It's Been CRAZY and EXPENSIVE Becoming Fulltime Liveaboards!!!
It's Been CRAZY and EXPENSIVE Becoming Fulltime Liveaboards!!! | S01E02 Sailing Pivo
In this episode, we become transition to becoming full time liveaboards. We learn that cruising full time is not the fairytales and butterflies you often think it is. Starting with a scary experience coming into the marina, we end up having to hauling out the boat, and have several unforeseen and expensive fixes. But we remember that we had foreseen the experience as possible, and do our best to enjoy it with good beer and even better friends.
Shout out to All Marine Services for providing absolutely STELLAR service - Efficient, friendly, and professional service! If you're in Gulf Harbour Marina or nearby, I highly recommend giving them a call. AND, if you didn't see the video, we didn't tell them that were were going to make a video about our experience until after they had already provided great service!

ABOUT US
Come join my wife and I as we learn to sail and have new sailor experiences on our new Whiting 40. We are a brand new sailing couple, and have fallen in love with the sport. Many sailing lessons have been learned so far as we learn how to become sailors. Our first mate, Pivo, keeps us out of trouble and is also learning along the way.
We are starting our voyage in New Zealand where we have been living for the last 4 years. But we are going zero to cruising because we're from the mountains of Colorado and have zero experience! Our first sail was with the sailing school, Great Escape, up in Opua, New Zealand (home the 2021 America's Cup). We hope our lessons from a beginner sailor will help you also as we set out on a multi-year sailing adventure around the world.
We hope to become a fulltime sailing / cruising family soon, as we love the sailing lifestyle so much! We love traveling, meeting new people, and seeing the world. We hope you come along for the adventure!
Thank you so much for having a watch! Please like this video and subscribe to our channel!

Fair winds & calm seas,
