OK, I have an idea. Since the stakes are really high, is there a way that you and the family could arrange an offshore charter/trip together for a few weeks? I'm thinking that being out of sight of land for a while might give you more information about how much you and the family really like it. If daysailing is the family's only reference point, they could be in for a big surprise, either pleasant or not so much. Just a thought.

In reference to an earlier poster, this is definitely a "quality problem". "Hmmm... keep my idyllic life or swap for another idyllic life."
