    Hey there! I’m Sue, and I’ve been sailing for about 10 years, mostly on a Catalina 36. My dream is to go full-time as a liveaboard and cruise the Caribbean. I’m currently in the “downsizing my life” phase and researching watermakers, solar setups, and everything that makes long-term cruising sustainable. Excited to meet fellow sailors and get tips on making the leap in 2026.

    That sounds so great, Susan! I hope you get a chance to come back here and tell us some of what you’ve learned. There are tons of people trying to learn the same things as you.

    Hi Sue! Great to meet you! What an exciting time in your journey! Downsizing is major and I am sure figuring out what to part with and what is needed is a daunting task. But it will be worth it in the end!

    I was just talking to Gio and Julie Cappelli about hosting an online course about water makers. Would that be of interest to you?
