Let's Meetup in Miami on June 17!
Hey everyone!
We are very excited to finally reach American soil! Coconut Grove Sailing Club in Miami have kindly offered to celebrate it by hosting an event at their club on Sunday, the 17th of June. We realised shortly after setting the date that this is also fathers day, nevertheless, we'd love to see you there, maybe you could bring your father to celebrate? We have 130 tickets for sale and going by our event in QLD earlier this year, we expect it will sell out fast.
We will give you 24 hours head start before we release the sale of tickets to the public. We would love to see as many of our patrons there to thank you in person for the amazing support. There will be a short presentation by us, opportunity for you to ask us absolutely anything and a few tunes to rock out the night. It should be a lot of fun! We can't wait!
Head to the website linked for more information: https://www.cgsc.org/sailing-la-vagabonde-seminar/
Includes appetisers and free drink on entry
Any questions, post them below and we'll do our best to assist.
Riley & Elayna xo

I really enjoyed meeting both of you. Thanks for sharing the your adventures. It is so refreshing to meet some authentic people.
What should we wear to this? Lol
Was excited to see this but it had sold out so fast. Not sure of your plans but if you are going to be cruising up the gulf side of Florida to Tampa I'd be happy to check on if our sailing club can accommodate another like this. Reach out if so.
New patrons from Houston TX and like Brandon Darr any time any place in TX we will be there for sure!!! Grew up in Florida but tickets are sold out or I would be there as well but since we are just getting started we will catch up some where FOR SURE oh yeah oh yeah 🙏🤗⛵️
Any chance for a bigger room and more tickets ?
Sold Out! Crap! Any chance you two will be having another meet up soon?
Belated grace, I wish ye all a merry time, and know there maybe another. Looking forward to the post ups.
Done! Yay! Can’t wait to meet you guys! My husband doesn’t know it yet but he just got his Father’s Day present lol! We love you guys and have been following you guys for about a year now! When we heard you were coming to Florida we got all giddy with excitement! Okay maybe me more than the hubs haha! See you soon!
Wish I could be there. Maybe Boat Show in Newport RI
I am so excited to see you both at the coconut grove sailing club. I’m flying from New York City. It didn’t make financial sense to fly down for the day on Sunday rent a hotel room and fly back Monday. So I’m taking Friday off I got a fancy room at the Mandarin Oriental and used my miles to upgrade my rental car, fly first class and bring my golf clubs. Thanks for the incentive I needed a little me time see ya Sunday June 15.
Drat! I'll miss you in Miami by one freakin' day! Gotta be back at work and the flights just don't align. Will you be at the dock maybe the Friday before? Or, make it to Boston, woo hoo!!
Got our tickets and so look forward to meeting you. I suppose Riley will be drinking for two?
We can't make Florida but hopefully you'll stop in Annapolis as you make your way up the coast!
Father's day. Do like the sound of that mate!
Room and Flight, Check! / ::: happy dance :::
I'll See y'all there! Excited to meet y'all! Rlley and Elayna I'm a local floridian who is getting his captains license soon, if y'all would like to go fishing I have a sportfish and can show you guys some good Floridian fishing!
Love to go but will be out on Beaver Island MI that week. The US has lots of coast. I hope you guys have another meet up this year. We will make one of them !!
I know everyone who comes will have a wonderful time seeing u2. God bless, congratulations on ur happy announcement & enjoy Miami! luv 'ya more! Happy Father's Day Riles!
Hi guys! My kids would love to come along with me! Are children welcome?
They are Omari 14, Lucien 10 and Sophia 8...quite civilised at this stage and keen little sailors.
Just bought two tickets! I’m surprising my husband for a early birthday present! We are so excited to meet the 3 of you;) Congrats!
It is a wild thought you two lovely folks coming to the States. Loved your Barbuda update and working schedule to see if i can go to Coconut Grove. I am also here to say the three of you should check out Ocracoke and sail the waters of Black Beard!
cant make this one but we caught up at London so that was good
I'm with charlie & wendy melbourne is like San Diego, nice and sunny.lol
The Newport Boat Show is this September 13-16 :-)
It's definitely on our list of things we would like to do. We just need to confirm our plans for the arrival of Lenny :)
Florida is cool but gotta come to Cali one day. San Diego's like Melbourne. Enjoy and cheers
Would love to come to California, just not sure when we can get there. I'm sure San Diego is far better than Melbourne.
Wish I could make this one. Unfortunately too short of notice for me. Hope to make another one.
Would love to join but unable. If you happen to be heading north afterwards, I'll be in St Augustine, FL for first two weeks of July. A great historic town to explore and a pretty awesome Independence Day fireworks show on the bayfront!
Wish I could make it to Miami! But still stuck in the "real world" for now. I'll repeat though - please make sure you come up the Chesapeake Bay on your way up the coast! I'd love to show you all the sights of my "home" waters!
Thanks for the offer Bob, we'll keep it in mind.
Just bought two tickets! Do we just use the paypal receipt as proof of purchase?
Yes, probably a good idea but they will also have your information at the entrance so if you bring photo ID, they can do it that way too.
Ah mates, I can’t make it. I’m in Nashville that week, me and the missus are moving there In Jan 2019. Gutted is not a big enough word!
Sorry to hear that Lee but never mind, we'll create another opportunity later this year
I think it would be great if we sell out in the next 24 hours BEFORE it goes public!!... Go Patreon army!
I have been looking forward to this for so long but oh nooooo!!!! I’m flying to Dominican Republic with my daughter who just graduated college and is about to start law school! Her graduation gift! My hubby is taking our son on a father-son spearfishing trip in the Bahamas that week too 😞. My hubby and I love you both so much and hope this won’t be the last get together! ❤️.
Never mind Kim, we'll see how this goes to see if it's worth organising another one. It definitely wont be the only chance to meet though. We hope to appear at one of the boat shows this year. Congratulations on your daughters college graduation! Tell your husband to feel free to send through any good GPS spearfishing hotspots :)
With all the great energy, inspiration, and laughs you guys share each week, how can I miss the opportunity to thank you in person? See ya in June!
Great stuff Kevin! Look forward to meeting you. We'll have to get some name tags so we can connect the Patreon name with the face :)
Ive been so eager to meet you guys since I stumbled across the video of Riley catching "Big Bertha" the Lobster and binge watched the previous videos and got hooked into your content since. But $450 round trip flights, Hotel expenses, and $75 entry is pretty steep for my books right this moment. One day, Ill finally get to meet you two (incoming 3rd, LOL!)! Thanks for all the great content over the past 3-4 years ago!!
Thanks for the message Brandon! We have about 80 patrons who live in Florida so hopefully this will suit them without costing too much but this wont be the only opportunity to meet up. We hope to organise more meet ups in the future. The London Boat Show worked really well and that was only around $10-$15 entry. Hopefully we can appear at some other boat shows in the U.S.A
Great site for the area.
For sure Bob. Someone from Coconut Grove took this for us to see what it looks like: <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/89oy07o3t7u7lcz/DJI_0021.MOV?dl=0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.dropbox.com/s/89oy07o3t7u7lcz/DJI_0021.MOV?dl=0</a> Thought it looked pretty cool
Please swing through Charleston, SC. Beautiful little city with a great harbor!
We have heard great things about Charleston. We know someone who lives there who used to work for Beneteau
Darn! I have to work that entire weekend and it will be impossible to make enough switches to travel down to Miami. I have emailed in the past about the Georgia coast and Savannah. The offer still stands if you need any insider info about what to see and do if you'll pass/stop that way.
Sorry to hear you can't make it David. Thanks for the offer. We'll keep it in mind.
Is 75 bucks a ticket a little steep? Is there dinner too?
Hey Kevin! Ticket includes dinner (appetisers) throughout the day and a complimentary drink on entry.
Ah Man, I just signed up for Truck Driving school through June, Been jobless since feb. Can't back out of that. Wish life was more flexible for me now. Have fun to the 130 ticket goers thanks for throwing the Party Riley and Elayna. Take pics and vids(you always do) cheers Steve
Bugger! Hopefully we can organise another one in August or September maybe in or around New York. Good luck with the truck driving school!
just got a B-day present early via my wife. I'll be there!!
Awesome Chuck! Look forward to meeting you both!
Wow! That was quick Greg!! We can certainly organise a good selfie. Look forward to meeting you! x
If ya need anything from Annapolis / DC, let me know... Permanent Visas!!
DONE!.... Any prize for being first?... A good selfie with SLV?
