BOAT LIFE: Pulled over by the water police. Ep. 195

Riley was pulled over by the state water police. Lol. Was it because of the suspicious mostache? Or the "I'm clearly a foreigner" straw hat? 

We also published a bonus video today on reactions to Hollywood Movies. You can check it out here: https://youtu.be/P1vuZTp4BdM

Let us know your thoughts, we love hearing from you.

Love Elay, Riles & Lenny

Welcome to the Sunshine State. Sailing in FLORIDA! ☀️⛵️ Ep.194

We sail down to Fort Lauderdale in Florida. Welcome to the sunshine state. I've never seen so many boats in my whole damn life! Or had to dodge as many. Lol. Enjoy the sail. Videos made with love, Elayna, Riley and Lenny.

Our First Sail As A Family - 7 daily vlogs (playlist)

Hey everyone!!

What an interesting adventure it's been sailing together as a family for the first time. It didn't start so well but it's gets better each day.. Because you're part of our crew, we've published a playlist which shows all seven of our daily vlogs scheduled for this week. We'll leave it for you to decide when you watch them.

Thanks so much for supporting our videos, made possible because of you!

BOAT LIFE: A Stressed out Captain

Poor Riles. He was a little stressed out at this point, wondering if and when we'll EVER set sail. He's struggling to deal with the fact that jobs now take twice as long with little Lenny around.

We're going to publish this one shortly so this is a quick preview / bonus video.

Lenny’s Loving Boat Life.. Ep.193

Join us onboard in South Carolina as we try to retrieve our anchor from the inside of a shipwreck. We take care of some boat jobs in preparation for our voyage south to some warmer weather. We're so happy that Lenny's loving boat life. Our first sail will be a test.. Coming soon 😄

THE ADVENTURE BEGINS! Ep.192

And so it begins. A new chapter. Sailing around the world with an infant. I wonder how this'll pan out. Join us as we move back into our home on the ocean. Of course we can't allow Lenny on board without a formal initiation 😀

Thanks to Noel, (one of our fellow patron crew members) who features at the end of this video, amazing job! Thanks to Will & Lynn (from Charleston Sailing School) for looking after our home whilst we were away and thanks to YOU for supporting this video!

Our First Road Trip With Lenny Ep. 191

You can find our with our full itinerary here. From next week we're back on La Vagabonde in South Carolina!!! Woohoo!

For anyone interested in knowing more about the birth story, I go into all the details on my channel: 2019-03-22 05:15:02 +0000 UTC View Post

WE HAD A BABY! Lenny's Debut Ep. 190

You've seen photos but now we can finally show Lenny's story on video!! It brings us great pleasure to officially introduce to you our boy Lennon Foster Whitelum. We feel like the luckiest people on this earth. Join us as we test the waters with a road trip, leading up to our departure back to the boat. We compressed our few months in Australia into two videos which means we had a chance to spend quality time with family and friends, not drowning you in endless videos of Lenny on land and it ...

We're going LIVE Thursday @6PM (NYC Time)

Riley's Solo Sail Series (exclusive playlist)

You may remember Riley doing a solo sail on old La Vagabonde on his way to New Zealand? Well he's at it again. This time around we've put all seven videos into a playlist so you can watch one each day or you can vaga-binge them all in one hit. We will be setting one public each day of next week.

What do you think of the different format? Let us know in the comments.

Thanks for your support

Patreon Week pt 2 (& Saying Goodbye)

After an amazing Patron week, I say goodbye to our Patrons and I leave Riley. I'm off, to the land down under to prepare for the birth of our boy. It was such an emotional week leading up to my departure. I've usually been fine leaving Riley for longer periods of time, but this time it felt different.. Riley has to look after La Vagabonde for an extra month and then he's going to sail it north to South Carolina where he's leaving it. Then he'll finally be able to fly to Australia to meet me. ...

Patreon Week in Nassau (Ep. 187)

A week in Nassau. Meet fellow patrons: Emily, David, Matt, Sarthak, Brittney, Billy, Chaz, Scott and Craig as we go for a sail to visit some of the nearby small islands. It was a great day of snorkelling, free diving, spearfishing and enjoying drinks and fresh seafood onboard.

Thanks for being great guests guys! Hope you enjoyed your time on board. Thank you to all our patrons who are supporting these videos. You're the best!

Sending love and good vibes from La Vagabonde

Featuring YOU in an episode

We had such a good time watching through and editing the videos that you sent in for our ‘Why We Love the Ocean’ video and we would love to find a way to include you more regularly. We’ve been brainstorming how we can make that happen and today, we had an idea...... If you would like to be in one of our episodes, please let us know here in the comments below.

Loggerhead Turtle Eats my Lobster! RARE ENCOUNTER. Ep.186

We'd set off with the spearguns to find dinner. After filleting the fish and preparing the lobster we'd caught, I noticed a dark shadow off the back of the boat. I jumped in the water to find a GIANT Loggerhead turtle munching on the lobster head. He was so chill, not concerned about me in the slightest. This is honestly the wildest encounter I've ever had underwater. Superlatives escape me. In the words of Ace Ventura, "holy testicle Tuesday".

Great to catch up with you all this week. ...

Living Off the Land in The Bahamas with my Pregnant Girlfriend. Ep. 185

We set sail to some deserted islands of the Berries. It's been a goal of ours (well mostly Rileys) to live off the land for as long as we can. It'd be nice if we could grow veggies onboard, but I'll have to stick to herbs for now. Veggie gardens and blue water ocean vessels apparently don't go well together ☹️.  

***THANKS FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT DEAR PATRONS. This extra content is made possible by you. Don't forget to join us tonight at 6pm for the live broadcast we'll be ...

Dinner with A Dozen Stingrays Ep. 184

You may have noticed we're uploading a little more regularly lately. We could sense the anticipation of meeting Lenny so we've been editing like madmen/women to catch up to the special moment. We've even started teaching Lenny how to choose the music..... he just screams if he doesn't like it which seems to be more regular than we had hoped......Don't worry, we wont charge for these Wednesday or Friday videos this month but you'll have a whole lot more of SLV to watch.

We sailed all the...

We Said Goodbye to Old Friends and Review the Map! Ep.183

Where shall we go? That seems to always be the question onboard lately. When you can go anywhere you want it can be kinda hard to decide so we usually just don't decide and see where the wind blows us.. 

We have some good news for those who can't get enough of SLV. We've noticed the growing number of people desperate to see Lenny in a video so free up some more viewing time over the next 3-4 weeks........ we're going some triple headers!!

Hope you don't get sick of us :)

Are you attending the Miami Boat Show?

I'll be there but Elayna and Lenny may not be able to make it. We'd normally give more notice but it's been a bit of a last minute decision. Chose to go to meet up with a friend so it's a very unofficial appearance. More information to come....

Let me know if you will be there. 

Cheers,
Riley

Living On A Peaceful Private Jetty! Amazing! [Ep.182]

Having our own private Jetty was a very cool treat! Join us in the glorious Abaco Islands in the Bahamas as we nail some jobs, get creative in the art room and spend the rest of our time underwater 💦💙

Thanks so much for your support! Enjoy!

❤️Elay, Riles & Lenny

P.S Stay tuned for later in the month, we'll go live and update you directly from La Vagabonde.

Why We Love The Ocean starring YOU!

Hey everyone!!

Back in November last year we asked for you to send us a short video of why you love the ocean and the response was amazing! We watched every video that was sent and absolutely loved hearing from you and seeing where you're from. I did my best to include every video that we received but there were a few that missed out due to some issues with my laptop. (so sorry if you missed out) Hopefully we'll do this again soon and for those who missed out, I'll do my best to include...
