A Multiple Trip Down Memory Lane (Ep. 302)
Join us for quick trip to Galleon Beach. We catch up with Jack (Riley's cousin) and Nikki who you will remember from our 2019 Atlantic crossing.
Riley heads off for a 2 day trip to Redonda with his spearfishing buddy George which you may remember was where we filmed episode 12 all the way back in 2015. How times have changed since then.. Except for Riley's forgetfulness on pressing the record button, that still remains the same - haha!
Enjoy!
Love Elay, Riles & Lenny

Finn fine name. However calling Lenny & Liham (Liam) on deck kind of rolls of the tounge doesn’t it? 🙂
Finn is a fantastic name! My vote for baby #2 :)
Love Finn for baby boy #2
I vote for Finn.....Lenny and Finn- sounds like 2 Aussie hotties
Marlon :) Marlo or Mars for short
Did I see there is a live coming? On elays insta? You must be 34-35 weeks now ❤ final weeks now hope you are all settled and ready to meet the newest member of your crew. Such a blessing
Solomon!! 100%!! It fits your family so so well.
Phinneas....Phin
I love Finn
The Antigua Rodent Racing Associations decision to give up on the "Rat Race" and usher in a more agreeable future should be a lesson to us all ...
You know what Riles the footage from the diving trip reminded me of the old days of your channel. I've found you guys from episode 40 or so and watched your cinematography grow. I do love the old videos too, they are amazing in a different way. I sometimes rewatch old ones too. Anyway the commentary to the not getting the shot was worth not getting the shot. So funny! I know how contrasting it can be being in a beautiful paradise and not feeling settled, it's ok to feel like that. life can be tricky like that. I hope you guys will find a suitable place to give birth soon and start properly nesting. Big love from us on a narrowboat on cold English canals xx
If we're voting, mine is for Finn again. See what I did there? Riles, I was shooting video at an air show once and the bright sunlight worked against me. I got lots of long footage of the inside of my pocket, with a few seconds of airplanes flying over before I stopped the video thinking I was starting it. Once they passed, I got another long video of the inside of my pocket as I turned it on, thinking I was turning it off.
I like Solomon!
Really liking "FINN"
Still loving the name Darwin!
Finn for me. Love ya guys, but what's up with the thumbnail pic?
Finn. Riley may not have gotten the "fish shot" but he more than made up for that w the "aggressive shark" sequence.
Finn or Marlon :D
Darwin or Marlon! Finn is cute but to common 🌿
Solomon!
We have a little boy named Solomon. It shortens nicely to Solly. :)
Marlon! Marley would be adorable
To be true blue Aussie - you’ve got to be able to shorten the name with an ‘o’ ... so Finno isn’t going to work... and Darwin to ‘wino doesn’t sound right :) Marlo sounds good :)
Finn is absolutely gorgeous! Awesome episode guys. Also, I am a fellow Aussie and want to let you know that anything is possible! I know of quite a few people returning home from overseas and still are. If it is something that you really want, there is way! Anyway, sending my best to you all in these uncertain times x
Finn, wish i would have thought of it.
also Lenny and Finn! great duo
the mouse racing got me good...
Darwin!
Finn for me. Loved the episode. Quite the mellow vibe. Wishing you all the best with all the endeavors.. boat, baby, etc
Darwin - nie. : )
Fantastic episode! And really great to see Nikki again! (Your Atlantic crossing with Greta was the first time I ever heard about you and I've been a Patron ever since, so very nice and nostalgic.) I hope that she and Jack and George are in the next episodes as well. As ever, these videos are the highlights of my week. Cheers and One Love!
Finn!
I like Marlon! Lennie and Marley or Lennon and Marlon!!
Lenny & Finn 💙💚
Okay, that is super cute!
My vote is for Finn, such a great name.
I’m still rooting for Darwin! Thanks for another great adventure. I love seeing your hikes since my hikes are basically the same hike day after day after day. It was nice to see some familiar faces from past episodes. Wishing you all the best of luck with your upcoming adventures.
Elayna, is that the Scuba Stalker mask? I was thinking about purchasing a new mask. How do you like that one?
Finn. Love this name. Mythical Irish warrior. Bright and fair
Also voting for Darwin!
I am so excited to be a part of this family! Thank you for the content you make! ❤️
Amazed how many boats are seeing out COVID in Antigua! When are the details of the new boat coming out, sounds like you are almost there?
Love this! Can you tell me what program/filter/plugin you use for your cartoons? Those are adorable and I do videos for my real estate business and would love to use some cartoons in my promo videos :)
Hi Karen, I hope it's okay that I answer on their behalf! I animate everything myself along with my assistant. My process involves illustrating everything in concepts on my I pad and then myself and my assistant animate the scenes in Adobe Animate and then assemble the animations in Adobe After Effects where I export it out and send to Elayna and Riley. If you download the Adobe creative suite (which includes Animate and After Effects) you can then use tutorials online to figure out how to make little animations to include in your real estate videos :) Cheers!
Darwin!!
Solomon 👍 Finn also good
FInn for sure
Sol
Better call...
Great to watch ep. 12 again! What a journey you've had.
Finn!!!
Solomon
Formal... Finnegan (Finne) As a little boy or ( Finn) later
Solomon :)
Solomon 100% <3
Hey! Would y’all be interested in linking George’s charter business? Some islands are opening up restrictions a little more for those with vaccines. I know we are planning a trip now that we have vaccines and I wonder if a lot of people who follow you are in the same boat. Maybe you could slyly link without mentioning it if inundation was a concern? Wishing George luck with recovering his business and I’m excited to see what’s next for y’all! Thanks!
My vote -- Finn. But, it's your vote that counts.
Riley. We boated in MD for a few years. The ol crab pot line caught in the prop was very common. Hope no dame came of it. We like Finn. But there are some good comments above (being a common name). I still like it though. Stay safe and keep the great content coming!
Lenny and Fin.
Finn for the win 💜
Darwin. 100%, no other choice. Surely
I can‘t decide between Marlon and Finn, they are both so cute 🥺
Still a Finn fan! Thanks as always for the early access guys!
Definitely voting Darwin!! Love it 😍
Voting Fin! Imagine - Lenny & Finny 🥰
My votes on Darwin! Great video :)
My vote for Marlon 👋🙂
Marlon !!! Such a cute name !
Finn :) so much seaworthiness in this name. Also for the new boat...killing me with anxiety. Being +1 space will be a factor. Being sea sick seems to be kreeping up a lot on the La Vaga, so... Could be a monohul. Constant hints on sustainability is interesting if it will result in some hybrid / electric combo. Have an idea of a hybrid electric monohul 64+ so curious to see the unveiling. Could start up a bet between patreons :) P.S Riley - re: your crypto tweet. Watch out with these moves. A lot of sleepless nights ahead of you with baby no.2 coming in. Don't put one more thing on your stress list
Finn is verg nice but soooo common. Voting for solomon
Hi guys. It’s definitely Finn for me. Surely avoid names that have religious connotations. Finn every time. Can’t wait for a real catch up vid guys. Do you think you will ever be able to create ‘real time’ footage. Even perhaps shorter but more up to date with a monthly round up. Love you guys but competition is increasing and you need to keep ahead of the game, especially when you’re in dry dock.. Hopefully we will get regular and informative, in depth footage of the build. Keep em coming guys. Nick & Rachel UK x
Darwin. 100%, no other choice. Surely. Also, far out guys this footage + editing is UNREAL what the hell. Next level.
Finn
Finn!!!
I like the name Darwin and my boyfriend Oscar like the name Marlon! Such a nice video, so nice to see Nikki again and drifting away in your tropical amazing videos! Thank you!
Solomon (all the kids and puppies are named Finn right now)
Solomon 😍😍
Loved this episode. YAYY Nikki, lovely surprise seeing her. When you were crossing the Atlantic with her, I was at a women in business event in the UK, and the key note speaker told us all about her daughter, drawing similarities between her challenges on the sea with things we could relate to, and it turned out to be Nikki! I was bouncing on my seat, thinking ... Im watching her cross now!!! Darwin still the winner for me, name and nickname strong. Sully is also a lovely nickname for Solomon too. Whatever you decide it'll be perfect. Can't wait to see your new boat plans unfold. -|--} p.s keep sharing Lenny learning sailing words/grabbing ropes please, it's the best :)
Finn & Marlon are fantastic names! I think the names and potential nicknames for both would go well with Lenny. Thanks for sharing! <3
Those nachos hurt my soul.
Finn for the win, AKA Finny :)
Another beautiful video. Voting for Solomon or Finn now. 😘
Finn hands down, oceanic yet still socially acceptable in modern times. It's the "cool" name.
Im partial to the name Squiggman. It has potential! Lenny & Squiggy for the win!
That would be epic! #laverneandshirley HA,HA,HA!
Ok awesome Vid as usual...... my vote is for Finn or Darwin 👍👍
Such a sweet video. Memories to cherish. Loved all the crying babies at the end, how many families are boat gypsy's? And Finn for the win...Lennton and Fennton have a ring.
You have likely found a place to settle for baby or will be there soon. I so hope you where able to get home to Australia. Looking forward to the changes and new adventures but will miss la Vega as well....
So essentially you are just killing time waiting for back home to open it's doors? It won't be long. I'm very curious to learn the details of this new boat you keep talking about. Monohull or Catamaran? I understand the need for a bigger boat with the new guy coming.
Still like Darwin, but Solomon has more potential for nicknames, I think. Nice to see Nikki again and what's Jack doing nowadays? Great video!!
I think Lenny and Winny would be so cute. My vote's for Darwin 💙
Yay! Home sick today and this just made all the funk slip away. Thank you two beautiful souls, I’m still working on selling the house and getting that damn sail boat, I would have never been able to work towards this dream if it wasn’t for you guys. Sending you so much love
Can’t wait to watch tonight. Cheers and safe sailing 👍👍
Finn is legend!!! Great to see Nikki again and Captain Jack!!
Lenny steering the dinghy is beyond adorable!
Yes Nikki!
Yaaaay! We love new videos 🔥🔥
