003: Boat Search for the Perfect Cruising Sailboat to Sail Around the World with the Family
July 16, 2017 by Mothership Adrift Travel and Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:05:03 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Plans are moving ahead.. but the boat buying is proving more difficult (and more expensive) than we ever thought. We’ve looked seriously at two boats, surveyed one and now we’ve just made an offer on a third. Woody has travelled all over to inspect potential boats but I get the feeling it isn’t as difficult as he makes out judging by the videos he’s been sending back! The season is in full flow now in the Mediterranean and if we don’t find one soon the summer will be over and the kids will be back at school.. and our plans will have to be put on hold.. yet again!

003: Boat Search for the Perfect Cruising Sailboat to Sail Around the World with the Family Locations
Mothership Adrift Travel and Sailing
We're a UK family who have saved over many years to live the dream of travelling the world with our kids. We sold our belongings, closed our business and rented our house to buy a 20 year old sailboat . We want to show the kids that there is a bigger world out there and to appreciate the simple things in life, things that you find in the sea, the woods, up mountains, along the beach , the sky and the stars. Our dream of cruising and exploring the world's oceans is matched with a desire to live a more off-grid and sustainable lifestyle. A background as RYA instructors, flotilla skippers and RNLI crew only partly prepared us for the challenges of a live-aboard life! From buying a boat to homeschooling the kids, from cooking on a budget to making money while we travel, from sailboat maintenance to visiting amazing places - join our journey and share in our world adventure, as well as the challenges of family life, through our series of video blogs.
