Are YOU FIT ENOUGH (to Live on a Sailboat)? | Casting Off with Followtheboat 03
Our “Casting Off” video podcasts are a no-holds-barred and unedited look at sailing and travel. They are our way of keeping up with YOU in as close to real-time as possible.
This week we continue with more boating banter and balderdash. We talk about what’s happening right now and answer your comments on the most recent followtheboat episodes. Or anything else that takes our fancy.

We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx
