Inches from disaster: One of the many adventure stories when a couple live their dream on the ocean

Ipswich Today

You've heard of a tree change, or even a sea change. But what a about a sea change actually living on the sea? Nine years ago long-term Ipswich residents Rob and Karen Oberg sold the family home to take an 18,000 nautical mile blue water journey to the Mediterranean and UK. Their story is one of most amazing adventures you'll hear, including a hair-raising near miss closer to home that was inches from disaster. Published: 30 November 2020.
