Episode 2: Tour Our Moody 45 DS: Inside Our Liveaboard Sailboat

It was our dream to buy a sailboat in the Mediterranean and sail it half the year, which is exactly what we are doing! In this special episode, we offer a full tour of our home on the water: the Moody 45 DS. From the spacious deck salon to the performance under sail, this boat is designed for serious cruising with style. We walk through the helm, galley, cabins, and cockpit, explaining what sold us on this model and what we've learned after months aboard. You'll hear about layout pros, gear we upgraded, and features we can't live without. Whether you're dreaming of a liveaboard lifestyle or just love boat porn, you'll enjoy this detailed walkthrough. Plus, we include thoughts on handling, anchoring, and comfort at sea. A must-watch for sailors considering a deck saloon design or anyone curious about floating homes.

Buying a used boat located in another country, definitely gave me some insight as to how I tick when it comes to certainty versus ambiguity. I am a great fan of the adage "Leap and the Net Will Appear." Sometimes when there are a lot of unknowns, but the potential upside to the experience is so important, I just pray a little and take the leap, hoping that a net will magically appear to keep me out of harm's way. When buying a boat, the term "certainty" goes out the window. There's no real way to know if the boat will have problems, any more than you can know when you're buying a car. Buying a used boat is even more of a challenge. What really helped is we knew exactly what we wanted. We wanted a boat that had as much living space as possible at the water level, like a catamaran, but we wanted it to sail like a monohull. And boy were we lucky. We love our Moody 45 DS and you'll see Corey's enthusiasm as to why. 00:00 Introduction to the Boat 00:45 Deck Layout and Features 01:31 Interior Cabin, Galley Walk through 03:55 State rooms and heads 05:46 Exterior walk through
