Living full time on a 47ft SAILING CATAMARAN | Your questions answered [Ep150 RED SEAS]
Do you want discounted tickets to the Annapolis Boat Show this week? Use code SAILREDS24 or visit www.red-seas.com/annapolis to save money off your tickets, and make sure you drop by and say hello to us at the show!
We live full time on our sailboat and sometimes we forget that although this way of life is normal to us, it is still unique to most! So today we answer all your questions about boat life and what it is like to live on the ocean. We're talking new dinghy, Nanni engines, solar panels, Zora navigation system, autopilots, boat cleaning tools, our coloring book and what's going on at the Annapolis Boat Show. And while all that's going on, we're searching for humpback whales in French Polynesia!
Don't forget we're going to be livestreaming from the boat show next week. Can't wait to chat with you all!

LIFE CHANGING: sailing final 100 miles!
We've been sailing full-time on our Leopard catamaran for more than 6 years but to us, this lifestyle has always been about more than just sunsets and rainbows.

MUST-HAVE BOAT UPGRADE 2026 [RED SEAS]
After living onboard full time for the last 6 years, we are making this critical upgrade to our off grid Bluewater cruising catamaran - we are upgrading our watermaker so that we can survive in remote places for longer, knowing we are self sufficient and have a reliable system to keep us alive.

SAILING to the other side of the WORLD! [RED SEAS]
We are halfway through our sailing passage from New Zealand to Fiji, but we're facing a big problem. We anchored in a submerged atoll called Minerva Reef, because the metal structure that holds our dinghy in place broke in the huge waves that we saw last week. Before we can leave this lagoon an...![SOLO SAILING – FASTEST PASSAGE EVER! [RED SEAS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/xzix7jCQbj4/mqdefault.webp)
