What this video covers
A family of four — Alex, Cory, and children Coral and Kai — traces their progression from first-time sailors to liveaboards cruising the Caribbean. They began in 2019 aboard Wally Intrepid, a Hunter 33, departing Lake Erie, Canada, with no sailing experience, transiting the Erie Canal and sailing the eastern seaboard to the Bahamas.0:14 A cracked piston forced them to learn sailing without an engine.0:38 Growing crew size prompted an upgrade to a 1983 CNC Landfall 43.0:45 A subsequent run south was delayed by failing rigging, which they re-rigged before completing the passage back to the Bahamas.1:09 Most recently, after three months of yard work, they sailed through the Bahamas, continued to Turks and Caicos, and reached the Dominican Republic.1:16 The trailer covers the full arc: Lake Erie origins, canal transit, coastal passages, mechanical and rigging failures, a boat upgrade, and cruising with young children.
