Sailing isn’t always smooth seas… but it’s always worth it.
On the way to Marina Del Rey in Lombok, our forestay decided to give us some trouble. While Jason climbed the mast to check it out, the rest of us reminded ourselves of a sailor’s saying: ✨ “Sailing is fixing boats in exotic places.” And honestly? If we have to do repairs, what better place than here — turquoise waters, island views, and a whole lot of adventure waiting once the job’s done. Later, we dropped anchor at Gili Yassahan… and let’s just say, it felt like finding a little island home of our own. This is what life aboard is all about: freedom, problem-solving, and unforgettable places most people never get to see. Want to experience this lifestyle for yourself? That’s exactly what we teach at Learn to Live Aboard. From boat handling to real-life problem solving, we’ll help you gain the skills (and the confidence) to sail into your own adventures.
