WELCOME!

Join Schooner Kiva to celebrate the joys and quirks of the liveaboard & cruising lifestyle!

ABOUT US

The crew of Schooner Kiva welcomes you aboard to join in our adventures and travels! She is our home and our gateway to the world.

My husband Neal has lived on the ocean for 25+ years, and I (Melanie) joined him in 2005. The ocean is the only home Decker has ever known. We live off-grid year-round on board with our son Decker and our dog Oakley.

Join us on YouTube as we fix up our home and share with you some of our hard earned knowledge.
