Hi - re kids. We are in the Med. Have a 4 year old and just turned 13 year old. Not met many other liveaboards, loads kids around in holidays though. Another member here has set up a web page for kids, am sure he won't mind me posting link www.cruisingkidsonline.com This is for kids to 'find'...

Thanks for the recent replies. Will look into Alcudia and Torrevieja, both sound good.

Hi Hope to do Tunisia - maybe next winter ? Then onto Sardinia and Corsica ? We are taking it easy just now as I need bit more confidence :o Hubby and son would love to venture off but I still want safety blanket of a base, so just moving little bit down coast if Islands too difficult and...

Thanks for all the replies. We are a 15m monohull so I know it will be pricey everywhere unfortunately ! We are actually in St Carles at the moment getting boat ready. Have been here over winter and want to move bit further down coast and start exploring more. Think Cartagena seems best bet for...

Hi We are planning on doing the Balearics this summer. Husband works 4 weeks on 4 weeks off, so while he is with us on boat am quite happy anchoring or mooring but think I would prefer a marina for me and kids (and dogs !) when he is back at work. Am not confident or experienced enough to sail...

No super yacht yet, still waiting on my lottery numbers coming through ! We have an Oceanis 500 so Crew cabin not too tiny and will not be leaving them everyday and if left then not for hours on end. They are chewers and are :eek: crate trained and quite happy with it. Sleep in it at night and...

We are also taking our dogs on boat this time so we can stay longer. Always done short trips before as we left dogs in kennels or with friends. They are on route at the moment. Am hoping all goes smoothly but if they really hate it won't force them. We have a crew cabin which was previously our...

We got a female instructor to come onto our boat for me and my son. Worked out really well and has the advantage of learning on your own boat. Am speaking as a beginner though :)

Can also recommend shipshape bedding. We got sheets and duvets for all our cabins and really happy with them.

Thanks for this. Jake thinks its great and hopefully can add more people once we start cruising properly ! Great way for like minded kids to find each other.

From what I've read it's only coming back to the UK that you can't bring pets on a private boat. They have to come into UK via recognised port or airport under pet passport system. Think you can take them over to France ok. Am sure someone will correct me if I've read it incorrectly :)

Hi am new here - first post ! We are part time liveaboards if there's such a thing. We are thinking of taking our 2 dogs out to Spain when we return in March. Have bought green grass mat thing for toilet training at sea. Liked advice from a previous poster to use this all time rather than keep...
