Reef entry chaos – the kids pick the worst time!
This week, we head out to experience the Great Barrier Reef with our two little ones — and lets say entering the reef was an adventure in itself! Between the nerves and a whole lot of chaos, it definitely wasn’t the smooth family reef trip we had imagined. But once we finally made it in… WOW. 🤿🌊 T...
I jumped aboard a runaway catamaran in 30 knots
Two months ago, we left Brisbane with our two kids and set off on a wild adventure north. We had no idea how far we'd get as a family of four, but Airlie Beach had always been the goal. Along the way, we've explored some incredible islands, met fellow cruising families, and had plenty of...
What is it REALLY like living full-time on a boat with kids?
What is it REALLY like living full-time on a boat with kids? From the outside, boat life can look pretty idyllic — waking up in beautiful places, swimming off the boat, exploring islands and having adventures as a family. But the reality is… it’s not always that simple. Living on a 38-foot sailbo...
This is what happens when you live on a boat
We’re back at Middle Percy Island! 🌴⛵ After a pretty disastrous start to our stay — blocked toilets, hungry kids, a BBQ fire, burnt dinner and a very rolly anchorage — things finally started looking up!

6 years of sailing…we should have done this sooner!
After six years of sailing our 38ft sailboat, it was finally time for me to learn how to take control of her myself. When we bought AWRY, Kieran and I always planned to learn together. But a year later we started our family, and without really deciding it, we naturally fell into our roles — Kieran ...
We found a simple way to make boat life easier
Living on a boat sounds pretty idyllic… until you need to do a grocery shop😅 We’ve been spending the last two weeks exploring the Keppel Islands, but with our next move coming up, it’s time to seriously restock the boat. The problem? We don’t have a car. That means anchoring close enough to a sup...
A Military Closure Forced Us To Stop

Why We Chose Boat Life (And What It Really Costs)
Why did we choose a boat over a house? And what does it really cost to live on a sailboat? These are two of the questions we get asked the most, so in this week's episode we're sharing the honest answers. When we first bought our sailboat back in 2019, it was all about adventure. But ove...
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...
