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?
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...
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!
We explored this remote little slice of Queensland, visited the working homestead, met the anim...
I’ve just finished 3 months of charters in the Bahamas and now I have 4 days to sail to Key West Florida in the middle of hurricane season, to see our new boat for the very first time that we just put under contract, before delivering our old boat to Texas with her new owners onboard!
Far out!
But...
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 ...
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...
Five weeks after leaving the dock in Brisbane, we're finally starting to find our rhythm as a family of four living aboard our sailboat.
This week, an unexpected military closure means we're stuck in the stunning Keppel Islands for two weeks. At first, we weren't sure what we'd ...
Some days on the water remind us exactly why we chose this life.
This week, we set off before sunrise on a 70-nautical-mile sail to our next destination. With calm weather, a beautiful day ahead, and 13 hours on the water, we settle in for another family adventure.
Like any journey, there are a fe...
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...
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...
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...
After three years of upgrades, maintenance, tough decisions, and wondering if life on a small sailboat could really work with two kids, the day finally arrived... we left the dock.
In this episode, we untie the lines and begin our next adventure as a family of four aboard our 38ft sailboat. With no...
We've been trying to decide what our next adventure will be.
Magnus has been looking at various options for either buying a trailerable houseboat or building one.
Well, only a few short weeks ago we found this…
Thanks for watching.
Until next time…
Wendy and Magnus

Hi everyone, it's Christmas, our first Christmas onboard.. how cool! In this week's episode we spend a couple of days away from our new boat to housesit for some friends, which reminds us of how much easier living in a house is. We certainly find that living on an old 12m sailboat doesn...

It’s been a while! Sorry we’ve been MIA! Ben and I were busy searching for the boat of our dreams! Or at least the one that lets us commit to "The Dream". This episode recaps the boats that became our final contenders, and maybe one that stole our hearts?
