MUSIC by Epidemic Sound We have made the transition from full-time software professionals from the SF Bay Area to liveaboard sailing explorers who always keep one eye on the weather and our hearts in a song. Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We are working with Outremer in France (with the help of Google Translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it's not a race or speed test, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we're learning living without Amazon, (but with Starlink), and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our YouTube vlogging skills. Our goal isn't to make our life a movie, it's to give back to what others have shared with us.

Holly and Stephane are formerly from the San Francisco Bay Area but have a home in Tahoe. Our 'someday' plan was to sell our belongings, buy a boat, and, with reckless abandon, sail away to visit distant lands, which we did starting in 2020. You can follow our transition and journey in our candid podcast, Covert Castaway, wherever you listen. You can also follow every stop we've made with pictures and blogs and stream our podcast directly on our website. ================================= #sailing #bahamassailing #catamaranlife #oceanadventure #outremer #sailing #catamaran #outremer #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #stayhealthy #learning #vlog #podcast #live #motivation #travel #nomad #boattour #sailingadventure #bucketlist #adventure #nomad #retirement #adventureawaits #ocean #learning #youtubecommunity #youtubelife #vlog #youtubechannel #performance #weather #SwN&x% © Sailing AWEN


After sailing to Bira on the Indonesian Island of Sulawesi, we explore the world of the Bugis people, once fearsome pirates and the origin of bogeyman myths, now famous worldwide for their amazing skills handcrafting massive traditional wooden ships The Bugis are the predominate ethnic group on southern peninsula of the Indonesian island of Sulawesi and are one of the most skilled and well known sea-faring people in Southeast Asia. Back in the Seventeen Hundreds the scary bogeyman was no myth but very, very real murdering plundering, pillaging pirates creating havoc along the spice routes plied by ships of the Dutch and English colonial companies. "Beware of the bogeyman" was a phrase used to motivate sailors of these colonial traders to be watchful and ever alert. These bogeymen, the Bugis, weren't imaginary ghosts but rather a very real, dangerous threat to ship and crew. The modern day Bugis are no longer fearsome pirates but are still master mariners and skilled ship builders almost totally responsible for Indonesia having the largest fleet of timber cargo ships in the world. In addition to that, there is now an also impressive fleet of traditionally constructed timber sail and motor boats catering for the exploding adventure tourism and live aboard dive markets. Visiting this hub of traditional wooden ship building had been on our bucket list for a very long time and fully lived up to our anticipation.
