(Podcast) From RV Life to Sailing: Have We Gone Crazy?

Written By Matt

Season 2 Episode 1.

We caught the bug: it was slow, it was surprising, it was sailing!

Going from land travel-life to buying a sailboat can be a real challenge — especially if you really don’t know what you’re doing. We go from complete landlubbers to the owners of a classic 1975 Wellington 47 ketch sailboat.

Let us share our journey with you as we check out boats and spend a lot of time “researching” on YouTube. We learn to sail with the American Sailing Association on a lake in Missouri. Then we learn about brokers and navigate the way ahead when you find “The One.” Our sailboat-buying experience was definitely challenging at times, but in the end we found the one for us!

This new season is going to be exciting, and we’re thrilled to start sharing this story with you! After listening, let us know what you think — have we lost our minds?

A few resources we found especially helpful on our new journey (not sponsored): the American Sailing Association, Good Old Boat Magazine, and Pier One Yacht Sales.

Kayaking, climbing, hiking, sailing, SUP, cooking, life is an adventure and one of my greatest joys is to bring my family and friends along.  Life is meant to be lived!!!
