$5/moSue ShihYeah Baby! You're supporting real people making real stuff so we have a bunch of goodies for you: You will get early access to our YouTube videos before it is released to the masses and receive an invitation to our WhatsApp Patron Only group chat where you can play an active part in our journey day-to-day. This is where you can influence how we refit the boat; where we sail; and the types of videos we make. Or just grab some popcorn and follow the chats of how we seek out new sponsors or the struggles of moving a big family from land to sea. You'll also get exclusive behind the scenes clips and special invitations to our Patron only livestream events. And you will have a chance to let us host you and a lucky person of your choice to join us for a week on an all-expense paid BoatLife adventure! ---------- At this level you are making our videos better by buying us the endless caffeine and snacks required to get through the long hours of editing and the night shifts on passages!

$10/moChopped ScallopsWow, you really want to help us! We're so thankful we just have to give you a Shout-Out in an upcoming video! And we'll also invite you to our multi-day Adventure Meetups along our route (Sail together, Party on the boat, or just Explore.) ---------- At this level you are making our videos better by funding the endless memory cards and hard drives it takes to store all of the footage we shoot! This allows us to shoot MORE and have BETTER content to choose from when it comes to editing!

$25/moUnagiSweet! So Sweet! I'm at a loss for words at the moment, so let me give you my number and let's talk later when I call you to thank you personally for supporting the dream. And because you mean so much to us, we will also send you a personalized video message. ---------- At this level you are making our videos better by funding better cameras and gear so our videos can have higher picture quality and crisp audio, as well as replace the drones that somehow keep crashing/disappearing/drowning. Oh and GoPros, why do they keep sinking?

$50/moEscolarIs this real life? We are eternally grateful! Send us your picture because it's going on our Wall of Love which shows up regularly on our videos! We'll also give you access to secret videos we don't share anywhere else. Like that time we flew one of the kids with a bunch of massive balloons! Or that time I was tricked into eating pig brains in Vietnam. ---------- At this level you are making our videos better by funding the epic video ideas that we just can't achieve on our own. Like making the world's largest [>20 person] stand-up paddle board one day! Or surviving a week in a real liferaft in the middle of the ocean!

$100/moUniThank you for believing in us so much! We're so moved that we're literally going to rename one of our kids after you...but only for a month or 2. No, not kidding--follow the episodes to find out which one becomes your namesake! ---------- At this level you are making our videos better by making our wildest dreams come true and changing our lives. You are single handedly allowing us to focus 100% on making epic videos. Because of you we'll be able to collaborate with some of the most amazing people in the sailing world and make the most unique content!

$250/moOtoroWe’re speechless and honestly don’t know what we can offer for such a generous pledge. Let’s come up with something together during our 1-on-1 chats. Connect with us regularly, in person or on the phone, to ask us anything and also share your story. We would love to help with boatlife/vanlife advice, tech and camera gear recommendations, video editing tips, or to strategize on how to live a more adventurous life.
