In this episode of Go Sea the World, Aubrey O’Hare and Jordan share how they got started living an unconventional life at sea—and why taking the first step matters more than having a perfect plan. Recording from a 51-foot sailboat in Mexico, they talk about choosing freedom over comfort, overcoming fear, and how discomfort often leads to growth and inspiration. From sailing for the first time to swimming with dolphins, navigating fear, and preparing for a passage toward Panama, this episode explores what it really takes to build a life outside the traditional path. Topics include sailing around the world, personal growth, adventure travel, living aboard a sailboat, women in sailing, leadership, fear, and staying inspired while choosing an unconventional life.

In this episode of Go Sea the World, Aubrey O’Hare and Jordan share what it was really like sailing in Greece with Sailing Doodles—from collaborating as creators to navigating chemistry, expectations, and the reality of life on YouTube. We talk candidly about creator burnout, work ethic, thumbnails and algorithms, and what happens when an online connection meets real life. From age gaps and dating myths to sailing YouTube growth and collaboration dynamics, this is an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about building a life—and a career—at sea. Filmed during our time sailing the Greek islands, this episode pulls back the curtain on what it’s actually like to collaborate with another major sailing channel while staying true to yourself and your story. Topics covered: Sailing Doodles collaboration in Greece Life as a sailing YouTube creator Chemistry vs commonality in relationships Online dating vs real-world connection YouTube thumbnails, algorithms & burnout Sailing, travel, and life at sea Subscribe to Go Sea the World for honest conversations about sailing, travel, relationships, motherhood, and choosing an unconventional life on your own terms.

A candid conversation about dating, co-parenting, and protecting your peace while living aboard a sailboat in Mexico—complete with unexpected family reunions, late-night surprises, and redefining love on your own terms.

We didn’t set out to do this. What started as a quiet morning at anchor in Zihuatanejo, Mexico turns into a reflection on how quickly life can change—and what happens when you say yes anyway. In this episode, Aubrey and Jordan sit down over coffee aboard a classic pirate ship to talk about the unexpected chain of events that led to three women and a baby preparing to sail the wrong way around the world. There’s no master plan here. No polished answers. Just honest conversation about motherhood, risk, trust, and the strange clarity that comes when familiar paths fall away. From failed plans and near-misses at sea to the quiet confidence of choosing a different kind of crew, this episode sets the tone for a journey shaped more by instinct than expectation. Along the way, Aubrey opens up about leadership, fear, and the weight of making decisions that affect everyone on board—while learning that there may not be a “right way” to do something as wild as circumnavigating the globe. This isn’t a how-to.It’s a beginning. And the story is just getting started.

Fan Mail! Jake reach out by email and asked us a few really great questions about purchasing a boat for the first time or trying ones hand at buying a boat and selling it for a profit, or what we have been calling a "boat flip".  Hi, love following your YouTube channel. Your pretty much living the life I want.  My plan is in about 3 years to sell my business and live aboard a sailboat at least half the year.  My question is how do you find the boats that you flip?  I’ve been casually looking for a boat for several years and I rarely come across a good deal.  Is it mostly knowing people and right place right time or are there websites that I don’t know about!  I look at boat trader, eBay, Craigslist and even Facebook market place with very little success.  My other question is how do you manage having multiple boats?  My concern with buying something now (assuming I could find something) is I live in Montana and can’t be there to take care of most of the time.  Do you have any suggestions or recommendations for me? A BIG thank you to Jake for his email!
