Embracing a Life on the Waves: Sailing Full-Time in the Florida Keys
The family’s decision to sell their house, quit their jobs and embark on a sailing journey full-time marks a major milestone. Their previous boat was a beloved Catalina 42, which they still fondly remember.
Transforming Lifestyle for Adventurous Experiences
The shift from a conventional lifestyle to living on the boat has brought immense joy. The family, now with their adorable daughter Isabella, cherishes every moment of this transformative journey.
An Eventful Weather Experience in Florida Keys
The beauty of the sea isn’t without its challenges. A fierce storm with over 7 inches of rain, gusts, and close lightning strikes during their sailing adventure, prompting concern for their safety.
Musical Choices during Stormy Weather
Despite the storm, the family’s spirit remains high with humor and music. They consider playing various songs such as ‘Riders on the Storm,’ ‘Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head,’ and ‘Purple Rain’ by Prince or ‘The Rain Song’ by Led Zeppelin.
A Delightful culinary Experience
Even in the middle of the sea, they find joy in shared humor and conversation. Steve teasingly offers balls of meat for Karen to eat, a playful moment enhancing their adventure.
Safety Precautions during Sailing
For their safety, they always wear protective gear, including helmets certified by the HJC brand, GoPro cameras, Sena communicators, gloves, and special motorcycle boots. Karen has a jacket with spine, shoulder, and elbow protectors, while Steve has one with spine and front protection.
Navigating the Challenging Florida Keys
Visiting Key West highlights the challenges of parking, yet they manage with resourcefulness. They replace their motorcycle helmets’ visors to improve visibility and comfort during rides.
Exploring Underwater World
The family takes the opportunity to snorkel, albeit with mixed results. They encounter seagrass floating in the water and experience strong currents which affect visibility.
Lingering Issues with Their Car
Their car remains at the mechanic’s for repair, awaiting a new fuse box. Despite taking a motorcycle for temporary use, logistical challenges arise due to limited capacity for groceries.
Adapting to Island Life with Public Transportation
In the absence of their car, they resort to using public transport like buses and Uber. Initially experiencing miscommunication leading to extra expenses for rides, they learn the bus system for grocery shopping.
Relaxation Time on Deck
Amidst their adventures and challenges, moments of peace are essential. They enjoy sunbathing on the deck, cherishing quiet moments.
To sum up, this episode is a testament to embracing adventure and adapting to new lifestyle changes. Through every challenge – from handling storms and mechanical issues to learning public transportation in the Keys, they maintain their spirits high and relish each moment of their sailing journey.
Call to Action

Thank you so much subscribers! Ya'll rock! ❤️
We're still waiting for our car to be repaired and are using the Hayabusa motorcycle as our transportation. Riding in protective gear we cruised down to Key West for the day. Since Steve couldn't wear sunglasses under his visor and Karen's visor had a lot of crazing, we ordered a tinted visor for Steve and a clear one for Karen. There has been a lot of great wildlife around and hope you enjoy seeing them as much as we do.
A rather close thunderstorm caused over seven inches of rain to accumulate in less than 24 hours. The lightning strikes were quite frequent and very close. Luckily no strikes on either of Isabella's masts, whew!
As the water temperature increases, snorkeling is becoming more fun. The day we went the water looked extremely clear, but when we started snorkeling it was cloudier than anticipated and there was a lot of seagrass floating around. It was clear enough to see several small fish and conchs.

Sailing Intermission
Featuring the sailboat Isabella, a Super Mikado 56 made by the French shipyard CNSO. Sailing, partying, dancing, cooking, and sometimes pushing the limits. This sailboat had been neglected for some time when she was purchased. Lots of cleaning, sanding, refinishing, new lines, refrigerator, pumps, water heater parts, whole boat water filters, bow thruster, lighting, fuel filters, instruments, air conditioning, etc.... Some of the fun with refitting a sailboat is to be able to do economical but quality improvements. Elbow grease saves a lot of money, watching for sales, knowing when substitutions can be made that will last, and of course enjoying the final product. We sail, fish (haha), dance, fly the drone, sometimes wear bikinis, DIY, ride the motorcycle, listen to great music, and enjoy life. Older sailors don't have a clew when to quit; they just keep lubing their winches.
