Did moving onto a sailboat live up to the dream, or did the reality of dock life shatter the romance? After 365 days of living aboard our Catalina 30, SV Zanadu, we’re sharing the unfiltered truth about what year one is REALLY like. From major DIY boat projects—fixing storm-damaged fiberglass, replacing running rigging, recorking, and electrical overhauls—to navigating the Texas summer heat, managing clutter in a micro-space, and adapting to marina dynamics, we break down everything it takes to build a peaceful lifestyle on the water. If you’ve ever dreamed of downsizing, simplifying your life, or moving aboard a sailboat, this honest look at the mental shifts, physical work, and real-world logistics will help you decide if dock life is right for you. ⚓ WATCH NEXT / HELPFUL RESOURCES: • Watch our Solar System Installation: https://youtu.be/xOiP5stoigc • How I Replaced the Impeller on the Catalina 30: https://youtu.be/y8Xxr9eG6Oo • Essential Galley Upgrades for Small Space Living: https://youtu.be/DyAJQqG5hGQ • 12 Volt Lighting Upgrade: https://youtu.be/AoMiklax34o • Catalina 30 Battery Replacement: https://youtu.be/usGrNnyEAz0 • Catalina 30 Refit (Compilation): https://youtu.be/DUaQ2OYtN1s ☕ SUPPORT THE CHANNEL & OUR JOURNEY: If you find value in our videos and want to support our channel, consider leaving us a tip or buying us a beer!

My old CT56 sailing yacht has been sitting on the hard for more than a year, and it’s finally time to see what kind of condition she’s in. In this video, I head back to the boat, inspect everything after a year of sitting, and start the long process of getting her cleaned up and seaworthy again. There’s a lot of dirt, maintenance, repairs, and projects ahead—but I have a goal. I want to get this old girl back in the water and sail her south to the Caribbean this winter. This is the beginning of bringing the CT56 back to life and getting her ready for another adventure.

Could the Hunter 41 Deck Salon be one of the most comfortable liveaboard sailboats you can buy for a cruising couple? In this complete Hunter 41 DS sailboat tour and review, we take a close look at this surprisingly spacious 40-foot cruising sailboat, including its huge deck-salon interior, two-cabin layout, two heads, large galley, aft master cabin, cockpit, B&R rig, sailing performance, construction, engine options, and the features that make it such an interesting used sailboat for long-term cruising and living aboard. If you're searching for the best liveaboard sailboat, best sailboat for a cruising couple, a comfortable 40-foot sailboat, an affordable cruising sailboat, or simply wondering whether a Hunter sailboat is worth buying, this boat deserves a closer look. We also cover Hunter 41 Deck Salon problems, owner experiences, sailing performance, offshore capability, maintenance concerns, deck-salon window leaks, in-mast furling, keel and hull construction, and what to inspect when buying a used Hunter 41 DS. Whether you're planning coastal cruising, the Great Lakes, the ICW, Bahamas, Caribbean cruising, or looking for a comfortable sailboat to live aboard, this Practical Sailor boat tour will help you decide whether the Hunter 41 Deck Salon belongs on your shortlist. #Hunter41 #HunterSailboat #LiveaboardSailboat #SailboatTour #CruisingSailboat #UsedSailboats #PracticalSailor Practical Sailor is your trusted resource for reviews of sailboats and sailing gear. https://www.practical-sailor.com Chat with us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/PracticalSailor/
Why are leading boat builders choosing Quick Gyro at factory level? PG takes a closer look at the Sunseeker 55 and Saxdor 400 GTS, both offering Quick Gyro stabilisation as part of their factory specifications. For builders, the appeal is in the combination of performance and simplicity. Quick Gyro systems deliver the stabilisation force required with a compact footprint and air-cooled design, removing the need for additional water-cooling infrastructure such as sea strainers and heat exchangers. That means a simpler installation, fewer components, easier maintenance and reduced ongoing complexity, without compromising stabilisation performance. When respected international builders such as Sunseeker and Saxdor select Quick Gyro as a factory option, it reflects the confidence placed in the technology. Smaller footprint. Simpler installation. Serious stabilisation. @sunseeker_int @saxdoryachts @dchmarine @dchmarine_australia @quickgroup_official #GineicoMarine #QuickGyro #Sunseeker #Saxdor #Saxdor400GTS #GyroStabilizer #BoatStabilisation #MarineTechnology #MarineEquipment #YachtTechnology #BoatBuilding #MarineIndustry

Painting an 80-foot steel sailboat is a big job. Doing it while she's still floating in Southeast Alaska adds weather, tides and a whole lot of timing to the equation. With fall closing in and good painting days becoming harder to find, Scott finally gets a weather window to start bringing Alaskan Gypsy's faded red hull back to life. What starts as one manageable section turns into a race to prep and paint an entire side before the tide drops too far to stay at the dock. Alaskan Gypsy is an 80-foot, triple-masted steel motor sailer that we live aboard year-round in Alaska. After extensive shipyard work saved her badly corroded hull, we're continuing the long process of restoring, maintaining and living aboard this unique old vessel. In this video: steel boat maintenance, sanding and surface prep, two-part polyurethane paint, DIY boat restoration, working with Alaska weather, and one very close race against the tide.

We are jumping for joy this week! Making progress on voyage preparations (Georgia to Texas) and having success with some of last week’s failures. Thank you to our subscribers and viewers who offered helpful suggestions and thoughts regarding the issues on the Lofrans Falkon windlass that was featured in Hard & Wet EP232. Using a more sensitive caliper, Steve took several chain measurements and continued to confer with Lofrans. It was determined that the gypsy on the windlass should be replaced with one that is compatible with our existing 1/2" G4 chain. Just to be sure we don’t need any additional parts, we took the current gypsy off and lubed all the parts before it was reinstalled. In frustration of all the attempts to have our Garmin gWind instrument working, we ordered a completely new system. After testing out the new transducer, cable and Garmin GND 10 Black Box and using the old components with the new Black Box, we realized all original components except the Black Box had been working. The old Black Box has been replaced, and the gWind wind instrument now displays on all chartplotters. We spent a lot of time and resources on that DIY project. The good news is that all’s working, we have brand new spare parts, and we also gained a Garmin GNX 21 display unit capable of showing wind, depth and speed information. While in Savannah gathering video for our Patreon channel we caught a tugboat doing a 360 and the Georgia Queen; she’s the largest US riverboat in operation. There’re dolphins, dancing and jumping jacks in this episode, so take a look. Subscribers, thank you for always keeping the wind in our sails. Viewers, if you like what you see subscribe and come on aboard. We are on S/V Isabella a Super Mikado 56 manufactured in France by C.N.S.O. (Constructions Nautiques du Sud-Ouest). Isabella is a sailing ketch and is considered a 1990/2010 model. It has four private cabins, an engine room, salon, galley, and three heads with two separate shower stalls. The hull is fiberglass and is considered a bluewater cruiser. Isabella has an excellent capsize ratio of 1.68 and a very good comfort ratio of 42.19. She is equipped with Garmin / Raymarine electronics and has hydraulic steering. The naval architect was Michel Bigoin who also designed the largest sailboat in the world which was manufactured in 1976 and called Phocea. It was a 246-foot four masted steel schooner and was considered the largest private sailing yacht in the world until 2004.

In this video, we fix 20 years of neglected maintenance on our Yanmar Heat Exchanger and our water heater. We swapped the heat exchanger for a brand-new unit, costing us $ 2,000, because some $1 O-rings weren't replaced on time. When we swapped out the heating element in our water heater, we found a big surprise: buildup inside. We clean it out before installing the new 230V heating element.

Grab a copy of Be The Captain, 10% off Defender + 20% off PredictWind: https://bethecaptain.com/ Boat shows are notorious for pushing shiny new solutions to problems we didn't know we had, but hidden among the gimmicks are a few pieces of tech that genuinely move the needle for shorthanded cruisers. This year at the Cannes Yachting Festival, we saw something I've been waiting years for: foiling monohulls are finally hitting the cruising market. Grab a drink and join the replay as we sift through the most interesting, practical, and highly debatable gear from the docks. What We Break Down: The Foiling Monohull (Scow 6.5m & 12m): The racing scene has always influenced cruising, and the prototype cruising foil boats are finally here. We debate if this articulating tech is the future of sailing or a maintenance nightmare offshore. The $24k Lightning Debate: Dinnteco’s DDCE system is a massive investment. We discuss how this charge-dissipation device works to prevent upward streamers and if it genuinely belongs on a cruising mast to protect your electronics. BlueNav Smart Mooring: The winner of the Best Tech innovation. We look at this retractable push-button docking system and debate if it is the end of traditional boat handling or a massive safety upgrade. Windelo 50 Catamaran: An all-electric catamaran with a forward cockpit and sliding glass walls. I explain why I went in wanting to hate it, but ended up incredibly impressed by the airflow and layout. Fendsea (Fancy) Inflatables: These high-tech inflatable fenders offer internal storage and break down to nothing. Practical innovation or just a pricey cooler? Captain's Q&A: We dive into viewer questions, tackling the Morgan Out Island 41 vs. Island Packet hull designs, the legendary rig engineering on the Mason 43, fluid drives, and the realities of buying a 60-year-old Cheoy Lee. The goal isn't to bolt every new gadget onto the deck; it's to find the tools that actually make us safer, more self-sufficient, and better equipped for the realities of the ocean.

Welcome back to SVDreamChaser! In this episode of Uncovering the Extraordinary, we take on a custom DIY build designed to make mobile workshop setups and outdoor hobbies easier than ever. We're building a versatile 4' x 2' heavy-duty mobile cart specifically tailored for coffee roasting, but easily adaptable for grilling accessories, power tools, or general outdoor cooking. Featuring a dual-tier countertop design, this workstation drops the roaster surface down to an ergonomic working height while preserving full standing counter space for prepping, cooling, and storage. To make the build seamless, we leverage AI technology to generate a zero-waste, precise lumber cut list before heading into the shop. Watch as we assemble the framing, mount high-capacity 14-gallon storage totes, fit heavy-duty casters for effortless transport from the garage to the lanai, and finish the exterior with modern slat paneling.

A friend told me I would be better off with a bow thruster...check out this video when I cut two massive holes in my Sun Magic 44 sailboat. On purpose. In this episode I will find the correct spot for my bow thruster and after careful measurements I will drill some holes...scary, maybe a little bit.
Hi and welcome aboard @SailingAstridTheWombat We are Gav and Shezz and two and a half years ago we bought our Beneteau Oceanis 430 sailboat with absolutely no sailing experience and jumped straight into the deep end of liveaboard sailing. Our very first passage was just over 700 nautical miles, launching us headfirst into the world of bluewater cruising, learning to sail, and real life at sea. Since that moment, we’ve been fully immersed in boat life, documenting the journey of turning a production cruising sailboat into a capable, self-sufficient home for full-time liveaboard life. From major sailboat upgrades and off-grid power systems to everyday maintenance and skills building, we have been learning what it truly takes to own, sail, and live on a boat while preparing to sail around the world. We have now left the dock and our adventure has begun so hit subscribe to come along on the journey of a lifetime. If you’re into sailing adventures, beginner sailing, sailboat ownership, cruising lifestyle, and traveling the world by sailboat, our journey is all about real-time learning, ocean freedom, and realising our dream of world cruising under sail...Let's go! Island Head Creek was meant to be a safe place to wait out the weather… but this turned into the hardest week of our sailing adventure so far. After leaving Rosslyn Bay and continuing our liveaboard sailing journey north along the Queensland coast, we arrive at Island Head Creek expecting some much-needed protection from the weather. Instead, we’re faced with 30+ knot winds, a constantly rolling sailboat, brutal seasickness, sleepless nights and serious power problems. Being stuck on a boat in bad weather is one thing, but when your Victron Energy system isn’t working properly, your batteries are running low and then your generator breaks down, things suddenly become a whole lot more stressful. With the boat rolling relentlessly at anchor, even simple jobs become difficult — and at times, we’re both struggling with seasickness and barely able to function. This episode gives you a very real look at the reality of living aboard a sailboat and what happens when the dream of cruising and travelling the world by sailboat isn’t quite as glamorous as it looks. We troubleshoot our electrical and battery problems, speak with the electricians who installed our system, attempt to use the generator to restore our batteries, and deal with the uncertainty of being stuck in an exposed anchorage while the weather continues to hammer us. For us, this was a huge learning experience about liveaboard sailing, boat systems, anchoring in bad weather, managing power on a sailboat and dealing with seasickness offshore. If you're interested in sailing around the world, liveaboard sailing, cruising, sailboats, boat life, sailing adventures, beginner sailing, sailboat ownership, offshore sailing or travelling the world by boat, we hope this episode gives you an honest insight into what life on the water can really be like. There are incredible highs that come with sailing — but there are also some pretty serious lows. And this week at Island Head Creek was definitely one of them.

We speak with a couple about their real-world experience across five different boats. In this interview, we sit down at the marina to discuss the realities of boat ownership and the long-term commitment required to maintain a vessel. The owners share their specific journey through five yachts, detailing the maintenance, upgrades, and operational considerations that come with the territory. They specifically highlight their decision for the newest purchase, the Seawind 1160, explaining why it became a favourite for their needs. Whether you are considering a vessel for private use or looking to understand the mechanics of the sailing lifestyle, this conversation offers a practical perspective on what it takes to manage these boats successfully. We also capture some of the joy of twilight sailing, showcasing the reward of all that effort on the water.
https://www.vesselbook.com/ If you own a sailboat, sooner or later you’re going to need a marine mechanic, boatyard, marina, sailmaker, rigger, marine electrician, surveyor, or somebody to handle sailboat repair and maintenance. But how do you know who you can trust? Whether you’re researching how to fix a sailboat, sailboat bottom paint, boat electrical systems, marine diesel repair, fiberglass repair, rigging work, or general sailboat maintenance, finding the right marine professional can be just as important as knowing how the repair itself should be done. In this video, we’re talking about the trust problem in the boating industry and how boat owners can work together to change it. VesselBook lets boaters add and rate marine vendors, share real experiences, and help other owners find reputable boat repair companies and marine services. We’re also launching Help Build VesselBook, giving boat owners a direct voice in how reviews, vendor ratings, new features, and the platform itself are developed. If you own a sailboat, powerboat, cruising boat, or liveaboard, come help us build a better resource for boat owners. #Sailing #Sailboat #BoatRepair #SailboatRepair #BoatMaintenance #MarineMechanic #MarineElectrician #Boatyard #BottomPaint #SailboatMaintenance #BoatOwnership #VesselBook Lady K Swag!!!

Marine engine maintenance is crucial for peace of mind while cruising. The sacrificial anode acts as a vital shield against galvanic corrosion, protecting the engine block by corroding itself first. Seeing the condition of an anode is a revealing moment; if it disappears completely, the engine becomes the next target for destructive corrosion. This demonstration highlights exactly where to locate this component on a Nanni N4.65 marine diesel and how to identify when it has served its purpose and needs a replacement to keep the engine safe.

Six months into my stay in the bay, it was finally time to take Galopin out of the water because the hull growth had attached itself with a vengeance. Hauling the boat up onto the beach is always a nerve-wracking experience, and the sound of the cart balancing Galopin is enough to make you cringe. Once ashore, we assessed the situation. The most agresive invasion of barnacles caked the hull like cement. The crew faced a grueling four days of sanding to remove mutant shells left cemented because of poor antifouling product I was sold previously. Although I felt bad for the guys struggling with the job because they were sold inadequate antifouling, I paid them something and they covered new primer and antifouling to ensure the job would be done right.While the sanding continued, I relied on local legends like Mam, a 64-year-old "tranquil man" and true sailor who knows his stuff to climb the mast to install a new wind transducer and cable. And Pape, who scavenged perfect rope from a downed mast to replace my fading furler line. The team worked hard enough that I expected to be back in the water by sunset, but just as we were ready to start the engine, disaster struck. The ignition switch failed completely, turning the moment into pure frustration and what felt like a scripted movie scene. With the boat stuck and the engine dead, I had to call in Arona, the master mechanic and one of the most loved characters in my story, to save the day. This episode captures the raw reality of boat maintenance, the value of skilled local help, and the unpredictable drama of keeping an old sailboat running. 00:00 Intro 00:43 Got sh#t done 01:39 Sail packing 01:58 Roll us up 02:29 Slow & screechy 03:12 Shell shocked 04:15 Slow moving 04:53 Wind whisperer 05:41 L'homme tranquille 06:17 The messenger 07:05 Foul no more 07:20 Real vs fake 07:45 Start my engine 08:21 Arona magic 09:00 Cheap parts suck 09:39 Next week Some say it’s The Best Sailing Channel on YouTube!

HIGHLAND BEAUTY is a fine example from the last days of British timber motor yacht building, when the Desty family's aptly named Rampart Boatbuilding Company was resolutely still creating up to three traditionally built but contemporary-styled vessels per year; upholding wooden boatbuilding’s honour against the march of plastic. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/802/HIGHLAND%20BEAUTY HIGHLAND BEAUTY has had few owners since launching in 1975; the first was replacing a fibreglass boat. They’ve all cared for her well and enjoyed the multiple, well thought out spaces she offers for both intimacy and privacy; in particular, her deep aft cockpit - not common in motor yachts of this size. In the previous ownership of a highly experienced seaman, HIGHLAND BEAUTY was sensibly and tastefully upgraded, and in present ownership on the River Thames the maintenance regime has stepped up a notch with the major refits described below.
Is the Com-Pac 23 one of the best trailerable solo sailboats—or a beautiful relationship with a growing repair list? In the premiere of Love on the Rocks, Bill calls our 50,000-watt maritime counseling program about his beloved Com-Pac 23. We dig into long-term ownership, maintenance costs, leaking portlights, limited headroom, teak upkeep, trailering, sailing performance and the upgrades that keep owners spending more time working than sailing. If you’re considering a used Com-Pac 23, comparing affordable pocket cruisers or searching for a capable small sailboat for solo sailing, this is the practical boat review disguised as talk radio. We’ll uncover the problems, weigh pleasure against upkeep—and then you make the call. Join the fleet.

While waiting for high tide to depart the marina (finally), I decided to service, flush and test the dinghy (Mr. Patches) motor, a 2023 tohatsu 15hp 4 stroke! Of course, issues took me many hours to fix. #boatlife #boatmaintenance #sliceoflife #SailingtheGalaxSea #dinghy
In this episode, I reveal how I added hiking straps to my P-16 sailing dinghy for under $25. I purchased two custom fabricated 54" long x 2" wide cargo straps from RatchetStrapsUSA (www.ratchetstraps.com) for $8 each. Then I used a spool of para coord ($9 on Amazon) to secure the straps to the boat. With sets of eye straps secured to the floor of the cockpit, I was ready to go! Adding hiking straps to a planing hull dinghy is a great way to improve performance because you can take full advantage of your human ballast and keep the boat flatter as the breeze picks up.

Gremlins on board???? We’re starting to think so as two main DIY projects have yet to be completed. This week has been a bit trying to say the least. The gypsy on the Lofrans windlass has always skipped a little when bringing up the anchor. Over time it has gotten much worse. We think it is a mismatch between the size of the anchor chain, which is 1/2 inch, and the 12mm/13mm gypsy, the notched wheel on the windlass that engages with the anchor chain. Steve has been communicating with Lofrans to verify the correct size gypsy and chain. It is less expensive to replace the gypsy than to replace the chain. Once the skipping is resolved, anchoring will be more fluid and more enjoyable. Our riggers came back and installed a new cable to the gWind wind transducer atop the main mast. And...the gWind still doesn’t show up on our chartplotters (Garmin 8610xsv and Garmin 1242xsv). Why didn’t we have the rigger bring the wind instrument down with him after the new cable had been pulled through the mast. It would be easier to diagnose the issue with all components easily accessible on the boat. We have ordered a new gWind system which will also come with a new Garmin GND 10 Black Box Bridge. The GND 10 converts data between the Nexus Network and NMEA 2000 to provide compatibility between Nexus and Garmin products. Hopefully we will be able to successfully diagnose and solve the issue.

In this episode of the Little Auk build, I'm shaping a custom seat and backrest carved from a wood blank combining LVL beam with walnut accents. Rather than starting from a pre-made pattern, I show how I used a proportional scale to enlarge the original plans up to full size, so the seat shape matches the exact proportions the designer intended before any wood gets cut. From there, it's all about roughing out the form and carving it down with a right angle grinder, a tool that lets me remove material fast while still following the curves the body actually needs. I walk through why LVL makes a strong, stable core for a load-bearing seat, and how the walnut accents add both visual contrast and a bit of extra durability at the edges. If you're building your own strip or hybrid kayak and want a seat that's shaped for comfort rather than just bolted on as an afterthought, this one's for you. “If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.” Bob Emser As an advocate for backyard boat builders I offer a free 30 minute chat about your project.

Extra challenges moving our boat due to tight spaces, concerns about soft ground the the fear of the slippery Silic One antifouling. We need time to paint the underside of the keel.

Socotra is a remote island in the Arabian Sea, part of Yemen but closer to Somalia, and home to some of the strangest and most beautiful endemic species on the planet. Our main target: the legendary Dragon's Blood Tree, found nowhere else on Earth. The anchorage was rolly with constant swell, so we made the most of every moment on land. One morning we hiked the mountain directly above the harbour to catch sunrise — no crowds, no noise, just the light coming up over the land below. One of those simple moments that sticks with you long after the trip. After refuelling and reprovisioning in town, we prepared for the next leg: joining the IRTC (International Recommended Transit Corridor) to transit the Gulf of Aden — a heavily monitored route used by vessels to reduce piracy risk in the region.

Thinking about installing a boat watermaker? Before you buy a marine watermaker, there’s a lot more to understand than gallons per hour. In this video, we look at the cost of a sailboat watermaker, how much electricity a watermaker uses, watermaker installation considerations, freshwater flushing, watermaker maintenance, membrane replacement, filter costs, watermaker pickling and unpickling, and how long reverse-osmosis membranes actually last. We also explain where you can safely use a marine reverse osmosis watermaker, whether you should run a watermaker in a marina or harbor, why dirty seawater and oil can damage the system, and what to check when buying a used boat with an older watermaker already installed. Whether you're researching the best watermaker for a sailboat, comparing boat watermaker prices, planning an offshore cruising boat, living aboard, or wondering whether a watermaker is worth the money, this guide covers the real-world costs, maintenance, power requirements, replacement parts, and problems sailors and boat owners should understand before buying one. Practical Sailor is your trusted resource for reviews of sailboats and sailing gear. https://www.practical-sailor.com Chat with us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/PracticalSailor/
Hi and welcome aboard @SailingAstridTheWombat We are Gav and Shezz and two and a half years ago we bought our Beneteau Oceanis 430 sailboat with absolutely no sailing experience and jumped straight into the deep end of liveaboard sailing. Our very first passage was just over 700 nautical miles, launching us headfirst into the world of bluewater cruising, learning to sail, and real life at sea. Since that moment, we’ve been fully immersed in boat life, documenting the journey of turning a production cruising sailboat into a capable, self-sufficient home for full-time liveaboard life. From major sailboat upgrades and off-grid power systems to everyday maintenance and skills building, we have been learning what it truly takes to own, sail, and live on a boat while preparing to sail around the world. We have now left the dock and our adventure has begun so hit subscribe to come along on the journey of a lifetime. If you’re into sailing adventures, beginner sailing, sailboat ownership, cruising lifestyle, and traveling the world by sailboat, our journey is all about real-time learning, ocean freedom, and realising our dream of world cruising under sail...Let's go! Two months ago, we finally left the dock and began the adventure we had been dreaming about — living aboard our sailboat and sailing around the world. In this episode, we take a moment to reflect on our first two months of liveaboard sailing, the challenges we’ve faced, the lessons we’ve learned and what life at sea has really been like. Leaving the marina and setting off on a long-term sailing adventure sounds romantic, but the reality of liveaboard sailing is a mixture of incredible experiences, unpredictable weather, boat maintenance, navigation, repairs, decision-making and learning something new every day. Our first two months have taken us along the Queensland coast of Australia, visiting islands, finding anchorages, dealing with changing weather and discovering what it really takes to live aboard a sailboat while travelling from place to place. We've experienced some amazing sailing, but we've also had our share of challenges. We talk about what surprised us most about living on a sailboat, what has been harder than expected, what we've learned about cruising and whether life aboard a boat is actually what we imagined it would be. And, of course, no sailing adventure would be complete without boat problems! During our journey we ended up in Rosslyn Bay Marina after escaping bad weather from Great Keppel Island. While in the marina, we began experiencing problems with our boat's power and electrical system, eventually discovering that our inverter needed to be replaced. These are the realities of boat life and liveaboard cruising. Repairs, maintenance and unexpected expenses are all part of owning and living aboard a sailboat — but they're also part of the adventure. As we continue heading north through Queensland towards Cairns, the Great Barrier Reef, Torres Strait and eventually Indonesia, we're documenting the journey honestly — the beautiful moments, the difficult decisions, the boat repairs, the sailing adventures and everything in between. If you're interested in liveaboard sailing, sailing around the world, sailboat cruising, boat life, coastal cruising, sailing Australia, Queensland sailing, sailboat maintenance, beginner sailing, ocean sailing or travelling the world by sailboat, we'd love you to join us.

All rudders and safe and intact but wow what a show! Aaaaaaand of corse you know we are gonna talk about dinghy lights! "Show Me Your Dinghy" because lights save lives!

What is it like to pack your bags and move onto a canalboat in the Netherlands? For the next 3 days, I’m testing out canalboat life for real to see if this way of living really brings me joy or if it doesn't feel right. In this episode, I move aboard, give you a tour of the canalboat, take a rowboat out to explore the surrounding canals, and share my genuine thoughts on whether I could see myself living this way long term. What part of boat life are you most excited about? Let me know in the comments!

The series follows me, a woman in her mid-40s, as I try to understand what I’m looking for, explore very different historic boats and eventually find Anna Maria, a 21-metre Dutch tjalk built in 1913. After buying her, I have to learn how to handle this massive old canal boat and bring her through the narrow waterways, bridges and locks of the Netherlands to Germany. Anna Maria was converted into a liveaboard barge in the 1970s, and I originally believed I could keep much of her existing interior. But as more and more problems reveal themselves, that plan begins to unravel and I make the slightly terrifying decision to tear everything apart and take on an enormous DIY boat refit. From searching for a floating home to navigating Anna Maria and rebuilding her from the steel hull up, this is an honest, developing story of canal boat life: difficult decisions, new skills, unexpected setbacks and the small victories that keep me moving forward. ⇩ FOLLOW THE JOURNEY ⇩ ► INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagram.com/WhiteSpotPirates ► FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/WhiteSpotPirates ► WEBSITE: http://www.whitespotpirates.com ⇩ START AT THE BEGINNING OF MY SOLO-SAILING STORY ⇩ Before Anna Maria, there was Karl: the sailboat I bought, rebuilt and eventually sailed away on alone.

Catamaran or monohull? One of the biggest questions for anyone dreaming about cruising, and the answer isn't as simple as just comparing the purchase price. In this video, we break down the real costs of owning a catamaran versus a monohull, including buying, maintenance, repairs, storage, and the long-term expenses that can add up over time. Which one is actually more expensive to own? #Sailing #Catamaran #Monohull #SailingLife #Cruising #Sailboat #BoatCosts #Liveaboard #SailingTips
