    Hi, Kate,

    Thanks for the nice comment!  My long dreamt of plans to retire, buy a boat and set off on a cruising life are on hold until some real estate sells. So, what I've just done is rented a home (with dock!) on Lake Lanier near Atlanta, Georgia where I work. It's a fairly large lake, about 100 square miles, but, of course, not the same as being at sea. I'm in the market looking for a 20 footer so I can have some fun this summer. Please let me know if you come this way.

    Thanks Kate..not quite sure what to make of this site.  I love the water and boating...recently ended a relationship where my partner did not like boats...just golf.  Now its my turn to turn to my love of life.  Is this a social site?
