Sailing: The ultimate retirement project


Listen Later

Today we are talking about chasing the travel dream after retirement. My guest is Deb Akey who learned to sail in her 50s and together with her husband bought a sailboat and went cruising for 5 years. We cover topics like challenges managing a rental apartment from afar, going from lake sailors to ocean sailors and some realizations and learnings she had about offshore sailing on a two-person crew. Deb also shares some great advice for anyone considering this lifestyle, especially for those thinking of leaving after retirement.
