1 YEAR Living on a 37ft Sailboat I Ep. 32

1 YEAR Living on a 37ft Sailboat I Ep. 32

In this episode of Sailing Indiana, we talk to you about living aboard our Gib'Sea 372 and the live aboard lifestyle. As a sailing couple we tell you about our sailing experience over the last year, what we will be getting up to in 2022 and what sailing adventures we have planned for 2023 and beyond!

This episode is about how we navigate the sailing lifestyle and how to start living on a sailboat!

Look out for a future episode of our sailboat tour so we can show you how we live aboard our sailboat!

Great thru it or fumbling thru
Doesn't really matter, you're out there havin' a crack.
Good on you both, keep up the good work.

Fantastic recap of your year. Brought back some great memories, lots of laughs, and few ouchies, and lots of learning. A great 2022 awaits for sure.

Hi Lauren & Chris. Happy new year to you both. My wife and I are also fairly new to sailing. We bought our first sailing boat in June 2020, a Beneteau Oceanis 343 we absolutely loved the sailing and three months later bought an immaculate barely used Bavaria 42 Cruiser. Our home marina is MDL Chatham, and last year we sailed from Ramsgate directly to Brixham, a passage of 215 nautical miles, with very little experience. We then explored Cornwall for 8 weeks. On our return, we sailed from Brixham to Poole, and then Poole to Brighton, and then Brighton to Eastbourne, and then Eastbourne to Ramsgate, and then Ramsgate back to Chatham. We've recently returned from Gibraltar, where we both completed our Day Skipper Practical course, we done the theory part in the UK prior to departing. We are going to the Med next year and will be stopping in Brighton enroute to Plymouth, so hopefully my wife and I will get the chance to say hello to you both. You're both doing great job, and the only real way to learn is to jump in like you have and get as much as experience as possible. All the best to you both. Kind regards Daryl.

I don’t comment very often but I’ve been watching from the beginning. Keep sailing to grow your experience.

All the best for the new year guys. Lovely to re-visit your previous year and see how far you both have come. Thank you for sharing and keep on smashing those challenges. Stay safe.

[mikg]

Have enjoyed watching your guys this year (or rather last year now). Looking forward to seeing what 2022 has to bring - hopefully no more big repairs

[brianbrowne]

Sailing Cadoha have a great YouTube channel as well and haven't really gone anywhere in two or three years. It doesn't make it any less watchable. I think seasickness can be a real problem for people who haven't sailed before.

Hey guys thanks for sharing your adventure. Happy New Year. Looking forward to what the year has in store for us all. I’ve been re fitting my Nor’Sea 27 for the past 3 years and am just about ready to put her in the water to see if she still floats. You guys are so fun to watch, because I to started this project with no knowledge about what the heck I was doing, I just didn’t video it all. Wish I had been able to. Be safe.

[zero_to_sailor]

Just found your channel, so I will follow your instructions and go back to the start for a binge watching session. I’m curious….

Happy New Year!
Great look back on 2021, you are doing so well and I worry about towing a caravan!!!
Must get down to see you guys.

Good video guys. It was good to meet you yesterday at the boat show. It's Simon by the way from Ship Happens

[michaelbundy]

Happy New Year to you guys. You certainly have come a long way since saying sorry as you motored into the wall in Norfolk 😃. Oh and Chris the most important thing on the boat is to keep the lady happy so I suggest you get those cushions recovered.

[jayjohnson]

You guys are great!! I'm inspired! Really!

[overlandingomar]

You two are so funny. Can't wait to see how your plans pan out.

[mikesearle]

Well done guys, you’ve certainly had your fair share of boat jobs that needed to be done, all involving £££££! Happy new year and hope to see you around the beautiful south west coast later this year (I can say THIS year now 👏)

[brynnsta]

Happy New Year!! Nice catch up guys, enjoying watching your journey 😀

[SuperLittlewillies]

Great to see you both having a go! It looks like you’re learning and enjoying boat life so much👍🏼, might get to meet up one day as Karen (my better half) and I are starting our journey around the Uk in 2022 if all goes well.

[ianprice]

guys you know what always light at the end of the tunnel and great adventure to come 👌👍👍💵🍻

[wesley]

Incase you not got that far.
Tool list may require a torque wrench, torque angle gauge, feeler gauge and stretch bolts to replace the old head bolts. They dons always come with the head gadget set
