How WE Afford To Sail the World FULL TIME | A WE|Sail EXTRA EPISODE

[@MrLebro11]

I’m so wrapped to come across you both. So down to earth and genuine. No filters...tell us like it is. To get where you are is hard work & determination. My husband & I are currently on the same journey. We’re at the point of clearing debt. It sometimes seems slow, so thank you for the inspiration & motivation to keep moving forward. Cheers to you both living the life🥂

[@WEsail]

Wow what a beautiful compliment. Thank you so much. How exciting for the both of you. WE are huge advocates for everyone seeking this lifestyle and adventure. While there comes many challenges and learning ahead, that's what drives you to live life to its best. Best of luck to you both! Don't call it a dream, call it a plan! Cheers, WE

[@GalenFocht]

Just today watched your episode 204. It was great. Warren, I need to say I am very impressed with your ability to repair so MANY things on the boat. Though it is at times a pain in the butt I’m sure but you seem to thrive on the repair projects. Erica, your photographs are phenomenal and video editing too. The two of you pair very nicely! Just watching the alcohol flowing like it does on your videos does worry me at times. I like you guys to much. Keep up the great videos and relationship. I really do look forward to each Wednesday now since I found you two on YT!😊😊

[@WEsail]

Well thank you so much for commenting, we love to get good ol feedback like this!! We do enjoy an evening drink (or a few if friends are present) but definitely keep it under control, promise 😉

[@AfricanFlightStar]

Amazing accomplishment at such a young age, well done and thanks for sharing! 👍🏼⛵️👏🏼👏🏼

Thanks for being so open! YOU GUYS ROCK!!! BEST OF ADVENTURES IN YOUR COMING JOURNEY! 😀

[@darrinmazur2624]

Great information, thanks for sharing. I just bought my first sailboat last week! MacGregor 26 lol.

[@WEsail]

No that’s great!!! Congrats, that’s very exciting!!

[@tonymartel4697]

Thank you guys for the obviously sincerity for your boating start and amazing adventures, and price breakdown. Picked up a few things I never thought of ( renting out the house for income) Safe travels!

[@WEsail]

Our pleasure! We know its possible so just want others to know as well if thats what they want!!! Cheers Tony!!

[@surfpaddletravel]

Appreciate your openness. Thank you.

[@OldGuyGolf]

I wish you two the best. This is my dream some day. Hoping in the next 6-10 years I can be there. I have a 13 year old that needs raised and then we are sailing.

[@Retired-nohurry]

Great informative video. Thanks for the transparency.

[@WEsail]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks Curt!!

[@louisedews3757]

Very inspiring and informative. Thanks for sharing

[@NaturalLivingwithZenana]

So fun to meet you two in Hana today! 🤙🏼🌞🌺 Excited to follow your sailing journey! We'd love to see you when you get to Portland. Don't hesitate to reach out. 😉

[@WEsail]

Yes so great meeting you too! Looking forward to your channel as well! Enjoy the rest of your time on the island and we would love to meet up again in Portland!

[@scottpetrich1346]

Y`all are making a good impression on this world......Cheers from your northern neighbor....70 mi east of YNP...

[@RickFuhrmann]

Can’t wait⚓️🌴

[@jeff9312]

Loved the video! Super helpful. Makes me think I can't wait to go full time!

[@WEsail]

You can do it! Its been so worth it, good to hear from you - thanks for the message, stay cool out there Jeff!

[@TheCvilliot]

well done and very interesting, I too, was curious How can they do that? very impressive you had a goal and acheived it, Great Lifestyle, enjoying the Videos

[@WEsail]

Thanks so much Cindy. We believe that if you set yourself a goal and put that energy to the universe than you will achieve everything you ever want! We feel like we hit the jackpot and are so happy that we are living this alternative lifestlye! Thanks for watching!

[@BB-jf6lx]

Great info and story. Thank you! Looks like you are at Isla Taboga

[@WEsail]

Yea we shot this at Isla Tobago. Nice pull. Thanks Brad!

[@stevendews1984]

A point well made, living on a boat makes us realise just how much 'junk' you don't really need to live an enjoyable and fulfilled life....personally, a lawn mower is at the top of the list!

[@traveltoonsbymp]

Well done! Informative video!

[@johnmcmart]

And you do it fairly well... 😁👍❤️

[@jimmiphaze5785]

u guys did it right.....smart

[@never2oldadventures]

That was some great info and advise. We have tossed around the idea of sailing but the financial part has put a hold on it for now. Until our adventures cross, fair winds and full sails

[@WEsail]

Glad it was helpful! Always good to hear from you, thanks for watching and the comments!!

[@mrjbbarker1947]

Great work.

[@OurCabinInThewoods]

Thanks for the video.

Great video!!

[@southernfriedkiwi7726]

Jesus, that price for the cat was a steal, compared to what the same year cat costs now in 2023. Yacht world has one (2014) for $440,000! The cat market has gone crazy.

[@dubuandmore7907]

Hi Erica, hi Warren, many thanks for to be so open. Just a question. Yoi own know a bigger FP. Is the monthly average still on 3000 dollar?

[@TheDangerz]

Couple differences (twists and turns) along the way... but pretty much our story exactly! Good on you guys!

[@WEsail]

Nice guys, thanks for commenting!! Where are you these days??

[@TheDangerz]

WEsail We’re currently in Grenada for the hurricane season, then likely heading for the western Caribbean (had been looking at a Pacific crossing... but maybe now’s not the best time)

[@erniejones5361]

Thank You ⚡️this helps

[@WEsail]

Glad it helped, thanks for watching and the comment too! Cheers

[@dssque1]

Thanks for the video, I love when people aren't squeamish about money! :-) Aside from Patreon and viewer support are there many opportunities for casual labour at the various locations? . My career in healthcare doesn't lend itself to remote working !

[@WEsail]

Much appreciated! And no unfortunately not much opportunity for labor jobs, all these areas we are going have PLENTY of locals willing to work for MUCH cheaper than any of us would be (some as low as $10/day, not kidding) But where theres a will.... CHEERS

[@kemac3331]

Can y’all give me an idea roughly about what would be a good amount to keep set aside in savings? I could buy the boat but I worry about how we will get monthly expenses, I was thinking about maybe buying a small home and renting out to keep us afloat and then maybe put money down on a boat and finance the rest. The idea of flipping y’all’s home is a remarkable idea and think that’s what I would lead more towards, my husband is an electrician and does automation but he can also fix anything including rebuilding motors on anything That runs off electric or gas. So he can definitely do all the maintenance to the boat. My concern would be replacement parts cost and of course groceries per month, oh and also boat insurance! But was just wondering realistically how much is a good amount to keep set aside in savings? Any info on that would be a huge help to give me an idea. Would like y’all’s input..... Thanks in advance if y’all are able to answer my question.

[@peckerhead5153]

Is that Toboga in the background? Nice place to chill!

[@WEsail]

It sure is. It was a nice little island to sail to after we crossed the Canal. Good Pull!

[@lionelmandrake9413]

No mention of the banzai pelican?

[@keyaggie]

Just found your channel. Very nice. What do y’all do for health insurance and is that calculated in your monthly expense? Thanks

[@WEsail]

Hi Kim, terribly sorry for the delayed response. Glad you found our channel and appreciate your views! WE actually do not have health insurance. We thought about getting it, but a lot of times the health care in other countries are so much more affordable. Just depending on where you go and what you are most comfortable with. We stay as healthy as possible and have a pretty good first aid kit aboard. Both Warren and I take very good care of each other and have our health to thank for that too. Some cruisers we have spoken to they get a travel health insurance plan while they sail. Now I don't know what the costs of that would be but if you're in good health and generally have no pre existing conditions, you know health insurance is just a costly expense. Thanks again for watching!

[@peterstarkey1360]

Great move NOT to sell the house....rent it out to get a regular income & paying it off in the process.....brilliant

[@mrdave22]

i've got my speedos on and am inflating the inner tube. see you in hawaii

[@WEsail]

Glad we keep you inspired man! and that you are getting those thighs tanned.

[@mrdave22]

@@WEsail the upper thigh tan is everything lol. glad you appreciate my sense of humour.

[@mutestyles]

You will have to take off the speedos and use them as a sail

[@mrdave22]

@@mutestyles oh you know me so well. lol

[@starlight7830]

You must be related to "Brady" !

[@BarracudaHawk]

Great videos guys but why is the sound often in mono not stereo? Your speech is mono Then suddenly the background music is stereo.....

[@WEsail]

We had a hard time with the editing for a few videos, hopefully we have it all sorted out by now!

[@danaparedes5613]

I think I recognized that anchorage. I'm still not convinced you aren't secretly trust fund babies. I hope you can make up that $ you are getting by dipping into your savings. If you need hints on saving more... Meanwhile I may need to figure out how to get more Patreons for you! Sail On!

[@WEsail]

AWW thanks Danabanana! Hahah we promise you not trustfunders, but we do know how to work hard. WE are always open to how to save more of course and we are thinking up ways on how we can keep on keeping on, because THIS IS THE LIFE FOR US!

[@bizim_eller]

👍👍🙂

[@familyupgrade]

I love the content, but guys. You NEED to sort out the sound! It is mono, in one ear. Figure it out.

[@WEsail]

Working on it! We totally agree, sound is SO important, Thanks for the message!

[@familyupgrade]

@@WEsail - what edit program do you use? Can we try to make the one-band sound go to 2 bands in edit? In my (lightworks) its really easy to just add another band and connect the two to make a stereo sound.

[@AprilHilton1]

I’m working on minimizing the household now.

[@ttengineer404]

Did you sell the Ram?

[@WEsail]

Ya sadly I did

[@christoffer1973]

Great videos! Would love to sell everything and bye a catamaran... But It cost the double for me. I need the boat to fit wheelchair. But that is my goal now. A cat whit ramp from the deck so boarding can be done whit wheelchair. So after the hospital fail I still fight whit my lawyer to get money back. When I do I think I can bye a million dollar boat and upgrade it.

[@WEsail]

Wow sounds amazing, we are hopeful for you, stay in touch!

[@ianrabie1737]

no sound on this episode

[@WEsail]

Hey Ian we really appreciate the heads up but we are a little confused on this one because it’s been posted for so long and no one else has had this issue, and we checked the video on our end and it has sound, so not sure what’s happening!

[@ianrabie1737]

@@WEsailSorry quys it may be the connection i had at that moment i have subsequently watched a few more episodes today Panama and Costa Rica and it was fine again. I love your channel so earthy and love the interaction between you two so entertaining. Thanks you two.

[@katieandjerrywhite9004]

Hi Guys. What length is your boat and how many did you look at and / or survey before you got this one?

[@WEsail]

Hi guys! Its a 40 foot boat and Warren spent hours, days, weeks scanning yachtworld for the boat until he flew to Montenegro to check out a a boat that was within our budget and get a survey done. It was exactly the same boat we have now but far less equipped and it just didn't have the love and honestly the location that we wanted. And in fact, while he was in there looking at that boat, the listing for the boat we have now came up and it was outside of our price range but had all that we were looking for and more. So we actually backed out of the one in Europe and then bought our boat sight unseen. So in all, we seriously looked at just 2 and the rest were just online searches until the right one came about.

[@zzman5306]

OMG 3300 mortgage/5500 for rent? I can't even fathom how people can do that. I love Michigan.

[@WEsail]

it is pretty crazy isn't it. Colorado real estate market is on another level.

[@richsander1118]

That seam to be in line with other cat cruisers

[@WEsail]

Oh good to know!

[@AG-so4gl]

Patreon, really. Puzzled look

[@WEsail]

Really what? WE have Patreon to support our video making and not our actual adventure.

[@rorytrue2835]

Omg. 5500 a month for rent. Jesus. Must be Vancouver
