Taking the Leap of faith!

Family of 7 the Manzano family sell it all and take a leap of faith to go sailing! Jack Andrys interviewed Paul Manzano to learn how they did it!

Here is what they say:

 

About

We are a family of seven setting out on an incredible adventure to sail around the world and explore our God’s amazing creation.  We are from the beautiful Carson Valley in the state of Nevada.

So we sold our 5,400 square foot house that we spent years remodeling and gave away 95% of our stuff.

We saved some home décor and family mementos and photos. That’s about it.

We are temporarily leaving our beloved friends and family, and our cat and dog. We can’t imagine not coming back home to Nevada.  We are very sad about this but very excited to have the chance to go out and see new places and meet new people.

We will be purchasing a sailboat in the Mediterranean Sea, Turkey to be exact. We are so excited to see the boat in person and start making our new home on the water.  How cool is it going to be to take our home wherever we want to go?

Our friends and family have been very supportive of our decision and have helped us get to this point in so many ways.  Thank you friends and family! We love you all so much! It is not easy to leave all of you for such a long time.

We hope to use this website as a way for you to follow us on our journey and to keep in touch.  We are unsure how much access we will have to internet so please be patient as we get stated. Please don’t hesitate to write to us and keep us updated on you too!

Franz,

I did an interview at MDR, feel free to use it, Paul and his family know that we recorded this for you to use for the podcast if you want to.

Paul is a great guy and his family reflect that, we have made a lasting friendship with the Manzano’s and the Andrys here at Marina di Ragusa.

Leap of faith Mrs Chippy

Beware of maritimedocumantation.us

In a previous podcast I talk about https://maritimedocumentation.us/ which is a scam to dupe you into paying about 3 times the cost to renew your coast guard documentation. Here are the details to this company Be aware and don’t get sucked in like I was. If you were make the proper complaints to its ISP godaddy and the federal trade commission https://www.ftc.gov/

Be sure you listen to that episode here is the link Maritimeducumentation.us scam
