Sailing Ragdoll
Family of 3 + 3 dogs sailing around the Mediterranean 🌎 Join our adventure!
The sea calls to those who listen—it speaks of freedom, adventure, and the unknown and maybe of little madness? We are Daria, Chris, and Jasper, sailing full-time with our two golden retrievers, Hachi and Luna. We recently said goodbye to our beloved Bernese Mountain Dog, Mimsy (RIP 09.02.2025).
Ragdoll, has taken us from west coasts of Scotland to the Mediterranean. After two years aboard a 47ft monohull, in December 2024, we’ve set sail on a 2008 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 catamaran and we're learning... slowly! Full-time work, homeschooling, storms, sunsets keep us busy.
🐾 Who We Are:
- A family of three + two adventure-loving dogs
- Exploring the world by sailboat, from Scotland to the Med
- No fixed route—just following the wind
