It's not always paradise in paradise!

Quick little montage of the blustery weather we’ve been seeing aboard Clarity. We make the best of it with sewing and boat projects. Plus, strong winds mean fast sailing!
Made the tune with Logic Pro. Recognize the sample? My GenX’er friends just might!
Hey, I wrote a couple books and narrated some audiobooks. Buy them and we will be rich!
Get Her on Board is about getting that significant other to buy into this cruising nonsense. People seem to like it. All proceeds go to our dog Sugar.

Live on the Margin is about making money on the go trading stocks and options. I co-wrote it with Pat Schulte of Bumfuzzle. People seem to like that one too. All proceeds donated to our boat.

We've been together for 30 years and have had three monohulls and one catamaran (Clarity) over the past 20 years. We FINALLY found our next boat and are so excited to share it with you in 2023! If you want behind the scenes/real time updates we'd love to have you join our incredible community of like minded "doers" on Patreon. We literally couldn't make these videos without the support of our community! If you're considering the cruising life, we offer 1:1 consulting over Zoom so check out www.sailclarity.com/consulting if you're interested. It's a privilege to be able to share it with you all so THANK YOU to all of you who make it happen! Nick is a meteorologist and pilot, so we may be talking a bit about that as it relates to sailing. Megan was in high tech recruiting and has been a life long seamstress - see her channel below. We have a couple other channels: O'Kelly Tech and our philosophical, meditative meanderings - MONKEYS ON A ROCK - see below.

Why our Cruise Ended too Soon!
Getting pooped on by a bird is good luck? Or is it a bad omen? After an enjoyable stretch in the Bahamas shaking down a brand new Leopard 45, we find ourselves asking, "what's next?" Fate (or a bird with diarrhea) intervenes to make the decision for us. ...
