Safety is at the forefront of our minds as we get ready to set sail on our adventure, especially as we’ve spent two full weekends at “Sea School” in St. Pete.

Living at the marina: Dock Life

Bought a Sailing Catamaran.. Now the work begins!!
Throughout this whole journey, from quitting our jobs to selling our house to buying a sailing catamaran, we’ve said something like this: we did (fill in the blank), but now the real work begins.

We headed to the Annapolis Boat Show to meet up with other YouTubers and to showcase some of our favorite brands on the boating scene.
