Ditto!
Captain Holly and Gecko with sharks, a cricket, a seadog, some beers and a rare little shark...why of course. Sail on Captain, sail on! ⛵😎
Thanx for this episode. I liked the nice guitar music in the second half.
wow Barry and Holly that is incredible‼️®™️☑️☑️
I’ve watched Barry since before he bought white shadow to cool seeing you guys together .
You're the best, Holly!! Cracked me up when Barry referenced Buddy Holly when you released the cricket!! And the fact that your name is Holly!! LOL Cheers!! :)
OMG my two favorite single handed sailors meet! This is a good day for sure.
Of course i know the Seadog and his blues songs, love everything hippie as i am one and have been since the 60's. Glad somebody like u carry this lifestyle on.....
Cool video with a bonus with Sea Dog. Yes, he is much slower than you. For your size of boat, you do quite well.
So glad you met up with Barry he’s quite a character. Well enjoyed another video. Merry Christmas
I watch both of them too, that’s cool
Holly I love that you got to hang out with Barry. So cool. Merry Christmas❤️
Thanks, you and Barry two my favourite sailors 😊
As long as I have been watching both of you I didn't think you would do a quickie. Haha. Loved it.
Man, I was wondering if you guys would meet up! Cool.
Happy Hoidays!!🌞🌲😎🏜❤🥰🥰🌈From the high desert of California!!!
i love that old seadog n u..glad u got 2 c eachother n spend sum time..
It was great to see Barry the sea dog again!
I know this lags behind… but you are in the land of sails and sailmakers nw so get a really good new one to last you the rest of the way around. Get the best you can. Everything else will work itself out, as you always do. Congratulations on living this life. I was there forty years ago so it’s really easy to relate.
So cool that you bumped into the salty sea dog. You do have similar channels which I really appreciate. In fact you are one of the few female channels that I follow because you don't use bikini click bate thumbs to build your audience. You are the real deal! Great episode 👏

Bikinis, the horror! Lol, I love Holly too, and every channel has something different to share. I don't judge.
I was wondering if you would meet up with Barry. I follow his channel as well and knew he was in Fiji. Fair winds and calm seas Holly.
Loved this episode more than others for some reason. Your naturalness & enthusiasm resonated more this time. Plus Barry of course. Keep living the dream
What an absolute JOY to see Barry. He's such a solid dude so glad you two could meet! Keep up the amazing work love your videos.
This is my first KZread comment. You both have given this sunday sailor so much joy, that I decided to say thank you. So, thank you. From Finland.
I love Barry! Both your channels inspire me!
So happy you were able to spend some time with Barry! What a truly unique individual he is, I’m sure loving being with a pretty woman for awhile!
Can't imagine what that would have been like at night trying to haul anchor and steer with the wind blowing you towards a reef by yourself. Perhaps a windlass is a must. Awesome underwater footage. Thank you.
Two of my Favorites! Wind Hippy & Old Sea Dog!
Wonderful two single sailors Barry will help all that needs help singer musician what more so glad you both met up for a quick talk.
Saw Barry passed through Barbados long time ago sorry you didn't get to come east in the Caribbean
Glad to see youet up with Barry. He's a real piece of work. But a good piece of work .
You take the cake among sailing channels, because you are a hippie like Me. the Nooch with Cucumbers, the beautiful little endangered sharks. I like how authentic you are. I do not sail, but a lifelong Big Wave surfer, having seen a million amazing things in the ocean in many places. Good On Ya...! Ken Aaron.
I adore this channel, and why does it do well? not because of any new YT algorithm, but because it's a real person doing a real thing (no covert real estate holdings supporting her). You are what everyone wants to become, what dreams of sailing away to freedom are made of, and that's a lot.

Wow thanks so much!! What an amazing comment to read :)
Wow great job capturing that zebra shark on camera. Love the underwater photography..all on one breath yeet yeet 😁
Been watching Old Seadog and you for a few years. Very cool that you guys met.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year ✌👍
the 2 best saillors on youtube ;)
The two best single-handers on KZread together - what a treat! I sub to a lot of channels, but definitely my two favorites. Thanks for sharing your visit.
Cool! You met Barry. I subscribe to both channels.
I have watched every episode thus far. And still, every episode is totally worth rewatching.
So glad you met/ spent some time with Barry. Also congrats on the endangered shark encounter!
The old sea dog, great catch up.
Merry Christmas Holly!! 🎄🎅 I want you to know that you are such a beautiful person. So beautiful, that for me, and I imagine a lot of other people who feel the same way, your existence on this earth gives me hope and happiness. 💖That is probably a really heavy ideal to put onto someone, and you are very self deprecating, so to you, that probably makes you roll your eyes, and say something like, "If only they could smell me, and my boat after one of these long passages, they would not think I am so beautiful." Both opinions would be equally true btw, (LOL), but to you, I want to say, "Namaste". (The light in me sees the light in you). Thank you for making your videos and sharing your journey with the world, and thank you for just being you. ⛵🌞P.S. I miss your singing. You are so multi-talented that having such a God given voice and musical ability probably gets lost with the day to day of being a boat Captain, but I wanted to remind you that your singing/playing is lovely, and missed. 🎵🫶
The best gift ever was discovering your channel. Happy Christmas and a most Happy New Year Holly!!!
Wow cool you met Barry I’ve been following him as long as you , he makes me nervous and you never have but I love his channel and watch him every time too!
HA wondered when you guys would bump into each other Baz and Holly are both Mad as a brush defo the best two channels on YT followed you both from the start ..this has made my day for sure
For spare bolts: get a couple of threaded rods (stainless), many nuts (std + nylock), a good hacksaw (with spare blades), file and thread locking glue (loctite or similar). Then you can make spare bolts of required length.
Great to see you with Barry, my two favourite sailors. Happy New year to you both.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Holly. It was cool seeing you with Barry. That's good news your sister is coming to visit🥳
Yay what a beautyful little shark! Enjoyed the bull sharks, too. Have a good time and a happy new year!
It is always a joy seeing you again, enjoying your energy.
It's awesome you ran into Barry ,you guys should have played a song or two 🤙
That was so much fun! You and Barry with the same glasses was great. I laugh so much when you are entertaining yourself when bored. Here is to another great year!
Yes. It was a great surprise for me too, seeing you my two favorite masters of the oceans met together. I knew Barry was heading towards Fiji Islands. Both you Hollie and Barry are my heroes. Congrats. Happy New Year for both of you.
I love him!! You both have great channels! Thanks for all you do for us.
I love the baby, cutie shark. He is special. Nice to see you with sailor friends!!! Watch out for that reef!!!!! AAAAhhhggggg..... thanks Holly. Happy New Years to you!!🥂🎶😎🏜❤
Always a pleasure to watch your updates. You are so brave and fortunate for your eyes to have seen and beheld so many wonderful scenes.
Ya never know who you’ll ever run into! Fun to see you and Barry together. Bill sharks looked huge! Stay safe. Feliz Navidad 🎄🎄🎄
Great seeing The Old Sea Dog Barry on your channel Holly!!! Happy Holidays
What a great video explaining about the shark studies. Then meeting up with Barry like minded and like spirit people. Wish a blessed new years.
Yay! I have finally caught up with you in real time(as youtube goes) after watching all your past content. Happy Hollydays! I really enjoy your genuine personality as much as your adventures. I also like when you play and sing. There is just something soothing about it. Recently found Barry as well. Safe travels!
Awesome video. Great to see Barry. Thanks Holly 🎉
looks like a leopard shark also‼️®™️
Compliments of the season, Holly and fair winds for 2023.
love the fact that you met the old dude :-) he was the 1st real sailor i started watching. i was watching delos but they were too commercial back then.
Holly glad to stumble across you again! Seeing you again has crystalized into words a feeling I had watching a much earlier vid of yours. You weren't focused on steering precisely, which blew my mind. But then I understood you were heading across an ocean and near enough was good enough. That moment of understanding was familiar, because it happened on my first cross-country flight in a light aircraft. Best wishes for 2023.
When I heard that you two met up , I’ve been waiting for the video , two of my favorite folks to watch
So cool to see you sailing all alone like it was nothing, you are a true badass! Wow
Great video again!!! Thanks for showing off the zebra sharks that was awesome for sure. See ya next week.
Gorgeous blue water! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
You bring joy by sharing your adventures . Thank you and stay safe.
Fun! I watch you both and seeing you together in the same video is surreal!
what a treat to seaa you meet up with the "Old Sea Dog " my two favourite solo sailers on KZread , keep on smiling you have a great one
Cant believe the old Buhk Is still going , You must be blessed
oh I say..Popping over to Barry's for a quick one and Buddy Hollie and the Crickets. two good giggles in one episode. Hope you had a good xmas the pair of you. All the Best for the New Year

Happy new year to you Holly! I wince every time you open your coffee pot lid, I've been scalded so many times by it shooting out of the spout thing in the middle! Hope you're having fun down there.
Thanks for Barry's link. Reef diving is gorgeous!
I love Barry, s Chanel ! He,s Funny 😅 Great episode Holly ❤
Terrific seeing you with the Old Man. I haven't seen your channel in quite a while. I watch Barry regularly. Great to see you two on the same episode!
Dear Holy, thank you for all your vlogs, each an extraordinary testimonial that freedom is one mainsail away. Wishing you a happy New Year 2023, fair wind and safe passage 😊
both are great adenturer . cheers and happy new years from France
Loved to see you and Barry hangin out! Cool shark experience! Thanks Holly! Peace
Merry Christmas! ❤🌲🌴 Carefull with the cabinfever :P
I've only just started watching your channel, so excuse me for stating the obvious, and something which must have been commented many times in your other videos..... You are just absolutely amazing! Your attitude, your spirit, your mind boggling calm and coolness in no matter which situation you are facing, the way you speak, your sense of humor.... I bow to you. All the best and a Happy New Year. xox
Different generations but both super cool 😎 great that you met up, been following you both since the start. Merry Christmas Holly 🎅 ⛵🏴☠️
Holly, congrats on your meetup with The Old Seadog. I've watched every one of his episodes and actually discovered you during the segment on his channel. Now I have the best of both of you. Hope you enjoyed your time on White Shadow. Keep on sailing! Bill
What an awesome channel and content. My wife and I love to see your adventures. My family and I love the ocean and go as often as possible. However we know nothing about sailing. It is super fascinating to watch you sail all over the world. And it is absolutely refreshing to see someone take their passion so serious, yet light hearted. You definitely break the run of the mill KZread travel vlog, just looking for like and subs. It is amazing content, fun, adventurous, educational, and inspiring. Thank you so much, happy travels, and please stay safe. We'll keep watching so long as you're posting.✌️😊👍

Man, the old sea dog couldn’t help but make a pass 😂👏🏽🙌🏽
Merry Christmas and Happy NEW YEAR
Check out the Sailing brothers new set up, they go just as fast and are much better balanced.
Is that a Garnier knock-off in the basket... Thank you for sharing! You are amazing!
Love your update! Merry Christmas Holly 💞🎄😍🙌
I know your a minimalist sailor but you need to solve the problem of anchor retrieval on a windy lee shore. It is the most common cause of single handers losing their boat.
Great surprise, l have been A subscriber of you both for years now! So glad to see you both meet. To say I enjoy your travels would be an understatement. I thank you (both) for your adventures! PS I don’t know if everybody does this but I try to locate your current video locations on Google maps on my phone while watching. Just fyi.
