One SIMPLE BOAT PROJECT Done the WRONG WAY We did this wrong, and they say it’s best to learn from other people’s mistakes so settle in for a quick lesson on what not to do. This week we’re in Auckland, New Zealand doing some much-needed maintenance on our boom, getting our freshly reshaped mainsail back from Doyle, and heading out for a quick test sail. It’s not the glamorous part of boat life, but it’s essential. This is a sailing vlog documenting our sailing and boating adventures in New Zealand after we sailed across the Pacific Ocean as part of our sailing around the world series.

We're a small family living aboard our catamaran, SV Wanderlust, sailing to Harbors Unknown. Exploring the world, connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how great food can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. Seeking to balance the desire to explore and travel to beautiful, remote locations while leaving no footprint, minimizing the Hawthorne effect of the observers who change the environment she or he observes. We hope to inspire people and showcase the possibility of living an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment, all while keeping it real. Sharing the trials and tribulations of living off-grid, acknowledging the discomfort of detoxing from the modern world, finding pleasure in the subtleties of nature and joy in simplicity. Attempting to understand what makes the world tick and tock but also trying to gain a deeper comprehension of ourselves and identify what will satisfy that hunger for further exploration, for purpose. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world! Subscribe now to join our sailing adventure. Thank you for watching!
