kwaltersmi is on a distinguished road
In their absence...
...has anyone else noticed how the demeanor here on Sailnet changes without frequent posts by Chuckles and Giu? I won't even attempt to characterize the value that each adds to this community, but I'm sure looking forward to their first collective post updating us on their "man date".

imho...It's not just their absence... there are several regulars who have been turned off over recent events and things have been a little slower around here.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

I'm really envious of that trip. I hope Giulietta will come back re-charged and willing to tell us how it all went. Or at least that Chuckles will post a thorough trip report.

Someday I'd like to round that Cape, then on through Gibraltar.

Last I heard, they had to turn around and go back cause Chuckles soiled himself in 25 knots of wind, when the boat was doing 14 knots and heeled over 30˚.
