In this video I bring you back to Prachuap Khiri Khan Thailand. Unfortunately, due to some bad weather, and a bad decision, a gentleman lost his 2 million baht boat and he didn’t have any insurance. I also bring you to an annual festival which in the biggest festival in Khiri Khan.
Looks great, wish i was there. Also looks like hardly anyone had masks on and not worried about coronavirus so maybe Thailand government is telling truth about low number of cases
Foreigner Joe i think the offical report is 35 confirmed cases and most in Bangkok from China travelers so that seems about right. Hope it stays away so we can make our May trip
Thank you π I hope all is well with you guys. Unfortunately, Iβm not sure how accurate this info is, but I was told that there are three confirmed cases here in Bangkok. A gentlemen and his wife came back from being in Japan and he went to the doctor on the 23rd from feeling ill π· but forgot to mention that he was in Japan. He was diagnosed today with the corona virus after going back to the doctor. All the best!
Nice one Buddy well done, looks like fun there and great to see the guy smiling after losing his yacht πππ
Thank you brother. All the best!
Great vid. Klause, Toon, Gift, and yourself are a nice combo.
Thank you π my friend. All the best!
How to go Gift winning the rice cooker.
Just what we needed, another rice cooker, now I can eat double the portions lol π All the best!
Looked an awesome festival. I think i would spend the whole time eating there though. So much delicious food!π
It was my friend, we had a great π time while there. Thank you π for watching. All the best!
Wow thatβs madness to own a MV that size without insurance π― atlesst he can smile at the end of the day ππ
he must have money to burn if he can still laugh about it
Very good Joe, couldn’t help having that sinking feeling when I saw the lovely boat stuck in the sand.
That Festival looked amazing did you guys strike it lucky with the time or did you know that it was on?
I really enjoyed this thank you.
Thank you π my friend. We were just lucky, totally unplanned. All the best!
ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈ= red cross Maybe some profits of the festival go to the red cross! Looks like fun festival.
Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
Unlike western cultures, when you donate to the monks and red cross etc then 100% goes there. No-one has their little fingers in the pie, they are Buddhist not capitalists.
Wow medium size boat no insurance, and he just laughed,he knows that getting angry wonβt make the situation better,I would go back and get the rear part of boat thatβs where the expensive engines are,have fun Joe and Gift
When I left they were still working on retrieving the rest of the boat including the engines. Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
Joe this festival is which month and date every year?
I believe the Red Cross festival is in the month of February every year and goes for 9 days. All the best!
My absolute fav place in all Thailand! Great video
Thank you π my friend.
ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈ΄ means Red Cross Festival
Thank you for sharing my friend. All the best!
You might have known by now thats the annual Red Cross charity festival (fund raising)β ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈΰΈ²ΰΈ of the province.β Youβ andβ Gift.were lucky.β Thanks Joe.
Thank you π my friend. All the best!

That boat owner a bit cracked i think , but great example of saving face the Thai way . 2,000,000 bhat , well that’s only Β£48,000 and doesn’t seem to give a shit lol .
@Foreigner Joe Always great vids by the way .
He could stress over it but it wonβt change a thing. Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
Brill Joe + Gift loved it we was there !
Thank you π my friend. All the best!
Not a lot left of that poor lads boat but he was still laughing and smiling good for him pleased to see your all looking fit and well and enjoying your self’s lots of love to you all from the Stephenson family.
Thank you π so much my friend. All the best!
Great video Joe , really enjoy watching yours, there not too long and always interesting
Thank you π for your positive feedback my friend. All the best!
Great looking festival and food.
Thank you π my friend. All the best!
What a great video Joe, so glad all you guys are having such a great time. I would have been really happy to win a rice cooker but a bike would have been better for sure! Hahaha!
Good for Klaus. I was going to eat one of those or try a beetle but I never saw any except in the frozen food section at Macro in Cha Am hahaha!!!
Thatβs a real shame for that guy who lost his boat. Thatβs about $65,500 in USD. And no insurance? What a loss. Really shows you something about Thai people that he was still smiling and laughing after such a loss.
Take care you two. Drive safe and Paul says hello to the both of you.
now you got two,,, one for you.. NO…. ha ha ha ha,,, and no box or instructions for the rice cooker,,,,,,,, must be stolen ,,, lol
Lol π now I can eat double the rice. Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
Hi Joe itβs me Sam
Hi Sam, Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
Thank you for sharing your day! Awesome that Gift won a rice cooker! As always your videos bring a smile to my face. Keep em coming Joe. πβ€
Thank you π so much for your kind words my friend. All the best!
Buddy you should try to visit Krabi. Its also a lovely place. Might just fall in love with it. Stay safe!
Iβve been to Krabi once my friend, it is a very nice area. We will hopefully visit there again, later this year. All the best!
Good video, thank you
Thank you π so much my friend. All the best!
So beautiful. TQVVM.
Thank you my friend. All the best!
Another great video with Klaus and Toon, they seem like very easy going people. Sucks about the guys boat, I had some scary times when living on mine but fortunately it never sank through 2 hurricanes, although I did wake up on the other side of the bay from where I anchored once. Try the sugarcane grubs they can taste like sweet cashews sometimes, but donβt eat the water bugs, they can be very bitter. Thanks for sharing, many blessings to you both π
Cheers π»
Thank you π for sharing your boat experiences my friend. Iβm not a huge fan of being out on the water, so no need for me to worry about sinking π All the best!
Nice video Joe and Gift enjoyed it. That market has a lot.. Wow the poor boat owner.
Gifts lucky day and wins a rice cooker.
What a shame about the boat and no insurance too. Get a scuba diver to locate the other half . At least salvage the engines.
Thank you π my friend . When we left, they were working on salvaging the engines. All the best!
πππ€£
thumbs up
Thank you π so much my friend. All the best!
You see (at the end) they have enough from America people, if you were french, swiss or german people they will welcome you like as if you were heroes ! lol π π !!??
@mma momo Most Thais couldn’t distinguish one Farang from the oother, let alone specific nationalities. All white people are the same. And more importantly, Thais don’t give sh…t about it. If you are a dick, you will be treated like one. Your statement is just your own perception and attitude. Learn more and broaden your view a bit more, SIR!
Foreigner Joe i know i know my friend, not worry, i just do joke ! All the best for you and girlfriend also !
Lol π I am treated very well as American living in Thailand my friend. All the best!
Hi Joe and Gift the festival looked like a blast. You guys looked like the only 2 farong around. Congrats on the rice cooker and plates how long did u have to slept that around π Anyway thanks for the video take care u guys. Jeffrey Stecher Henderson nevada
Thank you π my friend. We left shortly after winning the things. We really enjoyed the festivities, food, music and had a great time with Klaus and Toon. All the best!
“My Joe” brings Good Fortune to Gift…Rice Cooker is very good luck.

Was there Monday evening. Crowded at the festival. Lots of good food. Kind of funny that nobody at my hotel could explain what festival it was. Just that itβs an annual event. Prachuap Khiri Khan is well worth the visit. Will go for a longer stay next time π
Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
nice festival – very colourful – very noisy – very Thai .
Thank you π for watching my friend. All the best!
The crane cost more to hire for that peace of old crap…wast money
lol…………I will eat my hat if the thais don’t try and swipe those engines in the middle of the night ….
Lol π All the best!
great video joe
Thank you so much my friend. All the best!
Where are you from bruh??? New York???
Hoboken NJ, right across from NYC my friend. All the best!
Congrats to Gift on winning the rice cooker!!!! She is having a better day than the boat owner LOL
That looks like Chuck’s friend (Clas) from Sweden. I don’t think a day goes by without a festival somewhere in Thailand.
It is Klaus my friend . Thank you π for watching. All the best!
Insurance is for pessimists. LOL.
Well they say that the best times of owning a boat are when you buy it and when you get rid of it…
Ugh that hurts. You have to insure valuables! I wouldn’t be smiling.
Wow can’t believe that guy is smiling after losing that nice boat. Gift should be dancing on that stage haha. All that food looks great. Interesting festival and congrats on the rice cooker
Thank you for watching my friend. All the best!
Of course you know that’s going to happen next. Instead of calling it a lost and destroying it. They will clean it out and use it again. I had a friends car that got caught in a flood when I lived there and they just cleaned it out and gave it back to him. Of course after I told him. What was going to happen to the electronics and other parts of the car. He sold it. Feel bad for the other person that has it now..
I’m not sure my friend. Stay safe! All the best!
My husband wants to move to Thailand but I am reluctance because I am afraid of medical cost for him. He has Medicare plus BCBS . I have BCBS only. Do they accept our insurance in Thailand???
I have Federal BCBS which I carried with me into retirement. My insurance covers me in many countries including Thailand. I recommend you contact your BCBS customer service representative and ask if you are covered in Thailand. Sorry I canβt be of more help. Stay safe! All the best!
