From 0 to cruising full-time: Back to where our sailing adventure started!
Three years ago, when Ryan and I had just met on Tinder and he came up with that crazy idea that we should quit our jobs and go sail the world, we had no idea what we were doing.
Our friends more or less laughed at us wh...
This is Part 2 of a two parts episode, in which we decide to catch and cook an octopus in Culatra, Portugal, in spite of our absolute lack of fishing knowledge or experience.
After last week’s failure to catch our octopus, we try again with a new strategy. We embark on our dinghy and drift-fish ar...
This week, we arrive in Lagos, and have many thing to fix: our autopilot isn’t right and our radar is unusable.
After cruising all along the coast of Portugal in the fog, we also decided to install a hailer on Polar Seal’s mast.
We were so happy to find a yard that was responsive, spoke English re...
The Islas CÍes was named by The Guardian “Top 1 of 10 beaches in the World”. We set sail from Muros towards the CÍes Islands to see for ourselves if this beach lives up to the title.
The sail there is gorgeous: 22 knots of downwind, a smooth ride that only gets better when a pod of dolphins comes ...
The Northwestern coast of Spain is prone to fog and this week, we head right into it on our way from La Coruña to Islas Cíes.
After a couple of weeks spent away from the oat on a business trip, Ryan is back at the boat and we can finally continue our journey towards the Med.
We day hop in the Sp...
This week, I’m giving you a full tour and a bit of a review of our sailboat: Polar Seal, a Beneteau Oceanis 40, 2 Cabins layout (also called the owner’s version) from 2007. Polar Seal isn't only our boat, she is our home since we became liveaboards in June 2018!
Although the space we live in ...
When you are one boat, you are sailing. When you are two boats, you are racing. Guys, we are making friends!!!
This week, we make landfall from crossing Biscay in Galicia, and bay-hop from Ria del Barqueiro to Cedeira. We are having a great time with the Boutavent family, our cruising friends who,...
In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, we will be sailing through the 100 Islands area of the St Lawrence River from Potter's Beach to Clayton to watch the Independence Day fireworks. We tried to Dinghy to Clayton to party and watch the fireworks from the waterfront but the Police ordered us ba...
In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, we will be sailing through the 100 Islands area of the St Lawrence River to the white sand beaches of Potter's Beach on Grindstone Island.
We get a get a surprise morning wake up knock by the US Customs and Border patrol boat who wanted to ensure we checke...
This is the sights we captured as we sailed around near Kingston Ontario on Lake Ontario right at the mouth of the St Lawrence River. This is where you start to see the many islands that make up the 1000 Island area. It is just a beautiful area to have a boat.
Hope you enjoy the sights even thoug...
In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, I am sailing solo back to my home port in Kingston. I will show you what it takes to sail solo when the direction you need to go is dead into the wind. This requires you to sail "close hauled" (as close as your boat will sail into the wind) and when ...
We knew the passage between the North Sea and the English Channel would be a challenge: we got our money worth.
We left IJmuiden and set sail towards Cherbourg, knowing that the narrowest and shallowest part of the passage would be done by night.
We planned to make a straight sail down to Europor...
Since I work shift work and because I get way more vacation time than my wife, I tend to be on my boat alone, a lot. What I do differently when I know I am going to be out sailing alone.
#1) Be extra vigilant to check your engine and boat rigging over thoroughly before you leave the dock to try ...
WE ARE TAKING YOUR QUESTIONS!!! Ask us anything you've ever wondered about deciding to quit our jobs to go on a sailing adventure with no prior experience of boats or sailing, how it is to live as a sailing nomad, or anything related to boat life in general.
I'll make a video to answer o...
In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, I take my sailboat out solo to meet my friends up river at Simcoe Island. If you want to get a lot of use out of your sailboat, then you have to get comfortable taking your sailboat out alone. This is especially true if you work shift work, like I do, and are ...
Two months to departure!
In this episode, I tell about how we went from being full-time employees to quitting our jobs, buying a sailboat and leaving Stockholm, Sweden, to go sail the world.
Ryan and I met on Tinder in March 2015, and hit it off immediately. Unfortunately, 3 months later, Ryan su...
Two boats came up for sale in our local marina - should we go for the modern boat or the classic, heavily built, well travelled boat?

We have begun a liveaboard adventure on our Bavaria 36, Salty Lass. It is our ongoing mission to explore strange new ports, to seek out new t...
