We dreamed of this life but its harder than we expected

Life on a sailboat isn't always sunshine and perfect anchorages. This week we're anchored at Pancake Creek, where we set off on a family walk to the lighthouse before the weather has other plans. After a few days stuck onboard with two young kids, we start questioning whether this lifesty...

A week aboard our floating off-grid home

After leaving Bundaberg, we continue our journey north, making our way towards Pancake Creek. Life aboard isn't always picture-perfect. Some days are long, the motor runs more than we'd like, and the swell reminds us who's really in charge. But along the way, we managed to land a cou...
