right now she's dropping a hard hat
thanks for stopping by for this week's
adventure Isaac and this oil and it's
just super dramatic I think here tactics
paid off the pair didn't actually
[Music]
[Applause]
last week after an awesome sale from
gorgeous beaver kay we spotted a
shipwreck which of course we had to go
and explore anything right we're on the
island and determination is key at times
like this once I'll pull them down
truffle is in getting them off the
ground but I can get them I can get
these sorry anyway so Darrin's just
making a little track in and I'm
enjoying the view it's quite lovely big
in here lovely and cool anyways very hot
outside today is this the best tool we
were ever had that's fantastic I'll
never wear even water dreamed of eating
a coconut before but now we can get them
yeah it's a game kind yeah yeah alright
trudging his way through the undergrowth
and over fallen trees MacDowell gets
closer by the minute to our Hall love to
make things fairly quick though because
there's lots of green ants in here from
all way there by its pack-a-punch
oh nice job my honey just hook them in
the side and they just pull them
straight to me Hank okay yeah I don't
know if you knew this about green ants
but if you pick them up by their sides
like you would pick up a crab and you
suck the bright green and neon green
bottom of them it's actually like having
a fizzy lemonade taste
although yeah you got to be game enough
to do it but it is quite refreshing sort
of that pops and bangs in your mouth
like one of those lollies it sort of
fizzes and sparkles and it's got this
lovely lemon flavor worth giving a go if
you feel you're up to the challenge
anyway I only cake today you did don't
normally don't have to go belting
through the jungle for these guys I
normally just stand on the beach and
grab a bit anyway
good a little adventure though so that's
excellent we've got four from that hole
which is just great down had to do a bit
of jungle climbing but yeah brilliant
take a look
you're depending on what you want to do
with your coconuts whether you want to
go for the green and ones that have got
more water in them or whether you want
to get the slightly yellow ones that
have got a bit bit of that flesh it's a
bit sort of jelly-like substance which
is really nice or whether you want to go
with some meat and make that up into a
coconut milk or shave it off and grill
it make it into shavings that you can
put on to a salad or just eat it and
chunks Andrew like we do it's really
tasty so the humble old coconut it's got
a lot of goodness in it and yeah even
the brown ones are good see this little
guy here he's actually shooting and he's
going to put his roots to the ground
hopefully and grow so we'll leave him
here but some people do it she eat those
shoots they're quite tasty but this is a
little bit old for them to be tasty he's
gonna put his roots to the ground we'll
let him grow yeah so this guy here he's
actually the same as that little one I
just showed you and he's gone to ground
and he's gonna grow up and be a big and
strong coconut tree you can see the
green ants in there
I just disturbed their little nest but
they'll be loving finding their way into
his juicy goodness back on the hunt and
it's my turn to add to our collection
no I just dropped it a hardhead
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
nice little well done baby
excellent okay these guys are perfect
just sort of going a little bit brownish
tawny little bit of milk in there just a
tiny bit though these will be a really
good eating coconut so after a quick
drink it's time to freshen up nice
refreshing dip after the big coconut
haul good sir
okay so I'm just making up some lunch
and this is a really nice healthy one
and just thought I'd give it a go in a
little different format it's kind of
like tacos or a salad sandwich except
it's using a leader sleeve so a big
colors lettuce leaf here and I've got
some smashed pumpkin layered on the
bottom that's been done with added a
little ginger in there just steamed it
and smashed it up give us a really nice
flavor and I've got some of the meat
well not meat actually a mushroom how do
use mushroom a little patties omit that
I made up the other day and then I've
just cut up some grated some carrots of
avocado and some capsicum and put two
broken basil leaves in there I've taken
the stem out of the center and I'm just
going to fold it hopefully this will
fold yeah
and make a little roll up okay and
that's what they've ended up with nice
scrummy roll up little salad sandwich
with a good haul of coconuts and our
bellies full we raised the anchor and
set sail on our journey through hitching
Brooke channel and onwards to Orpheus
Island we'd heard that hitching Brooke
was a sight to behold
and we're looking forward to setting our
eyes on this magical place
so we're going pretty good heading off
to our next destination we thought we
might have to run the spinnaker but we
got a bad rap on the hips or last night
so we thought we'd just unwrap that and
we seem to be doing all right
cruising along and a mosey moseying
level of five knots no we've been very
light breeze behind this
well now on
whoo mocking the ovaries when we come
out from behind this island but yet
[Music]
and just like that so we're doing
basically there's a lovely thank you the
wind was sprightly making for a
challenging fun sale as we tacked our
way over and up into the channel
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
so it just steamed and then the in sort
of Hinchinbrook channel
and this all and it's just super
dramatic let's check you said amazing
reminiscent of the Jurassic era and with
the aboriginal name of Boland Milbury
Hinchinbrook channel is 50 nautical
miles long separating the mainland from
the Hitchin Brooke island from Lucinda
to Oyster Point this stunning area hosts
dugong turtles and crocodiles and one of
the largest and richest areas of
mangroves in Australia with over 30
species found here a favorite of
fishermen pigeon Brooke is also known to
hold a decent supply of mud crab
we were just stuff to get out the
binoculars by and it's going to be too
hard to get into because of the mangrove
situation but there's a coconut tree
over there
heading out of the channel we prep for a
head covering sale and strong winds over
to obvious island yeah we've got the
right thing
we should be geared up if sheep says
long a little bit I don't really go to
ride coming my honey
does
pretty good fun we've played it out past
the sugar terminal
what was the sugar teratoma
and
I've got about sort of 16 to 18 knots of
breeze we're pulling between sixes and
sevens touches or lo7 so it's pretty
good really and we're fairly much hip to
wind
and we're just kidding but Orpheus
honors over that way
good of lumpy seas but nothing too bad
but nice now they say that's pretty good
so we've got about an hour or so to go
and we should drop the pic and a
beautiful Anchorage
we come out of the old Hinchinbrook the
channel there on a Royal Thai there's a
few little shallow spots in there
so we'll use that in our favor just to
make sure it's all good and that was
successful
the only problem is with it we've ended
up having a Porsche bitter toward the
end of where we are but anyway it's not
a Wi-Fi in Thailand that was the end
result staying pretty good
[Music]
well I think in tactics pay up
when you look at what happened and
they'll Jake yes and we come out with
it's a white boy there that you
you have to go around and that's the end
of the Shella is there but we just might
aside that a little bit further we we
didn't really have a choice there and we
take we take pretty early and then we'll
come down here we've actually been
making a little bit of east as the wind
is variation so we'll be this is where
we're going to hit to in this little by
ear yeah I've actually had us pointing
up there a couple times yeah you can see
all the little lifts and the Falls will
then having just well with silent and
now we're getting up in in behind the a
of these islands we're getting all sorts
of we'll get all these little shifts
going on elsewhere
sometimes we might get a little bit
higher or sometimes we just follow the
wire with all the wind ships you can say
on the line
we'll find going up and down but tonight
it's fine pretty much working in a fi of
a consider all laying down
