Boatlife

Exploring the Freedom of Maritime Living

Join the boat life movement and explore a world across the great blue waters.

Boatlife visually explores a nomadic lifestyle on the water filled with new landscapes, cultural experiences, and endless adventures.

Through photography, illustrated maps, itineraries, and background information, this book will inspire your own adventure, while taking you on a journey across bodies of water from The Americas and Europe, to voyages alongside Scandinavia and the Arctic Circle.

Thanks to the ever growing popularity of alternative living and flexible work schemes, the boat life movement is fast on the rise. Whether it be spending the summer on the Mediterranean or a weekend in the Caribbean, people are choosing to escape their stressful life on land for a simpler and more mindful world on the water.

What People Say

"Flick through the pages of Boatlife at your own risk: so dreamy are the scenes captured by Katharina Charpian that you might end up not being satisfied with a mere holiday getaway.(...) The book contains more than just awe-inspiring photography of the Arctic Circle, the Med and the coastlines of the Americas: Charpian has collected maps and itineraries too that will have you planning a life on the ocean wave well beyond your two weeks of annual leave."
