MOST OF US CAN FIND WAYS TO GET MORE MONEY, BUT NONE OF US CAN GET MORE TIME. TO GO CRUISING IS TO CHOOSE TIME OVER MONEY


IT IS A DIFFICULT DECISION TO GIVE UP CONTENTMENT FOR UNCERTAINTY, BUT IF YOU DON'T, YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER BE AS FULL AS IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN

We are committed now to take off and go sailing so we are cleaning out our basement which was a catch all. Kids things our things ect. Its just gota go ya know. It is taking time but we are gaining on it and we are both feeling much happier.

Are you or will you be in the Caribbean in the winter of 2009? Do you have advice on destinations or precautions? Want to meet up with fellow sailors that are close by? If so, then you should join and share your experiences!

Nice footage! I read the book during our Atlantic crossing and have had the movie in my Amazon wish list for 7 years! Thing is that I don't own a VHS player anymore and I haven't been able to find it on DVD yet.... :-(
