Hi, we are Patrick and Michaela! We decided to buy a sailboat and follow our dreams to sail the world.
We use to live in a self converted camper van, traveled internationally for a year, and now live full time on our catamaran Thalia. She is a 1987 Prout Snowgoose 37 Elite and absolutely feels like home.
Thank you for checking out our channel. If you would like to join our community, we would love to have you.
Have a peaceful day,
Patrick & Michaela

Liveaboard Nightmare: Everything Is Breaking! First Snow Storm (Extended)
In this episode, we continue tackling sailboat repair challenges after breaking down on the ICW. With rebuilding a sail drive leg, a failing generator, and a stubborn dinghy engine, we push through a tough week of liveaboard struggles and cruising challenges. Our plan? A DIY boat repair by beaching the boat for a drive leg swap out instead of hauling out. From an unexpected snow storm to creative problem-solving, this episode is all about resilience and keeping the dream alive aboard, Thalia!
