Outside Watch - SV Skylark

Hi! We’re Chris and Jennifer. This is our story of how our life was turned completely upside down in just a matter of weeks! We are both commercial airline pilots for a major airline in Asia however, due to the covid-19 downturn, we have an unexpected amount of free time! A blessing in disguise in many ways, as suddenly we have found ourselves as full time liveaboard sailors!

We’re so excited to share and document this new (and a bit scary) time in our lives! Join us as we take to the sea and sail our Amel 54 across the world!
