WARNING...THIS MIGHT MAKE US QUIT VANLIFE! (don't tell Mr. lemon!)

Описание: We’re trading van life for boat life for 48 hours on the St. Johns River in Jacksonville, Florida.

Our friends from Mathers on the Map are currently completing the Great Loop... a 6,000-mile boating journey around the eastern United States and we’re joining them for one leg aboard their 48 foot yacht.

We board at Port 32 Marina, cruise the St. Johns River, and anchor overnight in Black Creek, a tributary of the St. Johns. This 48-foot motor yacht has three cabins, two heads, holds over 500 gallons of fuel, and weighs more than 40,000 pounds.

We’re not boaters -we’re van lifers. And Bob has one goal: earn time at the helm and learn how to pilot a yacht.

Is boat life better than van life? And could we ever do the Great Loop ourselves?

❤️ OUR MISSION
We’re Bob and Hillary, a married couple who quit our jobs to chase a long-time dream of traveling the country in our RV. Through our journey called The Lemon Route, we’re working toward visiting all 50 states, turning breakdowns, detours, and expensive mistakes into stories, lessons, and a little lemonade along the way, all while showing what RV life really looks like for everyday people.
