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.

Recently we worked with the Irish Sailing Association at their Youth Pathway event held at Ballyholme Yacht Club. The event was one of the largest we have covered yet with racing over 5 fleets and 3 race courses. Fleets included Toppers, Optimists, Laser 4.7s, Laser Radials and 420s. As the ISA are currently working on building their social media channels, we decided that opting for several short videos would be most suited to their needs. We decided that filming would only be needed for one day, to allow us to get the content we required. We produced an overall video to release first, along with a short teaser for Instagram. We then worked and made a short 40-60 second video for each class. We also have the option to use the content to promote future events for the ISA

Steve turned off the tractor for an afternoon to talk about building the very first pair of Kindred skis. Steve is a skilled storyteller. He seems to know exactly when to pause, when to exaggerate, and exactly when to tell a joke. This ability to draw people in and make them laugh is especially useful in the hospitality industry. You see, Steve and his wife Carolyn run Two Eagles Lodge Bed and Breakfast just South of us in Union Bay. Like many home-based-businesses owners, this couple does it all. Carolyn masterfully orchestrates the business and is logistics manager of the steady rotation of guests while Steve is maintenance man and groundskeeper. When it comes to guest experiences this is where Steve’s hospitable nature and gift for storytelling shines. Who doesn’t want a host who keeps the mood light, and primes you for making memories by recalling his own adventures? If you need more proof of what us locals already know: that you’d be wise to stay at Two Eagles (once things get back to normal...) check out the miles-long list of accolades on their website. From fresh eggs at breakfast, to sharing local’s knowledge about places to explore, to evenings spent on the ocean-view porch around a crackling fire punctuated by Steve’s stories - these guys make their guests feel truly at home, and have awards to prove it. We’re really thankful for the support Steve has shown our business, from commissioning that first pair of skis to volunteering his time and equipment to help us move our workshop twice over the past 10 years! We're fortunate to have him skiing around on his Kindreds knowing he tells their story - with grinning enthusiasm - to anyone who asks.
