THERE GOES the MAIN! 1400 OCEAN MILES in a CLASSIC CAT – Part 1 of 3 | SailAway 220
Can our 30-YEAR-OLD Privilege Catamaran handle a 9-DAY OCEAN PASSAGE?! The BIGGER question - CAN WE?! SEA SICKNESS, things BREAKING, and our FORECAST is WINDIER and WAVIER than we'd like. But there's NO SIGN of it improving in the near future. And with the Christmas holiday with family...

1400 MILES on OPEN OCEAN?! Our catamaran ISN'T ready and NEITHER ARE WE! But can we add JUST ENOUGH of the RIGHT EQUIPMENT to get us there? We're gonna do our best, but our WEATHER WINDOW is NOT cooperating. Can we make it to SOUTH CAROLINA in time to spend the holidays with our famili...

Real Life AMPLIFIED | SailAway 214
The UPS and DOWNS of CRUISING LIFE feel much more EXTREME than in "NORMAL LIFE". Add the RENOVATION of a 30 YEAR OLD CATAMARAN and a LONG spell of UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS and that effect is AMPLIFIED THAT MUCH MORE. It's sort of a BI-POLAR LIFESTYLE; the HIGHS are VERY high with amazing...
