You are 100 percent correct! I am on my way soon, very soon.

Have a memoriable voyage capt, if you did not kill yourself last night
on your cocain and champane binge.

A few words of encouragement from the Ancient mariner.

Alone, alone, all, all alone;
Alone on a wide, wide sea.

You are right Neal. It is hard to break the
shore bonds and go. It takes money, a good
boat, skill, guts, and either an understanding
woman or the resolve to go anyway.

You have to have nearly all of these to do it.
The payoff is great. Island hopping in the
Caribbean has to be the best lifestyle of all.

A friend of mine's wife didn't want to go.
Now he has a girlfriend who loves his boat and
is eager to go. He has the right attitude, make
it happen while you can.

Another fellow I know waited until he was 65 and
had heart problems to decide to go. He only
sailed his boat a few times before having a heart
attack and dying. Don't wait--do it soon! Do it
now!

It is better to go right away, than to wait for a
better boat or better circumstances. The time to
start having fun is now.

NONE of you fools are cruising sailors and
none of you will ever be because you don't
have the balls or the inclination. You'd rather
be tied up at your docks or ensconced in your
hovels ashore sucking up to your women who
won't let you quit your jobs and go cruising.

It's as simple as that. You are all slaves to
your life ashore and even if you weren't
you would find another excuse, any excuse
to not go cruising, because you are afraid
and not skilled enough and don't have a
boat that can handle it.
