Boat Name

S/V Salty Mermaid

Crew Members

Austin Jensen (age 35)

Niki Jensen (age 34)

They are from Arizona but have lived in Florida.

The Boat

I’m not sure what their yacht was but it seemed like a Hunter.

The Accident

First, they got a hole in their boat (after hitting a drawbridge) so they headed to the docks to have it lifted out by crane.

This part was no problem, but they then needed another lift crane to get the mast off.

Unfortunately, the crane toppled over and destroyed their boat (and the crane) which marked the end of their YouTube channel.

Fortunately, they had insurance coverage that covered the boat.

Today in 2023

Niki Jensen has become a massive social media influencer on Instagram:

Together with Austin, they own Warrior Company.

Past Cruising

Before the accident, they had only briefly sailed in US waters.

Affording It

They both worked hard for several years to purchase their boat.

Net Worth

Austin and Niki Jensen has a net worth of $570,000 based on their business income. Today they’re located in Arizona and own two successful businesses.

Making Loot

They made money through:

➜ Ads running on their YouTube

➜ Their Patreon subscribers

They were aspiring to make some money from their channel, but after the boat accident, they decided to crate their own eCommerce brands.

Key Takeaways

What can we learn?

➜ Don’t let others judge you

And of course, find the perfect partner!
