    We hope you enjoy this slightly different episode.

    Watch our liveaboard life and what it's really like to live full-time on a 46ft Venus Ketch. We sail from anchorage to anchorage, country to country living off-grid most of the time.
    We are a real genuine couple that are not out to impress, we are who we are and enjoy life to the full.
    Follow us each Friday to find out where we are and what we’ve been up to.
    Our videos are no more than 2 weeks behind real time.
    We intend to SAIL AS FAR AS WE CAN FOR AS LONG AS WE CAN.
    Thanks for watching, The Cordelians Steve, Annette & Gus 🥰 ⛵️ 🐾

      Yes, it was a great launch for Steve, he really enjoyed it. I'm glad you enjoyed Steve talking, normally lol. I told him he needed to finish the video with his thoughts, which I thought was good. Some of the footage was not brilliant, because it was taken on a phone and did you notice the Insta 360 footage was not that good too? Thanks for watching xx 🥰⛵🐾
