Our Bank Account After 5 Years of Cruising & a Refit (MJ Sailing - EP 36)
November 07, 2017 by MJ Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:19:18 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
A big question for cruisers out on the water is ‘How do you afford to do this’.
We’ve gone over in previous videos on how we saved up our money to get out of the rat race, but now that we’ve been out for 5 years, the next question is, ‘Where has that money gone?’.
In this video we talk about our monthly spending for the 30 or so months while we were actively cruising, and also focus on the 27 months we’ve been in Florida refitting our newest boat.
How much have we put into Elements of Life? How much is left in our bank account since we’ve done so? What are we going to do for money going ahead in the future?!
Follow along as we answer all these questions, and PLEASE let us know of any more that you have for us!
Take a look at our video on how we saved up to go sailing:
And our Q&A video abou the boat and future plans:

Sailing the world to see the world! We're a couple of high school sweethearts in our late 30's that have been on the move for 9 years; creating videos of the ups, the downs, our triumphs and our trials. After circumnavigating the North Atlantic in our last boat Serendipity, (1989 Sabre Targa 34), we took on a 2 year complete refit of our new boat Elements of Life - a custom aluminum 37' monohull. After sailing her to the Arctic, we sold her in 2020 to begin our newest project of building a 42 ft catamaran.
