Live for FREE at anchor in Greece – no dock fees, no marina bills, just pure cruising life on our FP Astrea 42. In this episode, we show you exactly how we anchor in a hidden sheltered bay, navigate shallow water with Garmin GPS and sonar, and settle into a perfect free anchorage for the week. From anchoring technique and scope calculations to reading depth under the boat and avoiding rocks, this is real sailboat cruising and liveaboard life in the Greek islands.
We also share daily life aboard: swimming from the boat, beach walks with Cleo, cleaning salt crystals off the hull, and accessibility upgrades like putting the swim platform in the water for easier entry. Plus, major system updates: we mount two new 150W solar panels on the deck using RV mounts and self‑tapper screws, adding 300W to our existing 400W total (now 700W) and pushing the boat toward neutral power use with Victron MPPTs and lithium batteries. We talk generator needs for air conditioning, microwave, dishwasher, and water heater, and what’s coming next as we prepare to move to Vilkó Bay for Sharon’s hospital review and possible generator news.
If you’re interested in free anchorages, sailing Greece, FP Fantasque / FP Astrea 42 cruising, boat maintenance, solar upgrades, and liveaboard power management, this video is packed with practical tips and real‑world cruising moments. Don’t forget to subscribe, hit like, and leave a comment with your favorite free anchorage in Greece or where you’d anchor next.

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.
