Camara Sailing
We are a family of four salty souls that have been living the sailing & cruising lifestyle for over 20 years with both our kids coming ‘along the way’. For us there is no final destination – it’s a lifestyle choice! Our days are usually spent kitesurfing, surfing, spearfishing or exploring!
We are now ‘Living the Dream’ aboard our second boat, an 80ft former Whitbread race yacht which we've rescued, rebuilt and converted for 3.5 years into a comfortable and fast cruising yacht. It was a mammoth project with no outside help or funding but the end result was worth the effort and she’s been our floating home since we launched her in late 2018 taking us to incredible spots around the South Pacific.
As a qualified and experienced boatbuilder and seasoned sailors we share our boat projects with you along with our adventures.
Thanks for watching!
