Living the Lifestyle

These are the voyages of the sailing vessel Nereus, whose ongoing mission is to live life differently, experience adventure (good and bad), go places we’ve never imagined going before, and build wild stories & crazy fish tales through our experiences on board. After all, it isn’t worth doing unless there’ll be stories to tell after.

Using the “Ship’s Log” drop down menus, you can easily navigate to any log, or you can begin at the beginning of each trip and read chronologically. Enjoy!

As we prepare to leave Florida and return to Las Vegas, we had to move Nereus to safer (and less expensive) digs. Not a trip for fun, this trip was a challenge, both emotionally and physically.
