Sailing is a lot of fun! However, sailing boats are also a lot of work and cost a lot of money. So having a friend who loves to sail and has a sail boat is so damn awesome!!! Being that a group of us had a day off and it wasn't raining here in the Pacific North West and there was a tad bit of wind... what else do you do but jump on a boat with a few drinks, food and good people...?
Rodney - the boat dog
As we throw the lines and pushed off the dock, the wind looked promising and we were all happy to get out there. However, as we got out of the harbour, the sails were up and then... the wind died. As a result we were moving at about 2knots and bopping up and down - not really the type of sailing we were hoping for but we will take it. The captain, Hayley whom also lives on this beautiful sail boat, simply loves being on the water. That is kind of my dream at the moment. To live and travel on a sail boat. If I am tired of where I am then I can simply raise the anchor and move to explore different areas...
Would the small living space be a bit too much for some of you?
The captain & a good friend, Hayley

Nice looking boat. Sailing is one of the more delightful human experiences - especially on a friend's boat. Enjoy life!

I got some good advice from an old friend once who always said - "always make friends with people who have boats. Boats are fun but they are also expensive."

Yes I was very lucky to have friends with an traditional sailing ship. To big for them to handle with two so I was always invited to come along. Totally awesome! Made me into a good sailor.
