Thanks for dropping by, we're Aannsha & Barry the 'wet grey nomads'.

We live full time on board our 1995 Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45.1 and we have a long term plan to eventually sail her back to Australia. This channel is a mix of sailing, exploring and the telling of a story of how two townies became salty sea dogs.

The aim here is to document the journey of two mid fifty year olds, who had never set foot on a yacht before taking sailing lessons in Gibraltar in February 2018, buying a yacht is Spain and getting sailing experience in the Med before heading across the Atlantic.

Along the way we'll share our experiences of the various countries we visit and our complete sailing journey. This is more about the journey than the destination and it doesn't matter how long it takes us to get there. We hope you can come along too.
