The Truth About Our Boat Buying & Selling Journey
We bought a catamaran. Then we sold it. Now we’re living the landlubber life in Florida… while working our way through the contract contingencies on our next catamaran. ⛵️🌴
Yep, it’s been a journey — full of wild lessons, emotional decisions, and a whole lot of growth. In this video, we’re opening up about our full boat-buying and selling experience: how we chose our first catamaran, why we decided to sell, what it was really like to let go, and what we’re doing differently this time as we gear up for round two.
Right now, we’re back on land (yes, with laundry machines and actual parking spots 😆) soaking up the Florida sun while we wait for our next boat adventure to begin. It’s weird, wonderful, and definitely an adjustment!
🎯 Here’s what we cover:
The good, bad, and “wait, what?!” of buying our first cat
Our recommendations for selecting an excellent yacht broker
What we’ve learned about boat life
What it’s like living back on land after life at sea
If you're dreaming about boat life or in the middle of your own boat buying process, we hope our story helps you navigate the waters a little more smoothly.

Finding a Safe Place to Leave Our Sailboat
One last move before we leave. We brought Big Lost through the pass into Phaeton Bay, Tahiti, where our catamaran will stay while we head back to the U.S. For now, she’s settled at anchor. ⛵️ #SailingLife #LiveaboardLife #CatamaranSailing #Tahiti #Shorts
