The boat was was sold, the new owner had it here in the yard less
than a year ago. I think it's been 7 years ago since they sailed
around . Her name was Mindi, I forget his... He works with a sailing
charity org here, not sure what she's doing now. I never drew the same
impression as you, I think she was an old fashion girl who did not
share such information with the public. I enjoyed her logs.


Thanks for the update. I did follow them pretty closely at the time. It was
quite an undertaking. But,truth to tell, it did not sound to me like they were
having a whole hell of a lot of fun most of the time.


Agreeded, many people think sailing around the globe against the wind
is just one exotic port after another. Quick stops to make love with
the natives or your bottle washing crew. It's a big challenge on a
small boat for two. But I think they will both look back at it with
fond memories. To me it seems as time passes you tend to forget the
bad stuff and treasure the good parts. Unless your telling sea
stories, then you break out that nightmare passage or storm you
survived story.

As for sex, just prurient curiosity about something that you quite rightly
point out is nobody else's business.
