The Menopausal Mariner

Me (Sam) Being happy. With alcohol. And a cigar (we were in Havana).

Bikini clad lovelies vs me

If you came here looking for a bikini clad lovely simultaneously doing yoga on a boat whilst eating an organic mango look away now. I am 47, menopausal, grumpy, have cellulite and don’t care. Welcome to my blog.

My husband Lee and I have recently retired from the military and now live onboard our Hunter Legend 41 “Diablito” with our dog Franco in Port Solent. We come from Emsworth on the South Coast of England, have just rented our house out, are sorting out the final bits on the boat and haemorrhaging money like there is no tomorrow before we set sail in around 3 weeks time. Our plan is to Winter in the Canaries for some sun and then see where the winds take us. Apart from this we have no plans and no end date.

You are most welcome to join us on our travels. I am hoping this will be as an accurate reflection as possible of what our life will be like including the highs and the lows, so if this is your dream, if you are vaguely interested, stumbled across this late at night while trying to get to sleep, want to know what living on board a boat is really like or just want to hear me moan about nothing then stay tuned. And I promise; no bikini clad lovelies. Just me with my cellulite and a glass of something alcoholic, my very tolerant husband and a dog who hates everyone.
