Living the Island Life & Shipwreck Hunt (Ep. 116)

We're at Great Keppel Island, just south of the Tropic of Capricorn, exploring all this tropic island in the south of the great barrier reef has to offer! From the remnants of an old shipwreck, to turtle nests, to makeshift yacht clubs, and even celebrating Christmas by adding to a unique cruiser tree, there's never a dull moment. Join us this week for an action-packed adventure! Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more sailing adventures! ________________ Ahoy! We’re the James Family, a trio sailing around the globe and sharing our family-friendly adventures every week! Sam hails from New Zealand, while Cait is from the United States; we met in Cairns, Australia. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we eloped, and a year later, our family grew with the arrival of Charlie! In 2022, we took the leap to follow our dream, sold everything, and bought an old, unfinished aluminum catamaran. Now, we’re fixing her up as we explore the world.
