through yours. Stay safe everyone, you are all very special!!!
This was a pretty nice and chilled episode not boring at all; We're enjoying the adventure with you. I mean who didn't like Keith's rendition of Ain't no sunshine
Not boring at all. Love the uneventful. Safe sailing
Never boring, nice to see real life for you guys, felt like being there :)
Great Episode. Edited real well telling a story. Remember, boring is good on passage, lol.
Finn has come a long way with his guitar playing! Sounds great! Great Vidio as well thanks
This was in no way shape or form a boring video. You have to keep in mind that the lives of those of us that are watching are in a cube or working day to day. Maybe they're lucky like me, I get to go sailing every other weekend. But videos like this help us to get through it. Don't stop. Also your next theme song should be written and played by your boys. They are amazing. Finn especially. It'll save you those pesky licensing fees.

I think the Float Away song is free? I love it when they play the whole chorus, like today. Such a perfect song. But Finn is definitely becoming a master guitar player!
I can so relate to getting burned out on homeschooling. 22 years here! 🤪 Loved seeing all the dolphins! See ya next week!
I'm so glad you guys had a great passage and got to Adelaide safely. It is a good thing that you had good weather and were able to enjoy the sail. I hope that the next leg is just as Safe (boring 🤣) and that you get to enjoy that as well. Looking forward to the WA adventures coming up. Next provisioning in Adelaide! Stay safe and Fair Winds to you and your family.
Even in the boring times you guys do a great job with the videos. You allow many of us that will never be able to sail around the world to be a part your adventures. Thank you
My favorite sailing family ❤️ Love from India 🇮🇳
Renee is such a good mother and partner. Yes the dolphins are following you, be ware the dolphins....
a big fan here in the phillippines..... stay safe and stay afloat...!!!! GODBLESS Z-CREW....
It was stunning guys, I’ve stood at the 11 apostles on the Great Ocean Road and said god that’s a powerful ocean. Fin absolutely rocking the waves, great tunes🎸🎼
I recommend stopping at Kangaroo Island. Have a little fun checking out Australia along the way.
Nothing boring about this video Renee, there are so many joyful and special moments... the hole in Keiths shirt, dolphins, Finns guitar creating a soundtrack for your voyage, Kate's smile, Jack always positive and you keeping it all together. After a sh*t week you made me smile a lot, thank you 💚
Finn, congratulations !!! --- there are few good melodists!)
Not boring, you realize we are all living vicariously through you and this is so relaxing to watch and be a part of the family.
Boring? - At the end I was thinking what a great little episode this one was. That family shot - looking at the dolphins - were everyone was happy and smiling - seemed to be the essence of what your adventures are about. Finn used to be a dorky little kid - now he's like the star of your videos. I enjoy watching him mature - week to week.
You were lucky with the weather this time. That stretch around the bottom of Aussie land. Has taken many lives and ships to the bottom.
Renee, your such an amazing human. I feel like your such a great host that you would feel apologetic about what you say was a boring video. We thank you so much, we know these aren’t easy to put together but you do such a great job with them they are always interesting, educational and fun. This is another great video, thank you we really enjoy what you do!!

Like many are saying here in the comments, we are all totally immersed in sharing your adventure whether it's issues and drama or calm and serenity. It's all superbly recorded and presented!
Please don’t apologize. It’s not boring to me. Most of us live mundane monotonous lives. Watching your sailing videos are so relaxing and helps me fantasize about leaving it all and go on an adventure like you. Cheers to your safe passage!
It wasn’t boring! It’s nice to see your family working and playing together!❤️
Not boring at all Rene. Gives us land people a good idea of what’s really involved in a long passage and how you all keep busy. 👍👍👍
Keith singing a old 100 song "This little light of mine... I'm gonna let it shine!" So I know you where raised in the church! Sing it Keith 🙏!
Never a need to apologize Renee! You, Keith and The Kids are the best thing on The Internet, Pandemic or not...You are a great Storyteller, Editor and Operator and it's been an absolute joy to follow your journeys and watch your beautiful Family grow through the entire experience. Frankly, I could easily enjoy Daily Accounts from The Zatara, and I'm certain many would agree.
I don't think it was boring. It was a normal passage on your trip. And thank you for sharing this with us!
Loved all the singing and guitar playing! Not a boring episode at all. ❤️
great job on the video Renee. feel free to play us a complete tune sometime Finn. Stay safe
It’s funny that you think that this one is boring but I think it is an excellent episode. Don’t worry about what you think, we love everything you guys do. LOL 🤙🏽

I finally caught up on all of your videos. I started watching sailing videos years ago but fell out of it because I didn't like the "party boat" kind and then found you guys. You guys really do fill a niche of family boat, scuba, and water sports that really is interesting and wholesome. Keep cranking them out! - An Okie dad without a boat
