The biggest myth keeping people from sailing? That it's only for the wealthy! Here's the truth: you can get on the water for just a few thousand dollars - that's it. Weekend sailing doesn't require a yacht or six figures. And if you want to live aboard full-time? You can find sailboats for the price of a car, sometimes even cheaper! It's not about having a mega yacht - there are plenty of affordable monohulls and catamarans out there. The real question is: how much work and maintenance are you willing to put in? Don't let money myths keep you from the sailing life you want! #sailing #sailboat #liveaboard #budget #affordable #ocean #yacht #boatlife #sailing101 #weekendsailing #myths #getstarted" This description breaks down the cost barriers while being encouraging and practical about what's actually needed to start sailing.

Tunisia bound aboard our sailboat Kaia 🇹🇳 ⛵️ Waiting for the right weather window, we consider factors such as wind patterns and sea states to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey. As we set off from Sardinia, we bid farewell to it’s stunning coastline dotted with rugged cliffs and azure waters. We sail southward, into the immense open sea, with only the sound of the wind and waves for company. 48hours of non-stop sailing lays ahead! Navigating the Mediterranean waters requires careful navigation and seamanship. We keep a lookout for other vessels as we sail under the moonlight. It’s difficult to explain the feeling of freedom as our boat glides through the endless expanse of blue. We approach the coastline of Tunisia, marvelling at the sight of the ancient ruins and bustling ports. After two days of sailing, arriving in Monastir marks the culmination of our voyage (our longest sail yet). We dock the boat and can’t wait to step ashore and discover the rich and vibrant culture of Tunisian culture, our new home for the next few months!
