If you ever just wanted to hang out, please stop by for this loosely edited travelogue. Follow along on the ups and downs and laughs as our catamaran shopping and travel stories start on the beautiful island of Grenada. We then struggle mightily with airline chaos to get back to the US to survey yet another catamaran in Southern California.

You know all your trials finding a boat has convinced me that if I ever get the opportunity to buy one, I am buying new like the Wynns or Nick and Terysa (Ruby Rose). Dealing with current owners when trying to buy a used sailboat is absolutely INSANE. Thanks for publishing the cautionary tale. Even Ben and Ashley from Sailing Nahoa are buying a new custom sailing catamaran!

A word of caution. Do not sail more than striking distance from the manufacturers or dealers during your first year. New boats are often plagued with problems too. Many a rushed Friday arvo job has been found wanting. Also warranty, here is how this works. You need to bring that boat in for repairs (at your expense). The guy that fixes it or the manufacturer are socked in, poor supplies, yard space full etc, etc, etc. So they can only fix your boat in 4-6 weeks. Oh something else goes wrong. Well welcome to the merry go round. You know, the weather is turning, the repair will be $500 if you pay someone and the yard that the dealer does warranty work in will have a spot in 21 days to save you that $500. Meanwhile your next weather window will be late spring. Your visa has 18 days left on it. Example, a $38 part failed on my engine here in Australia. It was not available at all anywhere here. Simple order it from Sweden, it will take 10 days. No problem. I pay the money. 3 weeks later no part. The factory had delays in getting green paint. I said don't paint it. 8 weeks later no part? The part is in Singapore where customs guys will not clear other cargo in the same container. 10 weeks later, I get the part, 2 minutes to install and my engine can be started again. So buying new will not help any of this. Note they didn't paint it. A black part on a green engine. Everyone knows who they are.

I agree with Phil. If you go the new route, plan to spend time cruising in the area where the boat was built. Most builders are well meaning but it is a tough business. So make it easy for them to make things right and you will benefit from buying new.

Your example shows all of us to stick to your fundamental beliefs and knowing what you are after and the parameters you have set - and not being side tracked by life that seems to work against you. And kudos for maintaining your overall upbeat attitude in the face of so many frustrations.. A lesson many of should learn from. Im a bit torn - as I want you to find a boat but I am so enjoying the journey and the learnings of this epic tale of trying to find one :)

I respect your honesty and allowing us to get an insight of what it takes to sail the high seas with owning a sailboat. I realize now it takes more then money and even more it takes commitment to maintain a sailboat. Even though I have the money to buy a sailboat, I would not have the commitment and most of all my wife would not be onboard (homebody). Keep on sailing with your video's and stay safe.

That is the same situation that happened with me when I was looking at a catamaran online while I was in San Diego and the boat was in Alaska. The owner's blog revealed many things about the boat that were both unmentioned and / or contradictory to what was portrayed by the seller and his broker. It saved me a trip to Alaska. I would pose the view that while your search is taking a long time... it is working out just perfect for you guys - you have not overpaid for a lemon. Hope to see you on your new boat in Mexico this season.

Later when opening it, I discovered that it was bent and that the owner only opened it to the bent bit. As a result of the damage the internals were all wrecked too. So more than one bent thing on the boat.

Another reason you guys rock; The parameters of your sense of humor scrapes my own. Ok, back to it now. Second thing. Don’t be hard on Oxnard. Oxnard is legend in SoCal punk circles. Early/mid 80’s. A sub-genre of punk called Nardcore. It was aggressive and fast skate thrash style. Aggression, Dr. Know, Ill Repute, stalag 13. All great bands. Grew up in San Fernando Valley during that time. Lucky enough to see all those band in their hey-day. It really did nudge punk in their direction. Oxnard definitely deserves a mention in music history.

It certainly is, and we certainly will. It'll all work out. Always does.

I gotta say, you guys are the coolest. And I mean the COOLEST ! So positive, so kind, such fun, incredibly patient and clearly still so much in love. I am in awe of you both. Wish we had of met in New Zealand. Nevertheless, onwards and upwards. Here's to a new boat!

Completely agree about the standing rigging situation. When I heard that is t was replaced in 2017 the first thing that popped in my mind was, wait, wouldn't it be slated for replacement soon now that it's 2023? Sure enough several seconds later you said the same thing to confirm my thoughts. I guess you could have bought the boat and waited a year if you weren't planning on doing major cruises with the yacht, but it would still need replacing soon rather than later. Moreover, other things might come to light in that time that need repair or replacement and your maintenance bill can skyrocket fast..

Keep an eye on the AC ( if important for you) for your boat shopping in Europe. Many of them, don't have.

Great episode, Sailing Shaman of fun. Raw footage very peaceful. If time allows in France, look into bare boat barge canal trips. No scones, croissants. Tour Lagoon factory in Bordeaux or performance cat production line?

It's not frustrating for us at all guys, for you though... That's a totally different matter, hang on in there, these things happen for a reason. Cannes will be Amazing (not jealous at all) and enjoy your tour of Europe. If you can, try and get a few days sailing round the Greek Islands 😘❤

Everyone wondered why I bought a 50 year old boat. Reason: I knew it needed everything, and now I know the age of and origin of everything on the boat.

Amazing amount of shopping and buying advice as usual. But for most of us watching your videos, its still about your inter personal dynamics as you face life's never ending challenges, boat or no boat. Also, the KZfaq family channel "SailAway" should be in Granada if you have ever heard of them.

Have you found a boat yet? 😊 We are new to sailing and have been watching all your videos!! We’re headed to our ASA101 certification training. 😮 It’s live aboard until Sunday early evening. Hope you are both well and find your next boat! Our plan is when we sell our house, to be live aboard catamaran sailors! Thanks for reading. 😊
