Cruising partner

I’m looking for someone to join me for a long-term cruising lifestyle — not just a vacation, but real life at sea.

I live aboard full-time and work remotely in high tech, while also constantly maintaining and improving the boat. Some days are easy and beautiful. Others require focus, effort, and teamwork to keep everything running smoothly.

What this life looks like:

Sailing between incredible places — warm, clear water, quiet anchorages, wild nature
Dealing with reality — weather changes, delays, repairs, logistics
Days when everything flows… and days when nothing goes to plan
Moments of pure magic… and moments that test patience

I’m looking for someone who:

Is ready to actively participate (passages, cooking, cleaning, daily life onboard)
Understands that this is not a holiday, but a shared lifestyle
Can handle uncertainty without stress taking over
Finds satisfaction in both the hard days and the beautiful ones
Is emotionally steady, adaptable, and positive

The right person doesn’t just enjoy the destination — they enjoy the process.

  • Boat descriptionThe boat is my home. She’s beautiful—but more importantly, she’s built like a battleship, ready to take on the oceans. In 2024, I completed a major refit, but with a boat like this, the work never truly ends. Making her stronger, safer, and more capable is an ongoing process. Life on board isn’t just sunsets and beaches. The places we visit and the people we meet are a big part of it—but it’s the challenges that make the experience real. No two passages are ever the same. The ocean doesn’t wait, the weather doesn’t adjust, and plans rarely go exactly as expected. Every crossing brings something new—lessons learned, problems solved, and usually a few new items added to the to-do list. That’s the reality of cruising. And that’s exactly what makes it so exhilarating
