We Found the Perfect Dive Boat.. in the Most Protected Ocean on Earth!
*Hey Patrons, now that this episode is LIVE on YouTube, we've uploaded a special AD-FREE version just for you. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the full adventure without interruptions : https://youtu.be/sE-O4KjTWo0
This week, Riley, the crew and I are taking you somewhere truly special.. an ocean sanctuary where the water is crystal clear and the marine life is so abundant it almost feels unreal ✨
We’re diving some of the world’s most iconic sites including German Channel, Jake’s Seaplane and more.. and had no idea just how wild it would get!? From rare events like snapper spawning to close encounters with manta rays, eels, and bull sharks (yep, BIG ones 🦈), our trip with Pearl Fleet Liveaboards is one we’ll remember.
Come along as we discover why this is one of the most fiercely protected oceans on Earth, and what that means for the incredible wildlife that calls it home.
As always, thank you so much for your support. We honestly couldn’t imagine sharing these remote and untouched corners of the planet without you.
Hope you love this one as much as we loved making it? Let us know what you thought of it in the comments below!
Love,
Elay, Riles, Lenny & Darwin (and our awesome crew)

Oh man, what a chapter, pure bliss, never gonna get tired of you guys. I love you. The gaps between chapters are huge, though, as it seems Josephine peaced out quite a while ago and only showed up in the previous chapter, kinda confusing and a bit of a bummer as I wish to follow your lives closer and more "live".
The underwater photography was next level amazing! Loved it! Love the voice over by the boys as well, they have developed a really international accent, I love it!
Thank you for another great episode! Palau was on my radar when I was a young diver but I never made it. Now I’m an older birder headed to Antarctica!
I've been on quite a few dive boats, and several liveaboards, but nothing like the Black Pearl. Being waited on hand and foot, with all your needs handled by the crew is great fun, but not how I've lived my life. I think as men, Riley, we're driven to make our own way, and there's something deeply satisfying about providing for yourself and your family. Maybe that's all it comes down to--providing and nurturing ourselves, our families, and our spirits. Great video! And the new housing is amazing!
I appreciate Elayna’s kind perspective. I relate to Riley's a bit more. When I was old enough to live somewhere other than where I grew up, I was all excited for the new adventure. I saw and learned about a slew of new things. One of the things I did not expect to learn was a new perspective on my home. What was maybe not so good about it, but more importantly why I liked it, what was really good and unique about it.
Outstanding. ThamkYou
Very amazing video. So much marine life
Loved the underwear shots, the mantas and turtles looked incredible! So glad to hear you guys are slowing down a bit and spending quality time in Palau 🇵🇼. Darwin and Lenny are growing up so fast, loved hearing their little voiceover pledge 🩵
It is good to mix up your life with "vacation" from time to time. That said you are living the dream and thank you for sharing it! The new camera is amazing. 🥂
Love the underwater shots. Would love to see more of that, esp. with your new camera. Thank you!
❤ GR8 VID ~ LOVED IT ❤ so cool to hear about the future new exciting changes coming with underwater camera gear and a power boat for extended dive excusions .. you keep killing it and why you're the top YouTube Sailing channel.
So beautiful! That new camera is amazing!
