3 Kings in a 3.6m Inflatable Tasman from @NZWildAdventures Pushes the Boundaries of What's Possible

3 Kings in a 3.6m Inflatable | Tasman from NZ Wild Adventures Pushes the Boundaries of What's Possible Tasman grew up on Arapawa Island in the Marlborough Sounds, homeschooled, self-sufficient, and fishing before he could drive. These days he documents some of the most audacious solo fishing and hunting adventures in New Zealand on his YouTube channel NZ Wild Adventures — mostly from the deck of a 3.6 metre inflatable. Three Kings solo. Fiordland for a month. Around Stewart Island. Sleeping in a hammock strung across the boat 35 kilometres offshore. Hunting the Hokitika Trench for Pacific bluefin tuna in winter. In this episode we get into the safety gear and planning that makes these missions possible, what a month alone in Fiordland actually looks like, the time the boat started filling with water at the start of the Three Kings crossing, and why Tasman would be doing all of this with or without a camera rolling. This is the guy doing 30-mile offshore crossings in a boat most people wouldn't take past the harbour entrance — and somehow making it look completely normal. ✅ Tasman Denize @nz_wild_adventures ✅    / @nzwildadventures   ⏱️ Chapters /Segments 00:00 Meet Tasman He grew up on Arapawa Island — homeschooled, no neighbours for 9km, hunting and fishing from day one. 10:00 The 3.6m Inflatable — Is It Actually Safe? Backup motor, PLB, VHF, satellite comms, and a strict check-in plan with family. More thought-out than it looks. 20:00 Three Kings Solo Launched from Taputaputa, blue cod on the reef, a possible Pacific bluefin while diving — and a great white in the same spot two hours after he left. 30:00 Fiordland — A Month Alone Four weeks solo, no comms, sleeping on the boat or ashore, eating almost entirely what he caught. 40:00 The Hokitika Trench & Chasing Bluefin 35km offshore in winter, hammock on the boat, 400lb leader — and a very Tasman answer to what happens if a 150kg fish actually eats. 50:00 Rapid Fire + Listener Questions Handline over rod and reel. Bait. Bucket list: big Pacific bluefin solo on the 3.6m.
