Wow, I need to express my thought better some times. I was only upset that the book was saying you need so much money to cruise. I don't tell others what to do only try to give advise if asked. By-the-way my gelcoat may be faded but it is always waxed and looks pretty good. I love all sailboats and man are some of yours nice. Live and let live. No hard feelings to all you rich guys
