That's very true John...
One friend of mine, a lifelong sailor, always hated multihulls... went out for sail on a sister ship to my boat, and is currently awaiting delivery of a trimaran... When he called me to tell me he ordered one earlier today, I thought he was playing an April Fool's joke on me.
Some people want a floating condo, with all the goodies of land-based life. i can understand that is what they want... Me, that isn't what I want. I go sailing to get away from the rat race... I'm hoping to sail from Buzzards Bay down to Norfolk, VA via the outside later this year. Unfortunately, the wind will probably be against me... since it tends to come out of the southwest along most of the coast... UGH... but I think it'll be an interesting trip.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
