Atticus II FOR SALE - Ultimate Bluewater Cruiser

Four years ago, after years of cruising the Caribbean on a very small boat, Desiree and I set out to find the perfect used Bluewater boat. We traveled up and down the US East Coast, interviewed experts, and got to see a ton of great boats. And after our exhaustive search we landed on a Pacific Seacraft 40. To us it had the perfect combination of a hull shape that prioritized safety offshore, an extremely robust construction, and a very livable interior with minimal compromises. But this boat has only ever been used for weekend sailing and we were blown away by just how much time and expense it took to get this offshore dream boat ready to cross oceans and to live off grid for long periods of time.

We’ve spent the last several years dialing in every single system. And now just as the boat has become the lean mean off grid machine that we had dreamt of, we’ve decided to sell her and move ashore. So we figured now would be a great time to show you a complete overview of the systems and design qualities that we love about out extremely outfitted Pacific Seacraft 40 that is ready to take it’s new owners anywhere in the world.

Occasional viewer here: best wishes on the next stage of things for you all. I experienced something similar after living out of a Toyota Troopy in Australia, exploring up and down and in and out. When I sold it, and it was time for my gf and I to walk away from it, we bawled. It was the hardest of farewells to a home, a sanctuary, a vehicle and an old friend that saw us through all kinds of situations. We'd kitted it out to suit our needs, like you have Atticus. And like you, I often catch myself wondering if I'll do it all again one day... although now sailing might eclipse that. Anyway, Atticus now transitions into legendary status in the lore of your lives. Happy trails!

I am reading a lot of comments about how sad people are that you are not sailing any more. But I am excited for you. I am proud of you and I don’t even know you personally. You two are doing what best for your family. I am here for it! Land life here we come! Can’t wait to see your new adventures on land.

Guys, it has been a great ride with you. I came in to this during COVID and stayed with you. What connected me was your genuineness, your openness to share your daily lives and, of course, the sailing to distant shores.

I was so happy when you sailed right through my old sailing area (C&D canal, Elk River, and the Bay) and not just where you go, but how you present the place, the people is very well done. This decision is the right one if you have doubts because you know, the sea is not forgiving of distraction and two yuongun's, well that is distraction extreme. I wish you well on this next chapter and hope you get a good offer for the boat.

This next path of yours I cannot follow along with and it does sadden me some. I live on the land, own a small farm with two horses. Your new path is my existing one and one that needed the distraction of something else as I deal with one very sick horse.

Thank you for sharing your lives, your stories and I wish y'all the best.

We never stop following our dreams when we learn that dreams can change, but the passion remains.

What an amazing journey you allowed us to be a part of. Stoked you’re continuing on YouTube. Thanks so much guys 🇦🇺

[myinfinitestate]

It's absolutely crazy how fast 10 years has come and gone. However, thank you for the incredible memories, Desiree and Jordan. Your friends and fans have been traveling the world vicariously through you. THANK YOU FOR THE RIDE AND 10 YEARS OF INCREDIBLE DESTINATIONS....!!!

[robnee]

Someone said it last week, I enjoy your videos because I get to see places I didn't know existed, but that is only half of the appeal of your videos. I have come to enjoy your company weekly! I enjoy your family and your lifestyle, which will be interesting as it goes in a new direction. Anyone that buys your boat will be getting an awesome set up that we all have been able to watch happen!

[murrayashworth]

First off, your vessel is spectacular and you’ve done an amazing job of outfitting her. Certainly a bitter sweet decision to sell her.
Both you and your wife’s video description, of this beautiful yacht is second to none.
All the best on your sale.
🇳🇿🇨🇦

Last Saturday when you announced the sale of the boat I had tears in my eyes making my wife yell at me. Tears because I have been following you from day ONE. Tears because I am in your heart parting from your boat. I sold my last (4 total boats) 4 months ago after 44 years of sailing all over, Greece, Boston and Florida. It’s a disconnection only sailors can understand how hard it is. May the experience you have accumulated in all, amazing video production and story telling help you build an other successful career along with a happy family you 3-4 of you. I live in the Tampa area and anyway I can help let me know.

[jrmichel]

Hearing your news last week was a succession of a feeling of loss when I thought you weren't going to post anymore, to a feeling of total elation when you said you would continue. Watching you guys has been my Saturday morning ritual for years and I'm very happy that will continue. We love you and God bless!

[stormcrow]

You two have always been our Saturday morning cup of coffee. Seeing the places you've been and watching your family grow has been fun and enjoyable. Thank you for always remaining real. We look forward to your next chapter. Hopefully getting some land and building a homestead to raise your family. Our prayers are with you and your family.

[Artoconnell]

These are the good old days, Raising a family is so much more important, you guys are stepping into the time warp now. The next 20 years is going to rocket past. you guys will be sailing again in what seems like the blink of an eye.
You did it, you lived one dream and are embarking on another, tears in my eyes watching you 2 lovebirds grow into a family. Congratulations, family is really all that matter.

[moralogic]

I was expecting the typical boat tour but this weeks episode is an impressively detailed explanation of an amazing boat. The insights you share about each aspect of the boat show your attention to every detail and true mariner mentality. I’ll miss your sailing videos.

[neilpenfold]

Hey guys. The news that you will be continuing to embark on a new venture, and taking us along with you is magical. I saw a comment last week where a viewer said they'd watch you guys even if you weren't sailing because you're a lovely family and great human beings in general. I stand with the same opinion and look forward to tagging along with your viewers. Can't wait to see what you guys get up to next. All the best 👍

[DanaerysMOD]

So sad to hear you won't be sailing anymore. As someone who has made many decisions I've regretted, may I propose that maybe you could rent for a year, and keep Atticus until you've had a chance to make sure this is the best decision! Sometimes, having some time and space to really think through a major life decision is a good thing. You should know in a year if it's the right thing, and not an emotional decision. Just my 2 pennies. Either way, I'm happy for you both! Thank you for sharing your lives with all of us over the last 10 years. I think of you as "My Sailing Kids"!! ❤️

[Chazmicheals]

I don’t think I have ever commented on any videos although I’ve been watching and living vicariously. Thanks for sharing your adventures. I totally feel you guys are making the right decision. Good luck and god bless it’s been amazing!

[michellereynolds]

I wish I was a millionaire. I'd buy this boat in a heartbeat! You guys have provided me with so much entertainment and enjoyment through the years. While I have, of course, enjoyed the sailing aspect of this channel, I have also enjoyed your perspectives on life, seeing how you've navigated challenges and change, your growth as human beings and your heartfelt commentary on so many different situations & places. But, when one chapter ends, a new one begins and I'm truly looking forward to your new adventures. See ya next week!

[nufsed]

That was one of the most comprehensive boat tours I have seen. She's a beauty, a one of a kind boat. I have been watching you from the beginning, and wish you all the luck in your future endeavors.

[michaelsteel]

Wow Jordan. This boat exudes warmth, protection and confidence. You leave behind a great legacy, which deserves a serious bid from a true enthusiast. Too bad your adventure on the water has come to an end, but I completely understand the motives. I will continue to follow you. Thanks again for this (as usual) clear explanation video.

[rwdyer]

Having raised four children and appreciating the importance of family support, I’m happy for you both. It’s your decision and if this is what you both want, then go for it and don’t look back. No regrets!
❤🎉
