May 24, 2021 by Slim & Soph - Sailing Nakama | Language: EN Play Time: 00:19:56 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Ah, so this is what Double Island Point is all about, we show you Double Island Point from a monohull, don’t worry we let you in on the info so you can also join the fun.
Waking up at beautiful Double Island Point, we take advantage of the bluest water we have been in for a while and dive on the boat to check out how her bottom is looking. We trek up to the lighthouse, which offers spectacular scenery and give you a run down on the tides we had so you can get into the amazing ocean lagoon all before crossing the notorious Wide Bay bar, the gateway to the Sandy Straits and beautiful Fraser Island. Soph also attempts to preserve freshly caught Tuna…

Slim & Soph - Sailing Nakama
Welcome aboard SV Nakama, We are Slim & Soph a young Aussie couple tryna get by living aboard our tiny retro sailboat with our cat Chilli. We sail the Australian coastline whilst attending university online and take you with us. After putting study on the back burner for years as we didn’t want to sacrifice adventure, we thought why not have both? Fed up with the outrageous rental prices in our hometown, the idea of doing it afloat came to mind. We figured we could scrape by on our tight student budget if we stopped paying way too much rent and lived minimally on the ocean, whilst continuing our passion for adventure. The plan for now, is to keep sailing onwards, keeping Australia to our left and once we're done doing that...Who knows. Our mission is to prove that anyone can do it, you don’t need the fanciest boat or a squillion bucks, just a whole lot of ambition and a willingness to make mistakes and learn. So join us on this whacky adventure! Slim & Soph xoxo
