Like most parents on Earth, ours are a little worried/concerned about us and this crazy idea of ours! Really, why go sail the oceans on “une coque de noix” (translate on a nut shell). Maybe they would feel more secure if we went on something like this. All donations are welcomed Dear parents, for the [...] On my last rant about leadership, we had a comment from Tate from Sundowner. After reading their blog for a while, I realized that we were in similar situation. Well when I say similar, I do not include the herculean task of refitting an older boat from scratch. You have talent patience and take the [...] For over a year now we have been talking about it fairly casually : One day we will leave to go explore the world while cruising. Furthermore, we have been writing this blog for three years now, and brought more seriousness to our potential departure this past December and officially in January. Although at this [...] Lots of reasons can justify why some boats never leave, some are valid and completely understandable.

After re-organizing all my tools and supplies, [...] We have been living in North America for a long time now. With that said we can say we have been spoiled and our value system is messed up. We believe that a customer is gold and that he should be treated with respect. This is until you deal with French companies, and we [...] Realistically all cruiser knows that those boring tech post are just a cover up for our real life. We try to make it boring so we can keep those anchorage to ourselves. It was a screen and mirror game! Simply we were playing with your mind, we can’t uphold it any longer. Sorry Sorry….. [...] When the FedEx man arrived today, it felt like Santa Claus was in the house. One of the biggest purchase made for Letitgo has arrived, the water maker.
The first impression was positive. Well packaged, very organized and detail oriented. The stylish metallic blue of the membrane [...] My last project was done and the boat cleaned up, so one more thing left to do. You got it!! start a new one and mess it up, again…. On top of the list for this Sunday: the anchor wash down and changing the fridge’s pump from sea water to tank water. In preparation [...] |
