The Cruising Freedom Author
Ahoy, Matey! I’m Joshua from Australia.
I’ve built the perfect business to sail the world.
A business model which can allow me to:
➜ Own a catamaran debt-free
➜ Go for weeks without WIFI
➜ Create semi-passive income
➜ Inspire others to dream big
But more on that later… 🙂
Brooksy Fishing FAQs (April 2023)
Boat Name
I don’t think their boat has a name currently.
Crew Members
Jonny Brooks (age 34) from Brisbane
Gemma Brooks (age 31) is his girlfriend. They aren’t married but coincidently have the same last name.
Rhiannon Burchall has been featured on the channel. She is another stunner who’s 25 and from Byron Bay
The Boat
Brooksy owns an Ocean Blue boat with AZC98Q as the registration number.
Upgrades
His main upgrade was the electric trolling motor.
Location
He’s currently in the Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef, and while you’re watching YouTube, he’s picking up hot chicks… 😉
Past Cruising
Most of his fishing and cruising adventures has been in Australia.
Affording It
Brooksy, much like many YouTubers, simply worked hard and saved as much as he could. Through such effort, he was able to quit his job and focus on creating videos full-time.
Net Worth
Australians are becoming wealthy on YouTube…
As of 2023, Brooksy Fishing has a net worth of $370,000 AUD.
This is estimated based on his boat value, channel metrics, business income and personal savings.
Making Loot
He makes some money through sponsorships (but declines many of the crapping fishing brands) while most of his income comes from allowing YouTube to run ads on his channel. In total, he makes around $4,500/month through creating the videos you see every week.
Collaborations
Have you seen him mix it up with other YouTubers? I haven’t but if you have, please reach out and I can update this Cruising Freedom article.
Big Moments
Cool videos that have come out through his fishing adventures include:
➜ Catching marlin on the beach (a total WTF moment!)
➜ Using a flying fish lure which was just like a real fish
➜ Camping alone on a remote island
➜ Having an experience with a crocodile
By far his best catch was his girlfriend. She is an absolute stunner!
Future Plans
Where to next? He’s doing YouTube full-time now and might consider sailing around the world.
Key Takeaways
What can we learn from our awesome legend on the waterways?
➜ Just buy a simple boat
➜ Be willing to try new things
➜ Don’t fake it on YouTube
➜ You can definitely work remotely
And of course, the best catch is a stunning woman who loves fishing as much as you do!
Conclusion
Old mate Brooksy has definitely inspired many of us to make the most out of each weekend. Whether it’s just going down to the local jetty or getting a boat and heading 5 miles off shore, there’s certainly a ton of motivation here.
He’s worked out how to make a reasonable income online, and now it’s your turn…
