Hey, Boob!

Congratulations on your progress and commitment.

What will you do with that rating, out of curiosity? I recall a
thread
hereabouts a while back about Great Lakes masters and other licenses
which
yielded enormous paychecks.

Meanwhile, however, it's a bit disingenuous (sorry to make your eyes
swim,
but I know you can do it) to suggest that anyone can sail - or get the
kind
of ratings you're going for - without some fairly serious capital.
Just
your 6mo school would buy a lot of sailboats.

As to whether Joe or I could do it, why would I want to? I'm over the
moon
doing what I am, get to meet the most interesting people, do pretty
much
what I want, when I want, and don't have to take any guff from anyone
for 13
months, or another 360 days, or that sort of stuff...

However, if it's your dream, and you're doing it, good on ya!
