I Bought a Tiny Sailboat to Explore Scotland!

10% of profits from these videos are donated to marine conservation projects in Scotland 🌊 This is the very first video on my new (to me) 26ft Victoria from 1996. I’ll run through the boat buying process from start to finish, head off on the maiden voyage through the Scottish Isles then go on my very first solo sail! Over the next few months I’m hoping to share stories from the sea, with the hope of encouraging others to get outdoors, care for our environment and set off on their own adventures. 🍿 WATCH NEXT: COSTS OF LIVING ON A SAILBOAT: https://youtu.be/WRafLL63ewU?si=GCCMW-YP_aVBLhsp MY FIRST SOLO SAIL: https://youtu.be/AOeVM_hZEuI?si=pdIG6h6Md862Bmbh SHIPWRECK STORIES: https://youtu.be/FC2FycryeXg?si=nzLDLIs3uMVqQ8vG 1000KM OF SOLO BIKE-PACKING: https://youtu.be/lJDS4WUS-F0?si=TtEFNyPF9MtrHCD6 WE CYCLED THE LENGTH OF NEW ZEALAND: https://youtu.be/iEWj6Kcl_NM?si=77ggYVzpBmNQw_m8 EXTRA CONTENT ON PATREON: ⛵ Get access to exclusive uncut sailing videos, support my marine conservation mission, get behind-the-scenes footage and sneak peeks of upcoming adventures: https://www.patreon.com/c/_kayleighbrown MY OTHER SOCIALS: 📸 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/_kayleighbrown/ 📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@kayleighjeanbrown/ 🎥 FACEBOOK:  https://www.facebook.com/kayleighjeanbrown/ WITH THANKS: I wanted to say a huge thank you Wild Earth for their continued support.
