Your life, just like your boats, is a series of stepping stones.
This makes me wonder if you know what "stepping stone" really means!
Everyone's
life is a series of stepping stones.
Absoutely correct.
However, in your case, the stepping stones seem to be placed very close to
each other.
It's called evolution and progression. Yap
all you like about "liking" that Beneteau, but you know it's a cheap boat
compared to many. One day you may have better. Perhaps you're already
planning
for a nicer boat one day. If not, then you're missing what the combination
of
youth and sailing different boats can offer.
Old age is for settling down with "the" boat.
Now..tell us, my boy, will you ever have a better boat?
I really don't think that I will ever have a better boat. I like speed and
performance. However, I also like comfort. Therein lies my problem.
Every boat that I see that is more comfortable, is also slower.
As you can see, quality doesn't really come into the equation.
I suspect that my next boat will be more "comfortable" than my present boat.
It will also be bigger. I really hope that it will be faster. I'm not
sure that it has been built yet.
On the other hand, your next boat won't be difficult to find. It just needs
to be better than a 1970's C&C 32.
Regards
Donal
