Escape Plans Denied [🎥66🇫🇯]
As Cyclone season approaches, we start working on our escape plans. We knew it was a risk to leave the safety of New Zealand, and now we pay the price... We are posting live updates on our social channels: https://www.the-sailing-family.com/ https://www.i...![Can you race a cruising catamaran (and win!)?

Can you race a cruising catamaran (and win!)? [🎥65🇫🇯]
We enter Archer into the Musket Cove Regatta, which was the ONLY large scale, International sailing regatta of 2020. We felt so lucky to partake and it was a celebration of sailing, Fiji and life in general! If you ever make it to Fiji, stay in Musket Cove...![Being a kid again in Fiji: racing, river-sliding & scuba diving! [🎥64🇫🇯]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/axpeXW-ALTI/maxresdefault.webp)
Being a kid again in Fiji: racing, river-sliding & scuba diving! [🎥64🇫🇯]
How could you not be as excited as a kid in Fiji? In this episode we race Archer against our friends Pu (and blow a mainsail halyard in the process!). We paddle around in Fiji's most beautiful anchorage. We zoom down the Taveuni River-Slides and Dive near ...![Everything you’ve ever wanted to know. The Q&A Episode!

Everything you’ve ever wanted to know. The Q&A Episode! [🎥63🇦🇺]
We asked if you had any questions and we got 75 responses! And since we have guests visiting us this week, we thought we would edit a quick video instead. So here are all the answers to your wonderful questions - posted today, July 7th, 2021! 0:00 - INTRO...![Fiji’s Sinking Village [🎥62🇫🇯]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/mDZ0DzIGmiQ/maxresdefault.webp)
Fiji’s Sinking Village [🎥62🇫🇯]
Ogea didn't cause this crisis, but they're feeling it. In this episode we talk to the village leaders about their efforts to raise the earth by hand and the impact that rising sea levels will continue to have on their village. It's not our usual type of tr...![“Stay Long’a in Fulaga” – Remote Fiji [🎥61🇫🇯]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/qgRxyVl6yDM/maxresdefault.webp)
“Stay Long’a in Fulaga” – Remote Fiji [🎥61🇫🇯]
This is the dream: You're sailing around the world and visit a stunningly beautiful island where you are welcomed by the village Chief. You become friends with the locals and are no longer a tourist, and you are allowed to see what life is really like in a...![We are the only tourists in Fiji.

We are the only tourists in Fiji. [🎥60🇫🇯]
We're the ONLY ones. A collection of perhaps 20 boats and, thankfully, 6 with kids. In this episode we gather at the famous Blue Lagoon (the G-Rated version!) and break out all the toys. We surf, kite, sail, foil, hike and catch a show. It's not clear thou...![Castaways, Manta Rays, Birthdays & Mohawks?! [🎥59🇫🇯]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/YAFZQYGB46c/maxresdefault.webp)
Castaways, Manta Rays, Birthdays & Mohawks?! [🎥59🇫🇯]
Imagine watching the movie "Castaway" for the first time anchored comfortably off the beach where it was filmed. How cool would that be?! We finally leave Musket Cove and start exploring the rest of Fiji with our buddy-boat, Pu'Uhonua. Ben gives the kids ...![Welcome to Fiji (where is everybody?)

Welcome to Fiji (where is everybody?) [🎥58🇫🇯]
We finish our quarantine and enter Fiji, but are surprised at what we find. As one of just a few tourists in the island group, we find the resorts are closed, the surf breaks are empty and the locals inquisitive. It is as if we are visiting Fiji before the...![Making a “Break” for it! 1,300nm passage to Fiji. [🎥57🇳🇿]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/HMTuKLR0q3I/maxresdefault.webp)
Making a “Break” for it! 1,300nm passage to Fiji. [🎥57🇳🇿]
More things break on our trip from NZ to Fiji. Why does this keep happening to us!? And why does it happen so often at night!? We finally get approval to travel to Fiji and we leave New Zealand for warmer waters. Play a little Pirate Tag at sea, catch so...![Trapped In NZ & Making the Best of It!

Trapped In NZ & Making the Best of It! [🎥56🇳🇿]
NZ is Covid Free, but we're trapped. We can't go anywhere else, and winter has arrived. Some of our friends throw in the towel, and we hunker down for winter and a sliver of hope that Fiji or Australia might open. But will they? This is a monster episode!...![Curse of the Red Ferrari & Life Under Lockdown. [🎥55🇳🇿]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/6mw9Py-bdqU/maxresdefault.webp)
Curse of the Red Ferrari & Life Under Lockdown. [🎥55🇳🇿]
We get pulled over AGAIN as we make our way into our Marina for lockdown. We're pretty sure having a red boat didn't help us any. And we had quite a far fetched (but true) story to tell. Oh, the DRAMA... This video was shot last year and covers the Level-...![How it all went down. The Coronavirus Episode. [🎥54🇳🇿]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/nzACZbioszA/maxresdefault.webp)
How it all went down. The Coronavirus Episode. [🎥54🇳🇿]
Just days before one of the harshest lock downs in the world, we sail to Great Barrier Island off New Zealand's east coast. It was a beautiful place to be locked down, but we didn't know about the drama it would create as A LOT of boaters from Auckland dec...![Is This New Zealand’s Best Kept Secret?!

Is This New Zealand’s Best Kept Secret?! [🎥52🇳🇿]
We land in paradise after an epic 15 day ocean passage. All we want is Ice-Cream, wild Kiwis, a haircut, hiking with sheep, a good restaurant, boat repair facilities, friends, history, culture, summer weather, epic sunsets and cool nights. Sound too good t...![Dodging Cyclones. Super Rough. Can We Get There Already!? (Part 3 of 3!) [🎥51🇹🇴]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/mmPWcT9sEPw/maxresdefault.webp)
