RAW AND UNCUT! Raising A Family on the OPEN OCEAN
RAW and UNCUT… okay so this video isn’t entirely uncut because I have to fit our lives into a 20-30 minute video. This week we are hopping down the coast of New Zealand, documenting our stops and our family as we head to Marsden Cove to haul out the boat. We cover everything from beach trips, to boat maintenance, to hanging out with dolphins. Our REAL, RAW, everyday boat life.
Thank you for watching and subscribing. You don’t know how much we appreciate it!
To God be the glory!
