Update: In 2009 I said Mal and I have a five year cruising plan....its now 2014...we should be leaving this year!!!! Anyway, we're not...but we have made some small moves towards it. We now have a Ross 780 trailer sailer that we race, so we are learning the ropes!! We now need to find a keel boat as we have set a date to really make a move...21/05/18...we have much to do!!!!
Current location:
Australia
Destinations visited:
Plenty by plane none by yacht yet!!
Looking to:
Sail the world for a few years after the kids are off our hands...youngest is 15....so 5 years should do it...ha ha. I know...they're never really out of your hair!!
Update - youngest is now almost 20 and we havent left yet....
Hi Marcelle, you'll have plenty of time before you set across ocean...meanwhile you have beautiful waters where you are. Someday, I'd like to go there.
Hey its Erika
Yeah my parents rock! I am very proud of them:)
Mom, Dad, and I are total ocean lovers, while my brother is an space geek (he is V.P. of the Houston Astronomy club), and my sister is a mountains/wilderness nut (she canoes, hikes, camps etc). So we are a colorfully bunch :)
BTW-beautiful painting
Love paintings done in palette and knife. Wish I had the talent...yeah once kids grow up then we get to do alot! Is very nice being somewhat free again! Terri
Marcelle,
My parents sailed around the world on a 37ft Tartan, (Mom wrote a book about it called The Oceans are Waiting By Sharon Ragle).
America is a great place to find a cruising boat, I would think that Oz has a lot too, why not shop in your area? are they more expensive?
Nice to meet you,
Erika
