I am 75, I have lived aboard 2 other times, first a 24 foot double end sail boat in San Diego in the 80's, then a 36 foot houseboat in the 90's and now, still spry, I just popped for a 24 foot Century Antigua cruiser. I am so stoked, I take possession tomorrow on the Mississippi River. Wish me luck.

A tiller is definitely better than a wheel. It gives you better feel of the sail trim, and it’s easy to know where your rudder is pointing. It’s also simple and less prone to failure.

I also prefer a tiller but there only seems to be very limited deflection on that tiller.

I know you are some experienced sailors, but I have some food ideas that I use backpacking, that would work well under sail. Each meal is put in a pint freezer bag and you add 1 cup boiling water, let sit 5-10 minutes, then eat out of the bag. No dishes to wash. First, biscuits and gravy: Take 1 pack ramen and break up into tiny pieces and put in freezer bag. Instead of the seasoning packet, put in 1/2 pack of Pioneer Country Gravy mix. Add 1 cup boiling water, let sit 5 minutes, then eat. Could add some bacon pieces if you have them. Second, Spanish Rice and Beans: Tape 1 pack of Knorr Spanish Rice Side and divide into 2 freezer bags. Then add 1/2 cup Dehydrated Refried beans to each bag. Add 1 cup boiling water and let sit for 10 minutes. Could add some cheese and Fritos if you have them. For breakfast, I put 1 cup Raisin Bran into freezer bag and add 1/3 cup NIDO (or powdered milk). Then add some water, shake, and eat.

First off, you two made such a beautiful little girl! Congrats! That boat is so cool and just what you needed when you needed it! My wife and I love your channel. You both just seem so at ease and you go with the flow which is a great way to be! All the best on this next chapter!

I am really amazed at how much was designed into that boat of yours and it is great how well you have organized it for cruising. Love the tour. I imagine that you had a lot of fun creating the video/tour. I expect this reflects the fun you have had in owning and creating lots of wonderful memories for yourselves and for your daughter. Prayers and best wishes for many years of safe travel and much adventure. Stan - dinghy owner and learned to sail on San Francisco Bay 50 yrs ago.

What a lovely, compact, well designed and very capable sailboat this is. The condition of the boat, in addition to it's other attributes makes it an excellent choice for a solo sailer or couple. Had I come across this boat at $6000 I would have immediately bought her. The picture of your beautiful daughter wrapped up in her cot was really very lovely, this truly is a Love Boat.

I started following you when you were in Indonesia but I'm loving the "new" boat. I grew up in the Skagit Valley, kayaked around Quadra Island, and learned to solo canoe doing the Powell Forest Canoe Route so your channel is a bit of old home week for me. Love watching your transition to small! Looks like it would be an ideal craft for the Great Loop.

really remarkable little cruiser! I had no idea they allowed so much functionality on board. this is encouraging for me as I live in south FL and a pocket cruiser may be just the thing (that I could reasonably expect to afford in my lifetime) to explore the nearby keys. great vid!

HaHa. "I'm Mad with you, hang on a minute while i contort myself" 15 minutes later "SLAM"

Stumbled across this video looking and learning about sailboats. This is too cute!! Lol. What an inspiration that size doesn’t really matter!! Wait, that didn’t come out right. Love this little boat!!

It's gratifying to see that a happy family doesn't let their joy and pride depend on how many feet long their boat is. Very likeable couple !

I'm amazed that your boat still floats. We had a Cirrus in 1971-4 but nowhere near that level of equipment. It was a lovely boat but our children got too big and we upsized. I had every confidence in it and it sailed superbly, being very steady on the helm and faster than most boats up to 24' at the time, but it was the internal space that I most remember.

I can still feel the love between you two as well as the love for the new crew and boat. Keep having fun!

great boat! A lot of people watching this will think they can go grab a 22' and get everything you have but that's kind of a rare bird. I have a 22' South Coast but it has a swing keel so i have a keel trunk inside the cabin and could not stand up inside even without the trunk. No bulkhead door separating the v birth but my birth is full width so I could cuddle if needed. No separate head either, just the porta potty with the issues you pointed out and no inboard engine either. The trade off I can live with is that the boat only draws about 4" with the keel up and she sits low on the trailer so is also comfortable as a camper. If you're looking for a boat you can camp on like this one, be prepared to add about four foot to get all these amenities.

Nice boat! We have a Dana 24 and lived aboard for nearly a year. It’s kind of similar. Fair winds and following seas! A word of advice. The propane cans for your stove should not be stored inside the cabin. If they leak, the gas presents a major danger. One pound of propane might not blow up your boat but it won’t be a good day. Best wishes!

That was fun. I just recently started reading about sailboats, their owners, and their excursions. Some were restricted to certain oceans, others around the world. One husband and wife team were just like you guys, and had their baby with them, and the kid learned to walk while they sailed from Oslo Norway all the way to Auckland. Honest! They had him tethered to the railing. If you'd like to read their book, it's called: "The Cruise of the Teddy" by Erling Tambs. His book was published in the late 1930s but you can still find a nice copy. Thanks again, guys... loved the tour.

I only clicked this video because I live on a 20ft boat right now. Its 7 months by now. Time flies... I live here alone and I have to say; You boat is so much better designed than mine. Surprised how smart everything is, it used every little nook and squeezes everything in. Its really great. Maybe the 2ft make the big difference? Unfortunately there no way that anyone can sleep in the quarter berths (unless theyre very tiny people or children). My hips dont fit sideways so the only way I could possibly sleep in it is on my back. Never understood why they didnt make it a little deeper so a human being can fit inside! It annoys me a little how they cut the interior. If you want to look it up: It is a signet 20 by hurley. The idea was to get the boat and flip it so I can buy a proper one and make the transition from living in tents and sleeping on the couches of people. Then covid19 struck and I couldnt risk anything and was very happy about having a little home. In the end it is better than a tent. And a big plus is that I can leave my stuff on it contrary to before where I always had to carry my backpack with me. You cant just leave that laying around anywhere. Someone might nick your stuff.. But yes. Sorry if I made this all about me. Your boat is very beautiful and very sufficient. Only thing I see is that you might have problems cooking on that stovetop as its just a flat surface and not gyroscopic. Stuff might slide off.

Westerly Cirrus. You have chosen well! I have a 1971 Westerly Warwick, 21' 6", with a 6hp outboard on a US made lifting bracket. It also has the same roller reefing mainsail. Similar interior layout. Mine has bilge ( twin) keels. I think the Cirrus is a fin (single) keeler? They are rock solid little cruisers, built to Lloyd's spec. Thanks for video. Love from Southampton, UK. Nick.

That's the boat I want but I've ever only seen one for sale in the US. I see a lot in the UK on the sale websites though. I like the bilge keel for the draft and that it has a stern rudder for easy attachment of a wind vane.
