Sucks to be you right now. Sorry. Just heard from a friend that
found out his parents and kids had screwed up so much that
his cruising hopes are pretty much dashed forever. This after
buying and outfitting a nice boat for the past 3 years.

What a year. After a lousy spring and 1st half of the summer..with my
wife
home recovering from an operation, my mom not feeling well and my cat
tore
up by the neighbours in a fight. I was counting on the last half of
August
and September for some travelling and sailing on my 'new' Sandpiper 565.
Mail came today and there was a jury duty summons for our provincial
Supreme
Court. I have to make myself available for the month of September.
I wonder if 'a need for sailing' is good enough excuse to be released?
