M/V Hot 'n Dirty

M/V Hot ’n Dirty is our channel for documenting our life on a Defever 57' trawler — projects, amazing experiences, beautify scenery, challenges and the cost of keeping a boat like this going.

We’re Brad and Debra with our Lakeland Terrier and boat dog Riley. Welcome to the Hot 'n Dirty Crew!

Target push off from dock is early May 2027, the plan is slow travel — America's Great Loop, ICW, river systems, Great Lakes, Bahamas, Canada, and the stops in between. Part documentary for family, friends and partly so we can go back and watch our adventures when we, well, get older :), part vlog, part how-to. Since I don't already know most of this, we can learn together. We are new to larger vessels, but are excited and committed.

Expect boat projects...more boat projects, beautiful days and hard ones.
