The Wild History of Our Free Sailboat - Pearson Triton 28 | Ep. 7: The Suburban Mermaid

Описание: We didn’t just get a free sailboat — we inherited her entire history.
This Pearson Triton 28 has sunk twice… and somehow, she’s still here.

⸻

This is the story of our free Pearson Triton 28 — a classic sailboat with more lives than a cat. Before we ever dreamed of sailing anywhere, we had to understand what this boat has already been through.

In this episode of The Suburban Mermaid, we break down the wild history of the Pearson Triton 28, why these boats are known for surviving just about everything, and how our boat managed to sink twice and still end up floating in front of us. From her past owners to her current condition, this is the real story behind the boat that refused to quit.

We’re Jessie, Jay, and baby JoJo — a family navigating parenthood by the water as we restore a sailboat and learn everything from scratch. This isn’t a highlight reel or a how-to — it’s the honest beginning of a long journey.

If you love sailboat stories, classic boats, family adventure, or watching people figure things out in real time, you’re in the right place.
