Sailing With Infants?


I know this is probably too old for someone to have a look at this, but sailing with babies is WONDERFUL. They sleep most of the time, and when they awake, they are in a most happy mood. Even the simple hammocks they make for hanging food stuffs and such in the saloon area is great for them, providing they are not too heavy. If you have enough room, snuggling them in their portacrib with pillows or towels is lovely (nothing around the face, of course!!).

Have sailed with many and loved each of them. They wake up so happy - and I can''t help but think it is a better cure for colic than the old car drive or washing machine. So much easier to appease than the teenagers!!

If you do read this - best of luck to you and your infant! Please enjoy sailing with them! Nothing looks as sweet as a peaceful baby''s face, and that is often acheived by sailing!
