Full-Time Nomads the Ups and Downs

Alli and Gaylen are the Sail Bums, a musical duo from Maine who lives on their 37-foot Endeavour sailboat. They are interviewed in this podcast by Ethan.
On their boat, it is possible to record an album of music, and Alli and Gaylen do just that.
Originally from Maine, they are now nomads on the eastern seaboard. They share advice to both land and sea nomads about the lifestyle and what it takes to run a business living this type of life.
