Sailing and living aboard during a Canadian winter, ehh! | Ep 05
…. as we were getting ready for our “big” trip. We continue to attempt living a normal live aboard during Vancouver’s coldest winter. We still managed to find time and weather windows to go teach ourself how to sail and explore some of the great landscapes we have in our backyard like Morraine Lake,, Squamish, Whistler, etc…. just to name a few since we wouldn’t be “home” for a while. And finally, we adopt an adorable 8 week old puppy, our Kona girl.
IN THE NEXT EPISODE… we sail the Howe Sound some more and start to build our mainsail from scratch with a Sailrite Kit. Stay tuned!

Wandersailing
Join us as we discover this world on board our sailboat. We are strong believers in following our dreams, and in that everything is possible with a strong desire, motivation and the willingness to make sacrifices. We didn't let our limited budget stop us from following our noses into the ocean, not knowing a thing about sailing. Instead, we let our passion for adventure and exploration take us there as we threw caution to the wind... literally. We are documenting our travels and bringing you on this journey as we spend time with the locals, find hidden gems and admire this beautiful world we call home. This will be more than just sailing, it will be a discovery adventure in itself: hiking, camping, fishing, diving, cooking, surfing, and so many more wicked shenanigans.
