Voyage of Wanderlust: Stories from the Sea Gypsy Life
Sharing the lessons, beauty, and challenges of voyaging
Welcome Aboard Wanderlust
Real sailing. Real seas. Real freedom.
Walt has been voyaging the world’s oceans for nearly two decades, and together we’ve built a life aboard Wanderlust, our 2014 Passport 545 Aft Cockpit. She’s carried us on bluewater passages, into remote atolls, and taught us what it takes to thrive off-grid.
Through Voyage of Wanderlust, we share seamanship, boat systems, and the real joys and challenges of voyaging life—not the influencer gloss, but the unvarnished truth of living by wind and anchor.
Meet Wanderlust
Wanderlust is more than our sailboat—she’s our home, our partner, and our bluewater passagemaker. A 2014 Passport 545 Aft Cockpit, she was designed for serious bluewater voyaging: strong hull, solent rig, and systems built for life far from marinas.
From gales offshore to still nights at anchor, Wanderlust has proven herself a true passagemaker. Every mile under her keel carries not just us, but the philosophy of living simply, independently, and with intention.

Our email list is where we share the occasional update from SV Wanderlust: offshore passages, anchorages, and the lessons that come with living full-time aboard a sailboat.
Occasional and intentional.
