Mj Sailing bio

Well known sailing YouTubers Matt and Jessica Johnson grew up near the shores of Lake Michigan and loved to wander out in the water and then opted for an adventure of a lifetime. Matt & Jessica Johnson’s sailing page reveals that they identify as a couple of Michiganders (Grand Rapids) who had grown up without ever setting foot aboard a sailboat. However, at a point in life, the pair decided to take it up as a hobby one summer in 2008 when we had nothing better to do.  

Early Life and Career

For the span Matt and Jessica Johnson had been together, Jessica has seen Matt go through phases of different hobbies/obsessions ranging from rally cars to watches and real estate. Later, sailing became the latest and hopefully permanent one, which started in the late summer of 2007 while on the shores of Lake Michigan.  

Matt continued to look at the sailboats on the water and commented on how he’d like to try that someday. The pair would spend time gazing longingly at the boats dotting the horizon. Matt’s newest engrossment started with buying property in northern Michigan and building a small pod home or prefabricated cabin. The pair had been searching for properties and cabin designs.

They narrowed it down to a few designs and certain locations. But at a point, Matt questioned himself and Jessica whether it would be nice to invest in a piece of property or spend the money to get a sailboat. That was when the couple decided that they would rather spend their summers on the water with constant activity and enjoyment than every other weekend in a 400 sq ft cabin.

In August 2008, the pair drove about 45 minutes south to Battle Creek to see a 1998 Hunter 240 and found it in pretty good condition. The great beginner boat was available at an affordable rate. They decided to put an offer on the Hunter, and it was accepted.

Within a week of taking the boat up to Muskegon, they had purchased a mooring at Torresen Marine. They had started loving the sport of sailing on Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan. The pair purchased a new (to us) Sabre 34 Targa in January 2010 and prepped themselves to go cruising.

The duo sold their house in June of 2011 and moved into Matt’s mom’s and stepdad’s house. 

Both quit their jobs, sold cars, and got ready to start a cruising life. The pair were finally ready to depart Muskegon on the west coast of Lake Michigan and start the adventure. The duo have sailed down the east coast of the US, spent time in the Bahamas, Cuba, and Central America, and crossed the Atlantic twice in 2014!

In Indiantown, FL, they got their eyes on a 37 ft aluminum boat and then decided to go ahead with rebuilding this new boat and getting her ready to cruise. Back in 2012, the pair traded what was the popular lifestyle at the time of ‘The American Dream’; home, our careers, and consistency, for a life less ventured. 

Mj Sailing Personal Life: Family and Relationship

Regarding Mj Sailing family and parents, it can be said thatJessica’s parents had both been born and raised in West Michigan but had been doing a lot of traveling for her dad’s work.

Back in 2005, the family moved to Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, where Mj Sailing Jessica father was in charge of a new factory. On a visit to see them in 2007, Matt and Jessica fell in love with world traveling and a different way of living, which probably led to our decision to take this trip.

Jessica’s dad finished work with that company and was moved to North Carolina for a new job. After a few months and a bad economy, that branch was closed, and her dad was moved through the same company to their current location in Mesa, AZ. Matt and Jessica try to see Jessica’s parents wherever they may be living at least once a year. It’s always a treat when Jessica’s parents come back to Michigan for one week in the summer.  

Regarding Mj Sailing girlfriend and wife, it can be said that Matt is Jessica’s husband and has been continuing their journey of voyaging around the globe.
