WHAT HAPPENED TO MY NAVY SEAL BUSINESS PARTNER??? - Episode 184
In this episode, my former navy seal business partner Ben shares why and how we went our separate ways as business partners...
SV Parlay is a hurricane damaged Lagoon 450 catamaran, which Colin rebuilt with friends and has started sailing around the world. They found bulkhead damage on their catamaran in Panama, so have fixed her up, and are almost ready to cross the Pacific Ocean!!

It’s si funny how limited Jamie’s communication skills are though.

Dissolving a business partnership but still being mates speaks volumes for both of your character. That's awesome that Ben was so supportive, and sometimes even if it's not what the plan started out being you have to support awesomeness when you see it...
Good people attract good people, Colin, Jamie, and Ben are all amazing humans.

I could do with a few guys like these about the place.
Can’t lie, I’m really gonna miss Jamie’s infectious charisma from these episodes! Hoping his eye treatment goes well, and he’s back on board giving everyone a laugh in no time.
I think we all owe Ben a big thank you because we wouldn't be here enjoying the channel if he hadn't been such a legend. What a guy.
Man, that poor bird. So sweet of you guys to take care of him.
Ben seems like a hell of a guy. The poise and structure he provided allowed Parlay to thrive! Such a fantastic story of Parlay history! Thank you for sharing this with us!
That was a treat having Ben back on your channel! I've watched from the beginning and remember the backstory. It was nice to see his life and hear how much the two of you mean to each other. True friends are meant to be loved and treasured. Saving a friendship, and honoring a business deal, speaks to the quality of your character. Jamie, I wish you safe travels and a speedy recovery. 🤝
Everyone knows you and Jamie are great guys; what's wonderful is now everyone gets to see what great guys US Military Veterans are. 🇺🇲
I think most of us who watched from the start understand about Ben. And have seen you host him several times since you bought out his share. It's great that you two have such a good friendship to this day. Alot of times a business relationship can kill friendships. But I think Ben is always welcome on Parley and it's great he seen your potential and passion to create Parley Revival and share your journey with all of us.
Ben seems like a really great dude and he definitely doesn’t seem to be struggling he looks very healthy and happy. It’s also such a blessing you guys are still great friends
I love the bravery. Colin for dreaming big. Ben for moving to a foreign country to own his dream home. You guys are truly inspiring!!

Bula!bula brother amazing story bro things do happen for a reason we met people for a reason bro your living the dream🍻vinaka 🍻
Thanks to Ben for his service. To be a Seal is even more reason to respect him and thank him for his hard work and dedication. That was really great of him to give you his blessing and financial support. I hope he's rewarded ten times over.
What a great man and a great friend! Takes a big man to realise you have to let someone follow their dreams especially when money is involved
This was a very special episode on so many levels. To see the friendship and level of insight as to how Ben assessed, saw in you , put ego aside and moved to a mutually beneficial outcome… man.. true testament to the man he is. Keep pushing forward and let the next adventure await!
Hi Colin, what a great story about your partnership with Ben! There aren't many men like Ben on this earth. He obviously recognized what a great person you are indeed. Love your channel brother!!
Ben is a Rockstar! Thank you for sharing the story! Keep the Dream alive!
I've been around since almost the beginning, it was great to see Ben again! Jamie, we will miss you again but anticipate your healthy return! As always, thanks for sharing your life with us Colin!
Am I the only dying to see Ben's reaction to his snake plant?! 🤣🤣
So nice to see such a genuine friendship - people like Ben make your life richer
There are two kinds of friends, One you can call at 2 AM and say I need bail. Shore thing were and how much.They don't ask why, the other you call and they ask WHF did you do, I can't help bro. If you have good friends that believe in keeping good you found a soul mate, guys don't talk about it nor hide what you need to hear from them. Protect your buddies, could be your kids, worker,biker or someone that helped along the way. Ben is one of them good paths you guys were on Keep it real..
Great friendships are hard to find, awesome to see Ben again.
I like Ben. Reminds me of a era when friends were true to each other, reminds me that out there in this crappy mixed up world we find ourselves at times, there are people who remain faithful to the goodness we hold within ourselves.
Hoping that Jamie heals quickly. We will miss his laugh, I don’t think I have ever seen Jamie upset. What a great sailing buddy.
What a story. It brings back your faith in humanity. I hope Jamie has a nice time with his family and restores his eye sight. Keep it going. Love the videos.😊
Colin, you are one very rare individividual and I'm so glad I came across your channel...I'm hooked🙂
Shout out to Ben, he is one standup guy to allow you to chase your dream and support your larger vision and give you the means to help make it happen. Not many people like that around.
Great times with great people is always a great day. 👍👍🍺🍺☮️
Seriously Jamie needs his own vlog bits like TikTok, half the stuff he ever says will always put a smile on everyone's face! I'm so glad he's stuck around!
Thats cool to have a friend like that, that can help you with your dream. Have wonder for some time what happen, Ben seems like a real good friend.
Good story of how things started and not ended just continued.
Cheers Ben. Thanks for being cool.
Excellent Episode! Congrats on your accomplishments and your deep friendships ✊🏻👏🏻💯
Hooyah! It's remarkable how Navy entrepreneurs understand having teammates achieve maximum potential, it on not only elevates the whole team but it also cements friendships that are worth dying for. Bravo Zulu
The Saturday upload has me checking my calendar! 😎
Thank goodness that bird knew to choose you!!!! Thanks for sharing your journey!
G'day Colin, what an absolute great video mate. It's nice to see that your friendship with Ben has only grown stronger since your Business relationship ended. Ben's definitely a true friend, mate. BTW: the EDITING on this video was absolutely bloody amazing. Colin, since you took over the job of editing & shooting video for Parlay, the quality has been impeccable! Keep up the great work. Cheers from WA 🇦🇺 .
That was a really great episode .. you can see and hear by your emotion how much that man does mean to you.. such a great personal story to share.. that is a friendship that will stand the test of time
Super cool how you guys saved that bird! Bread actually happens to be bad for birds digestive systems, so if you are able to give it a little bit of fish or something like that next time it would be safer! Awesome video as always!
Having had friendships, turning into business relationships, then things going south, ending friendships... I can say: You can be so proud about yourselves! Massive respect to Ben and to you holding your course!
That's love. ❤ we all need someone who believes in us even when we aren't so sure.
The partners demonstrate a high level of emotional intelligence in working through the diverging visions.
Shout out to Ben for being an all around good dude
Great episode. It was good to see you and Ben are still friends. I was always curious of what happened but it wasn't polite to ask. It speaks volumes of what a good guy he is. He has a beautiful home. I think you are both lucky meeting one another and we are lucky that you took the path you did and the bird is very lucky. Tears in my eyes this episode.
I remember the Tamarindo airport 30 years ago. No buildings and the pilot would buzz the runway to get the cows off. Good times!
What an awesome human. Good friends like that are hard to come by. Cherish that relationship.
that house is beyond gorgeous
Ben is a legend!
Ben is a legend
Colin & Ben. Brothers in kind, frickin awesome 👏
Coming from a 25 year video and audio editor. Your editing is top notch now. Whatever changed in your editing process was a great change.
That's integrity, through and through. Good on you. 👍
There is no better reward in this world than helping someone elevate themselves and achieve their purpose in life. Relationships, friendships, and blood are the only real things in the world and everything else is just noise.
You guys are visionaries ! Great stories. Love honorable people!
Parley Revival is many things to many people, for me you represent the adventurers that I wish I’d I could be. And the bird scene enforces the notion that no good deed goes unpunished.
Thank You for saving that bird.
Love those pups … they are so chill
This story deserves a lot more views!
Lovely story Colin. Respect earns respect.
What an incredible story you both share! Fair winds and following seas to you both!
What an amazing few moments w/ you and Ben explaining what happened.
That relationship is what helped me to turn my life around years ago and I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for these inspirational videos every week!! I look forward to the day to share my testament with you, Colin !!safe travels, and it’s true calm seas do not make strong sailors. with that said, be safe look forward to hearing from you on the other side :-)
Love seeing you again
What a Beautiful story of Friendship ❤ Thanks 4 sharing 🙏🏼
Great story of trust and a bond between good people willing to help and share.
I love how you live life to the fullest! You r inspiring!!
Great story Colin! Entrepreneurship is messy, exciting, challenging and beyond words rewarding. Wishing you continued success!
Some solid friendships, thank you for sharing and completing the circle. Take care Jamie.
The bird was just asking you for help Dr. Colin, He just left you a good luck present.
Awesome video. I have been following since the very first video. Good to see Ben on here and to hear his viewpoint of what had happened. You two guys are really stand up and such good friends. Good luck to Jamie and looking forward to seeing him back on Parlay.
Thank you guys for being kind to the animals.
Ben, I love your style, and above all else thank you for your service!
A story well told. Thanks for sharing what happened with you both and the business partnership
Awesome video. I've been following almost from the beginning. I didn't even want to ask about Ben thinking that you'd mention it when you were ready. Glad to see he's doing well and that things are still good between you. It shows you are both really good people!
Awesome! Video-and, I'm so happy you both told us the story together. Also, what a freaking blessing to have a retired Trained Navy Seal as a best friend - Wow! That is the coolest thing ever. I want to thank him personally for his service. also for him to have faith in your dream because you're touching many people. Everything worked out beautifully. PeaceAndLove Lori
Good things happen to good people. Here's wishing you both many great sunsets and long friendship!
Ben and Colin positive people always have these outcomes good on you both and for us an awesome channel to watch Fair winds fellas !!
I think this might be my favorite episode yet. good people attract good people
Truly amazing and beautiful story about how Parlay Revival was conceived and then evolved into it's final form. Thank you for sharing this with us and as someone who's been here since basically the start of it all on KZread it's awesome to hear the whole story straight from the horses mouth as they say. Fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless...
I can feel your gratitude...it's a beautiful thing!✌️💜
Really beautiful testimony to the idea that being a good person will draw good people to you. Great episode, thanks for the update on Ben!
Praying for you Jamie! You're an understated party of Parlay.
oh man god bless the great people in this strange world wish you all the best
WOW you both are such solid dudes! Life goes in many directions & it looks like you both scored!!! Thanks again for bringing us along! Good luck Jamie!!!
Great episode and nice to hear the history you have with your former business partner! Good to have friends who believe in you! Love watching your channel! Greetings from holland :)
Navy seals are all about brotherhood and he would have had to trust you which he did and for him to let him pay you back in your own time makes him a true friend.
Great video guys. Had me laughing my ass off a few times. Great work with helping the bird, loved that y’all were able to do that. ❤⛵️🐶
Awesome video! It's my beginning of the weekly regimen! Thanks for all the background details. Although you're not obligated to share any of it, we are grateful that you take the time and effort to do it!
awesome true story and episode. thankyou for sharing mate. all the best to you and your team. keep them coming. Cheers to You and Ben, a trusted friend🍻
About two years ago one I discovered I could not see out of one eye. It was like the eye was coated by vaseline. It was a cataract. Had a cataract operation (took a total of about ten minutes) and now have 20/20 vision in that eye. Amazing difference as I'm sure Jamie will find out. I'm sure he'll be back on board soon.
Lol at the mess made by the dog. Worse feeling ever, having something like that happen when you are invited to a friends house!!!!
Wow fantastic episode, blessing an karma. Maturity an no egoes , stars aline and hard work paid of.
What a legend
Got a little behind, so catching up. It was sssooooo good to see Ben! He’s been missed! Great to hear he’s been doing so well!
Hey Colin thanks for sharing from the heart mate. You have a big heart for people and that’s what attracts people to you. To be real and show a vulnerable side of yourself is not an easy thing to do. But the more you do it will be like a magnet to others. Kia kaha brother!
Honorable friends are a man's treasure for life. I am glad you have yours.
Thanks to Ben and Godspeed Jamie!
Jamie I have been a subscriber for awhile now and look forward to your videos. I thought I might loose interest once the repairs to your boat was finished but I enjoy watching you and the boys interact and find your laughter infectious. I really enjoyed this video and the story you told like you I believe things happen for a reason. Ric
This was a fantastic episode. Thanks for sharing.😎
What a beautiful house! Good friendships are hard to come by! Jamie, good luck with your surgery!
