Default Call for experienced full time cruising (with/as) homeschooledteenagers


Neighbor went aboard his 39' custom with wife and 3 month old kid in
Mexico. 13 years later moved off of boat with 5 children and wife. Kids
decided they wanted to spend high school times with other kids.
Kids were home schooled on the boat and are very well adapted to
life. One is a multiple linguist, Spanish, Japanese, and Polish and I
don't know what else. All have some college and a couple have graduated.
I guess the point is, when push came to shove, the kids wanted to be
on land with their peers at that point in life.
