We want to go all over the world and are working hard to carefully craft a long-term lifestyle. You're invited to watch as we share the journey from suburbia to sailing freely.

5 Sailing Mistakes We Made As Beginners. You know how you don’t know what you don’t know when your just learning something for the first time? Well, we only started sailing 10 months ago when we moved aboard SV Cadence, a Catalina 387. Before then, we didn’t know how to sail.
And we had no clue.
But that’s okay.
We learned from our mistakes, and we’re still learning from our sailing mistakes.
In this episode we share what we’ve learned about the traveler, furling, reefing, sail power, center of effort, point of sail, and the mainsheets! Here are the biggest 5 sailing mistakes we used to make:
0:36 Mistake #1

Who Are We?
We’re the Fosters, and we just sold our house and purchased a sailboat, Cadence, a Catalina 387. We’re on a journey to minimize our life, learn to live on a sailboat, and sail away.
In 2019, Matt quit his public education career of 15 years, and went full-time building his own business. Olivia is ready to explore the world, and so am I…but first, we have to save up, learn about sailing, and figure out a way to leave land.
We’re sharing this journey with you in hopes that it’ll bring you a smile, provide something helpful, and maybe give a bit of inspiration to live life on your terms – to explore your world.
Join us as we take this journey into the unknown, and share some laughs along the way.
