Instagram Vs. Reality!!

Great impression of that Scottish viral video, I died 😂 😂 😂

Agree on some limits, but showing the bad stuff is also of great value.

You guys are just so much fun. I remember bathing with the barracudas that live under the boat (like the monster under the bed?).

No idea why YouTube didn’t lead me to y’all sooner, but I’ve binged watched about 100 episodes in 2 weeks and had to join the patreon!! Keep doing what y’all are doing, I love it! ⛵️🌊

What are you guys up to currently?

Funny premise. Loved it. 😊⛵

When will you have another live? So excite about the Rapido AND would love to know a little bit about your trip of the East Coast of the US a bit closer to real time. :D

You guys, you’ve got me laughing so hard with the hilarity of trying to film “reality” that the tears are running down my face.

How do you tie that sarong? Help going to Hawaii and need that skill

Amazing! Such a lovely family! <3

new here:) found you guys on youtube and fell in love with your videos and your family❤️ always so fun to see the new things:) thank you guys for doing these videos!

I’ve you guys so much! Thanks for keeping it real. Love watching your adventures and your family growing up. How exciting that your new boat is coming along!!! I know Riley is more than excited! Thanks for sharing! 💗💗💗

you guys are zeee best! Looking forward to see the Trimarannnnn and whats to come next Goodbye Amy! Greeting from Greece, Daphne

I think I can speak for all of us in that we need, no demand, a Riley yoga dinghy video. ❤️

So much fun to watch! Reality is rarely shown with any accuracy- even in the news and the notion of “reality tv” is quite a joke. We can’t show everything of course but it is good to have a balance. So thank you guys for doing a good job of this. There is also the need to provide “click bait” which sadly, I feel is mostly focused on women’s bodies/boobs. And we have been fed a constant diet of life is good or at least best for the young, attractive and sexy/fit. So glad you guys have fun with all of this and address all sorts of things!

That is by far the funniest episode I have ever seen, thank you for all the heart-felt laughs I needed that.

you had me laughing so hard. great start

Hey I've always wondered, are squals a good thing in terms of washing the salt off the boat or a bad thing?

Oh come on, we know it's all puppy breath and sunshine out there on the ocean, no? hahah. Laughed out loud at the slap of shaving cream across Riley's mug. I'm ok seeing Elayna editing "on the toilet" just not "using the toilet", big difference. Going to miss Emmi, she is such a sweet lady.

Your sense of humor and silliness is one of the things that sets your channel apart!

You guys are the best!!! Couldn't help laughing at Darwin's banana fail and Lenny falling out of bed. 😂💛💛

loved it so much, thank you guys <3

very informative episode, although I do find it sad that Riley feels the need to keep the AIS off, to keep his family safe. the side-effects of fame.

So good!!!! How’s the book coming along Elayna!??

LOL you guys are the actual best.

All looks right, carry on. Nothing to see here.

You are so talented and it’s been great watching the changes over the years.

I have a serious problem. Why do I find it so funny when people fall? Sorry Lenny for laughing at you falling out of bed. Great episode as always.

Great, great, great episode. A perfect balance of no nonsense and guffaws, laughs and giggles with a couple of 'oh so sweets' peppered in. Perfect recipe for us :-) Always look forward to your sharing. I think we are very lucky to have found you years ago !

Agreed … the sunscreen slap made me laugh out loud … wish we’d seen Riley falling in the water !! So excited about the trimaran … can’t wait to see you aboard and settling into your new home. Thanks for all the effort you both make to bring us along on your adventures. I’m thinking I wouldn’t mind a holiday on your catamaran when your brother starts up 👍🤔

The sunscreen slap made me cackle 😂

LOVED the out takes at the end - people at work are wondering what has me laughing so hard 😉 (I’m in the break room with head phones on). Great job guys keep it up!

That was awesome!!!

Loved that last shot - perfect ending!

I think you definitely have a balance! You don’t show the Bad and the Ugly, but you do make an effort to mention some of it. You mention it and then apply a positive outlook. The pattern has helped me in my job. I was given a tough assignment. I just met with my boss and said “I am really struggling with this, but I know I am learning a lot and I will appreciate this time later. But the process might be a mess. Bare with me.” Also, was not expecting Riley to start modeling in the intro 😂

One of your best videos ever, also lol funny at the end!

That was a great one!

This is one of your best episodes ever . . . I've been following you for 7 years . . . and am amazed at how well you have coped with life at sea for what has already been a very long journey. . . I know (a little bit) how hard sailing can be . . . your worldwide success is well deserved . . . keep sailing, keep safe!

I think the best part of episodes like these are that they bring your viewers closer (if only slightly) to you as real people. It makes things seem so much more genuine, but I can't help thinking how awkward it's going to be if we ever ran into each other, because many of us will feel as though we've long been fast friends, and you'll be perplexed as ever (though, I'm sure you're probably used to it at this point). Stay safe, make good decisions, and sail on! :)

Cheers everybody has bad days no need to share them.

Just wanted to leave a quick note to say that I have spent the last 15+ years of my life aching to sail, but life being a little bit in the way. I have lived vicariously through your videos and have seen every single one from the very beginning at least twice 😆. I dream of retiring early and sailing down to warmer waters and definitely dream of making an Atlantic crossing at some point. I will turn 35 this year and I live in the freshwater sailing capital of the world and it has felt like such a shame that I haven’t been able to participate. Despite all of your “sailing realities” that you are so good at sharing, I have absolutely been inspired by your videos and this past weekend stepped foot on a sailboat for the FIRST TIME EVER, in an adult learn to sail program out of the local yacht club. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the inspiration to take this on. Time to finally start making my dream a reality. SO much love to you guys for your encouragement of younger (do I still qualify!?) people to get into cruising. Hope to run into you on the water one day to thank you in person. ❤️❤️❤️

Lov the opening 😂 now off to bed and watch rest after work tomorrow night (I.Vs.R 😂) Apparently Lenny falling off bed is a bit of a pissa 😂😂😂😳

thanks for showing us the good and the sorta bad...love your authenticity and willingness to bring us along on the journey.

As someone who has recently become a Patreon and binged watched nearly all your videos, you guys do a decent job of trying to show the balance between the highs and the lows. And I watch a lot of YouTube creators, and you all at least once have addressed the Instagram vs Reality dilema. You do a brilliant job of being realistic whilst still making entertaining content to watch. The idea of sailing is very romantic and dreamy, but I've seen enough of your lows/tough moments to know that it's A LOT of hard work and I respect you all for doing it so well, and being so conscious of how you are portraying your lives. 😊

That intro 😂

funny not funny ............poor Lenny falling out of bed...made my day... poor boy!

I think you guys do pretty well at keeping things real, obviously like the rest of us you're going to have your bad days, things do go wrong and it makes sense not to film that stuff, some things are just private. We all post the best parts to a point.

Ayo is Lenny alright, bro fell off the bed pretty hard in the end 😂😂😂😂😂
