What Happens When You Sail 50 Miles and Discover a Hidden GEM?

Sailing 50 Miles and Discovering a HIDDEN GEM We are FINALLY back out sailing on the ocean after 5 long months. Our family sails to Great Barrier Island on our catamaran and hike to find a swing bridge with a tree house and STUNNING views. A low pressure system hits Auckland and we are right in the middle. To top it off, our generator decides to add to our stress! #sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat We are a suburban blended family that has raised our 3 older children and now want to travel the world. After planning and saving for the past 6 years, we are now embracing our dream of sailing around the world on our Leopard 45 sailing catamaran. Follow our journey as we Circumnavigate the Globe in 3-4 years on a budget of $4,800/month (food, communication, fuel, insurance, transportation, mooring/marina & fun). We left the USA in October 2023 and plan to visit 26 countries on 5 different continents all while worldschooling a budding teen in our off grid tiny house. 🏆 Looking for boating spreadsheets, inside info or wanna help keep the dream alive?
