Ben, Tambi, and Molly are a family of 3 that sail the Bahamas aboard their Endeavour 32 sailboat. It hasn't always been that way though... far from it. Before they became sailors, they were living the traditional American life. 9-5 jobs, 2 nice cars, a hefty mortgage - and 1 out of every 52 weeks... there was a vacation. Things changed though, when Ben had the realization that every day felt exactly like the previous one. It was just like that movie "Groundhog Day"... Wake up, go to work, come home, eat dinner, watch TV, go to sleep, repeat, repeat, repeat. Time to shake things up! The Clardy family always did enjoy their temporary getaways to the islands when they would go on cruises. They loved the tropical climate, the clear water, the white sand, the palm trees. They wanted more of THAT, but how? A sailboat, THAT’S how! It was that idea that spurred this family to break out of their rut and go on a grand adventure to tropical destinations over the horizon. Do they know anything about sailing? ...nope. Did they inherit a boat load of money? ...definitely not. Minor details, BECAUSE... So far they’ve sold everything, moved out of their house, purchased a 38 year old sailboat, toured 1000 miles of Intracoastal Waterway, and experienced an unforgettable 6 month sailing adventure through the islands of the Bahamas. So, what’s next for this intrepid trio? Whatever happens - the cameras will be rolling and their salty adventures will be recorded so that you can share the experience as their Story unfolds. Tune in and enjoy the adventure. :) Thanks for watching!!
