It’s island time, baby! In this episode we take you exploring with Rahm, discover some amazing seascapes off the beaches of Great Guana Cay, cook the best coconut French toast, and start to assimilate to cruising life in the Bahamas.
We also fly our drone for the first time while under sail — and i...
Since falling in love with the idea of cruising years ago, Lauren has had one dream: Go sailing aboard our own boat to clear turquoise waters — just the two of us — before having kids.
After two years aboard, sailing Lake Michigan, motoring down the rivers, sailing the Gulf of Mexico through the K...
Crossing the Gulf is a big milestone and right of passage for any sailor heading south. With a swift northern current churning up extra chop it can make for a bumpy ride. We've heard plenty of horror stories, but know to take all that dock talk with a grain of salt. Firsthand experience wins ou...
“How far are you behind real time?” We get asked this question a lot. All videos online are behind real-time by some amount, unless you’re watching a live stream. Some are more-so than others, and ours no doubt, have a significant delay. Why?
We explain when and how we started our YouTube channel, ...
This is it! We’re off to The Bahamas…or so we plan. After last minute provisioning, we leave Marathon and set sail to cross the Gulf Stream. Even though we’re making good time, beating to windward takes its toll, and we decide to call an audible. Fortunately, before Lauren loses her breakfast to the...
After a month in Marathon, we’re nearly finished with our DIY bimini. With just a few more finishing touches, including modifications for the backstay, the radar pole, and the solar panels, we’ll be ready to take off to The Bahamas.
While in Boot Key Harbor, our friends Jordan & Randi of Learni...
If you think we have this whole life thing figured out, don’t let us fool you! We constantly feel like we’re never getting enough done, that we’re falling behind, and that life is moving too quickly. Anyone else feel like it’s a struggle to find balance in life?
In this episode, we arrive in Marat...
Watch part 1 of the CORONA CHRONICLES HERE!
We tried to sail to Playa Venao to relax and surf while the world went crazy with the Coronavirus pandemic, but the police had other ideas. With all borders closed around the world, we have nowhere to go, so decide to go to Panama city, do a final provis...
After spending as much time in boatyards as we have, it might make you wonder: Is it all worth it?
In this episode, we set off on our first overnighter of the season, with a destination of Marathon in the Florida Keys. We’ll finish our bimini here, which didn’t get done while we were in the yard.
...
We broke out of boat jail (aka the boatyard) and are sailing south! On a frisky upwind sail across Charlotte Harbor, we break in our new headsail from Precision Sails; then our way to Fort Myers, we get a chance to fire up our Spirit 1.0 electric outboard from ePropulsion. New cruising gear has us g...
The water is so close now we can smell it. After trailering Soulianis out of our landlocked boatyard, she’s now poised and ready for launch — right after we finish painting the centerboard with bottom paint.
The launch goes well at first. No leaks, and the motor runs. One problem: forward gear doe...
Remember the horrible arch saga? Well, we’re officially putting an end to that chapter… and nope, we didn’t hire another contractor — instead we decided to build a bimini ourselves.
The reason we hired out the job in the first place was because we wanted a custom arch that would match the lines of...
Does the boat project list ever end...? It must. It has to. Or else our boat may as well have a mailbox next to its jack stands.
We’re down to the last few items on our project list — and that’s because we threw a bunch off, citing them as non-essential. We’re so close, just need to wrap up a few l...
When we smelled diesel in our cabin, we knew we had a problem. We just hoped it would turn out to be an easy fix… but how often does THAT happen?
Finding the source our fuel leak leads us into another big boat project, forcing us to postpone our launch date, and requiring — as all new boat project...
If you haven’t seen Part 1 yet, go watch it here!
Our diesel engine, Mr. Beke, is getting some serious upgrades. In Part 1, we installed a new heat exchanger, water pump and crank shaft pulley. Now, with some DIY hardware fabrication and wiring modifications, our Westerbeke 40 will have a new 120A...
This is Part 1/2. Part 2 is now live here:

Glad to be (nearly) done with our bottom job, we move on to our diesel engine, which needs maintenance and upgrades. ‘Course, no boat project is without hurdles. We get a serpentine pulley kit which proves to be more difficult to DIY than advertised, ...

Horror stories abound across the interwebs about Coppercoat. We've read and watched just about all of them! If you look, there are a ton of rave reviews out there, too.
Sometimes, you just need to go with your gut. Our instincts told us that if we followed the process correctly, Coppercoat was...
Believe it or not, this ONE TINY little hose clamp is all that’s keeping our boat from potentially sinking to the bottom. It’s part of our centerboard operation, and unfortunately there’s not much we can do to improve it, except to ensure the clamps and hoses are in good condition. So we tear the wh...
After 5 months away from the boat, we return to the boatyard in Florida to find out how Soulianis survived over hurricane season. We’ve never left her alone for this long before, and really hope the preparation we did before we left protected her from all the ills that can befall lonely boats: mold,...
Our sailing off-season — driving around in Chip, hanging out in the Great Lakes, sailing, surfing & swimming — has been a fun diversion from the boat. Now it’s time to get back to Florida. We finish our last big van project (building a bed), and also go behind the scenes at the Joshua Tree Skin ...

Between provisions and spare parts, we just spent the MOST MONEY of any week during our refit journey!! ....what?
OUCH.
Preparing to cruise is pretty much just spending money...
Now that our sailboat is ...
We’re slowly making our way in our van, Chip, around Lake Huron. In this episode we leave Manitoulin Island, hopping a ferry to Tobermory. The Bruce Peninsula is stunning — high cliffs topped with colorful plants and Bahamian-like blue water. We park the van on the beach, and sail a Sunfish on Lake ...
With Soulianis on the hard in Florida, we take our van up to The North Channel of Lake Huron and hop back on a sailboat! We meet up with two couples who are seasoned sailors (our “boat parents” from Episode 13) who take us on a tour of their favorite spots over five days.
We sail, paddle, hike, and...
