Creator's Key Takeaways

we thought well since we're not set on any location why don't we get a boat let's try that lifestyle out

the boat is the perfect way in my opinion to travel to foreign destinations whether it be mexico whether it be wherever and you can just drop your anchor on the shore

we have faith in our boat we have faith in our abilities and the world is not as scary of a place as the media leads us to believe

the best things in life are never free right they cost you something

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get on as many boats as you can to feel the different designs and find what suits your needs
Define your goals clearly when looking for a boat (e.g., coastal cruising vs. ocean crossings)
Plan redundancies and carry spare parts for boat systems
