yeah, Zaya, that's a question for you
no we only speak English and Mongolian
baby will just learn while he's growing
yeah yeah I think the baby will just absorb two languages
as long as I speak Mongolian to him
absolutely, yeah
yeah, I might learn a bit of Mongolian
yeah, I know a few people with um
kids growing with similar parents
yeah, they will just learn. You dont need to work hard for it. They just pick it up.
yeah they're little sponges aren't they I think that that
probably won't be an issue yeah we've got quite a few friends here
with grown up kids who speak well of Zaya version 2 for example
she's fluent absolutely fluent in English as you know and of course in
Mongolian its her native language
so, come May we will be looking for any help
with um changing nappies if there's any volunteers
from Terry
not related to any of them any of those two but there's some words
adapted from them later on yeah from what I've read these they have long
history so we created our own language right yes I don't think it's like
anything thinking and is it the the some savvy people in Scandinavia there may be
some relationship with them I think the the linguists would have us believe that
but that doesn't have any affinity with any other languages as far as I know but
the Russians did introduce the Cyrillic alphabet here which changed the
pronunciation of some of the words they did away with the old mongol script if
you've ever seen that it's absolutely beautiful it's a vertical so very ornate
scrolling writing still people here to keep that alive and quite a lot of the
Mongolians can still read it surprisingly enough Chinese characters I
think lots of people confused with the in demand go into so Inner Mongolia
China took from us small bits of Mongolia
and they didn't give it back so it's part of us but not the main yeah it's
quite rude how that Chinese China never say so they write their own history
it's very shrewd what the Chinese did with Inner Mongolia
you know they it was signed over I think as part of the post-world War one peace
treaties between Russia and China but they in order to sort of acclimatize the
locals to the Chinese culture they rounded up all the Mongolian men yeah
they offered them work you know which was I guess tempting so they took the
men that were working in also breeding age out of Inner Mongolia and moved them
into mainland China and had them involved in big agricultural and
construction projects yeah the ones who resisted disappeared it's very similar
that what they are doing in the western part of China at the moment with the the
Weig is if you're following any of that
the untold story it's coming out and the Western press a bit more now about
number of people that are disappearing but they're doing it was just kind of
like an ethnic cleansing process we displace all the the min and then though
of course the women are left behind and they haven't got any help on the farms
so the Chinese generously you know provide Chinese men to move into the
villages and help out around the normally as home health initially since
I have a very long period of time and of course you know trysts developed between
the the women whose men are away and the gardeners and the people who've been
sent to help out and they know at the time the population become sort of
Chinese that's that's the middle of the history of Inner Mongolia the Mongolians
beauty in the Mongolians in a certain way and the Chinese view them in a
certain way but they're it's a result of this history yeah even though something
the mungo is trying to stay rowing as much as they can but it's heavily mixed
and culturally repressed it will hell down so it's hard for them to be
Mongolian so thing also now the couple generation past so they probably have a
Chinese so it's hey they're coming Chinese long ago yeah probably right
there yeah yeah nice one Johnny yeah the it's interesting the whole tiny seems
fascinating and being right here in amongst adults just and I really cherish
the whole Mongolians freedom I really see it as a massive asset of this place
you know as you know this is the only democracy in Central Asia and it's a
successful democracy it's a young one it'd be a real shame to see the people
lose their politicians over the years have been very
and get two big neighbors out and I hope it remains that way but geopolitically
it's really tough at the moment there's a lot going on you know the you know the
new president and the US has openly said that he's not interested in helping this
part of the world any longer which has left a bit of a vacuum and Mongolia has
this thing called the third neighbor prop policy which has been very good for
maintaining that democracy here and also the sense of freedom and the fact that
we can have this conversation on whatever software were using which will
all be heavily regulated in China if we were just a few hundred miles south of
here so you know there's a lot that could be lost if Mongolia doesn't play
its kind of cards right can go forward so they have good relationships with
Japan and Korea and the US and Germany and Russia of course yes so that's all
part of the third neighbor policy reaching out to other countries to
diplomatic lien in the form of foreign aid so they don't just get sucked into
that Chinese vacuum they are really really anxious to get in here in fact 20
years ago whoever the premier of China he went on the record back then saying
you know they have three sort of ambitions first one Hong Kong second one
Taiwan third one Mongolia so and do you're just seeing now she shouldn't
been making announcements over the weekend about Taiwan which is really
disturbing and then the Taiwanese premier coming out today and saying that
she's looking at domestic arms production that's here seriously they
take it so yeah this part of the world's a little bit destabilized with with
America pulling back
yeah yeah - Jerry Richard you have to come here and experience all of you
should it's wonderful it's a real openness and the people which is just so
beautiful it's really lets you as an expat when you come here you walk down
the street and you know in the West we kind of look in glance at the stranger
and then we look away here he has an open face like that you know it's good a
little bit off-putting minute but it's just open and honest and and there's
nothing no malice it's a curiosity yeah it's lovely its innocence you know yeah
okay Richard Gere so Robert I saw an idea about boatsman it's that kind yeah
I don't know if I'd want to change lucky fish that much though we've kind of got
it right now yeah I mean I said where are you talking about a baby this big it
doesn't mean you know that's not really the the catalyst to go to a larger
catamaran I think it's a product of a whole lot of things why we're even
entertaining the thought and not at least part of it is just more cabin
space for guests and you have just taking on that kind of a project next I
guess we feel like we want to evolve why do I feel I got whatever though a little
bit yes yeah next stage yeah it's crazy is that
I think it's a human trait you know we get things right we start feeling
comfortable but we're never really contained it's a miserable condition
crying do you know like for the baby I actually do have that here they hang
them in the good but a string over the rafters you know
they do this thing called swaddling here you might have seen that in Russia they
do it here also they get the babies mate put him in a straitjacket like us
they're really small oh it's the looks like a net after that salute child
cruelty but I don't know maybe I'll have to do some adjustments it's all about I
think I guess the babies used to being in a very confined space at the moment
yeah they don't have prams here you know that all the babies always carried
either in a harness or just in the arms very unusual that the pavements aren't
really up to pran's anyway that need to be sort of fat tires and all drain yeah
I agree that I reckon to May is a special month yes that's right Andy
that's right and they do walk their babies and you know when it's minus 20
outside and of course having them wrapped up and four inches of blankets
and sheepskin and sinneth yeah it's it's the necessity yeah we try it's actually
quite a nice release I think both of us certainly for me to be editing video and
looking at those lovely sailing scenes when outside it's sort of cold the colds
not too bad actually you know what I prefer the snow and the ice to rain I'm
in England and it's drizzle you can have them you can cope with cold do we just
wear our warm warmest car and you can go out so I double
everything you know it's not too bad but rainin slashes and that's no fun next
week yeah yeah yeah we're going to go dogsledding
soon no please I can't she'll probably just drive along and meet us at the end
but that'll be a bit of fun there's a place about 40 odd kilometers out out of
ub maybe a bit more it's a sort of a tourist area with some good camp and
quite a major dog sledding operation out there something like 100 dogs mmm that
could be fun if we get out there on a sunny day I mean it's going to be very
cold but it should make for some really pretty video I hope blue skies and
icicles and all that and these beautiful dogs you know
that are adapted to living in us this climate I need to give me a few more
dogs now did a few months ago does it make
yeah well it'd be a first for me that's for sure how to bring the kid in the
tangka cat I'm not with you on that one which we lift the tap again with the bow
yeah I guess you mean to start ferrying the boy around in it you
I wish you yea will lash them to a fender yeah well we'd love to take any
more questions if you have any maybe we could just leave your watching Mongolian
television adult beverages in Mongolia mostly vodka these days but there's
their traditional drinks that are are fermented milk of cow or camel horse
horse particularly they do a ferment which is like a beer it's like a fizzy
milk I've actually developed the taste but it's taken years but if you can
imagine sort of bubbly yogurt warm with with about sort of try to narrow beer
we've got a five percent kick but it takes a bit of getting used to you know
so that's called earache and they sell that on the side of the roads particular
times of the year not now of course so fermented horse milk is the
traditional alcoholic drink absolutely I promise you to give you promise to give
you some more smoke and then if you go into the countryside of France samples
is dead does this and most families do they for me they do a double
distillation on the Eric they have a you know but still
and it makes a weak vodka yeah but then of course is big breweries here too you
know there's three or four major breweries they do a very good beer
called checkers wonderful beer and they also of course make their own
vodkas of varying qualities I can tell you that's one example where you don't
buy on price if you value your life yeah we've got a basic what a tall cable here
but it's we've got a basic connection we don't watch a lot of TV TV but we've
just started to get into Game of Thrones again though which could be a bit of a
problem we left at about three years ago up till about season before or something
two years
now we haven't said when the guy back - lucky fish met and we're not really sure
we would like to try and squeeze in a couple of months this season but that
would mean having to do it in the next couple of months before XY's you know
just not able to fly but I think that's probably unlikely more likely will be
October and that may just be me I'm here for a month to get the boat back in the
water do the work on it that I want to do on that on the wind Jenny and so
forth and then after I come down with the baby and they then burn right at the
start of the season that would be ideal yeah bring some tools if you would make
why not look great as long as we don't sit around talking all the time back
something we guilty of that thanks for the offer you know it'll be good right
yeah he building a tiki 30 yeah don't put a pot yeah I'm looking for the pasta
she could do that but I know it's um she needs a Snead's a partner with it
follow that dream I think Toya she's not building a tiki 30 let me know ya know
it's not quite the same that head around is it well I think we'll have fun I
think we'll have more of the Mongolian gifts on board over time I will bring
their own sort of slant bizarre vision - certainly has and there's a lot of
others other friends here that have expressed interest in going sailing but
with course we you know we are going to have guests on Lord Robert means we're
gonna have to have a bit of space for them so you know just wondering if we
should ask askew patron something while we've got your undivided it's a little
bit difficult really is now I mean you're such wonderful people you accept
virtually anything that we publish and you continues to support us and I can't
tell you what that means I'll just write a post on one of the sailing Facebook
pages this afternoon just say that the real untold story of all the sailing
YouTube channels out there are the patrons themselves and you know that's
you guys and I say that because you know I think it's remarkable that people
willingly pay good money for something that they can take for free and you know
when I first heard of patreon you know four years ago or so that 2015 it was I
was stunned I thought well what is the less you know why how does it work why
would it work what possible reason would this work and and it wasn't until I
threw some money in town gosh the first time I did in the sailing area was named
slipped my mind he produced two feature-length sailing films for next is
now down in Panama perhaps some of you guys might know them is quite active in
social media and I've sent them $20 or something
PayPal and after I did that I felt a lot closer to him and what he did and we
communicated for a while and we kept in touch over a couple of years actually
and it was a real game-changer and since then when I see somebody who's done
something that's helped me I often just go to PayPal even if it's just a couple
of dollars if they've got something there just to say things so it makes you
feel when you use that service again whatever it may be that you know you're
a part of it and so you do get something back a much more I guess a feeling of
cooperation which is which is nice so I understand why you do it I'm really
grateful for it but I think a lot of other people haven't really got it yet
perhaps it'll perhaps it'll get that way also I'm also quite excited about it as
an alternative revenue model as well rather than going around sort of selling
things and doing exchange like that just to have someone voluntarily support a
service that's quite remarkable could be a bit of a game changer if we can allow
it to grow if enough people get behind it be just taking it absolutely yeah
yeah that's interesting I mean I see our eighty odd patrons who support us now I
see you guys as a very loyal core group of people who do this for no reward
other than the videos that we produced and that's remarkable but to grow in
terms of patronage it seems that you need to go out and offer a reward and
that's when it kind of starts to change a little bit then it becomes a it's no
longer just a straight-out tip or you know money in the market for
the bus gap which is where it's at at the moment with us and if that that's
that's a fabulous relationship I think of you take you to another level the
relationship does change a little bit so I do see you guys
is a very special group yeah that's a bear right Mac yeah until about waiting
on the whole season right up to about May I would say don't know too far ahead
to plan but we're still gonna stick around in the Caribbean or up the east
coast of the US so that plans still on them on that
guide you know if you remember we were planning to go up maybe as far as New
York when we first got into the Caribbean we we spent a wonderful season
hanging around Florida instead so yeah yeah well that's true Terry we wouldn't
doubt if we didn't enjoy it though it is yeah it's inspiring both ways it's the
community that's the wonderful thing and it was the thing that drew me back into
sailing that's what I missed when throwing in the career and all the rest
of it this job overhead but you know walked away from it and it was because
the people I was interacting in my career with weren't people that I was
missing that I you know that I learned to meet through sailing right from a
young age you know through all the different love affairs I've had and
sailing over the years it's those people and that fraternity that you meet that
eat that I was missing instead I was sitting around meeting tables talking
about hedge fund managers and investors and miners and people with loads of
money that still wanted more I thought well goodness it's got to be more to
life than this and there I was 54 I thought do I really want to do this for
the rest of my life you know cut off would have been cushy so you know that's
why this relationship that we've learned about through patreon
but also through the you know the wonderful people that you guys meet
through our videos the people that win meets along the way I'll that's so much
more rewarding you know way to spend your days I think
ever never lights the engine not fixed make no waiting waiting for me to return
or you it bit easier now it's out of the water
we'll get onto that outboard problem oh that's nice Terry Wow yeah that's
wonderful isn't that great that's that's really
special way likewise you know you learn something every day right and it's thank
goodness for YouTube you know I just absolutely love it I really do I think
it's such an where I was told you know where would we be without it
you know we'd have cable and mainstream media and all the rest of it would be
lost what are your views if I could fire a
question at you what are your views on saturation of sailing stories sailing
videos has it become saturated is it is there still room out there to continue
you know putting out some when we're all the thumbnails and the titles going to
be finished with Rick on a reef and I know the toilets blocked and I live a
gonna tire of it I know I am I think we need to think a bit more outside the box
keep keep the same and genre alive you know we're actually putting a bit of
thought into that to really Nick hey welcome neck yeah well Nick come share
your research please we'd love to be we'd love to know what you're up to
yeah well yeah if you can get an Islander 55 would you think about
building it are you looking on second-hand market not many of them
built a few nice ones around though I suppose you know all about Thierry and
Japan beautiful bar I see he's just posted a new YouTube
video today to go see camping is the website to motion was yeah I reckon all
the actions on the comment section as well - go to a you know a video doesn't
matter for sailing or any other topic of interest and read the comments normally
find out if I want to watch the video or not watch me selling videos right now I
go on waves oh I see yes it does come waves you're right yeah we're I think
we're very fortunate to have all this information available given freely you
know and when we where else what we've learned how to edit video if it wasn't
for other people's YouTube videos yeah renewable energy excites me Richard the
rest of them look but gimmicky could be something we believe in or I could go
for a cat lower a little bit of a cat lover but renewable energy I think
that's the that's the Holy Grail isn't it is living on the hook
being completely self-sufficient for propulsion as well as all your energy
needs on the boat yeah that would be a marvelous place to get to not only and
cheering video but also just to get to that spot cuz I think we've seen places
now we would like to just stay for a few months fill the boat up with dry you
know dry goods and catch what we can you'll have to build it right there's a
saturation of all kinds of channels look I've got a later respect that their loss
probably more than any other channels out there I think though remarkable what
they've done they seem like reasonable folks you know it hasn't all got to be
here it's going to be fascinating what they do next you know with this
so-called Dallas - I think it would be big pretty full on yeah Nick
yeah well probably an email or do get yours and we'll start exchanging
yeah well we can wrap it up I'm happy I'm still full of pins but maybe we
should put you you guys out of your misery I don't know if you're here just
just staying on being polite to entertain us yeah you notice how we're
leaving music yeah over the last few videos I'm actually quite enjoying that
that doing that I think it's a bit more authentic in some ways
I like the music pieces I like doing the little musical montages especially when
you know so I was doing something nice and slow motion for the camera but but
that you know if you leave it out and just let that if we can record some
reasonable audio it's I think it's better for the viewer that they get more
of a sense of the authenticity of being on the boat so a music can be overdone
that's for sure I enjoy putting a little bit of Mongolia music when the
situation's right but I thought the copyright law was were pretty lacks but
I got burned on a couple Mongolian songs as well so have to be very careful yeah
the right Richard it's great no no I checked that out of finally that second
link that you send me Richard really good they were in the dinghy going
across the bay and there was another dinghy in the distance and you could
sort of look down and look up you find yourself spinning around on your chair
now it's with life virtual reality isn't it you aren't you're the one having fun
but there anyone else watching it looks a bit we hit back if you want your
ironmans 360 you know it was I think was farther by bit it was rather good it's
Richard signalling yeah yeah with so we're kind of enamored with the
Caribbean right now it's a real issue because of the costs are getting limits
on the absolute other side of the world from Mongolia if we
yeah there's some pretty stringent we in the West we don't get exposed to any of
us these issues but it's real I know when you travel with someone who got a
shot a bank statement of what your financial worth is a letter from the
employer to show that you're capable of supporting yourself for the three weeks
that you're going on holiday today in the country you're not going to become a
and overstay risk I mean there are a lot of immigration hit wins for for folks
and it looks like then Britain right now just heard of a case just made out
played out hundreds of times we know people are stuck in the EU and if the
brexit thing goes through there's going to be husband and wives who can't
conjoin in the UK you know they're going to remain separated simply because you
know the partner will the wife or the husband can't show you know a bank
statement with sufficient savings to come into the UK even though they're
married it's a bother I mean that whole border security thing and drive drives
you spare when you're on the receiving end of it hey Laramie welcome I think
Larry is probably our first patron and probably one of our first viewers so
they're very special welcome to Laramie you wouldn't miss alive would you we
don't do them very often it's great yeah massive thanks to you Laramie will
certainly put this up on on on YouTube publicly mates because I think you've
missed the lion's share of it the uses are is pregnant still baby is to invade
right i Richard hey thanks for joining us much appreciated
well yeah as far as the camera stuff goes you know we'd love to explore
a lot more but we're also really happy that we've been able to build something
around cellphones you know but I think we've got to put that behind us and move
on especially when I look at some of the other out of channels and the quality of
their videography might be time to up our game a bit there you may year nine I
Richard sleep well yeah well wouldn't that be great so I spend a bit of time
and Texas knows it better than I do
she loves Texan beef brisket if you didn't hear that that might mean
something to you it sounds pretty scrumptious here good night well look
let's steer let's communicate Nick and I mean it I'm happy to you know help it
anywhere I can yeah are they right Terry yeah that's the million dollar question
isn't it I think if they went back and did another referendum in England I
suspect that the levers might turn out in larger numbers because when they held
the first referendum no one really gave brexit a chance in the same way that no
one really gave you know the president of the u.s. a chance of the election so
if you go back to the people now with brexit they might turn out an even
larger numbers and I think you know any of the remainders are probably aware of
that it's really interesting isn't it only what's going on in the world right
stage of flux on so many fronts
yeah you mean though I tell the bricks that he is to watch our YouTube channel
thought has crops cross my mind nice baby bump
hi there sweet Benjen yeah press press good as a religion I could I
could become a convert I presume it sound is that a slow roasted beef thing
that seems to be what takes us is famous for I watched some of the food shows
Thailand yeah cheap ways to build a bogan wood cheap place to fit a boat out
in timber great craftsmanship in the air right no wonderful so I think we
answered my question about the saturation the only thing that tires me
about it is the seeing the same sensationalist titles and thumbnails but
I'll let you I'm sure you work this out anyway but from our point of view when
we invest the time into editing a video we don't really do the thumbnail on the
title thing first which is really what you should do so we should invest your
time if you want to expand your story in your channel and all that we'd kind of
well the way I plow into it as I get into the video and I look for the story
and then we sort of get the story out and then the end of it we go what we
gonna call it and twist if we got a thumbnail for it it's all wrong because
with YouTube you do judge a book by its cover so we should be putting more time
into that but you you know so we could call it what it is or we could give it a
bit of a twist or we could really go out there and exaggerate you know that's
that's the decision you make and you look back and you say well you know I've
just spent several days putting this thing together really would like as many
people to see it as possible what are we gonna do you know sorry
there's the stump what do you think of this done though
pause I he gets a bit tired of being on the thumbs all the time so we try and
mix it up but you know when I see it when I see it click baby title and a
thumb nothing turns me off or but we are guilty of putting a bit of
a twist on it ourselves at times we try and do it in a tasteful way but or a
clever way but it's bloody hard but it's a tough playing field now YouTube's
really hard to get surfaced now it's become just my view really saturated not
just in sailing but just now I tried to work it out recently
how much videos getting uploaded versus what the growth of YouTube viewership is
it's something like 20 fold more online video storage being added by Google
annually versus growth and viewers 20 fold so every year against 20 times
harder them to be seen effectively don't really hear that system much but as far
as I can see that's fact so having built you know like the loyal
group of followers we're so grateful for our 13,000 subscribers and our patrons
you know I feel that's a real accomplishment and you know we'll just
go on trying to do what we do and try and build on that we're kind of happy
with sort of low linear growth I think we're ever well I think we're looking
for the big hit that's going to punch it out of the park but we're quite happy
just to continue growing where we are if we can do that against it you know a
field that's getting 20 times harder annually and we should feel pretty happy
kid you know I hear you know it is amazing we just take it for granted a
human beings we just absorb new innovations and treat them like um you
know that's the norm within days and then we complain when they don't work
there they it's it's doable I think for hoops fresh minutes is definitely do
we did it for quite a few months last year in fact we gave our surviving
plants away at the end of the season to a lady in Guatemala so and that was nice
some enzyme invariably cooks on board would go do those fresh herbs every
night prune a bit you know it go into our meals so yeah I mean that's a fun
side to it you can do it got to keep them out of the wind and keep them well
watered but there's all sorts of solutions out there if you can dedicate
a little bit of sheltered space to vertical planters and that sort of thing
you could probably grow a lot more than just you know herbs you may be able to
grow lettuces and tomatoes and that sort of thing this goes fast
there's hydroponics I don't know how we you know we obviously haven't had time
ago wouldn't know a lot of other things with the boat but you know that would be
a logical area to get into getting a little bit of fresh produce growing on
board you know get a chicken neck there's a fellow who who does it but
you're gonna get to an egg every day from it maybe not all year round
cuz they go off the light at night but you might have seen the French guy
that's getting around with a chicken
it's interesting what we're seeing with our videos now is that we get about
7,000 views in a week and that's it you know the video will sit there then for
the rest of its life maybe pick up a few a few hundred views you know every week
or two after that and it's like there's this 7,000 people out there who to me
they feel like they're the same people
so we're not really when we grow a little bit of course that's that is sort
of slowly growing this so the summer kind of wonder
doesn't matter about the thumbnail or the title you know it's the same folks
they're gonna watch it they enjoy the story that's it we don't need to really
is not really a lot to be gained by you know stripping they'll wear
clothes off and running around naked that might be that there might be the
death of the channel who's a great poster girl for lucky fish who you mean
yeah so you know in some ways I'd like to say well look you know this is how we
cross the Gulf Stream boom there's the title for anyone genuinely interested in
finding out how we went across the Gulf Stream kind of considerations that we
made that's the video for them but then you've got the sphere that you know put
it on a realistic title and a realistic thumbnail on a video might just crash
now you put it out there because who's gonna click on that we don't want to
find out anything we want to be entertained you know I don't know if you
if you knew this psychology of why we click on thumbnails then got to be a
very wealthy man but I know bikinis work that's a bit of a no-brainer I always
think it's funny that Google pay thousands of software engineers to
design this amazing algorithm that you know draws in 800 million bits of
information off every video when it gets published or so they'd like us to
believe and in the end of the day all of this is six selves you know I mean
that's been the way for thousands of years something to do with us guys yeah
it's yeah yeah the bondage one you know zyre
and I edited that first few minutes together there was a lot of fun yeah
well you know this there's a bunch of really good channels out there that's
for sure I think that'll really turn off a good content you know mixed turned me
on to a few actually guys you follow quite a few don't you make and I gotta
say just about every channel Mac that you told me about in Bahamas I have
caught on to them and enjoyed them you know and one of them I haven't thanked
you for is SV seeker Doug Jackson who I've corresponded with since since you
mentioned and because I think what he's doing is just remarkable
he's building a 74 foot steel junk in his front garden and Oklahoma he's been
doing it for me an eight and nine years and it's very much an Internet inspired
cooperative in some ways it's yeah quite something and you know I used to look at
the rankings on the YouTube channels and I used to see this s vck rusty junk the
thing at the top I thought you know there they were right up there with the
big two or three sailing channels another what on earth is that a little
bit up do you know a steel John for goodness sake but of course it's not
about the body but I think it's about Doug himself he's a remarkable man you
know and he's he's just do you produce great videos guys if you haven't looked
don't worry about the junk go and check him out I think he's jumped be pretty
remarkable to you know of course by association it's a ship 30 or 40 tons
but he's getting it done and he's going off on his side tracks like he spent a
year building a remote operated vehicle you know a submarine thing for doing
research perhaps you guys know all about them
yeah that's true yeah that's right theory it's over we've we're spoiled for
choice absolutely but you know the seven and a half billion people in the world
and the remarkable thing is you know pick up the camera and tell a story and
I think everyone has an audience yeah well Mick that's used to be true
that title represented the chances of YouTube
giving you serving you up that is a solution as a as a result in your search
but directly you know I do find some of the creator studio stuff and they had
their search and discovery team on one of their videos recently and straight
out of their mouth they said meta tags are finished with their following the
public and the public click on title and thumbnail thumbnail primarily and that's
how Google search now sort of classify the video I don't know how they do it
but around an image and around the title that's 95 percent of the resultant
search is coming out of thumbnail and title not out of meta tags which used to
be where all the content of that the video would be inputted by the you know
the the Creator we write these meta tags and yeah it's gulfstream that's behind
us it's Florida or whatever and if someone searching for a sale like to go
and do that we might rank in the top three pages or something that video
might but no longer so that's pretty sad so Google are kind of being driven by or
YouTube is being driven by popularity rather than serving out press good
quality results you know you can have an enemy who is coming
whether the worst comment would have to be one it hurt the most right so it
might necessarily be a bad comment just I have to think about it
then we've had surprisingly few that's been amazing
I think we've banned from the channel I don't know what will be the same person
but probably about three or four knowing
Tim dead star he used to keep wouldn't leave us tickets to Dan and Alicia see I
remember the nines it's terrible isn't a couple of bad ones but it might be the
same person you don't know but yeah they seem to give it up man I need finally
really banned someone a fade a sort of racist or a sexually insulting or
something like that when it's very few but the you know hurtful ones now I'm
not really here for no no it's been good I mean I guess you could have your pride
knocked a bit that's education so I try and treated this value contributing
commentary most people are really constructive it's one-fourth it's a
really happy place and our comments with our videos don't know if you guys
noticed but there's a really happy place they're wonderful people genuinely
trying to conjugate that's nice you know
well that's tricky to say here that one is hit for weenies or a lot I've got a
terrible habit of holding the camera and just play the hole the camera up there
obviously yeah right Terry absolutely it's neat oh really yeah well
Laramie I'm gonna you missed out on the first part of this video with thinking
about trying to get a bit more about with a bit more cabin space so we can
share it with guests and patrons well joy I know I felt like I should have
seen them especially now because I know it isn't she social media much but Jones
coming up here we have a video soon and Marcel of course he's in the next he's
in next week's Marcel and nan today is his wife and his son they are we had
five onboard myself and surfers yeah yeah
Belgium and now I live in Thailand and he's building it he's building two worms
that's another story you get some fun because they eventually leave yeah
Laramie there is an element of that but isn't that true of all of us two weeks
to fix as good as that you know yeah yeah good one Nick well that's why we
wanted to start the channel that's why I wanted to start the channel because I
was the same you know forty years I've heard about worms completely ignored
them it was a kind of a stigma or people that have a hippie dippie or something I
don't know there was the nudity thing with Warren
himself multiple wives you know he was never really accepted but you know we
went through that whole process we talked about other than early that the
eyes of investigating other boats and then following the philosophy and then
winding up with a warrant and then falling in love with it know pretty much
first sale you know it was amazing this is like a magic carpet to sail on this
thing that motion of those house is a real set of Justin still such a sense of
safety in you if you have got registered about catamarans the worm's a really
safe platform you feel it on the boat straight away and that's you know don't
get me started there's a good video I don't know if we'll kind of expand on it
a lot but we did one with James I was really happy to get that one out it
didn't get a lot of views but James is just in the process of buying a tiki 38
now he was one of the guests he came to check out our bike before making the buy
and he and I just bounce stuff off each other for a moment like sire and James's
partner cat for two tiers I'm sure the team days or so we were just going off
of all these things about the part that was fantastic and he's he's got a load
of exciting experience and he's a really good talker - he's got wonderful
expression so I thought would be great to get James his views out there rather
than just hearing it from me so - video if you get a chance to see it he water
his public yet he's still keeping it at the corner
you lease one people are all very secretive about their deals they don't
want to lose them there was another one just came up to today on the worm
cameron group from it's a fellow asking questions about what you would do when
you were surveying a Tiki 30 and Rory piped up and said something like oh yeah
where's the boat what's the name of it because of course were always just
bought one and no NES Rory sit or aren't you telling and the guy never came back
so I really getting a good one is difficult and I know exactly what those
guys are going through when they come across something they want to give their
talons in it before thank you much about it's understandable we missed them at
the end when Mick left no I don't know if he would talk about this Mac but when
you left and that was the end of the season it was the both felt quite dead
it was just the two of us and we loved each other's company we spend 24/7
together but there was a really special time of that and that did leave a
lasting impression on us in a lot of ways that season was a test for both
siren I had to see whether we would enjoy doing you know that the gist thing
and that in the chartering sort of angle and I don't know many of you know that I
actually started a charter company founded one in North Queensland in 1998
and then ran it built it up to about six beer boats and North Queensland opened
up a hole near the area about 500 square miles 14 Islands got the environmental
permits and all the marine safety permits and so forth and it was quite a
successful business we had a lot of headwinds like in any business but and
then I sold it in 2003 and I really enjoyed it but it was 24/7 and it was
bareboat if you'd only met up here but once you
say goodbye to the babe that leaves the harbor it's kind of beyond your control
we didn't have any coronal incorrect inquests we didn't have any major issues
actually a couple of groundings and that was about it after hundreds if not
thousands of charters but at the end of it I was pretty exhausted I thought what
of it if I ever get back into chartering again it'll be skipper charters skip it
and crude so you can at least be with the boat and keep an eye on things so
that's always been in the back of my mind as well and so we were kind of
dipping back into that charter thing and seeing weathers house Ohio felt about
having people on board and it was a bit of a trial with seasoned and I think it
went very successfully you know we feel really positive and well and as I say we
will live for that feeling at the end of the season so it may be maybe a path for
us going forward future well this it was five years
before and we thought we were winding up but now there's nine of you so keep the
questions coming oh I'm enjoying the moment to be able to interact with you
oh it's wonderful yeah Andy is it is it I don't know what if I don't know what
that decrement mean Sorry mate I'm right up on that millennial stuff but it is it
is brought up yes I think you're right yeah he won't be able to contain himself
when he goes public and tiny spots about to go in the water - I guess Toni's busy
Joni couldn't join us but Tony and shots you've probably seen him coming a bit on
videos from time to time he's the fellow who's just completed construction of
this TV 38 in Philippines yeah yeah well I'm sure Nick absolutely yeah I think
that was one of the roles that they were designed for
apart from being you know cargo boats or boats capable of carrying
ten tons of cargo they will so well in fact trad the 55 in japan is being used
as a charter boat I can put you in touch with him if you like Nick if you if you
want to exchange but you can just write to him yourself he's a nice fella there
looks like a couple of new people have joined us so you have to write your
names or note something in the comments so we can welcome you we're just about
to wine things up which is a bit sad because I see there's 11 viewers out
there now there are me you can't go wrong and it's just down the road from
you this is the remarkable thing you guys in the States are so lucky to have
the Caribbean right on your doorstep if exhale emotional and you're you're a
serial patron aren't you a while yet Mick it's gonna be a while that probably
at least a couple of years probably longer away to be honest but we've got
all the Central America to see we've we really would like to get up and meet
patrons particularly in the u.s. maybe up the eastern seaboard and an all
honestly the Caribbean still holds a whole of an attraction for us so we
don't feel rushed to get a to get out across the Pacific it's it's quite a big
step coming from a person who was born in the Pacific when you carry out that
way we might never come back it's quite possible and we're also going
a very long way from our viewers who we've grown to to
love and be close to I'm starting to see it from a sort of a northern hemisphere
centric point of view and the Pacific is know there's a bloody long way away from
everywhere take it from a Caitlyn Johnny you crazy man
you should put some of that money aside for your own boat ah that's sweet we're
your favourite at all then you got to come out for sale with us who you all
should if we can arrange it one way you'll find the way well we might have
to bring the boat to you I think that's what we would like to do is get it into
the u.s. so at least we can go out and do some day sales with bunch of folks
want some central place at the right time of the year I don't know it's hard
to arrange you know coats they're always moving their army really okay
well keep in touch Mike yeah I've got a bit of a thing in mind to to sort of
base ourselves when we do get back in the drink to spend a bit of time around
Belize it's not far from Guatemala but it's got an amazing Barrier Reef there
it's got easy access to the states in terms of flights and visas and there's
no no issues and it's you know cheap you know beliefs beliefs so you know I think
what we what we would do when we do get sailing again I've kind of loosely been
thinking base ourselves out of Belize and just explore that barrier island
group up the coast of Mexico and try and do something with guests you know yeah
the police and also get into the dive inside bizarre and I both died but we've
done precious little lava mostly just small clean and of course the reefs they
are remarkable yeah hence the Leo I know what you mean Nick someone made a joke
about New Zealand the other day and it probably applies to South Africa to you
they said something like I never dated before you never got your
way around New Zealand by directions like to lift at the concrete hole right
at the trimaran lift at the end of step in the front
garden drew a tower on it guys that's pretty true do-it-yourself mentality
absolutely it's the southern hemisphere thing I think being so far away from the
rest of the world yeah good one right yeah well we'd like that idea too we did
that with our slow TV thing ages ago before Del's and it's actually funnily
enough that videos at about 13,000 views hmm and it just it's really literally a
camera setup just recording lucky fish on a pretty nice bit of champagne
sailing we're doing it with a 360 camera which is something that Richard Richard
Bergin's ping suggesting to us for a while yeah would be quite neat a Wharram
Oh II at Islamorada if I can pronounce that correctly it's
one of the keys it's in May though it's a month I hit it when you'll be there if
you want details for it let me know and I'll send them through your we can just
google it so warm Hui in May yeah I'm gonna make jokes like that anymore I
kind of couldn't believe it you know I made I thought it was a pretty
transparent joke about being sponsored by come on same time and a couple of
people sit down and subscribe to me
but I think that was sincere viewers we looking at our total viewers
he's like 25 years of yes yes someone was to sit down and watch 25 years
yeah yeah and so we were responsible for wasting 25 men years of human endeavor
by publishing video I think Dallas probably do that every month it's taking
us two years but they literally get the same number of views as we've had in two
years they get that on a monthly basis so that gives you an idea of the scale
of how much material is going up on YouTube and how much of it's being
watched where else Caribbean home oh my goodness don't want
to talk politics but just one observation um down in the Caribbean
this year we met a lot of cruisers who were one refugees from the Obama years
and two new refugees from the truck gigas the Americans just didn't have the
dodge and getting buying signin-box learning how to style and that's quite a
big need population increases skyping America yeah who's staying together on
the same beach you know that we love America but in Texas because we can sort
of dependent about but I'm pretty sad it's pretty I don't believe it some
people at all when we went to Cuba they were having a competition taking moments
they would that's right as they were hey by the way they invited us for the next
year yeah that was cuter than the Cuban marlin fishing contest well we had some
great experiences on that whole Cuba thing that sadly we lost all the videos
you know we might try and reach our story some other way but there's
memorable images sailing on the north coast of Cuba and seeing the local
fishermen that nothing more than rowing wooden door slamming big Marlin and I
don't know what sort of fishing technique they were using because of
course marlin fishing as we know it is traveling at quite high speed with a
lure but these guys were part and they must
have been helping Mick you know there must be doing something like that but
they were catching boudin Island you know we saw two we say so long at
North Coast you know one of them the first one we saw past or any 50-100
meters away going away there's the guy holding up his bloody Marlin to wave
back at us you know there were weak or of hand lights incredible 1000 it's a
good there axel yeah there you go they call them yets and the West or they
call them gears here I'm not sure if the vision is very that's it you can see not
really it's probably very pixelated where you are as well I guess but yeah
that's just some scenes of mongolian countryside the round
tents that the local people live in still the nomads
that's all we need really don't need much more just a year it's and a good
internet connection you know there's still this is amazing the thing that
amazed me that there's still hideaways in the Caribbean
after all these years of tourism down there you know with the cruise ships and
also I guess with the sailors to a large extent from that those sorts of tourists
well we had no trouble in a place as beautiful and as close to America as the
usiness and has done to death on sailing YouTube
channels we had no trouble at all finding isolated places I mean mechnikov
vouch for that you what about ruins bhowmick how fantastic was that place
and it was what two miles from Georgetown the absolute hub of the
cruiser community down there and we were in this lost world in this beautiful bay
and you know with there were sharks in this body or perhaps just one shark and
in the mornings he would jump out of the water and spend in the air if we never
caught it on film of course there's no warning there was a spinning shark give
you a hell of a start but yeah you know that you are in the middle of you know
cruiser central so it's not done to death at all the Caribbean maybe there
are parts that are but you know with a warm with shallow-draft you can find
find your places we might have to call it quits I things are getting a bit
Restless it's now four o'clock in the morning here so it's three hours past
their bedtime pleasure Terrier you know that yeah he's a champion yeah she's my
wonderful support guys without side none of us would be happening trust me yeah
oh we love you too all right no shame it's two minutes
behind I feel like you know it's like a message from miles or
something
thank you very much Andy yeah pleasure Mike thank you thank you all very much
well I'm gonna saw it off we're gonna end the string thank you everyone
enjoy the rest of the weekend wherever you are thank you bye
