Have you ever thought of making a HUGE change in your life so that those precious years with your spouse and children don't slip away? Have you thought of SAILING away with your family, living together on a boat and making an adventure of your lives together?

Here are 12 families who did just that! And in a huge labor of love, they are sharing their stories with us. Read their stories, learn from their practical experience and suggestions, and then go make your dream come true.

Update (2015-16): Sailing Families Revisited. Readers have asked us to update the series – and so we have asked a new (another diverse) group of sailing families to answer these same 12 questions and to share their experiences. Over the next months we will be publishing their answers, together with updates from the original 12 families that contributed in 2010-11.
