Default cruising as work

When I am working for a few months, I then want to go cruising because
that is simply different. However, after cruising a couple of weeks,
it begins to seem like work. What happens to long term cruisers, does
it seem like work after awhile?





Since when has sitting around the anchorage and drinking beer and cooking on
the barbeque and leisurely doing boat projects become work? Sounds like you
are trying to cruise on a schedule. Slow down and make a lifestyle out of
it. Otherwise you are no cruising sailor.

And how would Willie-boy, in the Queen of the Bay, know anything about
cruising?

Oh yes! He read a book, didn't he.
Cheers,
