@sailingrubyrose and @Tulasendlesssummer have recently received their new @SeawindCatamarans so we thought it was a perfect time to share an honest review of of our experience after buying a new Seawind 1600 Catamaran [3 years later]; working through the warranty issues, what we’ve learned, loved, and what we would have done differently.
#boatlife #catamarans #livingonaboat
We’ve sailed from the Florida Keys up the US East Coast to Maine, back down to Florida, over to the Bahamas, back to Miami, down to Panama, through the Canal and this year crossed the Pacific Ocean to French Polynesia, sailing the Marquesas, Tuamotus and now Society Islands. We’ve covered about 12,000 nm over the course of 3 years and we’ve been living on board for the entire time with the exception of a few weeks here and there.
Thanks so much for joining us this week! If you enjoy the video give it a thumbs up, leave us a comment down below and be sure to subscribe to our channel.

If you're new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin & Fabio Potenti, & our dog Yoda. We're a small family living aboard our catamaran, SV Wanderlust, sailing to Harbors Unknown. Exploring the world, connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how great food can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. Seeking to balance the desire to explore and travel to beautiful, remote locations while leaving no footprint, minimizing the Hawthorne effect of the observers who change the environment she or he observes.
We hope to inspire people and showcase the possibility of living an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment, all while keeping it real. Sharing the trials and tribulations of living off-grid, acknowledging the discomfort of detoxing from the modern world, finding pleasure in the subtleties of nature and joy in simplicity. Attempting to understand what makes the world tick and tock but also trying to gain a deeper comprehension of ourselves and identify what will satisfy that hunger for further exploration, for purpose. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world! Subscribe now to join our sailing adventure.
