#refit #boatprojects
Renee n Kieth - the years down the line, been following your channel & family, you two have been upright, loving & great parents. You don't owe an explanation to anybody. How many kids in this earth have lived & grown, seen & experienced the world & earth like them. They are world citizens. Huge Respect for you both.
It's always good to be upright for as long as you can.
Well, the sad part is that they felt the need to talk about it. Love Keith, love Rene and their family. I consider myself to be an extended family after all this time, we just need to get the paperwork done 😀I wish them best of luck and years of bringing joy into our lives.
@@SuperMarioYOh no you don't. I'm next in line to be adopted. No line cutting. Lol
Facts
Agree with both of you, I was grown the same way from my parents
Blind Freddy can see you have a normal healthy realtionship with your wife and kids. I don't see any problem with your approach and showing affection publically is perfectly normal and very healthy IMHO.
Keith and Renee…don’t apologize for raising good humans…we all recognize what is going on in the world today…and for sure your kids are a positive force..we applaud you.
I am so happy you answered people who tried to criticize the way you raise your family. Too many people stick their nose where it doesn’t belong. I think your kids are probably the most level headed well adjusted and worldly. Congrats to all of you
I totally agree with the way you guys raised your kids. I think the problem today is that there is not enough love, affection, honesty and respect shown for our fellow humans. Rock on guys. Love watching your Chanel. Leshh gooooo! By the way, I'm a South African living in Western Australia. Lekker!
Ha! Two of our most favorite places in the world!!
@@SailingZatara I only got to know about your channel after you had visited where I now live, Busselton. It would have been awesome to meet you all. I have since watched every single episode since you started on the boat. Always look forward to each week. Thank you. Fernando. Is my name. 🙏👍
Also watching from SA...thinking maybe it's time to become " country-less " and make the highseas home....😅😊😅😂
When you put your life out on the internet for the world to see it, you should expect people to like it or not, nothing more nothing less Only dictators are adored by 99.99999 % of the population. We normal people tend to disagree and I will always fight for your right to disagree with me.
no way another west aussie!! im from the mandurah region so a couple hours north of you lol
Renee - “It’s not a dad bod, it’s a father figure”! ❤
love it!
Don't be ashamed for anything... you guys are the epitome of a great family unit! If there are haters out there, they can disengage with your channel. Don't change anything. I've been following you all for years and I admire how you've taught your children and I'm very impressed how they all turned out. Very respectable and responsible. I hope to meet you all someday and congratulate your accomplishments!
I’ve been watching you guys for several years…I’m 76 yrs old and I think you two are great parents…Jack is now a young man who cares/loves a young woman. Jack is trying to figure all these things out…love, life, and the big question…what do I do with my life? You two are great parents!!!!
I have been following you guys for a year, I’m 71 years old and I have never seen anything wrong with your content Jacks, Finns and now Kates content…hard to understand how a simple kiss could be a problem
Maybe it is subscribers they picked up while traveling in Middle Eastern countries.
They have great parenting skills in my opinion
Get'em Keith!! LOL Ain't no shame in your game!! LOL Keith's rants are some of my favorites parts of the episodes.
I'm 65 and I just want to say I love how your family interacts with each other, all the love you share. Thanks for sharing.
AWESOME that you addressed the importance of showing love and affection. People need to do more of this!!
Keith you are on point with expressing affection openly. Keep on living you all best lives. Thanks for sharing !!
Yes, it's a normal, healthy part of the human condition.
Dont worry about overlapping content with your kids. I like to see it all from the different perspectives! I can't wait for Keith to talk about wrecking a boat!!!!! :D
I always enjoy when Keith shares his opinions and I really believe both of you have given your children the best chance for success as they go forth onto the world.
I’ve been a (silent) subscriber for years now. Your content has fascinated and thrilled me for all this time. I love the life you have, but most importantly your family dynamics. The reason I’m commenting today is because of what Keith was talking about at. 22:00. Firstly I can’t believe that there were actual negative comments about that. So here’s what I have to say. That Jack is comfortable enough to express his feelings to the young lady he’s in a relationship with in front of his parents suggests that he has been brought up as a fine young man and is a credit to his parents. Good luck on the rest of your journeys.
Well said Keith and Renee. Tell the world how to parent the right way! You have raised amazing young adults. Don’t ever change what you post. Those that follow know you'll never change but I do worry that the content may be somewhat pc censored, DO NOT DO IT. This is WHY long-time viewers love your channel!
You are so correct, Keith! No boxes! Open conversations with family!
Over the years have always appreciated the displays of affections in your family, along with the side jokes. Come on, life is short, enjoy it. Thanks.
"My kids don't have to live in a box..." is the best. And all your years with the kids on board, was the best idea for all of you.
Mr. Whitaker God, we need more fathers like you and Mrs. Whitaker. We need more mothers like you. I think your kid turned out amazing. Keep up the great content and keep being yourself.
Another great episode. My take on your kids has changed over the years, partially because of your channel. When I was a younger (26)father, I thought my friends who homeschooled were crazy and were going to have poorly socialized kids. Well, 26 years later, those same friends have courteous successful kids. Mine still struggle, they seem to be about 4 years behind the homeschooled kids AND I have had to "un teach" my kids so much of the public school agenda. You've done a great job. Never let anyone tell you different May your kids go on to be happy and successful adults who enjoy their lives and hopefully help change "polite society" in their images. And the fact Jack has a girlfriend on the boat reinforces the "socially normal" way your parenting style has taught. In your earlier days, I always thought "how will they meet/date" when they get older?" Whelp...just like that.
Well said. I hope you're kids get up to speed soon. You've proven through these comments that you are a fellow who cares and that will help them in life.
22:27 Keth you are 100% right…. You have great kids, so respectful, you guys have done a great job…. Old saying is Fish On !!! 😂
How can people forget what new love is like! They are simple spontaneous kisses. Too bad for the negativity.
Wow, I didn’t know the PDA on the video was offending anybody, that went right over my head. Keith and Renee, you do a great job raising your kids, keep up the good work. Cheers from beautiful East Lansing Michigan.
You are absolutely right about what you said, Keith. 100% agree with you. I am the same way, and my kids are the same age as Jack.
Love you all!! Keep being you. The authenticity and humor are the best! People focus on minutiae. It’s insane and unnatural what people are commenting about!!!Love the kids too❤ We want our kids to want to be with us and share their lives with us as they grow into adulthood.
No one should ever be ashamed to see their kids happy. A kiss is a kiss. These are good people raising good kids.
I know how frustrating it is when things don't go right, especially with mechanical problems when you get the modifications finally done and them engines in, you'll be so happy. I have watched all 282 episodes. My wife's watched about 250 episodes. You and your family are living our dreams. God bless you and your family
Dont apologize for anything. Been following you guys for years. Beautiful family and very well mannered children.
Keith, I LOVE the way you “explained” how you have raised your kids. A finer family would be hard to find. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💞
GO Keith! You have an amazing family. Keep doing what you guys are doing.
Don't stop the jokes Keith, shame on those that try to shame, you both have a family to be proud of.
That lovely young lady Mackenzie (whom Jack kissed) put it in a nut shell when we saw her video on people being too sensitive about everything these days. You guys have got it made by keeping clear of most of the human race.....affection 👏🏻 is a beautiful thing which units us. You are a great family with top values....keep it up...take no notice of the cold knockers. Much love from Naughty Nana Jude, 74 , from Queensland in Australia xx
I saw the kisses between Jack and Mckenzie, normal display of affection, none issue. Dang world is so picky, I find it hard to believe it was even brought up. Keith, I thought there would be some modifications involved before those great looking Yanmars found there home. That security camera system you are installing looks dead nuts, I want one. Oh, I saw some nuns at a pickle factory yesterday. All smiles the lovely lot of them. Looking forward to the engines first start, Dan.
Your kids are great. You did a good job raising them to be good people.
Great speech from Keith!! When you have thru love, it is important to teach it. Make your kids great and show them what is respect and love.
You both just got my total respect .I mean I did think you're amazing people to begin with the life that you're living and raising your family. But now just listening to how you talk about how you are raising your kids got my total respect. The same way I've raised my daughter and now I see her raising her children the same way and that makes you feel proud in knowing that you were part of that. Keep being you and
Never saw the content in question, but WGAF. Y’all are doing everything right and the people who have issues are the same people that are doing and thinking the same sick and twisted crap that is going on in the world.
I completely agree with Keith. It’s the best way to raise kids. I saw the reel and thought it was fantastic.
My wife and I are in our 70's and we look for your video's every week! You have a fantastic family and friends! I hate you are caught in Dania. I grew up there. You are in an area that had a "Chimp" research facility in the 1950's. In the 1970's I worked with Florida Power and Light and it was undeveloped with wild monkeys in the swampy woods. I hope you get your engines soon, but if you are still there May 4th and 5th, we would love to meet you and your family. We will be there for our grand daughter's college graduation! We love Jack and Finn's videos. Especially enjoying Jack and his girlfriend. My wife and I dated on Dania and Hollywood Beach. You guys are bringing back fond memories! I loved boating, diving, and skiing in that area, as well as going to everglades, and Everglades City like Jack and friends!
I loved Keith speech. Your RIGHT. LIVE LIFE LOVE , I raised my kid this way too , live and love and show your kids, Your an excellent example. Thanks.
well said keith!!!! agree completely. hope in the next 2 years my family (of six) and I will be out there on the water where we to can leave this chaos behind. you guys have/are so inspirational to us.
Keith, I did the same with my kids and each one of them have thanked me individually. My oldest is 40 now and youngest is 33. There should be no shame.
Your children as young adults is proof that your parenting skills are working in a positive way. Keep it up Keith and Renee, following you since your first sail.
As a PADI instructor I approve of the idea of getting your rescue diver cert. It moves you from being aware of yourself to being aware of other divers and how to deal with emergencies. Everyone should go to rescue. Jack should look at dive master.
I really enjoy seeing the same Zatara moment from the different perspectives on the boat. Live it well!
I like seeing the content from everyone's different perspective. Please don't feel pressure to be unique. Thank you for sharing your lives, lessons and loves.
My wife and I have been following your channel since you were on the monohull, you have inspired us to sell everything and move on the boat and travel. We are currently on our second year and wouldn’t dream of stopping. What ever you decide just remember you and your family have been a positive influence on so very many people. Thank you and God Bless
That’s AMAZING!!! Thank you! So glad you changed your life for good! 😊💕
Bravo Keith for your explanation of REARING YOUR Children. Great choices..great words..great examples and great respect of society and your children and people you come into contact with. Bravo Keith. Renee! Thank you your compassion of filmmaking and Also nurturing a wonderful family . Cheers safe travels
awesome speech Keith!! show you're kids how to love and interact...the world needs more love !!!!
Don't worry about the "prudes" out there. You guys are great parents!
I adore the fact that you always have treated your kids like people...your equals, even though you are in charge of their well-being. As a child, and even now well into my mid 30's, I was always treated like property. Your family is wonderful and your parenting style is definitely something to be proud of. ❤
You go Keith and Renee. You have done a wonderful job and have 5 grown children to show your good people. I was raised with affection and there is no shame in showing it.
I have loved watching you and your family grow and change over the years. We have never met but I get excited for all the new things you have going on. I am looking forward to your future adventures and thank you for making your life open to all. Great Job as parents and a couple.
Hi Kieth, Renee and Fam, what you said in your video is so true. Thank you for being open. showing affection in public is 100% that what I was taught
I love your affectionate family !! That's the way I was raised and when I got my own family, we were very close and loving just like you guys. Great lecture, Keith. I'm so glad you aren't a " Sticks in the Mud ". Love you guys.
I'm from the UK I have watched your videos for years thanks for sharing your family life aboard. At the moment your better off living your life at sea, the world is going mad I'm 76 I hate what's going on with our government's. Stay safe God bless you all
Well said Keith 👏
I recently came across your channel and started watching during the Atlantic crossing. You guys are amazing family with a very close bound. To be able to live on a small boat year around created a very close relationship. The life experiences, the things you've been able to see and do, the places you've been can never be replaced. Ignore stupide because you can't fix it. Keep doing you. At 65 we live our lives in front of our kids and even a mother-in-law.
This has got to be the best thing that’s ever come out of Keith’s mouth! 🤭 much respect! 🫡
The Whitaker’s are as great a family as they come! Respect and admiration all ways!
I love your family and the honesty you guys have. I am so happy for Jack and young love is beautiful. Our society is so crazy anymore. I am also happy for Finn as he gets ready for his adventure. I do feel bad for you new almost empty nesters, it's a hard adjustment but it's exciting for your kiddos! Keep being you! Whitakers !!❤❤❤
I started watching your channel when Anna was on the boat. I love your kids they are the best. You did a good job of raising them. I love the fact they can actually work on the boat a fix things on the fly! Our world is changing by force and it’s not a good thing. I have two boys a 34 year old in September and 30 year. I am 65 I am an older parent and saw lots of things I didn’t agree with during their school years. Thank you for sharing. I had a couple of good laughs too! 😘
Thanks for sharing SV Zatara!
I remember the kisses. As the time I thought how wonderful that the kids can express themselves that way in front of mom and dad and also that mom and dad are so accepting of their children. Loved it.
I also feel sorry for those that put themselves in imaginary boxes, good on you guys!
I agree with what you said of being open and not be afraid of showing affection.
Hey, I like your speech about your kids having no boundaries when it comes to showing love for each others in front of you. If only more people were like that maybe there would be less wars in the world. We are having the same mindset in our family. Regards from Rolf in Norway
I love Keith’s rants! He’d be a perfect guest on Rogans podcast 😆. Keep on keeping on Zatara crew. Cheers!
thank you for saying that , its a good point to be not ashamed
You are great parents. Don’t pay attention to weirdo trolls
"Weirdo trolls"? Did you see the post and the likes and comments? I don't care, what I don't like I don't watch, that simple.. As well every parent has the right to raise the children however they want!
I just binge watched your 282+ videos in the past couple weeks. Love you guys! I hope your stories continue and I can continue living my dreams through your eyes!
We raise our kids the same way. Your kids are great and will be great just as their parents are. Love you guys and keep up the great work!
Bravo Keith I'm glad you and the wife stood up for your lifestyle.
In this day and age, it's so funny that this is even a conversation. lol I love following SZ and your family.
You guys are role models for so many people. As you well know, you can't always please everyone! Great content as usual!
Ya’ll are brave and level-headed in putting your family’s way of life out there. worked hard to bring your kids a better life and did the self-work to know what a healthy family life looks like. You are proud and you should be. It is the human ideal
Great people , I met the all of them , when I Rudely showed up at their boat in Ft Lauderdale, because I recognized that they were putting their engines in, around the corner from my business. Kate was so respectful and welcoming, she asked me to board, met Keith Renee, and their oldest son, a swell as Finn. Based on the way their kids spoke to me , communicated, and the friendliness and respect they portrayed, Keith & Renee, are obviously great people, and great parents
Luke is so cute. Keep Luke and Glory on the show with you and Keith fora while. They both love you and the ocean.
Ms. Renee, another great video! I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into your channel. I've come to admire, respect and treasure all of you on Zatara! I totally agree with everything you and Keith were pointing out. Nobody has more interesting, informative, fun videos than you, Jack or Finn, I love them all!
You guys are great and admire the open and respectful relationship that exists in your family. In restricted homes, without realising, the kids build a dual personality. They are one person at home with their elders and they are another person outside their home. My parents were religious in a spiritual way with an open mind. I was so comfortable being around them as a kid, teenager and later as an adult. We had an amazing friendship and did a lot of travelling together like you guys, except we did it initially in a caravan and later on in camper vans. You guys are building such amazing memories that will remain fresh in all your mental screens. I am now 70+ and those memories brings immense joy as I feel my father and mother right here with me each time. My children have always enjoyed the stories and my grandchildren will do as well as they grow up. I have watched your videos from the time you bought your cat in Greece and have shared your channel with family and friends. Every so often we have a chat about the current or a previous episode you have posted. Seeing the younger members of Zatara family grow up is like seeing our neighbour's kid growing up. Good luck to all of you and wishing you all good health and good fortune. Fair winds 🤞💕
Great Great Great . Love the non engineering topic from the enginroom . Love your stance with and how your brought up your fam. And I am 1000 % agree DADDY Z. I have watched all your vids and they are great . Learned some great stuff too . Thanks Daddy Z , Mommy Z and all the younger Zs.
Renee, Don't take anything strangers say, personally. So many are so jealous of what you have and really don't understand it. Do not give them the power to steal one second of your peace. Keep your beautiful head up and on that amazing family of yours that you should be so proud off! Lots of us love your family and the rawness and openness of you ALL. Thanks for letting us in and sharing your lives with us.
Renee and Keith...thank you for speaking your peace about how you raised your children. I raised mine the same...not just with relationships, but with everything...with the thought that, if things go sideways ( and things always go sideways lol), I wanted to be the first person they called/talked to...not the last. That absolutely cannot happen without having very open, honest, and non-judgemental parents. The "neighborhood moms" might have thought I was crazy, but my kids shared everything with me and still do as adults. You've done it all right!
Bust Out Another Thousand! Ugh. Your patience is laudable! Ty for the journey. Living the dream!😅
I saw the video and didn’t think it was inappropriate. Happy they are falling for one another. You seem to be great parents and have raised wise and friendly kids! Enjoy watching you guys. Look forward to the sailing again. I love seeing you provision and cook on board.
Props of Keith and Renee for being amazing parents and truly sensible, reasonable people who have raised an extraordinary family. Ignore the negatoilets. They can have their opinion and everyone is going to disagree on various things but it's also none of their business; they can just not watch.❤this family before even the adventures or the sailing!
The world needs more parents like yourselves ❤️
I love Keith's speech about not "living in a box" while sitting in a box...aka the engine room!! LOL
Bring on the pda Zatara crew! Love when you guys weigh in on your life philosophy. Hope to see you on the water soon. Thank you for always making me smile ❤
I think it's perfect when you share content. It shows all the different views! You guys are all amazing. Thank you for sharing.
You both are amazing parents and amazing people - there is so much ignorance and hate in the world!! Keep doing you Zatara family - have followed you for years now!! Love the content
Thank for speaking the truth about your relationship and your wonderful family. It was sad to hear the negativities you received because your children were intimate So bravo
Great video with some classic Keith and Renee wisdom on parenting. Guilt and shame are two of the most powerful tools in the human emotion toolbox. They are also the most wrongfully used tools 🧰.
KEITH OMG WELL SAID ABOUT RAISING YOUR KIDS TO BE OPEN AND SHOW LOVE. I COULDN’T AGREE WITH YOU MORE. YOU HAVE A WELL ROUNDED LOVING FAMILY. EXACTLY HOW I RAISED MY KIDS AND NOW MY ADULT KIDS TARE LOVING CARING INDIVIDUALS. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦
You guys are wonderful parents. I agree with you 100%, kids should be themselves around you and I also don’t think you should teach your kids to be ashamed. ❤
GOOD DOR YOU KEITH ! We taught our now grown up kids the same way..and now they are teaching their kids the same. Because of that our 3 kids trust each other qnd us their parents...my kids are very respectful to everyone and also have great morals and are extremely ethical and not insecure
You are a beautiful and loving family. You have inspired me to buy a sail boat and do this with my kids. Keep loving and sharing.
@ 22:37 Keith talking about NOT being in a box while sitting in a box. 😁
