Hi Sarah!!!!! It was so amazing to be able to do a little collab with you. Hopefully uou can come sailing with us one day soon. Youre always very welcome in Australia! 🌎 ⛵

Another key point - she is not alone on the boat …

I completely understand the logistics of both life. So I opted for RV life. Been full time for 4 years. There are pros and cons with this too. I'm also looking for a change.

Good video again Sarah. Your own words are the best advice one can give: "Try before you buy". See if there is someone you know that will let you stay on their boat for a short time. Or take a cheap sail/dive trip with an operator to see if that sparks your interest. I know you will love it, but sailing is a form of pain like no other. A boat has more 'things'. And as you know the more things you have the more things break down - typically these 'things' are expensive to either fix or replace. Do you have any mechanical knowledge? If not you will have to have someone else fix things for you. It's a matter of when, not IF! Personally, it would be better if you had a partner as Kat does. So if you can put on hold the dreams till you meet someone then that would be preferable, and more pleasurable of course. But if you were really keen. You can often find cheap yachts that you can renovate but to life. It may take you a couple of years on being in one place while you do it, but you will learn a LOT about your boat, how it works, and how to fix things from the ground up. Check out a channel like Tula's Endless Summer, where they pick up a yacht for $100. They then spent a lot over a couple of years fixing it up and then sold it. But they had a great time using it once it was finished. There are other channels that show their boat resurrecting life styles, you could check them out to if you've the time and connection. I would certainly recommend you watch a few of these so you know what you are getting into, but it can be a cheap entry to boating life. But don't rush into the first $1 boat you see, do your research first. It will give you a huge audience and following for a number of years guaranteed! And a boat will give you the room for your own compressor eventually, so there's that. If you buy a sailing boat, then certainly you can teach yourself to sail, but it can be far quicker to go sail with someone who can "show you the ropes" quite literally! And that will make it easier. Get the book and read it religiously. Good luck with everything going forward.

I think that security issues can also be important, expecially for us women.....

I love the idea of sailing and scuba diving. My dream is to live on a sailboat.

Seasickness ... Essential oils work for me. I use MotionEaze, a drop behind each ear. Then I have Peppermint essential oil. If needed I put a drop in my palm, rub the palms together, then cup my hands over my mouth and nose like a mast. It is super strong and controls the seasickness. Must do it early on and not wait till you're green.

You both are full of life and fun. I lived in a van for 2 years maybe. I felt free. That I had to take full bath in the cold winter outside (with warm water) didn't bothered me at all. Wish you both good luck!

I was a Dive Instructor many years ago. I'd say both van and boat. Ideally a bus also. You can sleep whereever suits you best depending on the elements

👍😎🤿🇵🇭!What the hell go for it 👍!!!

Amazing video, congrats 🎉🎉🎉 I follow both of you 😀

This is awesome

You will have a lot more room in a sail boat compared to a van.....lol. The freedomof both lives is awesome.

This was a cool video.

You should go for it! I've been considering living on a boat. Either on the open water or a 60 foot barge on the canals in the UK

It’s good you are researching…

If you are willing to spend more to live on a boat, are you also willing to spend that same amount to live in a more custom van rig that would give more room or built out more specific to your needs?

Key point … she doesn’t live on the boat full time … her experience living on the boat is several months at a time …

“Give me a good ship” Honestly I would take the boat But I’m fitting her out to my way, I’m at home at sea with sail and canvas. To quote an old pirate “there are only three types of men. Those living, those dead and those who take to the sea.” -Black Sam Bellamy

Maybe 🤔 take a “temp” job or series of “temp” jobs where you live on a boat for a month or two, to experience how that goes? And see if you get your sea legs?

See ya on the water 🤙🏼 let me know if you have any questions.

👌⚓🤿🔱🇪🇦

I feel bad for the her dogs, not being comfortable enough on the boat to relieve themselves … how to get them to go 💩 while out to sea might be a question for her veterinarian?
