Join us as we document our journey sailing around the world on our Lagoon 42 catamaran, Sabado.
Together, we’ve explored the East Coast of the United States, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean. Then we crossed the Panama Canal into the Pacific Ocean. It took us 27 days to sail from Panama to French Polynesia, and we’ve been hopping between remote islands in the South Pacific ever since. We share photos, videos, honest insights into our expenses, tech tips that keep us afloat, and candid stories from every destination along the way.
