YACHT TOUR | Living Aboard a Classic 78-foot Sailing Schooner
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.ย. 2023
- Welcome aboard, KELPIE, a 78 foot gaff-rigged sailing schooner that sits a quarter mile off the coast of Sag Harbor, New York. Capt. Shannon Carleton is KELPIE'S owner and skipper, having operated and lived on boats most of her life. Shannon lives aboard this yacht and couldn't imagine life any other way.
She’s called KELPIE, the Scots name given to a shape-shifting water spirit inhabiting the lochs and pools of Scotland. Many myths tell the story of beautiful and beguiling maidens or mermaids that are able to change form into water horses. Kelpies were most often friendly and benevolent, but fairytales about them also served a practical purpose in keeping children away from stretches of water, and warning young women to be wary of handsome strangers.
Designed by Francis Sweisguth and built at the Harvey Gamage Shipyard in 1928 in Maine, KELPIE is a 78.8ft traditional gaff-rigged schooner once employed by the U.S. Coast Guard to hunt German U-Boats during WWII.

Oh my goodness…..this boat is right out of a Ralph Lauren dream!! Just gorgeous!!! I really admire Captain Shannon. She is quite an adventurous soul, and also very disciplined to live so minimally. She does it with great style!!! 👍💕💃❤️
I’m blown away with elegance that Captain Shannon lives every day of her life. Such an enjoyable video.
Elegance is right! 👌🏻
What an unusual and interesting way of living! Beautiful!Thanks for the tour😊
😂🤣😂yes as long as no one touches actually anything 🤣😂🤣🤯! Omg this cracked me up all the way through! kelpies builder is rolling in his grave! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 I can’t!
@@adrenazanetti3660 The most "spic and span" boat I've ever seen! Quite unique, everything, including Captain Shannon, matching the environment of the Hamptons.
An incredibly beautiful & elegant yacht… She clearly is extremely passionate about what she does. Good on her!❤
I admire her fierce independence. Kelpie is sublime.
Pure class!
Very Ralph Lauren aesthetic to me. Love it!
Eventually seeing a boat that looks like a cozy home and not a stiff hotel, yet classy. It's beautiful, warm and welcoming and does not scream money!!
I think this is the only Homeworthy video I ever watched all the way to the end. Kelpie is a beautiful boat with a well-spoken captain.
So happy for this homeowner! She has found that thing that she is passionate about. Good for her!
Wow! Such a beautiful and unique home! And Shannon was such an elegant hostess! I would love to spend a day on that fabulous schooner! Thank you for a wonderful tour!
I have sailed with my dad since I was a little kid (and I’m in my 70s now). This boat is absolutely beautiful and even now I would love to be able to live this life! Kudos to this enterprising young woman for pursuing her dream.
Wow... When you love what you do.. its not work , its a privilege... Amazing...
Your schooner is absolutely gorgeous!!! How heavenly to live aboard such a treasure!!! Your tastes are impeccable and I love the dark woods with the whites! It’s so fresh and crisp!!! Absolutely lovely!!! ⚓️🪸🐚🐟
Love this video! Thank you, Homeworthy, for thinking outside the box in bringing us unique and different homesteads to experience, explore and enjoy!
Beautiful yacht. Great layout. Very romantic indeed. I can feel her soul from here watching this tour. thank you Capt for this tour.. stay safe
Wow she is living her dream. How lucky is she. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Labor Day To Everyone. Beautiful Boat.
What a fabulous old Hollywood vibe woman. Really enjoyed this video. What a lifestyle to envy.
Now that was cool! Thank you for the variety Homeworthy and thank you Captain!
Wow! Wow! Wow! I just love it! Such an elegant and imaginative way to live indeed. Is there anything more romantic than this kind of life? The captain is as beautiful and elegant as her boat.
You just said exactly what I was thinking all along while watching this video. Beautifully stated.
I loved this home tour and would love to see more unique spaces from Homeworthy ❤
This is the first boat I have ever really liked. I can feel that she is something special .I cant explain it but I feel drawn to her and I don't even like the ocean. The captain is beautiful and she feels as timeless as the boat, you get a feeling that she and that boat will always be together.
A reminder that 'less, but better' can be applied to almost any aspect of life. An inspiring sailboat, and a lifestyle to match, to say the least.
Well done. 🍸
Elegant, beautifully made old boat.
Two elegant ladies! Kelpie is in superb condition and beautifully appointed.
What a stunning sailing yacht. It is refreshing to see someone devoted to preserving her.
Lovely, classy, thoughtful, tasteful, and alluring... thank you, Homeworthy! ⛵
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for having us aboard Kelpie.
Absolutely stunning.
And a nice looking yacht, too.
In all seriousness, it is a real pleasure to see a Captain and Owner take such pride in her remarkable vessel. Captain Shannon has much to be proud of. Wishing her a fair wind and following sea!
Loved to hear the history of warrior schooner Kelpie, especially fond of her Scottish name. Beautiful, cheers to Captain Shannon.
Thank you Homeworthy what a difference you are showcasing. I have to say I enjoyed every minute and hope you will do more like this.
Perfection
Down to every detail.
Wooden ship with its history
A true Classic .
My Uncle is a Master craftsman and has finished and upkeeps the wood detailing on Yachts .
She is BEAUTIFUL.
Soul of the sea. Passion.
Thank you for bringing us on Board.
This takes working from home to a whole new level
Just wow. A truly beautiful schooner. I now have an insight into what draws people to fall in love and live on these exquisite vintage vessels. The history of her from commissioning to now is interesting. Her steward/captain is the most inspiring woman.
What a lovely thing to do what you love where you love and feel peace all the time
Wow, what a magical thing. Loved this episode, thank you Homeworthy and Shannon!
Everything has been made with high test and beauty,well organised and maintained!One of the best samples! This is a case where the amazing yacht meet perfect management and most important-love of her nice owner!
By far one of the BEST Homeworthy’s I have ever seen! What a great job! That boat she’s a beauty!
This is one fantastic yacht.
Thank you for the viewing
What an amazing story. That schooner is beautiful!!! I'm sure the charter cruises are wonderful. Lots of attention to detail. Thanks so much for sharing.
A Kelpie is a Australian cattle dog that rounds up cattle and sheep . They are so important to farmers here and they go for high prices , especially a good clever dog - one sold for A$49,000 - about US$33,000.
Your schooner is just beautiful and maybe you might be tempted one day to bring her down to Australia !! :)
Amazing boat. Love that its vintage , definitely a head turner sailing past. And I live near the kelpies in Stirling so love the name of her.
Absolutely sublime. What a wonderful way to live!
That was very enjoyable. Elegante'
Interesting, so different, such a unique experience.
Wow, this is such an inspiring way of living life.
What a dream ! After a cruise from hell where the cruise ship was caught in the tail end of a hurricane, we arrived in Bermuda. While walking the Bay Area the most beautiful sailboat was docked and inviting people to tour the island. I could not resist even after being sick. No one wanted to go and still I convinced my partner to get on board. The experience had me dreaming of living on a sailboat. It is so incredible that people are living this dream. Blessings to you! I have never gotten seasick on a wooden sailboats.
Oh my gosh! Christmas is here again and this time christmas is here again and this time its on a gorgeous yacht. I'm planning my holiday from South Africa to the states next year❤✨
Very poised woman and classier then another couple I follow their trips as live aboard full time. I was beginning to think only casual clothes is the normal for live aboard. Well done!
Beautiful classic schooner. Eye catching lines. The coffee set was very nice and the Scottish blankets are amazing as well and the owner is shockingly beautiful. Shes definitely blessed.
Amazing this women lives in the 1900's still in 2024. Both she and kelpie are very elegant.
Shannon, you are living my dream life!! Kelpie is absolutely gorgeous!
Beautiful but there is no way possible that I could live on this boat year round.
😂 ok?
Life on the boat like this one is a wonderful experience and passion, I'm glad I know how it feels to enjoy freedom on the sea, amazing feeling.
So relaxing and well done! This is such a unique way to live since I live on a Farm! I cant even imagine how wonderful it would be to wake up to the sea! I love this video! Thank you for bringing it to us!!!
Where is the dog doing his "business"?
That is exactly what I was thinking and the lack of hot water for showering and laundry
So classy!
Probably my favorite ❤
Love it, Since watching below deck I’ve become obsessed with all yacht things 😎
Love all the wood working. So beautiful 💕
❤got happy just watching..love boats and lived on one in key west and best memories ever
Absolutely beautiful boat and I could totally see myself living like this.
The Hamptons and Charleston, or "Chucktown" what a life...on Kewpie.
Loved the episode 💙 Very interesting and different 💖
A loved and cherished home 🥰 ⛵️
One classy lady and yacht.
Big surprise🤩
Dreamy. As a captain wife I wonder about living on the ocean 🩵🩵🩵
Truly beautiful and motivating tour!
I love sailing and I love this boat. It is beautiful and it’s elegant. I think this chick is completely loaded to be able to pull this off. I love the white and white and white and very classic and decor such as the tea service, the crystal and the candles. Very nice
Such a beautiful boat and really wonderful video! So great to watch, loved every minute! 🥰
What a beautiful home you've made for yourself. I'm going to ask perhaps a dumb but obvious question. Where does your sweet pup go potty? I assume it eventually ends up in the sea but before that???😁😁😁 Be safe at sea and Bon Voyage!
I had a lot of questions, and that was one of them!
Impeccable!
Sounds like a dream💖
Inspiring! Absolutely inspiring.
Interesting lifestyle. Thank you for sharing. Would love to see more unique homes.
Beautiful… love it! 🦋🩵
Great video. Thx. What a beauty! And the girl is nice too.
absolute beautiful .. this is the kinda boat I'd dream of living on as well
Gorgeous boat
So chic!
Wow what an amazing ship. I would love to work and sail on this beauty full time. What a beauty.
Just gorgeous in every way
So incredible
Beautiful... so many details to maintain, it must be frustrating and difficult to do the research and find people to take care of it properly.
Brilliant
Did I miss the bathroom?
She did not show it. Wonder about hot water for showers and dog getting to relieve itself too.
*Immediately goes to book a charter*
I love this boat
Fair Winds Kelpie...
⛵.
Thank you..
Curious to see what the head looks like.
Kind of need to know where the dog goes the bathroom?
I thought the same thing and when she mentioned no lights or hot water, was another thing. Is there only one head (bathroom) for all crew, another drawback. How is al of the white clothing and bedding laundered, are they actually in a marina and docked to gain access to facilities and walking her dog to relieve itself. Very cramped quarters. We had a 32 foot yacht but kept at a marina not offshore and we had it hooked up to a generator for electricity. How would her toilet work and showering
Love the part where she do the maintenance by herself.
I’m 2.5 mins in and the only thing I can focus on is ‘But where does the dog poop?’
Thank you very much to show us such beautiful boat. Shes gorgeous. Any possibilities to sail with? Im a modest sailor from Switzerland 🇨🇭..👋😀🌹⛵️🇨🇭
John Alden's Mohawk also served as a sub hunter; the topmasts were removed and a sort of doghouse added around the helm. She was built in 1927. Not quite as grand as Kelpie though.

Looks rich
Beautiful boat but maintenance and upkeep on a 100yr old boat would put this out of reach to all but the very rich!
