No, we don’t walk that fast…some scenes have been sped up. Covering song is ‘Just Walk’ by Colton Walls on Epidemic Sounds which we thought was fitting for this adventure.

Keep an eye out on Sunday where we show you another awesome spot to eat a marmite sandwich in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. We hope you enjoy it! As always, thanks for watching.

After spending 3 years sailing within New Zealand & preparing for offshore sailing, we sailed our 40 ft sailboat Te Tāiko from New Zealand to Fiji & enjoyed the beauty and tranquility Fiji has to offer. We've now said goodbye to Fiji and have completed our first ocean passage (bluewater crossing) as a couple (only the two of us aboard). We have continued to sail west to our next destination, the beautiful country of Vanuatu. If you’d like to join our journey, please support our channel by clicking the subscribe button and leaving us a comment. A big thank you to you for watching and a massive thank you to our Patreons for your support and helping make this possible. In December 2021 we moved aboard our sailboat Te Tāiko, a Chico 40. Tāiko is our floating home. She gives us the freedom to go anywhere the wind and weather allows. We release a new video every Sunday. #boatlife #boat #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailing #travel #sailinglife

The slipped clove hitch is a useful modification on the standard clove hitch by finish the knot with the a bight in the working end you build a quick release into the not which makes it the perfect knot for securing your fenders to your boats rail. Follow the link below for a full demo. https://youtu.be/NZaBMuOhgWw The clove hitch Along with the bowline and the sheet bend, it is often considered one of the most important knots to know. A clove hitch is two successive half-hitches around an object. It is most effectively used as a crossing knot. It can be used as a binding knot, but is not particularly secure in that role (we prefer the constrictor knot for these use cases). A clove hitch made around the rope's own standing part is known as either two half-hitches or buntline hitch, depending on whether the turns of the clove hitch progress away from or towards the hitched object. The slipped clove hitch is one of the easiest fender knots to untie we would only recommend these for short stays or when you a remaining on the boat while docked. If you will be leaving your boat for an extended period of time the Round Turn with two Half Hitches another option to consider. If you want to learn some other skills for docking your boat why not check out our video which compares the Cleat Hitch V OXO for tying your mooring lines to fixed cleats. https://youtu.be/LepMcTJuFfI If you want to learn the other knots mentioned above check out the links below.
