Voyage of Tranquility

In March 2023 we embarked on our biggest adventure so far! After 1.5 years of searching for our floating home, we bought “Tranquility” in Sweden with a dream to sail the world.

Now, it’s been 2 years since we started and sailed two intense seasons in Europe. During that time, we made our maiden sail from Orust Island in Sweden and crossed winter Baltic Sea to Poland. Departing in snow, from ice covered marina in Henan, was an unforgettable experience. Also, we will always remember docking in our home country for the first time ever! We’ve spent one month in Gdańsk, doing essential upgrades and repairs so we could complete our around Europe trip to Greece in 2023. Once we were ready, we said goodbye to friends and family, cast the lines and headed West.

After sailing 4700 NM and learning new boat and a new lifestyle but also discovering hidden gems of European coastline in 10 countries, we’ve reached our goal for 2023 – Greece, our favorite cruising ground so far. You can read detailed description of our 2023 Voyage in Modules on our blog. Further parts will be published soon!

In winter 2023/2024 we hauled out the boat in Preveza, Greece and for 3 months we’ve been preparing her for future adventures with us. Here, you can read about all upgrades we did that winter:

2024 season started on March 1 and ended on December 2 in Almerimar, Spain. We spent it entirely in the Mediterranean Sea. During this time, we sailed a distance of 3,967.5 NM, visiting 56 islands in 5 countries. We sailed around Greece, Italy, France and Spain and for the first time we arrived in Malta. We docked in 32 different ports/marinas and anchored in 92 different anchorages. At the end of the season, our total distance sailed is 8677.5 NM since we have owned “Tranquility”. On our blog, you can read 
Summary of 2024 season in the Med.

Our goal is the journey itself, not the specific point on the map. We plan to sail, dive, hike and explore our blue planet wherever our floating home can take us.
After further upgrades of our boat in Almerimar, Spain, we plan to sail towards colder climates. We don’t announce our goal, as 2025 season will be very unpredictable and intense. We will see how far North we can reach!

We invite you to be the part of our journey, welcome on board!
