Sailors often wear tattoos as a badge of honor. Sea folk tended to be superstitious people in the past, and therefore their tattoos had a much deeper meaning.

Why Buy a Sailboat and Wear Clothes?

When you live on a sailboat, clothing is optional.

Expedition Drenched hits some rough seas in this video. After a sleepless night, they get in some great diving and see dolphins off the boat’s bow. And when you own a sailboat, wearing clothes is optional. So crew member, Jordan, sits on the bow, topless, to watch the dolphins exclaiming that living life your way is what’s important.

Living on a sailboat isn’t easy, but what it offers can far outweigh the downsides. Freedom is one of its main benefits. The freedom of exploration on the open sea comes with the shedding of judgment, self-doubt, clothes, and more. Jordan demonstrates this through her fearlessness.
