zakynthos is on a distinguished road
Thanks to both of you for the encouragement.
Canmaraderie, I presently live in Brussels but will be moving back to Canada at some point. My preferred sailing grounds would be Greece and although my wife would be on board I would be looking at singlehandling with some help at the helm. I know that it will be important for both of us to feel comfortable so I'm not getting too settled on the idea until I see how she feels on the water as well.
I see owning a boat not as a liveaboard proposition but more of a permanently available option for variable length trips.
It's encouraging to hear of couples in their seventies still sailing and, Punjabi, of others in my age group learning the ropes. Thanks.
