We’re taking a break.. (Here’s What’s Next for our Boat)
This episode marks our last sail on La Vagabonde III—at least for a little while. Alongside a fresh and open Q&A session, we hope to answer some of your burning questions!
So join us this week as we return to Hiroshima to haul out and begin repairing the damage from the boat strike. This early preview offers a glimpse into the challenges we’ve faced and how we’re tackling them.
Your support means the world to us, especially in times like these, and we can’t thank you enough for sticking with us on this journey.
We’d love to hear your thoughts on how best to move forward. All advice is appreciated as we navigate the next steps.
With love (and a very Merry Christmas),
Riley, Elayna, Lenny & Darwin
🎄🎄🎄

Happy new year!!!!! Love all the videos, you are just the most wonderful, inspiring and creative family. Here’s to a fabulous 2025!!
Happy new year Myra ☺️ yessss let’s go 2025!!
It's not possible that you're only lucky, rather you're blessed.
You guys are like an extended family. Let us know how your are doing - whatever you choose to do! 😀
We’re doing really well now Annika 😌 cabin life has been nice! But we’re already looking forward to getting onto the boat again hahaha usually after a couple weeks in a house, we’re DYING to be aboard on our next adventure again. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you x
Merry Christmas. Thanks for the update!
Merry Christmas Gillian!! ❤️🌻
Thanks for another great update. Happy New Year! I’m bringing my La Vagabonde shirt with me to the Dominican Republic.
Oh yes you are 😎 enjoy DR! Merry Christmas and happy new year from us x
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas. Enjoy your time on land. Sounds like you have a good plan. Happy New Year to come. ⛵️😊
Just a thought... You're there and you're out of your home for a while. How about rent or even buy to resell a motorhome and really explore Japan. It's something I'd like to do but I'd have to do it on my own.
Merry Christmas! Glad you are getting to rest some during the holidays!
A break is good. Fix La Vagabond III and go back out when you are ready. We all need you out there to make this world complete. If in doubt about how to handle disappointment and regrouping follow Pip Hare in the Vendee Globe. She’s the masterclass of it. Best wishes to the 4 of you.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. I was so glad to see the boat doing 13 knots. La Vagabonde III will be fine!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Remember adventure is when your path takes you to unexpected places. Enjoy the adventure!
Hope you guys had a good Christmas! Hopefully there’s no hold ups with things and you guys are back on the water soon!
Happy new year! Can’t wait for your next adventures in the next year!
Merry Xmas to you guys! A break is a great idea. Spend time together without worrying about filming and entertaining …. You’ve all earned it. Go skiing, diving… get the boys in to school maybe? So many options…. Welcome back to the rat race 😳❤️🇦🇺⛵️
Enjoy the time away. Merry Christmas for you and the family. Not for us. Our 15 year old Husky had to cross the rainbow bridge.
Losing a family member especially one with four paws.... over the bridge for them to gather and play.....
I am going to miss your show! Glad your family was not hurt. Hang in there with the repairs, you are not at home. Have patience and keep up your health and counselling. Good luck and I hope to pick back up with the family when your vessel is well again. CG (coast guard) Wendy.🥰
Enjoy a little break. We will be eagerly waiting after your break. Happy New Year!
