Amazing WHALE SHARK swim with Sailing Zatara - Ep 112

Amazing whale shark swim with Sailing Zatara After Finn's surprise return to the boat, we have 10 days to show him what he is missing. Luckily, we have Keith and Renee from Sailing Zatara to thank once more. They have invited us and many many others out on their boat for a day of swimming with whale sharks, the world's biggest fish, along the Ningaloo reef line. Ningaloo is one of a handful of places where whale sharks appear annually and today, we really lucked out. The ocean is teeming with krill which has encouraged the whale sharks to the surface where they are happy feasting, without a care in the world and seem oblivious to us who are happily swimming alongside them. It's a win win situation.

It took 6 weeks and he and his rowing partner, Phil Stubbs, won the inaugural Atlantic Rowing Race. His first taste of a blue water ocean crossing. Skip forward to 2014 and, married with three children, Rob and Rachel purchased Javelot a 43 ft Fountaine Pajot catamaran. Armed only with Rob's 3 years of racing P class yachts from the age of 11 to 13, and Rachel's non existent sailing knowledge, we set off to learn the ropes of ocean sailing. We broke stuff, replaced stuff and got to know our boat before heading offshore with the kids, Finn 18, Declan 16 and Ivan 13, in tow. Through trial and error, we have become confident wayfarers, kind of. Our plan? To sail around the world. Part of the journey will be retracing Rob's eldest brother Kerry's travels at sea. Using Kerry's original letters from the 1970's we will re trace his movements from Australia through Indonesia and South East Asia to Cambodia where Kerry's life was cut short after straying into Cambodian waters in 1978. Kerry and two friends were attacked by a Khmer Rouge gun boat, captured, tortured and executed. www.brothernumberone.co.nz ***** Follow us in real time on Instagram and Facebook @thecruisingkiwis @finn_hamill @declan_hamill @ivanhamill #NeverStopWanderingNeverStopWondering?. #TheCruisingKiwis
