We are Eric, Kimberley, and Distin. We are from Alaska. We started our adventures in Alaska on our Nordhavn 55. We sold her and are now beginning our adventures on a new to us Nordhavn 50.
In this thrilling video, we experience a nerve-wracking situation when we lose all steering control on our Nordhavn boat while navigating the open ocean at midnight! As full-time liveaboards, we rely on our Nordhavn’s robust systems, but sometimes things go wrong at the most unexpected moments. Watch as we troubleshoot, stay calm, and share the lessons we learned about handling emergencies while living on a boat.
If you’re dreaming of living on board a Nordhavn or buying a Nordhavn for bluewater cruising, this video offers a firsthand look at the challenges and rewards of long-term boat life. We’ll take you behind the scenes to see how we manage real-life boating situations—from maintenance issues to steering failures—and offer tips for anyone planning to live aboard or buy a Nordhavn.
Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or new to the world of boating, this video is a must-watch for anyone considering full-time cruising or life at sea. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more boat life adventures and Nordhavn tips!
