Living on a 62 Foot, 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath Yacht

For many people living on a 62’ yacht with 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms seems like a dream and unattainable. Others make it happen as our friends Jim & Liz have done.

They retired a couple of years ago and bought their dream boat. It’s amazingly comfortable boasting more room than many apartments, with state of the art technology , all the amenities of “home”, and has some of the most incredible inlaid wood throughout.

Jim & Liz started their adventure on the East coast, and had planned to give it 1 year . Then they would make a decision to continue or not. Well, they just completed their 2nd year and still loving it!

They’re currently moored in Oxnard, Ca, for the next month, so we were able to visit them on our recent bike trip down south. They’ll be heading to La Paz next for a number of months. (Here’s a shot of some of the gang)

We spent a day with them going out to the Channel Islands and were surrounded by dozens of dolphins for about 15 minutes. They teased us and played around ~ what an absolute treat! (My photos didn’t do it justice!)

Do you have a dream lifestyle big enough to go after? What is it?

Until next time, J.
