Patreon ONLY update 008 | Season One review

Hi beautiful family,

We hope you have had an amazingly (probably also strange) Christmas filled with gratitude and love. As we are going towards the end of this year we wanted to share some light in our plans for you. But first....

Patrick we hope you are fine and we are so proud that you belong to our Feel the Breeze family and that you have spend your Christmas days helping those who need it the most. 

Patrick is a part of the Australian Army and got called on duty to go to Fiji. Some parts of Fiji got struck really hard by a cyclone and Patrick and all his colleagues are working around the clock to help the people in need. This year the Pacific region has endured catastrophic bushfires and tropical cyclones and the shared challenge of COVID-19 doesn't makes it easier.

We feel so blessed that we are safe, healthy and in our sailing home and our thoughts are with you, your colleagues and especially all the people who got hit by the cyclone. Thanks for being such amazing humans!!!

Then something festive! Pim (our friend and also a Beneteau 57 lover and owner) is having an amazing birthday today! Must always be a little bit different having a birthday between the holidays and now even more with Covid - but we got your back - Benjamin is singing happy birthday as we speak/or better said as we write, just for you. We try to record and will send the outcome via WhatsApp. Have an amazing day today, you are the best and thanks for all your support last year!

Even though Christmas is totally different, we enjoyed it very much. We spend our holidays, quite a big part in pyjama’s 🤣 and loved just being together. No obligations or driving through the whole country to be with family, just together enjoying each other, good food and a glass of wine and listening to the wind - it’s blowing quite hard (30 knots) - and Christmas carols.

And now with New Year coming close, we are reflecting on our 2020 year and reminiscing over 2021. We really can’t wait to show you all that we have been working on and to unfold our plans for Patreon in 2021.

We are going to bring more value!

More live Q&A - with questions send upfront so we have something to talk about if nobody is online 😅

More knowledge sharing - we will be launching our Feel the Breeze mindset courses this year and want to share them which means a lot of other extras for you.

We will be focusing on the exclusive content about sailing, adventures, mindset, and business.

Making brand deals - as ‘infuencers’ we have opportunities to work with brands which we two years ago never held possible. And we want to make more brand deals that are beneficial for you. Think about sharing referral fees, affiliate commissions and or exclusive offers. 

We are working on: Finsulate (we are making an in-depth video about the product - so please wait for that one before you decide on this product- there is one bad review on YouTube, which we know and decided to use the product anyway, but in the video we will explain everything), SaltyLuxe sustainable swimwear for the ladies (great present), Solbian (solar panels), SuperB (lithium batteries for boats and cars), Raymarine (sailing instruments) and the startup company Ancora Health who sponsored our sails. Besides being brand ambassador for them we just became shareholders because we helped them big time in the beginning, from idea to reality and now they are a team of more than 30 people and two great on-boarding locations in the Netherlands. Very grateful to be part of this journey as well and for me (Gerben) a big confidence boost in being a business man again. 

 If you have a brand in your mind that fits our values, please let us know and we will see what we can do. Our Patrons Steven and Diana are helping us to get in direct contact with Dyneema for the running rigging and landlines and share the benefits with the world. Thank you and looking forward to it! 

Tony Robbins - some of you asked for more info about our Tony Robbins experiences - this is coming in January, we are working on it!

And we have a lot more creative ideas - but we want to surprise you with these ones, sorry for keeping you hanging ;)

Please let us know if you have other ideas or wishes for our community here. We love to take them into account.

Have an amazing day and thanks for being here!

Much love from us and enjoy the last days of 2020.



Gerben, Rianne & Benjamin
