I guess I have to admit it, I am a failure at cruising. With my son, I
did manage to get from Carabelle in N. FL to Sarasota in three seperate

Heck, you hardly have gotten started! As with anything, practice,
practice, practice!

Used to be that I'd be thinking about work the whole trip, up to a
couple of weeks. After a decade or two of mostly weekend trips, work
disappears as we leave the dock, sometimes on the car ride.

Others like the immersion technique, months at a time. We haven't had
the luxury.

You will kick yourself if you don't do what you can when you can. (cf
the Twain quote elsewhere in the thread.)
