We love a challenge. And this story is all about jumping in head first. In episode one I uncovered the story of how our adventure began, from the first time Bill and I went sailing, to coming to own a 136-foot sailboat. If you haven’t listened to episode one already, start there! In this episode, I’m joined by our intrepid captain Roland, who without him, our adventure might not have been possible. We pick up where we left off with Abide arriving at Belfast's Front Street Shipyard, before winding back time to introduce Roland and how he became our captain. Highlights from this episode: How our captain’s journey took him from cleaning the bottoms of boats to joining our crew.How chartering works, and what it’s like to live on board with people you’ve only just met!How Hurricane Irma tore through our plans.Learning about the process from delivery to sailing the world.How our journey made us see America from a completely new perspective.
