I have never sailed before, although sailing around the world is one

Having spent weeks at a time (2-5 weeks trips) offshore in small boats
(50-90ft) for 20 years, I have to agree with Loco. Much nicer to make port
every night or couple of days. I would like to take that trip from Clipper
Lines from southeast asia to the med sometime. First class all the way. The
price is around 10k for the whole passage. Half the price of a mac 26.


I would admit that they would probably have better food and
entertainment than what's available on the Mac. Better wine list also maybe.
