Chapter 17 – No Room In The Marina! Proteus Rising (Travel Life) – Book One (Buy A Boat)

In this episode, we learn that we’re behind the power curve in finding a marina for SV Elli so we can finish our refit. Finding space in the greater Seattle area, which is called the recreational boating capital of the nation, is proving to be a seemingly impossible mission. So we also start to look for moorage up near Vancouver, B.C. where we’ll be cruising extendedly for a few years while our son is at University. We also update you on our plans and introduce you to a couple of our sailing mentors.

Chapter 16: Difficult Conversations! Proteus Rising (Travel Life) | Book One (Buy A Boat)

https://youtu.be/Eb2MWt8Qnko

In this episode, we have some difficult conversations with our youngest son about this five-year plan to sell the house, buy a boat, and travel nonstop. We also have to do some deep problem solving regarding where to keep the boat, since we went a little backwards and bought the boat before we sold the house, and we still are attached to 9-to-5 jobs.

Chapter 14: Choices, Repairs & Purging! – Proteus Rising (Travel Life) Book One (Buy A Boat

Nothing like having your boat 100 miles away and get a phone call that the keys are missing and no one can find your vessel!

In this episode Tank decides on which university he will attend as a college football player, we begin the massive job of purging our suburban life, and then make another quick run for boat work, because we were notified they moved the boat, didn’t know where it was, nor could they locate the keys!

Chapter Ten: Taking the Helm – Survey & Sea Trial Part 2! Proteus Rising – Book One

Even feeling the start of a virus, this guy was not going anywhere that wasn’t on this boat.

In this episode we continue our adventures in Anacortes, Washington as we put our intended sailboat through the paces of a detailed Survey & Sea Trial; however, the day is thwarted with a adrenaline hangover with a touch of flu. More importantly, did this Bayfield 36 pass the test?
