Just Love it.

[@drift8021]

Where is this boat now? Do you still own it? Is she for sale?

[@michaelsmith9308]

Great interview, the couple seems VERY happy together, the smiles were contagious! I am SURE the Yacht/sailboat sold the same week at that price for its condition. What a nice layout and command center!

[@Sharpiesailor31]

I thought the story of how they both got started, then met and fell into the cruising life was shared with genuine sincerity and very pleasant to follow and the owner did a nice job giving a complete but relaxed view of the boats attributes. Wishing them success and happiness in there future endeavors. Great name BTW and yes its time to abandon the house and couch and escape. If only I could......Thanks.

[@pauloake6107]

Awesome story, I loved how they both met. I would have Purchase the boat if it were still available

[@stevegrant1103]

Excellent interview - really enjoy hearing the life stories and testimonies of the people out there "Doing It." :)

[@dennisl7236]

Great Story about meeting in Tahoe, lived 45 miles west of there. Great buy for the boat. Thanks, Booby.

[@vickiwhite6374]

I loved hearing your story. You guys are amazing! Good luck with the boat.

[@2021boomer]

Great story. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the tour.

[@bobspamail]

What a great story about a nice couple!

[@SlowBoatSailing]

Wow. What a deal. Sounds cruising ready!

[@kriseriksen4737]

I recently (November) did my IYT Skippers course with Island Spirit (Gulf Charters) and Bill was my skipper. Great bloke to go training with. I had a great time.

[@jessereedpaintingsvmatador7009]

Terrific story, great boat.. Cheers !

[@jimmyjohnson7249]

What a great story they tell. Loved it!

[@Foxtrottangoabc]

Enjoyed listening to their story, boat looks good too 👍

[@VERTICALWisdom]

Well presented, good video production.

[@guinneach]

I took the bareboat course in Pattaya back in Nov and Bill was my instructor. Very knowledgeable, personable, and I had 11 days to pick his brain about cruising. I highly recommend the course and highly recommend Bill

[@honeybees1]

I paid 48.000$ for my 1987 36-2 here on Long Island, a great boat and that's a great price. Thanks Bobby:)

[@MsStrong30]

I'm finally at that point in my life where nothing is keeping me in Pittsburgh. The first door that opens, or I open, I might just walk through and keep on going.

[@Sailingdoodles]

Good for you!

[@Snarkapotamus]

I fled that area back in the early '90s. Great to go back and visit, but couldn't stand the winters..

[@pjsmith970]

Great price on that Pearson. I have a 1991 38 ft Pearson that I bought about two years ago for quite a bit more. Very similar layout and as discussed comfortable and good sailing boat.

[@k2wo1]

Really nice people, living the dream. Great video.

[@niceguy2171]

Good video, and remember Kim from when you went on the early sail in Thailand at the start of the venture with Island/Gulf Spirit. Nice Pearson, and a good quick tour.

[@Wakeywhodat]

I thought she looked familiar.

[@vickiwhite6374]

Yes, and I thought she was really cool then too!!

[@crashkahuna]

That is a nice one and can tell it is well maintained.

[@jonnorousseau3096]

Very interesting, I'm looking at a Pearson 10m sloop and it's great to see that these boats are off shore capable, maybe not the most comfortable on long passages with the fin keel, cheers, feeling more comfortable with the boat I'm looking at

[@BobbyRay88]

This is one of the most wonderful stories I have ever heard. Everyone has dreams so before your time on earth is up make those dreams come true!

[@Keepingittocool]

Good video and nice boat for the money thanks for sharing

[@geoffgelow4241]

Bob, that looks like a good boat for you to call home until you get what you want. Looks to be a good value.

[@michaeleavenson8656]

Love this Sailboat

[@robmanning9995]

I'd love to have a beer with those two. Very genuine and apparently nice people.

[@tenthconcept]

Thanks for the post. This woman is on it! I'm getting close!

[@Ronbc000]

Nice pitch, Good luck

[@rukpeterson7301]

Very well done Bobby.

[@MarkRenkert]

......nicely presented....

[@brianpetersen3429]

Excellent video!

[@jeffhidalgo8457]

I'd buy this right now!

[@cyclomaniac9086]

What cool people with "real life advise" - thanks Bobby

[@ewajarmoszuk8823]

Very nice and clean boat. Great size too. As you said just perfect for two or 2+2 summer holidays. Shame it is not my time yet :(

[@titiantitiam3640]

Wow we need more good people like Kim and Bill and the others... one day will be my lucky day keep the good vibe

[@capnjak69]

Bobby ... this one makes me Smile

[@JConk007]

Partial to my C&C 37, shes not as cruise equiped, but I sail past the pearsons all the time :) Thats a really great boat to start livin the dream for sure! Someone will jump on it for sure.

[@Sailingdoodles]

True! I should have clarified that the cc37 was an excellently sailing boat. Mine just wasn’t set up well for long term cruising

[@sailingsvtesla9052]

I sent an e-mail to the broker. Crossing my fingers we can work something out so I can start my new adventure. I'm selling my house and f250 Superduty and as soon as they sell I'm goin to the deep blue. It is a gorgeous, well equipped boat. KEEP ON SAILIN ON cheers RJ

[@markanthony653]

Great couple, great boat great price,

[@jasonups5386]

That boat will sell for sure ⛵️

[@drift8021]

Wow. Wish I could have bought this!

[@stevesheliflying]

Very nice video story.

[@ramblerandy2397]

Phew, that's a pretty good deal if it's in good condition overall. Lot of sailing and living could be done in that.

[@MrRourk]

Bobby needs a Calendar I think :)

[@waynemcphail7825]

Really like showing some for sale craft like this one!

[@Soupy59]

I wish..... thank you great video

[@kimejenks6702]

the lifestyle isn't as expensive as you might think

[@walterhunter4011]

Very nice couple.

[@Chris-gc1hw]

A year from now, I would be so on this!!! Just started a new very high pay job that can afford me the opportunities to do just this!!

[@DutchStar443]

This is such an educational channel. My vocabulary has now been expanded to include wusband.

[@Methoes123]

Nice boat...

[@jamesphillips3964]

Would be a dream come true!

[@kimejenks6702]

my tagline is.....it's not just a daydream if you decide to make it your life.

[@GSC727]

Darn, I'm based in Chiang Mai during the cold winter months in Canada and was just down the Ocean Marina Yacht Club in Jomtien last week looking to get introduced to the sailing world. Not really much chance to interact with the owners given the layout. Great interview, and pitches for a life shake-up.

[@johnowen9985]

I'm based in Chiang Mai all year. In my previous life I spent a lot of time sailing including a Newport Bermuda race on A J44, 4 trips to the Caribbean from NY on a J160 or Swan 56. I was lucky enough to do a sailboat delivery from Cambodia to Ocean Marina YC. Unfortunately I was too busy helping with a refit and did not have enough to to mingle with other sailors. I would also like to interact with more sailors in Thailand.

[@Michael-cf9lf]

it is a great deal.

[@biodude64]

I want this boat and this lifestyle so much! Now, if I can just find Thailand on the map...Oh, and $25 grand.

[@kimejenks6702]

it doesn't cost as much as you might think!! It's the cheapest way to live, off the grid and very little expenses.

[@claasriese1036]

@@kimejenks6702 It may also cost more than some people think. Too many variables to make generalizations.

[@foundatsea3483]

"Exit The Matrix" - nailed it! Gonna use that lol.

[@osii56]

"Exit the Matrix."

[@wkw4095]

I don't have the desire to sail long voyages to tropical destinations....I enjoy flying to them, renting a car and exploring. I do however love small sailing adventures! Having sold my very simple, very awesome O'day 272 (see my vids). I thought it would be easy to find a modern year 2000+ 32 footer for around $35-50,000 USD. It hasn't been easy or fun and it's discouraging and I'm thinking maybe just give up. After hearing this couple talk about life I think I'll continue in the right direction. Thanks!

[@kevinp100]

I spent my first twenty years in Southern California and the last twenty years in Northern Ca.

[@glenpeters955]

Look at that, you don't need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to live the dream and that's a damm nice spot to start your travels.

[@pathfindergeorgia1117]

They look to be a fun couple

[@hottubz1965]

Doin' It! :D

[@nunziobusiness1509]

I'm sure there was a lot of that goin down on the boat.

[@dalelewis1016]

Wus-band...😁😁

The wasband blew it. Kim's a catch.

[@compagotv]

wow that is a LOW price.. someone got very lucky! Plus already in Thailand.. wow.. missed it dang it!!

Awesome awesome interview,

[@roknrollmonkey135]

"Exit the Matrix" The matrix has you Neo...

[@pirateracer69]

hi guys

[@MaxClark1960]

Would love that boat for my wife and myself but could never afford it as my wife has a disability and I am her carer and only on a pension. I really hate our position as we really want to do the sailing as we love sailing but such is life.

[@Sailingdoodles]

It’s not as expensive as you think. If you bought a boat like this for this piece in that location you could easily live in 1,000 per month for two people in Southeast Asia

[@GregoryLongs]

Tour of boat starts at 11:13

[@jonnorousseau3096]

Didn't Pearson make a full keel boat in this size range??? Or modified fin keel????

[@RykovskyA]

Sale pending status already.... that was quick!

[@murraywestenskow2896]

Cool couple... would follow if they had a channel. (Wish I had his hair.)

[@kimejenks6702]

we thought about that but we saw how much Bobby works and got over it.

[@pjorgerod522]

Hello, did already sold your boat? Thanks, Paul

[@donmiller8152]

way nice boat and the price is right!!!! somebody please buy this boat before i figure a way to leave my present lifestyle and buy this boat and sail away.......

[@kimejenks6702]

do it!

[@Foxbat131]

So did they sell it?

[@joeshovel2]

Looks like a nice boat. I would love to buy it and cruise. I just don't know how I would support myself (food & supplies) while I'm cruising. I dream about cruising. I can afford the boat, guess I'll have to wait 7 to 13 years (sounds like a jail sentence, lol) til my retirement.

[@kimejenks6702]

it's not as expensive as you might think. i didn't have much when i started, i just went for it and kept to a budget. you can go a long way in 5-10 years.

[@Chris-zo5ze]

@@kimejenks6702 So tempting, Kim. How much would you need per month to live on the boat in Thailand? $150 for the slip, phone, food, entertainment, etc... I KNOW you can REALLY rough it, or go crazy but if possible, can you give a rough monthly estimate since you've (I assume) been there for a while? I plan on coming to the sailing school there in a year or 2 once I get my land bound life buttoned up here.

[@kimejenks6702]

@@Chris-zo5ze it really depends on how you eat and drink. phones service is super cheap, like $10 a month, I don't really eat Thai food so our food bill is higher than if we ate the local food, which most people love. beers are $1.50-2 at a shop, $20 a case and more in a restaurant. if I didn't have a job, I would probably eat different, not so much cheese. 250g of cheese is almost $7, that's half a pound. Bread is $2 a loaf, fruit and veg are super cheap. you can go out to a nice dinner with a few drinks 2 people for 1000B, that's less than $30. I good quick snack, 500B for 2 - 15$ and of course the $5 for two still exists with street food and local Thai places. Malaysia is even cheaper, the Philippines very cheap as well and Indonesia is right down the way. You can get away with living for less than $500.month. I was doing that for 2 people at some points in the journey but I pay close attention to spending. we still had some beers and that's the biggest expense, if you don't drink, it's really cheap and you can get buy on just a few hundy a month.

[@Chris-zo5ze]

@@kimejenks6702 Thanks for taking the time to reply! I doubt your boat will still be for sale this summer, but if it is... I'LL BE THERE! I plan on taking the zero to hero class, and if I could pick up a boat, that'd be pretty nice too.

[@ADAMREES-GRITGYM]

Is it still available?

[@Oggiwara1]

Is it still the old german that run the Island View Resort that the boat are moored to? Or have his mid age son taken over?

[@DD-Aerial-Photography]

Not bad, a Day early or six days late

Hi, Do you still have the boat

[@centermid7mb]

"cheapest way to see most of the world". Hardly - it takes a good chunk of change to cruise and maintain that boat which is constant and expensive. However, they are fun!

[@pavichapin]

Please post a cheaper way to see the world than sailing.

[@kimejenks6702]

I have to disagree, if I paid for airfare to only half of the places i've seen, hotels, rooms, taxi, boat trips, eating out, I wouldn't have made it past Tahiti. Proper maintenance and upkeep prevent big issues and it's cheap if you know how to do it yourself. All of the Sea of Cortez, Marquesas, Tuomotus, Tahiti, Moorea, Raiatea, Tahaa, Bora Bora, Suvarov, American Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu (an island there are no tours to get there), Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, Palau, many island in the Philippines, Borneo, Peninsular Malayasia and Thailand. Add up that airfare and a month of hotels in each place, not including any food or entertainment or the experience of being totally free. I've done it, have you? It's not that expensive, I didn't have much when I left and I have a lot left over.

I thought the story of how they both got started, then met and fell into the cruising life was shared with genuine sincerity and very pleasant to follow and the owner did a nice job giving a complete but relaxed view of the boats attributes. Wishing them success and happiness in there future endeavors. Great name BTW and yes its time to abandon the house and couch and escape. If only I could......Thanks.
