James and Rhonda, We love watching you both have these adventures while seeing your relationship develop. Seeing James change in a good way. Rhonda thank you for coming into Jamie's life. James is enjoying life experiences.

I like when he says, "Hello, friends."

Hello Friend :)

Thank you both for the amazing views of natural beauty. It's about being a part of it all. Freedom. Living in the present moment...

James I was thinking I have never seen you happier since Rhonda came aboard. I thought it will be a shame when she heads off on her own adventures. Then I heard you say here she will sailing the world with you. Yes! I am so happy you two found each other. I love the videos even more now that you are enjoying life more. Rhonda brings a beautiful light to your amazing life. Cheers!

Piano piece during that first sail was absol gorgeous and set the perfect tone to usher in a fresh new day. Beautiful artistry all around as always.

This first KZread Comment is also brought to you by supporting through the Patreon…except I didn’t watch it early because I like my KZread viewing! Safe sailing James! 🤘

It’s cool when your anchored out a distance , and then dingy into the island and everything seems to get larger and larger and then you make land . Great stuff !

You two seem to fit like peanut butter and jelly, James. I hope somehow your paths continue together or perhaps one day returning to find each other and make that happily ever after. Cheers brother 🍻

Nice to see the travel map you created at 22:55 to show your travels. Amazing footage of the clear water and hiking and everything. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

We cruised that area exactly 50 years ago. We made sand castles for our children on the beach in Ketu Bay. They were 2 1/2 and 15 months,

Beautiful, thank you so very much for posting this bush walk. The clarity of the water, both fresh and in the sea, AMAZING. and very peaceful. Stay safe with your travels.

Bet you didn't want to leave that island. Ahhh... so peaceful. Very fun video, haha. Happy Sails to you both!

G'day James and Rhonda! Thanks for bringing me along with you on this epic little adventure through the forests and that spring was awesome i so would of been drinking the fresh water 💧! Cheers

That water!😍🩵 thanks for sharing your adventure! Beautiful.💙🩵

Hi James, and Rhonda, wow what a beautiful place you could spend quite a few days just relaxing in that place. Keep up the good work guys always love. Your Videos gonna be so sad to see Rhonda depart for awhile. And videos won’t be the same any more without the two of you anyway thing is always gonna move forward and hopefully come back together again. You will have more adventures in Tasmania Cliff from Queensland, Australia

Blissfully magic!

Great footage guys. See what we have down here. No snakes, bears or other nasties. Safe to walk barefoot. Probably would have left a baited line over the side of Tritea while ashore. If you don't catch anything, so be it. But in spots like that, there's a good chance of scoring a blue cod or two. Depending on the number of hooks you have. Just do them in a pan of garlic butter, with pepper. Awesome!! Again, thank you yet again for another awesome episode. Cheers. Take care.

I could totally be stranded on that beach!

Fabulous you two! ❤❤❤ Awesome footage, very jurasic looking but gorgeous 🤩 you guys rock!

Another great video James and Rhonda. We loved it - that part of the sounds is so stunning. D'Urville Island is one of those jewels in the crown of all of New Zealand and definitely a must do for anyone that is wandering around the country on a boat. Awesome and inspiring.

Hey James I’m so happy I found your channel. I’ve sailed with my dad out in San Francisco on his cal 29. And I’m now in Ohio sailing the lakes on a oday 222. Learning the ropes or lines I should say. Your videos help me a lot thank you.

Really cool.

Rhonda has a lovely smile and adds a great dimension to the videos. It must be her laid back free spirit aura

Thanks for sharing this beautiful scenery. You have a great camera. So clear.

You should visit where they filmed Our Flag Means Death Season 2.

Mooring balls are risky, too, even if maintained by the government. They are frequently built with subpar materials. Always good to put the drift alarm on regardless.

In one or two areas there used to be wild pigs.. but they take their native species protection seriously so they control the population...of anything that threatens ground nesting birds. When the first Maoris arrived it was home to one of the world's largest eagles .. capable of attacking a human...and some of the world's largest flightless birds. Today the biggest menace is the Kia ..high altitude Alpine parrots ...clowns with razor sharp bills that like dismantling things like car trim for fun ..but they do have a slightly darker side when their normal food sources get covered in Snow. They can attack sheep but they would have originally attacked the giant Moa's before they were hunted down by the Maori...and their eggs destroyed by their escaped pigs. 🪝🧙🏼‍♂️

No snakes in NZ, but we do have a spider (Katipo - Car T poor) that can give you a nasty bite. However, you'd have to know where to find them as they are not easy to find.

Only one spider that is a threat to humans . Katipo Found in drift wood in coastal areas.. The spider is not aggressive and bites are extremely rare.

When your cruising around on your diesel, what is your comfortable rpm that you run your engine at. Where is your comfort zone, not too fast, not too slow. Just curious, thank you.
