Sailing Family of 7 - Living life aboard SV Bully, our 1983 Vagabond 47!
She was designed by the famous naval architect William Garden, and built in the notorious Taiwanese shipyards of the 70s and 80s. She weighs over 40,000 pounds, and pushes through rough seas like a bully... but that's not why we named her Bully.
Actually, "Bully" is an archaic term used often in old sea shanties, and has a variety of meanings.
Dating back to the 1800s, not only can Bully refer to a sailor who has had a bit too much rum (Bully in the Alley), but it was also used as an adjective -- a term of endearment and fondness towards those you'd find dashing, jovial, and high-spirited (Bully Boys)! So, who better to sail our Bully Crew around, than SV Bully?

Agreed, unless the galley is in the upright position, and the bosun has requested such use from the officer of the mizzen. In the event of a tie, the keel shall decide.
@@SailingSVBully sadly i cant atach picture circa 1750 were drunken sailors use them as weapons. Good old fight... i my self seen scene when drunken foreign tourists threatened traditional ship captain. So captain used it for defence.
Hey Bully Crew! Congratulations!! I remember talking to you about earning Cabo last year! So much has happened in the last 12 months, what a ride! Love watching you all live your dreams, taking each day as it is and sailing away! Epic recording and editing and of course your storytelling is on the spot as always.

Hey! Thank you so much! It’s definitely been an awesome adventure, and only the beginning! Seems like just yesterday we were in Puget Sound, and yet, also feels like a different lifetime. :)
So much of God's beauty in ONE video! The beautiful underwater world was amazing footage! Hey Dude, the sea turtle was my favorite part along with the school of fish. Friendly strangers with a free ride to the restaurante! Keep sharing! Living vicariously through your videos. Stay awesome, Bully crew! Stay awesome!
Miss you, brother! Thanks for following along. That sea turtle was amazing! They’re so fast underwater too! When they decide to take off… poof, 💨 and they’re gone!
