About S/V Kingsley
Well, we bought a sailboat to live on. Holy crap. We're new at the living aboard and system maintenance stuff (engine, electrical, toilet!) but feel great about sailing and docking her. We've spent the first few months scrubbing her, had her hauled out for upgrades - painted her bottom, helped fix/upgrade some engine stuff, waxed her, and now we're ready for adventure (I'm counting more cleaning projects as adventure too). We've sailed her numerous times already and our constantly working to get her ship-shape. Follow along with our adventure on the Kingsley blog, or check her specs below!

The Name:
From the Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou:
You think you'll want to change your name?
- Ned?
- No, not the Ned part.
Unless you want to.
I meant your last name. I thought you might like to let me give you mine.
- Ned Zissou.
- Ned Zissou. Exactly.
Or, if you want to, you can change the first part too.
I would have named you Kingsley, if I'd had a say in it.
Kingsley.
