Our network

Engine research is easier when it connects with the rest of boat ownership.

Marine Diesel Engines explores engine choices and ownership. Across our other websites you can learn about marine systems, find services and plan your next steps on the water.

The people and the purpose

We’re Gabriel and Kristy, a couple working towards a dream: buy a sailing yacht, move aboard and explore. Australia first, then the Pacific — and, hopefully, further.

As we started learning and researching, useful information was scattered everywhere: sailing schools, clubs, marinas, brokers, equipment and marine services. We wanted a resource that helped us connect it all, so we started building one.

YouSail brings the bigger picture together. Each specialist website explores a different part of the journey. We’re learning too, and creating the resources we wish we’d had at the start.

We want to connect people who sail, people who want to sail, and the people and businesses that make sailing possible.

We’re looking for sponsors.

Help us build these resources and bring our sailing dream closer. We’d love to hear from marine brands, local businesses and people who share our love of life on the water. Find out about sponsorship, products, services and other ways to support the journey.
