Welcome Aboard
Hi, I’m Rene, a 60-something adventurer embracing my second childhood and presently living the dream on land and soon on the water!
What started as a boatbuilding “hobby” has grown into a lifestyle of adventure, exploration, and connection. This page is rapidly expanding and will be dedicated to:
- Building my dream boats, including my 15′ Panga build and new hybrid houseboat project, and sharing every step of the journey on video.
- Soon we’ll be experiencing life on the water; from ocean and freshwater fishing to boating, ice fishing, and exploring new places.
- Meeting fellow boat enthusiasts, sharing stories, and interviewing builders, craftsmen, and adventurers.
- Enjoying life aboard and ashore, with my co-captain Raluca by my side, and making the most of every moment.
Whether I’m crafting a houseboat, casting a lobster trap, enjoying the freedom of the open water or just acting a little dinghy, this channel is all about living my dream—and hopefully inspiring you to live yours too.

Who the Heck Are Rene & Ralu & Why Should You Watch Them?
About us: Raluca and I have written over 150 books and courses in our “Day Jobs” and have been teaching about the mind, programming, and quantum physics for over 30 years.
We’re Mind Coaches with a nautical twist dedicated to teaching the many secrets of what makes people tick.
In my twilight years we’ve decided on a course correction and are working towards a new life of traveling, nautical adventures and having fun!
“It’s Great being kids again!”
Our “Day Job” has given us the ability to do what we want; when we want and we’d like to give you that same opportunity. Download my 340 page “Income Ahoy” workbook so you can create a self-sufficient life as an on board boater or just an off-grid “land-lover” if you prefer.
We look forward to growing with you in the days and years to come.
Happy Sailing
Cap’n Rene & Ralu 🙂
