Plans Shattered. What do we do now?

So glad to see things progressing. I certainly understand how you would be having flashbacks to the night of the crash...yipes! It looks as though you are all adjusting. Stay safe!

Hey, drama is great content! Amiright? Praying for you kids to be back on the water, enjoy your Japanese winter, which was the plan all long right?

Thanks for update. Just SO Greatful you are ALL safe .that's most important . A nd just so proud of those boys and YOU for who they are ,of course thier first question was Are THEY OK?. Just the most incredible, Stable, Lil Humans ...🩵🙏💞Always for you all and especially PEACE thru this holiday season and the nxt year 💞✌️

Wonderful episode. So happy you are safe & well. Question: if we like a video in Patreon- do we need to also pop over to YT and like it there for it to benefit you??

I loved this update. I appreciate you taking the time to keep us informed and your resilience and positivity during such a testing time for the whole family. It's good to hear that while the boat has been damaged, it can be repaired, and you can get back in the water again and continue with your amazing travels.

I gotta feel for you guys. While not the same, this reminds me of being in a severe car accident that was not in any way my fault. Sometimes shit happens The difference is what you do with what happened. Playing the what if game never achieves anything. For me, it's a trusted councillor (Kinesiologist) that I only found later in life (I'm 60 now) I was a kid at the time and I carry the physical scars on my face. It's the non physical scars that needed real healing. Just know, that kids are incredibly resilient. As adults though, it's incumbent on us to encourage the resilience of our kids. And we can't fool them because our vibrational energy will always speak louder than our words. So, I chose to get my trauma healed so that my words in supporting my kids aligned with my own healing. Remember to always be in the now. If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present. Lao Tzu Remember what the flight stewards say when flying "should there be a loss in cabin pressure, put your mask on before helping your children" You cant help your children if you are incapacitated yourself. Be well Elayna and Reily.

You are my heroes! I’m SO impressed with your ability to deal with adverse events. Seeing Lenny & Darwin looking so confident is a testament to your parenting skills.

Tho I have watched your videos I don’t believe I commented on anything because of personal issues taking my energy. I am truly relieved to hear you are all well and safe. Plus it looks like you are making good progress on heading for needed repairs. I am glad you are feeling love and support from all of us who have been thru so many adventures and exploits with you… know that we are always here for you. You mentioned something about losing a sponsor ? Not enough likes for your posts? Are fewer people watching? Are they following you on Sea People instead? I’m not sure how all of this works, do I need to increase my support money? Please advise.

Even in times of stress and strain y’all are a class act! Despite the serious subject, I had so many laughs and smiles today watching your vid. Thanks for keeping it real and amazing job keeping your shit together during the stressful times!

I keep asking myself, why did this happen to the four of you!Pisses me off… love you guys.

My advice is to move forward one day at a time and make the best of what life has to offer you. No worries 🍻

An amazing update. A lot going on. I was amazed at the boys empathy for the man that hit the boat. Looks like it's working out for you all. Good news.😊⛵️

This was so great guys. Thank you so much! With you all 100% and Lenny and Darwin are the best. I mean, the rest of you are OK too... Love!

Thanks for the update. I am continuing to feel bad for you. So glad, though, that you made it to Yuge. It is one of my favorite ports in Japan; I have been to over 70 of them. I chuffed, too, that you met Daniel Springett at Yuge of @seajapan. You asked for advice on the video . . let me speak as a parent of two boys and also one involved in accidents . . the shock will wear off, and your boys will be more muscular for it. Don`t give up on living on the water. if there are other reasons to stop, do what you have to do, but keep going for the boys. Good luck with the repairs.

Thanks for the update! Glad you can still sail and that insurance payments look positive!

Your video was moving, to say the least. Witnessing your wonderful mini universe full of joy, dreams, and love shattered by must-have-been negligence brings deep anger. Supposedly, the Japanese are acting with the utmost respect—the least they could do—perhaps they are as distraught as you are. May Eole provide you with fair winds for 2025—your boys are pure joy!

Thanx for sharing this. 🙂❤️

The update we have been waiting for. Thank you. I am so relieved things are working out and how you all are coping with the accident and aftermath. Stay strong and we are all with you. You will look back on this one day as you get older and it will feel like a hiccup in your total journey.

“What are you really doing at this point?” 🤣🤣🤣

Glad the damage is fairly superficial by the sounds of things. Hopefully the repairs don’t take too long and you guys can still make it to Tokyo for the concert and the ski season.
