Hello. We are team Moby-Dick!

A family of five, living in the Netherlands. We share a passion for sailing and the outdoors. A few years ago, I started to write about our travels and the projects that we undertook to improve our Catalina 36 mk II.
My earliest posts are in Dutch, but since I noticed some of my stories gained a lot of interest from abroad, I try to contribute in English as well.
We hope you will enjoy this blog, and feel free to leave a message below!
