How many people considering this life actually do it with the intention of truly sailing indefinitely?
I really enjoyed that book.

It seems like, of people cruising indefinitely, there are two camps of indefinitely:
1) until you can't physically or die
and/or
2) until it is no longer fun

We fall into category #2 which, if we keep at it long enough, could turn into category #1. I have a hard time imagining that it will stay fun for a half century (should I be so lucky to have that much life left) so I imagine that we won't get to #1...but who knows.
