You read that right… the in-laws are aboard! In this episode, our parents join us for 10 days of tiny yacht living on our Nordhavn N41 trawler, our full-time floating home.
One bathroom. No A/C. Drenched dinghy rides. Windy anchorages. And more laughter and memories than we ever expected.
After flying into Georgetown, Exuma, we set off up the Exuma Island chain, exploring hidden caves, stunning sandbars, and iconic destinations like Staniel Cay, Rudder Cay, Black point and more!
Over a dozen islands. Hundreds of nautical miles. Epic hikes, snorkeling, yacht club moments, and real family connection.
This is tiny home life at sea — and we’re so grateful to have shared it with our parents.
Locations Featured:
• Georgetown, Exuma
• Staniel Cay & Staniel Cay Yacht Club
• Exuma Land and Sea Park
• Rudder Cay & more
🎥 If you love boat life, Bahamas cruising, tiny homes, or real travel stories — this one’s for you.
