Thanks Sailchick, your correct that I don't have much experience sailing, I have been out a couple times when I was quite young. I also have a terrible memory from boat diving outside of Monterey where my stomach decided it was best if I stayed floating in the frigid water than climb back on board (I suspect this was a relatively tame ocean condition). So I should really get some more time/experience before setting out on something big.

I guess the longing stems more for the travel then the actual experience of sailing which as you have noted I really can't have any opinion on yet. I love seeing new places and cultures and I despise forms of transport that consume natural resources.

I love biking but for long distance sailing appears to be the best method. So I can really only say that I hope from my planned future experience that the "longing" or desire can become a love>


I'll check out the CG Aux, thanks for that tip John.

Charlie as has been noted I need some local experience before setting out on anything. Also I'm not thinking about leaving until December, but thanks for the offer.
