Michel- Send me your snail mail address in the private message posting area of this website, I have a few extra copies and will be happy to send you one, gratis!
It's one helluva well-written coasting story, based on a boat much like your own beloved "Mari-Bell", well suited to explorations "where the deep keels dare not venture"!

Re: Racing vs Cruising
don't get me wrong. I still enjoy competition. I am hoping to do the Everglades challenge in 2017.. I will probably use CLC's Expedition Wherry for it.. but at age 46, I know I will not be aiming for a podium finish, but instead just a finish

Re: Racing vs Cruising
You are still very capable at 71, I'm sure of it! But.... At 91, you would maybe have to be careful about stepping in the right boat at the dock!...I'm 71. I would just be aiming for a start!!!

Good grief Michel, you not only are an accomplished film maker and guitarist but you sound remarkably like Rod Stewart!!!
