Bums on a Boat, A Virtual Happy Hour, Wind over Water
Wind over Water
Welcome to Wind over Water. We are Chris and Debbie, a young at heart middle aged couple who sell it all and become full time sailors. Our videos document our adventures preparing our boat and ourselves for the trip of a lifetime south through America and to the Bahamas, through the purchase and outfitting of our new boat and more adventures in our Canadian Great Lakes. Along the way we have interviewed sailing royalty in our Virtual Happy Hour series and we uncover some forgotten sailing relics in our Back Yard Boat Find series. For all of you who have dreamed of cutting the lines and sailing off into the sunset, this channel is for you. Follow us on our midlife adventure as we sail away, by Wind, over Water.

Have you ever dreamt of buying an old boat and taking off. Bums on a Boat is a great YouTube channel for the dreamers who don’t mind getting their hands dirty. Joel and Michal are two determined, young sailors who are adventuring on a budget. Follow along as they learn everything from sail handling, to boat repair and engine maintenance. We had a great visit from this friendly couple and discovered, much to our surprise, that we had some mutual acquaintances. The Bums visit has been split into two episodes. The first one gives us the back story and a great story it is. They share with us their path so far and their plans for the future. In episode two we dig into what it takes to create a successful YouTube channel. So grab a beverage, and come on board. There is plenty of room in the cockpit. Join us as we hear ‘the tales of BOAB”. Bums on a boat are in the house.
