What?s it really like to live full-time on a 35ft sailboat? In this episode, we share the honest truth?what works, what doesn?t, and what life aboard Floh's Hallberg Rassy Rasmus 35 is actually like, day to day. After a full boat tour in Part One (https://youtu.be/a2BpUL649Ow), today we dive into the pros and cons of living on this small but salty home afloat. From off-grid systems to cozy quarters, we each reveal five things we love?and five things we?re not-so-crazy about?when it comes to the liveaboard lifestyle. If you?ve ever dreamed of setting sail full-time, wondered if a boat this size can really feel like home, or just want a deeper look at what cruising life looks like behind the pretty sunset shots?this one?s for you.

PAY PAL https://www.paypal.me/whitespotpirates **** Join me on an inspiring journey that began with buying and refitting my Reinke Super 10 sailboat called KARL. Facing the challenges of solo sailing as a female sailor, I navigated the highs and lows of single-handed sailing while tackling DIY boat repair projects, from engine fixes to full boat refits on a budget. My life aboard was a mix of adventure and reflection, shaping an independent woman?s story of resilience, personal growth, and embracing the sailing lifestyle. Along the way, I became an ocean conservation activist with In Mocean, stumbled across my dog Boga, and discovered the joys and challenges of sailing with a dog. Now, I?m exploring a new chapter, having jumped aboard my partner?s Hallberg Rassy Rasmus with Boga and his Australian Kelpie, Jango. Together, we face the unique dynamics and challenges of sailing as a couple, balancing off-grid life, sustainable sailing, and the demands of long-term cruising. If you?re interested in remote sailing adventures, authentic sailing stories, and the realities of living on a sailboat, this channel offers a glimpse into the world of DIY projects, the sailing lifestyle, and life?s transformative moments on the water. Follow along for inspiring stories that reflect on the beauty of sailing, personal growth, and chasing dreams?one wave at a time. And always remember: if I can do it, you can do it, too! ??
