We're starting to wonder if we've bitten off more than we can chew 😬 Haul outs are always a struggle, so we really shouldn't be suprised at this point that everything always takes way longer and turns out to be more difficult than planned. We had our ...

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...
This hasn't gotten any less SCARY for us 🙈 Even though it's our 9th time pulling Delos out of the water, it's still such a nerve racking experience...there are just so many things that can go really really wrong. You’re basically asked to steer your ...
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 ...
We're falling in love here! We've seen some pretty crazy destinations during our 13 year trip around the world, but this has to be one of the most jaw droppingly beautiful places we've ever laid eyes on. During his expedition through the Sea of Cortez in ...
The boat's NOWHERE NEAR 100%, but to GET IT THERE, we need to travel 1800+ MILES to the U.S. before Dec. 12! This jump to the USVI is the FIRST STEP in our LONGEST JOURNEY EVER. We've got NO NAV, it's WINDY, it's ROUGH, it's 400 miles to St. Thomas, it's ...

It's a BOATYARD BLITZ!! The list is HUGE and we only have 7 DAYS. From our UNEXPECTEDLY SHOT COPPERCOAT bottom, to NUMEROUS DAMAGE areas, and MANY items in between, we do ALL THE WORK OURSELVES and ON THE CHEAP. We have less than a MONTH to make 1800 mi...
It's been a while since we posted a video like this...No disasters, no storms, no hospital, just pure cruising bliss. We had forgotten what it was like to feel at ease, and man did we need this! And for all you Sierra fans out there, brace yourselves for...
Our 1992 PRIVILEGE CATAMARAN comes with COMPROMISES. But SAILABILITY ISN'T one of them! As we start our 1800 MILE JOURNEY northward from GRENADA, we get into 30+ KNOTS SUSTAINED as well as 5 knots, all upwind. How does this girl handle it and WHY do we ...

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 HIG...

We're RENOVATING our PRIVILEGE 482 CATAMARAN and the TO-DO LIST is LONG, but one item has PLAGUED OUR EXISTENCE from DAY ONE. Now that we have an EXPERT on hand to fix it, it's STILL NOT WORKING. Sometimes it comes down to REPLACING over FIXING and just ...

We really can't explain this feeling...Every day is different when you live full time on a sailboat, and it's easy to forget that this is what it's all about
After some of the best spinnaker sailing conditions we've had in ages, we arrive to Los Islotes, ...
It's NOT WHAT YOU THINK. Grenada is AMAZING. Beautiful anchorages , epic jungles, wonderful locals, endless activities. But ONE THING makes us wish we could STAY FOREVER! Sadly, we can't, because even if we did, that one thing would also be gone. Enjo...
