I must completly disagree with your advice,
The boater should follow his dream as did Skip & Lydia.
After all whats so hard about sailing considering all the amazing
technology availible today. Add to this the USCG is just a call away..
you know, sorta like a maritime On-Star. If their passion is there by
all means they should follow their dream. Like the albatross that
soars so will their hearts and soles soar to their destiny... their
dream... their future.. their passion.

I hope BeeRich understands the farcical nature of your post but I doubt it.
He or she sounds clueless to me. Just another self-made victim for the Coast
Guard to practice their rescues on.

Your comments are the exact pie-in-the sky, liberal, feel good sentiments
that are the direct cause of "Red Cloud" being on the bottom of the Gulf
after being abandoned in mildly-rough weather by her
listen-to-nobody-with-experience captain. Funny how thoseliberal feel-good
sentiments are so quickly abandoned when one becomes very frightened of
losing one's life.

But, no matter what you say or do there is a certain group of ignorant,
stubborn losers who refuse to listen to sensible advice and *feel* they can
buck the odds. Yah, right! May their bones rest in peace on the sea bottom.
