Meanwhile there's this young sailor who goes out with everyone and anyone
every chance he gets. Helps out in the refit yard with no pay just to
learn
how to do boats. I wonder if he'd like to carry on with Se Fjern. What do
you think? Donate for a tax write off? Sell? Keep her for just in case?
Or start some one else off in this wonderful world of sailing?

I would advise you to sell. Do so as soon as possible. You may then
decide to donate the proceeds to charity, if you want to.


Do **NOT** hold onto the old boat for sentimental reasons. However much you
love her at the moment, you will soon forget her once you sail your new
boat.

I was really sad when I put my previous boat on the market. I thought that
I would never get over the loss.

I guess that within 10 minutes of boarding the new boat, my feelings for
the old boat were totally demolished. It was a real shock!
