I am 52 this year, my days of doing insane adventures involving
extreme physical exertion are past. However, we all need something to
get our adrenalin going. I actually think this is reasonable compared
to some other things. Underwater caving..........TRULY crazy, if you
make any mistake, you die. I was tempted to try it until a good
friend of mine died doing it. Skydiving, almost safe by comparison to
cave diving but I hate falling. Mountaineering, did some when I was
younger until I realize I had lousy balance. Extreme cave exploring,
been there, done that, am now too old. Long distance sailing, done
some, day after day at 4 kts will make you crazy.Am not yet ready to
have a Winnebago where the biggest adventure is a flat tire in rural
Alabama. So.........

I think you need a deck and scuppers. Saw some scupper talk on the
Tolman site, so that's a start. But you need a deck to keep a greenie
from stopping your trip real fast.
IMHO.
