We NEVER ask anyone to help us out but several people have asked for ways to do so so mhere are the ways you can contribute to this project :
PATREON : Become a Patron and get early releases and bonus footage and real time updates for as little as $3 per month, or you can also make one time donations.

KO-FI : Ko-fi is a bit like Patron but doesn’t have a regular donation unless you choose to set one up. The benefit of Ko-fi is that we get more of the money so less is taken off us than Patron do.

Sailing Melody
Sailing Melody is the official YouTube channel for the Bennington Family and our sailing adventures. We are now well on our way to becoming a full time live-aboard family. We started with a little 24ft Snapdragon bilge keel, and then moved up to a 28ft Great Dane long keel yacht. Now though we're working on MELODY, our 38ft Steel Pilothouse Cutter. We're working hard to get her ready to go back in the water but as you'll see there's a lot of work to do. Join us on our epic journey restoring this beautiful boat to her former glory and then come with us as we set off around the world.
