Only a sailor would understand.

No sailor get's overly romantic about the roots of sailing. It just wasn't
the
case. It was a brutal life. Our version is a joke compared to "real"
sailors.
As I said before, you dishonor the spirit of sailing by attempting to rate
it,
rank it or in any way classify it in some shallow elitist manner.
I'm truly dissapointed in this shallow and openly materialistic view of
one of
the oldest and most dangerous professions.
It's no wonder that I've eclipsed most of you already.
