They say when it rains it pours, but for boat projects everything is harder than it seems... Mainly because we are diving head first into something we've never done, but that's how we learn! Our epoxy touch up on our transom is finally finished after 4 attempts and now we begin prepping for paint! We have to re-paint our transom, paint the water line and accent line, and finally paint our hull. One thing leads to another and unfortunately all our paint was rubbing off! We hope you enjoy following along, and learn what NOT to do 😁 If you have any questions about our decisions or just want to give us some advice, let us know in the comments! Thanks for watching!

We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive head first into boat life, and kick off America’s Great Loop. The good, the bad, the ugly – and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.” Just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem. Thank you for following us along our journey! ________________ Note — Some of these links are affiliates. We recommend stuff we love and if you like it also they might give us a small kick back.
