Can you take a BREAK from the boat?
Can you take a BREAK from the boat when you live aboard a Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 in the Ionian Sea, Greece? In this episode of Sailing Clewless Crew, we’re back on the move between anchorages, dealing with boat maintenance, marine electrical work, VHF and AIS programming, and the usual never-ending list of jobs that come with liveaboard sailing.
From Meganissi and Vliho Bay to the practical reality of getting a DC to DC charger fitted on the other engine, this is a real look at life aboard a catamaran in Greece. We also deal with provisioning, admin, anchoring, and keeping the boat running properly while trying to enjoy the beautiful cruising grounds around us.
If you enjoy sailing Greece, catamaran cruising, liveaboard life, boat repairs, marine electrics, solar power on a boat, and honest cruising content, this video is for you. It’s another mix of work, movement, and trying to find a little breathing room from the boat without ever really leaving it behind.

Sailing Clewless Crew
Midlife sailing adventure | Retired couple living on a catamaran | Full-time liveaboard sailing We’re John & Sha, a retired couple in our mid-50s preparing to move aboard our catamaran this April. After retiring from full-time careers, we’re transitioning to full-time liveaboard sailing and documenting the entire journey. Right now, we’re sailing the Ionian in Greece. Stunning anchorages, pretty fishing villages and gusty winds are all on the agenda here. In the near future we will head off to Albania and Montenegro. From catamaran living and liveaboard life to sailing adventures, slow travel, and going where the wind takes us — this is our next chapter. If you’re interested in sailing in your 50s, retirement adventures, boat life preparation, or leaving the 9–5 for freedom and travel, subscribe and join us.
