This was not the plan.
A new crew member arrived in Thailand, and normally that would mean we’re getting ready to go sailing on the new yacht. But because of my recent illness and more hospital visits, I had to stay behind in Pattaya.
So instead of me taking the boat, Olivia took over.
She joined...
After finishing the shakedown cruise on my new yacht, we pulled back into the marina thinking the hard part was behind us. But shortly after, I started having serious GI problems and ended up making an emergency trip to the ER in Thailand.
What followed was a scary few days of blood tests, an ultra...
It’s the final day of the shakedown cruise on my new yacht, and we sail back toward Ocean Marina after a few incredible days out on the water. The boat has been amazing, the dogs have loved it, and this was supposed to be the simple final leg back to the marina.
But once we got back, everything cha...
Day three of our shakedown cruise on my new yacht started anchored off Koh Larn, but we decided to sail about 15 miles west to the uninhabited island of Koh Phai.
This turned out to be exactly the kind of place I dreamed about when buying this boat — white sand beaches, beautiful clear water, the d...
Our second day cruising around the Thai islands on my new sailing catamaran started at anchor on the north end of Koh Larn. By 8 a.m., the peaceful anchorage was already filling up with tour boats and jet skis, and it was getting pretty uncomfortable.
But before we could escape to the quieter side ...
After years of waiting, delays, setbacks, and one very long journey to get here, my new yacht is finally mine!
I signed the paperwork the day before, and now it is time to take her out for our first real sail and shakedown cruise. I was definitely a little nervous pulling out of the slip and leavin...
Before I officially take possession of my new yacht, we head out for some of the final sea trials to track down a strange noise coming from the electric drive system.
The issue seems to be somewhere around the Python drive, CV joint, electric motor, and prop shaft. We try several different adjustme...
After months of waiting, my new catamaran finally leaves the dock for her first sail and sea trial!
We start the day getting off the dock and heading out for the yacht’s first real test on the water. Before putting her fully through her paces, we sail over to the lee of an island to test the anchor...
After years of waiting, delays, factory visits, road transport, crane lifts, final checks, and a whole lot of stress… my new Island Spirit 525e catamaran is finally going in the water!
This is one of the biggest moments of the entire build. Launching a brand-new yacht is exciting, but it is also ex...
After months of waiting, my brand new Island Spirit catamaran has finally made it from the factory to the marina! The boat was trucked 38 kilometers down the road, and now the real work begins.
In this episode, we watch the crew carefully unload the yacht from the truck, move it into position at th...
After years of waiting, delays, damage, insurance drama, and a full yacht build in Thailand, my new Island Spirit catamaran is finally scheduled to leave the factory.
But before the yacht can be moved, I head to the factory for one final walkthrough and approval. The crew also gives the boat a trad...
I met Olivia on Bumble, and she was supposed to fly home to Poland today… but somehow I talked her into skipping her flight and coming sailing with me instead.
Before we head out, I wanted to take her to the Island Spirit factory here in Thailand and give her a first look at my brand-new yacht. I a...
I’ve traveled all over Thailand, but there’s one island that keeps standing out to me: Koh Chang.
In this episode, I take the truck on a 5-hour road trip across Thailand, hop on the ferry, and head over to the island that I could honestly see myself retiring on someday. Along the way, I talk about ...
My new Island Spirit 525 electric catamaran is finally getting close to leaving the factory! In this episode, I head back to the Island Spirit factory in Thailand to check on the progress of my boat build, and it looks like we are only about 12 days away from getting her out of the factory.
But of ...
We spent our last day aboard the Island Spirit 525e charter boat, making the most of a beautiful day on the water before sailing her back to the marina. We hit the beach, enjoyed one last cruise, and the girls soaked up the sun before heading home.
But after the fun was over, I had to share some di...
In this episode of Sailing Doodles, we explore some of the most famous spots in Phang Nga Bay, Thailand.

We’re still a few weeks away from my own Island Spirit 525 being ready, so instead of sitting around waiting, we head to Phuket and jump aboard Island Spirit 525 Hull 4 for an amazing sailing adventure.
In this video, I give you a full tour of the boat so you can see what this new 525 is all about ...
I had a realization this week… I’ve started to forget how unusual this life actually is.
We’re sailing the Cape Verde islands, living full-time on our small sailboat — something that once felt completely out of reach. And yet, somewhere along the way, it started to feel… normal.
In this episode, I...

After two nights at anchor at Koh Sichang near Pattaya, we pull up anchor and sail back toward mainland Thailand. Just south of Pattaya, we find a beautiful anchorage and head ashore, only to discover we’ve landed in the middle of an unexpected powerboat race with multiple classes and divisions. It ...
After a peaceful night at anchor off Koh Larn, we woke up to the bay filling with jet skis and tour boats, so it was time to move on. Unfortunately, I was already feeling terrible from something I ate the night before.
We got the boat underway and made the 10-mile run north to Koh Sichang, a much m...
After months of waiting for my new catamaran… I finally got out on the water.
The team at Island Spirit handed me the keys to their brand new 410 catamaran for a full shakedown cruise here in Thailand — and I couldn’t wait to see what it could do.
