Expect some good days on 36 ft sailboat, and be prepared for some less favorable weather (http://tv-antenna.com/heavy-seas/) :x :x :fear:

Sounds great, and if a tanker can handle that.........nfknway - so should your yacht -

After we (Yes, thats means you too ! )

Cleaned, polished and waxed the hull and cabin
Cleaned the old antifouling, and applied a new coat
Cleaned and repaired the sails
Overhauled the engine
Checked standing & running rigging
Cleaned the tanks
Checked the electric circuit
Overhauled the toilet
Bought new maps
Provisioned,

Then we can cast off.

When are you coming for the cleaning? :rolleyes:

A word of warning to all those contemplating life on the high seas under Yogi(Literally :rolleyes: ) I was reading my poetry book this afternoon, as one does, and I came across this piece.


The boy stood on the burning deck
His A*se was to the mast
He would not budge a bloody inch
Till Captain Yogi passed
But Yogi is cunning man
He threw the boy a parcel
When boy bent down to pick it up
Captain Yogi was up his A*ole.
