    Cheap mooring or boat slips in pnw

    I'm currently located in the San Juan Islands and getting increasingly interested in hitting the seven seas... I have found great deals in the Anacortes area however the marinas seem to be out of my price range. I want somewhere I can store it while I learn the basics before I live full time...

    Annapolis DIY Boat Show via Ego Alley

    Captains, My bandmate has this idea about having a noise show on a boat. If you're familiar with Annapolis, MD, you know that once a captain makes the sharp turn in ego alley everyone cheers. Well, my bandmate wants to see if they'd boo a floating noise show. We'd have to charter this boat, so...

    I'm searover (not a sailor yet)

    Hi there! I've hitchhiked on and off for years now, and am currently in Spain. I love documenting what's what about hitchhiking and other alternative travel, because it's so underrepresented. Also looking into sailing if I can catch out from a port here, but seems to be challenging for a...

    Looking for info on Grand Cayman

    Hey there! My father got offered a job at the international school on Grand Cayman this summer and I plan on coming along. We're planning to buy a ship of our own and sail down there since the cost of parking in the marinas is way cheaper then rent. We are more vagabondy though (especially me)...

    Howdy, I'm a tall ship sailor and sail bum, looking to share some experience

    Hey, guess this is kinda an intro post but I'll just cut right to the chase. I was looking for other sail bums on the internet, so here I am. I got started back when I was a little lad of 16-17 when I bought a cheap sailboat with some friends of mine. We fixed up that boat for a year or two...

    Sailing lessons in the Northeast?

    Hey all! So right now I'm working on a farm in Richmond VT through HelpX, but that only goes for about another month. I've decided the wandering life is for me, and I'm dipping into the savings I built up this last summer to buy a boat. There are a couple 22-30' sailboats in my price range...

    How regulated is sailing and what kind of barriers would someone face?

    I have no idea how to sail or where to start. But im about to come off of workmans comp after a Muscoskeletal accident I faced at work last year. I'm not sure if I will still have a job after all is said. I have given myself two choices. Hope for a settlement and go to school for nursing in...

I was just going out for a quick jaunt, I thought, so I didn't grab extra food or water, and didn't even check my...
