We had to film LUNA... she is another mega yacht owned by Roman Abramovich, and she just happened to drop anchor right behind us in Grand Cayman. Luna is the biggest luxury exploration yacht in the world, and like her, we're very lucky to enjoy Billionaire views and experience incredible locations. Champaign taste, but we do it on a beer salary.
Now that we're back in the US, it's slumming on old sea walls and dealing with dusty boat yards for a while... we already miss the crystal clear water, warm sun and island life. Hopefully we'll be off the hard and back in the fluid soon.
This blog is about our adventure to live the most sustainable family life we can. Only the three essentials, a roof over our heads, food, and education. From buying and recycling an old boat, to producing our own energy, these are the things we learn along the way and some simple advice to others with a dream.

Odessa Makes it Home
This was our best sail ever! We sailed from Cayman Islands to Key West in 3 days (633 Nautical Miles, averaging 8.5 knots).
It was a gratifying and pleasurable sail, with perfect weather, and perfect company....
We were blessed with everything, from perfect sun sets to wind that offered speed. And best of all, my favorite, calm seas with low swells across the Gulf Stream. We even had dolphins greeting us back to the United States, "WOW!!" is all I can say.
