Living Full-Time on the Water

Living full-time on a sailboat isn’t all sunsets and slow mornings with coffee in hand. Most days, it’s about noticing the little things. The way the boat moves under your feet. That salty layer on everything. The sound of ropes creaking in the night that tells you everything’s still holding steady. Boat life pulls you into the moment whether you’re ready or not. And over time, it gets into your skin, your bones and your senses. This is what that feels like.

This is where the Danish idea of hygge comes in.
