In this week's episode of the Liveaboard Sailing podcast, I sit down with Steve Payne, a liveaboard cruiser and YouTube creator who has been sailing around Europe for the past few years. I start off by asking Steve the age-old question, "why live on a boat?" and delve into his journey from being a professional photographer and filmmaker for decades to becoming a YouTube creator in the sailing world.
We also explore the joys of the liveaboard lifestyle, and his experience sailing through the French canals. Additionally, we touch on the Friendly Flag project that Steve started, that encourages friendship and socialization on the water.

This week we’re doing things a little differently, the main difference being that you won’t hear me in this episode! I asked previous guests, Jack and Sonya, from Two the Horizon to send us a bit of a real-life update as they approach their one-year anniversary of being on the move. In their first year of cruising, they left California, went up to Canada and then south to Mexico on their Passport 42.
In the first episode I did with Sonya and Jack you learned that they had lived aboard in the San Francisco Bay area for many years and operated their own boat detailing business. In this episode, Sonya and Jack flow freely from one topic to another as they look back at their first year of cruising. They talk about some of the surprises they found out about Mexico, and they share some good tips on boat maintenance while on the go. There's also an insightful look at social media as cruisers. Also heads up for anyone interested in electric sailboats, listen to the end to hear Sonya and Jack's update.

This week we are going all in on boat projects! 🛠 My guests are Chris and Kelly from Youtube channel Sailing Adrift and they have just recently completed a multi-year refit of their sailboat from the early 1970s. In fact, at the time of recording, they were just one week away from splashing and it was really great to chat with Chris and Kelly at this point in their journey. They had been working really, really hard, completely rebuilding the boat – and they filmed the whole thing for Youtube – and they actually didn’t have any sailing experience, so all this work was built on the idea that the sailing life will be as amazing as they think it is. So join us as we chat about how they survived the multi-year refit, what it entailed and what’s next.

This week we are talking about crewing on sailboats and super yachts ⛵️🛥 My guest is author Regina Meyer, whose book Change of Course is a tale of international adventures, sailing across oceans and a bit of a memoir of Regina’s time spent living in Antigua. In this interview I ask Regina about tips for anyone interested in being crew on other people’s boats, how to avoid nasty surprises when choosing a boat to crew on, and Regina also reflects on the two sides of Antigua she experienced: living in a rural village with no electricity, and working on a $50million super yacht – all within a few miles from each other.
