Finding a Safe Place to Leave Our Sailboat
One last move before we leave. We brought Big Lost through the pass into Phaeton Bay, Tahiti, where our catamaran will stay while we head back to the U.S. For now, she’s settled at anchor. ⛵️ #SailingLife #LiveaboardLife #CatamaranSailing #Tahiti #Shorts
You Don’t Need the Life Everyone Expects

Things Our Kids Think Are Completely Normal
When you grow up living on a sailboat, adventure starts to feel pretty ordinary.

We’re a family of four living aboard our catamaran and sa...
We Finally Stopped Rushing… Life Aboard Got Quiet
After nearly two years of always moving toward the next island, the next passage, the next boat project, or the next deadline… life aboard Big Lost finally got quiet. After a week of almost everyone onboard being sick, slowing down was exactly what we needed. Our cruising friends are starting to sc...
When Sailing Became Our Normal
There was a time sailing across the ocean with our kids felt anything but normal. Now the sails go up, the kids head for the trampoline, and we just keep moving. ⛵️ Life aboard Big Lost in French Polynesia. #SailingFamily #SailingLife #LiveaboardLife #FamilyAdventure #SailingBigLost
Just an Ordinary Day Living on a Sailboat
It was a pretty ordinary day. Dinghy rides, games, projects, friends on paddleboards… and Moorea in the distance. I really like our ordinary. Family life aboard Big Lost in French Polynesia. #SailingBigLost #SailingFamily #BoatLife #FrenchPolynesia #Sailing
Tahiti to Moorea | 24 Nautical Miles

Sleepovers Look Different When You Live on a Boat
Sleepovers look a little different when your neighborhood is an anchorage. ⛵ A dinghy full of friends pulls up, Maddie hops aboard, and they're off for a girls' sleepover in Tahiti. Not a bad way to grow up. #SailingFamily #BoatLife #LiveaboardFamily
Some Days Really Are This Simple
Not every day living on a sailboat is repairs, weather, or figuring out what broke next. Some days are just calm water, a beautiful anchorage, and a reminder to enjoy where you are. Life aboard Big Lost in French Polynesia. ⛵️🌊 ⚓ Gear we use aboard Big Lost: sailingbiglost.com #sailinglife #sail...
This is How You a learn to Live Out Here
Living on a sailboat means learning how to take care of the life that takes care of you. From cleaning props and servicing halyards to winches, engines, and trips to the alternator shop, there’s always something that needs doing—and our kids learn by doing it right alongside us. This is what full-...
We finally made it to Teahupo’o
We’d heard so much about Teahupo’o, but there’s something pretty special about finally standing there and seeing it for yourself. 🌊 One of the world’s most iconic surf spots — and a place we were so excited to experience while exploring Tahiti as a family. Follow along as we explore the world, one...
We Almost Left Tahiti… I’m Glad We Stayed
We were almost ready to leave Tahiti when our friends on SV Palarran pulled into the anchorage—and suddenly, we had a very good reason to stay. Cruising friendships are unpredictable. You never really know when your paths will cross again, so when the kids’ friends showed up, we changed our plans a...
This Is What We Stayed in Tahiti For
We almost left Tahiti, but changing our plans gave us something we didn’t realize we needed — a little more time with friends. Cruising friendships can be short. Boats arrive, plans change, and eventually everyone sails in different directions. So sometimes a few extra days together are worth stayi...
Maybe Today Doesn’t Need to Be Productive
Maybe today doesn’t need to be productive. A quiet Sunday on the beach in French Polynesia. Sometimes that’s enough. #SailingBigLost #SailingFamily #FrenchPolynesia
Childhood Looks a Little Different Out Here
School. Chores. Sibling antics. Video games. And then there’s handling the dinghy, climbing the mast, and learning to take care of each other. They’re still just kids. They’re just growing up a little differently. We chose this sailing life because we wanted more time together—and watching our ki...
When Did This Stop Feeling Unusual?
At some point, the unusual became our everyday life. Laundry on the lifelines. Dinghy rides for errands. Homeschool wherever we happen to be. Kids growing up on the water. When we left Idaho, none of this felt normal. Now it’s simply life aboard Big Lost. What’s something in your life that once f...
We Wanted a Different Life… This Is Where It Took Us
We left Idaho looking for a different life. We had no idea that decision would eventually take our family across the Caribbean, through the Panama Canal, across the Pacific Ocean and all the way to French Polynesia. This week, the weather kept us sitting still in Tahiti—and for once, that gave us a...
We Were Supposed to Sail to Moorea Today…
We were supposed to sail to Moorea today. Then our friends sent us video from the anchorage—40-knot gusts and boats dragging anchor. Meanwhile, just a few miles away in Tahiti, the water was completely flat. So we stayed. Sometimes the best sailing decision is not to sail. ⛵ Follow Sailing Big ...
Maybe This Is the Point of Choosing a Different Life
We didn’t choose this life because it was easier. We chose it for more time together, more responsibility, more adventure, and the chance to build a life that actually feels like ours. What would you want more of in your life? #SailingFamily #IntentionalLiving #FamilyAdventure #SailingBigLost
Self-Reliance Doesn’t Mean Doing It Alone
Living on a sailboat teaches you to figure things out for yourself. It also teaches you how important community really is.

Maybe the Dream Was Never About Sailing
Maybe the dream was never about escaping real life. Maybe it was about having more say in how we lived it. The grocery runs, broken alternators, school days and everyday responsibilities didn't disappear when we moved onto a sailboat. We just chose a different place to build our life. A lif...
