Not lecturing, but one misstep and Willa could fall in. Never wait for that to happen before deciding on a life jacket for her. We all wear seat belts although we rarely if ever get into a serious accident! She's the most precious thing you have on board!

If she can climb out of the cockpit then it's time for toddler swimming lessons! toddler swimming lessons are mostly about drowning prevention, most kids in Australia start learning to swim from 6-12 mths.

Willa is growing so fast! My wife in her younger years would teach babies how to swim/ float. Might be something to look into

Ben has lost all his winter weight and looking good my man.

To funny seeing her sitting with rain on her and still eating that’s a true sailor!

What a gorgeous storm! I would be terrified to have a climbing baby on a boat. Her life jacket would be permanently melted to her body 😂 thanks for taking us with you. You’re true adventurers!

You guys are seriously the one channel I look forward to each week. Wish I could support on patreon but can't right now, thanks covid. Hope you guys are well.

Just let her wear a vest when she is outside until she can swim. She’ll get used to it. Ours fell overboard once in a while. Very relaxing to know they don’t sink. No nets on the railing and getting stuck in it when you don’t want it or a kid slipping under it just there were your lines run etc.

Guys you got to put that life jacket on Sweet pea especially in the dingy

Cool video there, but I would suggest a life jacket for the little one :-)

Your baby needs a harness and life jacket in one with sheet on your baby from the salon to some part of the cockpit so the does not fall over board at any time . Just like the thing you would do in your home with a new baby with you but you are catamaran plus netting around the a good start and great video guys

Love the videos guys. So crazy to see those streets so empty. My unsolicited advice from one parent to another: do not underestimate a toddlers ability to find danger. I hope W can't fit through the windows on the V berth for example, or hopefully you can toddler proof them latches. And yeah sorry to join the chorus but please please please, pfd's on the dinghy. One unlucky moment is all it takes.

Awwww she's growing so fast little cutie.

Wow. Those clouds looked insane. Willa is getting so big. What a doll she is, and yes, you are so screwed when she starts walking🥴😂 I didn’t even think about what she’ll be throwing overboard. Have fun with THAT😜 Stay safe guys ❤️❤️❤️

10:34 a little touch of home... I am surprised that you leave the paddle boards tied to the stanchions, especially during high winds. They will put so much stress with the extra windage. You will want to keep an eye on the bases for cracking which of course will lead to leaks. Better to store in the back of the cockpit or tie up to the underside of the hardtop if there is room?

I know you all are safety conscience. So I was disappointed to see Willa without her life jacket on the dingy ride back to the boat. 😲 she too precious to loose!!!

You scare me having Willa in the dinghy without a life jacket. When my kids were little we had a harness to be able to walk them on. (Yeah got funny looks, told it was cruel) but when they have that independent streak and want to walk, they are still under your control. Maybe look for something like that to tether her in the cockpit, just like u do to yourself in rough seas

I’m shocked~Willa isn’t wearing a life jacket in the dingy! Certainly, there are times at ‘home’ she should as well. Just vision the most cruelest unthinkable event really did happen. ☹️

Definitely time for safety netting! So glad to see you guys out and cruising again ☺️

Baby has gained a level. New skill unlocked: Climbing!

While at anchor, especially at night or a storm, a GPS can warn you if you drag anchor and move away. Also have motor idling and anchor ready to weigh if needed.

The baby soooooo cute! GOD bless her

Been here in Thailand for 40 plus years if you think these are the monsoon rains nah they're mango rains, wait for June then you'll see real monsoon rains.

I went to Thailand for a month in 2004. I left at Christmas and got home to Australia to see a massive Tsunami wipe it off the map. Fond memories of walking street, sniper alley, and all the other places I was drunk and stumbling around.

Life jacket on dinghy please. So hard to find good kiddy lifejackets though

I know you are loving the speed and stability of the dingy!! Glad there was no more to that storm!!! Thanks Guys!! OMG Willa is amazing.

Thrilled I got this before calling it a night. You three are fab! Keep up the great work and look forward to next week.

a climber aboard...hummm..me thinks ya best get the netting up soon! Great video guys. Did a year in '85...another year in '10...both on the east side of the Gulf of Thailand. The family loved the place. I have sooooo many friends from Hat Yai to Rayong and a few up north Changmai. The month of April..you will love...just not on the boat...maybe not on land either... it is kind of wet...Songkran is upon ya! But with everything shuttered... will be a sad Songkran..

Willa is so adorable! Thank you for the video!

I think a child raised this way might be the only way to raise a child without a phone growing out of their hand. I have to imagine a start to life like this could only produce a wonder young lady. Congrats on your bravorism.....yes its a word

Great video. Thanks. We had a Spectra WM on one boat and one similar to yours on another. They are all great. But with downpours like that you shouldn’t need a watermaker. We could fill our 220 gal tanks in on downpour. And have plenty left for laundry and baths. When we got to dry climates like the Sea of Cortez the water maker was invaluable. Good stuff. Oh my on the adorable Willa. I met a couple that had just crossed the Atlantic from S Africa. They had a baby that in mid- Atlantic sailing at 6 kts, the baby learned how to roll over and rolled right into the ocean!! The Dad kicked off the vane gear steering and said come and get us. Instantly dove over and saved baby!!! Wow!! Mom picked them both up. Keep up your skills. Again Wow. Netting? You bet.

Such a cute baby girl!! Wonderful video guys and it’s so sad what covid has done to our world.

Welcome to Thailand 😀 Love your videos ! I hear a few sailors say, lashing boards to life line stanchions is causing leaks in the deck mounts. Too much constant wind pressure ! Yikes Thanks for sharing. Cheers, sail on 😀

Just imagine the childhood their kids are going to have. If they grow up on that boat, that's going to be so unique, imagine the memories they'll have

This was literally my today. 3pm, monsoon. 0-45kts winds blowing the whole anchorage towards the beach.

Thankyou for this great video. Im all smiles now! Im sending it to my wife so she can smile too!

Not to get overly paranoid, but as a parent here as well, can’t help it. Any way she can open those window latches in her room and try to crawl out?

Love all your videos. Beautiful scenery and always sharing lots of interesting sites sounds of the places you visit. Good mix of sailing, boat life and local history and cultures. I noted that Willa wasn’t wearing a pfd (at least not that I could see) during the dinghy ride back to Nahoa. Not being critical, I’ve boated for over 65 years, but would it not be a good idea to have one on her! Oh, now that she’s more mobile etc, what about the portlights in her cabin? Could she open one and eight get stuck or climb out? I was a little kid on our boat and I know I was always up to mischief when I wasn’t being supervised!

u might want to think about"swimming lessons" for u know who, she small but fast. cheers Kole/canada

Thank you for sharing your journey. I have no interest in sailing but you guys make it look fun. Y’all are the best.

My Sunday was a bit off. So glad to see you !

Awesome channel, reminds me of my childhood in Mallorca. We were 11 brothers and sisters on a 100ft yacht with our parents and spent months navigating the mediterranean sea, those were the days! We never had a problem we any of us falling overboard but we certainly do have more than one adventure to tell........ I'm subscribing and wish you all the very best in your journey, exciting!

That is one sweet office Ben. 👍🏼. Everything at your fingertips! 👌🏻

Truly the happiest child and the happiest parents 😌 Greetings from Indonesia❤

Hardly recognize these two as the same two who were whingeing their way through BC last year. Amazing what a bit of 🌞sun🌞 will do! 😉

The kid is getting cuter by the day 😄. Great to have a beer and live vicariously through you guys until We get out on our boat. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe!

I like to see the storms you guys get there to see how bad they can be. Great video

Babies on boats are so tricky! Do you have a puddle jumper for Willa? They're the best baby life jackets. My babies were floating independently by 16-18 months. We'd put my little brother in a harness and tether, but I wonder how one of those retractable dog leashes would work in lieu of a traditional tether that might get tangled 😆🤔

You know it’s incredible to see how much their lives have changed over the past few years. I’ve been watching ever episode for the past few years following their pregnancy and so much more and it’s just amazing to see how far they’ve come. Ngl, kinda weird seeing a new soul on board hitching a ride when before it was only 2. Lol 😂

I was thinking you never post! I wait ever Sunday morning for this you guys made at me? LOL

Awesome videos! Brings back memories of sailing the North Atlantic in 2000

Surreal, it is thunder and lightening outside. We have a Special Weather Statement. Glad I am not rocking and rolling as you are. Be well, 😊🇨🇦

Baby is exploring, so very cute. Maybe get her used to a life jacket. My friend from USA moved to Pattaya 7 years ago. Very inexpensive to live, night life was amazing until covid hit. Thailand has so many beautiful sites to visit. Shrines in the mountains, hot springs very nice people. The storm you had was un real. I liked the way you cleared the decks. Videos are great. I look forward to each new one you release.

LOl yup, time to find a new way to secure the hatches. just be a little bit before she figures out how to open those windows.

Willas hand looks so sore xx i hope she has healed well and fast, as a mother of two i totally get these things happen xxx ur great parents

I remember I've seen the same road three weeks ago in a SV Delos video, what a difference.

Lightning!! I know you were securing topside but get inside faster! 👍⛵️🏝

I always get in such a GOOD mood watching your videos ... LIKE your humor ... maybe it's the special irony that we sailors and it professionels have ❤️

I'm surprised you don't have a life jacket on that baby.

you live a good life tat comes. with hard weather but you seem to know what your doing so I'm proud of you

you guys are great parents, esp giving on board

1:02 Love how the motor bike is in tune with the background music haha

You think that you had already raised like five kids or something you're like an old Pro already at it you make wonderful parents and you make a wonderful mother and wow are y'all awesome taking her with you and she's going to love every second of it you couldn't ask for more safer and more loving parents. Y'all are awesome thank you for the videos we love love love love the videos and we love your baby and please don't stop making content any content is good LOL we actually love seeing the updates from you God bless from my family to yours and thank you so much for all the videos y'all are awesome even if you don't know what you're all are awesome

Such a cute little family!!

phuket hammered by tsunami in '04 and hammered again in '20/21 by covid. anyays....thnx for another dandy show.

Looking back year ago, Willa was just in your name tummy. How she has grown up so fast, oh my she was an adorable little kid. Keep safe guys!

As we struggle to get north of 5 degrees on the BC coast I wish I was in the tropics - love your natural videos

Imagine waking up ever morning to a different view out of your bedroom window. That is willas whole life so far. I'm jealous

Hi guys, thanks for the video! Hi Ben, consider starting your engines in a squall just to take some strain off the anchor. It has worked for me. As for Willa, She's probably super buoyant and some times with little kids wearing life jackets, they float head down so..Hmmmm I'll just leave that decision to the parents who love her a lot more than we do. Cheers

Your new Highfield and 30/2 stroke got on plane pretty quick, i see the smooth ride you mentioned in action. Stoked for you! and those landing wheels are a game changer.

Do like Luckyfish and RAN, use a baby leash. You can tether her to a central cleat on a harness when she is not under full observation.

Wow I was there with my husband last year in february. So sad to see it shut down !

Wow that was beautiful when the rain was coming

Sorry you guys couldn’t get away before they started. Our rain due end on this month so we are trying to get land work done before it starts.. ingat (be safe guys!)

Thanks for sharing another great video. Stay safe ⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️😘

We look forward to your video all week! Better than Game of Thrones.

Weather like that increases my admiration for you both. I think I would only be happy with dead flat seas and sunshine!

Love you guys! Willa is adorable! Reminds me of my daughter when she was that age, and her waving to you while she drank her bottle was cute, keep up the fun videos, hope to see you all on the high seas soon, fair winds and following seas!

You know this is so peaceful watching this. I'll tell you what my adventures going to be I bought a Ford F 350 2017 dually with a Nucamp Cirrus truck bed camper. I have to fly to Lansing Michigan Friday to pick it up then in June I plan on driving from Florida to Alaska and I turn 70 July 7th. My dad was an engineer on the HWY IN 1941 for the Alcan Hwy. Look that camper up there real cool. I was a US NAVY PHOTOGRAPHER in 1971 to 75 so I'm good at photography I will be shooting some video I only wish I was as talented as you all are. I love watching your travels. When I was growing up there was a TV Series called BOLD JOURNEY it was probably the earliest travel show produced we would watch it as a family then. I believe they were using Airstream trailers.

Happy to see you guys happy...!..bests

When a storm is hitting you while at anchor, at what point do you start the engine(s), just in case the anchor drags?

Sending much love to you guys from California ❤️✨✌️

I lived in Pattaya for a year. The saying about raining buckets is no joke. I almost drown in rain one afternoon. I was water boarded. Sad all is closed up.

I think the best moment will be when Willa realizes that other kids her age don’t experience the joy of this lifestyle. Safe travels. Just to let you know most subscribers are jealous that you guys had the balls to live the life you are living. Peace nick from Toronto.

Have you seen the seat Malin & Johan rigged up for baby Vera in "Ep. 219 RAN Sailing" gives them both freedom to manage the boat when needed and Vera gets to see everything that's going on.

Been there, done that, waves so bad could not stay below being anchored. Had to be in cockpit while being pelted by the needling rain on open skin. Being in the cockpit, observed boats going aground. Some being lost to rocks, others being bashed against pilings on shore.

Much love to y’all, I’m from texas🥰

Thx for sharing, guys. The main party street you were on is Bangla Road-- a lot of fun. How I would have loved to have been there with u guys and bought u a beer. It's so sad to see what is happening there. I've been following the situation in Thailand since the covid outbreak. Hopefully, things will be getting better soon. The island of Phuket will start allowing vaccinated tourists without any quarantine 7/1/21. I'm hoping to get there for a month soon thereafter. Be well!!

Glad to watch again your vlog take care always..

Also a helmet for the baby if she fall down stars or if she fall her head plus net of the stars or use some sort guard rail at the start pf the stars .

Casual stuff, Ben in total misery in the end , Ash just laughing at him.

Good job you folks. Keep it up.

It’s so incredibly surreal

This is so cool, Willa is becoming the star of the show. Love the channel, keep up the adventure.

I went to Thailand for many years pre covid, It so sad to see this, I had many party nights in Kangaroo bar, well worth the 11hr 30 min flight from London. I also miss the food, Thank you for the content, I'm very happy to see you guys back up and sailing

I love your channel!! Safe travels!!

That is the most chill baby ever lol

love the music

Willa’s adventure yeeeeeyyy🥰🥰

Awesome show guys,
