Skippy seems to make Wi-Fi his main concern when visiting ports of call.

To me this seems rather pitiful.


To those of us with friends, family and business interests, being able
to keep in touch with the world has its advantages.

For you, perhaps not so much.




Has its advantages to the family, business interests and your perceived

Is detrimental to voyaging and the voyaging lifestyle because it involves
compromise. But, then again, yours is a motorboat. You will never qualify as
a voyager/cruiser. Your umbilical cord is much shorter than Skippy's.
