Buying our Aluminum Catamaran | What we looked at for kids | Sailing with the James's (Ep 78)

Are you looking to purchase a boat for you and your family? We were in your shoes not too long ago. It is an a fun and exciting time, getting to see lot of boats, talk to owners, meet brokers and get to see lots of different designs and layout - but it can sometimes feel overwhelming. We are sharing what we specifically looked for in a boat in regards to having a baby onboard and what specifically we like and love about this boat. Some of the topics we are touching on are: the sugar scoops, the child netting, the railings, boundaries that we have in place for our young toddler, Charlie. Come along and let us know what you think and we hope this episode is useful for other families who are looking at buying or currently in the process! Happy Sailing! ________________ Welcome to Sailing with the James's! We are the James Family; we purchased an unfinished aluminum catamaran and are fixing her up as we sail around the world.
