Mike Ventura Sailing

Hi, my name is Mike Ventura. I live on a little 23-foot sailboat called Puddle Jumper, enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of nature around the coastline of New Zealand and (someday) beyond.

The liveaboard lifestyle is both rewarding and challenging - brutally demanding at times and stunningly beautiful. It is a life of extreme contrast where the weather is your best friend one minute and a harsh rival the next.

The ocean is my soulmate; the fish and seabirds - my brothers. This little boat is my home.

Come along with me as I explore the world in my tiny boat, and experience through my videos the wonders of a nautical life. I'll do my best to share the tips and tricks I learn along the way about living off-grid in a small sailboat, and maybe someday you'll join me out here.
