Not true! Time spent sailing doesn't count againt your life.

For most, you included, sailing is a few hours escape from life. It is far
from being life itself as is an arcade game or some other distraction.

What moment sums up your life?


I don't speak for "most," only for myself... It is no escape. It is
life. The alternative is not worth considering. You've been away from
it too long.

There are plenty of alternatives. Some are even considered superior to
sailing by others.

For me for now it is an escape, something for "fun".

I haven't got my boat in the water yet this year. Damn I
miss her. But, I've gone to a lot of picnics and get
togethers that I've missed, and been missed at, the last
few years. Hooked back up with my old riding buddies too,
what a blast. Went on a cruise with friends. Did some long
overdue home improvements.

I guess my point is that there's more to life than sailing.

That said , I can't wait to get back out on the water.
