The YouTube Boat Life Journey of Sailing Melody
Sailing Melody offers a glimpse into their exciting YouTube boat life journey. Covering everything from coastal navigation plans to home education updates, ongoing onboard projects and maintenance tasks like constructing an innovative dingy cradle, the family behind this popular channel also provides insight into how they generate income through their thriving platform.
Coastal Navigation Plans
Currently focusing on moving south along the Welsh coastline, Sailing Melody aims to reach Penarth Marina. From there, the family plans a journey down the coast of Cornwall, visiting Portland before potentially lifting their boat for further inspections and repairs in Portland.
Home Education Updates
The channel also frequently updates about the children’s home education. Despite leaving formal schooling behind, both Jack and Ollie are thriving in this alternative learning environment. With plans for regular social interactions and continuous education support, Sailing Melody is making sure that the educational needs of their children are met.
Onboard Projects and Maintenance Tasks
The crew on Sailing Melody continuously works on various onboard projects. Recent tasks include replacing the water impeller in their marine diesel engine, conducting repairs on their keel, and upgrading their fuel system with new tanks and filters.
Constructing a Dingy Cradle
In an effort to secure and store their dingy efficiently, Sailing Melody has started constructing a custom-made cradle. Although still a work in progress, this DIY project demonstrates the family’s practical approach to boat living.
Income Through Their YouTube Channel
To maintain their nomadic lifestyle, Sailing Melody relies on multiple income streams, one of which includes their successful YouTube channel. Although specific earnings are not disclosed, the family has mentioned the importance of both viewer support and revenue from their Patreon page.
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.
