Hey Mates! So, after much soul searching, life reassembling, suicidal thoughts, and internal monolouge, I have come to the conclusion that it is time to give up land travel and take to the seas! I am learning as much as possible, and gathering dollaz with much haste so as to be able to buy a...

Hey guys, My partner and I have decided we aren't done traveling so we are putting the homestead on hold to sail around for a year or so. We are seriously looking for boats, and are curious about size. We want something easy enough to sail single handed, yet big enough to comfortably house 2...

I'm interested in hitching a ride across the Atlantic on a boat. I've read extensively on the feasibility of the subject when it comes to crossing from Europe to the Caribbean, but nobody seems to talk about the opposite. Does anybody have any kind of experience with sailing across the Atlantic...

With everybody gone to my aunt's or work, I picked up a can of yellow Rustoleum and decided to spray some messages on the underside of an abandoned (I think) river boat up in one of the new developments near where I live. I know you shouldn't do this during the day, but the boat was in a...

My best friend and I decided last summer to buy a sailboat together. We had been sailing in a local small rig regatta since we were about 8 years old so now being young adults with some sort of personal income it seemed like the next step. The boat is an albin vega 27 with a great hull. The...

Not exactly the most detailed picture. But gotta make this happen hah. It isn't like there is a shortage of 2 liters or empty bottles.

In early April of 2013, a group of us got together to sail the SV Rocksteady to Fort Jefferson. This old civil war fort turned national park is located on the Dry Tortugas, a series of islands located 70 miles west of Key West, Florida. Adam, Lauren, and Robert came out from Los Angeles to pay...

The following is an article from the German Magazine NEON. I translated it with the help of Google translate, so it’s a bit rough around the edges, but I think it still conveys the story pretty well. It features many of the friends I was living with in Key West, some of which you may recognize...

Hello, I'm a journalist from Germany, Munich, writing for NEON Magazine (a general interest magazine for people between 20 and 40). At the moment, I'm working on a story about boat punks ... I'll come to Key West next week (9th of June 2013) and would like to meet boat punks in New York as well...

Hey everyone, as some of you may know from my blog posts, my friend Ryan and myself just got a boat in Key West, but hurricane season is coming in a little over a month and a half, so we're considering what or options are for escaping the storms and ridiculous humidity. Unfortunately we don't...

anyone ever hitch a ride on a boat to hawaii out of cali and if so where would be some good docks to meet some sailing folk?

Anyway. Aside from that - I'm liking the idea of getting a liveaboard sailboat and going cruising. Found a couple websites about it. Has anyone else met anyone or actually lived on a boat while travelling? Hobo Sailor Living Aboard Magazine
