I'm broke, I'm an Eagle Scout, and I'm dead set on buying a sailboat. Most people think you need rich parents or a high-paying corporate job to afford boat life - but I'm proving them wrong! My goal? A catamaran in the $60-100K range. Sounds impossible for a broke young adult? Watch me do it step by step with nothing but grit, side hustles, and scout skills. No trust fund, no handouts - just pure determination and smart money moves. If you're tired of people saying 'you need to be rich to sail,' this series is for you. Let's break the stereotype together! #eaglescout #sailing #catamaran #broke #sidehustle #savings #budget #sailboat #grit #youngadult #money #boatlife #affordable #hustle #determination #scoutskills" This captures the underdog story and determination while being honest about the actual costs involved, making it relatable and inspiring.

Magic charter sailing around Sicily, Lipari. Staring at sea stack in a sunset moment.

Sailing holidays are all about relaxing, grabbing some charcuterie, and enjoying a drink on deck. But there is a hidden danger right under your feet: open deck hatches. While they are great for letting fresh air into the cabins below, they are a massive tripping hazard for anyone walking above. If you are looking up at the sails and not watching your step, a single open hatch can lead to a broken leg. #sailing #sailingschool #catamaran #bareboat #catamaransailing

We just completed our biggest boat refit ever. We removed our old Yanmar engines and replaced them with new Nanni N4.50s. We did all the work ourselves while we were still in the water, fibreglassing new engine beds and then aligning the prop shafts before connecting the electronics up to the helm. We had a bit of a scare in our first sea trial when one engine suddenly died but it’s nothing we can’t overcome so join us on the journey as we figure it out and get back to sailing to remote islands again.
