| About The Video |
We have compiled hundreds of hours of video from people out there. We also have numerous interviews with cruisers from Florida to the Bahamas. Some of the clips are rough, hand-held, at sea imagery. We weren't interested in trying to dazzle anyone with a plasticized, artificial beauty - the reality itself is beautiful. Combined with all of that is information on how people were able to cut free the docklines - and how they handled things such as weather and other unplanned events. Being Out There is a realistic - and exciting - view of what it is like for most people who cruise. There are no million dollar yachts but rather more modest boats - from Hunters to Tayanas - that are out there making dreams come true for those who sail them. Being Out There is for anyone planning to cruise or just dreaming about it. For those who have cruised in the past, we hope the video will bring back fond memories - and perhaps fire the spark to help you get out there again. Being Out There is also the perfect gift for the reluctant spouse or partner. The imagery and great people are sure to motivate anyone to untie the docklines and seek the freedom that lies over the horizon. It also includes a very good reason to never - ever - anchor in Nassau... Click Here To Order Your Copy!

Being Out There isn't a "how-to" video, per se. We created the video to show what it is like actually being out there. We wanted to show what the people are like, what everyday life is like - basically, what an incredible experience cruising is.
