Just a couple of sailors trying to stay afloat and filming along the way! With no jobs and no plan, we live every day like it’s Saturday. ⛵️
Originally from Portland, Oregon, and San Diego, California, we sold all our belongings in exchange for a life on the water. Now, we are slowly circumnavigating! With backgrounds in science and engineering, we have a knack for technology and self-repairs. Our vlogs are casual, real-time videos that feature us enjoying and constantly trying to improve upon our 2017 Lagoon 42.
