We live off grid for 6 months on our sailboat and even though it’s a wonderful way of life, it doesn’t come without challenges. We have to figure out a way to store six months worth of food onboard so that we can stay in these remote island in the South Pacific without access to grocery stores or other supplies.

After four years living on a boat we have learned some tips and tricks to make this task easier and today we’re going to bring you along to show you how we buy enough food to last us half a year off grid. And more importantly, how much it costs to live off grid in this wild part of the world.
