The real budget. The months where the numbers didn't work. The emergency fund that was supposedly untouchable. And what happened in Australia when the money stopped being a budget question.Same trip. Same bank account. Significantly different experience of both.Two Skippers, One Boat is a new series from Mothership Adrift. Eight years. Forty thousand miles. Forty countries. Two qualified skippers who also, somehow, stayed married throughout. We're going back through all of it (money, education, socialisation, risk, coming home) and we don't always agree on what happened.It turns out the biggest talking point wasn't the headline budget figures. It was the fact that we sailed for eight years with no medical or travel insurance, and why that decision made more sense than it sounds. 💙 SUPPORT OUR CHANNELS:A big THANK-YOU to our MOTHERSHIP PATREON family who make these videos possible.
