An adventurous retired couple chooses 51 cruises over traditional retirement. Join their incredible journey at sea!
Retirement takes an unconventional turn as this married couple convinced that life at sea is more economical than residing in a retirement home, embarks on 51 consecutive cruises.
In June of last year, Marty and Jess Ansen began their extraordinary journey on the Coral Princess. Throughout the past 18 months, they’ve embraced a life filled with dancing, fine dining, forging enduring friendships, and traversing the globe.

In a whimsical turn, they jestingly remark that they “extend a warm welcome to the captains” instead of the usual protocol. Originating from Australia, Marty and Jess have earned a certain level of fame among their fellow passengers, as attested by manager Ren van Rooyen. Even travelers embarking on shorter cruises make special requests to meet this dynamic duo, whose inspirational journey has enraptured folks back home for the last 455 days.
Marty humorously suggests that their extended stay on a cruise ship might be necessary since they’ve become so accustomed to the maritime lifestyle that they’ve forgotten basic tasks like making a bed or cooking a meal, according to A Current Affair.
