Sailing Melody is the official YouTube channel for the Bennington-Turner Family and our sailing adventures.
We live aboard our 46ft sailing yacht and are currently in North Wales with plans to head south in the Spring and Summer of 2024. Follow along as we prepare Ocean Melody for the wide sea and tie up the loose ends of land life so we can head off on the journey of a lifetime. Read More Read Less
Andy, Melissa, and Jack are doing a fantastic job. They are taking an old derelict steel sailing boat, and turning into a family home to sail the world and experience life. Great family with heart and determination.
This is a wonderful family trying to achieve something really special. It is so interesting to see how they are getting along with the boat and all the challenges they are facing.
This family are great at sharing a very practical and warm friendly approach to their yacht restoration. You can literally watch Melody blossom through the process. It’s excellent!
There are a many chequebook sailing channels out there - this isn't one of them! Starting out with a dream and a proper doer-upper boat, watch out for these guys in the future when all that hard work turns into living the dream - they will have earned every moment
Good to see progress and how jobs are being tackled. Educational and interesting to share information. A mammoth task from abandoned boat to back on the sea, a long journey ahead for the family! Can't wait to see it relaunched and meet again in the sunny Med climes.... Keep up the good work and steady progress!
