Rusty Sailors Take on Shark Bay: A Shakedown Cruise Story | Ep 4

Описание: 🌊 Join us on our three-day shakedown cruise through Shark Bay! 🚤
In this episode of Project Freewheel, we take on our first major shakedown cruise aboard Nautigirl. From rolly anchorages to rogue drones and surprise visits from Shark Bay’s marine life—including dugongs and a marlin—it’s a journey filled with challenges, victories, and plenty of laughs.

We’ll share our reflections on:
✅ Tackling the unknown as rusty sailors
✅ Celebrating simple wins like a serene sunset sail
✅ How we’re transforming a spontaneous life pivot, into a crazy, rewarding adventure

Along the way, we dive into Shark Bay’s rich history, stunning seagrass beds, and the story of Dutch explorer Dirk Hartog’s historic landing. Plus, a toast to our first wedding anniversary and how this life afloat has brought us closer as a team.

🌟 What’s next?
We’re working hard to prepare for a big voyage to Indonesia, balancing life’s curveballs with Jobbo working FIFO and Cheryl landing shutdown work. More boat upgrades, adventures, and stories to come—stay tuned!

💬 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to join our journey. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the episode, tips for new sailors, or just a friendly hello!
